"Strange, Mr. Minato is late today. Did he oversleep?" Obito said puzzledly after rushing to the training ground and only saw Nohara Rin and Kakashi.
"Do you think that's you, Teacher Minato?" Kakashi looked speechlessly at Obito, who arrived just in time for the assembly. He was almost late and yet he still complained about his teacher.
"It's as if you've never been late, Kakashi." Obito said unconvincedly, clenching his fist.
"I have been late before, but much less often than you." Kakashi replied calmly.
When he's not in good shape, he'll suffer from insomnia and a disrupted schedule, leading to being late, but this is a rare occurrence in a year, while Obito's lateness has already reached a point where "it's normal for him."
"How dare you slander someone out of thin air?" Obito glared at him and continued to argue, "What do you mean by late? I was there to help others. How can I be considered late for helping others?"
"Being late means not arriving at the agreed time, right?" Kakashi killed the debate with just one sentence.
"Okay, okay." Nohara Lin showed a helpless smile and began to change the subject, "Minato-sensei must be late for something important, and he's so fast, maybe he'll be here soon."
Given how reliable Minato had shown himself to be, Nohara Rin naturally wouldn't think that he would oversleep.
Whoosh!
As if to confirm Nohara Lin's words, Minato appeared in front of the three of them the next moment.
"Sorry, I'm a little late." Minato looked apologetic, but it soon turned into a gentle smile.
"Do you want to take part in the Chunin Exam? I recommend you. If you want to participate, you can fill out this application form." Minato took out three forms.
Nohara Rin's guess was correct. The reason why he was a little late was because he had just gone to the Hokage Building to get the qualification for the Chunin Exam.
"Chunnin Exam, that means I can be promoted to Chunin, yes, yes, yes!" Obito's eyes lit up and he said the important words three times.
Although Kakashi had been defeated, Obito was still unhappy about the fact that Kakashi's ninja level was higher than his, so he would rank lower than Kakashi when performing missions.
"It's just a qualification. You have to pass the exam to become a Chunin." Minato hurriedly explained, worried that Obito would mistakenly think that he could become a Chunin as long as he participated.
But after saying this, Minato felt that it didn't matter if he didn't say anything. As a teacher, he knew the strength of Obito and the other two. With this strength, there would be no problem for them to pass the Chunin Exam.
"Hehe, I can definitely pass." Obito was very confident in himself. He had defeated several Chunins from hostile ninja villages during missions.
Kakashi looked at the three forms in Minato's hand and was a little confused. Logically, two forms should be enough, so he asked, "Teacher, should I participate too?"
"Kakashi, haven't you already become a Chunin? How can you still take the exam? Can you become a Jonin if you pass the Chunin exams three times in a row?" Obito complained as he took a form with his photo on it from Minato.
Kakashi: ...
Even if you ask him this, he still doesn't know.
"Kakashi, you do have to take the exam, but passing the Chunin exams three times in a row does not make you a Jonin. Jonin can only be promoted by the Hokage." Minato answered the two's questions seriously.
"The reason why Kakashi can participate in this Chunin Exam is mainly because your team is special, special in every sense of the word." Minato continued to explain.
The Chunin Exam officially begins on July 1st, but Obito and Nohara Rin only graduate in mid-March, which means that Obito and Nohara Rin are rookie Genin who have only graduated for 14 months.
Generally, Genin who take part in the Chunin Exam have graduated for more than a year at the earliest, and most of them take the exam three years after graduation.
Some people join late not because they don't want to, but because they can't, because the Chunin Exam is not unconditional, and there are requirements on the time it takes to become a ninja and the team's mission experience.
The reason why Obito and his friends were able to take part in this Chunin Exam was closely related to the high-level tasks that Obito completed during his internship. After all, the S-level tasks were quite valuable. Then there was the recommendation of Minato Namikaze. The recommendation of the guiding Jonin could ignore the problem of a ninja's too short career.
However, this time the Chunin Exam had to be taken as a team. Taking into account that Obito's team had graduated in too short a time, as well as some other issues, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally allowed Kakashi, a Chunin, to take part in the Chunin Exam with Obito and Nohara Rin.
After listening to Minato's words, Kakashi nodded to show that he understood, and then took his own form away.
Kakashi looked at this somewhat familiar application form with a subtle expression on his face. It was really strange to participate in the Chunin exam as a Chunin.
Kakashi found that his experiences had become stranger and stranger since he had left the last official team. First, he formed a team with students from the Ninja School, then he encountered accidents during several consecutive missions, and now he had to take part in the Chunin Exam as a Chunin.
"Kakashi, don't hold us back just because you're already a Chunin." Obito said after filling out the form.
It suddenly occurred to him that if Kakashi gave up in the exam, he would not lose anything because he was already a Chunin, but they would suffer a great loss and would not be able to get promoted.
"Instead of worrying about me, you might as well worry about yourself. The first test of the Chunin Exam is the theoretical test. Those who fail will be eliminated directly." Kakashi looked up at Obito and said lightly, with contempt in his eyes that he was unwilling to hide.
This is the confidence that the perfect score theory brings him. Compared with theory, he can easily beat Obito.
"Ah? The first one is the theory test." Obito showed a look of fear, no longer caring about Kakashi's eyes. He quickly asked, "What does it take to pass?"
Now he just wanted Kakashi, an old guy who had already participated in the Chunin Exam, to reveal some information.
"It depends on the specific requirements. The requirements for the Chunin Exam are not the same every time." Kakashi replied, shaking his head.
There are two Chunin Exams a year, and the results in the same year may not be the same, let alone the ones he took a few years ago.
"But the minimum requirement, if based on a percentage system, is basically more than 60 points," Kakashi added.
Obito's expression became even more severe. Sixty points was a huge challenge for him.
"Just go back and review carefully, I'm sure you'll be fine." Minato encouraged with a smile. He had great confidence in his disciples.
"That's because you haven't seen me in my prime." Obito could only complain silently in his heart.
He is not as confident as Minato. You know, when he was in the Ninja Academy, he even scored in the single digits.
In the fourth grade, my grades improved slightly with Mu Yue's tutoring, but they dropped again as I learned less theory.
Of course, Obito has another way. Although he does not believe in his own theory, he believes in the omnipotent Mu Yue Sage, and he will seek help from Mu Yue Sage when he is in doubt.
…
Maybe Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to help Mu Yue make his resume look better, so Mu Yue held many positions in this Chunin Exam.
He was responsible for setting the test papers for the theoretical examination and was also the chief examiner for the second round of examinations. In addition, he also held some positions that were just nominal positions but did not require any work.
Although there seem to be many positions, there are actually not many tasks, and some of them can be completed by shadow clones. Overall, it is still within Mu Yue's acceptable range.
If Mu Yue is too busy, she will directly refuse. Wouldn't it be better to use that time to study more sealing techniques and medical ninjutsu? Why go to work for Sarutobi Hiruzen?
"It's really troublesome. We actually have to invite other ninja villages at a time like this. Can't we just do it ourselves? And why do I have to come to welcome them?" Jiraiya complained to Mu Yue beside him on the way to the Konoha gate.
Mu Yue smiled but said nothing. It was inappropriate for him to complain about issues of this level in public.
"Being able to hold this level of Chunin Exams during wartime can prove the strength of our Konoha to the daimyo and clients. Even among the five major ninja villages, we are the strongest." Mizuto Kado En paused and explained.
Their top management also held a meeting to discuss the issue of holding the Chunin Exam. Because the war was going very smoothly, they finally decided to invite other ninja villages to participate in the exam as before.
Let the participating ninja villages and the clients who come to visit the exam feel the strength of Konoha.
The first thing to be decided was the list of small ninja villages. All the surrounding small ninja villages were invited to make them stand more firmly on Konoha's side in the war.
As for the big ninja village, they chose the Hidden Mist Village. Although the Konoha high-level officials were very confident in the strength of their own village, they were not arrogant enough to call their opponents to the village to take the exam during the war.
Although Sunagakure did not go to war with Konoha, its own Kage had disappeared. In addition, the battle with Kumogakure was intense, so Konoha did not disturb Sunagakure and chose the Mist Village, the only one that did not participate in the war.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
After all, inviting only small ninja villages seems a bit like bullying the weak, and even if they fight well, it cannot prove their strength.
"Hruzen lets you come here because he values you. Don't let him down." Utane Koharu turned to Jiraiya with a stern face and said.
As an old classmate of Sarutobi Hiruzen, she could naturally guess from Sarutobi Hiruzen's series of actions who Sarutobi Hiruzen most wanted to train to be Hokage.
"The wind is quite noisy today." Jiraiya began to talk about things that had nothing to do with the topic.
He could see what Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking, but he really had no intention of becoming Hokage. He just wanted the war to end quickly so that he could continue traveling around the ninja world.
Both advisors looked at Jiraiya with expressions of disappointment.
When they were about to reach the door, the two advisors adjusted their facial expressions and looked at the oncoming Kirigakure ninja team with a smile on their faces.
It is naturally impossible for them to welcome all ninja villages. Only the Hidden Mist Village, which is one of the five major ninja villages, has this treatment. The smaller ninja villages have to show their own certificates and then come in.
Mu Yue stayed in the team with a calm face and looked at the Mist Hidden Team. Everyone gave an appraisal.
[Name: Yuanshi]
[Chakra: 74000]
[Skills: Water attribute chakra property change (mastered), Mist Hidden Technique (mastered), Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique (mastered)...]
This is an old man who looks to be between sixty-five and seventy years old and is holding a snake-shaped wooden staff. His faceplate looks quite good. Mu Yue estimates that he is a figure at the level of an elder of Kirigakure.
Although the panel is very good, Mu Yue feels that this master will not be able to beat the current Danzo in actual combat. The strength of a ninja is greatly affected at this age.
Mu Yue also saw some familiar faces who had appeared in the plot in the crowd, but they had not grown up yet.
[Name: Mei Terumi]
[Chakra: 4000]
[Potential: S]
[Skills: Water attribute chakra property change (proficient: 2200/3000), dissolution escape (proficient: 1000/3000), boiling escape (proficient)...]
The Fifth Mizukage, who will have a good figure in the future, is now still a flat, red-haired kid. He looks about the same age as Kakashi and the others. However, Mei Terumi, who can use water escape technique to block Madara's fire escape technique, does have a good talent, and her data in all aspects are very good.
[Name: Momochi Zabuza]
[Chakra: 3600]
[Skills: Water attribute chakra property change (proficiency: 900/3000), Mist Hiding Technique (proficiency)...]
Because of his early appearance, Zabuza has an extremely impressive record of battles. He once single-handedly forced the Sixth Hokage, the Indra Chakra reincarnation, and the Ashura Chakra reincarnation into a desperate situation.
Zabuza now looks about the same age as Kakashi. Although he is a child, his expression is very similar to the Zabuza in Mu Yue's memory. His lower face is wrapped in bandages and his eyes are extremely cold, as if he is unhappy with everyone.
[Name: Hoshigaki Kisame]
[Chakra: 7000]
[Skills: Water attribute chakra property change (proficient: 2400/3000), Water Style: Water Prison Technique (proficient), Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique (proficient)...]
Kisame doesn't look like the same age as Kakashi. Mu Yue conservatively estimates that he is at least two or three years older. Because Kisame has a rather special appearance, he estimated him to be younger.
"But this panel doesn't look like a Genin at all." Mu Yue thought as he looked at Kisame's panel.
This chakra is already similar to that of some ordinary jonin. Although the skill proficiency is slightly worse, it is not too much.
"Is Wuyin trying to cause trouble? Is there such a plot in the original novel?" Mu Yue kept thinking in his mind.
There are very few plots related to the Third Ninja World War. He only knows that Kirigakure and Konoha fought each other later. It is not clear whether Kirigakure's participation in the Chunin Exam was in the original work or the result of his butterfly effect.
I didn't understand the plot, but Mu Yue guessed their purpose based on the overall strength of the Kirigakure team. They probably wanted to defeat Konoha in the Chunin Exam.
With the overall strength of this Kirigakure team, they are not even worthy of causing trouble in Konoha Village. Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't even need to do it himself, Jiraiya can wipe out this team by himself.
Mu Yue could only say that it was a coincidence. If it had been another Chunin Exam, perhaps Kirigakure could have relied on the relatively young Mei Terumi and others to defeat Konoha. However, this time, his disciples happened to take part in the Chunin Exam, and he was present when the jonin recommended his disciples.
In fact, Mei Terumi is not very old. She was only 31 during the Fourth War, the same age as Kakashi.
There will be a two-in-one chapter later, but it will be late.
