Chapter 18: The Dinner
However, a few days later, the topic of the middle ninja exam began to appear in Konoha Village, where ninjas and civilians often talked about. This kind of activity to show the strength of the next generation of their village is obviously very popular with ordinary people and ordinary ninjas, and it is very talked about.
Yuzo, who always likes to follow Asmaban these days, thought that he could meet his good captain, but the third generation was once again assigned him a task, and it was still carried out alone. It seems that the three generations of old men are determined to isolate themselves from the crow guy. But it's nothing, I don't have enough strength now, and I can't do anything when I see that guy.
I have to say that time is a wonderful thing, and after this time, Yuzo's thoughts about his other two teammates have faded a lot, and the object of resentment in his heart now is only the leader of the team. Because he knew very well that it must be the captain who decided to give up on himself in the end, and even if the team members had this idea, they would not be able to act at all.
Intellectually speaking, this may be vexatious, but people like this kind of thing all the time.
The task is not difficult, it is to clean up the beasts that surpass the strength of the middle ninja in the Death Forest, which is the seventh trial ground, which will be used as the main examination room. However, it was also a question of whether there were beasts of this level in this place, so his other task was to set up some techniques to monitor the examination process, and by the way, re-detect the terrain.
The last time a terrain survey was made several years ago. Now that you need to use it, you naturally need to redraw this huge exam room environment so that you don't make any mistakes.
While Rain was hiding in the Forest of Death doing a boring mission, the seventh class returning from the country of waves handed over the mission book to the three generations of Hokage. This mission can be said to be very dangerous.,Originally, it was just an ordinary C-level mission sent to each other.,As a result, it was upgraded two levels in a row and became an A-level mission with a ninja-level enemy.。 It is worth mentioning that the seventh class, which violated the ninja behavior, successfully completed this task, which can be regarded as adding some to Konoha's image. As for whether there is any adverse effect, the three generations will not mention it in front of the three children.
Naruto, who had been praised, was in a mood that flew high like a bird, and the low mood that had accumulated in the previous mission was swept away. He was expectantly invited Sakura and Sasuke to dinner together, but Sasuke refused, so Sakura ignored him and went home by himself.
Naruto, who thought that he had a good relationship with Sasuke, was disappointed, but Sasuke helped him block Shiro's attack during the mission, and he felt that he and Sasuke were friends no matter what he said, but he didn't give himself a little face at all...
And Sakura too...
In the end, he had to run to Ichiraku Ramen and eat a bowl of ramen by himself, and then go home to sleep after some practice. At the same time, Sasuke was still practicing hard in his empty home, taking turns in physical arts, seals, kunai shuriken throwing, and so on. It was only at this time that he could feel the hatred suppressed in his heart slightly ease.
Thinking of Naruto's invitation, Sasuke shook his head, anything can increase his strength is important.
The next day, Kakashiban, who was assembled, saw an eagle hovering in the sky, so the plot began to advance rapidly at this moment. Under Naruto's curious questioning, Kakashi reluctantly said about the shinobi exam, and then saw Naruto's excited red face and Sasuke's excited eyes.
For Sasuke, being able to meet the elites of other lower ninjas, and then defeat them to accumulate experience and improve his own strength, is something that is unattainable and cannot be missed!
Of the three, Sakura was the only one who was reluctant to participate, but since Sasuke was going, she naturally wouldn't vote against it. So Kakashi got the signatures of the three people in his seventh class to apply for the Chunin exam. When he showed this to indicate that he recommended his three students, there were still Ape Fei Asma standing next to him, Sunset Red, a pair of lovers who had not yet pierced the window paper, and Maitkai with a watermelon skin head.
The three generations had no problem with the fact that their classes were to participate, and the young eagles always had to start trying to fly on their own. Hopefully, after this, a few children will grow up and become the mainstay of Konoha in the future, he is already very old and eager to see the new generation grow up.
In the past, Konoha had the first Thousand Hands Pillar of the Ninja God, and only Madara Uchiha could match the sweeping ninja world. After that, there is the first god speed in the ninja world, the second generation of a thousand hands, and he is also a generation of powerhouses. After that, there were three generations of his ninja male ape flying sun, but unfortunately he is now old. Once terrifying in the ninja world, the terrifying Konoha White Fang died in vain, and it was the saddest thing in the hearts of the three generations. The death of the fourth generation of golden flash is also one of the blows to the third generation, and he has to occupy the position of the Hokage with his face full of old age spots. Now the only ones in Konoha who can afford to stand up for the façade are him and Tuan Zang, but they are both old men. The famous Sannin, one of his three disciples defected, one wandered, and the other did not want to stay in the village.
Now in this era, it is probably the weakest period of time in the history of Konoha , and the strong have completely broken the generation, and after the existing two three ninjas, the four generations have passed away, who else will carry the banner? Kakashi? He's not qualified enough. As for Emperor Kai, no one knew that he could destroy the heavens and the earth by breaking out the Eight Gates.
Looking at the four ninja with the class, the three generations showed the majesty of the Hokage, and their eyes were no longer as cloudy as an old man: "In that case, I will approve all of you to take the middle ninja exam, and there are still a few days left to sharpen them, don't lose Konoha's face!"
"Yes!" The four shinobi replied in unison, making the three generations nod with satisfaction.
On the other side, the four lower ninjas under the upper ninja gathered in a barbecue restaurant. At first, it was actually Yuzo who invited Ino Shikamaru and them to come here, and at the same time, he thought that he hadn't seen Naruto for a long time, so he called Naruto. As a result, for some reason, Naruto not only brought his two teammates, but also brought Hinata and their class over.
Yuzo remembered what he had said to Naruto, "I'm having a treat at the barbecue restaurant this afternoon, do you want to come?" It doesn't matter how many people come, I've earned a lot of money on a mission recently, and it's definitely enough to spend..."
Next to the box where they were, there was a trio of Ning Ci and Xiao Li every day, and it was also a coincidence that the classes that had only met when they came to the Zhongnin exam had arrived at this place.
Ten people are gathered in a private room, and there is a feeling of being a little crowded. In order to take revenge on Naruto, this guy brought so many people to kill him, Yuzo deliberately asked Hinata to sit with Naruto when he arranged the position, which made Hinata blush all the time, and it looked like he was about to faint. As for next to himself, it is naturally Ino and Shikamaru. Sakura sat next to Sasuke as she wished, and gave Yuzo a grateful look at the place she had arranged.
After scribbling frantically on the menu with a pen, Ding Ci gave the menu to the next person, and it seemed that he was still a little unsatisfied. Fortunately, even if there are ten people, the salary paid some time ago will definitely be able to do it, if it is really not enough, then leave Naruto here to brush dishes and work to pay back.
In a group of people, except for Sasuke who looked at Yuzo from time to time, they were all immersed in happiness, and plates of various barbecues were served and then snatched up by everyone. Originally, in fact, no one would grab it except Ding Ci, but when the atmosphere came, everyone began to rob, and they all felt very happy.
The commotion on one side was in stark contrast to the quietness of the three people on the other side, and Ning Ci's white eyes only had the barbecue grill in front of him, and he ate slowly and silently. What is Xiao Li Mei talking about, probably about the topic of youth? Every day is like a little girl in the Republic of China, with a bun hairstyle, a cute taste in Chinese style, and her expression is boring and uncomfortable.
Xiao Li's eyes turned to the bread box, and after looking at it for a while, he said, "Ning Ci, I seem to have seen a girl with white eyes like you!" You should know her, right? That said..."
At this time, Xiao Li suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, he didn't continue to ask Ning Ci about the white-eyed girl, but disappeared in front of the two teammates and rushed into the box where Yuzang was located.
I saw him take a girl's hand and loudly declare his love for this girl he met for the first time: "Oh! Beautiful lady, please mingle with me! The first time I saw you, I was actually fascinated by you! So, please socialize with me! Please! ”
Not to mention how broken Sakura's heart was at this time, Naruto immediately exploded, and he wanted to jump up angrily and kill this guy in green clothes with watermelon skin. Sakura's hand has never touched it herself, this guy actually pulled and touched it directly for a while, and confessed, no! I'm going to kill him!
Yuzo remembered that there was indeed such a scene in the original book, Xiao Li confessed to Sakura, but this matter should not have been mentioned again later. The reason why Xiao Li likes Sakura is probably because she is more in line with his aesthetics. But thinking about the aesthetics of Xiao Li's master and apprentice, this truth is not very thorough.
Holding down Naruto, who was struggling, Yuzo glanced at everyone who was shocked by Xiao Li's confession, except for Ding Ji, who was still taking the opportunity to eat, and even Shikamaru looked at Xiao Li with a foolish look.
"Ahem, this friend, may I ask who you are?" As the host of the treat, at this time, Yuzo had to stand up and deal with the situation, and sure enough, the treat was troublesome, and if he had known, he would have pulled Ino alone. However, Ino and Shikamaru Dingji are always together as a trio, and it is very difficult to avoid Dingji's sensitive sense of smell for food.
"Huh? Haven't I introduced myself yet? That's right, my name for me is Rock Lee! It's the lower ninja who graduated last year.,I'm about to take the middle ninja exam.,I'm sure to become a middle ninja this time.,So that I won't live up to my youth! Xiao Li leaked out the shiny white teeth in his mouth, without the slightest sense of shame, and talked about the topic of youth inherited from his master.
Tian Tian appeared behind Xiao Li and punched him hard, and then apologized with a smile while dragging him out: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry everyone, my companion really doesn't know what to do, I'm sorry to disturb you..."
After a certain melon peel was dragged away, the atmosphere gradually returned, and Naruto was just complaining that Yuzo was stopping him from teaching Xiao Li a lesson, and at this time he returned to the ranks of grabbing food.
Including Ino, they all had a good time smiling this afternoon. Even Sasuke's face didn't seem to be so cold, this was the conclusion that Sakura had been observing.
