Chapter 19: The Day of the Shinobi Selection
This selection of Shinobi seems to have affected the entire Konoha and the entire Fire Country. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Within a few days, some of the richly dressed figures arrived in Konoha one after another, they came from the heart of this great country, and belonged to the top of the country, including even the daimyo of the Fire Country.
Under the ninja, the fate of a village or a country for decades to come has been tied to them.
From the moment they stepped into the village, they were doomed.
If you succeed, you will gain the power to change your life and complete the transformation from an ordinary person to a ninja.
Failure will become a stepping stone for others, crushed into smashes and turned into dust.
While they were excited and eager, Konoha and the high-level leaders of the Fire Nation were also in mixed moods.
Ninja is the pinnacle of the world, attached to a country and guarded by one side.
A powerful ninja who can deter enemies from all sides and dare not start a war lightly is an important guarantee of peace.
And the Fire Nation is even more desperate for this, not only because it is in the center of the four great powers of thunder, earth, wind, and water, and occupies the most prosperous and fertile land. What's more, since the first ninja war, they have won the second and third major wars in a row, of course, the victory is gratifying, but it has invisibly aggravated the hostile mentality of the four major powers towards the country of fire, so in each of the three ninja wars, in the end, the country of fire Konoha Ninja Village has to start a war with the same, two or even three villages.
If it weren't for the fact that in the past ten years, a large number of genius ninjas have poured out of Konoha one after another, such as the Three Ninjas, White Fangs, the Four Generations, etc., perhaps Konoha and the Fire Country would have been in a stormy place.
Peace, on the other hand, is a luxury in this world, and no one can predict how long it will last, perhaps because a slight friction will detonate the mutual hatred between ninjas and start the next ninja war.
And if it is extrapolated from the situation of the first three times, the fourth ninja world war Konoha is likely to be subject to more pressure and strategy, which is what worries them the most.
They are eager for Konoha to discover and cultivate a new genius ninja to guarantee the next few decades.
。。
The golden crow slid down, and the jade rabbit rose obliquely.
A few days of impatience passed quietly before I knew it.
Finally, in a new rising sun, the day of Konoha's shinobi selection has finally arrived.
The underworld of the 'roots'.
Darkness is as silent as iron, like an abyss like a forest. The walkway is like a dense cobweb, stretching across the entire area.
In a corridor on the ground floor, several figures gradually walked towards a tightly closed monotonous iron door.
Root Ninja, Hinata Snow Girl, and Oil Girl Sushi.
As the children of the famous Konoha family, although the two of them have officially joined the root after the personal approval of Tuan Zang, but the selection of the lower ninja is imminent, and Tuan Zang has not assigned other tasks, and the first thing at the moment is still to participate in it on behalf of the 'Root of Darkness'.
At this time, they followed the guidance of a root ninja to find the last person in the three-person team, Vortex Pathless.
"It's such a big shelf.,Have you forgotten that today is the day of the assessment and selection of the lower ninja!?"
The oil girl Su Zhiyin's eyes under the shadow of the hood flashed faintly, revealing a trace of impatience, but after all, he just said this sentence in his heart, and did not say it.
The knockout match a few days ago still haunts him at the moment, and that was the first time he has grown up to feel intense humiliation and anger.
Afterwards, he reluctantly recalled the brief fight with Uzumaki Wudao, and although he took it lightly, he finally came to the conclusion that the latter's special ability seemed to completely restrain his attack.
His parasites were powerless against the unique 'golden body' of the Vortex Pathless, and neither biting nor corrosion had any effect.
That ability was a total suppression for him.
This made him unwilling and a little resentful at the same time.
And after a while, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hmph, it seems that the Inuzuka clan has passed on the news that they will send the genius children of the clan to participate in this assessment, which is an extremely interesting thing! Those guys are close graduates of the Ninja Academy, and they are also the leaders of the young generation in the famous family, and their strength is super strong!"
Oil Girl Su Zhi thought coldly, but in fact, what he didn't know was that not only the Inuzuka clan, but almost all the famous families of Konoha sent the number of people with the specified quota to participate in this Shinobi assessment, and naturally included his clan, the Oil Girl clan!
And its purpose is to find the whirlpool without a way.
。。
At this moment, at the end of the corridor, behind the iron door, the bright light like the morning star in the dim light suddenly flickered, like a knife blade. Uzumaki Wudao opened his eyes in an instant.
The entrance was a dimly lit room, with only a flickering candle, the same furnishings as the previous 'ink mark' planted on him in the group, except for a simple wooden bed and dining table.
Maybe it was because he had been in the darkness for too long, and for a moment his eyes were filled with a trace of dazedness, but then a stream of memories came to his heart like a tide.
It's been three days.
After meeting with Orochimaru, Danzo informed the Ninja of the Root to dismiss the three of them and set them up with a separate room to live in.
The initial cultivation of the sword technique of the whirlpool without the Tao was still unfinished, and he did not have the slightest objection to this, and he went into the dim room and practiced alone.
Chakra refining, mudra practice, and in addition to that, he spent more time on the penance of sword arts, and with the strong assistance of spiritual power, finally, half a day ago, he successfully mastered the 'One Knife Stream' Juhe Slash.
This has to be said to be a miracle.
There are only a handful of Tokugawa people who are qualified to practice the 'Shinzo Sword Technique', and Tokugawa Yasushi is the fastest known to practice, drawing his sword and slashing thousands of times a day, but it still took nearly a decade to accumulate before he can comprehend the mysteries of Iai.
Although the Vortex Wudao relied on a powerful and mysterious spiritual power to be successfully cast, it only took three and a half days to complete the calculation, and there was still a need to refine the chakra and practice the mudra.
This is a shocking result, and even the vortex Wudao's somewhat indifferent mentality is a little excited.
The dim shadow of the wall moved slightly, and the whirlpool Wudao slowly stood up, his eyes closed slightly, and his palm skillfully grasped the hilt of the sword, silent.
At this moment, it seemed that the room was really silent, whether it was the sound of breathing or the sound of the heart beating, all of them had been blocked.
Brush!
The almost silent sword light instantly unsheathed, flashing away in the void in front of him, and a subtle wisp of sharp qi blade came out and slashed towards the iron gate in front of him.
"Bang!"
With a soft sound, the iron door in front of him shook violently, and a slight gap was cut out by the wisp of air blade, and at the same time, the three faces then reflected the eyes of the whirlpool through the faint light pouring through that gap, making his expression slightly stunned.
Outside the door, the three of them all looked cold and silent.
With only a slight difference, the sharp qi blade that suddenly cut through the iron door was able to cut horizontally into his body.
Click.
The iron door was opened from the inside, revealing the indifferent face of the whirlpool.
However, the eyes of the three of them did not pay attention to him for the first time, and the door seemed to have a faint magic power that subconsciously attracted their attention.
Criss-crossed, finely densely packed.
The inside of the somewhat old iron door was covered with countless cuts.
