Naruto: The Iceman of the Senju Family

"This is the end of the second Chunin Selection Examination!"

At exactly 7 noon on July 5th, with a loud announcement from a chuunin staff member, the door of the middle tower also closed with a "bang".

Then the chuunin raised his head and said to the camera:

"Mr. Examiner, 12 people are confirmed to have passed the second exam. Over!"

……

Half an hour later, the 12 candidates, the leading Jonin, and all the invigilators gathered in an empty hall.

'Ah~ This Weiyin... seems to be the one Xiao Li stood on...'

Looking at the huge stone handprints behind the Jonin, Senju Mayuki finally had a subtle feeling of "connecting with the plot" in her heart. It has been more than a year since this happened, and it is not easy...

Looking around, there are four teams present, namely Konoha 2 and Sunagakure 2.

This result seems to be what many people expected.

After all, the most candidates in these two villages are facts. Even if they can't cooperate openly, they can easily clear out those small villages once they make up their mind.

As for the end, the two teams in Konoha Village saw little hope of winning at 6:9. The team that failed to collect the scrolls had no choice but to consider themselves unlucky and let the other team bring 1 sky, 2 earth, and a total of 3 scrolls. Entering the tower:

Although they are allies, it does not mean that candidates will be willing to give up their scrolls to others to advance~

They also want Sunagakure to carry forward his style. Isn't it because there are so few people that he can't beat him...

Because of this, the candidates in Sunagakure Village finally had 3 heavens and 2 earths, and could only give up one team, so that the two villages reached a balance in terms of numbers.

Ashamed to say,

When they heard the staff say that these candidates had plowed the entire practice field several times in order to find themselves, Senju Mayuki and the three of them were a little confused!

This is so...

Can it be ignited purely by thinking?

Therefore,

When the candidates learned the truth from the staff that "the special scroll team had arrived here half an hour after the exam started," the ninth class remained silent in the face of the shock and anger on the faces of those guys. , and express understanding of this...

I thought I was working very hard, but in the end I was fighting against the air...

The most important thing is that these are all said in front of the owner!

It’s so embarrassing…

……

"First of all, congratulations to everyone for passing the second exam."

At 12:40, the invigilator of the second session stood up first.

"Next, I would like to ask the Third Hokage to explain to you the rules of the third exam. Please listen carefully!"

After speaking, he turned around and bowed his head slightly towards the main podium.

"Then, Hokage-sama, I'll leave it to you."

"Ah."

The Third Hokage nodded, and then walked to the front of the main podium under the gaze of everyone,

"Hmm..."

As usual, I cough first, then take a puff of my old cigarette to remind everyone that class is about to start!

"Before explaining the rules of the third game, I think there is one thing that needs to be made clear to you first, and that is the real purpose of this exam!"

"?"

After hearing this sentence, most of the candidates had puzzled looks on their faces.

Isn't the Chuunin Exam just for selecting Chunin? What other purpose could it have?

"Have any of you ever thought about why so many villages need to be united to take the exam?"

"Isn't it to increase the friendship between the villages?"

One of the Konoha candidates from the other team shouted loudly,

Although Sunagakure didn't say anything, he couldn't help but nodded after hearing it, and he obviously thought so.

Even Izumi and Hyuga Tokuma.

Only Senju Mayuki showed no reaction at all.

He couldn't give a specific answer, but he remembered that it must be related to things like showing the strength of the village and competing for the number of tasks.

"You are right to say that, but it is not everything."

Speaking of this, the Third Hokage took a long breath of smoke, and after a while, he continued to say under the gaze of all the candidates:

"In fact, this exam is a microcosm of the war between the Allied Powers."

"what!"

"What does this mean?"

There was some commotion in the group of candidates below.

However, the Third Hokage didn't pay attention, but with a flick of his tongue, the class started!

"You all know that there have been several large-scale wars between countries in history, and after each war, it took a long time for each country to restore its national strength."

"In order to avoid such a lose-lose situation from happening again, the Joint Chunin Examination came into being to transfer the disputes between countries to this small venue."

"In addition to the function of selecting chunin, this exam is also a stage where ninjas from all over the world fight with their lives to show their national prestige!"

"At the venue of the third exam, there will be many famous names and princes and nobles from many countries coming to watch. These audiences hold a large amount of entrusted tasks and funds."

"If there is a big difference in strength, then the stronger country will receive more tasks and favors in the future, and it will also be able to take more initiative in subsequent diplomacy with neighboring countries!"

"but!"

After hearing this, Quan suddenly couldn't help but ask: "Even so, the candidates don't have to fight with their lives, right?"

This remark immediately aroused the approval of many candidates.

They all understood the "death consent form" signed before.

After all, it is such a dangerous place, and casualties are possible.

But I have never thought about actively killing my opponent!

"Don't misunderstand what I mean."

The Third Hokage's expression gradually became serious,

"This exam is a stage to show the strength of one's country's ninjas to others, and the strength of ninjas can only be fully demonstrated in desperate battles."

"This is a battle of risking one's life for one's own dreams and the prestige of the country, so it has a more sacred and noble meaning!"

"..."

The scene fell silent for a moment.

His own performance will actually determine the future of the entire country...

Thinking of this sentence, every candidate felt that the burden on their shoulders suddenly became extremely heavy!

Can't lose!

Never lose!

Even death!He will also die on the stage of battle! ! !

"Hmm,"

Seeing the little guys' increasingly solemn expressions, the Third Hokage couldn't help but nodded secretly.

"Unlike the previous two exams, the third exam is a one-on-one battle based on individuals."

"what?!"

All the candidates' eyes instantly turned to the leftmost column.

That guy is so strong!

I also rested for several days!

Who can beat him one on one with his current tired state?

"Oh, right."

Seemingly aware of their concerns, the Third Hokage reminded him again:

"After all, they represent the fighting strength of their respective countries. For the sake of fairness, the third game will be held in one month. What we need to do now is to finalize the game list first. This month is not only to give you a rest, but also to allow you to take good care of your opponents. Be prepared."

'? '

Senju Mayuki was confused for a moment.

No first qualifier?

But when I think about it carefully, I think it makes sense.

With 12 people, the Manchu Communist Party can only make up 6 groups of opponents. The battle between ninjas usually ends quickly. If the number of people is small, the audience will come so far to watch it~

"Turn on the display."

At this time, the examiner of the second session took over the following work at the signal of the Third Hokage.

Following his order, a stone slab suddenly "buzzed" up on the wall behind the huge handprint, revealing a huge electronic display.

"Two names will be randomly displayed on this display screen, and the selected list will be the lineup for the official match one month later."

After a brief explanation, the examiner then said to the headset:

"start!"

Beep beep beep~

Deng!

Jieliang vs Yingshuhui

"?"

Quan followed the crowd's gaze and looked,

"Ah~ Both of them are from Konoha."

Group [-]: Hyuga Tokuma vs Mizusawa Hirokichi

Group [-]: Izumi Uchiha vs...

Fourth group……

fifth……

Group [-]: Senju Mayuki vs. True Tree

"!"

All the candidates' eyes turned to the girl from Sunagakure Village.

In fact, when the list of the fifth group came out, some people were already gloating about the misfortune, and some began to worry~

Izumi winked at Senju Mayuki with an expression that she didn't know what it meant.

"Oh, it's the student of the Sunagakure female jounin, and she's still a girl~"

"..."

silence,

Silence is gold.

"So,"

The Third Hokage took another puff of cigarette.

"This list will be sent to the daimyo and princes of various countries immediately. In the month before the audience arrives, please work harder and improve!"
