Chapter 3: Lower Forbearance
"Next: Yamato Ishida. ”
"To. ”
"Let's get started. ”
"Yes. ”
……
"Okay, the doppelganger is qualified. ”
……
"Okay, the stand-in is qualified. ”
……
"The transformation technique is not qualified!"
After classifying a certain soy sauce character as failing, Kazama Hakuba spoke again.
"Next, the moon is clear. ”
"To. ”
Seeing that he had finally arrived at him, Qingyang stepped forward with confidence, for him, using the three-body technique was as natural as breathing, after all, he had tempered the three ninjutsu that he only knew to a realm unimaginable to his peers.
But just as he was about to be assessed, he was interrupted by Lu Jiu, who was sitting on the side.
"Kazama-sensei, as the chief invigilator of this Shinobi exam, I would like to make a suggestion. ”
Mr. Kazama immediately said that he would listen and obey the arrangement.
"I don't think there is any need to assess the level of the three-body technique of Yaoyue Qingyang, after all, all the examiners present have already seen it in the morning. Therefore, while ensuring the fairness and fairness, I hope that I can conduct an additional assessment of him. And the results of the assessment will not affect the results. ”
All the other examiners and Qing **** were stunned, but then nodded again, Lu Jiu, as the chief examiner, he has the right to decide the situation of the exam. And his decision is not excessive.
Leaving the work to several other examiners, Lu Jiu took Qingyang to another classroom. There is a shogi set here.
"Shogi can be played, right?"
Hearing the question, Qingyang thought about it before answering.
"Well, understand the rules, but it's not particularly good. ”
"It's okay, stay with me for the next game now. ”
"Yes, Kaku-sama. ”
The two sat down separately and set up the chess pieces. Lu Jiu motioned for Qingyang to take the lead.
Qingyang thought about it for a while, and he had realized that Lu Jiu was testing him by asking him to play chess with him, so he had to think about how to play this game of chess.
After some consideration, he decided to start using the nimble Gui horse and get past the infantry in the front row to eat. Then push out the corner row as fast as possible.
"Oh, use Guima from the beginning? What a motivated young man, this is indeed the fastest and most effective combat thinking. Speaking of which, I've heard you say you wanted to be the Hokage on your first day at the ninja school, but did you know that the Hokage doesn't just have a fighting spirit? ”
Lu Jiu was chattering while slowly arranging his own formation. Unlike Qingyang, Lu Jiu first lined up the infantry little by little, and then arranged other chess pieces.
But the more Lu Jiu is like this, the more Qingyang fights faster and slower, and after more than fifty hands, Lu Jiu almost adjusts the layout back and forth in a sluggish and slow attitude, and is eaten several times. But even so, he kept talking.
On the other hand, Qingyang has no time to talk at all, he himself is a person who doesn't like to talk, and the identities of the two are also here, and he is embarrassed to speak without scruples. At the same time, I don't listen to what Lu Jiu says much. Only cares about the quick attack of the big opening and closing, the cooperation of Guima and Jiaoxing complements each other even better, and the chess road is even more clever.
After walking back and forth for more than thirty hands, Qingyang's horn line was upgraded to Ryoma, which made him laugh a little proudly.
But the next scene made him feel like he had been poured cold water. Shikakuna's seemingly slow and conservative formation was like a giant python, and a casual chess piece in his hand sealed his Ryoma in the formation.
When it was almost a hundred hands, his Ryoma was finally eaten.
"Good tactics are important, but good strategy is just as important. You can't throw either of these two. ”
This made Qingyang full of cleverness, and he suddenly realized that he was still too young. Who is the other party? Nara Shikahisa, Konoha's chief staff officer, is known for his strategy. How could you be so easily pressed and beaten by a ghost?
Sure enough, the next situation took a turn for the worse, and Guima, who lost the cooperation of Ryoma, suddenly lost his prestige. And Lu Jiu's big snake just spit out the letter is the beginning, and then the big snake almost echoes with a lazy attitude, and the whole line is pressed to surround Qingyang.
Qingyang stumbled left and right, and tried his best to resist, but finally lost the game when he reached the 200th hand.
"I ...... Lost. ”
Even though he already knew the ending, Qingyang still felt a little difficult to accept when he saw him in person.
"You've done well enough, and you've realized what I'm saying in the late game. ”
Qingyang nodded respectfully, he finally understood what it meant to be worthy of his name.
"So is there anything else you'd like to say now?"
Hearing Lu Jiu ask like this, Qingyang was stunned, his eyes flashed, and he said solemnly.
"Since you've talked about the relationship between tactics and strategy, you're probably referring to my battle with Sogo this morning.
My three-body tactics are successful and victorious at this stage. But after the game I just played, I realized that I had put my strategy in a very dangerous position in the battle with Sogo. First of all, as a member of the Hyuga clan, it was the most irrational thing for him to engage in hand-to-hand combat anytime, but today I used this tactic before I was sure that the white of his eyes could see through the extent of my transformation and the blow his soft fist could inflict.
Just as I did when I played chess with you before, I tried my best to eat every one of your pieces, but it put me at a great strategic disadvantage. Attacking with all your might is only a chance of victory against the near-invincible odds of your carefully managed battle. This in itself is a strategic loss......"
After saying what was in his heart in one breath, Qingyang himself was taken aback, it was rare in his memory that he had said so many words in a row like today.
Lu Jiu nodded with satisfaction, showing a kind smile.
"It's great, you can realize so many things that show that you're a man. Remember, tactics and strategy go hand in hand, and you don't need to be down. No matter what position you are in, you can only be a good ninja if you recognize yourself and are willing to take responsibility for your actions. Congratulations, you passed my individual assessment of you. ”
This last sentence lifted Qingyang's spirits, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"Passed? But I obviously lost to you just now. ”
"Huh? uh...... Hahahaha......"
Lu Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, almost bursting into tears. Raised his hand and gave him a chestnut burst.
"Don't be self-righteous, little ghost! I didn't think you could beat me now! In fact, I'm very satisfied that you can do it to the extent you have now, and you still want to beat me? Wait a few more years. ”
Qingyang also scratched his head embarrassedly, and then couldn't help but be a little curious about why Lu Jiu wanted to assess himself alone.
"But why are you doing that?"
Shikaku smiled incomprehensibly.
"You'll know this, but for now you just need to know that you've become an official ninja. I guess the exam over there is also over.,Go and register with the other imps who passed the exam.,I wish you good luck every day you become a ninja in the future.。 ”
"Hmm!"
Qingyang's heart was extremely solemn, and at this moment he seemed to become a little more cheerful.
Walking out of this classroom with Lu Jiu, the exam over there has also come to an end, and the last candidate is being assessed.
"Three-body technique, all excellent! Kurama-e, excellent!"
Kurama E, who was standing there, looked at Haruhi proudly. Qingyang responded embarrassedly.
In short, this year's ninja school graduation exam is officially over. Qingyang and other students who passed the exam went to take photos to register and receive their own forehead protection. They're now full-fledged ninjas.
