Chapter 127 A small victory, the smile of Versailles
The assembly hall was still full of people.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's foot-wrap-like speech finally came to an end, and he sat back in his seat, complacent and in a good mood.
In the venue, a ninja wrapped in a headscarf and holding a thousand books in his mouth suddenly appeared.
He is the chief examiner and referee of this exam, Shiranui Genma.
Originally, the chief examiner was the tuberculosis ghost, Moonlight Gale. Later, Third Hokage mentioned that the image was not good and affected Konoha. Then Moonlight Gale was replaced by Genma Shiranui.
"Next, all the candidates are invited to enter.
Twelve candidates appeared one after another in the conference hall, lined up in a row, facing the audience.
There are in total.
Konoha five, Rock Lee, Aburame Shino, Inuzukaya, Akimichi Chōji, Kohiyama one.
Cloud Shinobi Village two people, Omoi, Yurui.
Iwagakure alone, black soil.
Kirigakure two people, ghost lamp water moon, long Juro.
Sunagakure two, Gaara, Temari.
"Is that Gaara? Wow, it's really him, just like on TV.
"What a poor child."
"Such a small one, he looks fierce, but he is actually soft inside. Is he covering up his soft heart with fierceness? Ah, ah, so cute!
When the audience saw Gaara's appearance, they suddenly became noisy, and almost everyone focused their attention on Gaara.
The other candidates were ignored by the audience.
Gaara is now, like an idol star, attracting attention.
"Why? Aren't they afraid of me? Am I not cruel enough?
Those scorching eyes made Gaara feel uncomfortable.
Not used to it.
It was all awkward all over.
He had grown accustomed to that kind of indifference and disgust in his eyes since he was a child, but suddenly there was a 180-degree change, which became so fast that he was at a loss.
"It's great, I want to be on TV too. Why didn't the young lady from the TV station come to interview me?"
Rock Lee murmured softly, with a look of envy on his face.
"Damn, I really want to slap a punch in the face. It's too hateful to have such a big limelight. No one pays attention to us. I still want to make a name for myself on this big stage."
The ghost lamp Shuiyue glared at Gaara fiercely, burning with jealousy.
The other students were equally upset.
This Chūnin exam was originally a big stage for them to show their faces. On the stage, all the shadows of the five villages gathered together. Such a grand stage was taken away by Gaara alone. Envy, jealousy, and hatred were naturally inevitable.
"Before the game, I have something to say.
"look at this!"
Shiranui Genma took out a blank sheet from his arms, and on it was written the matchup situation.
The twelve candidates opened their eyes wide, wanting to see who their opponents were.
Rock Lee VS Yurui.
Aburame Shino VS Chojuro.
Akimichi Chōji VS Ghost Lantern Shuiyue.
Temari vs Omoy.
Inuzuka Tooth vs Black Earth.
Gaara VS Kohiyama one.
"Make sure you know who your opponent is, and remember it well.
"So, let's start the first match, Konoha Village Rock Lee vs. Cloud Shinobi Village Yurui."1
"Other candidates can enter the auditorium and wait."
Shiranui Genma directly announced the start of the game.
Soon, he was the only one left in the arena, along with Rock Lee and his opponent, Yurui.
"Oh, oh, am I the first, the first battle? My blood is boiling, come on, let's have a vigorous, youthful and bloody game."1
Xiao Li was the first to ignite, his eyes were on fire, and his whole body was full of momentum.
That fiery enthusiasm is full of contagion.
The audience cheered loudly, focusing on these Genins for the first time.
"Lightning Style, snare --"
Yurui was silent, and just started to seal.
Lightning flashed, and a net composed of thunder and lightning suddenly opened, getting bigger and bigger, and shrouded Xiao Li even more.
He had seen Xiao Li's physical skills and knew that the opponent was extremely fast. Once he got close, he would definitely not be Xiao Li's opponent.
Therefore, in the first step, Xiao Li's speed must be limited.
boom!
Xiao Li took a step, and the person disappeared. The speed was so fast that compared with a month ago, there was a significant improvement.
"Yo, this green-clothed youth is quite strong, I can't even see where his body is, and I can only see phantoms.
"The boys in Cloud Shinobi Village are also good, very calm, and very skilled in Lightning Style ninjutsu.
"This time in the Chūnin exam, Genin's quality is very good, much stronger than the competition he has seen before."
"Not bad, Yan."
At the beginning of the game, the audience cheered even more enthusiastically.
They talked a lot and were amazed.
As most of the audience members are ordinary people, Genin's fighting ability just scratches their hearts, so that they can see how powerful they are, can talk to others, and talk nonsense.
If it were a Chūnin, or even a Jōnin battle, ordinary people might be confused because they couldn't understand it.
"Hehe, Lei Manzi, your ninja is going to lose.
"Da Yemu, you immortal, your family is about to lose."
"The Genin of Konoha is a taijutsu ninja, and the Cloud Shinobi Genin Chakra can be exhausted just by consuming it. Fourth Raikage, your ninja, is really going to lose."
On the high platform, Raikage and Tsuchikage quarreled again, and Fengying Luosha also interjected, making a mockery of it.
Sunagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village are equally intolerant, and if there is a chance to complain, Luo Sha will naturally not miss it.
Only Yagura of Kirigakure watched the battle quietly without saying a word.
After going through the big changes, his temperament has become more calm.
Noisy after another, Oh Yemu, Ai, and Luo Sha all had some kind of strange light flashing in their eyes, extremely solemn.
They all saw the gap between the two sides of the battle.
Xiao Li was still warming up and did not go all out at all.
Even so, Yurui had to deal with it extremely hard, and if he was not careful, he would lose instantly.
Although I have received various information from Konoha Genin, I know that the overall strength of Konoha Genin is amazing, but the information is not as clear as seeing it with my own eyes.
The pressure fell on them.
Genin, that represents the future of the village.
The future is inferior to people, doesn't it mean that the future of the village will also be subservient to Konoha?
"I can't let Konoha continue to rise like this."
Luo Sha clenched his fists and finally made up his mind.
"Konoha can no longer indulge like this, we must suppress them."
Raikage snorted, the thought flashed through his mind.
"Konoha's strength is expanding too fast, and it really needs to be suppressed. However, be more prudent and wait for the changes."
Onogi narrowed his eyes, scheming.
"Take care of your own affairs first, the rise of Konoha, and it's not the Kirigakure family who is uncomfortable. The few of them should be unable to hold back their hands, so we just watch the fun, and the matter has nothing to do with us.
Tangerine Yagura thought to himself, more stable as Mount Tai.
"Leaf Hurricane--"
Xiao Li's movements accelerated again.
With a swish, he appeared in front of Yurui and kicked him.
"Lightning Style, Lightning Arm --"
Yurui gritted his teeth, his arm shook, and the lightning flashed, his arm strength doubled, and he also waved his arm out to block the foot.
boom!
bang bang bang!
Yurui couldn't stop the castration, he retreated a dozen steps in a row, and his center of gravity was lost.
bang bang bang!
Xiao Li showed no mercy, and went up with a series of punches and kicks, Yurui was in a downtrend, and finally couldn't resist, and flew out.
Yurui still wanted to struggle, trying to adjust his center of gravity.
As soon as he landed, his body sank, Xiao Li was already behind him, and a kunai was placed on his neck.
"It's all over, winner, Konoha Village, Rock Lee."
Shiranui Genma appeared beside Xiao Li and grabbed his arm to prevent him from hitting hard.
As soon as the results of the game came out, the cheers from the audience were even louder and deafening, and the whole Konoha heard the cheers.
"Konoha wins!"
"Konoha wins!"
The Konoha Village residents couldn't help but smile knowingly.
The audience was overwhelmingly Konoha Village residents, and the cheers were so loud that there was no doubt that Konoha won.
"Lord Raikage, Busi, I, Konoha, won this match."
Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a Versailles smile to Ai, and he was in a good mood.
Fourth Raikage's snoring was thicker and heavier, anger was held in his chest, and he was about to hold back his internal injuries.
