After Kurama Yakumo easily defeated Hinata Neji and won the preliminaries, the remaining qualifying matches continued in an orderly manner and ended quickly.
Except for Kurama Yakumo replacing Hyuga Neji in the original work, there were no more unexpected results. There were still nine people who advanced to the official competition.
The sun sets.
In a corner of Konoha, two figures were standing there, while the other was half-kneeling there, seemingly reporting something to the standing figure.
One of them turned out to be Orochimaru, and the other was Kabuto Yakushi.
"That's the general situation. The preliminaries have ended successfully and the official competition is about to begin..." At this point, Yakushi Kabuto paused for a moment, raised his head and looked at Orochimaru, with a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
"By the way, I was hiding in the ANBU of Konoha, and I also found out an unexpected information. It seems that confidential information in Konoha has been stolen, and even the contents of the sealed book were leaked... It is said that the person who did it seems like It’s the God of Ninja World, Roja!”
Hearing Yakushi Kabuto's words, Orochimaru's originally calm expression suddenly became rippled, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, but he did not speak.
After Yakushi Kabuto finished speaking, seeing that Orochimaru didn't respond, he paused for a while, and then took the initiative to ask: "Sir Orochimaru, the water in Konoha seems to be too turbid, and I can't see the situation at all. It's hard for me to analyze it. There are more things, and any serious accident seems possible."
"In this case, will your plan continue as planned?"
Kabuto looked at Orochimaru, with a hint of hesitation on his face.
Orochimaru looked at Kabuto with a deep look and said: "Of course... continue..."
"Speaking of which, that old guy has gone through several ninja wars and encountered the crisis of Konoha's destruction, but he has survived countless times and has lived until now. However, he has lived long enough. I don't know how to remove his Head, would it be interesting.”
Kabuto stood up, lowered his head slightly, and pushed up his glasses.
"It seems to me that you haven't made up your mind yet. In today's ninja world, the model dominated by Kirigakure Village cannot be shaken. As long as the god of the ninja world still sits in the ninja world, there will be almost no one in the ninja world. Dare to shake Kirigakure’s position.”
"Even if you take this opportunity to overthrow Konoha and trigger another round of ninja war, I'm afraid it will be limited to a very small area. It is even possible that Kirigakure Village will directly end the war as soon as it takes action."
Orochimaru looked at Kabuto, suddenly smiled, and said: "Kabuto, your senses are too keen."
As he spoke, Orochimaru turned his head and looked at the distant sky with deep eyes, and said as if talking to himself: "Kirigakure will not interfere with my plan this time."
Kabuto was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Orochimaru in surprise, but Orochimaru didn't say anything. He just looked at the sky with a pair of snake eyes, looking in the direction of the center of Konoha Village.
"Having said that, I still have something I need you to do."
"Please give instructions, Orochimaru-sama."
"Bring Sasuke to me as soon as possible."
"yes."
Kabuto didn't talk too much. When he didn't understand Orochimaru's inner thoughts and felt that there was information that he didn't understand, he decisively chose to be reticent.
…
Kabuto's plan to plunder Sasuke ended in failure after being blocked by Kakashi, and failed to plunder Sasuke directly, but Orochimaru was not in a hurry about it.
At the same time, on the other side, where Kirigakure Yuhiko and others lived.
This is a special small courtyard. This small courtyard is a living and resting place specially prepared for the leading jounin and candidates from various ninja villages who come to take the chunin exam.
At this time, in the small courtyard, Yuhi Hong and Kurama Yakumo were standing there with respectful faces. In front of them, Roja was standing with his hands behind his back, talking about something.
"Okay, the last thing I want to say is that some unexpected things may happen during the official competition in one month. Don't interfere then, just watch from the sidelines."
"yes."
Kurenai Yuhi nodded directly and responded, while Kurama Yakumo was a little surprised and subconsciously tilted his head and asked, "An unexpected situation?"
"Yes, it will probably be a big drama. I won't go into details..."
With a profound expression on his face, Roja turned around, walked a few steps, and disappeared outside the courtyard.
…
A month passed quickly.
The third official test of the Chunin Exams held by Konoha was held as scheduled without any surprises, just like the original work.
Celebrities and elites from all over the world gathered in Konoha.
The venue for the official examination is a huge martial arts arena, or a huge arena. There is a huge field in the middle and surrounded by extremely high stands. It is difficult for ordinary attacks to cross such high stands.
Moreover, even if there is a kunai or shuriken, or some ninjutsu or the like, and it crosses the stands and falls towards the audience, it will be instantly stopped by the barriers of ANBU ninjas scattered around.
certainly.
This barrier is far from the level of the Four Purple Flame Formation. It is just an ordinary small barrier, which can block a kunai shuriken, as well as small ninjutsu and the like.
At this time, eight of the nine genin who won the qualifiers, except Uchiha Sasuke, were all here. They were standing in the huge arena below, lined up, facing the countless spectators in the stands. .
The examiner of the third chuunin exam, Shiranui Genma, was standing in front of a kind of genin, holding a slender senbon in his mouth, with a serious and serious expression on his face.
The battle list for the third Chunin Exam has already been announced. Although compared to the original work, the only difference is that Hyuga Neji is replaced by Kurama Yakumo, but the battle list is completely different from the original work.
The character Kurama Yakumo is fighting is not Uzumaki Naruto, but Uchiha Sasuke!
and.
It’s still the first game!
But at this time, Uchiha Sasuke still hadn't arrived.
High up in the stands, this is the most conspicuous position in the arena besides the ring below. The person sitting there is also the person who has held the most power in Konoha for decades, the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
He was wearing a formal windbreaker and a Hokage hat, sitting on a seat.
"Haven't you found Sasuke yet?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the audience, calculated the time in his mind, frowned without any trace, and asked a jounin on the side in a low voice.
The jounin said solemnly: "A team composed of ANBU has been sent to look for him, but... maybe he has been given to Orochimaru... In that case, he will definitely not be found."
"… I see."
Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes and lowered his head slightly.
When he raised his head again, he showed a look of contemplation, tilted his head and looked to one side, and said: "Speaking of which, Feng Ying should have arrived by now... huh?!"
Just when he was thinking about when the Kazekage would arrive, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression suddenly froze. The majestic Hokage suddenly lost his composure. He was almost like a frightened wild cat, and the hairs all over his body almost stood up.
All because he saw a person, who was walking towards this side with a smile on his face and looked harmless.
That person once swept across Kumogakure.
That man once swept across Iwagakure.
That man had been in charge of Kirigakure.
The man who destroyed Konoha.
Surprisingly, it is the one who is feared and awed by countless ninjas in the entire ninja world... the god of the ninja world, Roja!
Roja just appeared on the Konoha Chuunin Examination Arena, walking slowly towards the highest stand here!
