Konoha's Shiranui Genma

The chief examiner Tuqiaoshan said before that the arrangement of opponents in this qualifier is not random, but "determined by factors such as written test results, task experience, second test results, and instructor opinions."

So according to common sense, the purpose of this preselection should be to make the weak withdraw through the strong and weak duel, so as to avoid too many meaningless casualties in the third test.

Akai vs. Obito, Ebisu vs. Mizuki are all typical strong and weak duels.

As the tail of the crane, it goes without saying that Obito is poor in strength. If Akai wants to beat him, he should not have any pressure.

As for Mizuki, although Shiranui Genma doesn't know him, judging from the original situation where he was still a chuunin teacher in the ninja school in his twenties and thirties, Mizuki's current strength is probably not very good.

In Ebisu's original work, it is a special Jnin. Now that he has had a more solid foundation due to the additional physical training, Katsu Mizuki should be very relaxed.

But Asma's strength is not bad.

Not only is it not bad, it can even be called excellent, especially in terms of physical skills. Asuma is one of the people of his generation who is second only to Akai. He is on the same level as Shiranui Genma, and sometimes slightly stronger.

Although if there is a fight, Shiranui Genma is still sure to win.

But there is no doubt that Asma is not a good-for-nothing like Obito and Mizuki, and the confrontation between the two of them is not at all a typical strong-weak matchup like Akai vs. Obito, Ebisu vs. Mizuki.

what is happening

Could it be that the purpose of the qualifiers is not what I thought?

Shiranui Genma thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason. He could only shake his head and asked: "When will the three of us come on stage?"

"Xuanjian, you are in the fourth show this afternoon, Xiao Shou is in the third show tomorrow morning, I am, I am." Akai scratched his head, "When did I appear?"

""

Akai struggled for a while, then squeezed back and reconfirmed the information of the three people.

"I'm the first one the day after tomorrow."

About half an hour passed, and there were far fewer people nearby, and only a few came to have a look.

Asma Sarutobi and Kuroyuki walked next to each other, talking and laughing all the way, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious. Another teammate, Hasegawa River, was indifferent throughout the whole process, walking on the other side of Asma expressionlessly.

"My brother told me that the third test of the wartime chuunin exam is the same as before, with 20 c-level missions and 10 b-level missions. War missions are usually recorded about three times, so ten missions should be That's almost it." Asma said.

Yuhi Hong seemed a little worried: "I don't know how many battles there will be in ten missions."

"Fighting is the bounden duty of ninjas, so there is nothing to worry about. When we meet in a narrow road, the brave will win. The more worried we are, the easier it is to lose." Sarutobi Asuma said, "For example, now, I am not worried about the next duel at all."

Yuhi Hong smiled slightly: "Because you are strong, but others are different."

Hearing her compliment, Asuma couldn't help but blush slightly with pride, scratched her head and laughed twice.

As the three of them walked, Yuhi Hong suddenly waved to a familiar figure not far away: "Shizune"

Jing Yin, who was looking at the list, turned his head to the side: "Hong, you are here."

"Shizune, who is your opponent?" Yuhi Hong ran over.

"I don't know, he's a genin from Taki Ninja Village."

Shizune pointed at the notice, then suddenly covered a certain name and said with a smile: "Asuma, guess who your opponent is."

"I" Asuma was startled, then shrugged nonchalantly, "Whatever."

Shizune took her hand away and looked at him with a smile.

Shiranui Genma Sarutobi Asuma, the fourth show in the afternoon of April 4th

Seeing this line of words, the smile on Asma's face gradually disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, anger surged into his brows, and he clenched his fists: "Huh, damn old guy"

After finishing speaking, Asma left the hall angrily, and went straight to the stairs without looking back, leaving Yuhihong and Jingyin looking at each other.

In a certain room on the top floor of the tower, Hiruzaru Sarutobi was sitting on a chair, talking with the young man in front of him.

"Sunagakure has been in frequent contact with Amegakure recently," Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a frown as he looked at the document in his hand.

The young man standing in front of him looked to be about twenty-five years old, with a beard, and his appearance looked quite similar to him.

The young man nodded: "Yes, father. Judging from the recent intelligence, there is a clear tendency for Sand Yin and Ume Yin to unite. The two sides are likely to form an alliance and start a war with Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen held his forehead slightly and said: "Over there in the country of Kawa"

Sarutobi Takaaki said: "Father, I don't think Kawakuni is anything to worry about. But the current situation in Konoha is very bad. The four major countries seem to be intending to jointly target us this time. At least Sunagakure and Kumogakure will definitely take action. Iwagakure, Kirigakure may stand by and watch, or he may add insult to injury.”

"Alas" Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, rubbed his temples, and said, "Takaaki, what do you think we should do now?"

"I think we should at least win over Iwagakure and Kirigakure. Otherwise, even if Konoha's strength is far superior to other countries, most of the four-lane openers will still lose."

After a pause, Sarutobi Takaaki was about to say more, when he heard a "bang", the door of the room was kicked open.

Asuma Sarutobi came in angrily, ran to Hiruzen Sarutobi, and slammed the table: "Did you arrange for me to face off against Shiranui Genma?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head: "No."

Asma never expected that he would deny it. Her face turned red and she almost couldn't breathe: "How dare you pat your conscience and say that this was not arranged by you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not answer, but sighed slightly: "Asuma, the battlefield is not that fun. The situation is very dangerous now. It is easy to be sacrificed in the third exam, you"

Sarutobi Asuma slapped the table again and interrupted: "Why can't others do it, but I can't? You, a Hokage, can't even set an example by sending your own son to the battlefield."

"Even if it is someone else, if the first son has already gone to the battlefield, I will not force him to send the second son to the battlefield." Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Asuma, you are still young. When you grow up, big"

"It's the same thing again, it's the same thing again"

Asuma seemed to be stimulated and jumped to her feet: "I don't care, I'm going to the battlefield, I'm going to take the third exam."

"Don't be so impulsive, Asuma, father is also doing your best," Sarutobi Takaaki said.

"It's no use trying to persuade me." Asma waved his hand, looking like he was indifferent, "I only have one request, which is to take the third exam."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette, was silent for a while and said, "I'm not letting you go. As long as you can defeat your opponent, of course you can continue to take the exam."
