Chapter 179
Even Sako couldn't bear to watch; Narutoimmediately started insulting other people's mothers.
"..."
Yakushi Kabuto's cheek twitched, but he still greeted them with a smile.
He kept Lord Orochimaru's orders firmly in mind.
—Get in close contact with Naruto and gather information about him.
Thus, Kabuto set his sights on Naruto.
As an upperclassman who had participated in the Chunin Exams multiple times, Kabuto quickly won the favor of the rookies.
With his introduction, everyone also learned a little about the specific process and rules of the Chunin Exams.
"Alright, you guys! Get back to your seats!"
As the first examiner, Morino Ibiki, appeared, everyone returned to their positions.
The first stage was a written exam.
The distributed test paper had a total of nine major questions.
Sakura glanced at it and confirmed that she could do it by herself: "Sasuke-kun should have no problem either..."
Recalling Sako's terrifying breadth of knowledge, Sakura felt she could get a perfect score.
The only one with a problem... was Naruto.
"Oh no."
Sako quickly scanned the test paper and knew it was very simple.
However, she was 100% sure... that Naruto, that academic slacker, wouldn't be able to answer a single question.
After all, it was always "chakra, chakra," if he knew anything, it would be a ghost!
So, Sakura and Sako both turned to look at Naruto.
As the examiner announced the start of the exam, the rustling sound of pens writing... echoed throughout the examination room.
And soon, Sakura and Sako discovered the true purpose of this assessment.
"The examiners... are testing the candidates' cheating abilities? I see..."
Sako and Sakura immediately recognized that there were a few plants among them, and they understood.
"Naruto... hurry and figure it out..."
The two girls murmured in their hearts.
"Hm!" Gaara, with a cold expression, reached out his hand and slowly formed a hand sign.
As the sand gathered, a Sand Eye formed.
"Crow... I'm counting on you."
Kankuro thought to himself.
The moment the examiners appeared, he had already blended his puppet among them... Buzz... Insects were flying.
Shino controlled insects to read other people's answers.
"Woof~! Woof~."
Akamaru, lying on Kiba's head, looked left and right. As a highly intelligent ninja dog, he naturally understood human handwriting.
Click.
On the ceiling, invisible steel wires manipulated mirrors, which began to reflect others' answers.
"Hehe~."
Tenten, a master of ninja tools, easily obtained the desired answers using this method.
"..."
Tos, with his eyes closed, used his unique ability to discern sounds to differentiate the handwriting sounds of those few plants from over 200 candidates, relying solely on his hearing.
"Byakugan!" Neji formed a hand sign and directly used his Byakugan Bloodline Limit to see through the candidates in the front row, directly seeing the answers on their desks.
"Good... very good..."
Morino Ibiki and the other examiners watched this scene, a smile playing on their lips.
There are quite a few highly skilled candidates this year.
However, at this moment, a figure stood up very arrogantly.
"Naruto-kun~."
Hinata, who had intended to show Naruto the answers, blinked her eyes and looked at Naruto, who had stood up, with some worry.
"You..."
Everyone looked at Naruto in unison.
Naruto, with his finger raised, was pointing at another candidate beside him.
"You're cheating! Examiners, I want to report him!"
Everyone: "..."
Nine-Tailed: "..."
So, this candidate was disqualified.
And the rule was... if one person was disqualified, the other two candidates in the squad would also be out.
Then, the two teammates stood up and walked away dejectedly.
Not only the candidates, but also Morino Ibiki and the other examiners, had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.
Naruto watched the three being expelled, nodding with a satisfied smile.
For a moment, Naruto felt that the Konohaforehead protector on his forehead shone even brighter.
He believed that these three guys would surely remember for the rest of their lives that cheating on an exam was wrong.
Naruto, with his memories from his previous life, deeply remembered that cheating in major life exams was absolutely not allowed.
"Examiners, I also want to report him."
Naruto pointed his finger at another person.
"..."
Ibiki and the others all looked over.
How could the examiners, with their Special Joninand Chunin strength, not discover the Genincandidates' cheating?
However, since Naruto openly pointed this out, they had no choice but to deal with it.
Watching the three more candidates being sent away, Naruto put his hands on his hips, his smile even brighter.
Ibiki and the other examiners exchanged glances, already starting to sense something amiss.
As Naruto continued to send away one squad after another, the number of people in the examination room began to decrease rapidly.
"Are you kidding me?!"
At this moment, someone finally stood up, slammed the table, and attacked Naruto.
"You, are you trying to die?"
And the next moment, he was pressed against the wall by an examiner.
Threatening other candidates... disqualified!
Next, everyone fell silent; they only dared to be angry but not speak.
And as Naruto looked towards Tenten.
The Chinese-style girl with her hair in buns immediately showed a fawning smile.
"Can we please... not expose me..."
Tenten's mouth shape was like this.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Naruto had an epiphany.
"Ten Ten-senpai, you also don't want to fail the Chunin Exams and drag down Neji and Lee, do you..."
So, through eye contact, Tenten compromised with Naruto.
However, she didn't know what kind of hell she was about to encounter.
"Alright!"
Seeing that if this continued, the Chunin Examscouldn't proceed.
Ibiki immediately stopped Naruto's actions and announced that the "tenth question" would be released early.
If one didn't take the exam, it would be a 0 score.
If one took the exam but didn't answer correctly, they would lose the qualification to participate in the Chunin Exams for life and could only remain a Genin forever.
Naruto immediately perked up upon hearing this.
So, Naruto was the first to raise his hand: "I... won't take it!"
Ibiki: "!!!"
"I, Uzumaki Naruto, got to where I am today through my own efforts."
Naruto began to explain, facing everyone's confusion.
Nine-Tailed: "..."
"Even if I choose to take the exam and don't answer correctly, I will still qualify to participate in next year's Chunin Exams, because I'm very familiar with the Old Man Hokage, and I don't want people to know that I, Uzumaki Naruto, am someone with connections. Because I want to become a Chuninthrough my own efforts!"
Naruto, after expressing his thoughts, then said to Ibiki and the other examiners.
"Examiners, you've worked hard... You... are the true heroes!"
Smile, finger point.
After making this gesture, Naruto was ready to leave.
Morino Ibiki watched Naruto about to leave, dumbfounded.
The main purpose of this assessment was Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke [Sako].
The feudal lords of various countries had already pre-ordered their "tickets."
If these two dropped out halfway, how would he explain it to his superiors?
So, with tears in his eyes, Ibiki shouted loudly: "Uzumaki Naruto, candidate... You, pass!"
Chapter 125. Naruto Targeted by Lady Orochimaru! Great Crisis!
Choosing not to take the exam.
Those who, at a critical moment, dare not stake their lives... who pin their hopes on an uncertain future like "there's always next year"... and those who give up opportunities, I believe such weak-willed good-for-nothings... are simply not qualified to become Chunin!
The above was the original correct answer to the tenth question.
However, facing Naruto's unreasonable move.
Ibiki could only swallow his tears and his pride.
No choice, who told him that he was a Hokage's descendant.
His father was the Fourth Hokage, his grandmaster was Jiraiya, and his great-grandmaster was the Sandaime.
He himself was also the most valuable Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
He was also the hero who saved the Hyuga.
At a young age, he repelled Biwa Jūzō, defeated Zabuza, and the Ice Release boy.
