Konoha: The New Will of Fire

"and many more…"

The assessor who appeared later raised his hand helplessly, telling Naruto and others to stop.

Naruto and others stopped in confusion. At this time, the assessor had time to explain: "I am the referee, not the assessor. I have seen your performance just now. I have to say that you are really rubbish. There is no trace of it." Combat experience and multi-person cooperation are still unable to defeat the opponent."

Hearing this, Lu Jiujiu's hearts suddenly sank, and they subconsciously thought that they would not pass the test.

But at this moment, the assessment referee changed the subject: "But you are still just students and have not experienced real battles. It is very rare to be able to reach this point. When facing a strong enemy, you can realize the importance of your partners and be brave." Cooperate to fight against the enemy, and you already have the basic qualities to become a ninja."

"Therefore, I judge as the assessment referee. Thanks to the excellent performance in the battle just now, Uzumaki Naruto, Nara Shikamaru, Inuzakuga, Akimichi Choji, Aburame Shino, and Hyuga Hinata passed the assessment. You are now You can leave the assessment area."

Hearing this, Shikaku and the others were filled with joy, but in comparison, the other two looked puzzled.

Sakura stepped forward and asked unconvinced: "Why can they all pass the test, but we can't?"

The assessment referee glanced at Sakura and Ino indifferently and said indifferently: "During the battle just now, you two just stood aside, and at this time, what you were thinking about was fighting over a certain male classmate in the ninja school. Six years of education have not taught you the most basic qualities of a ninja."

"Ninjas like you two will not only harm yourself in a real battle, but also kill your teammates."

The assessment referee doesn't care whether the two people in front of them are girls. The enemy will not be merciful to them just because they are girls.The series of merciless criticisms made Sakura and Ino so ashamed that they couldn't raise their heads and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Shikamaru and others stood aside and watched this scene quietly. No one spoke for them, not even Naruto, who liked Sakura, did not speak for her.

Sakura was filled with grievances. She felt that the assessment referee was too unkind. This was a simple assessment. Is it necessary?Although she didn't help, she didn't hold back either. Besides, the others were so strong that they could deal with each other without her help at all.

What's more important is that Sasuke is also a partner. Sasuke acts alone, what should he do if he encounters danger?Isn't it necessary for a ninja to care about the safety of his companions?

Lord Hokage also said that those who break the rules are trash, but those who don't even cherish their companions are worse than trash.

The more Sakura thought about it, the more she felt aggrieved. She subconsciously raised her head and looked in the direction of Naruto. Naruto would speak for her every time like this. Naruto was the son of the Fourth Hokage. If he spoke for her, the assessment referee might let him He passed, but this time Naruto turned his head to the side and avoided it when faced with Sakura's gaze.

This made Sakura instantly furious and she cursed Naruto.

The reason why Naruto didn't speak for Sakura was because the assessment referee was right. If it were a real mission, Sakura's behavior would not only kill herself, but also her friends.

With his father's guidance, Naruto's outlook on life is very different from his previous life. He will no longer be like in the original plot, a standard licking dog with no right or wrong, only the so-called bond in his mind, and no overall view. No matter how sinful Sasuke's actions were and what the consequences would be.

Perhaps because of the change in status, Naruto had many more friends around him, and he was surrounded by people who recognized him.

Naruto suddenly raised his hand and said, "I would like to ask if I can continue to take the assessment."

The referee looked at Naruto and said, "If your goal is to graduate as a chunin, of course you can choose to continue participating."

"That's good!"

Naruto breathed a sigh of relief, he thought he wouldn't be able to take the exam.

At this time, Shikaku sighed and said: "Naruto, I won't accompany you. My goal is to pass the exam. Becoming a chuunin or something is too troublesome."

"Me too, the battle just now took a lot out of me." Choji also made the same choice as Shikaku.

Shino said: "It is enough for us to pass the assessment and become a ninja. If you want to graduate as a chuunin, you can only do it one-on-one. The next step is up to you."

"Naruto…"

Hinata was filled with worry and shouted softly.

After listening to everyone's words, Naruto grinned and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will definitely graduate as a chunin. Just wait for my news."

After saying that, Naruto left here and turned into the dense forest behind him.

Looking at Naruto's disappearing back, the assessment referee glanced sideways at the injured Anko next to him, and said with a smile: "Listen to me, don't underestimate these little guys. They are the most promising young generation, and their future Destined to be better than us.”

"Humph!"

Anko snorted lightly and rarely refuted.

Naruto jumped in the middle of the dense forest, and the big trees on both sides retreated quickly. His speed was very fast, because Naruto was a little anxious, and he was afraid that Sasuke had passed the test.

Sasuke rushed to the core area before him. According to time, if he had not encountered an opponent in the middle, Sasuke would have rushed to the core area by now.

Along the way, Naruto passed several battlefields, where examiners were fighting with the students. Naruto did not choose to help, except because this was the battle for the rest of the people, and he did not want to waste time here.

Soon, Naruto arrived at the core area. Compared to the outer area, most of the people in the core area were less crowded. Naruto walked inside for several minutes without even touching a single person.

After looking around, the forest was quiet, not even the sound of a bird flapping its wings. Naruto murmured in a low voice: "There's something wrong, it's too quiet around here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto suddenly jumped up and jumped to the side. The moment Naruto jumped up, two big yellow hands appeared on the ground where he was just standing.

Naruto landed on his feet and slid against the smooth ground for several meters before steadying his steps. He immediately looked up and looked into the shadows on the right, and saw an examiner wearing a tanuki mask walking out slowly, looking down at Naruto with his arms folded.

"I didn't expect that the opponent I was waiting for would be you. You are worthy of being the son of the Fourth Hokage to appear here so quickly."

Naruto frowned slightly when he heard the son of the Fourth Hokage being addressed: "I am me, Uzumaki Naruto, not the son of the Fourth Hokage."

Shiranui Genma heard the words and said with a smile: "You are the problem child of the Hokage family, but it doesn't matter. Go straight to the core area. It seems that your goal is to graduate as a chuunin."

Naruto was eager to try: "Is it okay to defeat you?"

Shiranui Genma shook his head: "You don't have to defeat me, as long as you can remain undefeated in my hands, that's fine."

Upon hearing this, a confident smile appeared on Naruto's face, he shouted low, and rushed towards Shiranui Genma.

"Up!"
