Chapter 349 Meow, Pounce
Although the most serious emergency occurred, due to the restraint of both parties, the second Chunin Examination was not greatly affected, and it continued step by step...
The previous situation was definitely a very restrained situation for Hagoromo, after all, he did not bombard the first Hokage.
The fact that the Chuunin Exam was so thrilling but not dangerous was partly due to Hagoromo's "restraint", and partly thanks to the protection of Konoha Anbu after the incident.
It has to be said that whenever Konoha encounters a dangerous situation like this, the only one that really supports the continued operation of the Hokage system is the ANBU organization. Although ANBU ninjas often behave very fragile, it is undeniable that they are Konoha's most elite power group is also the Hokage's most reliable subordinate.
The first half of the second round of the Chunin Exam can be simply called the "Scroll Battle", which lasts for a total of 72 hours. Within these 72 hours, only the scrolls of heaven and earth can be obtained at the same time and arrive at the designated location to be regarded as passing the exam, otherwise It is eliminated.
In fact, what happened in the outside world has little to do with these candidates. The battle between Hagoromo and the First Hokage of the Dirty Earth only lasted in minutes from beginning to end. After that fight is over, how should they take the exam? How to take the test.
After three days, the genin who passed the preliminary selection have been freshly released.
After passing the previous exams, there are not many genin who are still qualified to stand on the road to chuunin promotion. With the limited number of people, the second half of the next exam and the third exam are scheduled one month later. The exam routine is actually the same, that is "solo"...
This kind of competition that fully embodies the spirit of competition is commonly known as... ahem, heads-up.
"Hagoromo, you're a little late."
It was impossible for Hagoromo to stay outside the examination venue for the past three days, not to mention the invasion incident caused by Orochimaru. Therefore, when he came to the examination venue again, some of the idle Konoha jounin had already Already waiting there.
At this time, the exam has also begun.
"Everyone came very early." Yuyi greeted them, although what he wanted to ask more was whether they were all idle...
For genin, the first two exams are already quite difficult, but in this case, there is still no one in Konoha's Hagoromo Class, Kakashi Class, Asuma Class, Yuhi Benefit Class and even last year's Kaiban Class. The exceptional breakthrough has come here, although the process is not the same.
For example, the three people in the future almost crushed them all the way. Although they were not the first to complete the exam, that was because they didn't even bother to earn such a ranking.
In contrast, the Asma class and the red class had some twists and turns, and they seemed to have passed the first two rounds of exams with stumbling and thrilling success.
"How does that go?"
The first person to greet Hagoromo just now was Asuma, and now the person who asked the latter question was Kakashi, and his question made several people around him prick up their ears.
Obviously they are also very concerned about what is happening, and the jonins have also heard about Orochimaru's invasion.
"It's no problem anymore." Yuyi said vaguely.
He really couldn't say much about this kind of thing on this occasion, because there were too many "foreigners", and it was best not to say anything that could not be said on this occasion.
Look at Sunagakure over there. If Hagoromo hadn't suppressed his own chakra as a precaution, someone might have started to stir up trouble again at this time.
But now, three days later, there will indeed be no more problems. When the first generation appeared, Hagoromo was fighting from the front, the Sandaime and Tsunade were on the outside to guide them, and Jiraiya was suppressing them in the village. This kind of trinity Naturally, no big accident will happen, unless there is a traitor among the three parties.
The biggest impact of this incident on the Chunin Examination was that the Hokage's speech originally planned before the second half of the second exam was canceled. Even the Sandaime Hokage and the quasi-Gudaime did not arrive at the scene. The exam has already started.
The dueling arena for genin is different from that of Hagoromo. The former does not require a large space, so the place where the exam is now held is a not too big indoor space. The first floor of this space is for martial arts performance. Field, and Hagoromo and the others were in the circular corridor on the second floor, where they could easily watch the battle below.
As for Mirai, Naruto and even the other Konoha genin, they were currently opposite the teachers. After seeing Hagoromo's arrival, Mirai just waved to him in the distance and did not come over.
Hagoromo looked up and glanced at the "match list" that had been arranged. He had to say that some of the games were quite interesting. Hagoromo even felt that this arrangement was full of bad taste.
For example, this is the case with the competition currently going on. This is the internal fight between the largest ninja sect in Konoha... Hyuga Hinata versus Hyuga Neji.
Although Neji was stronger than Hinata, this competition felt a bit mocking.
The current relationship between Neji and Hinata is a bit similar to the relationship between Shiro and Kimimaro in the future. Since his father has not died, Neji's "cynicism" is limited to a limited level. At least this kind of competition Among them, there will never be any violent beating of the girl.
Neji didn't have much objection to the arrangements within the clan, and he couldn't resist even if he didn't have any major objections.
Although Neji is known as a genius, due to his status as a separate family, his usage methods have been limited since he was a child. He was trained as Hinata's bodyguard. Although the two are very similar in blood, they have different styles. Within the stubborn and conservative Hyuga clan, the status of the two is very different.
In this realistic situation, can he defeat Hinata openly and honestly?
Well, he still won, but quite softly. Although it was Soft Fist vs. Soft Fist, given the current level between Hinata and Neji, he couldn't lose even if he wanted to. Besides, his somewhat rigid character was not someone who would deliberately lose.
So the battle between the two Hyuga ended in a quite peaceful and friendly atmosphere.
After this battle was completed, it was Naruto's turn to play next, and his opponent was Inuzuka Kiba from Class 8... This is not a big deal. After all, in a sense, the combat effectiveness of the Inuzuka clan depends on Dog, and now that Naruto has such strength depends on Hagoromo, Hagoromo and dog, are they comparable?
So even if Naruto only relied on making clones, he could still win this competition, so he first tortured the dog, then the person, and then won.
When all three members of Class 8 finished the fight, they sadly discovered that only Shino Aburame entered the next round. Comparatively, Class 10 was in much better shape, with all three passing... This is different from Inorika Die. The main reason was that their opponents were all trash from Xiao Ninja Village. However, there was also a fateful battle between Huang Mao and Pink Mao, and Huang Mao won. Just kidding, with this yellow hair and all the abilities, Yamanaka Ino is the Konoha version of "psychological mastery". He is the only one who can't win against the underdeveloped Sakura.
In a battle between two girls, whoever has the bigger breasts will win, of course Shokuhou Ino can do it.
Then, Hagoromo finally waited for his child to come on stage.
"The next match will be Uzumaki Mirai versus Kankuro."
"..."
At this time, all the children in Konoha probably felt sad for the ninjas of other villages for the first time. In short, they hope that the other party's end will not be too miserable. Anyway, whether it is Kankuro or Kanjuro, in the future, they will face each other. In the case of the young lady, what chance does he have of winning?
As for counterattack? This guy probably can't do it. Just wipe the paint off his face and throw it into the crowd. Well, he can't be picked out at all. How can he win?
"Who is this?" At the same time, Hagoromo on the second floor asked Kakashi next to him.
Of course he wasn't asking Kanjuro... Bah, Kankuro. He was asking about the identity of the examiner in the venue. The man's face was pale, but his eyes were a little sharp. Hagoromo was not familiar with this man.
"He? Special Jonin Gekko Hayate, a very powerful young ninja." Kakashi said
But is it enough to be equivalent to say that he has strength?
"Is this guy okay? His physical condition doesn't look very good."
Hagoromo said this quite politely. To be more accurate, he looked like he could cough himself to death at any time. Therefore, Hagoromo feels more and more that Kakashi's statement is unreliable. Ninjas with poor health basically cannot be classified as powerful ninjas...except for blood successor ninjas.
Moonlight Hayate in the venue didn't know that someone was despising him for being weak. Otherwise, he would definitely despise him and go back. What's wrong with his poor health? He has a girlfriend, and Hagoromo is just a single... This is definitely a critical blow. .
Fortunately, he had no chance to use this mouth-escape ultimate move. Moonlight Blast simply announced the start of the competition.
"Puppet Master?"
At this time, Mirai arrived and the other party was dismantling the equipment on his back, so he asked.
"Can you tell? I heard that you are the golden daughter, and you have a very high evaluation of Konoha's current strength. In this case, I will treat you with caution from the beginning."
Kankuro was not surprised to learn that he was a puppet master in the future. Who asked him to carry a Barbie doll on his back?
Soon, he had taken out his puppet "Crow". It is said that this puppet was designed and made by the Red Sand Scorpion... Under the control of the chakra line, the puppet Crow moved forward, while Kankuro himself retreated. Finally, a rattling sound that belonged to the puppet suddenly spread throughout the entire place.
Kankuro obviously has no intention of engaging in close combat. Not every puppet master has a heart for close combat.
"Oh, are you ready?"
Mirai's words made Kankuro feel that she was too naive, or is this a common problem among the new generation of Konoha ninjas?
For example, if you imagine it, if the daughter of the Fourth Hokage was injured or killed here, how would Konoha react?
Of course Kankuro wouldn't be stupid enough to do that, but it would definitely be interesting to imagine Konoha's reaction.
Although his imagination was innocent, in fact he was overthinking it. Mirai said that not out of naivety, but because he thought that this person had to go all the way from Sunagakure to Konoha to take the exam, so he wouldn't let others down. Show off?
After all, he can only make an appearance... Based on the future estimate of the strength gap between the two sides, if she makes a single move in the next battle, she will lose.
Is there any use in hiding away? The attack range of some moves can take into account long, medium and near ranges, such as this move that will be used in the future.
The puppet "Crow" rushed forward, and then... nothing happened.
Without Kankuro making any reaction, four bright silver chakra chains pierced towards him, instantly messing up the puppet full of sophisticated mechanisms, and then at the same time, another chain It protruded vertically upward from the ground at Kankuro's feet, and now directly tied him up, and then decisively hoisted him into the air.
Are you on your back?
A set of five, full of weight, this is a move that Hagoromo has always envied but could not learn, the secret technique of whirlpool - King Kong Blockade, but he can already use it at this time in the future.
Because she is a whirlpool.
Kankuro pounced instantly, but Mirai actually won because her feet really didn't move.
The battle went on so fast that most of the people present did not realize what was going on. Some Jonin who were doing popular science on puppetry were embarrassed. I just talked about how powerful puppetry is. , what is the advantage in the battle, and it’s like this? Is it okay to give face to a friend who is hiding in the sand?
