Naruto Gourd has everything

Study, why not study?

He is not a member of the Demon Slayer Corps in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. He has no means of fighting against the enemy except breathing...

He is a ninja with chakra, ninjutsu, taijutsu and even hidden weapons.

If it puts a heavy burden on the body, just use less...

It is only used when encountering strong enemies. It will not be like those pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps, whose face is covered with spots at a young age.

What's more, he also has a precious gourd.

The probability of developing something that enhances lifespan and recovery ability is not small in the future.

Thinking of this, Hayabusa continued to practice the breathing of thunder.

……

The next morning.

Falcon Leaf woke up as usual.

Wash, cook, eat, and then rush to the meeting point to meet your teammates.

"Today's mission is border patrol."

After greeting each other, Mukai began to describe today’s mission.

"Border Patrol?"

Yugao and Sanada both exclaimed, and even Hayabusa frowned.

If it is peacetime, this task is naturally very simple.

But now the situation between Kumogakure and Konoha is very unstable. Under this situation, border patrol is not something that a rookie team like them can perform.

"Of course the higher ups won't let us die."

Looking at his subordinates with different expressions, Mukai explained: "This time we are going to the Kingdom of Wind to patrol the border."

"But aren't Sunagakure and Konoha allies?"

"The alliance will only be effective when neither side wants war. The turbulent situation between Kumogakure and Konoha has attracted the covetousness of surrounding countries, and even allies may become enemies."

"It actually happened like this."

This cruel reality made the atmosphere a little dull.

Hayabusa looked at the two of them, and then turned his attention to Mukai, "Captain, this year's joint chuunin exam will start in less than two months. Can you recommend us to take the exam?"

As soon as these words came out, Xi Yan and Sanada also looked at Mukai with expectant eyes.

"Captain, we have been performing relatively difficult tasks for more than half a month. We have reached the level of chuunin. We will be recommended for this exam!"

"Well...it's hard to say."

"why?"

Looking at Sanada who couldn't figure it out, Mukai smiled softly.

"Shan Ye and Xi Yan are fine, but what you say..."

As he said that, Mukai shook his head slightly and continued: "Although the tasks for more than half a month have been completed every time, this was all due to Hayabusa's active performance. If you say it, you always fall off the chain, and you still fail. You just have to keep practicing.”

"What, do you look down on me?"

Xi Yan ignored Sanada who was acting like a child and asked, "Then why don't you recommend me and Hayabusa?"

"Three people need to register together to participate in the Chunin Exam."

"what!"

"Of course, if there is a high-level recommendation, you can also participate in two people or alone."

Mukai glanced at Hayabusa who was silent on the side, and said to Xi Yan: "However, even if two or one person can participate, the others will be in groups of three. This is a quite unfavorable situation, and it is impossible to break through and become a chuunin. of."

"Then let me join in!"

Sanada shouted unwillingly.

"No."

Mukai decisively rejected Sanada, then raised his index finger and said: "If you insist on taking part, then perform better on the tasks before the exam comes. If your performance during this period makes me feel that you meet the standards, you will be promoted." Recommended to join Chunin."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's hurry up and complete the mission."

Sanada clenched his fists and walked in front with great enthusiasm.

Mukai smiled and followed.

"Let's go too!"

Xiyan greeted Falcon Ye and followed him.

Hayabusa frowned as he looked at the leaving figures of Mukai and Sanada.

After a while, he sighed and followed.

……

The Country of Fire and the Country of Wind are both one of the five great countries, and their territories are very vast.

The long border between the two countries connects the Country of Rain and the Country of Sichuan at the same time.

The Kingdom of Rain has its own ninja village, so there is no need to worry about the Kingdom of Wind invading from the Kingdom of Rain.

Therefore, the training of Team 4 this time is in the country of Kawakawa.

"Is this the power of nature?"

On the border between the Kingdom of Sichuan and the Kingdom of Wind. Everyone in the fourth class was standing on the green lawn. Less than two meters away in front of them... just like the dividing line drawn during homework, there was a sky full of yellow sand.

Obviously only one step apart...

But there are green forests on one side and desert on the other.

Such a spectacle even surprised Falcon Leaf.

"Okay, you go and survey the nearby environment to see if there are any signs of ninjas entering recently. I'm going to set up a trap."

Mukai had a bundle of steel wire slung over his shoulder and a basket of kunai detonating charms in his hand.

"Do you need to be so careful?"

Sanada said doubtfully: "Even if the situation between Kumogakure and the village is unstable now, and Sunagakure wants to take advantage of the opportunity, he will not invade before the war starts."

"It's because you are so lucky that you fail in every mission."

Xi Yan rebuked mercilessly.

"That's an irresistible factor, so it's not a slip of the chain."

Sanada tried to argue. He danced with his hands and feet and said, "Besides, does what happened in the past have anything to do with the present? Isn't what I said the truth?"

"Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. If you don't change your character, you will never become a chunin."

Mukai also scolded him severely, then turned around and went into the forest to set up a trap.

Xi Yan glanced at Sanada who was very unconvinced, shook his head, and went to survey the terrain.

"Damn it, everyone looks down on me."

Sanada clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

Looking at Sanada like this, Hayabusa hesitated.

"Do you have something to say to me?"

Sanada, who noticed Hayabusa's expression, asked proactively.

"...It's nothing, I just want to remind you to be careful."

"Oh, then you should also be careful."

"Ok!"

Without too many words, the two had a fight on the day they formed the team...

Although it happened more than half a month ago, and neither of them mentioned it, it was impossible to say that there was no grudge.

After saying that, the two of them left to survey the terrain.

However, Sanada didn't know that Hayabusa sighed deeply when he left.

He knew that he would not be able to participate in this year's Chunin Exam.

Sanada is a mediocre person, in all aspects...

But such a mediocre person has a character that refuses to admit defeat and will never stop until his head is broken and bleeding.

Such a person, when he is eager to perform, will perform badly.

Hayabusa thought of Mukai's promise to Sanada during the gathering today and his rebuke just now. I also think of how Sanada has always missed the mark at critical moments since the formation of the new fourth team...

Everything is revealed.

Kohinata Mukai doesn't want him to take part in this year's chuunin exams.

If Hinata Mukai was really sent here by Danzo, then it was actually Danzo who didn't want him to take the Chunin Exam.

This also makes sense why Mukai promised Sanada unnecessarily.

If you really don't want Hayabusa to take the exam, you can just refuse because Sanada's previous performance makes him unable to take the exam.

But he didn't do that.

There is only one thing Hayabusa can think of...

He doesn't want to take the exam, but he also wants someone to complement him and make him shine.

But, what is the purpose of doing this?
