You Know Nothing About Pain

"It's just... that boy named Gaara really made me a little concerned." Mr. Ji stroked his chin and said, "Since he is also Jinjuriki, it is no accident that his previous experience must be similar to Naruto's, and even It’s more painful than what happened to Naruto.”

"Worse than Naruto? No way..." Kyuubi said in disbelief, "I think that red-haired kid still has a family, at least he has older brothers and sisters, maybe the adults are still there."

"If you have a family, you must live better than Naruto? That's not necessarily the case." Mr. Ji said meaningfully: "Sometimes, the harm done by the closest person is infinitely more serious than what a stranger can do. , because it is a shadow that a person will never get rid of all his life."

"Hey, hey, you are Ji, aren't you?" Jiuwei looked at Mr. Ji, and suddenly panicked: "You don't want to help that kid named Gaara, he just wanted to get you The apprentice killed it."

Mr. Ji said with a smile: "You are thinking too much, I will never help him."

Hearing Mr. Ji's words, Kyuubi breathed a sigh of relief. He really convinced the pair of master and apprentice. He didn't want to kill the enemy, but only thought about how to solve the opponent all day long. If he continued like this, he would sooner or later follow the pair of master and apprentice Funeral.

However, not long after Kyuubi was relieved, Mr. Ji's next words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"I just want to share my analysis with Naruto." Mr. Ji winked mischievously at Kyuubi and said, "As for what Naruto is going to do, it's not convenient for me as a gentleman to care too much, after all The child is grown up and has a mind of his own."

"Then it's better for you to make a move, at least it's more reliable." Kyuubi covered his head with his paws and lay on the ground, looking hopeless: "According to Naruto's temper, can he ignore it?" , Isn't that what happened to Bai last time?"

"No, I have to practice quickly and get out of the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible." Nine Tails only felt a sense of crisis: "Managing east and west all day long, have you managed to manage the affairs of the world? Sooner or later, you two will be dragged into the water by you two. "

Mr. Ji watched with a smile as Kyuubi turned his back to him and began to practice, without explaining much. Many things, especially concepts, cannot be explained by words alone. Only when you see it later will you understand why.

For Mr. Ji, a Confucian scholar, educating others is an instinct engraved in his bones, especially when encountering people like Gaara who obviously have not established the correct three views.

The characteristics of Gaara are very obvious. For a person like Mr. Ji who has experienced countless storms, he can almost see through his thoughts at a glance.

For Gaara, he has not established a correct view of good and evil since he was a child. He doesn't know that killing people for no reason is wrong, and he doesn't know that helping others is kind.

It's like seeing Naruto hurting himself in order to save Hinata before, why Gaara was so shocked that he almost lost control of his emotions.

It was because Gaara couldn't understand that in his heart, saving people because he was a companion was something that would never happen.

It's like when a normal person sees a person on the road chopping up for no reason, he will think that this person is crazy and cannot understand why the other party would do this. ;

For Gaara, saving people is the same as a lunatic in the eyes of normal people in his eyes, which is incomprehensible.

A person who has not received normal education, at least, should have an opportunity to choose, an opportunity to choose whether to change.

----------------

After Gaara left, Naruto discussed with Sasuke, Hinata and others, and finally decided not to delay, and the two teams went to the central tower to complete the task together.

At the beginning, Ya still had the idea of ​​staying for a longer period of time and eliminating some opponents, but after what happened to Gaara, he now just wants to complete the task quickly and leave this ghost place.

A group of people arrived at the central tower together. During the process, they encountered a group of blind people blocking the way. Their real bodies were hidden in the dark, and they conjured up a lot of avatars to confuse everyone.

In the end, I just ran into Sasuke who was upset, and Sasuke, who was angry, wiped out the avatar with a few large-scale fire escapes, then found his real body, kicked him, beat him up, and finally took the scroll with him. Dumped by the side of the road.

After arriving at the central tower, the three of Hinata bid farewell to Naruto temporarily. Among them, they kept looking at their right hand that they had bandaged for Naruto. They blushed and just wanted to say something, but they were dragged away by grinning teeth.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura opened a door of the central tower and entered. After entering, the room was empty, only a picture hung on the wall of the whole team's gate.

The three of them combined the writing on the wall, and after a little thought, they knew that they wanted to open the two scrolls they had collected before.

After the scroll was opened, unexpectedly, it was Mr. Iruka who appeared in front of them unexpectedly.

"Mr. Iruka?" Naruto exclaimed in surprise, "Why did you suddenly appear here?"

"Our Chunin teacher was originally the examiner in charge of this exam." Iruka said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that I met you."

Iruka looked at the faces of the three with emotion, especially staying on Naruto's face for a long time.

"You guys have really grown up," Iruka said, looking at the three of them with relief, "Before you know it, you're going to become Chunin like me."

"This is only the second exam, Mr. Iruka, please don't make us proud." Naruto said with a smile, "Have we passed now?"

Iruka straightened his face, waved his hand and said, "I now announce that the three of you have officially passed the second assessment and entered the next assessment!"

Then Naruto and the three followed Iruka to an indoor training ground. Basically, those who passed the second exam were already waiting inside, Gaara and his party were also among them.There were six groups of eighteen candidates who passed the second exam. They all stood in the center of the arena and looked at the Three Hokages on the stage, as well as the group of ninjas behind the Three Hokages.

"First of all, congratulations on passing the second exam." Hiruzaru Sarutobi coughed and began to speak: "Before the next third exam, I have to tell you one thing, the real purpose of the Chunin exam .”

When the students below heard Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, most of them showed interest. After all, they themselves are the participants of the Chunin Exam. Very curious.

Next, Hiruza Sarutobi explained the purpose of the Chunin exam to the students below, mainly about why the exam should be conducted with the Allies.

The reason why the Chunin Exam will be assessed in conjunction with the allies is on the surface to increase and promote the friendship between the allies, so that ninjas from various countries can compete with each other in a healthy way, and improve the level of ninjas together.

But those are just superficial statements. The real deep-seated purpose is actually the epitome of the struggle between the various allies, which is commonly known as bright muscles.

After all, from a historical point of view, it has not been long since the Third Ninja World War. The ninjas who participated in the Third Ninja World War were basically the backbone of each ninja village, not to mention the more distant No. [-] Ninja World War. The first and second ninja world wars, so theoretically speaking, all the allied countries present were still life and death enemies on the battlefield not long ago.

The selection of Chunin is only one aspect of the Chunin exam, and another more important aspect is to infer the strength of a ninja village at that time through the test results of a certain period of time. Then other ninja villages will naturally be more careful, and will make moderate concessions on some dispensable interests.

Moreover, in the third test of the Chunin Exam, there will be many dignitaries from various countries coming to visit. These people are all the patrons of Ninja Village.

The resources spent on training a qualified ninja are astronomical for ordinary people, and this huge consumption is mainly obtained from various difficult tasks. The low-level tasks issued by ordinary villagers are nothing more than nothing. It is for training ninjas who have just graduated, and Ninja Village can't make much money at all.

And the results and grades of the third exam will be displayed in front of the big figures of various countries very intuitively. When these funders release tasks in the future, they will naturally tend to Ninja Village with higher exam results, so this exam is not just a selection process. Forbearance, to show off the muscles of other ninja villages, is the default arena for each ninja village to compete for resources.

Naruto silently listened to Hiruzaru Sarutobi's speech on the stage. Unlike other students who might be puzzled or excited, Naruto frowned slightly, keenly aware of the loopholes in Hiruzaru Sarutobi's words.

First of all, in Naruto's view, the Zhongnin Exam is said to give the major ninja villages a fair competition stage to show their respective strengths, which can prevent larger-scale conflicts, but this has not really eliminated or weakened the differences between the major ninja villages. The contradiction between them is just hiding the contradiction deeper, and it will explode sooner or later.

Of course Naruto would not naively think that war can be eliminated forever, but you should at least develop in a positive direction. Like this, everyone abides by the stereotypes. Fighting back and forth will only get worse and worse. There is no positive meaning at all. People's lives have not changed in any way.

Then, and most importantly, Naruto really didn't see that the existence of Ninja Village or the current ninjas was of any benefit to the people of the world.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said very clearly that Ninja Village is working for big figures in various countries, and ninjas are wage earners in the big group of Ninja Village, who perform various tasks for money.

The will of fire is very beautiful, but now you tell me that Konoha exists to work for the big shots, and even the cruel fighting in the Chunin exam is to please the big shots so that they can entrust more tasks.

Of course, Naruto will not completely deny the meaning of Konoha’s existence. After all, this village has really allowed many people to live a stable life, but Naruto dislikes the concerns of each ninja village, or the values ​​​​of the entire world. .

That is, a strong person owns everything, can control the lives of the weak at will, has no restrictions on the freedom of the strong, and even holds an attitude of being happy to see what happens.

The strong have a higher social status and enjoy more resources. Naruto will not say much about this. After all, the nature of people who pursue a better life cannot require everyone in the world to be a saint.

But when the freedom of a strong man loses his borders and expands infinitely, then Naruto has some opinions.

Because in Naruto's eyes, the only thing that really supports the world, or can really change the world and make the world better and better, are the countless hardworking beings.

Naruto couldn't agree with the idea that everyone practiced so hard, fought hard, and fought with their lives, but in the end it was just to better become a tool in the hands of the big man.

"Ninjas..." Naruto looked at the group of ninjas on the stage and muttered to himself: "Is it really meaningful?"

"What? Naruto-kun?" Sakura on the side heard Naruto talking to himself: "What did you just say?"

"It's nothing, it's just a sudden feeling." Naruto smiled and waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, let's listen to the third Hokage grandpa first."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, Moonlight Hayate appeared in front of everyone with a weak face and coughed non-stop. He coughed and announced that before the start of the third exam, there would be another preliminary selection to eliminate half of the people.

Yueguang Gale's words immediately caused an uproar in the exams below. Obviously, they had just gone through a cruel survival exercise, and there was actually a pre-selection before the third exam, which was never mentioned before.

However, Moonlight Gale was not moved at all, and the reason was because many important figures would come to watch the third exam, and there was a certain time limit that could not be procrastinated, so the number of people had to be reduced.

Therefore, the examinees below can only complain. After all, no matter how dissatisfied they are, they are just a group of forbearance taking the exam, and they can only obediently obey the arrangements above.

"Ahem..." Yueguang Galefeng coughed a few times covering his mouth, then looked at the crowd and said, "I understand what you said just now, if anyone is injured in the previous exam and cannot continue to fight, please apply for withdrawal immediately. Because the preliminaries are about to begin."

Yueguang Gale's words changed the faces of the people below. They didn't expect that the preliminaries would start immediately, without giving people a chance to relax.

But now that we have reached this point, even if the body is very tired, no one thinks of quitting, otherwise the previous efforts would be in vain.

Just as the audience was silent and Moonlight Gale was about to announce the start of the preliminaries, a person suddenly raised his hand.

"Sorry... that..." Pharmacist raised his hand with a smile: "I quit."

Yao Shidou's words immediately surprised the candidates around him. After all, they have come to this point, and they didn't expect that some people really chose to give up and quit.

Naruto frowned and said nothing. This guy named Dou gave him an uncomfortable feeling from the beginning to the end, and it was very unreasonable to withdraw suddenly at this point.

Even if my physical condition is not good, but under the watch of so many Jōnin teachers, if I lose in the next battle, I can just admit defeat. As Konoha's own ninja, the teachers will definitely not sit back and watch the students get seriously injured Or die tragically, and if it is someone who is unwilling to admit defeat, it is even more impossible to choose to withdraw from the exam.

Therefore, Naruto has every reason to believe that this pharmacist took part in the Zhongnin Examination probably not for promotion to Zhongnin, but for other purposes. Now that the task is completed, he can naturally choose to quit with ease.

"So no one else is quitting?"

After Yaoshidou left, Yueguang Galefeng coughed a few times: "Then I announce now that the one-on-one qualifiers will start now!"

"The qualifiers use one-on-one personal battles, that is, actual battles. There are still [-] people, so there will be eight battles, and one person will have a bye."

Moonlight Gale looked at everyone with his hands behind his back and said: "The winner can enter the third exam. There are no rules, until one party dies or loses the ability to resist, or voluntarily admits defeat."

"The electronic bulletin board on the wall will randomly refresh the two contestants in each battle." Yueguang Gaifeng pointed to the screen behind him and said, "Now immediately reveal the two contestants in the first battle."

All the candidates followed the moonlight blast and looked at the screen on the wall with their fingers. At this time, they just began to refresh the candidates for the first exam.

After a while of names flashed, the names of two people finally stopped on the screen.

Uchiha Sasuke vs Red Copper Armor!

Seeing the names on the screen, both sides of the battle walked into the arena. The Red Copper Armor was one of the people who teamed up with Yaoshidou before. For some reason, his face was covered with a cloth and he was wearing sunglasses. He looked like he was afraid of being seen to his appearance.

As the first duel was about to begin, everyone left the field and came to the viewing platform above, and Naruto and Sakura also approached Kakashi.

"Mr. Kakashi!" Sakura greeted in surprise. From the second exam until now, Sakura was actually worried. Now that she came to Kakashi's side, she finally felt relieved.

After all, in Sakura's heart, Kakashi, the teacher who led the ninja class, felt a little more secure.

"Yo! I knew you guys would be fine." Kakashi smiled and waved, "How was the exam before? Did it go well?"

"Don't mention it, Kakashi-sensei." Empress Sakura patted her chest in fear and said, "You don't know what monsters and ghosts we have encountered, if it weren't for Naruto and Sasuke, I might have died in it long ago. "

"Of course I know that Naruto and Sasuke are great, otherwise I wouldn't recommend you to take the exam with confidence." Kakashi laughed twice, turned to look at Naruto and said, "Sakura said that you have encountered many demons and ghosts. Naruto, what do you think?"

"Demons and ghosts are not counted, but I did meet a few people who are more concerned." Naruto gave Kakashi a look and said: "The most noteworthy person among them, Mr. Kakashi should already know."

Seeing Naruto's hint, Kakashi returned a reassuring look and said, "Well, I already know, don't worry."

Of course Kakashi knew what Naruto meant, and he was referring to Orochimaru who suddenly appeared in the examination room.

Konoha's S-rank rebellious ninja suddenly appeared in the village. This is a top priority. Of course, Mitarai Anko immediately reported it to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Sarutobi Hiruzen also conveyed the news to all jounin, so that everyone Always pay attention.

But as I said before, because there are many important people who will come to see the third exam, Konoha cannot directly cancel the next exam because of Orochimaru's matter, which will cause great damage to Konoha's future task entrustment. Negative impact.

In the practice field, Moonlight Gale was standing on the edge, announcing the start of the duel with a wave of his hand.

Sasuke looked at the red copper armor opposite with a sneer and said, "I hope you can bear the beating a little bit, I'm very upset right now."

Sasuke's mood at this moment is just like what he said, very unhappy. As for why he is so unhappy, of course it is because of the second exam.

From Sasuke's perspective, he was originally planning to show off his skills in the second exam, but as soon as he, Naruto, and Sakura entered the second exam venue, they met the guy named Oshemaru.

As a result, Orochimaru messed him up with a single ninjutsu, and he had to rely on Naruto's help to get rid of it. In the end, he just set fire to let Naruto assist him to force Orochimaru away.

This alone made Sasuke a little uncomfortable.
