Konoha: Naruto From a Wolf

Chapter 15 Qualifiers

There is only half an hour left before the exam ends.

The Sandaime of Konoha and the guiding jonin from each village gradually arrived.

"Hey Sandaime!!" Izuno looked at the old man wearing the Hokage robe above, his eyes full of little stars.

The Kaminarimon gate on the side is similar.

For the first time, Naruto had a relatively comprehensive understanding of this old man who often came to his house to break in.

Unexpectedly, in his own eyes, the Sandaime, who was no different from other old men, would actually be an idol-like existence in the eyes of other ninjas of the same age.

As if aware of their gazes, the Sandaime Hokage looked at them, nodded and smiled.

"Well, my determination to become Hokage is even stronger." Izuno said.

At this moment, the two teams, led by the invigilator, slowly walked into the queue and lined up.

Naruto looked at the Class 7 team next to him who had all failed. He had doubts in his eyes. He knew the strength of the 7th class. Even if Sakura was dragging them down, but with Sasuke and Sai who were not bad at it, the 7th class would not be lucky again.

Bad, it’s not that bad, right?

Especially Sakura, her whole body was covered with bandages. Judging from the exposed skin on the edges, it must have been corroded by something.

Not only him, Sai was also covered in bandages and had the same scars...

"Sakura, are you okay?" Ino asked in a low voice.

Class 10 and Class 7 came in at the same time.

Sakura shook her head slightly, "I'm fine."

Ino looked worried, but didn't say much.

Naruto withdrew his gaze from the three members of Team 7 and looked towards the high platform, where he saw the Third Hokage slowly taking a few steps.

"Children, first of all, congratulations on your success in getting here." The Sandaime took off the pipe from the corner of his mouth and said slowly.

"But since the third exam needs to be open to dignitaries from various countries, some people still need to be screened."

"Trouble." Shikamaru looked at Team 7 beside him.

Although with their help, Class 7 managed to pass the second exam, they were powerless in the qualifying round they were going to face next.

"Ugh!" Sasuke groaned, clutching the back of his neck in pain.

"Sasuke, are you okay?" Sakura, standing behind him, asked quickly.

Naruto, who was in the last position, could see clearly that there was a strange three-magatama pattern on the back of Sasuke's neck.

[It seems like a lot has happened...]

"Since the third exam is an individual competition, if someone feels that they are unable to participate, they can raise their hands and it will not affect the team's results."

Said a jounin holding a thousand books in his mouth and presiding over the preliminaries on behalf of the Sandaime.

"One minute to think about it."

"I abstain!" A white-haired ninja raised his hand and said.

Naruto had an impression of him. During the first exam, this man seemed to pay a lot of attention to Sasuke and seemed to be called Yakushi Kabuto.

"I abstained, and my teammates were injured..."

Before Sakura could finish her words, Sasuke stopped her, "Sakura, don't make me hate you!!"

"But, your injuries!" Seeing Sasuke's painful expression, Sakura was about to raise her hands again.

"Let's go, Sakura!" Kakashi appeared next to her with the teleportation technique and said to her.

"Kakashi-sensei, please give Sasuke some advice." Sakura said hurriedly, as if grasping the last straw.

"Sorry, I'll take her away right now." Kakashi ignored her and smiled apologetically at Genma Shiranui in front of the team.

Seeing Sakura being forcibly taken away by Kakashi, Naruto could actually see the feeling of relief from the painful Sasuke.

"Is there anyone else who wants to abstain?" Shiranui Genma asked again.

"..."

"The order of the next battle will be randomly selected by the machine. Other unrelated personnel please go to the second floor to watch the battle."

After taking a look at the names displayed on the screen, Naruto and the other three walked towards the stairs.

"Uchiha Sasuke VS Red Copper Armor!"

On the field, Uchiha Sasuke and a strangely dressed Oto-nin stood opposite each other.

"You don't seem to be in a good condition." Red Copper Armor smiled cruelly.

Shiranui Genma glanced at the two of them, waved his left hand, "Start!"

"Well done." Moonlight Hayate smiled at the three Narutos.

"Easy!" Izuno smiled confidently.

"To be honest, I really just recommended you to take the Chunin Exam with the idea of ​​letting you give it a try. I didn't expect you to go so far." Moonlight Hayate chuckled.

"Please teacher, even if you don't believe in us, you still have to believe in Naruto, right?" Raimon hooked Naruto's shoulder and chuckled.

Moonlight Blast nodded.

At this time, the battle on the field has entered a stalemate.

Although Uchiha Sasuke was ill, the Red Copper Armor only took advantage verbally, and attacked steadily, expanding his advantage bit by bit.

Just when everyone thought that Uchiha Sasuke would lose due to his physical disadvantage, a shocking reversal suddenly occurred.

Without using any ninjutsu, Uchiha Sasuke suddenly exploded, knocking the red copper armor to the ground with a series of heavy and powerful kicks.

"So strong." Raimon's mouth opened slightly.

"As expected of the top student of our class." Izuno also nodded.

Just now, they were only a shoulder apart from Team 7, so they could clearly see each other's condition.

To put it bluntly, even if the other party faints and falls to the ground in the next second, they will feel normal.

But even with such serious injuries, Uchiha Sasuke was still able to win. From this point of view, he was worthy of the name of Uchiha.

"But speaking of Naruto, why weren't you the chief student at that time?" Izuno asked in confusion.

After getting along with him for so long, she understood Naruto's achievements.

Her combat prowess is off the charts, and her theoretical results put her to shame.

"My grades are a bit poor." Naruto shook his head slightly.

"I heard that in your class, there was a student who was always absent from classes, even the final exam." Moonlight Hayate asked appropriately.

Izuno looked like he was suddenly enlightened.

"Got it."

Naruto is really a big-hearted guy. If you think about it carefully, he may not take the final exam seriously.

Judging from her knowledge of him during this period, this guy was designated to be fishing on the day of the exam.

Preliminary selection of the past.

The three of them also had a preliminary understanding of the fighting methods of ninjas in other villages.

The fourth game, Izuno Akiku VS Yamanaka Ino.

The Izuno clan's cat-like ninjutsu VS the Yamanaka clan's inner-turning technique!

Although Izuno has grown tremendously in the past six months, it is a pity.

Compared with the legitimate daughter of the mountain clan, she was still slightly lacking, and she ultimately lost sadly.

The fifth game, Temari VS Tenten.

Temari, the queen of the sand ninja, easily won with her outstanding wind escape ninjutsu.

Game 6, Nara Shikamaru VS Jin.

IQ crushed the game and Shikamaru won.

Game 7, Uzumaki Naruto VS Hyuga Hinata.

On the field, Naruto looked at Hinata, who was sitting next to him in the first exam, and nodded slightly.

"Naruto-kun, hello, long time no see." Hinata Hinata said, her cheeks turned red inexplicably.

"Long time no see." Naruto said.

"Start!" Shiranui Genma stepped aside the moment he finished speaking.

"Please let me see the Hinata family's soft fist." Naruto slowly pulled out the Kakimaru.

"Okay, okay." Hinata nodded slightly and slowly opened her posture.

After the little girl entered the state, she no longer looked timid and had a certain momentum of her own.

The update is a little late, but I still shamelessly ask for recommendation votes!
