I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

"..." Danzo!

The atmosphere at the scene was tense.

Danzo remained silent, but inwardly he was screaming.

He felt that Kitahara Kaede must have already used the Sharingan and started cooperating with him.

Otherwise... how could he single-handedly prevent Sarutobi from leaving the Chunin Exams?

so.

This is a bloodless way to force the third generation to abdicate!

Kitahara Kaede, you are so gentle.

They even said they wouldn't agree to his request, but in the end, the third generation still had to abdicate.

Danzo felt a surge of excitement.

Ten years ago, he tried to assassinate Sarutobi to become Hokage, but he failed and was then suppressed by Sarutobi. Now... it's time for Sarutobi to step down.

Look at you, Sarutobi, how many mistakes you've made.

How much has Konoha rotted because of your pedantry?

So, this card should be handed to me. The roots of Konoha have had enough of darkness and mud; they need to climb into the sunlight.

···········

The atmosphere in the Hokage's office building froze, and the same was true for the group observing Kitahara Kaede (^_-).

From Kakashi's Team 7 to Guy's Team 1, they were all wiped out.

The Third Raikage's Hidden Cloud Village was also destroyed.

[Worst Wind Shadow - Luo Sha]: You guys...

However, just as the worst-performing Fengying was about to make a sarcastic remark and get revenge for the grievances and slander he had suffered over the past few days, he was also stunned.

Because he discovered that...his three children...had also plagiarized.

Gaara used the Eye of the Sand!

copy!

Gaara was being raised in a morbid way.

And learning? Learn my ass!

He can only write his own name!

So, when he observed that Sasuke was copying and the examiner did not stop him, he immediately began to copy.

He crafted an Eye of Sand and placed it on Kitahara Kaede's table.

Line of sight connects.

So he started copying Kitahara Kaede's answers.

Upon discovering that Rasa had begun his operation, Temari and Kankuro each used their own techniques to plagiarize.

finally.

Kitahara Kaede's incorrect answer spread rapidly.

[Worst Kazekage - Rasa]: ...

The Sand Village trio was also wiped out.

Rasa has no right to speak about Konoha.

What everyone also noticed was that Orochimaru, who had finished writing the standard answers, was completely dumbfounded as he watched this group of people energetically copying the wrong answers, and then copying them with great enthusiasm.

·····

[Observing Kitahara Kaede's small group (^_-)]

[Unmarried woman of marriageable age]: This is all over. My fellow test takers in Kirigakure are also cheating.

Mei Terumi, who had always thought that clinging to Kitahara Kaede's thigh was the right thing to do, was also a little confused.

because.

Shouldn't Kitahara-kun be the boss? How... did things turn out like this?

[Kidney Deficiency Fire Shadow]: Ah...

Kakashi was already lying on his back, seemingly unconcerned about looking like Ge You (a famous Chinese comedian) in a relaxed, reclining position.

[Matt Kai]: Waaah...

Tobirama Senju: ...

Tobirama Senju: ...

Minato Namikaze: ...

[Minato Namikaze, Tobirama Senju]: I understand! X2

Minato and Kakashi suddenly shouted at the same time.

[Hashirama Senju's younger brother]: What's wrong? What's wrong?

Tobirama Senju: Hahaha...

However, Tobirama laughed.

[Minato Namikaze]: Oh, I see. Haha...

Minato chuckled.

[Big Pillar Silly]: What's going on with you two?

[Minato Namikaze]: First Hokage, actually, this test was no problem.

[Minato Namikaze]: As expected of Kitahara-kun.

[Minato Namikaze]: Kitahara-kun is indeed clever.

[Big Pillar Silly]: ? ? ?

[Tobirama Senju]: Minato, you're very clever too.

The second generation routinely praised the "water gate" (a euphemism for a minor incident).

Then he explained.

"As a ninja who is skilled in perception and has the ability to think strategically," the Second Hokage continued.

[Tobirama Senju]: I mean, in this exam, all the candidates from Konoha actually passed.

[Big Pillar Silly]: ? ?

[Unmarried women in their late 30s and 40s]: !? I get it now!

[Kidney Deficiency Hokage]: All of Konoha's examinees passed... Wait... I understand now!

Kakashi, being highly intelligent, was able to react.

[Big Pillar Silly]: What are you guys talking about?!

[Worst Kazekage - Rasa]: Could you be more specific?!?

[Tobirama Senju]: This time, the test wasn't actually about answering questions, but rather about assessing the genin's comprehension and information gathering abilities.

[Tobirama Senju]: First of all, this written test is extremely difficult. Even we Hokage would need some time to complete it.

"..."

It was something that no one else could do, except for Minato who was more confident.

However, if Tobirama were to glorify himself, he would be glorifying everyone else, because no one else would do the same.

Therefore, Tobirama's statement was accepted.

[Tobirama Senju]: Such difficult questions for the Ninja Exams? That's unreasonable.

[Tobirama Senju]: So doing the questions isn't part of the exam. Let's count the number of test takers.

[Tobirama Senju]: At the beginning, Ibiki Morino said there were 177 people, but... there were 179 people present.

【Tobirama Senju】: And these two extra people, aren't they wearing headbands that are unfamiliar to everyone?

[Tobirama Senju]: So this is a test of the candidates' observation skills, whether they can discover that these two candidates are fake.

[Senju Tobirama]: So the normal procedure is to use these two fake test takers as targets to write the answers, and then see if the test takers can find out who they are.

[Tobirama Senju]: And look at the expressions on these two test takers' faces, they're totally bewildered, right? And look at their answers.

After Tobirama Senju's reminder, everyone discovered that the answers on these two candidates' papers... were exactly the same as Orochimaru's standard answers... except for one question.

In the essay section, both candidates wrote exactly the same thing.

This means... these two people were either planted or, in other words, pawns that Ibiki Morino initially placed among the test takers.

and so.

The exam assesses the candidates' thinking and observation skills.

Yes.

Since guns have been placed here, then... as long as it's plagiarism, it's acceptable.

and so.

As long as you copy the answers, whether they are correct or not, you have met the requirements of the exam.

and so.

The Konoha examinees who plagiarized... all passed.

[Big Pillar, Silly Guy]: Oh, I see!

Chapter 055 Gaara: You have Susanoo, I have a mother, come at me if you dare! (My darlings, please subscribe!)

[Observing Kitahara Kaede's small group (^_-)]

After Tobirama's explanation, the group members were momentarily stunned.

then.

[Kidney Deficiency Naruto]: I knew it! I knew it... I just didn't think Kitahara Kaede could write a bunch of wrong answers.

[Might Guy]: Oh ho! My Tenten, Neji, and Lee are finally safe!

Ah Kai cheered.

He was one of the first three students he accepted last year, and then... as a qualified and enthusiastic teacher, he really liked Tenten, Neji, and Lee.

Knowing that all three of them valued this Chunin Exam, they initially thought they had been eliminated. However, according to the Second Hokage, as long as they copied, they could pass the exam.

That would be great.

[Unmarried women of marriageable age]: This gave me a shock; I didn't know it was tested in this way.

Although Mei Terumi said that, she felt a little relieved.

really.

It was right to cling to Kitahara Kaede's coattails; Kitahara Kaede had grasped the core of this exam, which is why he casually wrote down the answers.

Because... he knew that he could pass the exam even if he wrote the wrong answers.

Mei Terumi quickly examined herself. Since she had chosen to rely on a powerful figure, it would have been very wrong for her to hesitate halfway through.

Otherwise, you won't have the right to cry if you're ever abandoned.

Unlike Mei Terumi.

[Third Raikage - A]: Oh, that startled me. So that's how it is.

[Third Raikage - A]: So, my juniors from Kumogakure can also pass the exam.

[Worst Kazekage - Rasa]: ...

Rasa was also relieved, which meant that Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro had also passed the first test.

but.
