Saiyans in the Naruto world

Orochimaru said with a playful expression.

Some of the lower-ranking ninjas trembled, their expressions tense, and their faces showed fear.

"Lord Orochimaru, this could be fatal."

One of the braver genin spoke up.

"On the path of a ninja, no one knows when death will come. Now I'm giving you a chance. Those who don't want to take the test can withdraw."

Orochimaru spoke.

Some ninjas, fearing the threat of death, raised their hands and abstained.

As Karot looked at the three giant snakes that had appeared, his mind raced, imagining steaming one, braising another, and grilling the third. Drooling dripped from his mouth. Kakashi, standing beside Karot, saw Karot drooling and staring intently at the snakes, completely understanding his brother's thoughts. He then subtly moved away from Karot, whom he found embarrassing.

"Hey, Kakashi, come here."

After Karot came to his senses, he saw that his younger brother Kakashi was getting further and further away from him, so he hurriedly called out to him to stop.

Orochimaru summoned a giant snake, and Karot was not comfortable letting Kakashi act alone.

He didn't know how Kakashi passed the Chunin Exams in the original story, but now that he was here, he couldn't allow any surprises to happen.

"cut."

Kakashi ignored Carrot's words and continued to disregard him.

Since the mountain won't come to me, then I'll go to the mountain.

Meanwhile, in the Hokage Building, the strongest voyeur of the world, Hokage Haruhi Suzumiya, was watching the second exam through a glass sphere.

Standing nearby were Jiraiya, one of the "Legendary Sannin"; Minato Namikaze, Jiraiya's disciple and future "Fourth Hokage"; Sakumo Hatake, the protagonist's father and "White Fang of Konoha"; and Danzo, the "Darkness of the Shinobi World." The five of them were making quite a scene, surrounding the broken glass ball.

"Orochimaru, isn't this going a bit too far?"

As Hiruzen's apprentice, the usually carefree Jiraiya spoke up.

"I think this is a very good method. Ninjas are supposed to be a system where the capable rise to the top and the weak are eliminated. Now, if you quit, you can still live."

Danzo expressed a different view from Jiraiya's; he was here today to observe for promising talents to recruit into Root. His old rival, Hara Hitoshi, had the "Three Legendary Sannin," and he wanted the same.

"I agree with Lord Danzo's words."

Hatake Sakumo's rare alignment with Danzo's views caught Hiruzen Yuan's attention. Seeing Hiruzen Yuan's gaze, Hatake Sakumo shared his thoughts.

"The situation in the ninja world is unstable right now, and we don't know when the war will start again. If we send these ninjas who are not mentally prepared to the battlefield, it would be sending them to their deaths."

Although both of his sons were in the assessment, he believed the assessment was done correctly.

"Minato, what do you think?"

Minato hadn't expected Hiruzen Sarutobi to ask him a question. He was only able to attend this meeting because of Jiraiya.

The four people present were waiting for Minato's answer. This was a test. Minato had great potential and had also learned the ninjutsu "Flying Thunder God" developed by the Second Hokage. His future achievements were limitless. Therefore, the other three were also willing to listen to the young man's opinion.

Chapter 17 Encounter

Minato thought for a moment and then said.

"Although Lord Orochimaru's actions were somewhat excessive, they were not without reason."

"Compared to the perilous battlefield, now that we only need to guard against three giant snakes, the difficulty has been reduced."

"Yes, Not Bad."

Hiruzen nodded in acknowledgment. Overall, Hiruzen was satisfied with his beloved disciple's methods; ninjas weren't just casual dinners, they were life-or-death situations.

"Lord Sakumo, aren't you worried about your son?"

Jiraiya was somewhat curious, after all, Orochi's strength was undeniable.

"I believe in their abilities."

Sakumo Hatake's face was full of confidence.

“Especially Carrot, even I have to take his strength seriously.”

When talking about his son, Hatake Sakumo becomes a chatterbox, always praising his child.

"What? Lord Sakumo, you're not joking, are you?"

Jiraiya asked incredulously. Although rumors of the "Konoha Twins" had been circulating in the village recently, he hadn't paid much attention to them. After all, even the most talented person couldn't be that strong. But now that Sakumo Hatake said that he needed to take one of them seriously, it was like a bomb exploding in still water.

In the office, all four of them cast questioning and inquiring glances at Sakumo Hatake.

However, Sakumo Hatake did not offer much explanation for the stares of the crowd.

"You'll see later how terrifying that child's talent is. His future achievements will far surpass mine. He'll become someone like the First Hokage."

"Hahaha, Lord Sakumo, you're exaggerating."

Konoha has produced many geniuses, but none of them claim to have the potential of the First Hokage. Otherwise, Hashirama Senju wouldn't have been revered as the "God of Shinobi," a title only gods could attain.

"Then just wait and see, he will amaze you."

Sakumo Hatake said confidently.

At the edge of the Forest of Death, the second Chunin Exams began. Upon receiving the order to start the exam, the genin participating in the exam rushed towards the opened gates of the Forest of Death like madmen.

Many people were simply hoping to run fast enough to secure a spot in the top ten. Some even formed teams, since the genin who came to participate in the Chunin Exams all came in groups. However, these teams were very unreliable because it was difficult to maintain unity.

Kakashi stood out among the many genin with his excellent agility, and he also used his actions to refuse Karot's help, proving that he could clear the level on his own.

"What an unlovable younger brother."

Seeing Kakashi's choice, Carrot didn't press the matter further, because he understood how strong Kakashi's pride was.

Just as Carrot,

As he leisurely wandered through the Forest of Death, a kunai and several shuriken shot towards Carrot from the bushes. Carrot dodged the shuriken and, without flinching, caught them steadily between two fingers.

"Come out! Stop hiding."

With Carrot's perception, he already knew someone was lying in ambush on his way here. If the other party didn't attack him, he wouldn't make a move either. After all, the opponent was too weak, and he didn't even have the desire to fight. In the Forest of Death, only Orochimaru could make him want to fight.

"Not bad, you managed to dodge our attacks."

Three ninjas emerged from the bushes; their attire clearly identified them as members of the Uchiha clan.

"Do we have a grudge?"

"No."

"Have we had a grudge?"

"nor."

The leader of the Uchiha clan answered.

"We have no grudge against you, so why are you blocking my way?"

"You really don't remember?"

"Why don't you help me remember?"

Carrot looked puzzled.

The leader of the Uchiha clan was furious when he saw Karot looking completely bewildered.

He said through gritted teeth.

"You remember the graduation exam, right? The guy you beat was my brother."

"Oh, I forgot. Defeated opponents aren't worth remembering."

"Damn it, I will defeat you and wash away my brother's shame."

"Really? Even your brother isn't a match for me, so what makes you think you can defeat me?"

After saying that, Karot beckoned to the other party with his finger, which immediately made the Uchiha present feel insulted, an insult that was not concealed.

Enraged, the three Uchiha charged towards Karot. Once in battle, the Uchiha clearly divided their roles: one provided ranged support, while the other two launched the main attacks. The Uchiha clan's combat prowess was on full display at this moment. Three pairs of Sharingan eyes represented the strength of the Uchiha before them.

A ranged attacker launched a shuriken to draw Carrot's attention, while another Uchiha threw a punch at Carrot, which Carrot dodged by dodging to the side. There was also a slide tackle, and Carrot lightly leaped onto a tree branch.

Carrot looked down at the Uchiha below, emanating a dangerous aura.

"You worked together well. But now it's my turn."

After Carrot finished speaking, his body vanished instantly.

"No good. Everyone's too small."

Before the Uchiha leader could finish speaking, Karot tightly gripped his neck.

"Let him go."

As they were talking, an Uchiha formed hand seals, preparing to unleash a ninjutsu to threaten Karot.

"Okay."

After saying that, Carrot released the Uchiha who had been strangled unconscious.

Seeing Karot release his comrade, the Uchiha, who had formed hand seals, unleashed a ninjutsu at Karot.
