A convenience store opened in Naruto

Chapter 99 Behind the Joint Examination

With the infusion of chakra, the contents on the blank card suddenly appeared.

"Wow, that's amazing! How did you do that?" Sakura shouted in surprise. This was her real reaction and there was no acting involved.

There are ninjutsu that can make information appear on blank objects, but they are generally used on scrolls to convey intelligence or something.

Moreover, this kind of ninjutsu is very precious. Except for the relevant people who need to use this technology, or you have a background, otherwise, this ninjutsu will only be kept in the hands of the village’s top leaders.

Sakura had only heard of it before but had never seen it, so when Kabuto Yakushi took out the card to explain it, she didn't remember it for a moment.

It was not until the content appeared on the card that Xiaoying had a feeling of sudden enlightenment, and she felt more and more that Ye Feng was right. He was indeed an "old hand". No wonder Ye Feng asked them to be careful.

How could someone who could master this kind of jutsu fail the Chunin Exam seven times in a row?

What made Sakura curious was how Kabuto Yakushi could apply this kind of ninjutsu to a small card?

Some things are easy to enlarge but difficult to shrink. Ninjutsu that can hide information and then display it when needed is used on scrolls because the scrolls are relatively large. Although there are small ones, no matter how small they are, they are still larger than the card that Yakushi Kabuto took out.

Kabuto Yakushi didn't mean to explain, he just pointed at the information displayed on the card and said: "The candidates who took part in the Chunin Exam are all from countries near the Land of Fire, so I didn't enter the entire map of the Ninja World, only a part of it."

"But this part is enough. Do you see those green pillars on the map?"

Everyone nodded. The green pillars were clearly visible. If Ye Feng was here, he would exclaim in admiration. It was actually a three-dimensional projection. The technology tree of the Naruto world was really off track.

"The green columns represent the number of candidates from each ninja village. To make it clearer, I have marked the specific number of candidates at the bottom of the map, as well as the forehead protection symbols of each ninja village. There is also the total number in the upper right corner. Isn't it clear at a glance?"

It was obvious enough. Sasuke became more and more alert. Even Ye Feng didn't know the exact number of candidates. The guy in front of him named Kabuto Yakushi actually counted the number of candidates in the classroom in such a short time. How could such a person fail the Chunin Exam for so many times in a row?

Unless the guy in front of him had no intention of passing through and came here for the purpose of collecting information, otherwise there wouldn't be so many cards containing information.

Just based on this ability to collect information, the village leaders will make an exception and recruit this guy in front of them into the army.

If you want to be promoted to Chunin, taking exams is not the only way, the army can also be used.

If not, it can only mean that the person in front of him is either hiding very deeply and has not been noticed by the village’s senior leaders, or he has been noticed and joined the army. He participated in so many Chunin exams just to complete the tasks assigned by them and collect information about other candidates.

Which possibility it is depends on the subsequent performance of the person in front of you.

Ye Feng, who was not here, had something else to say: "It's not that I don't know, but I'm not sure how many candidates there will be for the first exam. What if someone hasn't taken the first exam yet, but has already entered the classroom, but is eliminated before the exam begins?"

"Don't talk too much, don't eat too much, things are unpredictable, so I said I don't know."

"When I say I don't know, it doesn't mean I really don't know. I just can't be sure. Why should I say something that I'm not sure of?"

"What? You said that just knowing the general idea is enough? That won't work. I, Ye Feng, am a pragmatic person. If your plan fails because of my wrong information, won't you blame me afterwards?"

"No? Don't be so full of yourself when talking to you. I used to say that I would get married and have kids before I turned 20, but I'm still single."

"Let me tell you, this is how we behave..."

Even though the person is not here, he can still narrate for so long through others (the author). If the person were here, then there would be no need to take the exam and I would just listen to Teacher Ye talk about his life principles.

Teacher Ye's final conclusion is that rubbing your fingers is useless, you have to say it clearly, throw, can't you treat me to a few more meals? If I don't eat barbecue, I can also eat ramen.

"Why do you think the Chunin Exams have to be held in all countries together?" Kabuto Yakushi asked a question that was known to Sasuke and his two companions, as well as Neji and his two companions who were observing the situation in the classroom, but unknown to the others.

Seeing that no one could answer, Kabuto Yakushi showed off his knowledge and gave everyone a brief explanation: "First, it is to deepen the friendship between countries. Second, it is said to be to jointly improve the abilities of ninjas."

In order to find out more, Sakura pretended not to understand and asked, "It is said that?"

"Yes!" Yakushi Kabuto said seriously, "The real purpose is to confirm the level of ninjas from neighboring countries and try to balance the power of each country so as to achieve a state of equal strength."

This is an open unspoken rule. The top leaders of various countries have always known it, or in other words, any ninja with a little more experience knows it. Those who don't know are either stupid or just graduated from school and have not seen the world yet.

The ninja world has never been at peace. From the Warring States period when each ninja village fought against each other to the current situation where the five major ninja villages have joined forces, it seems that the world has moved from chaos to order, but the dark current has never stopped, otherwise the previous three ninja world wars would not have happened.

Why does it happen? It's all for profit.

Your territory is large and prosperous, while my territory is small and barren. I am powerful and you are not, so I will fight you and take over your territory.

Although Konoha does not actively invade, it cannot resist others who have such ideas. If it does not demonstrate its strength from time to time, others will think that Konoha is weak and can be bullied.

How to demonstrate it becomes a problem. Directly beating them is not an option. As the leader of the five major ninja villages, Konoha cannot get the reputation of bullying the weak. They have to save face.

Indirect attack is still possible, the Joint Chunin Exam is a good name.

What is war about? Apart from money, it is all about fighting strength. High-end fighting strength alone is not enough. Unless you have the power to influence the entire battle situation, it will not be of much use.

Low-end combat power is the most numerous, but is also relatively the most useless. A single ultimate move from high-end combat power could wipe them out.

The rest are mid-range combat forces. Although their positions are neither high nor low, they play the greatest role. They charge into battle and go deep behind enemy lines. Wherever there is danger, they will be there.

The general perception among the various ninja villages in the current ninja world is that the Chunin is a mid-level fighter!

The Chunin Exams are held frequently, twice a year, in order to cast a wide net and catch more fish. You never know when one or two talented people will emerge in any of these exams.

Thus, the Joint Chunin Exam came into being.

Aren't you going to hold the Chunin Exam? Well, let's do it together. I'll provide the money and the venue, and you just need to provide the manpower.

What, you don't want to come?

You have to come, don't you? Do you look down on me? Do you want to attack our village? Since you want to attack our village, I will kill you first to prevent future troubles.

Would those weak ninja villages dare not come? If they didn't, there might be strange ninjas wandering around their villages the next day. Without any soldiers, they would scare some timid people in the village to flee, causing the village's economy to decline.

Not coming? If they don't come, they can't even carry out the mission of leaving the village. Even if the outsiders are willing to let the employers into the village, even if their people can go out, who can guarantee that the people who go out to carry out the mission can complete the mission smoothly without any obstacles?

Who can guarantee that those who go out on missions will not be assassinated?

Now everyone can carry out their own tasks without disturbing each other. Even if they occasionally wear the same clothes, they can report to their superiors and let them make the decision, so the people carrying out the tasks will not be in danger.

This situation was decided by the five major ninja villages. If anyone dares to break this rule, it would be fine if they are not caught, but if they are discovered, it will be regarded as a provocation by the five major ninja villages, a sign that they are not taken seriously, and then there will be various situations such as economic blockade, military suppression, assassination, etc.

If only one ninja village takes action, the other ninja villages will also take action. No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat. The strong ninja village will eat the meat, and the weak ninja village will drink the soup. In the end, they can get some profit.

To be honest, apart from the five major ninja villages, the other ninja villages would not dare to host the joint Chunin Exam even if they had the financial and material resources, because they were not strong enough to guarantee the safety of the examinees during the exam, nor could they guarantee the fairness of the exam.

Even the five major ninja villages cannot guarantee the latter point, but compared with other ninja villages, at least the five major ninja villages will not be too greedy. Even if there is some bias, it will not affect the general direction of the final result of the exam.

Holding the Joint Chunin Exam will definitely not be a loss in terms of money. You can see that the village has been as lively as a festival these days.

As a lone ranger, you can only focus on improving your own strength, but as the Kage of a ninja village, you must be responsible for the people of your village.

How to be responsible?

It depends on the money. Having money is associated with a good life. If the people in the village are rich, your position will definitely be more stable. Even if a few kittens jump out, it will not affect the overall development of the village, let alone you.

There are risks as well. During the Joint Chunin Exams, there will be a lot of people. When there are a lot of people, people with ulterior motives will sneak in. This is inevitable. No matter how much you check, it will be useless. All you can say is that during this period, you should strengthen the village's defenses in preparation for any eventuality.

However, the benefits outweigh the risks, so even though they know there will be trouble, the five major ninja villages will still take turns hosting the joint Chunin Exam and will not be interrupted unless there are special circumstances.

This year's Joint Chunin Exam was Konoha's turn, and many people responded, with many ninja villages sending people to participate.

Among them, there was a red-haired girl wearing glasses, hiding timidly in an unnoticed corner.

The girl's eyes are very complicated. There is confusion, fear, worry, loneliness and many negative emotions. You can see them in her eyes. But there is one thing that a human being should not lack, but she does not have it.

hope!

You can't see a glimmer of hope in her eyes. She is just alone, staying in a corner where no one cares about her, with her legs curled up and her head buried deeply, as if everything in the outside world has nothing to do with her.

Little did she know, two people had already noticed her.

Sasuke exchanged a silent look with Neji, and when he saw the other party nod, he withdrew his gaze and turned to ask Kabuto Yakushi, "Do you have a card with detailed personal information?"

He wanted to know more information. Although Ye Feng had already said that except for a few individuals, no one else was his match, Sasuke still wanted to be more cautious to avoid any unexpected disaster.

As for the game between the major ninja villages, it was not what he cared about.

"Yes," asked Kabuto Yakushi, "Is there anyone you care about?"

"Have!"

Ye Feng did not tell him who his biggest opponent was. Maybe the guy in front of him had one, and this was what Sasuke was planning.

Pharmacist Dou didn't ask any more questions. He straightened the cards on the ground and said, "Although the information of the candidates this time is not complete, I have saved it all, including yours, of course."

"Tell me the information you know about the person you care about, no matter what it is, tell me and I will find it for you."

Sasuke frowned, "What if there isn't?"

"Nothing? You mean, you don't know that person's information?" Yakushi Kabuto scratched his forehead, a little distressed, "No information at all? Even just a little bit is fine."

Sasuke shook his head, he really had no idea.

Because of the existence of Ye Feng, a person who should not exist, Sasuke and his companions stayed in the store the whole time and did not meet Gaara and his companions. Naturally, there was no question of Sasuke being particularly concerned about Gaara and wanting to compete with him.

Xiao Li did meet him in advance, but they were all familiar with each other and had a certain understanding of each other's strengths. What Kabuto Yakushi knew might not be as much as what Sasuke knew, so Sasuke naturally would not check Xiao Li's information.

Seeing Sasuke shaking his head, Kabuto Yakushi pretended to be helpless and said, "Then there is nothing I can do. You don't even know who you are looking for, so it is even more impossible for me to help you find it."

"What if I want to find the strongest candidate among this year's candidates, or in other words, the ones who deserve the most attention?"
