Chapter 273: The New Year's Zhongnin Exam!(Fifth Shift Asking for a Monthly Pass!)
"There's a team leaving so soon!"
Markey's words seemed to have a faint sense of surprise......
Regardless of how Sakura slandered the provisional head of the Sashinobi, the temporary leader of the Allied Powers explained to Tsunade:
"This is the security measure we have arranged......"
According to the arrangement of the Sand Ninja Village, each team of candidates will bring a set of scrolls into the examination room. However, this is not an item scroll to compete for, but a life-saving scroll: in the event of an unmanageable crisis, unfolding the scroll is an exit from the field, and the spell on the scroll will psychically channel an examiner to rescue them.
Compared to Konoha's practice of throwing newcomers in and not caring whether they live or die, Sha Shinobi seems to be more popular in doing so.
With a wave of his hand, a shadow behind him stepped forward and flicked a few switches on the TV wall on one side, bringing up the picture taken by a monitor hidden in the valley.
One of the images was blurry, shaking, and footsteps could be heard.
"This is what was filmed with a portable monitor. Markey leaned forward slightly, leaning closer to the video wall, "I saw the team unfolding the scroll." ”
The picture stabilized for a while, and it was the examiner who held the camera with his hand and took a picture of the team that sent the signal: a young ninja was lying on the ground, purple and red, unconscious on the ground, obviously falling into the trap of the fierce poison trap planted by the Sand Ninja Village.
"Which village's squad is it?"
The examiner injects a poisoned ninja with an antidote, and the examinee's forehead guard flashes through the monitor, and Tsunade and Markey already have the answer.
"Hmm...... It seems to be our Konoha ninja. Tsunade said lightly.
Konoha's squad became the first team to be eliminated, a bit of a shame for her.
This is also because of the shortage of manpower in the past year, and all the outstanding newcomers have been promoted. In order to speed up the growth of talents, there is nothing wrong with this approach, but the quality of this year's candidates has dropped a lot in an instant.
Otherwise, the Hinata team, the Ningji team, and the Shikamaru team will send one over at will to crush this kind of novices in minutes.
"Hehe, why didn't your village send those outstanding shinobi from last year to take this exam?" said Maki as he looked at Tsunade, who was a little embarrassed and had a dull face.
The fifth generation Hokage stared at the monitor, and the purple color on the face of the Konoha examinee in the picture quickly faded, and she breathed a sigh of relief before replying: "This is the middle ninja exam held in Sand Ninja Village, so naturally we can't take the lead." ”
Markey's tone froze suddenly, and he had nothing to say.
The verbal confrontation between the two ninja village leaders ended in a small defeat for the clumsy Machi.
But in any case, Konoha was eliminated by a team first, a fact that no matter how sharp his teeth are, he can't refute the fact.
The second exam took place over three days.
The next day, Konoha sent three squads was eliminated by another team - this time it was a ninja who encountered the sand ninja and was defeated in the battle.
Those stupid people,Sakura recognized them from the monitor.,It's a junior sister in the lower class of the ninja school.,The strength is pretty good in the same class;Maybe inspired by the brilliance of a few of their newcomers last year.,Just after graduation, they came to take the middle ninja exam.,The result was a miserable defeat to the lower ninjas of the sand ninja.,A big loss of Konoha's face.。
In other words, Sakura's next junior, the best is not as good as the worst of the twelve small strong. The newcomers were clearly overconfident.
Fortunately, the other party remembered the love of the alliance between the two villages, and did not kill him, otherwise Tsunade and Maki sat on it, and I am afraid that the atmosphere would be stiff for a long time.
Luckily, the remaining team was brave and resourceful, and finally passed the second exam safely.
In contrast, the three lower ninja teams of the sand ninja were all passed, and none of them were eliminated.
Although there is an excuse of "I don't want to take the lead", Tsunade still feels that the scene is a little ugly, and the smile on Markey's face these days makes her a little angry; Sakura Haruno gives her slanderous advice to let Naruto come to take the exam immediately, and the five generations of Hokage are almost moved.
We, Konoha, are just giving you a face in the Sand Ninja Village. Tsunade comforted himself, otherwise, if we send our Konoha strongest shinobi to the field......
This time, the time schedule for the middle ninja exam is relatively tight, and after the second exam, it was only a day of rest, followed by the third exam.
It's rare to come to Sand Ninja Village, but I can't go around, Sakura is a little regretful.
Even on the day of the break, she had to follow Tsunade, who was talking secretly with the bigwigs of Sand Ninja Village in the conference room, and she and Shino had to wait outside the door, bored, unable to speak or move around at will.
Standing with them were the shadows of the sand ninja, all wearing masks or veils that covered their faces, and they couldn't see their true faces. Because of the boredom, the shadows of the two villages have already played a game of staring at each other.
It was unknown what Tsunade and the sand shinobi had talked about, all she knew was that Tsunade had a flying look on her face as she walked out of the conference room, and it was clear that she had gained a lot. He also patted her on the shoulder and nodded at her.
Haruno Sakura's previous actions obviously gave Konoha another bit of confidence.
It's just that the girl who is the key lady is confused and doesn't know why at all.
The third exam came as scheduled, and as Tsunade expected, Konoha Ninja didn't get any very good results.
The last game of the individual competition was the civil war of the sand ninja, and Konoha only won the third and fourth.
But Tsunade's mood is not bad, in addition to the good progress of the previous talks, more importantly, although the strength of those newcomers is not as good as others, the spirit shown is still very Konoha style.
Having said that, the strength of the candidates who took the exam this time is so strong, in fact, it may not be boring. The simplest thing is to not let a few strong ninjas go up, and then take the exam in the name of the lower ninja, which must be sweeping thousands of armies all the way, and can attract the attention of the audience.
This kind of thing, the five major villages and the small ninja villages are all tacitly acknowledged, whoever is the turn to hold the middle ninja exam, they have to give someone a face, probably like this.
Isn't Konoha such a cat?
Anyway, Sakura Haruno knows at least one example.
Or is it her acquaintance! I won't say the name, so as not to make everyone's face ugly.
The Zhongnin exam came to an end without any accidents. Tsunade secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the sand ninjas should be completely convinced.
When he went back, the Hokage was walking with the candidates.
Sakura's personal escort mission became after the team's tail was broken, along with Shino and the other team after the previous break.
There were four people in total, and three people were guarding the three directions in the rear.
Sakura Haruno was the last, the strongest one, responsible for supporting the enemies in the shadows in front of them.
So she won't leave the Sand Ninja Village until Tsunade has set off for a while.
By the time Shino and the others started to set off, only Sakura was left in the Sand Ninja Village.
She sat in a dessert shop, ordered a cold drink, and fiddled with her fingers in boredom.
"Aren't you going back?"
A clear female voice suddenly came from behind him.
Sakura looked back, but it was Temari talking, followed by Kankuro and Iara.
"I'm broken, so I'm going to leave later," she said with a faint smile to the three of them, looking at the sky, "It's not a rush yet." ”
"The ninjas after the break are generally the strongest ones, and it seems that you are really strong. Kan Jiulang glanced at the slender girl in front of him, her pretty appearance was too deceptive, and the strong man in his impression should be eight feet tall, and the waist circumference was also eight feet, and it was best to bring eight puppets.
Sakura Haruno smiled reservedly, his laughter was as light as a mountain stream, and it was very different from the barbell-like laughter that Kankuro had imagined, and he thought that he should at least be as fierce as his old sister!
Regardless of this cranky guy in his head.
"Sakura, I never had a chance to give it to you before. This is the garnet fine sand you want, and there is also a small bag of silicon carbide sand in it. Airo stepped forward and handed Sakura a bag.
Adding some fine sand as an abrasive to the waterjet can enhance the cutting ability of the waterjet, and Sakura wanted to try the effect of this, so when we met before, she asked me Airo to help him make a batch of sand.
I Airo said: "The silicon carbide sand you mentioned is really much harder than ordinary sand, and the effect of using it in my ninjutsu is amazing. However, it is too expensive to grind out of rare moissanite, and the amount is too small. Hmmm......"
"Why don't you try to make it yourself?"
"I'll study it when I have time......" I Ai Luo shook his head, there are many tasks in the regular army, and he just doesn't have time to study this now.
"Okay, okay, how can you talk about ninjutsu when you say goodbye," Temari interrupted the conversation between the two again and again, "Come to us again when you have time!
"I'm busy with the Shinobi exam, I have a little vacation, and I want to go out for a trip. ”
Women are really not as enthusiastic about cultivation and strength as men...... Sakura Haruno sighed faintly.
Then Temari really took out a tourist map and compared a few scenic spots with Sakura: "For example, this Grand Canyon." ”
She paused, thought for a moment, and then crossed it out with her eyeliner: "Uh, forget it...... It was originally a particularly beautiful place, but in the first half of the year, I don't know who did the destruction there, and a small piece of the stone forest was destroyed, and now the scenic spot has been blocked and not allowed to enter. ”
Who is the culprit, I will not say the name here, so as not to look ugly.
"This place, the pearl oasis, this oasis group is beautiful like a string of pearls, and here, it is a monument, almost no one has visited, and it is worth visiting......"
After a few small talks, Sakura said goodbye to them.
As she walked out of the main road in the village of Sand Ninja, Sakura rubbed her hand against the map that Temari stuffed into her.
"Travel?" Sakura Haruno doesn't have that time to spare, but it's not bad to stop by while doing tasks.
"Pearl Oasis, the oasis I searched in the previous mission, I've already been there. ”
"This monument, well, what is it called? ”
She said to herself, and disappeared into the eyes of the sand ninja guarding the door in an instant.
