Chapter 146
In the Konoha Arena, the cheers of the crowd were like waves, rising and falling, as if to overturn the entire venue.
Audiences from various countries wore unique costumes of their respective countries, colorful and of different styles, forming a colorful picture.
Their faces were filled with excitement and expectation, and their eyes were shining with fiery light, like burning stars.
In the stands, the shadows and daimyo sat in the VIP seats, their figures were tall and majestic, standing like mountains.
Their eyes were fixed on the center of the venue, which was a dazzling place illuminated by the sun, full of infinite possibilities and hope.
They were looking forward to the start of Konoha's Chunin Exam, and looking forward to how strong the performance of this new generation of ninjas would be since Konoha dared to invite all the countries in the ninja world?
This was a good day to collect intelligence and the future attitude and view of Konoha!
On one side of the venue, the Anbu ninjas of Konoha Village were neatly arranged.
Jiraiya was the leader, with a gentle smile on his face, waving to the audience.
Behind him were the eight members of this exam.
They were all ready to show their skills in the exam.
"Sasuke! I let you escape last time, you better be careful this time!"
"Akito, don't get too proud!"
Sasuke was still angry about the mysterious fact that Akito was taken away by Jiraiya for special training and came back without saying a word.
Ningci looked at the two people chatting there, and snorted coldly without considering himself as an opponent.
"Humph! I hope you don't lose to me..."
Ningci has great confidence in himself.
"This competition! The schedule will be decided by the other four countries' daimyos and kages!"
"Let us welcome them!"
Yuhi Kurenai and Asuma held two boxes in front of the representatives of various countries.
Because of the accelerated pace, Gekkou Gale did not die.
Orochimaru temporarily gave up the destruction of Konoha because of the turmoil.
Maki and the others didn't quite understand, but they put their focus back on the exam.
Since they couldn't destroy Konoha, they could take this opportunity to spread the reputation of the Sand Village!
Maki was still very confident in Gaara and Kankuro!
"Tsk..."
Oonoki was a little unhappy. Who was Konoha showing off to?
They said they were the strongest and they were still breathing heavily?
He floated up and pulled his hand in the box, and soon a string of names appeared.
"Uzumaki Naruto."
Then it was handed to the Daimyo of the Land of Earth.
The Daimyo of the Land of Earth also drew a name.
"Nara Shikamaru."
The Land of Water, the Land of Lightning, and the Land of Wind followed closely.
The Land of Wind was represented only by Orochimaru disguised as the Kazekage.
In fact, the last two candidates were also chosen by him.
[First match: Uzumaki Naruto VS Nara Shikamaru! ]
[Second match: Kankuro VS Aburame Shino! ]
[The third match: Gaara vs. Sasuke! ]
[The fourth match: Hyuga Neji vs. Rock Lee! ]
When the details of the battle were revealed on the electronic screen, the crowd was in an uproar.
Many people even opened the market and started betting.
"I'll bet half of my pocket money this month on Naruto."
Kiba held Akamaru and planned to play a little.
"Hinata? Do you want to play?"
Hinata blushed when Kiba called her.
"I... I..."
"I'll bet on Naruto..."
......
The venue was quickly cleared.
This is a battle venue with the size of ten football fields.
In order to ensure the excitement of the game, Konoha specially expanded it.
In addition, there are special ninjutsu in the sky to record their battles, and then project them to the audience farther away in the surrounding stands.
This Chunin Exam had such a huge impact that many dignitaries and ninjas with no missions came to Konoha to watch the most magnificent match in decades.
"Okay! I declare! The final round of the Chunin Exam begins now!"
"The first match will be between our players: Uzumaki Naruto vs. Nara Shikamaru!"
"Please ask both players to get ready!"
"Tsk!"
Luwan was very upset.
If he had met someone else, he might have struggled to get into the semi-finals.
Now...
Forget it...
It's really troublesome!
Let's not waste time...
Luwan just stepped onto the stage and raised his hand in the puzzled eyes of everyone.
"This match..."
"I give up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he caused an uproar among the people around him.
"Ah?"
"What's going on?”
“Just...surrender?”
“Is Konoha kidding us?”
“No!! I just bet!”
“Ah——”
In addition to the audience, even the people from various countries looked unhappy.
It’s really meaningless to invite them to such a battle competition...
The Nara family still retains some people.
They don’t understand Luwan’s operation.
Even if they can’t beat him, it’s good to show their Nara family’s means!
Asuma also looked ugly.
“This kid!”
“I’ll deal with him when I come back!”
Asuma looked at Yuhi Kurenai, and then gritted his teeth and said.
Jiraiya still knew something about this situation.
It is said that Shikamaru Nara is the smartest child of the new generation in Konoha.
He may have seen that something was wrong with Naruto a long time ago.
Naruto’s strength...
It’s not surprising to surrender directly!
“First game: Uzumaki Naruto wins! ”
“The second match: Kankuro vs. Aburame Shino!”
“Please prepare for the two contestants!”
“Hehehe, let’s be honest. I have fought with your Konoha ninjas, but they were all vulnerable.”
“As a genius of the Aburame clan, I can be sent here. I hope you won’t let me down…”
They also had a fight in the original book.
But at that time, Kankuro chose to give up in order to hide himself.
Now both of them want to be in the limelight.
After all, there is a lot of limelight here, and the influence is great. In the future conquest process, their own merits will definitely increase a lot.
“I have seen a lot of puppet masters, and I hope you won’t let me down.”
Shino pushed the black sunglasses on her face and spoke in a muffled voice.
Although their words could be heard by some ninjas with special powers, no one felt that something was wrong.
No one could have imagined that what they said was sent here by the Empire, not by the Konoha village.
“Okay! I declare! The second match... begins! "
Jiraiya held the microphone, and his voice spread through the speakers.
The fact that Jiraiya, the acting Hokage, was the referee was enough to show how seriously he took this exam.
The moment Jiraiya announced, the atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense.
"Black Secret Technique: Ten Finger Puppets!"
Ten puppets emerged from the summoning marks imprinted on Kankuro's ten fingers.
In addition, there were his three great diamond puppets.
[Salamander][Crow][Black Ant]
A total of thirteen puppets were released instantly!
Each of them was filled with an aura that was no less than that of a jonin!
Everyone present stared at this genin from the Sand Village with fear on their faces!
