The remaining fire sword of Konoha

Chapter 149 The third round of assessment

The day after the fireworks show, Konoha's largest competition venue ushered in the third round of individual battles for the Joint Chunin Examination.

At this time, all the genin who participated in the assessment had already prepared at the side of the arena, waiting for the official start of the competition.

Audiences from all over the country have already taken their seats in the auditorium of the competition venue, waiting with anticipation.

Amid everyone's attention, the daimyo of the Fire Country and the daimyo of the Wind Country came to their exclusive seats with the best viewing angles.

Under the names are the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato and the Fourth Hokage Rasa.

In the original work, during the Chunin Examination, the Fourth Kazekage was impersonated by Orochimaru and covered his face with a scarf.

However, the current Fourth Kazekage is himself, so he does not wear a hijab, but shows his true appearance.

At this time, the two daimyo and the two shadows were heavily guarded, and they were all guarded by powerful ninjas.

Yusuke was also awarded the position of counselor minister by the Daimyo in the Country of Fire. At this moment, he was sitting next to the Daimyo of the Country of Fire, chatting and laughing with him.

Since there are still about 90 candidates left at this time, in order to complete all the competitions within one day, the competition field is divided into four areas. Before the top eight candidates are determined, the competitions will be held in the four areas at the same time.

Only after the top eight are determined, the remaining duels will proceed one by one. The competition after the quarterfinals is what all the viewers are most looking forward to.

The system of the competition is completely a knockout system. Two genin are then selected to compete. If they lose one game, they will be eliminated. Therefore, there is also a certain element of luck.

However, the selection of chunin is not entirely based on final results. If a player is eliminated midway, but performs well during the battle and shows extraordinary strength, he can still pass the assessment and become a chuunin.

The examiner for this assessment is Izumi. Her powerful teleportation technique can ensure the safety of the genin in the competition field to the greatest extent.

Before the top eight were decided, there were four competition arenas where ninja battles were held at the same time. Therefore, in addition to Izumi, who was the chief examiner, there were four deputy examiners in charge of the four competition arenas.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Minato, the Fourth Hokage, as the host, stood up and delivered an official speech, encouraging all contestants to compete with their level and style in the competition, and wishing everyone good results.

After finishing her speech, Quanmei announced that the third round of assessment had officially begun.

The electronic screen above the competition arena began to continuously display the opponents who were selected for the competition. And when the two genin fight to determine the winner, the screen will also display the result.

Because of the large number of people, the same genin may have to fight more than once before the top eight are decided.

However, in order to make the competition fair, relevant settings have been made in the process of selecting contestants. When selecting genin for the competition, only the ninja with the least number of battles will be selected first.

Ninja battles are usually very fast, and victory or defeat is often only an instant.

Even in the original work, it only took one night for Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura and Kakashi to fight Otsutsuki in the Fourth Ninja War.

Situations like Senju Hashirama and Madara fighting for three days and three nights, or the Third Raikage fighting ten thousand Iwagakure ninjas for three days and three nights, are just extremely rare cases.

In the case of two-by-two battles in four arenas, basically four groups of opponents can decide the winner every ten minutes. Even if there is time for the players to rest, one morning is enough to determine the top eight genin.

As the competition continued, the outstanding performances of many ninjas attracted the attention of all viewers.

For example, Kurama Yakumo's powerful genjutsu that crushes his opponents, Gaara's terrifyingly destructive sand on both offense and defense, Yota's ninjutsu that controls the ever-changing weather, Chojuro's weird-looking but powerful double-knife genjutsu, and so on.

These very distinctive ninjutsu or fighting styles made the audience excited and looked forward to the top eight battle in the afternoon.

As the competitions ended one after another, contestants continued to be eliminated. As noon approached, all the elimination rounds in the morning were also over.

The final eight selected ninjas were Kurama Yakumo, Gaara, Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, Omoi, Hyuga Neji, Kurotsuchi and Fu.

Unfortunately, Youta took the initiative to admit defeat because of his encounter with Kurama Yakumo, and Chojuro of Kirigakure Village also used his defeat in the duel with Kurotsuchi to illustrate the meaning of the phrase "water comes to cover".

Some other outstanding ninjas, such as Xia Ang of Hoshigakure Village, Atsui and Karui of Kumogakure Village, Xiao Li of Konoha, etc. also lost due to encountering strong enemies.

In the afternoon, Izumi, as the examiner, began to preside over the battle between the remaining eight top players, and the remaining battles will also take place one by one.

As the names continued to rotate on the big screen, the hearts of all the spectators and players present were in suspense.

"Uchiha Sasuke versus Uzumaki Naruto!"

Immediately after taking it out, Yusuke, who was sitting next to the Fire Country Daimyo, couldn't laugh or cry.

He didn't know what to say other than that the two were destined rivals.

Sasuke and Naruto, who were originally sitting together, looked at each other and came to the competition venue together.

When Izumi saw the two little guys, she announced the start of the competition with a smile.

Before announcing, Izumi winked at Sasuke. After all, he is a descendant of his own family, so of course Izumi still hopes that Sasuke can win.

Seeing Sasuke on the stage, Itachi, who was standing far outside the audience, also paid some attention to the battle between Sasuke and Naruto.

"Sasuke, although you are my subordinate, I will not let you offend me here!" Naruto folded his arms and shouted loudly.

Sasuke, who was posing with his hands in his pants pockets, was furious when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I become your subordinate!"

Naruto laughed and said, "Don't forget that when we registered our team for the Chunin Exam, I was the captain. As a team member, you are naturally my subordinate."

"That was just a coin toss and you won. Besides, you said that after becoming captain, you would treat Yuta and I to ramen, but you haven't done so yet." Sasuke's appearance was no longer concave at this time, and he took out ramen from his pockets with both hands. He came out and clenched his fists, obviously feeling very unhappy.

The voices of the two of them were neither too loud nor too small. There were many ninjas with excellent hearing among the audience, and they burst into laughter when they heard the conversation between the two.

Outside the court, Yu Tai also covered his face with both hands, feeling that he was too embarrassed to be a teammate of these two people. Xiao Li next to him patted his shoulder comfortingly.

At this time, Izumi coughed twice and looked at Naruto and Sasuke with a dangerous look.

The two of them felt the murderous look in Izumi's eyes, and immediately stopped bickering, and started to get ready for a showdown.
