Chapter 2190 One After Another (4,000 Words)

The blue river gurgled past the sturdy bridge piers and continued towards the outer city of Konoha Village. There were sparkling waves in the bright sunshine.

"Ah……"

On the blue water bridge, Haruno Sakura, Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke were leaning gently on the bridge railing, as if they were waiting for someone. At the same time, a sigh slowly floated away from the three of them. Come on.

"Ah! I've had enough!"

Then, after this sigh, Haruno Sakura finally seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. She straightened up suddenly and stamped her feet twice, and the anxiety in her heart couldn't help but blurt out.

"Why does that guy always make others wait when he calls them out!"

Following these anxious and dissatisfied words, the veins on Haruno Sakura's forehead completely burst out, condensing into a tic-tac-toe, beating on her forehead, and she stamped her foot twice in anger.

It's been over two hours.

It was already two hours past the estimated gathering time.

She was tired of waiting.

No!

I am impatient to wait for every gathering.

Every time, every time!

The guy they called their teacher called them out early every time, but every time he made them wait until three o'clock in the morning before arriving late. There was never a time when they were not late!

Moreover, it’s okay to be late. Every time he gives an excuse for being late and his nonchalant tone, he almost says, “I’m just late, on purpose.”

It almost drove her crazy every time.

This time, she really went crazy.

"That's right!"

And her words received an enthusiastic response from Naruto Uzumaki almost instantly.

"What's worthy of accidentally oversleeping?

The mood of a girl who hasn’t even done her hair! "

Following Naruto Uzumaki's response, perhaps feeling that someone was supporting him, or that there was some resonance with each other, Haruno Sakura subconsciously blurted out the girl's concerns.

In order to catch up with today's meeting, she didn't even fix her hair, and she was worried about being late on the way here.

However, when I got here, I kept my "sloppy" image in front of my sweetheart and waited for two whole hours but still didn't find the person who initiated the gathering.

This is simply torture to her!

She couldn't help but go crazy!

"I overslept and didn't even wash my face or brush my teeth!"

Then, following her words, Uzumaki Naruto blurted out this sentence.

"You...you are so dirty!"

After hearing these words, Haruno Sakura, who had been brewing a bigger complaint, instantly stiffened her face. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and a complaint without any momentum came out smoothly.

Why are these guys so high-spirited so early in the morning...

At the same time, behind the two of them, Uchiha Sasuke, who was leaning on the bridge railing, had his eyes half drooped, and he looked weak. If it weren't for his handsome face, which was much more refined than Nara Shikamaru, his expression would almost be... It is exactly the same as Nara Shikamaru.

And in his heart, he was already slandering.

He quite didn't understand why his friends were in such good spirits so early in the morning.

He didn't even think about talking.

"Um?"

At this moment, as a series of slanders flashed through his mind, Uchiha Sasuke's eyes flashed, and he suddenly looked towards the nearest torii on the right, and seemed to have discovered something.

"brush!"

And at this moment, when Uchiha Sasuke's eyes settled, a figure flashed above the torii gate.

"Yeah! Good morning everyone! I got lost on the road of life today!"

It was their teacher and the initiator of this gathering, Hatake Kakashi!

As for his first words on the stage, as always, he gave himself an excuse for being late, which sounded false at first glance, and his tone was extremely perfunctory.

"Liar!"

Perhaps it was too perfunctory and fake. As soon as he finished saying this, two of his disciples pointed it out angrily and sharply.

"despair!"

However, as always, he ignored the sharp accusations from his two disciples and jumped down from the torii gate.

This formation, could it be said that...

At this time, Uchiha Sasuke also stood behind Uzumaki Naruto and Haruno Sakura, looking at Kakashi seriously.

When he saw Kakashi's suddenly serious face, such a thought suddenly passed through his mind.

"Okay, although it's a little sudden, because I recommend you to take the Chunin Selection Examination, you can take these application forms."

Then, just as the thought flashed through Uchiha Sasuke's mind, Kakashi spoke.

After finishing speaking, he took out three pieces of paper from his arms and handed them to them.

Looking at the text and seal on it, as well as the largest word "中" written on it, it was obvious that it was the application form for the Chunin Examination that he mentioned.

"Chunin Examination..."

Looking at the three applications in Kakashi's hand, Uzumaki Naruto and Haruno Sakura were stunned on the spot and murmured.

really……

In this regard, such an idea passed through Uchiha Sasuke's mind.

"I've said it before. This recommendation is not mandatory. It's your freedom whether you want to participate or not."

Then, looking at his confused and three disciples who were habitually silent, Kakashi explained incidentally.

"That's great! Kakashi-sensei! I like you the most!"

And this sentence instantly woke up the two dazed disciples. The most unexpected disciple among the three disciples immediately gave him a super unexpected tiger pounce, and let out a joyful exclamation. , the blond and blue-eyed disciple was already hanging on his neck.

"Stop! Stay away!"

This move undoubtedly caused Kakashi to panic instantly. After his whole body spun around under the inertia of the tiger's attack, he let go of the young man hanging on him with this subconscious sound.

"Those who want to take the exam, please sign the application form. Come to the school at 3 o'clock in the afternoon in room 301, above!"

Kakashi said this after putting down Uzumaki Naruto.

"Hey hey hey..."

But this sentence was met with Uzumaki Naruto's silly smile, and someone who seemed not to have heard him at all, muttering excitedly to the Chunin application form: "Chunin exam, Chunin exam..."

At the same time, the other two disciples, Haruno Sakura and Uchiha Sasuke, remained silent.

"Then, go back and think about it carefully."

However, Kakashi didn't care too much about his disciple's reaction. After explaining everything, he disappeared in a flash.

Chuunin exam...

There must be a lot of strong guys.

As for Kakashi's departure, his three disciples didn't pay much attention. After each staying in place for a while, they turned side by side in a tacit understanding and headed in a certain habitual direction.

While walking on this side, Uzumaki Naruto couldn't restrain his excitement, thinking so in his heart.

For example...

That guy.

Then, the face of Kankuro from Sunagakure appeared in his mind.

Also, this guy!

Then, his eyes fell on Uchiha Sasuke on the other side.

As long as you win here, the road to becoming Hokage is right in front of you!

In fact, in the next moment, he fantasized about defeating the two of them, winning the best title in the Chunin Exam, and having the Third Hokage retire and pass the throne to himself.

"Hey Hey……"

And as he thought about it, he laughed out loud.

Maybe I can fight that guy.

At this time, Uchiha Sasuke's eyes moved away from the giggling crane tail and fell on the ground in front of him. Such a thought came to his mind.

And in his mind, the red-haired gourd boy named Gaara from Sunagakure appeared in his mind.

Vaguely, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

As for that guy, he is the ambassador of Kusakure Village and should not be able to take the Chunin Exam.

And at this moment, a young man with mottled white hair and only one left eye exposed suddenly appeared in his mind. He was wearing a forehead protector from Kusugakure.

However, after the young man's appearance emerged, he didn't think he could fight him.

Vaguely, there was a trace of pity on his face.

Haneda Kazuha...

This suspicious guy...

It seems that the only way to reveal this guy's true face is before the Chunin Exam!

And with a look of pity, a certain obsession that he had temporarily forgotten due to the Chuunin Exam suddenly ignited in his heart.

They still have unfinished business!

This guy Haneda Kazuha is so suspicious!

They also have to expose this guy's true identity.

Although they still don't know what this guy's true identity may be, he is so suspicious that he must be wearing a mask on his face!

They still have to tear off this mask, even if the Chuunin exam is approaching!

Chunin Examination...

I don't want to participate.

Not to mention Sasuke, I can't even compare to Naruto, what about the Chunin exam...

At this time, Haruno Sakura, who was walking in the middle, slowly and unconsciously stopped, and such a lost thought passed through her heart.

That's right, she didn't want to take the Chunin Exams.

In other words, she didn't think she had the strength to take the Chunin Exam.

She has no confidence.

And when she stopped and looked at the two figures who were still walking forward, as if no matter what difficulties ahead could stop them, the shadow in her heart became even deeper.

I am different from them...

Maybe, I shouldn't take the Chunin Exams.

Such a thought passed through her mind.

…

"Five days from now..."

At this time, on the other side, on the third-floor balcony of the Konoha Hidden Area Guesthouse with the most open view, the mottled white hair was fluttering in front of Haneda Kazuyo's forehead. The occasional breeze in early summer was mixed with the warmth of the bright sunshine. Brushing over his body, a hint of sadness spread out.

And there was a murmur in his mouth.

"Wow!"

With this sound, the Chuunin Examination Application Form he was holding in his hand, which was the same as the Kakashi Ban trio but with the words Kusagakure Village on the seal, made a slight sound under the breeze.

Kazune had just come to inform him, and news had arrived from Konoha. Five days later, the registration for the Chunin Examination would be official, and the location would be Classroom 301 of Konoha School.

Registration is for groups of three.

No individual registration is accepted, only three people arriving at the same time and willing to register.

"well……"

Then, amid this murmur, Haneda Kazuyo let out a long sigh.

I didn't want to take action at first, but now it seems that I can't do anything.

What should we do next?

After sighing, Haneda Kazuha, who was standing behind the balcony railing and thinking about the view from the gate of Konoha Village, felt a little troubled.

"Um?"

Then, in this moment of trouble, his eyes suddenly moved down and landed on the side door of the guesthouse in his area.

"That's the harmony, what else?"

Then, as his eyes settled, he murmured to himself again.

At this moment, where he could see, which was the side door of the guesthouse in Caoyin District, there were two women standing inside and outside.

Standing on the inside is the harmony on their side.

Standing on the outside was a young and beautiful Konoha female ninja.

It seemed that the two of them were bowing and greeting each other in a somewhat unfamiliar and polite manner.

Is this... the harvest of the Harmony Hinata clan?

But he’s not from the Hyuga clan…

How did they get together?

In an instant, such a thought flashed through Haneda Kazuyo's mind.

"Uh... are you out? Still smiling, both of you seem quite happy?"

And then, there was another subconscious whisper in his mouth.

At this time, in his sight, Harmony had already left together with the young and beautiful female ninja. From his angle, he could just see the unconcealed smiles of the two of them.

"Friendship?"

Then, after whispering, he tilted his head and uttered an extremely questioning question full of doubt.

"ah!"

However, soon, he no longer had any doubts, because his eyes were quickly attracted by a series of movements at the gate of Konoha.

From the corner of his eye, within the scope of his sight, outside the open door of Konoha, ninjas with different forehead protectors and different appearances began to pour in one after another.

Almost, everyone has already arrived.

The genin taking part in this chuunin exam.

From…

From every ninja village!

And when his eyes moved to the gate of Konoha, which was quite far away, such a thought flashed through his mind.

It seems that there is no way to relax.

Since it is inevitable to take part in this Chunin Exam, then we must be more serious and get things done properly.

Then, the confusion and helplessness in his eyes slowly faded, and a glimmer of light quietly flashed through.

…

"Snapped!"

But when Haneda Kazuha made a decision, a scroll was placed next to him in a simple shed on Nara Shikamaru's favorite rooftop where he could watch the clouds.

"Shikamaru, this is a list of all the heroes I can find."

At this time, beside Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Choji slowly sat down and said seriously.

Well……

This guy really went to the Memorial Monument to copy his name!

Looking at the scroll next to him and the sitting figure, Nara Shikamaru, who was lying leisurely watching the clouds, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly unnaturally.

This time...

Trouble!
