Son of the Fourth Hokage of Konoha

August 6, Konoha 60, was the day when the third competition of the Joint Chuunin Examination officially began.

This morning, after the Naruto family had a hearty breakfast early, they dispersed.

As Hokage, Minato needs to take charge of the overall situation and receive some VIPs, including the Fourth Kazekage whose account has been hacked.

Although Minato and Kushina both have sensory ninjutsu, they can't confirm whether the Kazekage is Orochimaru's fake one. It may be because he has changed his skin many times. Since chakra is composed of physical energy and mental energy, Orochimaru's Chakra

Carat may have been different from before.

Kushina needs to go to the barrier class to confirm the barrier again, and then also go to the arena to watch the battle.

After two days of training, Kimimaro had almost recovered. He followed the three Guapi teammates to morning exercises according to the route drawn by Minato, but he actually took on the task of patrolling.

As we all know, the Guapi Team passes by various places in Konoha every day. Even tourists are used to this, so they should be the least noticeable patrol team...

Shiro and Konoha stayed at home, because although they decided to continue to be ninjas in the future, Haku had not yet been officially incorporated into Konoha's ninja team, and Konoha still needed to make up for the foundation. So in the case of a possible war in Konoha

, it would be better for them to stay at home. As for why they don’t go to the shelter... Just kidding, after the barrier at home is activated, the defense capability is no worse than that of the shelter.

Needless to say, Naruto was going to participate in the competition as a player. By the way, he separated four shadow clones and went to the four directions of Konoha, southeast, northwest, and planned to be responsible for liaison work. Although his father may have arranged for the Yamanaka clan, it was better to be prepared.

Anyway, it's just a waste of chakra at most.

Neighboring countries that have alliances with the Fire Nation, or countries that are allies in name but actually younger brothers, have sent important figures to watch the game.

Since Naruto went there earlier, the auditorium was empty when he arrived at the arena. It looked like a duel arena or a head-touching arena in some money-making mobile game. I wonder if he could touch Gaara's head during the fight.

Genma was the only one in the lounge, holding a thousand books in his mouth and looking handsome.

"Brother Xuanjian, are you the examiner today?" Naruto greeted.

"Naruto, you're here really early. The examiner is indeed me, and I won't give you any trouble." Genma said while biting the Senbon, which shook and felt like it might fall off at any time.

"That doesn't matter. I'm just curious. Do you really not have a sister named Mai Shiranui?"

Genma, whose full name is Shiranui Genma, is one of the members of the Shadow Guards. Naruto has met him many times and is familiar with him. He and Iwahi are similar, and together they are called the Genma Team. They can use the flying thunder formation.

Technique - Since the Flying Thunder God Technique is too difficult to learn, Minato improved it so that the three of them could work together to perform it, but still only a few of them learned it.

"You've asked me many times. I really don't have a sister, let alone Mai Shiranui." Genma replied helplessly, but this name is not bad. If you have a daughter in the future, you can consider using this name. It seems

Naruto's naming is much more normal than the Yondaime's naming.

(Sarutobi Laifuku, who failed to challenge Grandpa with Frostmourne the day before yesterday, said you are too naive.)

"Where's Brother Hayate?" Naruto remembered that he hadn't been beaten to death before he had time to retaliate against him.

"He has other tasks." Genma thought to himself, on such an important occasion, of course you can't send a person who keeps coughing as the examiner. It would affect Konoha's image too much, but it was hard to say this to Naruto.

Damn it, why can a guy like Hayate have a girlfriend.

After chatting with Xuanjian for a while, we finally waited for the first friend to arrive.

"Hey, Shikamaru, you're here so early? Where's Choji?" Naruto asked.

"As for Choji, because he was too nervous last night, he ate a lot and ended up with a bad stomach. He is still in the hospital."

Why did Shikamaru come so early? Because he had clearly calculated the time in the morning and wanted to lie down at home for a while, but his mother nagged him a few words. His father helped explain, but his mother also complained, "What are you talking about?"

The lazy Nara family is really hopeless. According to my mother's habits, I estimate that she and my father will be kicked out of the house in five minutes, so I might as well come out early.

As for why I didn't explain it to Naruto, it was because it was too troublesome.

"Huh?" Naruto couldn't laugh or cry when he learned that Choji was going to be absent. Okay, this is very Choji. If Ya knew that Choci had missed the finals for this reason after defeating him, he didn't know if he would be so angry that he would shut himself up.

Next, the contestants arrived one after another, and the audience entered. Hinata was sitting in the audience area with Hizashi, Hizashi, and Hanabi. The other juniors who failed to qualify for the finals were also in the audience area.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was wearing the dress specially prepared for him by Lake Biwa, standing behind Minato as the Third Hokage, preparing to watch the ceremony and retire. He still had to show up on such an occasion.

Looking at the Kazekage walking up to the stands, Minato greeted, "Yondaime Kazekage, you've had a hard journey."

The Kazekage looked at Minato, then took a deep look at the Third Hokage behind Minato, and said: "The Fourth Hokage has been famous for a long time. The Third Hokage seems to be in good health."

"Although I'm old, I still want to watch the seedlings of Konoha grow up." The third generation thought he was just being polite. Seeing that most of the candidates in the field were Konoha candidates, he felt happy. It was true that he chose Minato in the first place.

is right.

"It's almost time, let's get started." Minato said, walking to the stage and saying with great energy:

"Thank you all distinguished guests for coming to watch the Chunin Exams. The third exam will officially begin!"

"Oh~" There was a huge cheer from the audience.

Genjian looked at the candidates, took out a piece of paper and said to the eight contestants in front of him: "Everyone is here. Toss and Sak from the Sound Ninja Village are late for no reason and will be regarded as abandoning the exam.

Akimichi Choji was absent from the exam due to illness, so your battle order has also undergone some changes, please reconfirm your respective opponents."

Naruto looked at the list. The first game was Sasuke versus Lee, the second game was Neji versus Kankuro, the third game was himself versus Gaara, and the fourth game was Shikamaru versus Shino.

Seeing that the candidates had read the list, Genma said: "Then Uchiha Sasuke and Rock Lee who are fighting in the first battle will stay, and the others will go to the rest area."

The candidates left the exam one after another. Naruto was a step behind and looked up at the weather - it was sunny. Looking at Sasuke's cool expression, he thought, this kid is not going to get beaten, right?

So Naruto specially reminded Sasuke: "Don't underestimate the enemy, Sasuke, be careful of overturning."
