Chapter 174 Chief Examiner of the Chunin Exam
Hokage's office building.
"Today I'm here to summon you, the teachers who guide jounin and ninja schools. You should know what I'm talking about."
"Chunin Selection Exam?" Hatake Kakashi didn't pay much attention to this matter, but he had heard about it.
Recently, he has been more concerned about the red ribbon, which has caused a lot of trouble in the ninja world. When Gu Meng was testing whether the starlight value was not only related to strength but also related to the scenes in the original work, the red ribbon frequently harassed Kakashi.
Later, I gave up because it was not clear whether his strength should be calculated by Kage level or Jonin level.
"Actually, there have been young ninjas from other ninja villages in the village recently. The exams are about to start."
Metkai is obviously paying more attention to the Chunin Exam, and his subordinates can't wait to prove themselves in this exam.
The third generation nodded and said that it was indeed the case: "Do you have anyone recommended to participate in the selection? Regarding the Chunin Examination, in principle, recommendations are based on your wishes, whether you wait first or participate directly, after all, they are your subordinates ”
Yuhi Kurenai heard that the Chuunin exam was about to start, and she hesitated a little, but she still made up her mind.
…
"Class 7, Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, Naruto Uzumaki, the above three, in the name of Kakashi Hatake, recommend them to take the Chunin Exam!"
"Class 8, Hyuga Hinata, Inuzuka Kiba, and Aburame Shino, the above three, in my name, Yuhi Kurenai, recommend them to take the Chunin Exam!"
"Class 10, Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka, the above three, in the name of Asuma Sarutobi, recommend them to take the Chunin Exam!"
The recommendations of other Jonin were nothing, but the recommendations of these three people immediately aroused discussion.
As a chuunin, Iruka shouldn't have said anything, and Naruto and the others have already graduated, but after hearing this, he still wanted to stop him:
"Wait a minute, these nine students just graduated from my class this year. Is it too early?"
"But from the moment they graduate, they are no longer your students."
Kakashi interrupted, "Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and Uzumaki Naruto are now my subordinates."
The other jounin had the same opinion.
"...I understand." Iruka is just an ordinary civilian chuunin, and he can only retreat now.
"Iruka, I understand how you feel, but don't worry, I am the chief examiner of this Chunin Exam, and I will take good care of them." Gu Meng said softly.
"Thank you, Yuki."
In this Chunin Exam, the examiner for the first exam was Ihiki Morino from the Torture Club, the examiner for the second exam was Anko Mitarashi, and the examiner for the third exam was originally supposed to be killed before Shippuden could survive. The sick ghost ghost Moonlight Hayate.
But this time Gu Meng volunteered and took the position of the third examination, and also served as the chief examiner.
…
After the others dispersed, Gu Meng recommended the last group of candidates to the third generation...
"Taiji Yagami, Asaki Igawa, and Musashi, are these three really trustworthy?"
These three people are Gu Meng's strongest shadow clones, and are responsible for interacting with the subsequent Red Ribbon Troops and Dr. Gro's early artificial humans.
As for Tao Baibai, he is the boss of the three planets and can only be killed by Gu Meng himself.
"After this period of observation, I think they are credible. Although the Yagami-ryu ancient martial arts, Taima Ninja Taijutsu, and Meow Fist they master are all very dangerous powers, even if there is any accident, they will always be under my surveillance. I won’t cause any trouble, let’s just treat this chuunin exam as their assessment.”
"That's fine. After all, the Chuunin Exam is just a battle between genin, so it shouldn't cause any big trouble..."
The third generation paused and then said:
"Speaking of which, just like them, Dumplings and Uzumaki were rescued from those bases. If they also want to take the exam, I can also arrange for one person to form a temporary three-person team."
"No, they are still young. Let's stay in the ninja school for now."
"good."
After Gu Mengye left, Sandai was silent for a while.
Although the Chuunin Exam is theoretically just a battle between genin, there is always an ominous feeling this time...
"Call Jiraiya back."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
The cat-faced ANBU accepted the order and then retreated into the shadows.
…
Konoha shopping street.
Several people are confronting each other.
The reason was simple. Kankuro was hit on the head by a kid from Konoha. When he was about to hit the kid, he was directly controlled by the dumpling next to him with his superpower, which attracted Gaara's attention.
Gu Meng didn't give any special orders to the dumplings, and they were basically left alone.
The general policy of action is to live a healthy life and kill as few people as possible. But when you are bullied, you don't have to worry about whether the other person is a minor and you will return the favor.
However, Dumpling has never fought with anyone in the Ninja School so far, but he has fought off the monsters at the root.
"Stop!" When Gaara, who was somewhat mentally ill at this time, took action, Sasuke and Naruto who were passing by couldn't stand it and tried to block Gaara.
As a result, it felt like Kankuro had disgraced himself, and Gaara, who had already gained strength, controlled the sand in the gourd to really move.
He manipulated the yellow sand to form a huge sand claw, directly controlling Nazusa, similar to Kankuro who was controlled by super powers next to him.
So Dumpling turned his head expressionlessly and looked at Gaara, the troubled boy who was also fierce.
…
Neither of them is a talkative person. They even skipped the "what are you looking at" process and just got started.
The martial arts of Tsurusen-ryu gave Gaara a bit of a physical shock in advance, and it was the dumplings that had the upper hand. However, this is the street of Konoha after all. Before Gaara stepped up his efforts, there were many adult ninjas soon. They rushed over, so both sides had no choice but to give up.
"Are you also a Konoha genin who came to take the chuunin exam? You are very good. I will kill you with my own hands at that time."
The disgraced Gaara dropped his harsh words and walked away alone, not caring about Kankuro and Temari who were trying to smooth things over.
"No."
"Huh?" Gaara turned his head and looked at the boy in blue wearing goggles who appeared at some point.
"Dumpling is still young, and he is not mature enough to practice Kakusen-ryu martial arts. He is not a genin yet. By the way, you should be able to understand by looking at Dumpling's appearance. He is still old enough to go to kindergarten."
"If you want to fight, why not try my Yagami style ancient martial arts. I have a lot of newly developed forbidden moves that I want to use. I am short of a human sandbag. I think you are a good fit..."
The young man's voice was somewhat mocking.
"You are?" Gaara thought as if facing a formidable enemy, the murderous aura in this person...is not inferior to mine!
"Taiji Yagami, I give you my true words, cherish your last few days. When the chuunin exam comes, I will kill you with my own hands."
Gu Meng's shadow clone performed a throat-cutting ceremony on Gaara, and then directly used his aura to disperse the sand on Naruto and Sasuke's bodies. Without further words, he picked up the dumplings and went home for dinner.
"...Interesting, interesting, this Chunin Exam is really coming at the right time."
Gaara shed a drop of cold sweat and looked very ugly.
The one with an even uglier face was Uchiha Sasuke. He originally thought that although his strength was far inferior to that man, he could at least be considered outstanding among his peers. Unexpectedly...
Forget about the Yuuki he met in the Land of Waves. After all, he was his former teacher, and he is now a Jonin. Many people in the village are saying that he will become the fifth generation, and he is already a big shot at the top of the ninja world.
But the Gaara I met now is different from that Yagami Taiji. They are both genin of the same age, but each one is stronger than the other... and -
Sasuke looked at Gyoza who was following Taiji Yagami... That child wasn't eight years old yet, was he?
But the power and speed just displayed... what kind of monster are these!
…
First exam.
"I accept the test. Even if I can only be a ninja for the rest of my life, I will become Hokage to show you!"
Naruto's speech woke up Sasuke, who had been gloomy recently, and also infected many genin who were about to give up under the intimidation of Morino Ihiki.
Although this seems unlikely now, who would have thought that a genin could really become Hokage?
But Naruto's Mouth Escape Technique relied on momentum. Gu Meng, who was sitting next to him during the exam, couldn't help but applaud:
"You're awesome, you're so stubborn when you hand in a blank paper, Naruto, I admire you!"
Gu Meng gave him a thumbs up and showed a bright smile.
…
Second exam.
Gu Meng's wooden clone was staring at Orochimaru almost the whole time, which caused Mitarashi Anko to feel Orochimaru's aura, but never found him because Orochimaru didn't want to cause trouble with secondary personnel now.
He also knew that he was being stared at by Yushu. Orochimaru didn't know what the upper limit of Yushu's tolerance was for him not to make trouble, so he had to use the rare opportunities to cause trouble on the most important people.
He bit Sasuke and left a curse mark.
"Sasuke-kun will definitely need me, because he needs strength."
While speaking, Orochimaru was thinking inwardly, "It's great that the troublesome person didn't show up during the whole process." Maybe this distant relative of the Senju acquiesced in his contact with the evil Uchiha?
Before touching that Dr. Gero, get the Uchiha first.
What Orochimaru didn't know was that Gu Meng, who was secretly observing, thought about taking action, but gave up. For Sasuke, Orochimaru was a good teacher, so let him go.
…
The other side of the forest of death.
Near the end, the battle began on a larger scale and had already attracted the attention of many strong teams of candidates.
Purple flames were burning on Taishou Yagami's hands, and his face showed a mad look.
Gu Meng's powerful shadow clones all have skills equivalent to level lv4 or above after the bonus. Taiji Yagami's Burning Release is even stronger than Ye Cang's.
What's more, these clones are not strong in blood inheritance or ninjutsu, but in taijutsu.
Gaara, who was knocked to the ground, stood up. As the doted son of his mother, Garuru, he was also a jinchuriki. His health and blue bars and armor were thick enough, so he was not burned to death directly:
"Taiji Yagami, can't you bear it so quickly? It's just what I want!"
Although Gaara was beaten very embarrassed, his momentum could not be lost.
"Yes, Konoha's drawing of lots has always been very fair and there is no shady secret. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch you in the third exam, so I'll kill you now."
The astonishing murderous aura on Taiji Yagami's body was not concealed, making the elite genin watching tremble. Kankuro and Temari were almost unable to move under this aura even if they wanted to fight alongside Gaara.
How many people did this boy with goggles kill? He was more terrifying than Gaara!
However, having said that, in fact, if they can rescue Gu Meng, they will still rescue him. After all, the opponent is underage and has mental problems. The blame for Gaara's crooked growth should be placed on Gaara's father, Rasa.
The Shukaku in Gaara's body was shocked by Gu Meng's murderous aura at first, but fortunately Shukaku was not a normal evil beast and was very stubborn.
He kept encouraging Gaara to fight for his dignity and kill the kid in front of him who was more arrogant than himself.
So the battle continued, and there was more and more yellow sand. The previous hand of sand had been blown up, and conventional ninjutsu was useless. This time, Gaara directly turned into a possession, and one hand became Shukaku's arm.
Yagami faced this scene without changing his face: "What a weak Jinchūriki, I really can't understand why these ninja villages regard Jinchūriki as the ultimate weapon. Isn't it enough to have a hand to fight a tailed beast?"
While Yagami was Versailles, Hyakushiki·Kisaki had already attacked——
Against him was a sky full of yellow sand.
"Boxers, Boxers, Boxers!!"
How could the yellow sand trap Gu Meng's shadow clone, which was controlled by him personally? The upper limit of this clone was higher than the one that crushed Orochimaru. At least Nagato had to come to have a chance of a tie.
The yellow sand in the sky was all blown up.
But that was just a feint. Gaara had already understood that this was not an ordinary opponent in the battle where he was just defeated, so he directly used the ultimate move - "Sand Falls Funeral! Sand Coffin!!"
Yagami seemed to be caught off guard and was trapped in the coffin, seemingly dead.
Kankuro and Temari were a little happy. Being trapped by this terrifying combo, this person should have been crushed into meat paste, right?
But Gaara did not relax his vigilance, and Yagami's two teammates looked indifferent.
"Is it time to have enough fun? Don't waste time anymore. I still have to find Kojiro to study the summoning ninja beast."
The red-haired woman had just finished speaking when the sand coffin was blown up.
"You deliberately went into a circle, thinking you could give me some surprises, but it turned out that you couldn't even massage me. You didn't think you could kill me at this level?"
"Die——" Another violent punch.
Before Gaara was killed/rescued, Shukaku took control of his body at this critical moment and transformed directly into the complete tailed beast mode.
"Wind Style: Air Training Bullet!"
Shukaku's direct appearance in the Chunin Exam was beyond everyone's expectations. Neither the Sand Village who planned the collapse of Konoha nor the Konoha who felt that it was just a Chunin selection and would not make too many mistakes expected that they would encounter the tailed beast at this stage.
The huge air training bullet gave many Konoha ninjas who had experienced the Nine-Tails Rebellion bad memories, and a group of jonin and chunin were rushing here.
However, this huge air training bullet was directly blown up by Yagami Taiji, who finally started to exert his strength. The broken air training bullet brought a huge turbulence, venting its power to the fullest.
Unfortunately, even a hair of Yagami could not be cut.
"What kind of monsters are these two people?"
The Xiaoqiang of Konoha and the elite Genin of other villages fled frantically, away from the battlefield.
"Not good!" Shukaku's instincts kept warning him after Yasha's efforts. His rich fighting experience allowed him to use the Shukaku Great Shield, which he claimed to be the strongest shield, in an instant.
This is a sand ninjutsu that uses chakra to exert pressure and mixes with minerals. It is stronger than the earth escape and earth flow wall or even the single Rashomon, but it did not cause any obstacles to Yasha's fist.
The crazy laughter and countless figures have spread for several miles-"Senni Hundred One Style, Eight Young Girls!"
Shukaku fell into a state where he wanted to turn back but couldn't and could only be beaten wildly. He felt that he would die today.
"Just a piece of sand, not half as good as me."
...
He didn't die, and he kept a trick in the end.
The apparent reason was that the chief examiner Gu Meng arrived in time to stop it, and by the way, he used the diamond seal and whirlpool seal that he was rewarded for saving Karin to reinforce the garbage seal on Gaara.
A punch on Yagami's head brought him back to normal from his frenzy:
"You little brat, how many times have I told you not to kill this relative? He is an important fighting force of the weak neighboring country, and he is also the son of Kazekage-sama. Without the One-Tail, Sand Village will not be able to gain a foothold in the ninja world!"
"They have fallen to the point where they have to use Jinchūriki to hold the scene. Can't you give them a little face? At least fight for a while longer. How can you kill them instantly? Wouldn't that make people see their weakness?"
"If Sand Village is gone, how can we show the strength of Konoha?"
Gu Meng's scolding voice was so loud that the leader of Sand Village couldn't hold it at all. Damn it!
...
