Chapter 34
Just like the original novel, the first round of the Chunin Exam is still a written test. The questions given are very difficult. Those who have not studied them specially can hardly do them. Of course, these questions are not difficult for Naruto and Sakura.
The math questions in the test paper, such as parabolic functions, are also not difficult for Sasuke. This kind of question is really child's play for him. Even after reading the question, Sasuke can almost subconsciously calculate the final answer.
Of course, it is a written test on the surface, but it is actually to test the intelligence gathering ability of the candidates, because Morino Ibiki specially arranged two Chunins who knew the answer to mix in with the candidates to take the written test.
As long as the candidates' cheating methods are clever and not discovered by the invigilator, they can copy the correct answers from the test papers of the two Chunins and avoid being expelled by the invigilator.
Of course, these are just appetizers, or optional questions. Only by completing the final test questions can you pass the first round of the Chunin Exam and be eligible for the second round of assessment.
Because the written test takes one hour, the nine questions on the test paper need to be answered in the first 45 minutes. Naruto finished all of them in just three minutes, then turned the test paper upside down on the table, and then fell asleep on the table.
Sasuke, who was sitting two rows behind Naruto, saw Naruto's actions, so he finished the questions he could do and also lay on the table.
Morino Ibiki saw the actions of Naruto and Sasuke and couldn't help but feel a little confused. If his eyes were not blurry just now, Uzumaki Naruto's test paper should have been filled in, right? Could he do all these questions? Could he have just written them randomly and given up on himself?
And that Uchiha Sasuke, why not learn from anyone else, but he also wrote randomly, and fell asleep on the table without caring about anything. It's really like the ink around you is black. However, because the two did not violate the rules of the examination room, Morino Ibiki had no right to blame them, so he no longer paid attention to Naruto and Sasuke, and turned his attention to other candidates.
During this period, there were many candidates who cheated in a clumsy way. After being discovered several times, they were directly expelled from the examination room. Some people dared to resist and were directly beaten out by a group of invigilating ninjas.
Sasuke, who was lying on the desk with his eyes closed, suddenly felt a very familiar breath caressing his nerves, and immediately relaxed his mind. The next moment, he came to Naruto's illusion space.
Hinata also came in. After the three met, Naruto directly pointed out the current situation and told Sasuke and Hinata that the current test paper was not important at all.
Then he reminded Sasuke that if Morino Ibiki gave the last question, he must always observe Morino Ibiki's mouth shape. As long as he dared to say that all the candidates present failed, he must open the Sharingan before he finished speaking, and cast an illusion on him to force him to say that we passed the test.
Sasuke nodded solemnly to let Naruto rest assured that as long as Morino Ibiki's mouth shape dared to show half of the word"no", he would dare to cast an illusion instantly and let Morino Ibiki taste the power of his Sharingan illusion.
Then the three of them practiced for a few hours and finally exited the illusion space.
At this time, the exam time had just passed half an hour. When everyone finally reached 45 minutes, Morino Ibiki asked the remaining candidates to stop writing.
Just like the original work, the candidates present were asked to make a choice, whether to stay here to take the final test, or to give up now and wait until next year to take the Chunin exam.
If they do not give up, if they get the last test wrong, they will lose the right to be promoted to Chunin for life and can only be Genin for life.
At this point, some candidates could not withstand the psychological pressure and left sadly. In fact, these were just Morino Ibiki's bad taste. He liked to use this torture-style method to test these Genin.
However, his words still had loopholes, because he was only an examiner of Konoha, and he could only decide the future of Konoha candidates. As for the Genin of other ninja villages, except for the Sand Village of Wind Country, which is one of the five major countries, the ninja villages of other small countries also have the right to improve the status of their own ninjas.
Therefore, Morino Ibiki's words only eliminated many Konoha candidates. On the contrary, except for those who were forced to disqualify because of cheating, almost no candidates from other villages left the venue. After confirming that no one would leave, Morino Ibiki finally gave the candidates questions.
At this moment, Sasuke stared at Morino Ibiki. As long as his lip shape was wrong, he could cast an illusion instantly.
However, Naruto did not disrupt the situation at the beginning of this time like in the original work, and the remaining candidates were three or five groups less than in the original work, but that was also within Morino Ibiki's expectations.
In the end, Morino Ibiki said that all the candidates present had passed the exam, and Sasuke's blood-red Sharingan was rotating with black magatama, and it was silent for a moment.
When Morino Ibiki announced that all the candidates present had passed, a black shadow broke through the window, and then a huge curtain was fixed on the ceiling. Mitarashi Anko, wearing a brown cloak, appeared on the stage.
Mitarashi Anko showed up in a way similar to Might Guy, but instead of getting everyone to cheer, she made the whole audience feel awkward.
Mitarashi Anko announced that she would be the examiner for the second round of the exam, looked at the candidates present, and complained that Morino Ibiki was not ruthless enough, and that there were too many candidates this year.
She also said to herself that she would just eliminate more than half of the candidates for the next exam, and then notified all the candidates to gather at the designated location at noon tomorrow, and then waved her hand and left the exam room.
……
At noon the next day, all the candidates who passed the exam yesterday came to the designated gathering point.
Just when Naruto and the others arrived at the gathering point, Sasuke suddenly felt a very cold gaze staring at him in the dark. He felt something in his heart, so he immediately turned around and found the source of the cold breath.
Judging from the forehead protector, she should be a ninja from the Grass Country of Grass. From the outside, she looks like an adult woman, but the cold and greedy eyes can't escape Sasuke's eyes.
At this time, Orochimaru, who used the technique of erasing face to disguise himself as a female Grass Ninja, met Sasuke's gaze, and his heart was even more happy:"Hahahaha, what a sharp intuition, and you easily discovered my existence, Uchiha Sasuke, I am so satisfied with you!"
Sasuke frowned, turned around and said to Naruto:"That person makes me feel a little disgusting, anyway, something is wrong." Naruto was refreshed when he heard it, turned around and looked in the direction indicated by Sasuke, and saw the woman's outfit, with a thick purple hemp rope around her waist, which was extremely typical of Orochimaru's style.
Naruto was happy. He didn't expect to meet Orochimaru here. However, this guy's intentions were too obvious and too greedy. If he really dared to cause trouble for Sasuke, he would definitely be surprised.
"Na Luduo, I saw that woman in the examination room yesterday. She didn't have the disgusting feeling she has now. Besides, I always feel that the woman seems to have some strength."Sasuke said solemnly in a low voice. Naruto waved his hand:"It's okay, it's okay. No matter who comes, we will not be afraid of him. What's the matter? Don't you have confidence in yourself?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes at Naruto:"Tsk, I have confidence in beating anyone except you!"
After that, Mitarashi Anko made a brilliant appearance again.
She had been waiting for a long time, and directly explained the content of the next test. They will survive in the"Death Forest" examination room in the next five days. Each ninja team carries a scroll. The scrolls are divided into two types, one is the scroll of heaven and the other is the scroll of earth.
The two scrolls are equal in number. Within five days, each ninja team must collect the two scrolls and then meet at the central tower of the Death Forest to pass the test. Of course, those who have collected the two scrolls in advance can go directly to the central tower.
Then they were asked to sign a life and death agreement, because this kind of assessment will inevitably lead to fighting and death. If you don't want to sign the life and death agreement, you should withdraw from the assessment as soon as possible.
In addition, the examiners also took special concealment measures for them to ensure that they did not know what the scrolls of other teams were and which team members they put them on.
Everyone took the life and death contract and read the contents carefully. Some people went to prepare supplies, because they had to survive in the Death Forest for five days, and the examiners agreed to prepare various supplies.
As for Naruto, he got some spices and seasonings. After all, with their strength, this kind of assessment is also quite fun. There are many wild beasts in the Death Forest, and barbecued game is also indispensable.
Then, Naruto also called all his classmates, that is, the ninja team of Ino, Deer, Chou and Hinata.
Tell them that after entering the Death Forest, they must meet up with them as soon as possible, and everyone should rush to the central tower as soon as possible. He will deliberately create a movement to lead the opponent away and create space for them to rush.
Because everyone has a good relationship and trusts each other, but except Sasuke and Hinata Sakura, the rest are more I am more worried that Naruto's actions will make others besiege Naruto and his team. Wouldn't Naruto and his team be miserable then?
Naruto and Sasuke said that they didn't care about this. They were very confident to deal with any other opponents.
Then, at two o'clock in the afternoon, Mitarashi Anko asked the candidates to sign a life and death agreement and receive the scrolls of their respective teams.
When it was Naruto's turn, after receiving the scrolls, Naruto took out the scrolls in public and shouted:"My little master is holding the scroll of heaven, and this scroll will always be with me for the next five days. If you want it, come and die!"
This shout directly provoked almost everyone present, of course, except Shikamaru and Hinata. Orochimaru, who was spying on Sasuke not far away, looked at the arrogant Naruto and couldn't help laughing:"This kid, I didn't expect it to be so interesting. Uzumaki Naruto, the child of Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina, seems to have grown up a lot."
