One more tear, a word of courage is shouted, and the wish will come true. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Countless boys and girls in peacetime believed in this, and continued to strive to move forward towards their own ninja path, and this day finally came.

Today is the day of the official competition of the Central Ninja Exam, and the daimyo and high-ranking officials from all over the world have come to Konoha to observe, so as to observe the strength of Konoha and Sand Ninja after experiencing the Great Snake Pill Collapse Plan.

Similarly, Yun Ninja's Thunder Shadow also arrived at Konoha's mansion with Hu Cong the day before, and the guest seat for the middle ninja exam is unknown. And because Sand Shinobi hasn't been able to elect a new Kazekage, no one can sit side by side with the Hokage. However, in order to strengthen his prestige, he organized a delegation composed of all the upper ninjas and the elite upper ninja.

In short, Konoha's middle ninja exam this time may be the grandest ever. Not only the international attention, but also the high-end combat power of the outer village has also brought huge pressure to Konoha.

In order to come up with a style that can shock the audience, in addition to the attendance of the current Hokage's Tsunade, the three generations of the ninja doctors and the strongest ghost of the three ninja also came to the venue in person.

And in terms of basic maintenance, a large number of members of the dark department and the guard department can be seen everywhere. Maybe it's to get rid of the impression that the last Chunin exam left on the daimyo is not enough police.

The process of the Zhongnin exam is very simple, first concentrate the reference personnel in the field, which can be regarded as getting to know the audience, and then face off in pairs in the order of the previous draw. There were a total of twenty people who participated in the final exam this time, and most of them were from Konoha and Sand Shinobi, which was twice as many as previous exams.

However, the duels between ninjas are generally relatively fast, and most of them can be completed in less than ten minutes, and only a few of them fight for a day and a night like the Battle of Ending Valley. Therefore, the time for the exam is also set at 9 o'clock in the morning, and the competition will be completed in one go. Just after the exam, Tsunade was able to contact visitors in the study.

But it was already past nine o'clock, and the atmosphere in the venue had been heated up, but Tsunade had not announced the start of the exams. This made many people become a little restless, and the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, who was not very good-tempered, was one of them.

"The fifth Hokage, why hasn't the exam started yet? It's already a quarter past nine, far beyond the scheduled time. Could it be that there are still relevant matters that are not ready?" Ai asked in an unkind tone.

Although it is peaceful, the relationship between Yun Shinobi and Konoha is not good. Both sides were also heroes on the battlefield during the war, so Tsunade didn't want to give this muscular man with a stinky face a good look. But she held back, because there was something she couldn't solve.

"What's going on? Isn't that bastard Sasuke here yet?"

Tsunade asked Kakashi, who was guarding him, a little frantically.

She, a disciple, is simply a little too willful. Not to mention yesterday's important meeting, today's important occasion is actually absent. You know, he's the hand-picked presiding examiner.

"I'm sorry, but there is no news yet. Including the eleventh class to take the exam, Zuo Jin and Xiang Li. ”

Kakashi looked helpless, he didn't expect Sasuke to be like this. Speaking of which, this can be regarded as inheriting his glorious tradition, not only being late for his own exams, but also bringing his subordinates to be late for their exams together.

"Why, didn't that Uchiha boy come? I heard that his thunder escape is quite strong. ”

When Darui, who served as the Thunder Shadow's guard, heard Sasuke's name, a glimmer appeared on his lazy face. For him, meeting this teenager, who has recently gained fame, was also a major purpose of the trip.

This is also the expectation of many viewers. The winner half a year ago became the examiner half a year later, and no matter how you think about it, it is a legendary rise. The lower ninja brought out by such a young special upper ninja is also worth looking forward to.

"Damn, it's all bad by you!"

Tsunade glared at Kakashi fiercely, then took a deep breath.

"Can't wait any longer for this bastard kid to arrange a new exam list. Fifteen minutes later, the shinobi exam will begin, and you'll be in charge of it, Kakashi. You're the kid's teacher, so take responsibility. ”

“…… Tsunade-sama, you're that guy's master. ”

※※※

At half past nine in the morning, the exciting middle ninja exam finally kicked off. After Tsunade's congratulatory speech, Kakashi gathered the eighteen candidates who had taken the exam into the exam room.

"What's going on? Didn't you say there were twenty players?"

"That's right, and that examiner isn't Uchiha Sasuke, right? Remember that the Uchiha clan's hair is black. ”

Seeing that there was no Sasuke in the field, many of the spectators who came for it complained. Although the candidates are very confused, they are not so surprised that they already have a premonition after the new lottery just now.

Of course, there will still be idiots who will be confused.

"Well, Kakashi-sensei, why did you proctor? Didn't you say that the examiner was Sasuke?" asked Naruto with a raised hand.

"I don't want to take on such a troublesome task, but I can't help it. ”

Kakashi rubbed his flowing silver hair, and his expressionless face kept looking around.

"Sasuke, he seems to be late again. Anyway, for now, I'll take his place. ”

"Is that so? He really has his style. ”

After experiencing the last wait, Airo immediately expressed his understanding, and the others stopped saying anything when they saw this.

Zuo Jin and Xiang Li, who were scheduled to take the exam, were not there, so in order not to make all the intelligence work done by all the candidates in the previous month in vain, all the test sequences were not broken up and rearranged. maintained most of the original list, and only arranged the opponents of Zuo Jin and Xiang Lian together.

Kario's opponent is Temari, while the opponent on the left is Sakai in the seventh class. As a result, Temari's opponent became Sakai, and the order of the duel inherited the left near near the bottom of the rankings.

In the case of Temari, it doesn't really matter who the opponent is. She no longer has that kind of heavy task on her back for this exam, so Temari just wants to show herself well in front of Sasuke, and if she is lucky, she will have a good chance of separating the winner with Sakura.

Men want to show themselves strong in front of women, and women also want to be able to show their style. However, Sasuke's absence causes Temari's blood pressure to rise.

Time passed quickly, and the game went on and on. This time, the people who participated in the Zhongnin exam are the elite of the two countries, so the competition is very exciting, you come and go, you have your own wins and losses. The crowd was drawn to these games, and the complaints were quiet.

And because the whole exam is more than halfway through, everyone doesn't have much hope that Sasuke will be there halfway like last time. Temari was naturally still waiting for Sasuke's arrival, but the reality was that she didn't have time.

"In the next game, Sand Shinobi's Temari faced Sakai of Konoha and asked the players from both sides to gather under the stands. ”

It's too late, it's already your turn to showdown. This made Temari feel very bad, pulled out a three-star fan from behind and jumped directly from the stands. This chic and neat entrance made the audience exclaim for a while, and it also startled Kankuro next to Temari.

"Is this feeling angry? Going to the game with emotions doesn't have any effect. ”

Kankuro looked at the field with some concern.

"It's okay, it shouldn't be fine, and the other party should be the same. ”

Kankuro looked in the direction of my Airo's finger, and saw that Sakai, who was just about to walk out of the passage, was stopped by a ninja wearing a mask. The ninja whispered two words in Sakai's ear, and Sakai's face, which had always had a false smirk, was immediately filled with indescribable complex emotions.

"What's going on with that shadow? I don't remember ever giving an order like that. ”

Of course, Tsunade, who was in the center of the stands, also saw this scene clearly, and without thinking too much, he whispered to the three Hokage who were sitting next to him. In Konoha Village, there are only three generations left to mobilize people without going through her hands, except for the roots of Danzo.

"I have never given such an order either. ”

The denial of the three generations is almost a clear statement, and the instigator is Tuanzang. But in the presence of Thunder Shadow, Tsunade can't make too many moves.

"I abstain. ”

After being persuaded by the shadows, Sakai thought for a while, raised his hand and chose to give up the exam.

The selection of the middle ninja exam is not to promote the final winner, but to select the ninja who can serve as the squad leader based on the analysis of the situation. There is still the possibility of promotion if you fail in the duel, but to abstain is to completely abandon the path of middle ninja.

Sakai's absolute caused an uproar in the examination room. Especially Naruto, who is also a member of the seventh class, if it weren't for Sakura's strong pull, he would have jumped into the field and grabbed Sakai and questioned. However, this commotion did not last long, as a larger commotion arose.

A trident flew into the arena out of nowhere, plunging into the center of the floor at a speed that Kakashi couldn't even observe. A violent whirlwind followed, kicking up a coughing cloud of smoke. In the smoke and dust, you can faintly see the shadow of a young man holding a young girl in his arms.

"I'm sorry to be late! I accidentally lost my way in life. ”

The smoke cleared, and there was no sound. Sasuke looked around, his expression stiffening.

"What's wrong? What's going on?"
