Chapter 19: Orochimaru's new apprentice

Ninja School Playground.

All the students in Class A of the year formed a big circle.

Naoto Yamanaka stood in the circle, holding a roster, mobilizing.

"This test is not only because Orochimaru accepted apprentices, but also because of the school's test, so I hope everyone will show all their strength. Do you understand? ”

"Understood!"

Natsume and the others replied in unison.

"Yes, very energetic."

Naoto Yamanaka flipped through the roster and said, "I'll call the names out of the list and have a battle, and the winner will advance to the next round." ”

Natsume sat down cross-legged.

There is one thing to say, the situation on the field can only be described in four words, rookies pecking each other.

The graduation criterion for ninja schools is to learn the three-body technique.

As you can imagine, there are many dishes in the first grade.

Natsume has now learned five ninjutsu.

In addition to the Three-Body Technique, there are also Instant Body Techniques and Water Escape and Water Waves.

He could have pointed at them and said: Uchiha Itachi stood up first, and everyone present was garbage.

Natsume looked at it for a while and saw the pattern.

The winners are basically ninja students.

There is no way, civilian students are congenitally deficient and cannot get in touch with more advanced ninja knowledge.

For example, Sakura Haruno.

The early plot performance is average, it's okay to call Sasuke, there's something to call Naruto, and it's a live drag bottle.

But she is already the best among civilian students, and she can be called a scholar.

Others, even worse.

"Natsume vs. Hydra Kenji."

Naoto Yamanaka looked at the roster and shouted.

When Natsume heard his name, he immediately got up, and Shi Shiran walked into the circle.

"Come on! Natsume! ”

A group of girls cheered him on.

"Damn! Is it amazing to be good-looking? ”

The nine-headed dragon Kenji was full of unwillingness, and said, "I must defeat you!" ”

"Do you know how to play shogi?" Natsume asked.

"What...... Is it? Nine-headed Ryuji was stunned.

Please, be serious!

I'm trash talking to you, and you're asking me if I can play shogi?

Can you give some respect?

"Do you know how to play shogi?"

Natsume repeated it again and said, "I have a friend who is also surnamed Hydra, and he is very good at shogi, and he is called the Dragon King. ”

"No!"

Nine-Headed Long Kenji said in a stiff tone, "It won't be useful for you to climb the relationship now. ”

Okay.

Natsume doesn't talk nonsense anymore.

Transience.

Chakra air flow surrounded his legs, and he suddenly appeared in front of the nine-headed dragon Kenji, kicked out, he couldn't react at all, and landed in a flat sand and falling goose style.

"Natsume wins."

Naoto Yamanaka saw that the nine-headed dragon Kenji could not get up again for a long time, so he immediately announced.

The Uchiha Itachi, who was not far away, nodded.

The teleportation technique is okay.

But it's far from being as good as Brother Zhishui.

"Uchiha Itachi vs. Uchiha Lynx."

Natsume sat back down and looked at Itachi Uchiha.

Well, three-second man.

He saw Uchiha Itachi come on and then go down.

The playground left the unconscious Inner Lynx.

The action was so fast that most people didn't see it clearly.

Natsume estimated that the current Uchiha Itachi was close to the level of the middle ninja.

Battle after match.

In the end, there were only two people left in the first-year class A.

Natsume and Uchiha Itachi.

Naoto Yamanaka is not surprised.

The former is Tsunade's apprentice, and the latter is the son of Uchiha Fugaku.

It can be called blessed.

While their peers were still playing with mud, they were already learning ninjutsu.

"The two of you will fight against each other, and the winner will represent our class and compete with other classes, and the final ten people will have the opportunity to become Orochimaru-sama's apprentices, so come on."

After a few words of encouragement, Naoto Yamanaka retreated to the sidelines and handed over the stage to the two.

A raised platform on the playground.

"Orochimaru-sama, the one on the left is Uchiha Itachi."

Vice Principal Yoshiyuki Nara introduced with a respectful face, "He has a perfect score in both theoretical and practical classes in school, and he deserves to be the first place." ”

Orochimaru licked his lips.

For Natsume saying that Uchiha Itachi can open the kaleidoscope writing wheel, he actually didn't believe it all.

But whether it's true or not, he has to touch it himself, so he must take the Uchiha Itachi.

"What about the other one?" Orochimaru asked casually.

"Natsume, Tsunade-sama's apprentice." Nara Yoshiyuki replied.

Orochimaru became a little interested and asked, "What blood limit does he have?" ”

"Nope. His talent for water escape is not bad. ”

Nara's words immediately dispelled Orochimaru's newly raised interest.

It's not the Blood Inheritance Limit, and it's of no use to him.

Plus it's Tsunade's apprentice, so he doesn't bother to get involved.

While the two men were talking, the battle on the field had begun.

Uchiha Itachi stood in place and threw out six shurikens.

Natsume didn't hesitate to return the salute.

Cracking sound.

The sound of shurikens colliding.

But the next moment, I saw Uchiha Itachi's hands raised slightly, and the six shuriken that should have fallen with all his strength suddenly swirled, and then fell like raindrops.

Natsume's eyes froze.

It was only then that he noticed the presence of a similar steel wire tied to the Uchiha Itachi's fingers.

This is the art of shuriken.

Ordinary shinobi will not.

Instantaneous!

Natsume's body accelerated suddenly, avoiding the range of the shuriken's attack.

However, Uchiha Itachi had already expected that while he was accelerating, the shuriken was also speeding up and turned into a homing bullet.

Water Escape, Water Waves!

Natsume appeared, his hands were sealed, and the chakra gathered in his mouth, almost instantaneously, and a stream of water gushed out.

The onlookers suddenly exclaimed.

In the ninja school, whoever can use the Five Elements Escape Technique is the most beautiful cub.

Uchiha Itachi didn't panic at all, his hands broke off the connection of the shuriken, and then it was also instantly sealed.

Fire Escape: Howe Fireball Technique!

A huge fireball rushed into the water.

Originally, the water escape was to restrain the fire escape.

But the Uchiha Itachi Chakra is far superior to Natsume, and instead evaporates the water flow against the attribute.

"I throw in the towel."

Natsume used the teleportation technique again, appearing on the edge of the circle.

He can't beat Uchiha Itachi now, it's normal.

Plus, he can't use Mu Dun.

"Natsume-san has behaved very well."

Naoto Yamanaka smiled and said, "Let's congratulate Uchiha Itachi-san, who will participate in the next round of battles." ”

While Class A of Year 1 decided the winner, so did the other classes.

Because it is Orochimaru's apprenticeship, it is from the first to the sixth grade to participate.

Under normal circumstances, the lower grades can't beat the upper grades.

But the freak Uchiha Itachi appeared, and he won all the way to the end.

Towards the end of the night, ten men were chosen.

They stood on the high platform, each looking at Orochimaru with excitement in their eyes.

Except for the Uchiha Itachi, he is calmer.

The Uchiha didn't tell him about his attack on Orochimaru, and now he still agrees with Orochimaru.

Uchiha Itachi felt that it was okay to be his apprentice, and he could further learn the Will of Fire.

As the apprentice of the third generation of Hokage Ape Flying Sun, the Will of Fire should be quite powerful, right?

Orochimaru swept over the ten people in front of him, clicked twice quite casually, and said, "Just the two of you." ”

At the same time, Natsume receives a reminder of the Ring of Destiny.

[Because of your actions, Uchiha Itachi's fate has changed, and you gain eighteen fate points. 】

[Because of your actions, the fate of Mao Yue Xiyan has changed, and you have gained forty-nine fate points. 】
