Huang said, emphasizing each word.
He would not deny the mistakes that man had made against the Akatsuki in the past, and the former had paid for his crimes with his life.
However, it is impossible to use this incident to demonstrate any benevolent attitude.
Hearing these words, the psychic Jingfu also let out a sobbing sound in agreement.
During the battle, it tried to use the poison mist against the enemy several times, but its master stopped it each time.
"Alright, let's fight if we want to."
"However, before making a decision, I still suggest that you first learn about the Impure World Reincarnation technique."
"Let's also take a look back at why Hanzo the Salamander was able to hold off the three great powers at his peak."
"Otherwise, if the Land of Rain becomes a dead land, don't blame me."
At the end, his voice became sinister and unusually cold.
There's no need to be nice to someone who's already hostile towards you.
Moreover, Ara did not exaggerate the consequences at all. The Impure World Reincarnation technique combined with Hanzo's poison technique is, in a sense, unsolvable!
Otherwise, Pain could kill him in one fell swoop and thus directly undo this terrifying secret technique.
Throughout this time, the Heavenly Dao remained silent, while Nagato, standing behind the scenes, had clearly already guessed something.
That black and red giant, coupled with Hanzo's bizarre poison techniques and his exposed trump card...
Suddenly he realized that he had underestimated the other person.
The Land of Rain is not suitable to be the main battlefield for such a duel.
"Your ultimate goal for this Chunin Exams is Konoha, isn't it?"
"The Land of Hot Water's reserve forces must have been prepared for this, right?"
“We can cooperate on this matter.”
"Let's make the perpetrators feel pain together."
After a moment of silence, Heaven took the initiative to change the subject.
At the same time, he no longer mentioned inviting the other party to join the Akatsuki organization, because Uchiha Ara, who possessed the powerful force of the Land of Hot Water, was already on par with the Akatsuki organization.
Even surpassing it!
Even though Nagato really didn't want to admit it.
"can."
"Give Itachi to me."
Ara made the same demands as Orochimaru, but was met with silence in return.
In this matter, Nagato remained true to his principles.
Seeing this, Huang said nothing more.
After all, the Akatsuki organization wasn't originally part of his plan.
However, as he led the salamander past the Heavenly Dao, he couldn't suppress a certain emotion within him and abruptly spoke:
"Three months ago, you saw the treasure of the Snow Kingdom."
"So, what is the treasure of the Rain Kingdom?"
However, he didn't seem to expect an answer from the other party, and went on to say:
"A demigod who once stood against three great nations should be considered one."
"The dawn that once rose like the morning sun should also be considered one of them."
"But now, is it a mercenary organization that shelters a bunch of vicious people? Or is it this incessant rain?"
Chapter 505 Battle Update: You'll never see the sun rise tomorrow.
Orochimaru's brief appearance did not seem to have a significant impact on the Chunin Exams jointly held by Konoha and Sunagakure.
Apart from the Kusagakure genin squad that suffered an undeserved calamity and died, that guy's appearance did not cause the deaths of any other contestants.
After learning that the perpetrator was Orochimaru, whom the entire ninja world condemned, the Hidden Grass Village unexpectedly remained silent and did not continue to press the issue.
They simply entrusted the entire matter to Konoha.
The leader of this force clearly understood that if he continued to make trouble in this matter and became the first to speak out, there was no guarantee that the dangerous person would not come knocking on his door.
At that time, their own situation will be in a bad way.
After all, it's rumored that guy possesses the terrifying power to wipe out a small country in a single night!
Therefore, the loss of a genin squad is acceptable, and we cannot allow it to escalate further.
As for Sasuke Uchiha, who had been cursed by Orochimaru, he was taken away by Kakashi Hatake immediately after the assessment. Without a direct guardian, there was naturally no one to speak up for him.
The discussion within Konoha shifted after the second trial ended, focusing on who would be the final victor.
Everything seemed to have returned to normal and was back on track.
However, only those involved in this game truly understand that the current peace is merely superficial, and a greater danger is brewing!
Ultimately, twelve genin made it to the third round of the Chunin Exams.
One of them was a ninja from the Sound Village, and he was also the only ninja from a small country to advance in this Chunin Exam.
The three from Sunagakure are interesting because they are all descendants of the Fourth Kazekage.
The last eight ninjas were all from Konoha.
Such an overwhelming number of promotions filled the hearts of Konoha's ninjas and civilians with pride and self-esteem.
However, this does not mean that Konoha has secured the final victory.
Since the final assessment is a draw-based individual battle, even if four ninjas from other villages are matched against participants from Konoha, four Konoha genin will still be "clash" and get caught up in internal fighting.
Of course, the final matchup order and matchup list have already been sent to various countries and forces of all sizes by the well-trained Ninja Hawks.
The next step was a month-long preparation period.
This is not only to give the contestants, who have undergone five days of rigorous training, a chance to rest, buffer, and analyze their opponents' abilities and devise their final battle strategy, but also to give the wealthy and powerful businessmen and ninja leaders who are about to come to Konoha to observe the event time.
The much-anticipated draw resulted in three smaller battle zones: A, B, and C, with each zone having a total of four matches.
The competition is a single-elimination format. The winners will advance to the next round in the smaller division, and the final winners will be drawn again to enter the final match.
The match list is:
Area A
First match: Uchiha Izumi vs. Hyuga Neji;
Second match: Kurama Yakumo vs. Temari;
Area B,
Third match: Uchiha Ara vs. Uzumaki Naruto;
Fourth match: Uchiha Sasuke vs. Gaara;
Area C
Match 5: Shino Arie vs. Kankuro;
Match 6: Nara Shikamaru vs. Tosu Kinuchi.
Besides this battle schedule circulating widely in Konoha, another rumor about the trial also spread.
It is said that the Uchiha Ara squad, which successfully advanced to the third trial, did not actually participate in the second trial. Instead, they used some special means to make the Third Hokage compromise, thus allowing them to pass the trial directly.
The message appears to have originated from a participant from Sunagakure who publicly protested this injustice at the beginning of the trial, but to no avail. He could only make a tough promise to meet again in the finals.
The ninja from Sunagakure was named Gaara. He was the strongest young ninja in the village at that time, and his team was the first to pass the second round of assessments.
The time taken to complete the challenge was far ahead of other participants in the same year.
This news immediately aroused indignation and shame among some uninformed people within Konoha Village.
This ruined most of their good mood because their own ninjas made up the majority of the finalists.
After all, how will the other observers view them for such a shameful act of using connections?
As a ninja, one should strive to win a spot in the competition fairly and squarely, instead of being afraid of failure and losing face, resorting to such a petty trick to get in through back channels!
As time went on, such public opinion became increasingly fierce. Not only was Uchiha Arashi caught in the eye of the storm, but even Uchiha Izumi and Kurama Yakumo, who were in the same squad, were also subject to some discussion.
Amidst the swirling discussions, no high-ranking officials from Konoha offered any explanation, seemingly adopting a completely laissez-faire attitude.
As for the secrets about the Third Hokage's past that also occurred during the second trial, not a single word of them leaked out.
"Gaara, look and listen! This is all the good thing that happened because you disobeyed orders!"
Hearing the rumors coming from the outside world, Maki, who was in charge of Sunagakure this time, was very angry.
He was worried that such negative public opinion, along with his son's arrogant provocation that day, would displease that person.
This would also lower the image of Sunagakure in the eyes of the other party.
Of course, this is just speculation.
After all, his gesture of goodwill that day was obvious enough, and someone who could sit as the head of a clan must have his own judgment.
"Ha, in the final match, I will kill his people first."
"Then, kill him."
Gaara completely ignored the reprimand, his arms crossed over his chest, exuding an air of self-will.
Upon hearing this, not only did Maki's expression change drastically, but even Kankuro and Temari on the side could not ignore such a declaration.
Because this is something that is entirely possible to implement!
The rules for this final assessment are very simple: it's a simple group qualifying round.
The third and fourth matches were placed in the same group.
To put it simply, regardless of whether Ara Uchiha or Naruto Uzumaki wins the third match, they will ultimately have to face Gaara first in order to advance to the final round.
