Chapter 40: The Art of the Water Prison
Araki's posture looked very calm, and after knowing the content of the interview assessment, he didn't show any panic, and the smile that appeared faintly between his eyebrows showed a touch of confidence.
Such a state immediately attracted the attention of several people in Tsunade.
Especially Tsunade.
She knew too well what such an assessment meant, without at least three months of cultivation in the Palm Immortal Technique, it was impossible to extend the life of that fish for ten minutes.
A few people who came in front of Araki were all older than Araki, and after knowing such an assessment, they all changed their colors, and there were few people who could pass it.
As it stands......
Either this little guy doesn't understand the difficulty of the assessment at all, or he can handle it with ease.
This only made Tsunade, who was ready to speak out to persuade Araki to quit, look forward to it even more.
……
"Bang!"
With an explosive sound, a live fish suddenly jumped out of the technique, the scales were still shining with a splash, the round eyes were full of confusion, and the closed mouth revealed that there was an inexplicable doubt about the current situation.
The fish was swimming well in the fish pond when it suddenly felt the call of a mysterious power, and instantly crossed time and space to come here.
Almost instantly, the discomfort of being detached from the water source lingered all over the body, and the gills felt like suffocation.
"Smack!"
The fish jumped into the air and fell on the reel, and then the tail drove the fish body to flutter constantly, and the whole body was full of discomfort after dehydration, and the whole fish was not good.
"You...... You're slightly ...... Bear with me......"
Araki looked at the fish fluttering on the table scroll, and now that the fish was out of the water, even if it fluttered harder, it wouldn't deviate far, but it couldn't run away.
It's just that......
He had no intention of going to the rescue.
This made Tsunade and the others frown in unison, and the doubts in their eyes gradually turned into disappointment.
As the saying goes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
Araki's previous sentence of studying medicine for the rise of Konoha raised the expectations in their hearts to a great height, and now the sense of disparity made their hearts empty, as if they were holding on to them.
However......
Just as Tsunade was about to speak......
Araki suddenly moved.
His hands began to seal one by one, and the one he used was not a medical ninjutsu at all, but a serious ninjutsu.
"Water Escape: Water Prison Technique!"
After Araki finished sealing, he suddenly reached out his right hand and grabbed the fish.
On the surface, it looked like he was catching a fish, but the moment his palm stretched out, the chakra on his palm began to condense into streams of water.
The currents swirled rapidly around each other, forming a ball of water that trapped the fish in it.
The water dungeon in Araki's hand is not very large, and it is maintained at the size of a basketball, so it can be said that it is just right to wrap the fish in it.
For the enemy, the water dungeon is a technique to restrain the opponent, but for this fish, it provides it with a space to survive.
Suddenly, the fish, which had just been in an extremely uncomfortable state, swam happily in the not spacious water prison.
"This ......"
Tsunade and the others glanced at each other, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes, and they had interviewed many people in the past.
Some people passed to become medical ninjas, and some people didn't pass to say goodbye to this profession.
But it's the first time they've seen people like Araki who use water escape ninjutsu to save fish.
Not far away.
Seeing such a scene, Rope Tree's nervous face reappeared with a smile.
"Well done!"
Rope tree clenched his fists tightly, beads of sweat were already breaking out of his palms, he was a very warm and kind person in his bones, although Araki's affairs had nothing to do with him, but he still sweated for Araki.
All of a sudden.
Except for Araki, the eyes of the four people in the audience were all focused on the water prison.
The only suspense in the interview assessment seems to be whether this water prison can last for more than ten minutes.
But......
From Araki's expressionless face, there was nothing difficult to see at all.
This made everyone's heart understand that ten minutes was not a problem at all, and that the fish not only did not die, but could return to the pond.
Gradually.
As the minutes ticked by.
Araki held the water prison for a full eight minutes.
The expression on Tsunade's face also changed, from the original shock and confusion to a relieved smile, and the bright eyes were filled with curiosity.
"Interesting."
Tsunade muttered to herself in a voice that only she could hear, it wasn't ten minutes yet, and it was too early to say anything before the results were fully out, but her heart was already expecting Araki to survive ten minutes.
That's it......
The entire conference room waited in silence.
Ten minutes were up.
The fish was still swimming happily in the dungeon.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, an air explosion sounded, as if the time had come for the psychic contract, and the fish in the water dungeon had disappeared.
Seeing this, Araki put away the chakra, and the water dungeon on his right hand suddenly spilled on the floor of the conference room like a burst water balloon.
"Araki, you're cheating, do you understand?"
Tsunade's smile suddenly retracted, and his voice became serious and sharp, as if he had seen a teacher whose students had made mistakes, and suddenly, the momentum exploded.
Tsunade's sudden attack made the rest of the people a little dumbfounded, but no one spoke, silently watching.
"I ...... Let the fish ...... Survived......" Araki replied unhurriedly.
"But you didn't use medical ninjutsu!"
Tsunade's eyes were extremely domineering, and a stream of chakra rose up, making the momentum emanating from her even more majestic.
In an instant, Araki felt a strong feeling of suffocation, as if a heavy mountain was pressing on his shoulders.
Is this the momentum of Konoha Sannin!
It's just that......
The Araki surface does not change color.
He understands that whatever happens now.
He can't even take half a step back!
"What if...... Not a fish...... It's people...... That...... I let him ...... Survived! ”
Araki said without being arrogant or humble, he clutched a truth tightly, any form of saving people is saving people!
There is no distinction between high and low to save people!
Whether it's medicine (chemical), surgery (physical), or medical ninjutsu (magic), as long as it can save people, it's the right thing to do.
Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!
At this moment, a smile appeared on Tsunade's face again, as bright as a sunny day after a rain, and there was still the tense aura just now.
"Not bad!"
"Not bad!"
"Very good!"
"Araki, you're doing great!"
"The medical skills of the ninja world are not just medical ninjutsu, today you taught me a lesson!"
Tsunade stood up as she spoke, looking at Araki with a look of great satisfaction, she had never seen a junior who could impress her like this.
"But ......"
However, at this time, Tsunade suddenly changed his words.
"I can't let you pass, at your current age, it's more suitable for a ninja school, you can think of such a way, it shows that your thinking is very out-of-the-box, and becoming a medical ninja will limit your thinking, which is not good for you."
