No one present had expected that such a situation would occur in Konoha's Chuunin Selection Examination.
There are 161 candidates for this Chunin Exam, and 151 candidates for Konoha Village. There are 51 genin teams in total.
The genin team referred to included elites from wealthy families such as Hinata, Uchiha, Sarutobi, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Nara, Inuzuka, and Aburame, but the record in the second exam was not broken by Konoha ninjas.
Although the Uzumaki clan is an ally of Konoha, they are ultimately separated from Konoha.
Kimimaro and Shiro both looked to be about eight or nine years old, and they were the two youngest among all the candidates for this reference. I originally thought that Shiroha took them to take the exam just for practice. After all, the youngest genin in Konoha's competition The young Uchiha Itachi is also ten years old this year, while the other members of the genin team are generally over twelve years old, and there are even genin in their twenties.
Unfortunately, talent is often a huge gap that cannot be erased by time and age.
Now it seems that Bai Yu took Kimimaro and Bai Lai to take the exam not to practice, but to cause trouble.
Especially the ninja who passed immediately after him turned out to be from a little-known shinobi village, Hoshigakure.
After the incident half a year ago, all forces in the ninja world have figured out the relationship between Bai Yu and the Kingdom of Ghosts.
Star Hidden Village is located in the Bear Country, and the Bear Country and the Ghost Country have also formed an offensive and defensive alliance. This actually means that Star Hidden Village is also in alliance with the Uzumaki Clan and Bai Yu.
In such a weak and negligible ninja village, there is a genius like Yuxing. He looks like he is only eleven or twelve years old. He can pass the exam in the Death Forest alone, and he is also unscathed. It seems that Xingyin Village is not as simple as people think.
At this time, the ninjas of Konoha suddenly thought that even without Konoha as an ally, the Uzumaki clan seemed to be very powerful and had formed alliances with the Kingdom of Demons, the Kingdom of Bears, the Kingdom of Snow, the Kingdom of Swamp, and the Kingdom of Birds.
"Candidates who pass the exam early can go to rest first and wait until the last group of candidates pass or give up the exam before starting the next round. The rest room is at the corner of the corridor on the second floor. Someone will provide you with food at meal time."
The Konoha chuunin who invigilated the exam explained to Kimimaro, Shiro, and Meteor.
The three expressed their understanding and walked towards the stairs on the first floor.
When they reached the corridor on the second floor, the three of them came to Bai Yu and bowed respectfully.
"You all performed very well." Bai Yu said with a smile. He did this mainly to embarrass the top management of Konoha. To say that it would gain any special benefits, it would not be so, but he was very happy.
"Ms. Xia Xing asked me to say hello to you on her behalf." Yuexing bowed again. Compared to Kimimaro and Bai, he seemed a little more reserved and looked unusually respectful, because it was Bai Yu who cured all the practitioners in Xingyin Village's "Peacock Magic" 'The ninja's evil disease is the one who brings hope to their village.
"Well, have a good rest and prepare for the exam. When the exam is over, I will also go to the village to have a look." Bai Yu nodded.
"Yes!" Yuexing said respectfully, and then walked towards the end of the corridor.
"Teacher Bai Yu, we want to take a look here again, is that okay?"
Kimimaro said that he wanted to stay here with Shiro for a while to see if Uchiha Itachi, who was valued by Shiro Yu, would pass the exam today.
Kimimaro was quite disappointed that Uchiha Itachi simply gave up the scroll to avoid the battle, because even if Uchiha Itachi resisted, he would not besiege Uchiha Itachi with Shiro and Meteor. They were indeed following Shiro Yu's order. Deliberately sniping Uchiha Itachi, as for the three of them meeting, it was just a coincidence.
I just didn't expect that at the same age, Uchiha Itachi would be so calm and give up the fight directly. In this way, Kimimaro and the three of them could not continue to cause trouble for Uchiha Itachi, and they couldn't do it too obviously.
Of course, Kimimaro believed that since Uchiha Itachi was someone Shiroha valued, it was impossible for him to fail the exam, and he might soon gather the scrolls again and come here.
Kimimaro hopes to meet Itachi in the next exam and defeat him in a one-on-one fair match to prove his worth.
"Of course. From the looks of it, you don't really need to rest. Just stay here."
Bai Yu would naturally not refuse this small request.
Sarutobi Hiruzen on the side heard Kimimaro's name and couldn't help but curse in his heart. He originally thought that Shiroha was bringing the genin to take the exam symbolically, in order to ease the relationship with Konoha, but he didn't expect that he actually asked him to train him carefully. The disciples came here and said they were 'subordinates', just to cause trouble!
At a young age, Kimimaro and Shiro had the demeanor of strong men. They were obviously not weak in strength. The meteor who took the exam alone was also very good. No wonder Itachi gave up the scroll when he met these three people. If a fight broke out, I'm afraid the three of them might kill Itachi.
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that Bai Yu was a little sinister, and the light and gentle smile on his face looked very dazzling.
Next, the conversation between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Bai Yu seemed a bit formulaic, with both parties maintaining awkward yet polite smiles.
In the evening, another group of people came to the tower, but they were not candidates, but ninjas from Konoha.
Uchiha Fugaku, Shisui, and Chiho, three strong Uchiha came to watch the second exam.
As Itachi's father, Fugaku knew how outstanding his son was. Apart from his lack of experience, Itachi surpassed some senior chuunin in both strength and quality. Although he was only 10 years old, he was fully capable of the job. Especially jounin, as for surpassing his father, it is only a matter of time.
Although Fugaku was very strict with Itachi, deep down he always regarded Itachi as his pride.
Especially this Chunin Selection Examination is also a moment to show the world how good Uchiha can be.
10 years old, Genin, taking the Chunin Selection Exam alone, Uchiha with dual Magatama Sharingan, these factors are mixed together, all highlighting Itachi's talent, now all he needs is the first place in the Chunin Selection Exam, Let the name of this genius become even louder.
Even if Itachi breaks Kakashi's record of becoming a jounin at the age of 12, it will only be a matter of time.
Especially in this special period, the village's prestige was damaged in the previous Kumogakure mission incident, and its relationship with the Hyuga clan deteriorated. This is actually a good thing for Fugaku, because the deterioration of the relationship between the high-level officials and the Hyuga clan means that They need more support from the Uchiha clan, and Fugaku is strongly opposed to the way some radical factions in the clan want to express Uchiha's political demands through violence.
He wanted to resolve the conflict through peaceful means, such as letting the village see the power and heritage of the Uchiha clan, and how terrifying each generation of new Uchiha geniuses was, to prove the importance of the Uchiha clan.
Itachi is a key part of this!
He will be in the spotlight and push the family's reputation to a new level.
As for Shisui who was traveling with Fugaku, he just came along because he had a better relationship with Itachi. He didn't think too much about it, because he was very confident in Itachi's strength. Generally, chunin was no match for Itachi. Passing the Chunin Exam of this difficulty should be very easy for Itachi.
Chiho's purpose was relatively simple. She just came to see Bai Yu. If she didn't want to seem too impatient, she would have gone to see Bai Yu last night.
The three of them came to Sarutobi Hiruzen, bowed slightly and said, "Third-generation-sama."
"Fugaku, Shisui, Chiho." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.
"Bai Yu-kun." Fugaku and Zhisui looked at Bai Yu.
"Bai Yu." Chiho came to Bai Yu and greeted him with a smile and a slightly shy expression. She subconsciously lifted her short hair at the temples with her hands, revealing her fair and small ears.
Although she has grown from the young girl to a mature woman, both externally and internally, she is still a bit like that before in front of her sweetheart.
"Chiho, you are beautiful again."
Bai Yu smiled and said, his words were not a compliment.
Kushina is very beautiful and considerate, but in terms of appearance alone, she is already top-notch, but compared to Chiho, she is still inferior. Especially Chiho is obviously very mature, but she has a very girly look. Obviously, it has a different flavor.
Of course, the meaning of Kushina to Bai Yu is unmatched by anyone. She is the woman who has supported each other and grown up together since he was at his weakest.
unique.
"Really?" Chiho's cheeks were slightly red. It was obviously the simplest compliment, but when Bai Yu said it, she immediately felt a huge sense of satisfaction in her heart. This was even happier than letting her become the Fifth Hokage.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and Fugaku Uchiha frowned slightly when they looked at Chiho's extremely outgoing performance. He was obviously the top strongman of the Uchiha clan and the elite Jonin of Konoha, but he was actually a love brain?
Where do you stand?
Looking at this, Shiro Yu might be able to make Chiho betray Uchiha and Konoha with just one word.
This is so terrible!
"Of course, I usually don't tell lies." Bai Yu said with a smile. His only good impression of Konoha was because of friends such as Chiho, Hideto, Tsunade, Nawaki, Oshima Shuichi, and his old friend Sakumo. Son Kakashi.
Noticing the changes in the expressions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Fugaku, Bai Yu greeted Fugaku politely.
Because the Uchiha clan leader was not included in the Konoha troops that supported the Uzumaki clan, and his position was firmly on Konoha's side, so there was no need to win over him, and Bai Yu would naturally not be very enthusiastic about him.
Shisui, on the other hand, is a talent that can be made. Bai Yu has already transformed Shisui's world view through the Kodama incarnation Uchiha Issei, so naturally he has to increase his efforts to make him his own.
"Zhishui." Bai Yu stretched out his hand towards Zhishui.
Shisui was stunned for a moment. Now Shiroyu represents the entire Uzumaki clan and is equal to the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. However, he does not shake hands with the clan leader, but he shakes hands with Shisui, an Uchiha clan member and a jounin of Konoha ANBU. The intention of shaking hands is a little too obvious.
After Zhisui hesitated for a moment, he stretched out his hand and held Bai Yu tightly.
When Sarutobi Hiruzen saw this, his expression became a little unnatural, but he quickly adjusted it.
Uchiha Fugaku, on the other hand, frowned deeply.
If it were in the past, Shisui would definitely avoid suspicion and not show too close to Bai Yu, because he is in the ANBU and knows that the higher-ups are actually very afraid of the Uzumaki clan. Konoha and the Uzumaki clan are allies on the surface, but in fact they are not close.
But after getting along with Issei for a long time, Shisui started to like people who were strong in certain aspects.
Shisui wanted to send a signal to the third generation that the Uchiha clan did not only have the option of compromising with the higher-ups.
Among the Uchiha clan, the voice for independence from Konoha is getting louder and louder. There are more and more "independence faction" clan members, which is also the most silent resistance to the delaying policy of Konoha's top leaders.
If the top management didn't give a clear answer, even Shisui would be reluctant to help them. After Shisui entered the Anbu these years, he was tired of being caught between his family and the village.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit strange, Uchiha Fugaku looked down and quickly changed the topic: "Sandaime-sama, no candidate has passed the exam so far?"
Although he asked this question, Fugaku's intention was very clear. He was showing his goodwill to the third generation. One afternoon was definitely enough for Itachi to pass the exam. Itachi was the Itachi of the Uchiha clan and the Itachi of Konoha. He was an Uchi. The clan leader of Wave is firmly on the side of Konoha.
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened and he said: "There are currently two teams that have passed the exam. The first ones to pass the exam are Kimimaro and Shiro, candidates from the Uzumaki clan, followed by Meteor, a candidate from Hoshigakure Village."
Following Sarutobi Hiruzen's gaze, Fugaku looked at Kimimaro and Shiro, who were chatting on the railing not far away. It turned out that Itachi wasn't the first to pass the exam?
"What about Itachi? He..." Noticing that there was something wrong with Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone, Fugaku continued to ask.
"Itachi met Kimimaro, Shiro and Yuisei during the exam, so he voluntarily gave up the scroll. Now he should be fighting for the scroll again." Sarutobi Hiruzen responded.
Fugaku subconsciously looked at Bai Yu who was aside. How could Kimimaro and Bai have such strong strength? It actually made Itachi, who had been carefully trained by him and opened the double Magatama Sharingan, give up the scroll directly.
Seeing this, Bai Yu smiled and shrugged: "It can only be said that Itachi's luck is not very good. These two disciples of mine are still somewhat capable."
"Disciple?!" Fuyue was stunned when he heard this, and he immediately reacted. It seemed that Bai Yu was well prepared.
Fugaku was well aware of the level of training of disciples of the Hokage line. The three disciples of the third generation, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiya, were collectively known as the "Three Ninjas" and were powerful in the ninja world.
The disciples of the Sannin are even more remarkable. Shiroha is a disciple of Orochimaru, and his physical skills can compete with the Third Raikage. Namikaze Minato is a disciple of Jiraiya, and his reputation of golden flash is powerful in the ninja world; and Kushina He also studied under Tsunade for a long time and was considered to be half of Tsunade's disciple.
Now that Bai Yu is letting his disciples compete, it is conceivable that the strength of these two people must be far beyond their peers, and even on the same level as Itachi. It is reasonable for Itachi to give up the unnecessary battle, but the face has been lost.
As time went by, it soon reached eight o'clock in the evening, and the sky became completely dark. Just as a group of people were preparing to leave the tower, another small team appeared outside the tower.
However, it was not Itachi who passed the exam, but Inuzuka Hana, Aburame Muta, and Hyuga Takashi, Konoha's newest pilot special genin team. The three of them were all from the ninja clan and had special investigative abilities.
This is the class system that Hiruzen Sarutobi first figured out after three huge battles. It allows outstanding genin to form a small team, which is somewhat similar to the traditional combination of Ino Shika Butterfly.
Of course, such a system is not very friendly to civilians. Just to quickly restore Konoha's strength, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to give up some of the lower-class people who had always supported him and chose to compromise with the ninja clan.
The invigilator who was on duty late at night kept paying attention to the electronic screen in the tower. It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that Uchiha Itachi successfully arrived at the tower.
The second exam lasted for five days. By the evening of the third day, most of the candidates who could pass the exam had arrived at the tower. A considerable number of candidates either gave up the exam or died during the exam.
In addition to threats from humans, the poisonous insects and beasts in the Death Forest are also deadly to ordinary genin.
However, according to regulations, the preliminaries for the third exam will still be held on the fifth day.
So Bai Yu did not go to the central tower of the Death Forest in the past two days. Instead, he went to the Shiggy Bone Forest with Tsunade and obtained a large number of cells from the Slug Immortal.
To extract the bloodline of the Slug Immortal, a large number of purified highly active cells are needed, and not a small number of slug clones can meet the requirements.
But with Tsunade's presence, Bai Yu was able to obtain enough slug cells as he wished after paying some price.
That day, just when Bai Yu returned to the hotel dedicated to entertaining distinguished guests, Kakashi came to the door.
"Kakashi?"
