Chapter 85: The Significance of the Examination
Pointing out a new direction for Naruto, Wang Xiu walked back with a smile, and just after walking a short distance, there was another palpitation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝU๏ฝEใ ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ
"Is this feeling that the man is back?" Frowning, Wang Xiu touched the hidden spell mark on his neck, and a feeling of disgust came from a certain direction.
It felt vague, just a general direction, but it didn't give a clear indication to the individual. And that direction turned out to be where the friends were.
"Is it in those people?"
With doubts, Wang Xiu walked back, and just as he approached, he happened to hear Dou's gentle and magnetic voice, saying something.
"Actually, do you really think that the examination between the Allies is really just to add to the friendship between the countries?"
"Isn't it?" Sakura asked.
"Hehe, of course not." Dou smiled and continued: "In fact, the so-called Zhongnin exam is the epitome of the war between the allies. โ
"What!?" The crowd exclaimed.
"If you look at the history of the past, you will understand that the current allies are all neighbors who competed with each other in the past. In order to avoid unnecessary attrition of combat power and the emergence of a lose-lose situation, this place was chosen as a battlefield. โ
"How so? Isn't this just an ordinary exam? โ
"Let me answer you that question." A deep and old voice appeared, making everyone unconsciously turn their heads, and then they were shocked.
"Fire... Hokage-sama! โ
"That's right, this is an exam for the selection of the middle ninja. But at the same time, it is also a battlefield where ninjas shoulder the prestige of the country and sacrifice their lives to fight! โ
The old man's voice was strong and loud, and immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone fell silent and listened to his speech.
"The so-called deepening of friendly relations with each other and the enhancement of ninja strength... Oh, don't misinterpret it. โ
"This exam is not only visible to the leaders of each ninja village. Even the daimyo and high-class celebrities of various countries can see your wonderful performances. โ
"This is related to the distribution of tasks between the ninja villages, if there is a significant difference in strength, the strong country will receive more tasks, and the weak country will have less. At the same time, it is also showing its neighbors... Our village has a strong fighting force, so we can put pressure on that country diplomatically. โ
"But even so, there's no need for us to fight to the death, right!?" After all, most of them are children, and some people can't bear such pressure and can't help but shout.
Ape Fei took a puff of cigarette, and as the smoke spit out, a pair of old eyes were firm and deep, and his voice was thick and domineering: "The strength of the country is the strength of the village, and the real strength of the ninja can only burst out in a desperate battle." โ
"This is a platform to show the strength of the ninjas in the country, and at the same time, it is also a platform to show the strength of the country. Therefore, it is more meaningful to fight only with their lives, and in the past, there were ninjas who relied on strength, and there were also ninjas who took the exam, and they saw it as a dream that they could fight for. โ
"Then why? Or for the sake of friendliness? Someone asked.
"Didn't I say don't misinterpret what it means? It is a common practice to use a war of attrition to achieve a balance of national power between them...... This is called the friendliness of the ninja world. โ
"The reason why I say this is to make you aware of your situation. Don't just think of it as an exam, if you don't take it seriously......" Speaking of this, Ape Fei paused, squinted slightly, and said in a serious tone.
"I'm going to die."
After some remarks, many people couldn't help but whisper, some doubts, some panicked, some feared, and some excited.
For some, the pressure is overwhelming, but for others, it's the best platform to contribute to the village and express themselves.
Again, for some people, it doesn't matter what the meaning is. All they want is a simple exam.
"I've said so much, in fact, what you mean, I can understand that you can fight at will." A slightly immature voice came out of a teenager's mouth, but it sounded so cold that it made people shudder.
Taking a deep look at the young man in front of him, Ape Fei looked deep and said slowly: "Although it is best to stop on point, but according to the rules, as long as the opponent does not admit defeat, you can do this." โ
"Hehe, since that's the case, then I'm relieved."
Such a tone and such an attitude sounded so arrogant, and immediately caused some people to be dissatisfied.
"Damn! Who is this little ghost, so arrogant. โ
"No matter who he is, as long as he draws me, he must know what horror is."
"A little doll dares to pretend to be X, see how I beat him for a while, he calls his mother."
The people around him obviously didn't take this guy who looked younger than them in their eyes, and they were eager to try it one by one, wishing that they were fighting him.
Soon, though, they will realize how terrifying this pink-haired teenager is. I also understand what a nightmare is that cannot be broken.
There was no long delay, and soon, the person in charge of presiding over the exam arrived, and it was Moonlight Blast.
"Now, if there is a fear of being unwell alive, you can abstain, and if not, the caucuses will begin. Ahem! Vomit~" As soon as he said every two sentences, the moonlight wind coughed violently, and even more exaggeratedly spit out a mouthful of blood, which immediately stunned everyone.
"My God, what's wrong with this big brother, it's not like he's going to die."
"Could it be that he suffered serious internal injuries? Coming to fulfill a last wish on your deathbed? โ
"It can't be a kidney loss...... right?"
ยทยทยทยทยทยท
Ignoring the complaints of the people around him, Wang Xiu's eyes were solemn, and he also blamed himself a little. Although Moonlight Blast's health was not good before, he didn't vomit blood so easily, and becoming like this has a lot to do with helping him seal the spell.
"Exams are going to start soon." Dou said softly.
Naruto nodded, excitedly, "Well, I will definitely do my best and make the cut." โ
Dou smiled, did not answer, raised his left hand, and shouted, "That, I abstain." โ
"What!? Why did Senior Dou abstain, you are so powerful, you will definitely pass. Naruto exclaimed.
Moonlight Blaster glanced at the pocket, checked the list, and said, "You're Konoha's medicine master, right, okay, you can go." โ
crossed out the name of the pocket in the notebook, and the moonlight blast looked at everyone and continued: "Well, is there anyone who wants to abstain now?" Well...... Sorry, I forgot to mention that this battle is on an individual basis, which means you may be fighting against your teammates. If you want to continue, think about it. โ
This side of the pocket exited, but it attracted some people's attention.
Not far away, Hongdou glanced at him deeply, frowning slightly: "I've seen him several times, and it was the same last time." What exactly does he want to do? โ
"What's this person's experience?" Hokage asked.
"His grades in school were mediocre, and he barely passed the exam three times. After graduating, he has completed C-level tasks twice and D-level 10 times, which is very average. However, I don't know if you still have an impression, he was the only teenager who survived that war, and was later brought back by the medical team. โ
"Oh? I didn't expect it to be him. Ape Fei nodded thoughtfully.
Dou left, still with a habitual smile on his face, but at that moment, it was a little cold. The gentle gaze, flickering slightly, was like the gaze of a poisonous snake.
And this scene, others did not notice, but Wang Xiu, who has a God's perspective at any time, noticed it.
It's this feeling again, is it you? What exactly is the relationship between you and Orochimaru.
Pouch!
