Chapter 328: The Chunin Exam Again
"Oh?"

On this side, Danzo Shimura's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Jiraiya carefully, expressing his desire to hear the details.

“There are some third-rate writers who write ‘time-travel’ novels.

“Roughly speaking, it will be in line with what you described.

“If, Danzo-sama, you are interested, you can go and have a look yourself.

"By the way, you can also find out who is the top seller in the publishing industry this year."

Jiraiya said with a half-smile.

Although, I have stopped writing for a year and have faded out of the literary world for a while.

But before becoming Hokage, the creation of his sequel "Intimate Violence" was nearing completion.

At present, Jiraiya's book is the best-selling publication in the entire Land of Fire.

"Okay, I'll definitely go and see it."

On this side, Shimura Danzo nodded seriously.

His eyes dropped and he returned to his calm expression. Then he turned and left.

Jiraiya was indeed a little confused by Danzo's strange question.

He said he wanted to develop new ninjutsu and "stay in the world."

But this research direction is clearly aimed at "immortality".

Could it be that this old guy also wants to follow in Orochimaru's footsteps?
Jiraiya was speculating wildly in his mind.

In short, I did not provide any useful information to the other party.

Then he shook his head and put this episode out of his mind.

Looking at Danzo's leaving back, Jiraiya laughed secretly in his heart.

I just felt that the old guy exuded a disgusting weird aura from head to toe.

"Landful Immortal!!"

A moment later, the door to the Hokage's office was flung open once again.

I saw Naruto Uzumaki rushing in in orange, shouting:

"It's terrible, it's terrible this time!

"You must help me!"

Here, Naruto rushed straight to Jiraiya, wanting to lie on the desk, and shouted loudly with a frustrated look on his face.

"what happened?"

Jiraiya tried desperately to hide backwards to prevent Naruto from catching him, and he felt a headache in his heart.

This kid has just been back for one day, I wonder what kind of trouble he has brought to me.

"Huh? What is this?"

On this side, Uzumaki Naruto noticed the resume on the table, then calmed down and reached out to take the resume in his hand.

"wait"

Before Jiraiya could stop him, Uzumaki Naruto had already stood up and walked away with his resume.

Naruto walked to the refrigerator in the corner, took out a can of drink skillfully, then sat down on the sofa and began to look through the contents of his resume.

Jiraiya looked at the other party helplessly and repeated the question:
"What trouble have you caused me again?"

"Have it!"

On this side, Uzumaki Naruto, who was looking at the resume, suddenly had an idea. He excitedly slapped his thigh and shouted loudly.

“Got it?!!”

Hearing this, Jiraiya was startled and asked stutteringly:

"What do you mean? Haven't you been in Myoboku Mountain all this time?
"Yes, which toad's is it?!"

"What toad?"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at the lecherous sage strangely and said:
"I mean, there is a way!"

Naruto raised the resume in his hand and asked with a silly smile:
"I've never seen this ninja in the village before.

"However, I noticed that he was also wearing my Konoha's forehead protector.

"Is he also a ninja from Konoha?"

"what"

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment, then nodded woodenly.

"That would be great!"

On this side, after seeing Jiraiya nod, Naruto immediately jumped up happily.

If you are not careful, the drink in your hand will spill everywhere.

"Can you be more steady?"

Looking at the table and floor covered with water stains, Jiraiya couldn't help but frown and complain loudly.

"Sorry sorry, I'm so excited!"

Uzumaki Naruto quickly put away the resume and put it aside, then began to wipe the table in a hurry.

"Stop working on it, what would be great?"

Jiraiya waved his hands irritably and placed one hand on his forehead, feeling his temple throbbing.

“I’ll be next.”

Here, Uzumaki Naruto repeated again about the upcoming Chunin Exam and the embarrassing situation of his Kakashi class being short of one person.

“Ah, I see.”

After understanding what was going on, Jiraiya couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

At this moment, Naruto was holding Sai's resume in his hand, looking very happy.

Even a fool could guess what he was thinking.

But Jiraiya was still unsure whether he should just agree to the other party.

"I say, that, that, the lecherous immortal!"

Here, Uzumaki Naruto smiled, pointed at the resume, and asked irritably:
"This guy named Sai, is he still a Genin now?"

"Well"

probably.

Speaking of which, members of the Root organization never participated in Konoha's ninja ratings or exams before leaving the organization, which is equivalent to a system independent of Konoha.

Although the person in the resume has good abilities, he has indeed never taken any exams.

Strictly speaking, he could probably be considered a Genin.

"should be."

Jiraiya nodded slowly.

"Yes! That's great!"

Uzumaki Naruto celebrated happily once again.

Then he remembered something and asked again:
“So, is he in a threesome now?

“Does he have teammates for this Chunin Exam?

"I mean, why don't we just have him join our Kakashi class and take the exam with Sakura and me!"

Uzumaki Naruto spoke out his thoughts all at once.

Hearing Naruto make this request, Jiraiya fell silent.

In my mind, I re-examined the whole thing.

On the one hand, he was indeed considering directly and completely rejecting Shimura Danzo's proposal.

But on the other hand, he really wanted to know what Danzo's back-up plan was for this move.

To be honest, it was rare for the other party to be so honest for so long, and Jiraiya actually felt a little uneasy.

At this moment, Danzo finally started playing chess again. If he didn't dare to accept the challenge, it would spoil everyone's fun.
On the other hand, Naruto proposed at this time that Sai should replace Sasuke and take part in the Chunin Exam with them.

Through this loophole, one can observe Sai's character while isolating him from most of the important political affairs.

Also, there is Hatake Kakashi who can help keep an eye on him.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya had a general idea in his mind, but he still said cautiously:
"How about I ask him for you first?" "It shouldn't be a problem."

"Great!"

On this side, Uzumaki Naruto jumped up happily.

He was seen pulling Jiraiya's arm and shouting:

"It turns out that it's right to listen to Sasuke. You have a solution~
"Chūnin Exams, here we come!!"

On the other side, Jiraiya, whose half sleeve was about to be torn off, was feeling very troubled.

He pushed Naruto hard and said with disdain:

"Hey, let go!
"I haven't promised you yet!"

September 25th, the sixty-fifth year of Konoha.

Root organization's underground base, Danzo's room.

On the table, a dim candle was flickering.

In front of the candlelight, Danzo Shimura slowly closed the time-travel novel in his hand.

My thoughts were jumping back and forth between "Jiraiya is playing tricks on me" and "Could it be possible that such a strange thing really existed?"

Outside the house, there was a knock on the door at the right time.

"Come in."

Danzo put the novel aside and spoke.

Before he finished speaking, a thin, fair-skinned young man pushed the door open.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt on one knee and bowed his head at the feet of Shimura Danzo.

"Master Danzo, you're looking for me?"

“Things went even better than expected.”

Here, Shimura Danzo spoke in a deep voice:
“I just received news that you have been assigned to Kakashi’s class.

"This is truly a blessing from heaven, coming at the right time for the task I have given you."

"Yes."

I saw the young man kneeling on the ground, his face still buried in the shadows, and I couldn't see his expression clearly.

“The mission will officially enter the second phase starting today.

"Until the end of this mission, your name will be Sai."

Shimura Danzo said slowly.

"Is that Sai?
"clear."

When Sai heard his name for the first time, he immediately raised his head and gave a weird mechanical smile.

Seeing this scene, Danzo couldn't help but feel disgusted and said coldly:

"Don't put on that fake smile in front of me."

"I'm sorry, because the textbook says that to win people's hearts, you must first learn to smile."

Sai regained his expressionless look and raised his head and said:

"Although I have practiced, I still can't use facial expressions smoothly."

textbook.
Danzo snorted in his heart, and then asked again:
"Have you carefully read the relevant documents I gave you earlier?"

"Yes."

Sai nodded and answered seriously:
"I have kept every doubt in mind."

"very good."

Danzo nodded silently.

On the table, the candlelight flickered, and every beat was accompanied by a slight crackling sound, as if the restless soul deep underground was whispering.

The flickering light, illuminating Shimura Danzo's face half hidden in the shadows, added a touch of gloom and ominousness to it.

"Has there been any reply from the Water Kingdom?"

Shimura Danzo lowered his voice further and asked.

"not yet."

Sai answered respectfully.

"Then, follow me first."

Upon learning that Orochimaru had still not sent back the information he cared about, Danzo Shimura couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.

Then he supported himself with his crutch with one hand and motioned Sai to follow him.

Konohagakure Village, by the Konoha River.

"Fire Release·Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!!"

Accompanied by a clear voice, Sarutobi Konohamaru jumped high with his left hand clenched in front of his mouth.

Dozens of fireballs were rapidly spit out from its mouth, and the flames spread out like Impatiens seeds, covering it from all directions.

"good."

On the opposite side, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but nodded.

Konohamaru's speed in mastering ninjutsu has far exceeded his expectations.

It seems that although Konohamaru and Naruto have many similarities in personality, in terms of training, the talent and learning ability shown by Konohamaru are far above Naruto.

Although immature, his basic skills are very solid.

One cannot help but sigh that this is the powerful family background of the Sarutobi clan.

Now, as the Chunin Exam is getting closer, Uchiha Sasuke has also stepped up the special training and cultivation of these three disciples.

During this period, he has put aside all his daily low-level tasks and focused fully on this matter.

"The key points of using this move are feinting, trapping the enemy, obscuring the view, and range attacks."

On this side, after seeing that Konohamaru had mastered this ninjutsu, Uchiha Sasuke called him over and gave him further practical explanations of the relevant techniques.

"Sasuke-sensei, I don't seem to understand what you mean by 'trapping the enemy'."

Konohamaru tilted his head and asked for advice.

On the side, the other two people, seeing that Konohamaru had achieved some success, were very envious.

It has to be admitted that among these three disciples, the one Uchiha Sasuke currently admires and respects the most is undoubtedly the acting squad leader he personally selected, Jin Dafeng.

However, in the previous chakra property test, the natural attribute measured by Jin Dafeng was actually "earth".

This also means that in terms of ninjutsu, what Uchiha Sasuke can teach him is greatly limited.

Now, as Konohamaru's "Hosen Fire Technique" has become more proficient, Sasuke has begun to formally consider teaching him the "Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet" that he learned from Jiraiya.

You know, the core of this ninjutsu lies in the "precise control of chakra."

Under the long-term one-on-one guidance of the elite teacher Ebisu, Konohamaru has laid a corresponding foundation that is even better than his original self.

However, let’s look at Jin Dafeng.

Due to the incompatibility of chakra attributes, Sasuke has not yet fully decided what to teach him.

At present, Jin Dafeng has only been taught some simple physical skills, and the corresponding progress can be said to be far behind.

On the other side, about Hinata Hanabi.

After carefully testing Hanabi's gentle fist level, Uchiha Sasuke thought.

Given her current situation, she only needs to further understand the relevant content taught to her by the Hyuga clan to be able to cope with this exam.

In fact, the Hyuga clan's training system is already very mature. Any ninja from the Hyuga clan can reach a fairly good level as long as he follows the established route.

As for advancement and improvement, that will be a matter for the future.

Looking back, Ningji almost forced himself into a desperate situation with just his "Soft Fist Technique: Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms".

Compared with Hanabi's current strength, she is still slightly inferior to Hyuga Neji back then -

The thirty-two palms are already proficient, but the sixty-four palms are still a little immature.

So, the safest approach for Huahuo is to continue on the existing path.
