Today is a special day.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
After several years of difficult training, Kimimaro and others finally ushered in the final big test. Whether they can become Genin depends on how they perform today.
The training ground for the assessment is not the big stage of the Divine Tree, but an open area outside Kirigakure, which is ten times larger than the general training ground.
Here, all the disciples participating in the assessment can use their abilities to the fullest. Whether it is their Kekkei Genkai, the curse mark, or even the tail beast transformation, they are all powers that are allowed to be used.
Their goal is only one: to defeat the Kisame's shadow clone, to prove that their hard work over the years has not been in vain.
'Woohoo.'
In the open space, a gust of cold wind blew, and the disciples stood in a row, with serious expressions on everyone's faces, as if they were soldiers who were being reviewed and were about to enter the battlefield.
The heartbeats of the boys and girls accelerated, and their hearts were uneasy, and the surroundings were so quiet that they could only hear the voices of everyone swallowing because of their nervousness.
"Are you all ready, let's get started."
Kisame's eyes swept across the crowd, and finally fell on Kimimaro, and ordered, "Kimimaro, you come first."
Kimimaro walked out of the line without saying a word, he bowed to Kisame's shadow clone, and instantly attacked.
ten minutes later.
"Dance of the Seedling Fern!"
With Kimimaro's loud shout, countless sharp bone spurs emerged from the ground, instantly forming a dense forest of bone spurs, covering most of the training ground.
'Peng!'
Kisame's shadow clone was unable to avoid it, submerged by bone spurs, it disappeared into a cloud of white smoke.
After a while, the bone spurs formed by Chakra gradually disappeared, and the training ground returned to its original appearance.
"Ho ho"
Kimimaro panted heavily, sweat slipping from his forehead and dripped on the ground.
"You are not bad to have defeated my shadow clone with the power of the Shikotsumyaku alone." Kisame walked up to him and commented, announcing that Kimimaro passed the assessment.
On the sidelines, the rest of the teenagers were surprised and full of admiration for Kimimaro.
During the battle just now, Kimimaro was in danger for a while under the continuous attack of the shadow clone, but he insisted on using only the power of his Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku, and did not use the curse mark, the Sharingan or the nine tails.
"Hmph, what is so great about it, I can do it too."
Deidara snorted, crossing his chest with his arms and looking unconvinced.
As a result, Kisame called him: "Didara, you are next."
"I am coming."
When Deidara heard that he is next, his eyes lit up, and when he passed by Kimimaro, who was coming back, he cast a provocative look at the latter.
Another ten minutes passed.
"C4 Garuda!"
In the training ground, Deidara roared and spit out a mass of explosive clay from his mouth. After landing, he quickly formed a puppet exactly like himself.
Immediately afterwards, the doll quickly swelled to a height of more than ten meters, and suddenly wrapped Kisame's shadow clone in its stomach.
This trick is the ultimate bomb developed by Deidara. It can no longer blow up a village like C3, but consists of countless extremely small clay spider bombs, which can be absorbed into the body.
It's a microbomb at the cellular level.
At this moment, Kisame's clone that was swallowed by Garuda had thousands of small explosions in its body at the same time, and was completely destroyed from the inside to the outside.
"Haha, I won! My art is really invincible!"
Deidara jumped up, excitedly forgetting his injury, and as a result, he was suddenly dizzy, fell to the ground with a bang, and passed out in a coma.
However, he still fulfilled his promise. He did not use the curse mark or the power of the four tails in his body, but passed the assessment only on the art of his own explosion.
'Whoosh.'
Karin rushed into the court, checked Deidara's injury, and brought him to the sidelines to treat him.
Then, Toneri said to Hinata with a solemn look: "Hinata-sama, I will definitely fulfill my mission to protect you and prevent you from any harm!"
When Hinata heard this, her face flushed, and she was moved when she looked at Toneri who had no eyes in front of her.
"Let's work hard together!" Yamato stretched out a hand to cheer for the two team members.
"Yeah!" Hinata and Toneri nodded heavily, and put their hands on Yamato's hands in turn. The fourth team seemed to be off to a good start.
However, some people are happy and some are sad.
In contrast, the three guys in the third team were the ones who were the most unhappy about the division.
"Sensei is too partial, why are Kimimaro's teammates so strong, and my teammates are two trash?"
When they heard Diedara, Suigetsu immediately jumped up and protested loudly.
"Who are you calling trash, bastard!"
Suigetsu was immediately unhappy, he waved his fists and shouting at Deidara, "If you have the guts, come fight me and see if I don't beat you to the ground."
"Stop arguing."
Jugo, the peaceful boy, looked at the two who were caught in a quarrel, and persuaded anxiously. However, everyone present knew that if he started going crazy, no one really could stop him.
At this moment, the cold eyes of Kisame and Tsunade locked at the three of them in unison, and they were shocked and closed their mouths turning pale.
Tsunade despised these guys for causing her a headache and making her unpleasant mood even more irritable.
As for Kisame, he said to them without hesitation:
"That's right, I'm biased. The members of the first team are the strongest, because Kimimaro, Haku and Karin chose me a few years ago, they will always be my most valued disciples. As for the third team, before you three guys complain about your teammates, think about yourself. I put you three weirdos together so that you won't harm others."
After hearing that, the three shut their mouths.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Kisame asked Tsunade, seeing her cold face and was ignoring him, he announced to everyone that they were disbanding, "Let's all go back to rest. At eight o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, Gather on the big stage of the sacred tree, I have prepared for you your first mission after becoming a Genin."
After speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared from the training ground.
Tsunade frowned and left quietly. She had to find him to settle the bill in person, otherwise this would go too far.
"Have a mission the day after tomorrow? Great!"
Deidara cheered up and even jumped in front of Kimimaro and shouted to the latter, "Kimimaro, just wait for me. Even if there are two waste teammates, I will take the lead in completing the task and defeat you! "
"Boring."
Kimimaro shook his head, turned to Haku and Karin and said, "Let's go back quickly and tell Mother the good news of us becoming Genin."
After that, he left with his two teammates.
"Damn!" Deidara was so angry that he even summoned a clay bird, mounted it and flew into the sky, leaving the two teammates to look at each other in dismay.
The second and fourth teams also left one after another.
The crowd quickly dispersed.
Two days later, Kirigakure 12 gathered on the big stage of the sacred tree on time, waiting for Kisame to issue a mission to them.
"The first task is to go to the Land of Demons, destroy the rebels who used dark ninjutsu and bring back the Shrine Maiden Shion and the sealed monster named Moryo."
Kisame took out a bag containing mission information, gave a brief explanation, and then glanced over, stopping on Yamato, Hinata and Toneri, "The fourth team, this mission is up to you."
"Yes."
Yamato, the squad leader, stepped forward, respectfully took the scroll with both hands, and then returned to his teammates to discuss it carefully with them.
Kisame took out the second copy and continued:
"The second mission is to track down the Flying fortress of Land of Sky hidden in the virgin forest in the eastern part of the Land of Fire, and bring the castle to Kirigakure. This task is handed over to the third shift to complete."
After he finished speaking, he threw the piece into Deidara's hand, and specifically told him, "Remember, the fortress should be brought back as intact as possible, understand?"
"I will definitely complete the mission!"
Deidara patted his chest and said with assurance. He had heard the deeds of the guys in that place, and this task was a piece of cake for him.
