Chapter 322： The third exam begins

Chapter 322 The third exam begins

August 5th, the Chunin Examination officially begins.

The third test of the Chunin Examination was held in a huge circular venue.

In the middle of the venue is a huge open space with a large area. There are also small patches of trees and a pond with a small amount of water. All candidates will fight here.

In addition to the candidates' fighting space, there is an auditorium rising up the stairs. Among them are many noble officials and wealthy business clients, as well as local residents of Konoha and ninjas.

The Third Hokage does not sit in the ordinary auditorium. He has his own special seat, which is one level higher than the auditorium.

“There are so many spectators.” Nohara Lin sighed as she looked at the sea of ​​people in the auditorium.

Before this, the most lively activities that Nohara Lin had participated in were festivals, but there were not so many people.

"Xiao Lin, don't be nervous. If you use your strength well, you will definitely win." Obito thought that Nohara Lin was worried that losing with more people would look bad, so he comforted her.

Nohara Lin covered her mouth and chuckled: "Obito, you are looking down on me. I won't get nervous just because I'm watching the battle."

Nohara Lin is not the kind of shy and timid girl. She will be worried about the result because of the strength of her opponent, but she will not be nervous because someone is watching.

“Hehe, that’s good.” Obito scratched his head and laughed.

Obito doesn't care about the audience anymore. The more people there are, the more excited he becomes. This is a good opportunity to become famous in Konoha.

“Hurry up, it’s almost time.” Kakashi reminded him.

Obito and Nohara Rin both nodded, and the three of them quickened their pace and walked into the center of the venue through the passage specially prepared for candidates, which is also the battle venue for candidates.

The three of them arrived neither early nor late. Three minutes after they arrived, all sixteen candidates arrived.

Looking at all the candidates arriving, some spectators cheered, as if they were looking forward to the next battle.

“Have you heard, the audience’s shouts are all for you, you are the protagonists today.” Beiliuhu said with a smile.

Listening to Biruhu's words, Obito's heart surged. If he could get first place under the spotlight, this would be his first step towards becoming the Hokage.

With a confident smile on his face, Metkai gave a thumbs up to a green figure jumping excitedly in the audience.

Terumi Mei clenched her pink fist tightly. By winning this first place, she would be taken seriously by the Genshi and the Mizukage, and the path to becoming a Mizukage would become clear.

Zabuza glanced at Kakashi, who was only a few steps behind him, with a complicated expression. If he won, his opponent in the second round would be Kakashi.

Zabuza didn’t know how to fight in order to win, and the opponent even chopped down his mentoring Jonin.

"The rules of the third test are very simple. They are the same as the preliminaries. If you beat your opponent until he is unable to fight or until he surrenders, you will win." Beiliuhu continued.

“If there is no doubt, except for Candidate No. 1 and Candidate No. 2 who are staying behind to prepare for the battle, other candidates please return to the lounge and wait for notification.”

The battle in the venue can also be seen from the lounge, so it does not affect the candidates' individual gathering of intelligence.

The rules were so simple that naturally no examinee asked any questions. They walked into the examinee passage and headed to the lounge together, leaving only No. 1 Mikigaki Kisame and No. 2 Yamashiro Aoba.

Migaki Kisame stood there with an expressionless face. There were only two people he cared about in this exam, one was Metkai and Hatake Kakashi. In other exams, he felt that he had no problem.

Compared to the indifferent Kisame, Yamashiro Aoba was not so calm. He looked at Kisame with an expression as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

He has seen the performance of Inikasaki Kisame in the preliminaries, and he is considered to be the strongest group of candidates.

Beiliuhu asked the two people to stand at the designated position, then waited for about a minute and then shouted loudly:

“The first game, Inigaki Kisame vs. Yamashiro Aoba, the battle begins!”

The loudspeaker equipment carried Bei Liuhu's voice to the entire venue, and the spectators who were chatting turned their attention to the battle field.

“This Kisaki Kisame is a ninja from Kirigakure Village. Although we are both members of the Five Great Ninja Villages, we rarely hear about Kirigakure.” said an audience member wearing official attire.

"After all, Kirigakure Village is in the Kingdom of Water, so coming to the mainland will be more troublesome..." another official said.

"However, there are differences among the five major ninja villages. Our ninjas from the Land of Fire should be stronger."

The officials next to him nodded in agreement. This was not only because Konoha was the ninja village of the Land of Fire, but also because Konoha had a strong record of winning battles.

Although the audience has confidence in Yamashiro Aoba, this cannot erase the gap between Yamashiro Aoba and Inigaki Kisame.

The moment Heiryu started shouting, Yamashiro Aoba immediately retreated and used ninjutsu to summon a large number of crows.

Wow—Wow—

The crow’s rough and hoarse call instantly spread throughout the venue.

A large number of crows were circling around Yamashiro Aoba, disturbing Kisame's vision and hearing.

Hush!

Yamashiro Aoba immediately threw out several shurikens and attacked Kisame Akisaki. Kisame held the long sword and chopped off the shuriken with a casual slash. Then he directly inserted the sword into the ground and quickly formed seals in his hand.

“Water Release·Exploding Water Wave!”

 Kisame gathered a large amount of chakra and then changed the nature of the water attribute chakra, spitting out a huge amount of water and rushing towards the mountain city Aoba.

Yamashiro Aoye frowned and quickly backed away, and ordered the crow to fly higher.

The amount of water in Kisame's body was too great, and soon the entire battle field was turned into a large pond by Kisame's water escape. Yamashiro Aoba escaped the impact of the water flow, but he could only be forced to stand on the water and fight with the oncoming ghost. Shark fight.

Bang bang!

The two sides fought for a while, and even if there were crows disturbing the mountain city Qingye, they were beaten back steadily.

This limited-field battle is too unfavorable for Yamashiro Aoba. Kisame can dive into the water at any time to avoid the crow's attack, but Yamashiro Aoba has no good way to deal an effective blow to Kisame.

"What a great draw." Yamashiro Aoba felt a little helpless. He just happened to be practicing Fire Release, but was restrained by Kisame Water Release.

“He’s quite capable, not too weak.” After a few rounds of fighting, Kisame discovered that Yamashiro Aoba was much stronger than expected.

Although there is nothing outstanding, Yamashiro Aoba can be considered good in all aspects.

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Since there was enough water in the venue at this moment, Kisame didn't spend much chakra to condense a huge water dragon and hit it at Yamashiro Aoba. The crow that interfered with his sight was instantly rushed away by the huge water dragon.

"Fire Release: High Fireball Technique!" Yamashiro Aoba made the final struggle. He first spit out a high fire ball to block the incoming water dragon bomb, then controlled the remaining crows to block his body, and then Yamashiro Aoba himself held his breath and dived into the water. Swimming towards Kisame quickly.

But Yamashiro Aoba underestimated Kisame's professionalism as a Kirigakure ninja. Even though Yamashiro Aoba was very careful not to cause any noise, and had a fireball to cover up the sound of water dragon bombs colliding with him, Kisame still discovered Yamashiro falling into the water. green leaves.

 Kisame pretended not to notice, and the moment Yamashiro Aoba got closer, he suddenly dived into the water and started fighting with Yamashiro Aoba.

 

A large amount of water flow exploded, and Yamashiro Aoba was directly knocked out of the water by Kisame's full force and flew out.

This is not over yet, under the control of Kisame, a stream of water rushes straight towards the mountain city Aoba that has not yet landed.

boom!

Under the impact of the water flow, Yamashiro Aoba directly hit the wall at the edge of the battle field.

For ordinary people watching the battle, this did not last long. They only felt that Kisame used a water escape venue and suddenly turned into a large pond. Then the two fists and kicks fought twice, water escape and fire escape collided, and then Yamashiro Ao Ye was knocked against the wall, and the whole process only took a few minutes.

“It seems that this person is an outstanding ninja from Kirigakure Village and cannot be measured by the standards of ordinary ninjas.” The official who had previously said that the ninjas of the Land of Fire must be strong said while stroking his beard without any embarrassment on his face.

"Yes, after all, Kirigakure must have sent the strongest genius in his ninja village when he came all the way." The official next to him agreed.

"I didn't expect Kirigakure's ninjas to be so strong. I wonder how efficient their delegation is." Kisame's strong performance made some wealthy businessmen on the field recognize Kirigakure's strength.

The Kirigakure smiled when they heard this, but the expressions of the Konoha ninjas in the audience were not very good, and they lost the first game.

Danzo, who was sitting on the right side of Hiruzen Sarutobi, frowned when he saw this scene, with a look of displeasure on his face.

Although with his eyesight he could see that it was not Yamashiro Aoba who was weak but Kisame who was too strong, in Danzo's eyes losing on such an important occasion would be an embarrassment to Konoha and should not be done.

The Genshi sitting on the left side of Sarutobi Hiruzen only showed a faint smile. He didn't say anything and didn't smile too happily.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not frown or smile. He stared at the field with a normal expression, making it impossible to see through his inner thoughts.

"Kisaki Kisame wins!" After discovering that Yamashiro Aoba had lost the ability to fight, Hirohu neatly declared Kisame the winner.

After Beiruhu announced the result, a medical ninja quickly took Yamashiro Aoba for treatment, while Kisame walked towards the lounge.

"Xiao Lin, come on." Seeing the end of the first game, Obito cheered Nohara Lin.

"You can use more water escape at the beginning. You will have a field advantage in front of you." Kakashi walked to Nohara Lin and reminded him softly.

Although there is a drainage system on the battle site, it is obviously not very good. Although the amount of water is constantly decreasing and is not as much as before, it is still a favorable environment for Nohara Lin.

Of course, if the battle drags on for too long, it will definitely be over.

“Yes.” Nohara Lin smiled and nodded at the two of them.

"The second battle, Nohara Rin vs. Nara Mizuno, candidates please enter quickly." Beiruhu's voice came into the lounge.

Nohara Lin waved goodbye to the two of them and walked towards the battle site.

“Midori will cheer you up.” Inuzuka Midori also cheered for Nara Shimizu, who was about to fight.

Nara Shimizu nodded and turned around to walk towards the venue.

Although he went to Mu Yue for special training and failed to collect information about Nohara Lin, his physical skills were improved slightly there.
