Konoha's Shiranui Genma

"The Chuunin Exam is the main way for ninjas to advance to Chunin. In peacetime, it is usually twice a year, and there are often joint exams from multiple countries."

"Generally speaking, among the two exams held every year in peacetime, there will be one exam with particularly brutal competition. The elimination rate is extremely high, and casualties often occur, so there are fewer participants."

"This relatively cruel chuunin exam is commonly known as the gladiatorial arena. It is the epitome of the disputes between countries and has strong political and diplomatic significance. Therefore, the candidates who reach the end are often more likely to grow into jounin and more outstanding genin. Most of them tend to participate in this kind of arena." Mumu Changye said slowly.

"You should have a certain understanding of these situations of the Zhongnin exam in peacetime."

After a pause, he continued: "During the war, the Chunin Examination was only held once a year. The previous process was roughly the same as usual, but it was much more concise, and killing was strictly prohibited in the Forest of Death. Once discovered, the exam would be cancelled. Qualifications, otherwise it will be regarded as rebellion.”

Ebisu couldn't help but say: "In this way, wouldn't the wartime chuunin exam be very safe? Even if you fail, your life will not be in danger."

"No." Kime Nagaye shook his head, "It looks like this, but it is not the case. Because the main examination room for the wartime Chunin Examination is neither a classroom nor a forest of death, but a battlefield."

"battlefield"

"Yes, the wartime chunin exams will only go up to the preliminaries for the third exam, and the real third exam will be held on the battlefield. In short, only those who pass the first two exams and preliminaries can Only by passing the test of war can you obtain the status of chuunin."

Shiranui Genma asked: "What does the test of war specifically mean?"

"Complete a certain number of war missions." Kime Nagaye said, "The standard during the Second Ninja World War was 20 C-level war missions and 10 B-level war missions. If nothing else, it should be similar this time. .”

Ebisu opened his eyes wide: "30 missions, so many"

Mumu Changye smiled and said: "The counting of war missions is different from that of ordinary missions. If you complete it once, it will be recorded at least twice or even more. So in fact, you should only need to complete it about ten times."

Shiranui Genma seemed to have thought of something: "The benefits of the wartime chuunin exams that Mr. Nagaye just mentioned should be related to this counting method."

Mume Changye nodded: "That's right."

"In principle, only by becoming a chuunin can you be qualified to participate in S-level and A-level missions, as well as lead B-level missions. The number of completed S-level and A-level missions is a key indicator for promotion to Jonin, and it is also a measure of ninjas. An important reference for qualifications.”

Mume Changye then slowly said: "So, taking and passing this wartime Chunin exam will allow you to make full use of the next war period, quickly accumulate the number of high-level task completions, and facilitate future promotion and development. "

He paused for a moment: "Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. With the strength of the three of you, it should be easy to pass the Chunin Exam, but after passing it, you will inevitably face more dangerous enemies than before, and the possibility of casualties will naturally increase. improve."

"What are you going to choose now?"

The three of them, Shiranui Genma, looked at each other, and their faces soon showed some determination: "Teacher, we choose to take the exam."

"Okay." Mumu Changye nodded and said with a smile, "I will report your names this afternoon."

"The written test is at 4 am on April 2nd at the Ninja School. There are still a few days left, so let's hurry up and learn something."

Later, Kime Nagaye explained some theoretical knowledge to the three of them, and then separated a shadow clone to lead Akai and Ebisu to practice chakra control and illusion respectively.

Shiranui Genma began to practice his first B-level fire escape ninjutsu "Fire Release Fire Dragon Flame Bullet".

Kime Nagaye is not a fire escape ninja, so he can't teach much fire escape. Fortunately, this ninjutsu is recorded in his father's notes, so he can learn it by himself.

"Fire Release Fire Dragon Flame Bomb" is almost the most practical among the B-level fire release ninjutsu. It consumes moderate chakra, has a high flame temperature, and attacks from the left, front, and right directions, making it difficult for the enemy to evade.

Even at the level of the third Hokage, this ninjutsu is often used in battle.

It can be said that Fire Dragon Flame Bullet is a must-have ninjutsu for every fire escape ninja.

As a B-level ninjutsu, the difficulty of Fire Dragon Flame Bullet is still relatively high, obviously much higher than C-level ninjutsu.

After practicing all morning, Shiranui Genma was not able to achieve even half of his appearance. Not to mention the fire path branching, even the minimum temperature and scale could not be reached.

It seemed that as he had expected, with his current level, it would take several months to master a B-level ninjutsu.

In a few days, apart from rest, the ninth group was intensely studying and training.

Shiranui Genma's fire dragon flame bombs are progressing slowly, and Akai's chakra control skills are about the same. Even if he works harder, he still can't walk smoothly on the water, and he will fall into the water if he moves a little too much.

Among the three, Ebisu made a breakthrough in genjutsu and learned a simple genjutsu attack. He finally had his own "fighting style" and no longer had to fight with kunai throughout the battle.

A few days flew by.

During this period, the Kingdom of Wind issued an ultimatum to the Kingdom of Fire, stating that if Hatake Sakumo's body and compensation were not handed over, war would be officially declared.

Subsequently, the Kingdom of Fire declared war on the Kingdom of Wind, and the two great powers entered a state of hostility. Local conflicts continue, and large-scale wars are about to break out.

June 643, 4, the Land of Fire.

It's about eight o'clock in the morning.

The genin who participated in the wartime Chuunin exams brought their own documents to the ninja school to take the written test of the Chunin exams. Naturally, the three of Shiranui Genma were among them.

After entering the examination room, the papers were handed out, and the start of the examination was approaching soon.

The invigilator in the examination room where Genma Shiranui was located was a young man with a fair face and a square face, with a meticulous expression.

He glanced around, coughed twice, and said solemnly: "I would like to emphasize the discipline again. No one should try such stupid behavior as cheating. Once cheating is discovered, the whole group will receive zero points."

Two minutes later, the bell rang.

"The exam begins"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of writing in the classroom.

The questions were not complicated. They were similar to the general knowledge papers in the graduation exam. They just included some basic knowledge from other courses. Shiranui Genma didn't even pay attention to them at all.

It took more than ten minutes to fill in the multiple-choice questions and fill-in-the-blank questions one by one, and then he turned his attention to the answer questions at the back.

"what."

As soon as he glanced over, Shiranui Genma's face showed a somewhat strange look.

Looking at the third answer question, he couldn't help but frown slightly and thought to himself:

"Who asked this question?"
