The sound ninja trio's own strength can only be considered above average among the genin participating this time. If the protagonist and his team are not included in the rapid improvement, they can be said to be the group most likely to defeat the promotion competition.
But even so, it is still just a dispensable chess piece of Orochimaru, and it is natural to be abandoned at the appropriate time, and now it is natural that Le Yuan wants a genin spot. For Orochimaru, Le Yuan's value is infinitely higher than that of his three subordinates.
The most important point, and the reason why Orochimaru did not use force, was that his intuition told him that there was no absolute certainty to keep Le Yuan. During the two years of missing, Le Yuan, whom he had always regarded as a test subject, had unknowingly grown or turned into a being that even he needed to worry about.
And now Sak and Jin, who are in the same group as Le Yuan, are even more embarrassed and dare not breathe. After all, the power displayed by Le Yuan is not much worse than that of their Lord Orochimaru. More importantly, the guy who is nitpicking is... He has set an example for them.
The next night after Le Yuan replaced Toss in the Sound Ninja Team, Le Yuan, who was wandering in Konoha, was challenged by Toss. And Toss's overestimating behavior even caused the followers Jin and Sak behind Le Yuan to shake their heads secretly. After all, Sak had already tried Le Yuan's mental oppression personally, and they were not at the genin level at all. Beings that can be fought against.
And when Le Yuan looked at Toss who was eager to try, he thought of far more things than Jin and Sark. Toss would come to challenge so blindly. There is no doubt that he was not prudent at all in making a decision. It must have been caused by Orochimaru fanning the flames from behind. The purpose is nothing more than to test the bottom line of Le Yuan's strength. In a sense, it is also convenient for future attacks.
"Oh - why don't you love yourself so much! Forget it, come with me first, this is not the place to do anything!"
Le Yuan intentionally or unintentionally chopped towards the edge of the haystack behind Toss. Perhaps others did not notice, but Le Yuan clearly saw the sound and shadow of a small blue snake with human eyes. These were undoubtedly Orochimaru's eyes and ears.
When Le Yuan brought the three sound ninjas to an abandoned training ground in Konoha, Jin and Sak finally understood what cruelty meant, and also understood why their Lord Orochimaru valued Le Yuan so much. , letting him airborne to become the captain of their three-person team.
Le Yuan and Toss only had five minutes to fight, and Toss had always been the main attacker. The [Sound Penetration] in his hand, which was used to numb the opponent's hearing, kept attacking Le Yuan. At the same time, he detonated talismans, bitter Wu Geng launched attacks non-stop.
But even in such an intensive attack, it still did not cause any damage to Le Yuan. Le Yuan relied on seemingly simple footwork to dodge most of the attacks, and only made one counterattack at the end of the competition.
That's right, Le Yuan solved the entire battle with just one attack. It took less than one thousandth of the entire duel time, and Toss, who had always been the strongest among the three, was completely wiped out from this world by Le Yuan's fist from a distance of more than ten meters.
And when Le Yuan ended the battle, the sight of the psychic snake that had been hiding on one side also disappeared. Regarding the eyes and ears that had been monitoring him, Le Yuan did not carry out any sniping at all. After all, it was unrealistic to want Orochimaru to temporarily feel at ease without exposing anything.
July 1, the 60th year of the Shinobi Calendar. For Konoha in the Land of Fire, it is already early summer. But more importantly, the annual Chunin Examination will be held in Konoha, the head of the five major ninja villages. This time, the Chunin Examination has attracted hundreds of genin from various major ninja villages to participate.
Le Yuan took the other two sound ninjas to the registration location for the first chunin exam - the ninja school that gave birth to countless Konoha ninjas.
According to the rules of the Chuunin Exam, a group of three Genin who submit the recommendation form before four o'clock in the afternoon on the 1st will be qualified to participate in this Chunin Exam.
The Oto Ninja Village that Le Yuan temporarily joined can be said to be a special case among special cases. Due to the special nature of the village, there is no special ninja school, so naturally there is no opportunity to graduate and become a genin. Fortunately, the method of promotion to chunin is the same as that of other ninja villages, so Le Yuan can replace Toss who has completely evaporated before the exam begins.
Le Yuan, who came to Konoha early, took this opportunity to see the twelve young Konoha heroes who have just grown up. I have to say that they are still too young, whether they are the Ningji trio who are one year older than the protagonist or the super-intelligent ones. Shikamaru is still very young, and is not worth mentioning in terms of strength or experience.
This live version of "Naruto" really made Le Yuan a little excited. After all, the feeling of participating in it in person is more exciting than being separated by a big screen.
"Sir, do you think we should continue..."
Jin, who had just arrived from the first floor to the second floor, looked at the group of genin gathered around and quickly said to Le Yuan beside him. The place where you take the Chunin Exam is Room 301, and the "301" room that appears on the second floor is undoubtedly a Xibei guy, but except for a small group of guys with really limited abilities, most people still hold on to it. Watch the excitement here.
Le Yuan looked at the undisguised chakra aura on the house plate and couldn't help but shook his head. The genin who didn't notice such an obvious reminder would just be a loser even if he came to take the exam. After all, ninjas didn't even have the most basic observation skills. How can you survive in this dangerous world
After Le Yuan looked at the trio of protagonists, namely Foxbeard Idiot, Bingshan Facial Paralysis, and Double Personality Pink Hair, who were coming up from downstairs, he had no intention of staying any longer. It would be a bit of a loss to join in the fun now.
"Let's go! There's nothing lively to see here. After all, this is Konoha Village. Stay safe!"
After hearing Le Yuan's words, neither Jin nor the frightened Sak stopped talking and followed Le Yuan steadily towards the destination. But before entering Room 301, a Konoha hedgehog lazily holding a **** novel and reading intently appeared in front of Le Yuan.
Copy Ninja Hatake Kakashi, this can be considered one of Le Yuan's acquaintances, but the one he is familiar with is Hatake Kakashi from another world. In another world, Kakashi did not sink to this level. On the contrary, the hot-blooded duo formed by Metkai often had to deal with Le Yuan. Although his personality has changed, his strength has not fallen. On the contrary, it is better than now. Kakashi is no less generous.
"Um?"
Kakashi, who was reading the novel, also felt the gaze from Le Yuan, but when he raised his head, he did not see the recalling look in Le Yuan's eyes just now. As he didn't know Raku Yuan at all, he just stayed on Raku Yuan's face for a while. After all, Raku Yuan's face that was somewhat similar to his teacher Minato Namikaze still gave him a sense of familiarity.
"Don't look, our battlefield is still ahead, don't cause me any trouble later!"
Le Yuan glanced at Sak, who was behind him on his left. Among the two, Sak had the most bad temper and was the one who was most likely to get into trouble. Although Sak felt uncomfortable with the way Le Yuan looked at him, he could only nod as he was too weak to speak.
Le Yuan came to door 301 and pushed the door open. Suddenly there was a hot breath coming from inside the door. This was not related to the temperature, but the burning feeling caused by pure gaze. Although Le Yuan and the others arrived not too late, many genin had already arrived before them.
Le Yuan took the lead and led the other two people to sit down in a remote place. After all, this was not an animation, so there was no guarantee that there would be no accidents. So Le Yuan planned to give the two of them a make-up lesson before the exam started to prevent them from holding him back.
"Listen, once you encounter a problem that you can't solve, don't give up or anything. In short, leave it to me if you can't solve it. You just need to hold on for me until the end. And this exam You..."
While Le Yuan was teaching Jin and Sak, his eyes couldn't help but glance at someone. He was also the only one in the group who knew his true identity, but he hadn't seen Le Yuan in more than two years and immediately planned to say hello.
"Hey, long time no see, how good it has been lately!"
Le Yuan's body passed through countless ninjas, and like a ghost, he came behind a white-haired young man, and slapped his back with his right hand.
The person being photographed stepped back and suddenly stepped back. When he saw that the person photographing him was Le Yuan, his eyes showed an expression as if he had almost seen a ghost. The person Rakuan greeted was none other than Yakushi Kabuto, the person who first saw Rakuan lying in the nutrition tank with Orochimaru.
Kabuto Yakushi was not particularly impressed by Raku Yuan. After all, Orochimaru was not very angry when Raku Yuan disappeared. That was one of the few anger Kabuto Yakushi saw from Orochimaru. What surprised Kabuto Yakushi even more was the sound-nin forehead protector on Raku Yuan's head.
"Haha, it seems like we are meeting for the first time. Do we know each other?"
Kabuto Yakushi is indeed a professional spy. Although he was surprised by Le Yuan's appearance, he quickly concealed his expression. It was impossible to tell that he had seen Le Yuan before, and the surprise just now was completely out of fright.
"Ah, you forgot that you took me to play in Konoha a few days ago. Didn't you treat me as a treat? Didn't you, Yakushi Kabuto?"
When Le Yuan called out Yakushi Kabuto's name, the opposite Yakushi Kabuto's eyes hid behind his glasses for a moment, and then quickly hid them again. Then he smiled and greeted Le Yuan as if he had just remembered.
However, soon the chattering noise of the protagonist and his group interrupted the two people's insincerity, and as the "senior", Kabuto Yakushi began to bluff people with his set of ninja cards.
