Chapter 897: The Disappearing Knockout (Ask for Subscription)
At noon, the sun is high.
The temperature outside the central tower is gradually rising, but inside the tower is gloomy, like an ice age!
After all the thirteen teams with a total of thirty-six people entered the Central Tower, the second death assessment of the Zhongnin selection officially ended!
But most of the shinobi who passed the exam had gloomy expressions and malicious eyes!
"I love Luo, you bastard dare to fool me!" The ghost lamp Shui Yue glared at the gourd baby I Ailuo viciously, with a mouth of fangs, eager to eat its flesh raw!
If he hadn't stopped him in vain just now, he would have been surrounded by the sea of people and couldn't extricate himself!
The gourd baby clasped her hands on her chest, staring at the ground expressionlessly, completely ignoring the meaning of the ghost lantern Shui Yue.
"Bastard, I'm talking to you, what kind of dumb are you pretending!" The ghost lantern Suigetsu rushed over to slap his face, but he came into contact with my Airo's eyes without the slightest human emotion, and he was a little cowardly at the time.
"Ghost Lantern Shuiyue, I advise you to stay away from him, otherwise you don't know how to die." The 14-year-old uncle Kankuro sneered sadly.
"Ghost Lantern Shuiyue, we are only cooperating temporarily, and we have already stated in advance that we can interrupt it at any time depending on the situation, so don't make a fuss here, no one will get used to you." Temari said.
Bastard!
I don't dare to provoke you, don't I dare to provoke you?
Look down on people less!
Ghost Lantern Shuiyue rolled up her sleeves and rushed up to crook with this pair of kind 'sister and brother' cocks.
On the other hand, Sasuke is also experiencing all kinds of bad sights at the moment.
"Sasuke-kun......" Ino looked at Sasuke with complicated eyes, and he was resentful and sad and angry.
"Sasuke, you're too much, even worse than those who block the road!" Qiu Dao Ding Ci said angrily, but he was angry, he couldn't ignore it when he was hungry, so he quickly took out the barbecue-flavored potato chips to cushion his stomach.
"It's the same period of the sixth year, Sasuke Uchiha, what the hell are you thinking!" Inuzuka rushed over and slapped his face, and the one lying on top of his head screamed even more after eating, so fierce!
"Uchiha Sasuke, you're really going too far!" Xiao Li snorted and gasped.
The rest of Konoha's team is also viciously diss Sasuke, but they are all good, and those lower ninjas from other ninja villages are even more gloomy staring at Sasuke, with a vicious expression that you are careful in the next exam, kill you, and you are done with a fierce expression.
Sasuke stood there, his expression calm with a hint of pride, as if he didn't take these guys in front of him in his eyes, but his heart was very unsettled.
Naruto, this idiot!
If he had listened to me just now, how could these guys have a chance to beep here?
How can it be repaired!!
"It's good that Naruto didn't listen to Sasuke." Hinata trotted over to Naruto and thanked him softly.
The rest of the people finally shifted their gaze from Sasuke to Naruto, and praised in unison.
"Naruto, you're still interesting!" Inuzuka gave a thumbs up.
"Wang~" Akamaru agreed.
"Naruto, you're a lot more upright than someone."
"Naruto, thanks!"
"Naruto, it's you!"
In the face of everyone's gratitude, and then look at Sasuke's embarrassment, Naruto couldn't be happy, he wanted to put his hands in his pockets, pretend to be emotional, and then say "This is what I should do".
But unfortunately, the smile on Naruto's face couldn't hold back, and finally ......
"Hahahahaha...... It's nothing, it's all what I'm supposed to do, ahahahaha......" Naruto crossed his hands on his waist and smiled triumphantly.
Naruto, this bastard, he definitely did it on purpose...... Sasuke's face twitched and pumped, and he almost lost his facial expression management.
Kaori looked at Naruto and then at Sasuke, left and right for men.
"Did so many people pass?"
At this moment, Mitarai Red Bean, the chief examiner of the second exam, suddenly appeared in the middle of the field and attracted everyone's attention.
"Take out your Heaven and Earth Scrolls."
Hongdou looked at everyone with a smile, "If you want to get through the trick, you don't allow it~"
When the teams heard this, they immediately took out their scrolls to prove themselves.
After Hongdou looked at the circle and confirmed that every team here had gathered the Heaven and Earth Scroll, he announced that everyone had passed the exam with some reluctance.
At this time, the central tower was on the top floor.
When Bo Feng Shuimen saw that the Death Forest exam was over, he planned to go down and say a few words, but was stopped by Ape Feiri.
"Three generations, I have a suggestion for the next game flow." Ape Feiri smoked his pipe and said with a kind face.
"What advice?" Bo Feng Shuimen asked curiously.
"Before the final selection competition, I would suggest another internal knockout match."
Ape Fei Ri slashed, "It's going to happen here!" One-on-one, the winner advances to the final selection round, and the loser is eliminated! ”
Bo Fengshuimen frowned slightly: "Why add one more game like this?" ”
"Four generations, in the following teams, there are many people who rely on their companions, or even purely rely on luck to get here, and their own abilities are still secondary."
Ape Fei Ri said solemnly, "However, the final selection battle is a competition to test their comprehensive actual combat, if those who fish in troubled waters are allowed to stand on the final field, I am worried that it will affect the effect of the final selection battle!" ”
In the original work, the significance of the joint selection of the Chinese ninja is more inclined to the secret competition between the major ninja villages, which is the epitome of the war of various countries and the chessboard of the division of interests!
But in this life, the wave of wind and water is not dead, the Uchiha clan is not extinguished, the moonlight and cold wind, the instant stop the water, Uchiha Itachi, Kakashi, Kai and other young masters are active in the ninja world, so there is no competition or anything, it is simply that the major ninja villages want to stand out in the final selection battle, so as to attract the favor of those audiences (daimyos, ministers, big businessmen, celebrities from all walks of life), so that they can donate generously and contribute more to GDP.
Therefore, if the series of exciting matches in the final selection battle is interspersed with a series of 'bad' events, isn't it a 40-minute TV series interspersed with 20 minutes of intelligence reduction advertisements?
At that time, I am afraid that there will be a lot of audience dissatisfaction...... Right?
Therefore, Ape Fei Ri Slash wants to have a 1vs1 knockout match, and eliminate those shinobi who fish in troubled waters in advance, so as not to embarrass them on 'TV' and affect the reputation of 'TV station'!
Bo Feng Shuimen understood the meaning of the ape flying to the sun.
But......
Bo Fengshuimen thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Three generations, I understand what you mean, adding a knockout match can certainly improve the 'ornamentality' of the final selection battle, but how can the three generations ensure that this knockout competition only eliminates people with insufficient comprehensive ability?" ”
For example, if Sasuke and Naruto fight, or Iairo and Ghost Lantern Suigetsu face each other, then some of them will inevitably lose and miss the final selection, but no matter who is eliminated, they will have enough strength to shine in the final selection!
Eliminating one of them doesn't go against the original intention?
"This ......" Ape Feiri frowned, 'dark box operation' flashed in his mind, and then shook his head, regardless of whether Bo Feng Shuimen agrees or not, if this matter spreads, Konoha will not want to hold a joint selection competition for the Chinese ninja in the future.
"Another point, what if two evenly matched candidates fight to the end in the knockout round, and they do everything but suffer heavy losses, and neither of them can participate in the final selection?" Bo Feng Shui Gate came out of the soul torture again.
"This ......" Sarutobi was speechless.
"And ......"
Bo Feng Shuimen looked at the ape Fei Ri who didn't speak, and said with a smile, "Luck is also part of strength. ”
"Hehe, four generations, you're right." What else can the ape fly and slash can do, he can only raise the white flag and surrender.
After convincing the ape to fly to the sun, Bo Feng Shui Gate went down to the bottom of the tower, and endured under the crowd 'Wow, look, super ...... Under the fiery gaze of the Yellow Flash, the time and place of the final selection competition were announced, and they were gently encouraged, and then the disbandment was announced.
……
Moonlight Mansion Backyard.
Strange, how is there one less knockout...... The cold wind watched the image of Naruto in the crystal ball with his hands on the back of his head and Mizizi walking out of the central tower, and he couldn't get enough of it.
But it doesn't matter, without that knockout match, Xiao Li and Hinata can all 'live' to the final selection, and I don't know what kind of sparks will erupt at that time.
