Chapter 25: The life of a scholar is hard!
All-you-can-eat nigiri sushi made with the finest ingredients, and the most prestigious Jiro sushi restaurant in Konoha Village provides a private order service throughout the process.
Heiji serves a small ball of tuna mid-belly sushi in his mouth.
Warm and soft and glutinous, it melts in the mouth.
The price of this small ball of sushi is already worth the two large bowls of tonkotsu barbecued pork ramen of Yiraku Ramen.
"Thank you for your hospitality...... I'm full......"
Heiji bowed slightly, paying tribute to Jiro Ono, the shopkeeper who was standing in front of him and was close to 90 years old.
A cold gaze looked at Heiji, Ono Jiro nodded slightly, and his slender and flexible fingers put a sweet shrimp sushi that had just been held on the plate in front of Hinata Hinata.
"It's delicious...... It's been a month since you've eaten your own sushi......"
Hinata Hinata sighed, and the sushi on the plate had been sent to his mouth and disappeared.
In front of her, four plates were placed horizontally.
Including Jiro Ono, there are four sushi chefs in spotless white coats serving the eldest lady of the Hyuga clan.
Heiji sat on the sidelines, watching Hinata Hinata perform the "Sushi Disappearance Technique", and secretly sighed at the amount of food he ate, that is, the amount of food that Hinata casually saved between his teeth.
"Heiji-kun...... Don't you want to eat a little more......"
Hinata looked at her in surprise, not understanding why the other party was so shallow.
Pingji smiled bitterly and patted his belly, indicating that he had gone all out and had no reservations.
Hinata suddenly stopped the chopsticks in his hand, and said with a slightly red face: "Heiji-kun...... Will you ...... Think I'm eating too much......"
Heiji smiled and shook his head.
Picking up a ball of sushi and putting it in his mouth, Hinata hesitated: "This time the middle ninja exam...... Heiji-kun...... Do you want to sign up? ”
Heiji smiled and said, "I'll sign up." Become a mid-ninja to be eligible to accept tasks with a higher difficulty level and earn more commissions. ”
His eyes darkened slightly, and Hinata sighed faintly and said, "If Heiji-kun becomes a middle ninja...... will leave the eighth class...... Become a squad leader...... And tooth ...... He was the same. ”
"I've got it figured...... I'm also going to take the Nakashinobi exam...... Even if you can't become a middle ninja, you can't be hindered...... After all, we are all in Class 8. ”
Hinata's originally hesitant expression became firm, and the chopsticks in his hand moved more quickly......
Early the next morning.
The gates, aisles, and playgrounds of the ninja school are full of shinobi waiting to sign up.
The lower ninja of Konoha Village, compared with the fierce and vicious lower ninja uncles in other ninja villages, are still a group of children who are ignorant of the world.
This time, in addition to Konoha Village and Sand Hidden Village, there are also relatively small ninja villages such as Rain, Grass, Taki, and Tone.
Relying on Hinata's white-eyed insight ability, Heiji and the others easily saw through the floor illusions set up by the two Konoha Shinobi, and came to room 301 with their respective registration forms.
Sunset Red was wearing a red and white women's ninja costume and was waiting for them with a smile.
"Very good, the three of you are here together, and now you can officially apply to take the Zhongnin exam!"
With a creak, the door behind Sunset Red opened.
"You've all listened to me! My name is Naruto Uzumaki! I will not lose to you! ”
Hundreds of gloomy gazes shot at each other, and as soon as Heiji and the others walked into the door, they received a round of baptism of gaze.
"This little ghost in Konoha Village is really annoying...... I really want to kill him! ”
"Bear with me for a moment...... There is a chance! ”
"In this exam, let's work together to kill these Konoha imps......"
……
Naruto Uzumaki stood in the middle of this group of newcomers, and even his companions from the other two classes around him became the target of public criticism.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Sakura Haruno immediately pounced and struck Naruto Uzumaki with her head: "Everyone...... Don't be surprised...... This guy has a problem with his brain! ”
In the midst of the chaos, a ninja from Otogakure Village suddenly jumped out of the crowd and rushed straight to a shinobi from Konoha Village.
"Wow!"
Obviously having dodged the other party's attack, the white-haired Konoha Shinobu suddenly crouched on the ground in pain and vomited on the spot.
The glasses on the bridge of the nose also cracked strangely, and shards of glass spilled all over the ground.
"Senior!"
"You don't matter, do you?"
Sakura Haruno and Naruto Uzumaki hurriedly helped the white-haired ninja to his feet, looking concerned.
"You've been a veteran of the exam for four years, it's really not very good......"
"How? Do you dare to underestimate our Yinyin Village? ”
The three Shinobi of the Sound Hidden Village stood in front of Dou with an unkind expression, murderous.
Obviously, before Heiji and the others came in, this Konoha Shinobi named "Dou" accidentally offended the ninjas of Otokuin Village in words, which attracted the other party's revenge.
"You bastards! Be quiet! ”
A puff of smoke spread in front of the classroom, and dozens of Nakashinobi from Konoha Village suddenly appeared.
All of them looked grim and vicious, which made all the shinobi waiting for the exam in the classroom frightened.
A special shinobi in a black coat stood in the center of the crowd, like the stars holding the moon, which was particularly eye-catching.
"I'm tired of waiting......"
"My name is Mori Noi Biki, and I'm the invigilator for the first exam!"
"You few people from Yinyin Village, you'd better give me some restraint, otherwise you will be disqualified from the exam!"
The shinobi didn't dare to make a mistake again, and obediently sat down in their seats.
"About the rules of the first written test, everyone listens carefully!"
"There are a total of 10 questions on the test paper, and 1 point will be deducted for one wrong answer!"
"If you are caught cheating during the exam, you will be deducted 2 points at a time! I've memorized it all, those clumsy cheating behaviors are tantamount to digging your own grave! ”
"The last one, as long as one person in a group of three gets 0 points, all members of the group will be disqualified from the exam!"
After getting the papers, there was a slight commotion in the entire examination room.
The questions on the exam paper are just too difficult...... Where is this exam for the selection of the middle ninja?
Even if it is a middle ninja, it may not be able to make these questions!
Pingji took a cursory glance, and he basically did the first nine questions.
Question 10 reads, "45 minutes after the start of the test, the invigilator will give you the question of this question, please fully understand it." ”
I had already understood the rules of the first exam, so I decided to answer the first 9 questions one by one to pass the long 45 minutes.
In the examination room, from time to time, the examiner will announce that the unlucky Shinobi has been found to have cheated 5 times, and he was kicked out of the game together with the other two companions in the same group.
Gradually, Heiji felt that he had been secretly targeted by a vast number of people.
Writing wheel eyes, white eyes, trachoma, and inexplicably fainted for about two minutes......
Being a scholar in the Hokage, it's really hard!
