Red sand dust

While Daimaru and Kankuro were chatting, the match between Chi and Kabuto Yakushi had already begun.

Kabuto Yakushi is over 20 years old this year. Although he is not young anymore, most of the candidates taking the Chunin Exam are of this age group.

Don't think it's normal just because it's a year of talent spurts, when newcomers aged 12 or 13 beat their senior brothers and even their senior uncles to a pulp.

Umino Iruka was promoted to chunin at the age of sixteen. This is an example of fair strength and relatively good luck. Most Konoha ninjas are promoted to chunin at around the age of twenty.

Because of this, it was surprising that Konoha Genin Classes 7, 8, and 10 took part in the Chunin Exams as newcomers.

Of course, Yakushi Kabuto's situation is certainly not normal.

After watching the fight between Sen and Yakushi Kabuto for a while, Kankuro frowned and said:

That Konoha ninja named Yakushi Kabuto is a bit strange.

Although he looked embarrassed, he actually didn't suffer much damage. He felt like he was a little exhausted, but he didn't fall down.

Weird ninjas are everywhere, and there is no shortage of this one!

Daimaru felt that there was something wrong with Qian's fighting method, he was obviously too anxious!

Although whether he could win the fight or not depended entirely on Kabuto Yakushi's willingness to give in, his attitude was too persistent and completely disrupted his rhythm.

The offensive tactics of combining illusion and physical skills require calm thinking. Once you mess up your position, you will be led by your opponent.

You're too eager to show off!

Originally he was just forced to take the chunin exam, Daimaru couldn't remember when Qian was so ambitious and wanted to be promoted to chunin.

Qian, who was getting more and more anxious in his heart, panted and looked at Yakushi Kabuto, who also looked exhausted. He didn't even have time to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and stepped forward again, waving the white velvet iron fan with both hands to attack.

Aren't you still willing to give up? If you compete with me physically, you can't win!

Kabuto Yakushi's performance is still going on, but his patience for this battle has almost reached its limit.

Hurry up and admit defeat. Wouldn't it be better to find someone better to deal with?

Promotion or something...

A slash missed, Qian staggered a few times with too much force, and said reluctantly,

Beating you is worth more.

Oh? You don't look like a fighting maniac who is obsessed with victory. Do you want to show your courage in front of someone?

Nothing to do with you!

It's really admirable, but it's a pity that I chose the wrong opponent!

Without a moment's delay, he dodged the flailing Yakushi Kabuto, held up his glasses while still holding on to his strength, and took advantage of the chance of passing by to grab Qian's arm, twist it behind his back, and press a kunai against Qian's throat.

I won!

No matter how reluctant Qian Zai was, he was still defeated simply.

Winner, Kabuto Yakushi!

Moonlight Blast announced the result,

So, Sand Ninja Sen, do you want to continue the challenge? Once you have chosen your opponent, you will have ten minutes to rest!

No matter what, there is at most one more competition, and this boringly long third early selection is finally coming to an end.

I want to challenge Konoha ninja Nara Shikamaru!

As he spoke, Qian pointed his fan in the direction of the Konoha ninja.

Sure enough, I still can't escape.

Nara Shikamaru spat lightly and tightened the bandage on his arm.

The Nara clan, who are famous for their medicine business, will certainly not be short of various secret medicines, but the time is too short and it is too late to make them effective.

Ten minutes, Shikamaru, can I help you with anything?

Asuma Sarutobi blew out a smoke ring with a wry smile.

Come on, if you lose, Class 10 will be wiped out. I won't be able to hold my head high in front of my colleagues.

It's because I can't hold my head up in front of Teacher Hong!

Nara Shikamaru teased nonchalantly.

Ahem...you guy, what nonsense are you talking about! Get ready...

What are you ready for? All your trump cards have been exposed. That female sand ninja is a guy who uses secret medicine to cast illusions. Her physical skills are not bad, she is even a little better than me. My secret shadow skills have also been exposed...

If the two of them still had a trump card, they wouldn't be in a situation where they had to win in such a narrow encounter.

As long as you know, do your best! Don't take what you just said to heart, it was a joke. My reputation can't be ruined by just losing the Chunin Exam.

I know!

With Nara Shikamaru's IQ, how could he not understand this? It’s just that the people around me have too high expectations of myself, and I am too lazy, so I try to motivate myself in different ways.

Although as a weak newcomer, I still have injuries on my body and it is not incomprehensible to be targeted, but I am always looked down upon one after another. To be honest, I am also a little angry!

Being caught off guard on the first try can also be explained as a complete lack of understanding of each other.

In the second trial, in the Forest of Death, they were targeted by a group that had already collected all the Scrolls of Heaven and Scrolls of Earth, and they had a completely unnecessary encounter.

He was completely humiliated by his opponent, and then teased by a fake scroll thrown out casually, and he still couldn't regain his face.

I finally won the third test and was selected for the first game in advance, but was challenged again in public.

Even with his lazy personality, he was a little irritated.

It's good to have fighting spirit, but don't let anger blind your mind!

Sarutobi Asuma persuaded,

Even if you lose, you still have another chance to challenge!

No chance, Asuma-sensei, my physical strength and chakra can barely sustain a battle...

Even if his body is not injured and he has plenty of physical strength and chakra, with Nara Shikamaru's strength, which one of them would have the best chance of winning?

In comparison, Chi, the female ninja of Sunagakure Village, is already considered the easier one to deal with.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

Chi and Nara Shikamaru stood face to face, the contrast was too obvious.

Nara Shikamaru is only just over 1.5 meters tall now. Compared with Chi, who is close to 1.7 meters tall, the age gap is clearly visible.

I don't think so usually! When I'm with Yeme, I always feel that Yeme is too short, but now I realize that Qian is really tall!

After drinking a cup of cool tea, Daimaru smacked his mouth with satisfaction.

That Konoha ninja, it seems, even as an adult, he is only 1.7 meters tall. Is that pineapple hair style to make him look taller?

Nara Shikamaru's current appearance is obviously shorter than Temari's. In the future, what will Temari like about this guy who is nearly four years younger than herself?

At least she shouldn't be good-looking. Temari likes pretty boys, but her favorite is Uchiha Sasuke.

It can't be that half-drooped, lazy look!

You are so merciless with your mouth!

Kankuro sighed;

Can you spare a few words? Your teammates are still competing. It's okay if you don't encourage them. You also comment on their appearance. It's very rude!
