Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 422 The Clown
"Wow~ Is this Sea Mist Castle? It's completely different from the village!"

On the bustling streets of Sea Mist City, Ringo Yuuri looked around excitedly, exclaiming in admiration.

But her appearance like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden made Guideng Manyue beside her shake her head and sigh continuously.

On the other hand, Saigyouji Kabuto, who is the youngest among the three, acts like a little adult at this moment.

He pushed up his glasses and explained in a serious manner.

"As a commercial port city, Sea Mist City has a different positioning from the militarized town in the village."

"Besides, this place was just completed not long ago, the building is newer and the style is more avant-garde. All in all, the feeling is definitely very different."

"And ever since Mr. Tachibana became the Mizukage, his motto has been eh eh eh~"

Just when Dou was about to continue explaining the relationship between urban development and ideology.

Suddenly I realized that my two teammates had run out without me noticing.

".Wait for me!"

Lanzai, who was picking dried fish in front of a store, vaguely heard Dou's shout and looked back in confusion.

But he found that the three little guys who had been following him had all disappeared.

"Quack? O.O?"

"My dear guest, these are 120 taels in total."

The shopkeeper handed a large bag of dried fish that had been weighed to Lan Zai and hesitantly told him the price.

However, Lan Zai looked down at his entire body and saw that he was dressed without even a piece of cloth except for the Mist Hideaway armor.

I don't know how the boss knew that it would bring money when going out?
Lan Zai looked back again, and sure enough, the three little ones were nowhere to be seen. He had no choice but to go back to the 'secret space' to get some money for emergency.

At this moment, Xiaoji, who was following Lanzai, seemed to notice its embarrassment.

As if facing a formidable enemy, he shook his finger with a serious look.

"Abiabiabi! (ー`ー)!"

Then, under the shocked gaze of the shop owner.

Several gold coins fell from the sky and landed on the ground with a ding-dong sound.

The marble floor at the entrance of the store was smashed so hard that it became dented and cracked.

Little Togepi ignored the gravel on the ground, excitedly picked up the gold coins on the ground and handed them to Lanzai.

Finally, the owner of the store handed over the bag of dried fish in his hand in a daze.

He looked at the gold coins in his hand, then at the broken marble floor, and the backs of the frog and the egg gradually moving away.

"This"

Different from Lanzai who was having fun playing with a few little ones in the city.

Although Jianchuan Ju also arrived in Sea Mist City early, he did not choose to go out for a stroll.

Part of the reason was that although Sea Mist City was completely completed and a bit more lively, it was not much different from the last time he came.

Secondly, he came here more to ensure the smooth progress of the exam, and he also had important things to do.

Only then was the task of showing the little ones the world given to Lanzai.

Logically speaking, there is a long gap between the first two and last rounds of the Joint Chunin Exam.

The chiefs of each village, the nobles who came to watch the games, and the daimyo would only come after the last match.

The early exams did not require him, the Mizukage, to show up.

However, since this was the first time that Kirigakure hosted the Joint Chunin Exam, Jianchuan Ju decided to lead the team in person to avoid any accidents during the exam. At this time, he was listening to Harusame's introduction in the exam venue.

“水影大人，目前参与这次考试的忍村已经全部带队抵达了海雾城，包括我们雾隐54人、木叶54人、砂隐42人、雨隐12人.总计10个忍者村，192名考生。”

"According to your request, we have tried to separate accommodations for candidates from different ninja villages before the exam."

"As for the training ground, no ninja village has applied for it yet. We will probably have to wait until the second exam is over before the leaders of the remaining candidates apply to us."

While listening to Chunyu's report, Jianchuan Ju was flipping through the list of candidates taking the exam in his hand.

Jianchuan Ju had no impression of most of the names, and the age of the Genin taking part in the exam was generally young.

I think it is because the war has just ended. During the war, each ninja village basically advanced the graduation age of the ninja school.

Among them, most of the ninjas who graduated early and were sent to the battlefield either died directly on the battlefield due to their mediocre strength, while those who were talented had already been promoted to Chunin.

Therefore, we didn’t see many Genin who had participated in many Chunin exams for thousands of years in this exam.

"Konoha doesn't seem to be doing anything tricky, does it?"

After closing the documents in his hand, Jianchuan Ju actually felt a little relieved.

Although he didn't care much about the ranking of the Kirigakure Genin in this exam, he was really afraid of seeing a name like 'Maruboshi Kosuke' on the list of Konoha candidates.

In that case, he would have to find an opportunity to kill him in private to prevent him from causing trouble during the exam.

"I trust Senior Chun Yu's work. If there is no problem in the classroom, let's go to the island in the second scene to have a look."

Just as Chunyu was about to speak, there was a noise outside, and it seemed as if someone was arguing.

Jianchuan Ju glanced at Chunyu and found that he also didn't know what was going on. So he walked out of the examination room out of curiosity to see who dared to cause trouble here.

But when he came out, he unexpectedly found that there was someone he knew outside the examination room.

"Xiao Nan, are you the one leading the Yuyin team this time?"

Jianchuan Ju's voice of greeting was quite loud, and everyone present turned their eyes over.

But before Xiaonan could open his mouth with a hint of joy on his face, a discordant voice interrupted him.

"Sure enough! I said she must have acquaintances in there! Otherwise why can they enter but we can't!!"

The person who spoke not only had a sharp voice, but also a very arrogant tone, as if he didn't take anyone present seriously.

This made the Water Shadow Jianchuan Ju a little unable to react for a while.

However, when Jianchuan Ju noticed that this man had a forehead protector on his head, he shook his head speechlessly.

However, the person in front of him saw that no one spoke, and seemed to feel that he had hit a sore spot, and his words became even more arrogant.

"There is a secret behind the exam held by you, Kirigakure. I want to expose it."

"Shut up."

Jianchuan Ju would naturally not allow this clown to continue shouting.

His eyes widened slightly, and the two words he spoke lightly were accompanied by an overwhelming mental pressure that instantly pressed down on the person who spoke.

Others only felt a breeze and a slight sense of intimidation, nothing else.

But the man rolled his eyes.

With a "bang", he fell straight to the ground.

After his body twitched slightly a few times, he foamed at the mouth and became motionless.

The three Genin following behind this person were also knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the 'sense of oppression' and sat on the ground, trembling.
