Konoha: I have a clone in One Piece

Chapter 232 Please answer the question: What do the roots buried in the mud represent?

at this time.

Under the shade of a tree on the right side of the examination hall.

Uchiha Sasuke was staying with his brother Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui who came to cheer for his friends.

"Itachi, don't be too burdened with this Chunin Exam."

"Lord Hokage, they value this opportunity for communication more. Friendship comes first, competition comes second. You just need to use your strength normally."

Uchiha Shisui looked at Uchiha Itachi's haggard face and couldn't help but comfort him.

"Yeah, I know."

Uchiha Itachi nodded seriously.

On the side, Uchiha Sasuke also encouraged Uchiha Itachi:

"Brother, you are the most powerful, you will definitely win the first place!"

"Ha ha……"

Hearing the encouragement from his cute brother, Uchiha Itachi smiled heartily.

However, just when he was about to tap his brother's forehead affectionately before entering the examination room, Uchiha Sasuke suddenly looked to the other side and shouted with joy:

"Ah, it's Rooni-chan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't wait to run towards Uchiha Madara on his short legs.

"..."

Uchiha Itachi's outstretched arm stopped awkwardly in mid-air.

After being stunned for a while, he looked at Madara Uchiha, who was walking towards him, with an expressionless face.

Is this this guy...

Uchiha Itachi narrowed his eyes and looked at Uchiha Madara seriously.

Feeling the gaze of others, Uchiha Madara frowned and then looked over.

When he saw Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui standing aside, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

That brat...is Sasuke's brother?

He actually has a good relationship with that sick-brained Shisui brat...

It seems...it's also a weird thing.

Thinking of Uchiha Kagami who once shamelessly ran to be Senju Tobirama's guard, Uchiha Madara suddenly showed disdain.

That idiot gave birth to a stupid son, and his grandson is equally stupid!

Fortunately, I chose Obito in the first place. It's better to be stupid than stupid.

Uchiha Madara touched the head of Uchiha Sasuke, who was hugging his thigh, with a sigh on his face.

However, after he just looked over, the flash of disdain in his eyes made Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but clench his fists.

provocative? You actually seduced Sasuke in front of me?

Damn vixen!

In an instant, Uchiha Itachi's expression became colder.

soon.

Uchiha Madara took Uchiha Sasuke's little hand and walked over, looked at Uchiha Itachi and chuckled:

"You must be Sasuke's brother."

"Sasuke is a really good kid. He has excellent talent. Remember to train him more when you have time in the future. Don't waste such a good talent."

"..."

Like a thunderbolt from the blue, Uchiha Itachi's eyes widened instantly!

Sasuke is such a good kid...

Sasuke is so good...

Sasuke...

The previous words and the following words were all automatically filtered by Uchiha Itachi.

The words 'Sasuke is really good' kept echoing in his mind, and he even gradually imagined Uchiha Madara holding the hand of his lovely brother with a proud look on his face, and saying to himself 'Your brother is really good. , he will be my brother's picture from now on.

"Hiss~"

People's hearts are so evil that they are like this!

Itachi Uchiha gasped, and quickly pulled Uchiha Sasuke over and hugged him tightly.

Then, he looked at Uchiha Madara, gritted his teeth and whispered:

"Stop being delusional!"

"I will definitely be number one in this Chunin Exam!"

"???"

Uchiha Madara's face was filled with questions.

What is this inexplicable hostility about?

Is there something wrong with this kid's brain?

the other side.

Inside the examination room for the first written test of the Chunin Examination.

A group of examiners are carefully checking everything in the classroom.

Chakra is an extremely magical thing, and the ninjutsu performed by chakra is even more bizarre. Although the first written test is more about testing the ninja's intelligence ability, it is still necessary to prevent additional help from cheating in advance. of.

Not long after.

The examiners have finished inspecting the classroom.

"It's almost time, do you want to ask them to come in?"

Morino Ihiki asked the examiner beside him, Yamanaka Haiichi.

Unlike the past Chunin Exams in Konoha Village, this time as a Chunin Exam that brought together almost all the forces in the ninja world, all the senior leaders of Konoha Village believed that Morino Ihiki alone would not be able to control the situation.

Therefore, the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato specially transferred Morino Ihiki's direct boss, head of the Torture Department and Intelligence Department, Yamanaka Haiichi.

"Not urgent."

Yamanaka Haiichi shook his head, then looked at the test papers on the podium and said in a deep voice:

"Check the test paper again."

"yes!"

Morino Ihiki and a group of deputy examiners responded.

Soon, a group of examiners began to read the test papers carefully one by one.

However……

"This kind of question is ordinary."

In the silent classroom, a comment suddenly sounded.

But strangely, no one reacted!

Suzuki stood next to Yamanaka Haiichi and the examiners as if there was no one there. He lowered his head slightly and stared at the questions on the test paper. He couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at it.

"Are you looking for trouble for me? Let me give you a gift first."

Suzuki chuckled, then raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

In an instant.

Everyone is still!

A silvery white light flashed in Suzuki's eyes, and the consciousness and senses of several deputy examiners and Yamanaka Haiichi were instantly distorted.

At the same time, the handwriting on the test paper also changed quietly.

Looking at the current question, Suzuki nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered to an examiner with dull eyes:

"You are responsible for delivering the test papers, right?"

"After that, remember to take the paper to the north corner of the Forest of Death and give it to a mountain wind, you know?"

"Yes...sir..."

The examiner nodded dully.

"Danzo, you have to catch this overwhelming wealth~"

Suzuki smiled, then walked past Yamanaka Haiichi with a calm expression, and slowly left the classroom.

next moment.

The picture scroll continues to flow.

"This one is fine."

"This is mine too."

"me too……"

"..."

The examiners who were checking the test papers looked at the changed questions and reported aloud without noticing.

Shanzhong Hai glanced at the test paper and found nothing wrong. Then he nodded seriously and said in a deep voice:

"Okay, in that case, let's call all the candidates in."

"yes!"

Several examiners quickly headed to the entrance of the examination room.

Outside the examination hall.

When all the candidates were getting impatient, a shout sounded.

"Everyone, you can come in!"

"The exam is about to begin, I wish you all immediate success!"

Upon hearing the examiner's call, the candidates rushed into the examination room.

"It finally started..."

"Get in, get in!"

"Don't squeeze..."

"Hey, you little brat, get out of here!"

"Huh? You damn barbarian, do you want to be blown up by me?"

"Be careful, stay away from those swordsmen!"

"..."

Candidates from different countries and different forces all ran towards the gate without giving in to anyone.

Suddenly, the entrance to the examination room became extremely crowded.

"Don't squeeze!"

"Everyone has a number plate. You can get it at the end of the corridor. That is your examination room and examination number!"

"There are nine classrooms in total. Qian Xiang, don't enter the wrong examination room. You...huh?? Don't squeeze me!"

Several examiners shouted loudly, but they were quickly pushed by the crowd and unfortunately were squeezed out of the door.

How many people are taking the Chunin Exam this time?

You can roughly tell just by looking at the nine classrooms that are already full.

Each of these nine examination rooms has an average of about fifty or sixty seats, and each examination room is noisy.

Examination room No. 5.

Madara Uchiha, Kabuto Yakushi and others are in this classroom.

At the door, some people had a conflict because of the previous crowding, and this time it broke out at the door.

"Jie Jie... brat, I didn't expect that we are still in the same examination room!"

A Kumo ninja looked at a child of about ten years old with blond hair with a ferocious smile.

After looking at the forehead protector on the forehead of his companion, the cloud ninja suddenly smiled even more cruelly:

"Hoho... I'm actually from Yanyin Village..."

"Kid, I heard that the second exam will be in a forest called the Forest of Death. How do you want to die then?"

"Do you want to be torn in half? Or do you want to have your head pulled out directly?"

"..."

Hearing the provocation from the Kumo ninja in front of them, the several Iwa ninja standing next to Deidara looked at each other and said in their hearts that it's not good!

Afterwards, several people quickly grabbed Deidara who was about to take action.

"let me go!"

"Didn't you hear what he just said? This guy is looking for death!"

"Ahhh...I'm going to blow him to pieces!!!"

Deidara was so angry that he bared his teeth and struggled, but he was still held tightly by the ninjas of Iwagakure Village who were accompanying him.

"Don't be impulsive, Deidara!"

"Yes, this is Konoha Village, not our Iwagakure Village!"

"Be patient for a while, didn't he also say it was the second exam? How about I blow him up then?"

"..."

However, Deidara wouldn't listen at all.

He was still struggling desperately to express his anger, and at the same time he shouted angrily at the Cloud ninja who provoked him:

"Damn barbarian, I'm going to put a thousand bombs in your mouth!"

"I want……"

"quiet!"

Yamazaka Haiyi's voice suddenly sounded like thunder.

"..."

The candidates who were arguing endlessly fell silent instantly, and all turned their heads to look over.

Shan Zhonghai glanced at the candidates in the examination room with a serious expression, and then said in a deep voice:

"Everyone, sit down in your seats!"

"The exam is about to start. If you want to continue arguing and get failed directly, why not get out of here now!"

"..."

The candidates looked at each other for a while.

Then they very obediently returned to their seats and sat down one by one.

While waiting for the test papers to be distributed.

Because the first exam was a written test, all the leaders of the major forces who came to visit the Chunin Examination were all in the conference room on the first floor of the Hokage Building, drinking tea and chatting and laughing.

"Hokage-dono."

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa put down his tea cup, looked at Namikaze Minato who was sitting in the front, and asked curiously:

"What exam questions did you prepare for Konoha?"

"Not all the candidates coming this time are ninjas!"

"snort."

Before Namikaze Minato could answer, the Sandaime Tsuchikage Onoki snorted coldly and said mockingly:

"What else could it be?"

"I heard that Konoha Village's past written examinations were about the will of fire. If these candidates are asked to answer the question of 'will of fire' this time, Konoha Village will probably have a large number of foreign ninjas next year. "

"Lord Tsuchikage is joking."

Namikaze Minato shook his head and replied calmly:

"This time we set the test questions based on the current situation of the entire ninja world."

"Whether it's a person with secret treasure abilities, a ninja, or a swordsman from the Kingdom of Iron, they all stand on the same starting line."

"We in Konoha have always been fair and just. Lord Tsuchikage is worrying too much."

When the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen saw this scene, he immediately picked up the teacup and said with a smile:

"Haha... drink tea, drink tea."

"This is good tea that I bought specially from Loulan. One gram costs more than a thousand taels!"

soon.

With Hiruzen Sarutobi calming down, everyone continued to drink tea and chat.

Konoha Village, inside the classroom examination room.

Several deputy examiners distributed test papers to the candidates and warned them seriously:

"Don't look around, don't yell, just raise your hands silently if you have something to do, and don't disturb other candidates!"

"You are not allowed to leave early after finishing the questions..."

"..."

Facing the examiners' warnings, all the candidates nodded obediently.

Not long after.

All test papers have been distributed.

However, when the candidates looked at the test papers in their hands, their eyes widened and they fell into astonishment.

[Ninja World United Chuunin Exam Questions——]

[Question 1: What do you think darkness is? 】

[Question 2: What do the roots buried in the mud represent? 】

【……】

[Question 6: Please name ten ways you can make the enemy die within five seconds. 】

[Question 7: When the enemy is two hundred meters away from you and runs toward you at a speed of thirty-five meters per second...]

【……】

In the back row, on the seat near the back door of the classroom.

Uchiha Madara looked at the test paper in his hand and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

What the hell?

Are all ninjas this realistic nowadays?

Madara Uchiha, who had never taken a test before, thought it was a normal test for chuunin candidates from the five major ninja villages.

He sneered, and then began to answer the questions.

[First question, answer: Darkness is darkness. No darkness can withstand powerful power. If there is darkness, break it directly! 】

[Second question, answer: What is the difference between roots in the mud and mice? 】

【……】

[Question 6, answer: Five seconds is too much, let’s give it one second. 】

【……】

the other side.

A seat in the front row near the podium.

Uchiha Itachi looked at the test questions on the table and fell into deep thought.

How could such a problem arise in the village?

But... that's right, ninjas often need to fight and lurk. Is this a way to screen out those among us who are not suitable to be ninjas?

The roots in the mud...are they testing our views on patience? Indeed, whether in combat or on espionage missions, ninjas need to learn patience.

Uchiha Itachi, who thought he understood the deep meaning of the high-level officials of Konoha Village, took a deep breath, and then glanced at Uchiha Madara, who had already begun to immerse himself in the problem. His eyes suddenly showed an extremely strong competitiveness and determination.

Even in the written test, I will definitely surpass you!

The next moment, Uchiha Itachi looked serious, lowered his head and started to do the questions.

[First question, answer: Darkness is the other side of light. If there is no darkness, there will be no light! 】

[Second question, answer: The roots in the mud may seem dirty, but they are the greatest heroes! The deeper the roots are buried, the more nutrients the tree will absorb and the stronger it will grow. Therefore, the roots represent the burden, the responsibility, and...]

【……】

One in the back seat near the window.

Deidara looked at the test paper in his hand and smiled disdainfully.

What darkness? What roots in the mud?

Yep, only explosions are real art!

Deidara stopped spinning the pen in his other hand, placed the paper on the table casually, lowered his head and began to answer the questions.

At the same time, after the other candidates were stunned for a short time, some finally couldn't help but raise their hands.

"Examiner, is there something wrong with this question?"

At the podium, Morino Ihiki frowned and slowly walked to the candidates who raised their hands.

He lowered his head slightly and glanced at the test papers on the table, then looked at the candidates who raised their hands with sharp eyes and scolded:

"What is the problem?"

"Everyone has the same problem as you!"

With that said, Morino Ihiki pointed to Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Itachi, and Deidara who had already begun to work on the questions, and said:

"They have already started to do the questions, but you are still here yelling. Do you not want to take the exam?"

"No no no!"

The candidate who raised his hand looked a little flustered and shook his head quickly, then quickly picked up the pen and said nonchalantly:

"I'll do it now, I'll do it now..."

"snort."

Morinoi Hiki continued to stare coldly for a while, and then slowly walked back to the podium.

Seeing this scene, other candidates showed expressions of realization.

It turns out... is this a question deliberately set by Konoha Village?

Also, when you are about to become a chuunin, it’s time to face reality and learn how to fight and face the darkness.

No wonder Konoha Village is so powerful. Did they all receive this kind of education?

All the candidates suppressed their shock and then started to work on the questions.

For a while.

Except for the rustling sound of writing, the classroom was extremely quiet.

Different from Morino Hiki.

Although this time it was also the home field of Konoha Village, the examiner Yamanaka Haiichi obviously had no plans for the tenth question.

However, seeing all the candidates working on the questions quietly, Yamanaka Haiichi was still a little surprised.

Is the quality of the candidates this time so high? No one cheated.

Is it because you don’t want to be caught red-handed and embarrass your village in front of so many forces?

Yamanaka Hai glanced at the candidates who were working hard on the questions and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

What a group of...excellent and responsible young people! (End of chapter)
