Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 420 Recruiting new people
"Konoha actually agreed? I overestimated them."

Jianchuan Ju held the scroll of Konoha's reply in his hand, shook his head and laughed, then started to make arrangements directly.

"Notify all team leaders to decide whether to submit their registration application as soon as possible."

The Anbu who had been on standby immediately took orders and retreated.

However, after seeing the Anbu retreat, Elder Yuanshi gave a reminder in a low voice.

"Yondaime, do we need to select some younger Chunins and temporarily demote them to participate in the Joint Chunin Exam?"

Upon hearing this, Jianchuan Ju and Qing both looked at Elder Yuanshi in surprise.

But Elder Yuanshi didn't care at all.

"Is it weird?"

"Although we in Kirigakure have never held one ourselves, we have participated in the joint Chunin exams of other villages before, so this is not uncommon."

"Besides, both Konoha and Sunagakure will participate in this exam. If we don't do it, they may not necessarily not do it."

Seeing Elder Yuanshi's matter-of-fact look, Qing felt deeply his own shallowness and asked cautiously.

"But wouldn't it be a bit too obvious to do so?"

However, Elder Yuanshi glanced at Qing, who was surprised by what he had seen, thought for a moment and then began to explain.

"That's why we said we're looking for some younger Chunins. The Joint Chunin Exam is essentially showing the future of the village. The stronger the young ninjas are, the more confident the clients will be in the development of the village. As for whether they are real Genin, it's actually not that important."

"Besides, if a Chunin makes a mistake and is punished, he will be demoted to Genin, and then he can pass the exam and accumulate experience to become a Chunin again. This is within the rules."

"Konoha does this a lot."

Elder Yuanshi obviously didn't think this little action was a problem.

After all, if you just want to promote the ninjas in the village to Chunin, how many can you promote through the Chunin exams once or twice a year? It's not like there is no normal selection mechanism within the village.

The Joint Chunin Exam is essentially a show of muscle.

Since it's all for the sake of face, it's not out of the ordinary to put in a little effort behind the scenes.

After hearing Elder Yuanshi's analysis, Jianchuan Ju's first thought was his own team.

"I am a young ninja, right? If I go there, won't I just kill people randomly?"

However, Jianchuan Ju was just thinking this in his mind.

Not to mention his own water shadow.

Even the information about his former teammates, Mei Terumi and Zabuza, must have been placed in the hands of the top leaders of various forces long ago after he became the Mizukage.

If they could just find a random reason to demote the two of them to Genin and let them take part in the Chunin Exam.

Kirigakure has definitely lost all its face.

Jianchuan Ju had just established a newspaper for the Hidden Mist Village.

I don't want 'Mizukage teammates taking part in the Chunin Exam' to be the cover news for a while.

"Forget it, there's no need to do these crooked things. Just let normal Genin participate and just check the number and strength a little bit."

Elder Yuanshi and Qing nodded upon hearing this and did not pursue the matter further.

Again.

As long as Jianchuanju is still there, no one will underestimate the development potential of Kirigakure.

However, Jianchuan Ju suddenly remembered something and asked Qing.

"It seems that the Chunin application of Honglian's team has not been approved yet?"

Qing was stunned for a moment, but then he immediately realized who Jianchuan Ju was talking about.

After all, bloodline limit is a good memory point, not to mention that there are two bloodline limit ninjas in that team. "Yes, the approval has not been sent out yet."

"However, their team was formed because one of their members died in a previous mission, and the jonin leading the team thought that the remaining two members already had the strength of chunin, so they submitted applications for both of them to become chunin."

"One person missing?"

Jianchuan Ju nodded thoughtfully.

The Joint Chunin Exam does have a requirement of three people per team.

Becoming a Chunin is not just a matter of strength. Intelligence gathering and team coordination are all things that need to be examined, so teammates are an essential part of taking the exam.

Come to think of it, Jianchuan Ju actually has four disciples.

If all of them are to take the exam, it would be just right to assign one person to the Red Lotus Team.

However, after Jianchuan Ju discussed this issue with Elder Yuanshi, they decided not to let Yu Gao participate in this exam.

The identity of a Jinchūriki is still somewhat sensitive.

For this Chunin Exam, Jianchuan Jue is not planning to send a tailed beast Jinchuriki to the examination room as a bomb as he did in the original "Konoha Collapse Plan". There is no need to expose Yugao to the public just because of an exam.

Thinking of this, Jianchuan Ju no longer hesitated.

"Just find a decent Genin to temporarily join the Red Lotus Team. There's still some time before the exams start, so it's enough time for them to get used to each other."

"As for the security personnel during the exam, as well as the examiners of each field, I would like to trouble you, Elder Yuanshi, to draw up a list."

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."

at the same time.

In a dark and hidden cave.

The terrifying and ferocious heretic golem made the entire cave seem extremely crowded and small.

However, if you just look at the two outstretched palms of the heretic demon statue, you can see that a person can stand on the tip of each finger, which shows that this cave is actually not small.

Although the heretic golem has ten fingers, they are not fully occupied at this moment.

There are human figures standing on only seven fingers.

And on each finger where someone is standing, there is a big Chinese character.

They are 'Zero', 'Xuan', 'Yu', 'Kong', 'Bei', 'San' and 'Bai' respectively.

Five of the figures were slightly strange, translucent, colorful shadows.

If Nagato were here at this moment, he would be able to recognize that this is the exclusive secret technique of the Rinnegan, the 'Phantom Body Technique'.

The two people representing 'Zero' and 'Xuan' are not colorful phantoms, but their real bodies are here.

However, the figure codenamed "Zero" was wearing a strange one-eyed mask on his face.

Obviously these two people are Uchiha Obito and Black Zetsu.

After seeing that everyone was present, Uchiha Obito spoke first.

"Bai, Xuan has confirmed the new recruit, and he will be your partner from now on."

After hearing this, the figure called 'Bai' stood there with his arms crossed, not caring at all, and replied in a sullen tone.

"New guy? Doesn't matter. Tell me the position and I'll try him out later."

Judging from her voice, this is obviously a female member. Her words are also a bit casual, and she seems very confident in her own abilities.

However, Uchiha Obito shook his head slightly.

"The newcomer is quite strong and can better restrain your ninjutsu. Bei Hesan's location is not too far from you. This time, the three of you should act together."
