Chapter 79: Ring Battle
In the golden autumn of October, the blue sky is like a wash, the breeze is breezy, and it is cool and comfortable. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info on the side of the Konoha street, patches of wildflowers swaying in the wind, silently blessing the harvest of the coming autumn.
Two days later in the morning.
The final round of the Chunin exam was held as scheduled.
In the middle of the Shinobi examination venue.
The stands on both sides were full of spectators, and among the crowd, it could be faintly seen that many people were wearing masks and secretly maintaining order on the scene.
The seven members of the Uchiha Festival slowly ascended to a viewing area directly north of the venue, silently waiting for the final showdown.
"Sacrifice, Watergate, you have to come on!"
While waiting, a voice came from behind the seven people.
Uchiha Matsuri and Bo Feng Shuimen turned around and looked at Inuzuka E, who had quit the fifth class due to injury half a year ago.
"E, why are you here?" Bo Feng Shuimen hugged Inuzuka in surprise.
Compared with the Uchiha Festival, which is also a friend and foe, Bo Feng Shuimen is obviously closer to Inuzuka E, a playmate who has grown up since childhood.
"And me?"
Next to Inuzuka, a huge body is happily eating potato chips.
"Tangdong, you're here too!" Bo Feng Shuimen looked at Qiu Dao Tangdong excitedly.
As the former (good) team (base) friend (friend) of Bo Feng Shuimen, even if the two of them no longer perform tasks, the status of the two in the hearts of Bo Feng Shuimen is by no means comparable to that of Uchiha Matsuri and Uzumaki Kushina.
"I can't go on missions with you anymore, but we'll always be teammates on the same team. With that, Inuzuka took out a forehead guard with the Konoha logo and put it on his forehead.
Inuzuka E hugged the ninja dog Ono and said movingly: "Maybe my level can only stagnate at this level, but I still hope that the two of you can get stronger and stronger." After all......"
"After all, you two are the closest to the Hokage's position among the ninjas of our generation. ”
With that, Inuzuka gave the two of them a smile.
Hearing Inuzuka E's impassioned words, Bo Feng Shuimen was obviously moved: "E, Tangdong, thank you for coming to cheer us on." But don't worry, I'll make that dream come true. ”
The dream that Bo Feng Shuimon said was naturally to become "a great Hokage".
"I will too. Seeing that Bo Feng Shuimen had made a clear statement, the Uchiha Matsuri followed and said. In this atmosphere, the Uchiha Festival is not easy to say anything else.
At this moment, the Uchiha Matsuri has something more in mind.
Although he didn't know the rules of the final round, the Uchiha Matsuri clearly realized that none of the people who could advance to the final round were of poor strength. After Chakra's output was restricted, the Uchiha Matsuri was not sure that he would be able to defeat any of the remaining six.
"Thunderstorm Birth and Yin Seal are no longer available, and the only thing that can be used as a killer weapon now is the Hitomi technique. The Uchiha said secretly in his heart.
The Uchiha Festival, who has read the original Hokage, naturally knows the power of the Uchiha clan's writing wheels. In this life, like a gift from heaven, the Uchiha Festival opened the writing wheel early.
Even without the Yin Seal and the Thunderstorm Birth, the Uchiha Matsuri was convinced that he could run rampant in the ninja world with the Sharingan.
"Look, it's Hokage-sama!"
"Hokage-sama is here. ”
The arrival of the three generations of Hokage instantly brought the atmosphere of the venue to a climax.
Next to the three generations of Hokage, there are three generations of Mizukage represented by Fog Hidden Village, and Chiyo, the representative of Sand Hidden Village.
After waving to the excited audience in the venue, the three Hokages stopped.
"Please. The three Hokages smiled and asked the two to go first.
"Please. The two returned the salute.
After a brief push, the three generations of Hokage, the third generation of Mizukage and Chiyo stepped into the stands and sat on the three VIP seats specially reserved by the Shadow Ninja.
In the north stand, the two major advisors of Koharu and Mito Menyan suddenly appeared beside several shinobi.
After seeing the two of them, the five shinobi of Konoha immediately saluted them, and even the two ninjas of the Sand Hidden Village and the Fog Hidden Village nodded to them after seeing the actions of the Konoha ninja.
"The two of us didn't come here for anything else, mainly to talk about the rules of the game. "Mito Menyan looks old and stubborn.
"The rules are simple, the final round is in the form of a ring fight. Zhuan Xiaochun squinted his eyes and said, "The seven of you will play two by two in the order of drawing lots, the loser will lose the opportunity, and the winner will face the challenge of the next person."
Without waiting for the seven people to reply, Mito Menyan cleared his throat and said with a straight face:
"According to the results of the draw, the order of the seven of you is Uzumaki Kushina, this Kiri Shinobi, Nara Shikahisa, Tsukiko Narusuke, this Sand Shinobi, Uchiha Matsuri, and Bo Feng Shuimen. ”
Ring fights?
After listening to the words of the two advisors, the Uchiha Matsuri had a lot of doubts in his heart.
If this is the case, wouldn't the earlier the player play the more disadvantaged?
Even if there is a ninja with huge chakra reserves and high strength, under this format, I am afraid that it will be consumed by round after round of competitions!
Thinking of this, the Uchiha Matsuri suddenly raised his hand.
"Advisors, can I ask a question?" asked the Uchiha Matsuri.
"Huh?"
"Does the result of the competition have any impact on the evaluation of the title of the middle ninja?" the corners of the Uchiha priest's mouth rose slightly.
The Uchiha Matsuri who has read the original Hokage still remembers. In the original book, the final round of the first Zhongnin exam is not based on the results of winning or losing to determine who should be awarded the title of "Zhongnin" and who cannot become Zhongnin.
Instead, there is a special person who can evaluate who can be promoted to Shangnin by observing the performance of each candidate and combining his own judgment.
Therefore, even after losing to Temari in the game, Shikamaru still took the lead in becoming a middle shinobi among the top 12.
"There is no impact. Mito Menyan waved his hand.
"In other words, even if we lose the game, as long as we play at the level of the middle ninja, we can become the middle ninja. Uzumaki Kushina said.
"That's right. Zhuan Xiaochun smiled.
“……”
"Since winning or losing doesn't matter, as long as you play at a normal level, the seven people present can basically be rated as a middle ninja. "The Uchiha Matsuri is directly hehe.
If it doesn't matter if you win or lose, who will fight each other desperately!
The person who made this rule didn't have a bubble in his brain!
Too lazy to complain about this strange competition system, the Uchiha Festival sat directly in the position, anyway, according to the order of play, it is far from the turn of the Uchiha Festival to play.
Just when the Uchiha Matsuri complained in his heart that the competition system was unreasonable, Koharu quietly approached Uzumaki Kushina and whispered to Uzumaki Kushina. After Koharu finished speaking, immediately after, Uzumaki Kushina nodded, as if she had promised something.
The center of the venue.
In the midst of all the attention, Uzumaki Kushina and Kiri Shinobu boarded the test stand.
