Chapter 84: Acquaintances

Because the second exam will take five days to finish, in order to prevent candidates from coming to the Central Tower early and completing the second exam early, Konoha has also prepared a rest room in the tower for candidates who have come to their destination first to rest and wait for the arrival of other candidates.

As for the "fairness" of the pre-selection of the third exam, so that the candidates who came in advance could not rest at ease and recuperate, this situation is impossible to happen, the strength of both sides of the battlefield is unequal in many cases, not to mention that the starting point of this exam is the same, the strength is not enough, the performance is not good, then you can only try your best to make up for it in the next exam, as the organizer of Konoha Village is not an amiable nanny, everything takes care of the backward candidates, and the time to come to the central tower is late, and you don't get enough rest, so the failure of the pre-selection in the third exam can only be attributed to his own strength, and Konoha Village will not take care of it, and the elimination is just as ruthless.

Under the leadership of the flying bamboo dragonfly, the six people in the eighth and tenth classes of Konoha Shinobi lived in two rooms respectively, and the environment in the room was average, after all, this was just a place for the candidates who came to the central tower first to rest, and it was good to have a separate room.

Shikamaru, Ino, and Dingji, after saying goodbye to Inuzuka and other members of the eighth class, entered the room, just gave a breath, slowed down the tense nerves, and rested for a few minutes, there was a knock on the door, and after Ino stepped forward to open the door, he found that outside the door was Gangzitie, who had gone and returned.

"What's the matter? Predecessor? After Ino saw Gangzitie, he was slightly stunned and asked the other party out loud.

"Hokage-sama wants to find Nara Shikamaru." Gangzitie's gaze crossed to Ino and looked at Shikamaru sitting on a wooden bench in the house, and motioned to him, "Come with me!" ”

Hearing this, Shikamaru quickly got up, he also had some conjectures about the situation where he was summoned alone, the middle ninja exam is the top priority, and it will not be terminated because of Orochimaru's relationship anyway, and this exam is also related to the future of Konoha candidates such as Inuzuka Ya, as well as their performance in the exam, which is not only related to individuals, but also related to the face of Konoha represented in the third exam in the future, if this matter affects the state of these Konoha candidates, it is a pity.

But the process of how the six people of the eighth and tenth classes killed and met Kawakawa Qiwan always have to be understood, in comparison, judging from Shikamaru's current performance, compared to other people in the same class, they are always much better in strength and temperament, and they are indeed the most suitable candidates to ask.

Shikamaru nodded to Ino and Dingji, signaling that the two of them were relieved, and then followed Gangzitetsu out of the room and went to the upper floor of the tower, where the three generations of Hokage were located.

After arriving at the door of the studio, Gangzitie stopped and knocked on the door, waiting for an echo from inside.

"Come in!" It wasn't until a low voice came from inside that Gangzitie slowly opened the door, letting Shikamaru enter the room first, and he turned to leave, closing the door at the same time.

The moment Shikamaru walked into the room, he quickly looked at the environment in the house with his eyes, which is still in line with the simple use style of the ninja, even if it is a place for the head of a village to temporarily work and rest, there are not too many useless and extravagant decorations, the space in the house is very large, but there is very little furniture, so it is slightly empty, there are several bookshelves, which are full of scrolls, I don't know if it is a ninjutsu secret, or an office document, on the wall facing the door, there is a pair of brush words, on the word "ninja way", the penmanship is round, There is a solemn atmosphere between the turns.,Although it's not a calligraphy.,But Shikamaru also thinks that the person who wrote this word.,Must be a great ninja.,Have a unique understanding of the ninja experience.。

Behind the desk, sitting on a large and comfortable chair is an easy-going old man, with a thin figure and slightly dark skin, and a pure white cloak draped over the body is slightly loose.

"We'll meet again, Shikamaru." The three generations of Hokage Ape Fei Sun Slash seemed to be really looking at the information before, and after Shikamaru entered the house, he closed the scroll, chuckled, and said to Shikamaru, who was standing solemnly not far in front of him: "I haven't congratulated you on passing the two exams yet, I hope you can maintain this momentum of victory in the next exams." ”

"Sit down first, I have something to ask you." Sarutobi said casually, pointing to a wooden chair next to Shikamaru, without the slightest momentum and commanding posture, to Sarutobi Slash now in Konoha, and even in the ninja world, there is no longer a need to maintain the so-called majesty at all times, the kind of leader who always maintains a majestic and cold temperament, but most of them are those who lack command strength and leadership, just like Shikamaru in his previous life, some leaders of big countries, even if they often have an easy-going and pro-people attitude, no one will feel that they can be bullied, and the huge gap between identity and status, which is enough to make up for this.

Shikamaru hesitated slightly, but finally sat down on a chair next to him and looked at Sarutobi.

"The ninja disguised as a candidate from the Grass Ninja Village that you meet in the tenth class of the tenth class and the six people in the eighth class in the Death Forest is indeed not the Shinobi who took this exam." After seeing Shikamaru sit down, Sarutobi pondered for a moment and then spoke: "It should be the middle ninja or upper ninja of other ninja villages, who violated the rules of the middle ninja exam and entered the forest of death, so I hope you can explain to me in detail the process of the six of you from meeting this ninja to ending the battle." ”

Shikamaru heard the words of the ape flying sun,,Nod,And then slowly the combination of the eighth and tenth classes of the Konoha Shinobi,And the reason for the combination,And then when hunting other teams,Met the fragrant phosphorus of the grass ninja village,Under the explanation of the other party,I feel that this ninja disguised as the grass ninja village is a strong enemy,So I was ready to eradicate it.,After some arrangement,But I found that the other party's strength was strong.,Almost failed.,Finally, in the case of a few injuries,,Finally killed it.,And then Shikamaru "inadvertently" discovered the other party's camouflage, And he couldn't find this candidate in his memory, and he was linked to the strength he had shown before, so he doubted the identity of this person, so he brought the corpse to the central tower.

"That's right......." Sarutobi listened quietly to Shikamaru's explanation, occasionally asking some questions softly, and after getting Shikamaru's answer, he finally figured out the whole process.

Shikamaru didn't want to find any flaws in Sarutobi Richo, what he did was indeed nothing suspicious, some coincidences existed, and it was also acceptable, so Sarutobi Rizap's questions didn't need to be concealed and deceitful, and the answers were fluent.

"Your two teams have been outstanding." After listening to Shikamaru's answer, Sarutobi nodded with satisfaction, and didn't think there was anything wrong with the combination of the two teams of the eighth class and the tenth class, as a ninja, he should create favorable conditions for himself on the battlefield at any time, as big as the war between the ninja village and the ninja village, as small as the battle between the ninja and the ninja, it should be like this, since the two teams of the eighth and tenth classes were not prepared in advance, but after understanding the rules of the exam, the plan was made, then it was beyond reproach.

Ninja is a profession of war, and although the way of survival has changed for hundreds of years, its essence has not changed, that is, the pursuit of victory in war and battle, or rather, the essence of any kind of war profession.

Before the ninja replaced the samurai, as the mainstream of the war of samurai practice, the book of war is also an extremely important part, those who like to fight the sword to the death, expound the concept of fair duels, or wild samurai - that is, ronin - between brave fights, or use this as a promotion fund, the real samurai, as a high-level soldier in the war, if you really like to do this, which will be reused.

The difference in concept between the war class and the swordsman is very different.

Now that he has understood the process of Shikamaru and the others meeting and fighting with Kawakawa Saiman, Sarutobi does not need to ask Shikamaru anymore, and more questions also need the professional corpse processing team of Konoha Village, as well as the intelligence department to obtain it through Kawakawa Saiwan's corpse, so it is also signaled that Shikamaru can leave on his own.

Seeing this, Shikamaru saluted Sarutobi, and then slowly exited the door, outside the door, Gangzi Iron happened to lead two Konoha ninjas, walking from one end of the corridor.

Seeing this, Shikamaru squinted slightly, one of the middle-aged men who followed behind Gangzitie was slightly thin, with black-framed glasses, and his expression was slightly shy, and he was still an acquaintance, and Chiba Yuan, who had a half-teacher friendship with him!

Chiba Yuan's side, with him behind Gangzitie, was a tall and sturdy, middle-aged male ninja with a thick appearance, with a little beard at the corner of his mouth, looking extremely stable.

Sure enough, Shikamaru stopped for a moment, and the three of them had already come to him, and when Chiba Gen saw Shikamaru, his expression was also a little surprised, and he nodded with a chuckle.

"I didn't expect you to pass this exam!" Chiba Gen approached and greeted Shikamaru, provoking the tall ninja beside him to also look down at Shikamaru.

"Your teachings have helped me a lot, Chiba-senpai!" Shikamaru said seriously, Chiba Yuan's teachings not only made Shikamaru learn medical ninjutsu, but also made progress in chakra control, thanks to his help, Shikamaru's words are indeed not water and compliments, but heartfelt words.

Seeing Shikamaru say this, Chiba Gen seemed a little shy, subconsciously wiped the tip of his nose, and said, "I still have some work to do, so I won't talk to you more." ”

Shikamaru nodded, although he was a little interested in his arrival, but he wisely did not ask, sometimes excess curiosity is not a good thing.

After seeing Gangzi Iron leading Chiba Yuan, and the tall male shinobi entering the office where Sarutobi Hizashi was, Shikamaru turned around and left, the most important thing at the moment is to adjust his state and deal with the next exam!
