Orochimaru: "As expected!"
Nii Yugito: "Indeed."
Nara Shikaku: "Looking at Black-Framed Naruto's performance, in reality, he already possesses the strength of an elite Jonin."
Akimichi Choza: "Perhaps it's because he is too steady?"
Hyuga Hiashi: "Being steady is quite good; he never fights a battle he isn't prepared for."
Inoichi Yamanaka: "Those who achieve great things should be like this."
Senju Tobirama: "Indeed, this kind of Black-Framed Naruto is the absolute powerhouse that the public can accept and recognize."
Uchiha Madara: Hmph!
Uchiha Madara: Is the recognition of ants that necessary?
[ 'Too close, it's a good thing I used Lightning Release: Lightning Clone earlier, otherwise I would have been lying down by now.' ]
[ 'As expected of Minato-sensei and Sister Kushina's child.' ]
[ 'Compared to me back then, he is far too impressive.' ]
[ Kakashi takes a deep breath. ]
[ Looking at Naruto clutching the two bells, he suddenly feels that if he didn't use his full strength, he really wouldn't be able to test Naruto's true depth. ]
[ 'No matter, it has only just begun; the days ahead are long.' ]
[ "You win." ]
[ Sensing movement behind him. ]
[ Kakashi turns back and says with a smile. ]
[ "Yeah~!" ]
[ Sakura is naturally not too surprised, but she is still very happy to have won. ]
[ Sasuke has a complex expression as he walks over, limping. ]
[ However, hearing that they won, he secretly breathes a sigh of relief as well. ]
[ Kakashi's strength is not weak, making Sasuke realize that his current strength is so feeble in front of a Jonin, let alone in front of that man. ]
[ However, just as the two thought they had passed the exam. ]
[ Kakashi suddenly narrows his eyes and says with a chuckle: "Don't be so happy just yet." ]
[ "There are only two bells." ]
[ "I said before, only those who snatch a bell are considered to have passed the exam." ]
[ "Those who didn't snatch a bell..." ]
[ "Will be sent back to the Ninja Academy to retake the year!" Kakashi's expression suddenly turns cold. ]
[ "Right now, only Naruto has passed." ]
[ "And he has two bells in his hand." ]
[ "In this exam, there are only two bells. You can go snatch them or beg for them, it doesn't matter. Without a bell... you're sent back to the Ninja Academy to retake the year!" ]
[ As the words fall. ]
[ Sakura and Sasuke are both stunned. ]
[ Naruto plays with the bells in his hand. ]
[ He cannot help but shake his head and smile. ]
[ How should he put it. ]
[ This kind of exam is truly disgusting. ]
[ "Of course, there is still one day left, no need to be in such a rush." ]
[ Kakashi says with a grin, looking at Sasuke, as if very expectant of what Sasuke's reaction will be. ]
[ "Hmph!" ]
[ Sasuke's gaze turns cold. ]
[ This white-haired lecherous uncle is truly annoying. ]
[ "No, we won't fall for it!" Sakura looks at Sasuke and then says solemnly. ]
[ She is afraid that Sasuke will act foolishly and dare to attack Naruto. ]
[ If they were to attack Naruto, all three would fail, and Sakura doesn't mind beating a drowning dog right now. ]
[ Snap — ]
[ Just at this moment. ]
[ The bells in Naruto's hand are crushed by him. ]
[ The three look over at the sound. ]
[ Kakashi remains calm on the surface, but internally he is overjoyed. ]
[ As expected, just as he thought. ]
[ The purpose of this exam has long been seen through. ]
[ Of course, he still has to act a little... ]
[ Otherwise, he, as the Jōnin Instructor, would seem a bit... dispensable. ]
[ "Both bells are gone." ]
[ "Since we were assigned to the same team." ]
[ "Then, it is normal to advance and retreat together." ]
[ "Either all three pass together, or all three are eliminated together." ]
[ "Of course, I think if our Team 7 fails the exam, then the others likely won't pass either." ]
[ Seeing this, Sakura's eyes sparkle with little stars. ]
[ Her heart is filled with joy. ]
[ Sasuke, on the other hand, keeps his head lowered, his expression complex. ]
[ Just a moment ago, he had indeed had a series of thoughts. ]
[ If he were to be sent back to the Ninja Academy to retake the year... among the three, the one eliminated would most likely be Sakura. ]
[ But because of Naruto's existence, the probability of himself being sent back became the highest. ]
[ "We are one!" ]
[ Sakura walks to Naruto's side, her words resonant and powerful. ]
[ Kakashi nods secretly. ]
[ Then he glances at Sasuke. ]
[ "Hmph!" ]
[ "Advance and retreat together!" ]
[ At this point, if Sasuke still hasn't figured out the true purpose of the exam, he might as well just run headfirst into a block of tofu and die. ]
[ Kakashi narrows his eyes, fully releasing his killing intent. ]
[ Hum — ]
[ Instantly, Sasuke's entire body stiffens, and Sakura's delicate body also shudders. ]
[ They only feel the pressure doubling, their minds in chaos. ]
[ After just a few breaths, a large amount of cold sweat appears on Sakura and Sasuke's foreheads. ]
[ Naruto frowns slightly. ]
[ "Killing intent?" ]
[ "It is indeed very strong, and quite effective." ]
[ "However, compared to the Great Fox's killing intent and the evil thoughts within its Chakra, Kakashi's killing intent pales in comparison." ]
[ Hearing this. ]
[ The Great Fox glances at him unhappily. ]
[ "Stupid brat, you actually compare him to This Fox?" ]
[ "Looking down on foxes?!" ]
[ Naruto's lips curl slightly, "Yes, yes, yes, the Great Fox is the most powerful fox in the entire Ninja World~" ]
[ The Great Fox: "..." ]
[ Disgusting! ]
[ Vulgar! ]
[ How does the truth taste so different coming out of your mouth?! ]
[ Hmph~ ]
[ If This Fox isn't powerful, then who is? ]
This scene.
Left the Nine-Tailed in the Sealing Space completely speechless.
It has a bad premonition.
The version of itself in the Black-Framed World seems to have changed quite a bit.
This kind of talk... would this lord say something like this?!
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Let alone saying such things, this lord wouldn't even think it!
Still broken.
[ "Very good." ]
[ "Then the three of you will just..." ]
[ Kakashi's voice pauses. ]
[ Waiting for a moment. ]
[ Then the fierce look on his face completely vanishes. ]
[ "Congratulations, you have all passed~!" ]
Whoosh —
Sakura sighs in relief.
Sasuke takes a deep breath, and his tensed heart finally relaxes.
Naruto is not surprised at all.
"Very good."
"Your choice was very correct."
"A Ninja must be calm and collected. Various unexpected situations will arise when executing missions. Without a calm heart, it is difficult to cope with various situations."
"In the Ninja World, those who violate the rules and iron laws are called trash."
"But, those who ignore their comrades, those who do not cherish their comrades, are the biggest trash of all."
Chiyo: "Hmph, as expected of the son of the White Fang · the Copy Ninja Kakashi Hatake."
Chiyo: "Not only can he copy Ninjutsu, he can even copy other people's words."
Might Guy rubs his head, looks at Kakashi, "Kakashi, how does she know that?"
Kakashi: "..."
