Konoha's task master

The next day, Yakumo got up on time.

Wash, brush your teeth, and bring your weapons.

Because he was under surveillance by the Anbu, he could only make breakfast miserablely and could no longer exploit the shadow clone's labor force.

Simple hot milk, bread, fried eggs.

After dinner... Yakumo went out and met Masako Mori.

"Good morning, Yakumo."

"Morning, Masako Mori."

Yakumo thought for a while...and said.

"About tomorrow, I will follow Lord Jiraiya to leave Konoha to carry out the mission."

"Where to go?" Mori Masako asked lightly.

"Not sure yet, I will pay attention to safety."

Yakumo avoided Masako Mori's eyes and answered.

The confidence is slightly lacking.

"Okay...I'll wait for you to come back in Konoha."

Masako Mori answered with a smile.

But Yakumo could sense that her heart was sad.

"Okay." Yakumo replied.

The final exam of each grade in the Ninja School will attract the attention of Konoha's top management. If someone stands out in the exam, it is very likely that the top management will recruit him in advance and determine him as a training target.

For example, Namikaze Minato had already practiced with Jiraiya while he was in school. For example, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade had already practiced with Sarutobi Hiruzen before graduation.

On the other hand, civilian ninjas with less talent are likely to be invested in advance by major ninja clans and eventually become vassals of the ninja clan.

This exam was conducted at the large training ground behind the teaching building. The most important thing was that there were no restrictions on the use of weapons. It could be said to be a collision between geniuses.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Yakumo. He has obtained the exemption qualification granted by Sarutobi Hiruzen himself. He came here today just to take a look at Masako Mori's examination process and Uchiha Obito's progress during this period.

"Brother, are you here...?"

Obito Uchiha waved to Yakumo enthusiastically and motioned for Yakumo to sit next to him. The classmates around him looked at him slightly... the lucky man who was accepted as a disciple by Tsunade-sama because of his outstanding talent in medical ninjutsu.

"Come on." Yakumo took Masako Mori's right hand and sat next to Uchiha Obito, looking at the training ground in front of him.

There is a red carpet on the high platform not far away, and eight wooden chairs are placed behind the long table. The backs of the wooden chairs have patterns on them, representing their identities.

Senju clan, Uchiha, Hinata, Hokage, Roots, ANBU, Finance Department, Medical Department.

The people corresponding to those positions are... Tsunade, Uchiha Fugaku, Hinata Hizashi, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Hatake Sakumo, Mito Kadoen, and Koharu Koharu.

Three of the eight highest seats in Konoha are occupied by Sarutobi Hiruzen and Yuhi's teammates, forming the strongest interest alliance with them to control 80% of the power of Konoha Hidden Village.

"Chief Fugaku, you asked me about the details of the assassination against Kakashi, but I did not reveal your strength to him." Uchiha Obito said in a low voice.

Yakumo hugged Uchiha Obito.

"Thank you." He said sincerely.

"You're welcome, we are brothers!"

Uchiha Obito laughed in response.

"Yes, we are brothers." Yakumo repeated.

After a while, Hatake Kakashi sat next to the two people with a ninja sword on his back, and next to him sat Hatake Sakumo.

"Uncle Sakumo, you should sit on the high platform."

Yakumo reminded.

"As a father, I came to take part in my son's final exam, and I should be sitting here."

Hearing this, Kakashi Hatake's eyes burst into joy.

Around nine o'clock, senior officials began to arrive one after another.

The seat of the Senju clan was empty, and on the chair of the Uchiha clan sat Uchiha Fugaku, who had fierce eyes and always had a straight face. Sitting on the chair of the Hyuga clan was the younger version of Hinata Hibiscus, and behind him stood a man wearing a ninja forehead protector.

Young man...Hyuga Hizashi.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Koharu, and Mito Kaden arrived almost at the same time, and as the three of them sat down...

First grade...the final exam has officially begun!

What surprised Yakumo was... Danzo was absent.

The dull head teacher walked onto the training field...

First, bow to the rostrum...

"Please give a speech by the Third Hokage."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and took off his godly robe.

"Good morning, kids, I am Hiruzen Sarutobi..."

"You are the future of Konoha, I hope..."

"We will risk our lives to protect your growth..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen preached loudly and passionately, and the students' eyes became more and more enthusiastic. Yakumo took out his notes and started recording.

By the way, do the daily tasks and enjoy yourself.

Hatake Sakumo snorted coldly.

Half an hour later, the first-grade class teacher explained the rules and regulations of this final exam.

"This exam adopts a rotation challenge system."

"Challenge from back to front. If you defeat your opponent, you can continue to challenge. If you fail, you will lose the qualification to challenge."

"The test results will be graded by the Hokage himself."

"The grades are divided into excellent, excellent, excellent, good and poor."

"This exam is not limited to fighting methods."

“I hope the students will do what they can!”

"Finally, I wish you all good luck in martial arts!"

After the exam started... the student at the end started to challenge, but in less than three seconds... he was defeated.

It's just... novices pecking each other.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuanjiantai challenged one after another.

Until Pinggu Yuanchu stood up and bowed slightly.

"Teacher, I challenge Jing Yakumo."

During this time, he practiced diligently...

Just to... avenge the shame!!

"What a pity..." Yakumo shook his head and stood up...

"I reject."

Pinggu was stunned at first, how could he refuse?

"What qualifications do you have to refuse!?" Pinggu Yuanchu asked.

"This is the reward given to me by the Third Hokage!"

"If you don't accept it, ask the Third Hokage!"

Yakumo sat down and said confidently.

The head teacher turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen on the high platform.

The latter nodded.

"Let's challenge someone else." The head teacher said.

"Why..." Pinggu Yuanchu growled.

"Then I challenge...Uchiha Obito!"

"Since you are afraid of fighting, then I will beat your brother!"

"...Is it okay?" Yakumo asked.

"Just in time, Yakumo, let you see my recent improvement!" Uchiha Obito assured, patting his chest.

"Okay..." Yakumo replied.

"No problem... Obito's strength is not weak."

Masako Mori comforted her in a low voice.

In the training ground, the two faced each other.

"Better the Seal of Opposition."

Printed into…

Hiratani clenched his fists and rushed towards Uchiha Obito.

"Next... is my magnificent performance!"

Uchiha Obito screamed softly and clenched his fists.

He looked at Nohara Lin from the corner of his eye.

Found his goddess peeking at Kakashi...

Uchiha Obito... his fist became hard.

Hiratani took the initiative to attack, but Obito easily dodged it. Then Obito quickly punched Hiratani in the shoulder of his right arm, and the chakra penetrated into his body like a nail, and was as hot as fire.

Pinggu Yuan's expression changed continuously...

A look of pain appeared.

This crane tail seems a bit fierce!

"ha…"

Obito Uchiha made a lightning move and grabbed Hiratani Haru's right arm, and used both arms to slam Hiratani Haru to the ground.

Pinggu just wanted to admit defeat...

The fists like raindrops have already arrived...

"I heard that you... look down on my brother!?"

Bump...bump...bump...!!!

Pinggu Yuanchu... was in a coma.
