Chapter 1202 The Exam Begins
On the desk of the Sandaime was a letter from the Fifth Mizukage requesting to participate in the Chunin Exam. Although he was mentally prepared, the Sandaime still frowned, because in the eyes of these leaders, the Chunin Exam is not just a simple exam but a display of national strength and a contest with allies. Generally speaking, although every country can hold the Chunin Exam, the Chunin Exam held in Konoha is undoubtedly the most watched.
Because the Fire Country where Konoha is located is the center of the continent and is also the richest country, it has always been the most watched.
Moreover, a large part of the ninjas selected in the Chunin Exam will be arranged to enter the village's combat system. So for Duran, this is just a game, and for the leaders such as the Sandaime, this is a selection of reserve officers. Now the Water Country has come all the way to participate in the Chunin Exam of Konoha Village, probably because they want to show their strength. They want to use the opportunity of Konoha's Chunin Exam to attract more countries' mission commissions and take this opportunity to make money.
Do you agree or not? The Sandaime thought. Although there were conflicts between the Water Country and Konoha in the Third War, it was not to the point of death. The Hidden Mist Village has been closed for many years, and now the letters sent to it are full of help. If the ninja village does not have a large number of mission commissions, life will not be easy.
In fact, in the past few years, the third generation has felt that the atmosphere on the continent has become tense again, and other countries are beginning to reorganize their armaments and sharpen their knives, but this time, I don’t know who will fire the first shot.
From the overall situation, everyone is still in the preparation period, so it doesn’t matter if the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village agree to participate in the competition. Konoha can also take the opportunity to show its muscles to the Hidden Mist Village. If they finally realize the gap and cooperate with Konoha to form an alliance, it will be a good development.
The third generation made up his mind and immediately wrote a letter of consent and sent it back.
After receiving the letter, the Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village immediately sent Bai to lead several teams to participate in the Chunin Exam.
Konoha Village is still so peaceful, welcoming guests from all directions with his best side. Guests from Sand Village, Hidden Mist Village, Sound Village, Kusagakure Village, Rain Village, Taki Village and other countries came in droves, ready to show their skills in the Chunin Exam.
The number of participants in this Chunin Exam is also relatively large in the past years. There are 87 people from Konoha alone, 30 from Sand Village, 21 from Rain Village, 15 from Mist Village, 6 from Kusagakure Village, 6 from Takigakure Village, and 3 from Sound Village, a total of 168 people. That is to say, if a war breaks out, these people may be promoted to grassroots cadres of the army to participate in the war.
Naruto knew nothing about the Chunin Exam. He just felt that many outsiders came to the village, and Naruto also met the cold panda-eyed Gaara.
Although Gaara is almost the same age as Naruto, the murderous intent on his body makes Naruto and the other two feel chilled. Gaara's level is different from theirs, much higher.
"Damn, who is that guy? How can he be so arrogant in Konoha Village and bully our village?" It was obviously that panda-eyed ninja who looked down on their Konoha, but he had to let him go, unhappy. Naruto saw the contempt in Gaara's eyes.
"You should be thankful that we didn't have a conflict." Sasuke said coldly, "He is different from us. That ninja has killed more than one person."
"Who are they? They are so arrogant." Naruto still felt that Gaara was too unpleasant. He was a guest but he didn't know how to be polite.
"I'm afraid he came to take the Chunin Exam." Sasuke said. His father had already told him that there were more outsiders in the village these days and he should pay attention to safety. After knowing about the Chunin Exam, Sasuke decided to become a Chunin. He wanted the people in the village to admit that their Uchiha family was not just a traitor.
"Chunin Exam, what is that?" Naruto said he didn't understand.
Sakura was not very clear either, "Sasuke, is the Chunin Exam the exam that we Genin have to take?"
Sasuke nodded, "If Genin wants to upgrade his level, he must pass the Chunin Exam." In fact, it is not necessary. His brother did not pass the Chunin Exam, but was directly upgraded to Jonin in the work of the Anbu.
The Chunin Exam is really a joint military exercise between ninja villages, with more political significance than selection.
"Then shouldn't we participate too? But Kakashi-sensei didn't say anything." Naruto said he didn't know anything, how did the Chunin Exam start?
"Kakashi-sensei should tell us." Sasuke thought Kakashi would explain it to them, but he just hadn't done it yet.
"Sasuke is great, he knows a lot of information." Sakura was crazy again.
That's right, Kakashi came to explain the situation to the three disciples that day and asked them if they wanted to participate in the Chunin Exam: "This year's exam is not small, and it's unlikely that you will be promoted, but it's up to you to decide whether you want to participate. You three must reach a consensus before you can decide, either participate together or not."
"Kakashi-sensei, of course I'm going to participate." Naruto was the first to express his opinion.
"I'm going to participate too." Sasuke also hopes to work hard to show himself and wash away the grievances of the Uchiha family.
"I'm going to participate too." Sakura will definitely agree if Sasuke agrees, and Sakura will definitely oppose if Sasuke opposes. She always follows Sasuke's pace.
"Then sign it." Kakashi said that this exam was not easy, and he didn't know how many tests his three disciples could pass.
Konoha Village is very lively, with ninjas of different styles from all over the country gathered together. Of course, ninjas live on the edge of a knife, and there are also many ninjas who will hurt people if they disagree, which tests the security of the village. Some ninjas from other places even deliberately cause trouble to see the security situation of Konoha Village.
Ninjas from multiple departments of Konoha work together. The White Eye observes every corner of Konoha to find incidents, the Uchiha clan solves problems as quickly as possible, and the Anbu monitors in secret. In this way, although there are constant frictions, no major incidents occur.
So the Chunin Exam is finally here.
The first thing is to take the admission ticket to the examination location. From home, from the training ground, from the hotel, the young ninjas began to act.
"Godfather, I'm going out." Hinata's eighth team also took the exam. Hinata packed up and went out after breakfast.
Du Lanxin said that the candidates had all set off, and she should go out too. Her test will be after the written test, and it will be almost time to start this afternoon.
Let's go, we must have fun today.
The first level is to break the illusion and find the real examination location. Someone cast an illusion on the first floor of the Ninja School teaching building to make the candidates mistakenly believe that this was the exam location, but the real exam location was on the second floor.
Many Genin saw illusions for the first time, so they were naturally unable to distinguish them and were eliminated. Many people were eliminated at the beginning.
