Naruto: I Roamed the Ninja World as a Woman

Chapter 109 Their respective rivals

The third round of exams will begin in ten days.

The competition will proceed in a single-elimination format, with rounds of 16 to 8 and then 8 to 4, to determine the final winner.

The match order for the first round of elimination will not be revealed after the opening ceremony, but will be given in advance at the end of the second round of the exam!

The reason for doing this is quite simple.

First, during these ten days of preparation, candidates can use the information they have gathered about their opponents to conduct targeted intensive training in a specific area.

Secondly, Konoha can use the match list as a gimmick to promote the match and attract more viewers!

That's right.

The third round of the Chunin Exams is an open-ended battle.

Starting from the round of 16 to 8, each round of the competition will not only have instructors from various ninja villages watching, but also a large number of nobles who will buy tickets to enter!

Konoha has specially launched various levels of spectator seats.

From the center line of the main grandstand with the best view, to the sides of the main grandstand and the upper level of the side wings with slightly different views, each seat has a different price.

They even set up VIP boxes specifically for the daimyo of various countries and their vassals!

From a certain perspective, the guy in charge of the Chunin Exams on the Konoha side is quite talented.

They managed to create a commercial atmosphere and entertainment value in this arms race.

As long as you come to Konoha and have some spare money.

Who could resist such a grand event as "cricket fighting in the ninja village"?

Ayane Amamiya lowered her gaze to the ground in front of her.

She felt no fear whatsoever.

After all, as long as the goal is to win, the time for a confrontation with Minato Namikaze is only a matter of sooner or later.

The girl really didn't expect that Konoha would put this battle so early!

Is this a fortune telling or a lottery?

Still no signature?

From any perspective, it seems that Konoha has complete confidence in Minato Namikaze's strength!

Were I underestimated?

She gripped the ninja sword in one hand, holding the Storm Cutter horizontally, the blade level with her amber eyes.

A thin layer of misty water stains quickly appeared on the patterns on the blade, beneath which faint blue lightning flashed.

Flying Thunder God~ I can't wait to hear it!

A rare sense of anticipation welled up within her.

The emotions involved were complex, including a strong fighting spirit towards Minato Namikaze, a genius character vividly portrayed in the original work, as well as anticipation of earning achievement points by grinding for titles and upgrading the red attribute "Uzumaki Bloodline".

Finally, there are some lingering, unspoken longings.

Once the Chunin Exams are over, I'll be able to return to Amegakure, right?

Judging by the time, it's been almost two months since I left the village.

This was probably the longest business trip I've ever taken since graduating.

I wonder how my friends in Amegakure are doing now?

The girl murmured to herself, then suppressed the longing between her brows and carefully sheathed the Storm Slayer.

"This is troublesome."

Upon hearing his opponent's name, Minato Namikaze immediately had this thought in his mind.

If he could choose his opponent in this round of 16, Minato would definitely eliminate Ayane Amamiya first!

In the previous melee at the tower.

The other party's calm and composed demeanor as a powerful figure was truly exceptional and left a deep impression on him.

Even the usually well-coordinated Ino-Shika-Cho trio was eliminated early by the opposing team.

No matter how you look at it.

The opponents were all among the strongest of the sixteen people present!

Minato Namikaze gently tossed the kunai in his hand into the air, watching the arc it left in the air.

Although the enemy is very strong...

But I also carry many burdens on my shoulders!

Whether it's the Hokage, Jiraiya, or the eliminated Yoshimaru, Shinya, and Kushina Uzumaki.

They're all looking at me!

"There's another reason why I can't afford to lose this battle!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly grabbed the falling kunai again, a determined look on his face!

The boy's gaze naturally drifted toward Kushina Uzumaki.

Then, he heard the sound that broke his heart.

"What are you looking at?"

Kushina Uzumaki stood with her hands on her hips, meeting his gaze: "If you want to fight me, you don't have to wait ten days, you can do it now!"

Minato Namikaze:

""

Hey!

He touched his hair with a hint of helplessness.

When will my image in Kushina's mind improve?

In the round of 16 to 8.

Besides the fierce battles between Ayane Amamiya and Sasori, several other matchups have also garnered significant attention.

Hinata Hizashi vs Uchiha Mikoto!

This is a duel between the two great eye techniques of Konoha Village.

If we disregard actual performance and only consider the reputation of the opponents, this is undoubtedly the most eye-catching match in the round of 16!

Matt Day vs. Ringo Yuri!

This is the biggest age gap matchup ever.

On one side is a 30-something-year-old genin, and on the other side is a little girl who is less than 1.4 meters tall, but neither side seems to be afraid of the other.

It can only be said that there is indeed a predestined connection between Kirigakure and Might Guy!

Needless to say, Matt Day was already howling about youth and burning with incomprehensible words, attracting frequent glances from everyone.

On Amegakure's side, Mei Terumi, who had learned her lesson, grabbed her companion's arm, about to give him some advice.

To everyone's surprise, Ringo Ameyuri excitedly volunteered, "If the opponent is that guy with the thick eyebrows, Teacher will definitely lend me the Raito Kiba!"

Mei Terumi paused, somewhat surprised: "You can already wield the Thunder Blade?"

The Seven Ninja Swords of Kirigakure are not something anyone can wield.

Not to mention Samehada, a ninja sword with its own consciousness.

Even the most ordinary-looking decapitation sword requires extremely high skill from its user.

Ringo Ameyuri didn't answer, but looked at the bruises on her face and said, "By the way! Captain, when you go back later, don't cover your face!"

'

""

Several speechless black lines appeared on Mei Terumi's forehead.

Do you know how much it hurts a lady to have a shoe print on her face?

But Ringo Ameyuri continued her rambling: "Captain, the more miserable you look, the more it proves that guy with the thick eyebrows is strong, and the more likely the teacher will agree to lend me the Thunder Blade."

At this point, she grinned, showing her little tiger teeth, and said eagerly, "—How about, Captain, let me throw a couple more punches! I promise I won't use too much force!"

Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi's forehead creased with anger.

You punched me twice just to use me as a tool?

Who would believe that!

Bang~!

The girl gave her a hard knock on the head, making Ringo Yuri's eyes well up with tears.

"If you won't give it to me, then don't. Why did you hit me?"

The little girl muttered a curse in her ear, "I hope you're eliminated in the next round!"

Mei Terumi's opponent is Tsurugi of the Inu family from Konoha.

Logically speaking, the Inu clan ninjas all have a keen sense of smell and extremely strong perception, which, like the Sharingan, makes them relatively effective against the Kirigakure ninjas who excel at concealing their tracks.

But to be honest, Mei Terumi didn't really care about the other person.

She's actually more focused on her opponent in the next round!

If that annoying guy from Amegakure could take down that incredibly fast blond kid from Konoha...

Then I'll be facing myself in the quarterfinals!

Mei Terumi recalled what the other party had said to her before the written test, and her fighting spirit instantly surged.

Unfortunately, there were too many people around, so she couldn't say anything harsh. Instead, she shifted her dangerous gaze to Lin Qinyu Yuri and exclaimed, "Ouch! Why did you hit me again?"

"I'm the captain! What's it to you?"
