Chapter IX: Evaluation
Chapter 9 Evaluation
Asma took a deep puff of cigarette, and then unconsciously spit out a string of smoke rings, he is now a little uncertain about his judgment, what is in Ino's hand is not a real cigarette, and it is not in Dingji's hand, it stands to reason that the most likely is in Shikamaru's hands, but his judgment and behavior before seemed to be expected by Shikamaru, so it should be in Dingji's hands? But who knows if Shikamaru will be able to guess what he is thinking now.
Asma, who is a shinobi, shouldn't be so hesitant, and Shikamaru's scheming that can almost penetrate people's hearts makes him a little jealous. Asma looked at his watch, it had been more than forty minutes since the beginning of the mission, in addition to chasing, it took the most time to interrogate Ding Ji and subdue Shikamaru with illusions, and he could only chase Shikamaru to see the time, and it had been nearly twenty minutes since he had subdued him, and if he chased Dingji, Shikamaru would have enough time to return to Konoha. Asma has no choice but to chase Shikamaru.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Shikamaru, who was agile and leaping in the forest, roughly calculated the time, and felt that Asma should be about to catch up with him, so he sealed his hands: "Shadow Clone Technique!" A shadow clone appeared next to him and nodded to him, then moved on. Although there is a lot of chakra that needs to be consumed, the shadow clone is a very practical ninjutsu in many cases, so Shikamaru once deliberately learned from Nara Shikaku.
Of course, Shikamaru is not Naruto, it is impossible to use the shadow clone to cultivate, the shadow clone technique is to cultivate experience, I have seen many people who actually say that the shadow clone can cultivate chakra, which makes people cry and laugh, the shadow clone is made by the caster using chakra, there is no flesh at all, and the shadow clone mentioned in the original book is just to increase the experience of cultivation, how to cultivate the chakra that extracts energy from the flesh? And excessive consumption of chakra is extremely damaging to the body, Naruto is due to having the Nine-Tails Seal in the body, and after exhausting the chakra, there is also a part of the chakra that he seals the Nine-Tails and the Nine-Tails to replenish, Kakashi knows this method, why not use it when training Sasuke in the middle ninja exam? Without him, apart from Naruto's open-minded character, who can train with the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique? Is it long?
Shikamaru himself was quietly hidden in a shadow, not thinking about the gains and losses, and no longer thinking about Asma's follow-up, recalling the situation when he often meditated in the special small dark room at home, completely melting his mind into the darkness, imagining himself as a part of the darkness, like wandering in the darkness in his previous life, like the silence after death. The heart beats slowly, the breathing is slow and long, Shikamaru had studied yoga seriously in his previous life to give him a lot of help, there is no need to hold his breath, the decrease in oxygen will make the heart more burdened, more violent beating.
Shikamaru quietly watched Asma pass not far away, chasing the shadow clone he made, and after waiting for a while, he walked out of the shadows and quickly rushed from the other direction like Konoha.
Only three minutes later, Shikamaru in the leap smiled bitterly, the time for the use of the shadow clone was up, which also meant that Asma would immediately catch up with him. Shikamaru couldn't help but speed up when he thought of this.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Asma dodged the eight shuriken, "Smack! He raised his left arm to block Shikamaru's high-flying side kick, grabbed Shikamaru's ankle, and threw him out. Shikamaru's shadow mimicry technique has just been cast, but it has already been thrown out by Asma. He still can't use shadow mimicry with one hand like Nara Shikaku, and he can't use shadow mimicry like Shikamaru in the second part of the original book without maintaining his handprint.
One turned around, stepped on the trunk of the tree with both feet and kicked hard, and quickly rushed towards Asma, while his hands were sealed: "Doppelganger Technique!" β
A puff of smoke temporarily blocked Asma's vision, and a total of five Shikamaru rushed towards Asma, Asma pouted, ignoring the other three Shikamaru or kicking or kicking, grabbing one of them by the ankle and smashing it on the other's body, "Bang! "The smoke cleared, and one of them was a shadow clone.
Shikamaru, who had been smashed into a rolling gourd, quickly rolled over and flickered his eyes, but he still didn't jump backwards into the shadows of the woods to avoid Asma's line of sight. He has very few hole cards now, this is just a test, judging from the time, the three of them are going to win too, there is no need to directly expose his latent skills.
Asma didn't chase either, and after looking at his watch, he asked Shikamaru bluntly, "The cigarette is not on you?" "Time is running out now, less than ten minutes before the end of the hour, Shikamaru's previous fight was also based on procrastination and entanglement, not hiding and escaping, and if Shikamaru has a cigarette on him, he should avoid facing Asma.
"......" Shikamaru nodded.
"Dingji is almost back at the Konoha Gate......," Asma seemed to say to herself, lighting a cigarette for herself, her expression looking a little annoyed, "Really, I lost to three shinobi imps." β
Hearing Asma's words, Shikamaru relaxed slightly, Asma's attitude proved that his conjecture was not wrong, and they passed the test.
Shikamaru, who rushed back to Konoha with Asma, unexpectedly saw Dingji who was with the shinobi on duty, Izukumo, and after waiting for a while, Ino also rushed back from the woods.
"Although I don't want to admit it, but the second test is that you are very perfect, and from today onwards, you are truly forbearing." After Shikamaru told SΓΉ Ino the news of the test, Asma said to the three of them, "As the first day of officially becoming your instructor, I have decided to treat you to a barbecue!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the barbecue restaurant, Ino was still puzzled and asked, "Teacher Asma, why don't you take the third test?" β
Ding Ci was almost choked by this sentence, and finally stopped eating nonsense, staring at Ino, since the three of them had already passed the guΓ² test, Ino's question naturally seemed a little redundant.
Asma smiled when she heard this, but instead of answering, she said to Shikamaru, "Tell me about your strategy in the second test." β
Shikamaru thought silently, then raised three fingers and said to the three of them: "My plan in the second test only relies on three points - tacit understanding with teammates, speculation on ways of thinking, and analysis of intelligence. β
"I grew up playing with Dingji and Ino, so I was very understanding of the two of them, and I turned my cigarette into a chocolate bar and put it in the box without the two of them seeing it, because I was sure that Dingji would definitely ask for that box of chocolate bars." Shikamaru smiled at Ding Ji, no matter how good it is, being kept in the dark may also cause love, just take this opportunity to explain
"This action is not deliberate, this is Ding Ci's personality and habits, so even if you use illusion, if you can't take the initiative to ask this question, Ding Ci will not take the initiative to say this. Ding Ji thought that after being taken away from the real cigarettes, he would definitely feel that he had betrayed our trust and was angry...... "Speaking of this, Shikamaru smiled apologetically at Ding Ji and continued: "The angry Ding Ji will launch an offensive against snacks, and the chocolate bar that is easy to spoil will become his first choice, and Ding Ji will also find the real cigarette for the first time." This is the tacit understanding with my teammates. β
"You borrowed a ninja bag from Ino before, deliberately explained, and deliberately let Ding Ci see you looking at a thousand books, all in order to let Ding Ci's subconscious remember this 'strange' move, and downplay the previous behavior?" Asma said that after the illusion hypnosis, the recipient is not awake, only knows how to answer questions mechanically, and it is impossible to talk as usual, and even what to eat today, what color of underwear is something that the subconscious thinks is very common.
"Yes, Ino will also distance herself from you after you waste time on hypnosis, and you will be in a dilemma after catching up with Ino and discovering that she doesn't actually have a real cigarette in her hand." Looking at Shikamaru's calm face, Asma couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "In fact, if it weren't for your shadow clone to mislead me, I should still have time to catch up with Ding Ji after catching up with you, you seemed to have done your best when you ambushed me for the first time, but in fact, you didn't leave a hand at all, you were misleading me." β
Shikamaru nodded and said, "This is a speculation on the way of thinking. β
"And what about that last point? What intelligence? Asma asked.
"First, you can get the information of our foot strength in the first test, therefore, I have the information that 'the other party knows our foot strength', I can know the order in which you are chasing;Second, I know that you are the upper ninja, and I have the information of your approximate strength, so I can know that the three of us are not your opponents combined, and we can only disperse, and the effect of pestering you in the battle will not be great, and I can only delay you from the journey; third, this is the lower ninja test, so you will not interrogate me in the way of real intelligence torture;Fourth... Shikamaru paused, deliberately revealing a bitter smile.
"And the fourth?" The first three points of 'intelligence' analyzed by Shikamaru were expected by Asma, but he didn't expect a fourth point.
"Fourth, your third test ......, the second test you set for us, didn't go beyond our limits and became a task that couldn't be completed at all, so you can say that you still want us to win this test, don't you? You didn't use a shadow clone, and that's how my whole project was done. Shikamaru was silent after speaking, if Asma made an impossible task like snatching the bell like Kakashi in the original book, Shikamaru would not have to set up such a big set, in the face of absolute strength, any resourcefulness can only be a support, for example, if Asma used his shadow clone to chase the three of them separately at the beginning this time!
But this is contrary to the idea of this test that Asma deliberately planned, since you are not supposed to complete it in the first place, then why is it so troublesome? Ninjas aren't that laid-back, and even if they were, they wouldn't be boring enough to waste time on this kind of test. Then relying on the reckless solo work of three people or the unplanned rush will definitely not pass this test, which is also the second point of the second assessment, and it is also likely to be the third test.
Asma was a little silent after listening to Shikamaru's words, analyzing, planning, and inducing ......, Shikamaru's various schemes have even made him change from admiration to amazement, from this point of view, many shinobi are not as good as Shikamaru.
Asma calmed his mind a little and said, "Ninjas often act with their companions during missions, and if you want to complete the mission, you must better cooperate with the companions around you. If you're in a leadership position on this team, you need to get to know everyone around you as quickly as possible. If you're the executor, then you have to be completely obedient to orders, and knowing that is the biggest help for the team. That's what I tested you in the second test, and my third test, teamwork, and ...... you guys were perfect. I want to congratulate you, from today onwards, you will be the ninjas of Konoha Ninja Village! β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The next day, in the Hokage's office, the ten teams of Shinobi who graduated this year all came to the Hokage's office and reported to the Hokage the assessment of the Shinobi he had brought within three days.
Basically, the attitudes of the major ninja villages towards the lower ninja are different, such as the Wuyin Village believes in the laws of nature, the weak eat the strong, and the survival of the fittest; Konoha Village is different, using tests and other methods to extract its excellent, and those who are not good enough to continue learning, in a short period of time, the lower ninja of Wuyin Village is much better than its peers after a tragic fight. But from a long-term perspective, selecting a good enough shinobi to cultivate wholeheartedly, and letting the shinobi whose strength is still relatively fragile continue to study, can send more talents and fresh blood to Konoha later, and it is also easier for young people not to have a centripetal force towards the ninja village - like Kirigakure, it is difficult not to let those surviving children have a grudge against the village, and lose the life and the seeds that can create the descendants of the ninja in the future.
Therefore, for the graduation of Konoha Shinobi, the Hokage of all generations attaches great importance to it, and three days after the end of the test, the Hokage will listen to the evaluation of the Shinobi and decide the attitude of the future treatment, such as: acceptable task level, if the strength is not enough, use the lowest level of relatively safe tasks to hone it first, and if the strength is enough, you can use a slightly higher level character to cultivate its experience. Don't think that Kirigakure's behavior is the so-called elite route, Konoha's policy is really the most secure, reasonable and excellent policy, as evidenced by the fact that he can become and maintain the head of the five major ninja villages, and the emergence of talents is also a good example.
After signing the last Hokage Saruto with his name, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi raised his head and said to the ten shinobi who were standing quietly in front of him, "Let's start with the first class." β
The first class instructor Shinobu didn't know that Genma answered, and he knotted the seal with one hand, saying that this world, the development of ninjas so far, is not at all comparable to the lowly colleagues in Shikamaru's previous life, as can be seen from the unique etiquette of various ninjas that have gradually developed, at this time, the seal is naturally an expression of respect for the Hokage, as well as the responsibility for the following words to be said: "In the name of the leader of the first class of the Konoha Ninja Village, Shimoshinobi, the first group of personnel will be evaluated-Inoue Shinji, E; Kato Lan, E; Kei Kinoshita, E; Overall Panel Assessment: E. β
Konoha stipulates that each Shinobi instructor must make a comprehensive evaluation of the Shinobi in the test, including: development potential, personal strength, and ideological qualities, divided into A, B, C, D, and E five levels, E is failing, D is passing, C is qualified, B is good, A is excellent, of course, it is positioned according to their current Shinobi status, A or B level does not mean that they have reached the upper ninja or middle ninja. When the three generations of Hokage heard this, they only nodded, and the appearance of these three people in the ninja school was only mediocre, so naturally it would not attract his attention, so he didn't say anything, and motioned for the next upper ninja to continue.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After several shinobi finished one after another, it was finally the turn of the seventh class led by Kakashi, whether it was Naruto Uzumaki or Sasuke Uchiha, there was a place that was valued by the three generations of Hokage, and when Kakashi sealed the report, Sarutobi couldn't help but cheer up: "In the name of the leader of the seventh class of the Konoha Ninja Village, the seventh class of the lower ninja, evaluate the members of the seventh group - Uchiha Sasuke, C; Naruto Uzumaki, D; Sakura Haruno, E, Group Overall Rating: D. β
Although the score is not high, but the first six groups have been killed, if it is an ordinary team, it can naturally make Sarutobi satisfied, but the seventh class with Uchiha and human pillar power, the score is only barely passing, which naturally makes Sarutobi slash frown slightly, but out of respect and trust in Kakashi, he did not have the slightest doubt, with the experience and growth, the upper ninjas have their own values, and when leading newcomers, they will unconsciously ask them according to this, Kakashi's experience, the three generations of Hokage are naturally clear, Even if Sasuke and Naruto show excellent strength, if they don't work well as a team, the score will inevitably be depressed.
"Tell me about your tests and their tables, Kakashi." Sarutobi instructed, although it is trusted, but the seventh class will become a member of the Konoha ninja family in the future, and as the Hokage, he should naturally have a certain understanding of it, which is also common sense.
"Yes!" Kakashi spoke in a calm tone about his test and the expressions of the seventh class, and Sarutobi nodded and shook his head.
It wasn't until after listening to Kakashi's description that Sarutobi slashed his pipe, a little disappointed in Naruto's appearance, but he still cheered up and motioned for Sunset Red to continue.
As a newcomer to the upper ninja, the sunset red made a seal with one hand, with a solemn expression: "In the name of the leader of the eighth class of the Konoha Ninja Village, the eighth group of people will be evaluated-Oil Girl Shino, B; Inuzuka, C; Hinata Hinata, D, Group Overall Evaluation: B. β
The results of the eighth class are good, although Shino and Ya are not as good as the three of Pig, Deer and Butterfly in school, but they also have a certain tacit understanding, Hinata Hinata simply has no opinions, although Ya is still a little frivolous, but Shino, who has good grades and a certain strategy, is still the core for the time being, unlike the seventh group of three people who are completely fighting on their own, and the evaluation of the guide zhì is lowered. The overall parity of this group is the evaluation of their teamwork ability in the test, and in comparison, the team work of several people in class 8 is quite good. Being able to defeat the veteran Kamishino Kakashi also makes Red feel a little happy.
Sarufei Ri nodded, feeling a little more relaxed in his heart, after all, Konoha still has a lot of talents, and motioned for the lower upper ninja to continue.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After a while, it was Sarutobi Asma's turn to evaluate the tenth class he led, even in the face of his father, but the discipline of the ninja still made him, like the other colleagues in the room, with a solemn and solemn one-handed seal: "In the name of the leader of the tenth class of the Konoha Ninja Village, the tenth group of Shimoshino, evaluate the members of the tenth group - Yamanaka Ino, B; Autumn Dao Dingji, B; Nara Shikamaru ......, A, Group Overall Evaluation: A! β
"What?" Sunset Red asked in surprise, the little sense of superiority just now is gone, the A-level evaluation is very, very small, and it is generally for a genius like Kakashi, who is quickly promoted, and besides, the other two shinobi are also B-level? Although she knew that it was impossible, Red still felt that Asma was a little exaggerated.
The remaining few ninjas also seemed a little surprised, everyone knew a little about each other's classes, and Asma was bringing a new generation of pigs and deer butterflies also knew, and because of this, they were a little surprised, the ninjutsu of the three clans was originally to make up for each other, there was a tacit understanding, and the group's overall evaluation A was not enough to surprise others too much, but the personal evaluation was so high, it was really hard to believe.
Ape Fei Ri Chop was thoughtful, and ordered: "Asma, tell me about your test and the table of the tenth class." β
"Okay." Asma replied a little dullly, and then began to recount his test and the table of the tenth class, focusing on the second test, Shikamaru's calm analysis, accurate judgment of the human heart, and his unwitting misdirection, shadow doppelganger, shadow imitation, and resistance to illusion......
After the narration, although the surrounding Shangnin was not as shocked as Asma had seen with his own eyes, he also showed some surprise.
When the three generations of Hokage Sarutobi heard this, they nodded, with an obvious smile on their faces, and instructed the upper ninjas: "The three squads of the TongguΓ² test team will stay, and the others can leave." β
"Yes!" The shinobi replied in unison and walked out of the office one after another.
The three generations of Hokage stepped out from behind their desks, sipped their pipes, and said to the three of them as they walked: "This is a rare time of peace in the ninja world, in comparison, the growth of Shimoshinobi is much safer, we can't guarantee that there will be no more wars in the future, so before the war, the three of you must make these children with great potential grow up to the fullest, they are the future of Konoha, I hope you can understand this." β
"Yes!" The three of them replied respectfully.
