I have a bunch of relatives who want to be Hokage

Ohnoki originally also had objections.

To be honest, Ohno was too lazy to watch the third exam because Iwa Ninja had been cleared. He was not interested in the one-month window period and just wanted to end it as soon as possible.

But seeing Luo Sha's objection, he changed his mind.

He suddenly felt that the third exam was actually quite interesting.

This third-generation Tsuchikage immediately explained to the young people present what it means to be a shadow person and why he is called "Onoki of the Two Scales" or "full of martial virtue and repeated leaps and bounds" First Shadow".

The thoughts of the great Third Tsuchikage-sama were so pure that even the genin present could see it - it would be a pity not to have the Iwa nin to see it, but it would be even more of a pity not to see the Suna ninja being unlucky!

So, three to one, the decision was passed to take a one-month holiday.

Just like that, on the first day of the holiday, Uchiha Shingen took five Konoha genin out for special training amid everyone's "blessings".

As for why there are five.

Teaching four is teaching, and teaching five is teaching. After about a week, Uchiha Shingen, who felt that he could not be alone without a vacation, ran back once in the middle and took Aburame Shiguro away.

To put it in a good name, your children are so promising, are you embarrassed to fish for them?

The Aburame clan also thought it made sense, so Aburame Shiguro, who was playing with bugs at home, also enjoyed a "blessing".

Now, the January period has arrived, and the candidates who went out for secret training have begun to return to Konoha Hidden Village.

The examination room has been fully prepared by the Konoha Administration Department in this month. Everything is ready except for the candidates.

Ninja Village usually holds large-scale events in the open-air gymnasium.

For example, ninja-themed competitions are very common.

After all, the village itself sometimes organizes activities, which has a very good effect on promoting harmony and friendship among the ninjas in the village, and the villagers will also like such activities.

Especially in this time and space, Konoha's finances were very good, and the fourth generation era focused on infrastructure construction. The newly built gymnasium was very large and could accommodate more spectators.

Eight genin will compete here.

Different from the preliminaries, in this round, the examiner cannot interfere with the examination process.

Even if someone is killed, the examiner cannot interfere unless the victor gives up the killing or agrees to the opponent's surrender.

It is impossible for Konoha Hidden Village to break the rules on its own under the gaze of everyone.

Just like Uchiha Shingen, who blatantly intervened to save the genin of his own village, don't even think about it in this case, otherwise it will damage the village's reputation among the daimyo of various countries. This is a loss that the ninja village cannot accept.

In other words, no overt intervention.

Everyone in Konoha Hidden Village obviously has a special trust in Uchiha Shingen's ability to carry out small tricks secretly.

This is not just the idea of ​​the two Hokages.

The entire jounin class thought so.

Especially the Konoha ninjas who were present during the qualifiers particularly agreed with this.

At that time, Uchiha Shingen secretly soaked his own sand from the floor, and defused Gaara's most fatal blow against Rock Lee in the martial arts arena that was covered with yellow sand at that time.

If Luo Sha hadn't pointed it out, no one would have noticed.

At that time, only Rasa and Namikaze Minato noticed Uchiha Shingen's movements. Rasa was very familiar with Sand Magnetic Release, and Namikaze Minato sensed Uchiha Shingen's chakra.

So everyone thinks that Shingen is a god who does small tricks!

He could definitely make small moves without showing any signs of it, and eliminate the possibility of these outstanding genin on his side suffering serious injuries that would affect their future ninja careers.

Of the five genin, four were his students, so they were not afraid that he would not try his best.

The third round of exams officially begins one week after the end of the January period.

The audience, who were looking forward to this exam with great anticipation, had already arrived at the stadium early in the morning.

Among these people, the villagers of Konoha and ordinary people such as tourists and businessmen from outside Konoha account for the majority. The rest are ninjas from Konoha and other ninja organizations, plus nobles from various countries, which together constitute the general population. audience.

The Kages, leaders, special envoys and invited important guests who directly participated in this joint chunin exam were arranged in special seats on the top floor, where they could have a bird's eye view of the entire gymnasium.

Uchiha Shingen arrived at the venue early in the morning.

But he could only stand in the field and wait.

There's nothing you can do about it, the job of being an examiner is energy-consuming and boring.

And he, the examiner, is also very popular.

The name of Konoha White Ghost resounds throughout the ninja world, and he is a well-known figure. For many people, they have only heard of his name but never seen him.

When Uchiha Shingen first arrived, there was even a daimyo from a country who came to greet him accompanied by his attendants.

Fortunately, with the entrance of several Kages, Uchiha Shingen was finally clean.

As the sun rises, the morning fog disappears, and the clouds in the blue sky continue to stretch and change.

It's nice weather, perfect for fighting.

The candidates finally entered the venue one by one.

They were somewhat surprised to see that the examiner was Uchiha Shingen.

Gaara's expression didn't change.

Temari looked a little concerned.

The genin of Konoha have obviously gained an extra layer of confidence.

Gui Deng Shui Yue's mischievous smile subsided.

He remembered what Momochi Zabuza told him - Uchiha Shingen of Konoha Hidden Village looked normal on the surface, but was actually a neurotic and very troublesome.

Don't mess with it.

In the audience, there were also people looking at Uchiha Shingen.

Uchiha Obito and Orochimaru were both sitting in the audience at this time.

They all dressed up as Konoha ninjas.

If Orochimaru is a technology infiltrator, Uchiha Obito is a cheater, and Kamui directly enters the village.

Well, so Orochimaru is actually only the only one on a technical level, and there is an unskilled Uchiha Obito.

Looking at Uchiha Shingen who was leading the candidates to greet the audience, Uchiha Obito silently cheered himself up in his heart.

This time, he will break the curse of being unlucky wherever Uchiha Shingen is!

[Xingen, just look at it! 】

Orochimaru, who was sitting with him, seemed to sense something. He turned his head and looked at Uchiha Obito.

"Are you nervous?"

"I'm so nervous!"

"Well, don't be so excited, the game hasn't started yet."

After a brief conversation, Orochimaru ignored him.

He only silently labeled Uchiha Obito as a "dead duck with a tough mouth" in his heart.

At the special table, the Four Great Shadows and the special envoy of Yunyin Village, Ye Yuefu, looked at the scene and were also talking.

"Let Shingen-kun serve as the examiner. Hokage-sama, I understand your desire to protect the genin of your village." Rasa said, "But this is a bit shameless."

Making small moves in front of the few of them, Luo Sha said that people these days are really becoming more and more careless.

"Kazekage, don't talk about such a natural thing." Onoki said, "Don't you have similar arrangements when you hold the Chuunin Exams?"

Luo Sha ignored Ohnoki.

This stinky old man is so mean when it comes to voting.

Ye Yuefu didn't speak, just looked at Uchiha Shingen's figure.

Although he is the special envoy representing Kumogakure, he is not qualified to participate in the ordinary chat between several Kages.

For this operation, he recommended himself to gain qualifications.

After all, he, Takayama Feizang, and Darui are now in a stalemate. If they want to gain an advantage, they can only rely on external factors.

[That's the White Ghost...Huh, it doesn't look like much either! 】

Yozuki Fu is a complete Ninja Taijutsu route. The path he takes is completely based on the style of the Fourth Raikage. As a rookie in Kumogakure Village in recent years, he is the best master of the Thunder Chakra mode in Hidden Umo Village. people.

He even learned the Hell Thrust and Shibon Gunshou, and is considered to be the most likely talent to reproduce the Hell Thrust and the Four Bonshou.

"Kazekage-sama is joking. As the organizer, Konoha will certainly not break the rules." Namikaze Minato smiled.

On today's occasion, he was responsible for accompanying these Kages, and the Third Hokage ran downstairs to chat with the daimyo.

"It's almost time, let's announce the start of the game."

Minato Namikaze stood up from his chair, walked to the railing, faced the candidates and the audience below, and began to speak.

"Dear guests! Thank you for gathering here to participate in the Chunin Selection Examination held in our Hidden Leaf Village. Now the eight contestants who have passed the pre-selection will conduct the official selection competition." Through the chakra, Namikaze Minato's voice was very loud. The loudspeaker was smoothly amplified to the whole audience, "Please watch it carefully! I announce that the game has begun!"

Chapter 17: Be Prepared

The Hokage is the Hokage, and as soon as Namikaze Minato finished speaking, the gymnasium was filled with a fiery atmosphere.

As for the situation of the candidates, overwhelming publicity had begun as early as one month before the official examination began.

Of course, on the surface, Konoha Hidden Village just sent a text message. The content was full of harmony and friendship. The whole text was about friendship first and competition second.

The main force of the promotion is the various betting teams.

For example, Gaara, they gave him many nicknames, such as "Devil of the Sand", "The Lonely King of the Desert", "A Genius Ninja that Sunagakure has never seen in a hundred years" and so on.

There is even a somewhat superficial nickname, "You are Feng'er and I am Sha", but I have not found out who passed this nickname without any murderous intent at all.

But he seems to be very popular with women. Many people like this young ninja who always has a cool expression. They think Gaara is very cute.

After the market feedback was in place, some gossips emerged from nowhere, such as "the tragic childhood of a genius ninja", "this ninja was obviously too talented but was forced to be alone", "the child of the sand who cannot shed tears", etc. The short story collection was spread, and Gaara became undoubtedly the most popular female contestant in this Chuunin Exam.

If Gaara is like this, no one else can escape.

For example, the setting of "Ghost Light, Water Moon" is about a young man who has lost his family and fights to revive his family. This story is very suitable for the taste of a lot of small nobles, and they resonate with it, and they have become the main force in betting on "Ghost Light, Water Moon".

Uzumaki Naruto has a similar setting, but instead of a family being destroyed, there is more of a strong young character of "the baby is suffering but the baby doesn't tell, not only doesn't tell but also giggles every day", although the effect is not as outstanding as Gaara. , also has a group of fans.

The setting of Uchiha Sasuke is more powerful, it is directly like "a genius ninja who loves calligraphy and wants to be a calligrapher, but is ruthlessly suppressed by his authoritarian parents who force him to become a ninja. If he fails the exam, he will not be able to touch the writing brush for the rest of his life" and so on.

But this old-fashioned setting, in which normal people feel that they have no inner fluctuations at first glance and are only worthy of throwing themselves on the street until they die, has become popular among a certain group of people.

A group of great nobles had a deep emotional resonance with Uchiha Sasuke! There is even a famous name from a country among them!

As for whether it is fake, these nobles said, please shut up! How can you, who is from a small family and have a small business, understand the pain of those of us from a big family! We’ve all been there! ?

One daimyo said that back then he had dreamed of becoming a sculptor, but his family thought he was not doing his job properly and killed him outright.

This young man named Uchiha Sasuke is the son of the leader of the Uchiha clan, so he is the heir apparent to us! Of course the top wealthy families in the ninja world have the same suffering as the rest of us! We are all in the same circle!

I don’t have to say anything, this is a young man in the industry, I must support him!

Several major characters, combined with a unique and rich plot, basically determine the flow of funds for this Chunin Exam.

Of course, this flow cannot satisfy everyone, and there will always be people who are dissatisfied with everything.

After they hired ninjas to investigate, these ninjas who were patting their chests and saying "I have it all" at the beginning stopped as soon as they found some clues.

As a result, this discordant voice disappeared, leaving only everyone following the trend.

In general, the funders sympathized, the gambling businessmen laughed their heads off, and the Minister of Konoha Administration also breathed a sigh of relief.

That's it, several characters are very easy to use, and the response is not only not lower than expected, but also greatly exceeded. The income earned is enough to cover the cost of holding the joint chuunin exam. The profit is certain, and the difference between making more and less is different.

As expected of Lord Shingen, he has many tricks!

At this time, the Lord Shingen he was talking about was showing the candidates their battle order while basking in the sun.

"Come on, come on, everyone can see clearly, this is your battle order." Uchiha Shingen unfolded the battle schedule to the eight candidates, "This month, the intelligence you have collected and the analysis you have done, will you be able to do it this time?" It’s up to you to put it to use.”

Gaara didn't look at the list. He had already gone through all the opponents. The intelligence agencies of the entire Sunagakure Village were serving him.

If the young ninjas of Konoha were not specially trained by a few overly powerful ninjas, he might not have the intention to attack them unprepared.

This is not a rule violation.

The third test started at the end of the preliminaries.
