Naruto: Blood Mist Escape

early morning

Kirigakure

On the rooftop of the Chunin Examination Building, hundreds of teenage ninjas wearing Kirigakure headguards gathered together in small groups of twos and threes, whispering, waiting for something.

There are five floors in the Chunin Exam Building. At the edge of the rooftop, Wuxin, Suiren, and Hozuki Mai are standing face to face in a triangle.

Wuxin roughly observed the nearby Genin, and found no one familiar. He was looking forward to the so-called Chunin Exam, but he was a little confused about the exam assembly place, so he asked the two teammates beside him softly:

"Hey, Suiren, Mai, did you take the Chunin Exam here before? The classroom down there looks a bit like a ninja school. The so-called Chunin Exam, isn't it a written test of liberal arts?"

Shui Lian has been a little solemn since she came to the examination room, and seems a little nervous. After hearing Wuxin's words, she nodded and replied:

"Last year's first Chunin Exam was indeed a written test, but it is said that the exam subjects change every year and no one can predict it."

"The first exam last year was a written exam, but don't worry, Shui Lian's theoretical results are very good. If it is a written exam, with Shui Lian here, we can pass it easily."

Mai Hozuki had a calm expression and was very composed about the upcoming exam.

"can."

After hearing the two people's answers, Wuxin felt a little relieved about his worries about the liberal arts exam.

boom!

Just as Mai Kizuna finished her words, a thick cloud of smoke suddenly appeared on the rooftop of the examination room. As the smoke dispersed, more than a dozen neatly dressed Mist Ninjas appeared on the stone steps at the front of the rooftop.

The leader was wearing a ninja vest, while the others were wearing somewhat strange green uniforms.

"Quiet!"

The leading vest ninja roared loudly, and along with the roar, a strong wind blew on the rooftop, causing more than a hundred Genin to stop whispering and look at the leader.

"I am the examiner for the first Chunin Exam, Katsuda Takatake!"

After the leading vest ninja introduced his identity and name, he fell silent. His ferocious eyes, filled with red veins, scanned the field as if looking for prey.

The Genin on the field were like lambs being stared at by tigers, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"63 teams? 189 Genin? That many people taking the exam this time?"

After a long time, Katsuta Takatake finally spoke again, but his words made the Genin in the field feel a little uneasy.

Wuxin and the other two were at the very edge of the team. They looked up at the examiners on the stone steps. When they heard about the number of people taking the exam, Wuxin had an idea and wrote down the number: 63 teams, 189 people.

“Rookies, it’s not that easy to become a Chunin captain.

The first exam I administer will eliminate half of the people."

The examiner Katsuda Takatake spoke in a deep tone, and his words surprised many of the Genin below.

Katsuta Takatake showed a Hidden Mist Village-style smile on his face, his eyes were cold, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he continued with a grin:

“I decided to make this test simpler. The question is running. Just follow my steps and reach the finish line.

There are 189 people. The first 94 who reach the finish line pass the exam, and the last 95 are eliminated. I will wait for the people behind me at the finish line for an hour.

The rules are simple. You are not allowed to attack others during the race. Do you understand?"

When the examiner Katsuda Takatake finished speaking, his voice turned into a roar, which was very intimidating and none of the Genin answered.

"Running? 189 people, first 94 pass? No rule like there's no team passing together?"

Wuxin heard the rules and his heart moved.

Wuxin, who lives in the Hidden Mist Village, often thinks of the many deeds of the Hokage and Konoha Village, such as team first and teammates first.

After living in the Hidden Mist Village for so many years, I have never heard of anything like emphasizing teamwork or caring about teammates. The Hidden Mist Ninjas only have missions.

After being taught by the jonin Murayama Yuto, Wuxin originally thought that only the life of a genin was like this. Unexpectedly, even the Chunin exam was like this, and you only needed to pass it by yourself, without the need for a team.

The scene was extremely quiet, and no one raised any doubts or questions for a long time.

"Since there are no objections, then, the exam begins!"

Seeing no one answered, Katsuta Takatake rudely announced the start, then turned to the right, jumped twice, jumped off the rooftop and started running.

boom!

More than a dozen other uniformed staff behind the examiner turned into smoke and disappeared.

When Wuxin and the other two saw the examiner Katsuda Takatake's actions, they immediately jumped down from the rooftop, used chakra to absorb their feet, and after landing, they followed Katsuda Takatake's steps.

call out!call out!call out!

Along with the sound of breaking air, many Genin took action and followed Katsuta Takatake.

Hundreds of people were running around in the village, creating a spectacular scene.

"The streets in the village are separated by cordons on both sides. It seems that this exam subject is not a spur-of-the-moment decision as the examiner said..."

Wuxin was walking on the street, glancing at the cordon beside the street, and realized that this so-called running test was not as casual as the examiner said.

The examiner in front, Katsuda Takatake, ran at a speed that was neither fast nor slow, but very even.

Over a hundred Genin candidates followed behind him without feeling any pressure.

After running around the village for about half an hour, Wuxin followed the examiner Katsuta Takatake to the gate of the Hidden Mist Village. Katsuta Takatake led a large group of Genin and rushed out of the gate of the Hidden Mist Village and left the village.

Wuxin and the others followed without hesitation and traveled through the plains of the Water Kingdom.

Wuxin and the other two were in the middle of a team of more than a hundred Genin. They ran non-stop for half an hour. For a ninja who could use chakra, it was not much pressure.

After leaving the village, I ran for about another half an hour.

The ninja walked about thirty kilometers in an hour, and many of the Genin were already starting to pant.

"It's been an hour, and the journey is thirty kilometers. Where is the end point?"

Wuxin had sweat stains on his forehead and felt a little confused. He glanced at Shuilian and Mai Guiden beside him. Their faces were one red and one white, and they were breathing heavily. Mai Guiden's face was a little pale.

The speed of the examiner Katsuda Takatake at the front did not change from beginning to end. He continued to move forward at a constant speed, neither fast nor slow.

Running non-stop for an hour is not an easy task for a ninja, and Wuxin realized that the test is not that simple.

After a long time, about half an hour later, starting from the Hidden Mist Village, the running time has been about one hour and thirty minutes, and the running distance has exceeded 40 kilometers. Along the way, we have encountered plains, forests, rivers, tunnels and all kinds of environments. Every time it feels like the end, it turns out not to be the end.

With no end in sight in this situation, the elite Mist Genin began to lose strength, and many of them fell down and stopped to rest.

“Drink, drink, I, uh…I, I, I can’t take it anymore, I, I need to take a rest! You guys run first!”
