Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 55 Ninja Way

(About the question of book friend "Zuo Shu", due to working hours, I'm afraid I won't be able to answer it carefully in the near future. I'm a bit dazzled..., simply answer a few questions, about Danzo and the wave of the country incident, the book gives an explanation, because the ninjas in the world of Naruto have great power, they don't have to hide in the dark, so-called Mystery and terror to maintain their own safety and status. As for the so-called 'gen', it was originally a training institution for Anbu. What is necessary? Regarding Danzang, I don’t think I hate it. I want to say that I’m washing the ground for him. Sorry, I’m not interested in it. It can be said that he himself has not accomplished a major event, and he can’t see the general trend clearly. Many people Because of his performance when he was dying, I think he is actually very heroic, but I said in the book that his behavior at that time was not called sacrifice, but called a dog jumping over the wall... Naruto Sasuke was delayed by the mission of the Kingdom of Waves-they are not written by me For the protagonists, they are given shots because of their status in the original work, that’s all. That’s all for now.)

Under the control of Shikamaru, Choji wrote the answers on the examination paper smoothly. Shikamaru had browsed the examination paper beforehand, and the answers to the examination questions had been memorized in his heart. At this time, there was almost no pause in writing, and the examination questions were only Jiu Dao, although the shadow imitation technique has a 5-minute usage limit, there is still plenty of time.

"what!"

After a while, Choji, who was relieved to answer the questions under the control of Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique, suddenly looked concentrating. He had finished answering the previous nine questions, but stopped writing for the tenth question.

"The tenth question will be asked 45 minutes after the start of the exam. Please answer after understanding the questions asked by the chief examiner." Because the previous few questions were too difficult, the tenth question was not carefully read at all. After looking at it carefully, I couldn't help thinking with doubts: "What does this mean? Why didn't it come out at the very beginning!?"

Choji was thinking about it, but found that Shikamaru had controlled him to put down the pen in his hand, stretched out his right index finger, and drew a few words in the blank space below the tenth question-don't move rashly.

After repeatedly drawing the strokes on both sides, Choji felt the restraining force all over his body suddenly subsided from under his feet, as if his body had just been released from a weight-bearing state, and he was very relaxed. He understood that it was Shikamaru who lifted the shadow imitation technique.

"Don't act rashly?" Ding Ci said to himself with a relaxed smile, "No matter what the tenth question is, as long as I have your help, I'm not afraid, Shikamaru!"

…………

After Shikamaru stopped the delivery of chakra, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and finally warned Choji on the tenth question. In fact, it seemed a bit unnecessary, but since there is still time, this behavior is okay.

Shikamaru raised his head and looked forward. Ino, who had soft light golden hair and was wearing a purple shirt, could be easily recognized just from his back. After a little hesitation, he gave up. Next, when Morino Ibiki announced the tenth question, he used Ino's ability forced Gaara Team to give up the idea of ​​taking the exam.

Ninja village and ninja village, ninja and ninja, have never been good allies who get along very well. Fighting and competition have been accompanied since the ninja village system was not established, and ninjas were still hired by ethnic groups. It's around the ninja.

The value of information lies in its uniqueness. After it is known by others, the price will gradually decrease, but there is not only one ninja agency in the world that can be hired. Therefore, when two or more groups of ninjas collect the same information In the process, using various means to kill and eliminate the enemy's competitors is also something that a qualified ninja must consider.

Shikamaru, who is familiar with the original work, knows that the so-called "tenth question" by Morino Ibiki is actually the psychological pressure caused by the previous nine advanced exam questions, and the possibility of "never being able to become a ninja" tragedy to intimidate candidates. Create mental threats, so that candidates who do not have enough confidence and courage to voluntarily give up, this choice is actually the tenth question.

But it is precisely this test question that is actually the easiest time to eliminate powerful enemies!

In the original work, Shikamaru didn’t expect—or in the original work, the strength of the third class ninja in the tenth class is too poor, and almost all candidates are “strong enemies” to them—as long as Ino is reminded by the shadow imitation technique, let Ino used mind-body transformation to control powerful enemies and teammates, and gave up on the tenth question, thus forcing all team members to withdraw from the exam!

For Shikamaru, there are only two teams that are really threatening in this exam--the sand hidden trio headed by Gaara, and the Konoha spy trio headed by Yakushidou. Although there are eight Dunjia and Lianhua skills, Shikamaru also has a way to deal with it, and does not allow him time to use it.

"But..." Shikamaru tapped the table lightly with his index finger, thinking of that crazy and talented ninja, he was on guard: "Gara and Yakushidou are both part of Dashewan's plan. Do it, it will definitely get his attention."

Leaving aside the legendary Konoha "Three Ninjas", even if Shikamaru were to face Kamomochi without killing him now, he would have no chance of winning. It is unknown whether the shadow imitation technique will work against Orochimaru.

Even if there was only a slight possibility, Shikamaru didn't want to attract Orochimaru's attention, thus encountering this terrifying enemy in the death forest, so this opportunity could only be let go.

…………

As the exam time passed, more and more candidates tried to cheat because the exam questions were too difficult, and they were found out many times, thus losing their qualifications for the exam. A total of 87 people came!

Even excluding Konoha Chunin, who was hidden among the candidates and served as the source of information for the first written test, Konoha Village is also the village that applied for the most jinnin, so today's eliminated are mostly genin from Konoha Village.

Although there were some small twists and turns in the middle of the exam—after all, there was a ninja who thought he was an elite, trying to provoke the prestige of Konoha’s invigilator. However, it's time for the tenth question.

"Okay!" Hibiki Morino looked around the candidates in the classroom. As the candidates with insufficient ability were eliminated one after another, the classroom seemed much empty. This made Hibiki Morino smile a little smugly, and then tapped the blackboard hard Seeing that he had attracted the attention of the examinees, he said, "45 minutes is up, and the tenth question is about to start now!"

All the candidates, including Shikamaru, looked at Morino Ibiki seriously, held their breath, and listened carefully to his words, for fear of missing a word. After all, there is the possibility of the so-called "butterfly effect", and Shikamaru also I dare not be 100% sure that the tenth question is still the same as the original.

"But before writing the questions, I need to add a few more rules about the final questions!" Morinoi Hibiki ignored the bewildered expressions of the examinees, and said to himself: "Listen up, this is hopelessness. the rule of!"

"First of all, you have to choose to take the exam, or not to take this question." Mori Bixi's tone was low, seemingly slow, but with his attitude and the identity of the examiner, it was easy to establish a sense of oppression in the examinee's heart, and During this period, all candidates have to tense their nerves, listen carefully and analyze whether what he said is the same as the three rules formulated before, which contains information about the exam, and it is easy to cause psychological fatigue and weakness, which will also lead to Give Morino Ibixi, who is an expert in interrogation, a chance!

Shikamaru finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what Morino Ibiki said, and affirmed that the tenth question would be the same as the original work, just a multiple-choice question about confidence and courage, but other candidates, hearing this, Instead, he couldn't sit still, and a ninja with a beard and a sand mask on his forehead got up and asked Morinoi Hibiki, "Why do you want us to choose? What will happen if we don't answer!?"

"If you don't take the test, you will get zero points, and you will lose the qualification to take the test together with your teammates!" Morino Ibiki said expressionlessly, but these words caused an uproar from the candidates.

"what does this mean!"

"Of course we have to take the exam!"

"In addition, there is another rule." Ignoring the uproar of the examinees, Morinoi Hibiki continued with a twitch in his mouth, and deliberately continued in a cruel tone: "If you choose to take the tenth question, but there is no one who answers correctly—— Lose the eligibility to take the Chunin Exam!"

"What kind of inexplicable rule is this!" Morino Ibiki's words were too shocking. After speaking, there was even some silence in the classroom. After a minute or two, the restless Inuzuka tooth spoke first, pointing at Morino Ibi Xi said loudly: "In this classroom, there are many genocides who have already taken the Chunin exam many times, and if this is the case, what are the previous nine questions!?"

Hihiki Morino seemed too lazy to explain Inuzuka's accusation, and blocked him back with just one sentence: "You guys are so unlucky, this rule was made by me, and this year's exam, I have the final say!"

If you don't take the test, you will hurt your companions, and if you take the test, you may delay your life.

"Using words and foreign objects to gradually guide and oppress others, causing mental pain and torture, I really deserve to be the captain of the Anbu torture department." Shikamaru thought secretly, as far as the line of sight could see, even Choji and Ino With sufficient confidence, it seems that a little wavering has taken place at this time.

Morinoi Hibiki watched many examinees gradually start to waver with the passage of time, and couldn't help sneering in his heart. After all, what humans fear most is the unknown, and the amazing imagination of humans will always involuntarily describe the terrifying In terms of things, the two harsh choices he gave are related to the nine extremely difficult exam questions before. It is easy for people to imagine the terrifying difficulty of the tenth exam. As long as the delay is longer, the candidates will be given more imagination. Time, dig out your weak side, and more and more candidates will give up!

"Snapped!"

Gradually, candidates abstained one after another and left the examination room with a depressed expression. At this moment, a loud sound of slapping the table suddenly sounded, attracting the attention of Morino Ihiki and many other candidates. Sakura and Sasuke were shocked, because the one who slapped the table was Naruto.

"I won't run away! I'm going to take the tenth question!" Naruto seemed to be consoling himself at first, but then, as if venting his tension, he pointed at Morino Ibiki and said loudly: "Even if I can only Be a ninja, I will not be afraid of you, I will try my best to become Hokage and carry out my way of ninja!"

Naruto finished venting his anger, and after saying a few words, he became firm. Under the gaze of many examinees, he sat upright with his arms folded, panting like a cow, and stared at Morino Ibiki.

"Have you thought about it? This is a major choice to gamble your life," Morinoi Hibiki looked at Naruto thoughtfully, and asked in a concentrated voice: "If you want to leave, do it now!"

Seeing this, Naruto sneered, and said, "Say it straight, this is the way of ninja I want to implement! I've already said it, I'm going to take the tenth question!"
