The Invisible Assassin of Konoha

Chapter 56
Because of the strength displayed by Rikimaru, those ninjas who used him as a cash machine became silent. Although there were still many people with greedy eyes, no one dared to be the first bird.

"Is there anyone else who wants to compete with me? If not, then I'll stop here?"

The three kinds of scrolls have been collected, but the rules still have to be followed. If you want to be completely stable, you need to play at least two games.

When Rikimaru said before that he wanted to compete, many people rushed to fight him, but now, after seeing Kazuhiro Noda's instant defeat, they all retreated.

Noda Kazuhiro's strength is already considered good, but even so, he was beaten helplessly, let alone the others.

Seeing that no one stood up, Li Wan was about to retreat, but at the last moment, a young man stood up suddenly.

"I come!"

"It's him. This guy has already won a game. He is stronger than Kazuhiro Noda. He is indeed qualified to challenge."

Seeing this young man who stood up, everyone was talking about it. This young man seemed to have some strength. He had won a game before, and he was even stronger than Noda Yihong just now.

Rikimaru didn't care who he was, and asked directly, "Which scroll do you want to bet on?"

He was going to defeat his opponent with thunder, so naturally he didn't care about his situation being exposed.

The boy said without hesitation, "Scroll of Earth."

"Okay! I'll do whatever I want!"

Riki complied, and took out the earth scroll, and the boy took out the sky scroll, and handed it to Katsuo Oguri at the same time, and then began the competition.

The battle didn't last too long, just like Noda Kazuhiro's previous battle, the boy was defeated after a few seconds.

Among this group of ninjas, Rikimaru's flashing attack was really terrifying. It was difficult for anyone to be able to stop his first round of flashing attack, and naturally it was impossible to completely force out all his strength.

The two consecutive victories without resistance made most people lose their minds, and no one dared to challenge him until Riki backed down.

In this way, Rikimaru became the second person to collect all three kinds of scrolls, and like Yume Zhixun, he became a neglected existence, and no one dared to challenge him again.

When Riki first appeared, everyone thought he was a sheep, but only now did he realize that Riki was not a sheep at all, but an extremely ferocious tiger. Naturally, no one would continue to do stupid things for his precious scroll , everyone pinned their hopes on the last spot.

The competition for the last place was really fierce like never before. During the process, someone collected all three scrolls, but was soon challenged and took away the scrolls.

Except for Rikimaru, Yume Zhixun, and the referee Oguri Katsuki, the rest of the dozen or so people participated in the battle, and each of them even played a few rounds. In the end, they were all exhausted, and only one person stood out and won the final quota.

"Congratulations to the three of you, you are the ones to advance in this Chunin exam."

Oguri Katsuki congratulated the three of Riki with a happy expression on his face. This time, all three candidates were born from his hands, which shows that their gang's ability is stronger. The most important thing is that there is no trouble that is difficult to solve.

This is also what Oguri Katsuki was satisfied with. The ninja who participated in the Chunin exam this time did not come from a big family like the Uchiha clan. Although there were also Hyuga clans, the opponent was not strong and did not cause any trouble.

Oguri Katsuki is indeed capable. Although many people were very dissatisfied that they did not get the quota, they did not explode on the spot, nor did they cause trouble. It seemed that they were all afraid of Oguri Katsuki, the organizer.

The next thing is already very simple. Those who have collected all three kinds of scrolls go to the central tower, and are given the status of Chunin by the Jonin who is in charge of the Chunin exam.

Then the junin asked all three of them to report their clothing models. This is to make specially for them ninja combat uniforms that only cunin and above can wear, which is the small vest worn by Konoha ninjas in the anime. .

However, after the person in charge of the Zhongnin exam took Rikimaru and the others out of the death forest, an accident happened.

All participating ninjas were gathered at the entrance to the death forest, including the three of Riki. There were 47 people when they entered, but 36 people came out, that is to say, 11 people died in the death forest.

This death toll is already the most casualty in the past two years, but this is not the key point. After all, it is the Chunin exam, and casualties are inevitable, but this time one of the casualties has a very special identity.

When Rikimaru saw a group of white-eyed Hyuga family members gathering, he knew that something was wrong. It must be that the Hyuga clan he killed had been exposed, but he thought about it and didn't reveal too many flaws, so he slowly clam down.

He never thought that the Hyuga Clan would move so fast. They had already received the news just after the Chunin exam was over, and it seemed that the death of that person had been confirmed, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to make such a big move.

Rikimaru and a group of people were watched, and no one was allowed to leave. Although the Hyuga clan is domineering, this is Konoha Village after all, and they can't make decisions yet, otherwise the teacher of the Chunin exam would have gone to the third Hokage.

When Sandai Hokage received the news, he hurried over immediately, accompanied by Danzo, the top two Konohas, and quickly arrived at the scene.

After the Third Hokage arrived, he immediately walked towards the crowd of the Hyuga Clan, looking at the middle-aged man of the Hyuga Clan who was the leader.

"Clan Chief Hyuga, what's going on? Is it worth your trouble?"

He was indeed very puzzled. Since the Senju clan disappeared, although the Hyuga clan is the second richest family in Konoha, they are completely different from the Uchiha clan. They are very proud, but not arrogant.

Blocking the Chunin test site like today and not letting anyone leave has never happened before.

"Master Hokage, it's not that I want to embarrass the village, it's because my youngest son died in the death forest. I must have an explanation for this matter."

The person talking to the third generation is the middle-aged man of the Hyuga clan, that is, the father of Hyuga Hizuzu and Hyuga Hyuzai. Hyuga Hizuzu has not yet taken over as the patriarch, so the current patriarch of the Hyuga clan is still his father.

"Your son died in the Forest of Death? During the Chunin exam?"

He really didn't know about this matter. To be precise, the Chunin exams were all organized by his subordinates. He was so busy that it was impossible for him to fully control the Chunin exams twice a year.

But since the incident happened, the son of the head of the Hyuga clan died, so the meaning of this incident is naturally different.

"What exactly is going on?"
