Naruto's strongest wooden escape

In the golden autumn of October, the sky is blue and the breeze is blowing, cool and comfortable.Along the streets of Konoha, wild flowers swayed in the wind, silently blessing the coming autumn harvest.

morning two days later.

The final round of the Chunin Exams went on as scheduled.

In the chunin exam venue.

The stands on both sides were filled with people watching the game. Among the people, many people could be seen wearing masks, secretly maintaining order at the scene.

The seven members of the Uchiha Festival slowly boarded a viewing area just north of the venue, silently waiting for the final showdown.

"Masatsu, Minato, you have to work harder!"

While waiting, a voice came from behind the seven people.

Uchiha Matsuri and Namikaze Minato turned around and saw that it was Inuzuka Ou who had withdrawn from the fifth class due to injury half a year ago.

"E, why are you here?" Namikaze Minato hugged Inuzuka E in surprise.

Compared to Uchiha Matsuri, who was both an enemy and a friend, Namikaze Minato was obviously closer to Inuzuka Ou, his childhood playmate.

"And what about me?"

Beside Inuzuka, a huge body was happily eating potato chips.

"Dontou, you're here too!" Namikaze Minato looked at Akimichi Dontou excitedly.

As Minato Namikaze's former (good) team (friends), even if they no longer perform missions, their status in Namikaze Minato's heart is by no means comparable to that of Uchiha Matsuri and Uzumaki Kushina. of.

"Although I can no longer perform missions with you, we will always be teammates on the same team." As he said that, Inuzuka took out a forehead protector with the Konoha logo and put it on his forehead.

Inuzuka E hugged the ninja dog Ono and said emotionally: "Maybe my level can only stagnate at this level, but I still hope that you two can get stronger and stronger. After all..."

"After all, you two are the closest thing to being the Hokage among the shinobi of our generation."

After saying that, Inuzuka gave the two of them a smile.

Hearing Inuzuka E's impassioned words, Namikaze Minato was obviously moved: "E, Donto, thank you for coming to cheer us on. But don't worry, I will definitely realize that dream."

Namikaze Minato's dream is of course to become "a great Hokage".

"I will do the same." Seeing that Namikaze Minato had made his position clear, Uchiha Matsuri followed.In this atmosphere, it is difficult to say anything else at the Uchiha Festival.

At this moment, Uchiha Matsuri had more things on his mind.

Although he didn't know the rules of the final round, Uchiha Matsuri clearly understood that no one who could advance to the final round was weak.After the chakra output was limited, Uchiha Matsuri was not sure that he could defeat any of the remaining six people.

"Thunderstorm birth and Yin seal can no longer be used. The only weapon that can be used now is the pupil technique." Uchiha Matsuri thought to himself.

Uchiha Matsuri, who has read the original Naruto novel, naturally knows the power of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.In this life, like a gift from God, Uchiha Matsuri opened his Sharingan early.

Even without the Yin Seal and the Thunderstorm, Uchiha Matsuri is convinced that he can dominate the ninja world with his Sharingan.

"Look, it's Hokage-sama!"

"Master Hokage is here."

The arrival of the Third Hokage instantly brought the atmosphere of the venue to a climax.

Next to the Third Hokage were the Third Mizukage, the representative of Kirigakure Village, and Chiyo, the representative of Sunagakure Village.

Facing the venue

After waving to the excited audience, the Third Hokage stopped.

"Please." The Third Hokage smiled and asked the two of them to go ahead.

"Please." The two responded.

After a simple push, the Third Hokage, the Third Mizukage and Chiyo boarded the stands and sat in the three VIP seats specially reserved for ANBU ninjas.

In the north stand, the two advisors Koharu and Mito Kaden suddenly appeared next to several genin.

After seeing the two people, the five genin of Konoha immediately saluted them. Even the two ninjas from Sunagakure Village and Kirigakure Village nodded to them after seeing the actions of the Konoha ninjas.

"The two of us came here not for anything else, but mainly to talk about the rules of the game." Mito Kadoyan looked stubborn.

"The rules are very simple. The last round of the competition will be in the form of an arena battle." Xiaochun said with squinted eyes after turning to bed. "The seven of you will go on the stage in the order of drawing lots to fight against each other. The loser will lose the chance, and the winner will usher in the next person. challenge”

Before the seven people could reply, Mito Menyan cleared his throat and said with a straight face:

"According to the results of the draw, the order of the seven of you is Uzumaki Kushina, this Kiri ninja, Nara Shikaku, Gekko Seisuke, this Suna ninja, Uchiha Matsuri, and Namikaze Minato."

Ring battle?

After listening to the words of the two consultants, Uchiha Matsuri had a lot of doubts in his heart.

If this were to be the case, wouldn't the earlier players be at a disadvantage?

Even if there were ninjas with huge chakra reserves and high strength, in this competition system, they would probably be exhausted after rounds of competition!

Thinking of this, Uchiha Matsuri suddenly raised his hand.

"Two advisors, can I ask a question?" Uchiha Matsuri asked.

"Ok?"

"Does the result of the competition have any impact on the evaluation of the Chuunin title?" Uchiha Matsuri raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Uchiha Matsuri, who has read the original Naruto novel, still remembers it.In the original work, the final round of the first Chunin Examination was not based on the winning or losing results to determine who should be awarded the title of "Chunin" and who could not become a Chunin.

Instead, a dedicated person will evaluate who can be promoted to Jonin by observing the performance of each candidate and combining it with their own judgment.

Therefore, even though he lost to Temari in the competition, Shikamaru still became the first among the twelve to become a chuunin.

"There is no impact." Mito Menyan waved his hand.

"In other words, even if we lose the game, as long as we perform at the level of a chuunin, we can still become a chuunin." Uzumaki Kushina said.

"That's right." Xiaochun smiled as he turned to bed.

"..."

"Since winning or losing doesn't matter, then as long as they perform to a normal level, the seven people present can basically be rated as chuunin." Uchiha Matsuri laughed directly in his heart.

If winning or losing doesn't matter, who would fight to the death against the opponent?

The person who made this rule is out of his mind!

Too lazy to complain about this weird competition system, Uchiha Matsuri took his seat directly. Anyway, according to the order of playing, it was far from Uchiha Matsuri's turn to play.

Just when Uchiha Matsuri complained about the unreasonable competition system in his heart, Koharu quietly approached Uzumaki Kushina and whispered to Uzumaki Kushina for a while.After Koharu finished speaking, Uzumaki Kushina nodded, as if she had promised something.

Center of the venue.

With everyone watching, Uzumaki Kushina and Kiri Ninja stepped onto the competition stage.
