Becoming a Ninja from Naruto

Chapter 146 Chunin Examination
Nagato had no idea that he was the center of the storm.

Even when Nagato was taking part in the Chunin Exam, he was still somewhat curious about Uzumaki Naruto, Jiraiya's disciple, and wanted to know what kind of person Uzumaki Naruto was.

but…

They met soon.

The only thing that Nagato didn't expect was that the chief examiner of this Chunin Exam was actually his teacher Jiraiya.

Since Jiraiya had been out looking for Orochimaru during this period but failed, he had to rush back to Konoha before the Chunin Exam. As a result, he was entrusted by Sarutobi Hiruzen to preside over the Chunin Exam right after he returned.

Obviously.

This delegation has some other implications.

This Chunin Exam involved all of Konoha's allies and was of great significance. Jiraiya was put in charge of presiding over the entire Chunin Exam, on the one hand to intimidate these allies, and on the other hand to place high hopes on his disciple Jiraiya.

such as…

The candidate for Konoha's Fifth Hokage.

Although Jiraiya expressed his opposition and even suggested asking Tsunade for help, Tsunade had no intention of taking on such a difficult matter.

“What a hassle…”

Jiraiya sat in the seat of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, looking at a bunch of examiners who had already been selected. He was just there to put his name on the list.

However, after Jiraiya reviewed the list of all the Genin who took the test, he couldn't help scratching his head, as if he was more than just a title.

because…

There are quite a lot of Genin participating in the exam.

The ninjas of the Sand Village, including the three children of the Fourth Kazekage.

There were also many ninjas from Konoha Village participating. The new generation of Genin took part in the exam collectively, including Team 7, which was where his most valued disciple Uzumaki Naruto was, Team 10, which was where the Ino, Shika and Chou clans were, and Team 8, which was where Hinata Hyuga, the daughter of the Hyuga clan leader, Inuzuka Kiba of the Inuzuka clan, and Shino Aburame, the son of the Aburame clan leader, were.

and also…

The third class that I missed last time.

All of Konoha's most talented new generation ninjas took part in this exam.

In addition, there are some small and medium-sized ninja villages such as the Hidden Rain Village, the Hidden Grass Village, the Hidden Taki Village, etc. that came from afar. These small villages can almost be ignored because these small villages rarely produce outstanding talents.

"It looks like this exam is going to be interesting."

Jiraiya looked through the examination process and all the examiners of the Chunin Examination, and was barely familiar with his next task.

however…

When the first written test started...

Jiraiya noticed that something familiar appeared at the examination site.

even…

It was still a small village that he had ignored.

The first written test tested the ninjas' ability to collect intelligence. The examiner of the first test, Morino Ibiki, chose an extremely difficult test paper in order to force all candidates to cheat. Their cheating ability was equivalent to their ability to collect and transmit intelligence.

This is really...

It makes people interested.

The Hyuga clan's bloodline limit, the Byakugan, allows for clairvoyance and spying; the Uchiha clan's bloodline limit, the Sharingan, allows for motion replication; the Sand Eyes used by the Sand Manipulator...

but…

None of these are rare.

Jiraiya has seen too much of the world.

However, when he saw a masked Amegakure ninja using origami to transmit information, he couldn't help but feel a little disturbed, which reminded him of a dead disciple.

pity…

That's all in the past.

After the first, which can be considered gentle, written test is over, the second, truly cruel test begins immediately. This test will be the beginning of real death.

The second exam will test the Genin's ability to coordinate combat, their ability to survive in the wild, and their willpower in the face of adversity.

The examiner of the second exam, Anko Mitarashi, distributed two scrolls, Heaven and Earth, to each team of Genin, forcing them to fight in the Forest of Death to snatch different scrolls and then pass the finish line with different scrolls.

To be frank…

The second exam may be the only exam in which there is a death.

Beyond the Forest of Death.

Class 7 was still watching their opponents curiously.

Uzumaki Naruto looked around in surprise, trying to find different characters among them, but with his eyesight he could not see the hidden characters.

"That little guy..."

"That's Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

Konan had been keeping an eye on Uzumaki Naruto and reminded Nagato in a deep voice, "He is also Jiraiya-sensei's new disciple. Lord Emiya also asked us to protect him."

"Looks like..."

There was a hint of confusion on Nagato's face.

Because he had been observing Uzumaki Naruto since the first exam.

how to say?

This little guy seems a little stupid?
At least in this respect, he really looks like their teacher Jiraiya. After all...

Sensei Jiraiya is also a bit stupid.

Ok…

More than a little.

Tiandao Pain looked around and said calmly: "Then after the game starts, we should search for their traces first..."

"lest…"

"Something went wrong."

After Tendo Pain finished speaking, he looked at a piece of paper in his hand. On the paper was the consent form provided by Konoha to them, the candidates.

Once you sign the consent form...

This means that these candidates will accept the outcome of their death in the exam.

of course.

The Nagato trio certainly don't need to worry about this problem.

Because in the entire Chunin Exam examination hall and even in the entire Konoha, there might not be anyone who could defeat them. Even using the term "newbie village fish fry" to describe their behavior in participating in the Chunin Exam seemed a bit too low-key.

but…

It is difficult for outstanding people to hide.

Even though Nagato and Pain did not choose to use the Rinnegan, and even only used the most basic physical and ninjutsu, their performances easily stood out.

Inside the examiner's room.

Jiraiya's expression turned a little serious.

The team from the Hidden Rain Village performed very well indeed. No matter how they tried to hide their maturity, they still stood out among a group of naive Genin.

“This team has done a good job.”

Jiraiya looked at the screen on the monitor and praised the other party in a deep voice: "Whether it is the advanced perception ability of their team before the battle, or the fierceness they showed during the battle, it is not something that an ordinary team of Genin can do..."

"even…"

Jiraiya looked at all the jonin present and added: "Many jonin performed worse than them."

"indeed."

Asuma Sarutobi nodded, blowing out a cloud of smoke from the cigarette in his mouth: "The Hidden Rain Village really sent a group of powerful guys this time. Are you determined to win the prize?"

"indeed."

Hatake Kakashi was also very knowledgeable. He stared at the three-man battle on the monitor and said softly, "They are more confident than the Sand Village team. They are even sure that their enemies can never be their opponents..."

"Every time..."

Kurenai Yuhi stood beside Asuma Sarutobi, with a look of worry on her face: "This team will only send one person to take charge..."

"As long as one person takes action..."

“The other two will just sit back and watch.”

This means that they can be sure that their teammates can solve the problem without wasting any extra chakra.

"It looks like these little guys are about to meet their match!"

Jiraiya touched his chin and looked at another picture on the monitor. The picture showed Uchiha Sasuke using Fire Release Ninjutsu to easily defeat a team of Amegakure Ninjas.

only…

This fire escape ninjutsu is too powerful...

It also resulted in the forest's surveillance cameras being destroyed in one move.

"Unlikely opponent..."

Might Guy's expression became a little serious, still staring at the Nagato trio. His combat instincts were always very sharp, so much so that his forehead began to tense up a little: "Although I have confidence in Li and the others, but..."

gap…

Some are too big.

Might Guy can say that his subordinates Rock Lee and Neji Hyuga have no pressure in dealing with other geniuses, even including the red-haired monster genius who controls the sand in the Sand Village.

but…

This does not include the Rain Hidden Team.

Because Might Guy saw a hint of danger in them.

Dangerous means...

This means that once he fights with the opponent, he will have to risk his life.

"Nagato and the others..."

"It seems to be a little too good."

Emiya Shihara has been observing the Chunin Exam the entire time, and he has also noticed the problems with Nagato and the others: "It may attract a lot of attention in Konoha."

"Speaking of which..."

"What names did the three of them use to take the exam?"
