The Invisible Assassin of Konoha

Chapter 54 Simple and Complicated Competition

"This is the newly joined Fujiwara-kun, and he is also preparing to participate in this competition."

After the discussion, Oguri Katsuki took Rikimaru to the crowd and introduced it to everyone.

When Riki appeared before, everyone's eyes had already focused on him. Now that they heard that Riki was going to participate in the competition, most people's eyes shone with excitement.

Most of them have never heard of Rikimaru. After all, Rikimaru is different from Kakashi. His graduation examination was not very good that year, and he was very low-key in the next three years, so not many people know him.

The reason why they stared at Riki was because Riki was too young, he was the youngest of the group of ninja who took the Chunin exam, only less than ten years old, and the youngest of the others was 12 years old.

Young and weak, this is what most people think, so Riki suddenly became the target of everyone.

Being stared at by everyone with malicious intentions, Rikimaru didn't feel any pressure, he was just a group of ninja. At the beginning, he was facing the Chunin exam that countless big shots took, and he was not nervous at that time, let alone now.

"If you don't mind, I'll be the dealer for the next competition, how about that?"

The people around obviously didn't expect Rikimaru to say such words, everyone showed surprise, but soon became more excited, most of them were ready to move.

"Heh, this Fujiwara-kun looks peaceful, but he is actually very arrogant, provocative as soon as he comes up."

Katsuo Oguri looked at Riki who walked into the middle of the crowd, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. He was a genius who could suppress Kakashi. He didn't believe that anyone here could be Riki's opponent.

"Since everyone has no opinion, let me start."

Seeing that no one objected, Riki smiled slightly, and took out his scroll of the land character: "This is my scroll, the scroll of the land character, whoever is willing to take out the scroll of the sky character or the scroll of the herringbone, you can bet against me."

"Ugh!"

Seeing that Li Wan was actually a land scroll, several people sighed depressedly. They all had land scrolls. Qualified to fight Rikimaru.

"Shh, shh, shh!"

"I'll come." "I'll come first." "I'll be your opponent."

In an instant, the three of them stood up at the same time, while the other thoughtful people were a little slower, with remorse on their faces.

"Noda Kazuhiro, you just won a game, so give others a chance."

"That's right, Kazuhiro Noda, I haven't played a game yet, it's my turn this time."

Three people, two of them angrily reprimanded another boy at the same time, and this boy named Noda Yihong retorted unhappily.

"Who stipulated that once you have played one game, you can't play another game? Opportunities are won by oneself, not by others."

The three of them refused to give in to anyone, and they began to scold each other angrily. From their point of view, a weak chicken finally came, and everyone wanted to take advantage of it. someone else's meaning.

Seeing that none of the three would give way, Katsura Oguri, who was the host, walked out.

"Three, we are here for a fair duel. Since none of you are willing to give in, then you take out your respective scrolls, and then give the right to choose to Fujiwara-kun, how about it?"

The three of Noda Yihong also knew that it would be impossible to continue arguing like this, so they all took out their own scrolls according to Oguri Katsuki's words.

The boy named Noda Kazuhiro took out a herringbone scroll, and the other two were both sky scrolls.

Pointing at the scrolls of the three, Oguri Katsuki asked Rikimaru, "Fujiwara-kun, who do you choose to be your opponent?"

Riki turned his eyes around the three of them. What he needs most now is the herringbone scroll, so the first thing is of course the herringbone scroll.

"I choose him."

Seeing that Rikimaru was actually referring to Noda Kazuhiro, everyone was very surprised, because this Noda Kazuhiro was among the top few in strength among them, otherwise the two of them just now would not have unanimously attacked him.

"His herringbone scroll is exactly what I need."

Riki's words made everyone present look weird, and many people stared at Riki more greedily, because they had already thought of a possibility.

Riki needed a herringbone scroll, not a sky scroll, and what he took out was an earth scroll. In other words, Riki itself had a sky scroll, so there was no need for a sky scroll.

A person has two scrolls, even among them, they are very few.

This kind of competition looks very simple, but in fact it also has technical content. Before the fight, no one knows how many scrolls someone has and what scrolls they are. Challenge; of course, you don't have to sit on the bank and just play one game, but this is a battle you like.

Except for Rikimaru and Oguri Katsuki who have not participated in the battle, two of the other 20 people have not participated in the battle, and the rest have already participated in the battle, so everyone more or less knows which scrolls some people have on them, especially the one who won the battle. Several people.

And this competition has a very important stipulation, you can specify the target to challenge, but the condition is that the challenger must take out two different scrolls, while the challenged target only needs to take out one scroll.

If the person who is challenged refuses, then you need to take out a scroll, but this scroll must be what the other party wants. If there is no scroll that the other party wants, other scrolls are also acceptable.

So at this time, what kind of scroll you have is very important. Once exposed, you may be challenged by those who need it, and those who take the initiative to challenge will also take great risks. Two scrolls betting on one scroll seems to be at a disadvantage. , but as long as you have the strength, you can take advantage of it.

Some people may ask, in this way, wouldn't someone collect all three types of scrolls soon?
That's right, as long as you grasp the opportunity well, there is still a high probability of obtaining three kinds of scrolls, but there is a premise for this competition.

Even if someone has collected all three types of scrolls, they cannot leave. The competition must be completed after all three candidates are selected at the same time. In this case, the person who collects all three types of scrolls first will naturally become live target.

Before Riki came, several people were lucky enough to collect all three kinds of scrolls, but unfortunately, after being challenged, they lost the scrolls and had to choose again.

In the final analysis, although the competition here is fair, it is not that simple. In the end, it still depends on strength. Compared with free activities, the advantage is that no matter how you fight here, your life will not be in danger.

Those who are willing to join are all people who cherish their lives. It may be important to be promoted to Chunin, but more people still care about their own lives. Even if it costs 1 taels, compared to saving their lives, spending 1 taels is more important. value.

Even if it's just a ninja, there will be no lack of a mere 1 taels.
