Naruto: All depends on Kyuubi C

On the surface, the conflict between Sunagakure Village and Kirigakure Village is far greater than that between them and Konoha Village.

After all, both Sunagakure and Kirigakure have been in alliance with Konoha for at least a year.

But the relationship between Sunagakure and Kirigakure is not an alliance.

Therefore, most of the forces also believe that this alliance between the three major ninja villages is mainly coordinated by Konoha in the middle, using it as an alliance formed by Big Brother.

In other words, in a sense, the more tense Kirigakure and Sunagakure are, the more important and status Konoha becomes.

When two people who have nothing to do with each other or even have an enmity sit at the same dining table, it can only mean that the host who is treating the guests has enough dignity.

At this time, Sandai coughed a few times, stood up and came to the front of the viewing platform.

Although his voice was not loud, even very old and weak, it was able to suppress the noisy chatter present and clearly conveyed his voice to everyone's ears: "Distinguished guest, as the Hokage, I would like to On behalf of Konoha, I would like to sincerely thank you all for coming! As you all know, the three-village joint selection chunin exam is being held this time..."

After the Third Hokage spoke the official words above, the examiner of the third exam, who was also an old acquaintance of the candidates, Tsukiko Hayate and another special jounin, Shiranui Genma, also came to the candidates at this time.

"Well, let me briefly introduce the rules of the third exam. The first is a one-on-one competition..."

"... When ninjas fight, life or death matters, but it is a test after all, so it is best to do it to the point. These are the rules of this competition."

After Shiranui Genma finished speaking, he asked the candidates to take stock of their surroundings to prepare.

The candidates also noticed that there was something similar to a barrier seal on the corner of the field. In addition to the referee, there were several Konoha ninjas standing on the corner of the field for maintenance.

Obviously, thanks to the earth-shattering ninjutsu performed by a certain Uchiha candidate in the second examination room, Konoha has done a very good job in protection.

The venue of this third examination room is not the circular arena used in previous years, but a place that was expanded on the edge of Konoha within this month.

Not only is it much larger than the original arena, but it also has a lot of trees and other environmental facilities for the ninjas to perform.

"...Ahem, so Uchiha Sasuke for the first competition...hasn't come yet?"

Moonlight Hayate frowned, the time is almost up, if it times out...

"If it times out, it will be considered a forfeit."

Shiranui Genma, biting a Senbon as a toothpick, glanced at the door and saw no one approaching.

However, as a candidate for the first exam, Neji raised his head at this moment and slowly closed his eyes: "Referee, let's start normally."

"Huh?" Yueguang Gale was startled.

"He has come."

As soon as Neji finished speaking, the next moment, fallen leaves from nowhere on the playing field were spinning in a whirlwind.

Then a young man wearing a black shirt flashed out of the leaves and appeared in front of everyone.

That cool look, aura, and slightly unruly eyes... it's none other than Sasuke Uchiha!

Xiang Rin’s surprised eyes, the wary eyes of Gaara and others, and the somewhat frightened gaze of the Snow Country Daimyo who did not want to be named at a certain viewing platform...

Only Ningji's eyes narrowed slightly——

[He seems to be a little different somewhere. 】

"I see, is this the scope of Byakugan's observation?"

Shiranui Genma shrugged. As a Jonin, he could not see the scene, but Hyuga Neji had already noticed it in advance.

"Have you learned all of Kakashi-senpai's bad habits?"

Moonlight Hayate looked at Sasuke with a chuckle.

But as referees, they won't say much.

After all, Uchiha Sasuke was not really late, and showing up as a show-off didn't violate the rules at all.

Moreover, because he almost caught up with the timeline of the first test, his appearance attracted the attention of most people, causing the atmosphere of the first test, which was already attracting attention, to heat up. stand up.

"Do you need me to explain the rules to you again?"

"Need not."

Sasuke nodded to his friends, and then responded to the referee, "The rules of the competition are always very simple."

"You're so at ease, kid."

Shiranui Genma actually felt that he admired Sasuke.

Letting the others retreat temporarily, the two Jonin retreated, leaving the field to Uchiha Sasuke and Hinata Neji.

The first battle between the two families in Konoha, which was once famous in the ninja world and was the successor of two major pupil techniques, was the focus of many forces.

"The Uchiha clan is said to be full of geniuses, but now it has completely declined. As the last descendant of the clan, if he loses today, the Uchiha clan will completely become a thing of the past."

"I also specifically inquired before coming here. That Hyuga Neji should be the No. 1 of the younger generation of the Hyuga clan in Konoha. It is said that he has been designated as the head of the branch family at a young age."

"real or fake?"

"Then Hinata really has a better chance of winning."

Everyone was talking, but their voices could not reach the ears of the two people on the court.

"What happened before?"

Neji looked at Sasuke and asked without hiding his concern.

"It's a bit surprising, but it's okay. I only saw Hinata just now. Isn't that Naruto guy here?"

Sasuke looked at Neji and asked casually.

"It shouldn't be there, at least I didn't see it."

"That means I'm really gone..."

After the communication was completed, the two fell into silence at the same time.

The two of them didn't even put up a front, looking like they had nothing to talk about after a small talk.

And at the next moment, the referee's voice sounded: "Three villages' joint selection Chunin exam, the first round of the third exam, Uchiha Sasuke versus Hyuga Neji, begins!"

The moment the last word fell, everyone seemed to feel a gentle breeze blowing, and then——

"Back to the days!"

"Chidori!"

The two figures collided instantly, and the moment the dazzling chakra came into contact, the violent air explosion caused by it resounded like thunder throughout the arena, making the ears of everyone watching ringing!

Even some of the rocks that exploded and flew directly flew to the protective barrier of the viewing platform at a considerable distance, causing the barrier to tremble!

"what's the situation?"

"What just happened?"

Several powerful men blinked and didn't even come back to their senses.

Genin fights were not uncommon on weekdays, but when was this the case?

Damn it, shouldn't the genin be able to just fly around with kunai and shurikens and be done with it?

"Hey, are you so intense right from the start?"

Shiranui Genma's face was a little solemn. He was not worried that the battle between the two would not be exciting enough, but he was a little worried about whether he, the referee, would be able to intervene when they got serious.

That's right, because they all saw that Hyuga Neji and Uchiha Sasuke were extraordinary in strength, and they did not treat them like genin or chunin.

After the first collision on the field, the two people stopped and looked at each other. It was obvious that the exchange just now was just an appetizer to say hello.

"Eh? This is just to say hello???"

Xiang Rin, who was on the preparation table, was stunned. She couldn't believe her ears and struggled to move her eyes away from Sasuke on the field and looked at Hinata who was explaining.

"Well, Sasuke-kun and Neji-san said that their competition a year ago ended with these two moves. After that, they were unwilling to compete seriously again..." Hinata nodded. Head, recalling what they had said before, "Now starting with the same moves shows that this is the beginning of their continuation of that duel."
