Chapter 50 The Second Exam is Over
Chapter 50 The Second Exam is Over
”Sakura, are you okay?”
”Hehe… I was almost killed. Fortunately, Yagyu arrived in time.”
As soon as Yagyu treated Sakura, Hinata and Aburame Shino appeared in an instant.
Hinata was concerned about Sakura’s physical condition at the first time, and checked the chakra flow in her body with her eyes to see if there was any problem with her meridians.
Fortunately, Sakura did not suffer any internal injuries except for the large consumption of chakra.
So, the two girlfriends walked aside and whispered.
”Shadow Clone Technique.”
Yagyu made seals with both hands, split into three shadow clones, and then took out three storage scrolls from somewhere, and asked the shadow clones to collect the bodies of the Sound Ninja trio.
Uchiha Sasuke was a little surprised by this, and didn’t know why Yagyu wanted to collect the bodies of the enemy.
But he did not ask more questions, after all, these bodies were all Yagyu’s spoils of war.
Shino Aburame was not surprised at all, presumably Yagyu must have played his trump card again, not wanting others to know his secret.
After the shadow clone cleaned up the bodies of the Sound Ninja trio, he brought the storage scroll back to Yagyu, and handed the Book of Earth to Yagyu.
Yagyu first put away the storage scroll, then raised the Book of Earth in his hand, looked at Uchiha Sasuke and asked: “We have already collected the Book of Heaven and Earth, do you want this scroll?”
”No, we will go and grab it ourselves.”
Just as Yagyu thought, the proud Uchiha Sasuke refused without hesitation.
“Then we’ll meet at the Central Tower.”
Yagyu put away the Book of Earth, came to Hinata’s side, and said to Sakura: “Sasuke has woken up, and we should leave, after all, we are enemies now.”
”Well, we’ll see you at the Central Tower.”
Sakura was a little reluctant, but still nodded with a smile.
So, Yagyu and Hinata waved to Sakura, and disappeared with Aburame Shino in an instant.
From beginning to end, Sakura did not thank Yagyu, because of the relationship between the four of them, there was no need for this.
Team Eight stepped on the treetops and flew through the forest.
Aburame Shino looked at Yagyu and asked, “Has the 10th team found it?”
”We found it. They don’t need help. They have already collected the Book of Heaven and Earth.”
Yagyu smiled and said, “Let’s go directly to the Central Tower.”
”Okay.”
So, the 8th team rushed at full speed and arrived at the tower in the center of the Death Forest in just over ten minutes.
It took less than 24 hours for the 8th team to pass the second exam.
Since there were still more than 100 hours before the end of the second exam, the 8th team was arranged to stay in the dormitory of the Central Tower and wait for the end of the exam.
They can rest, and Konoha also provides food.
If the third exam starts right after the second exam, those candidates who arrive early will have a huge advantage.
In this way, time quickly came to four days later.
During this period, Yagyu met Gaara many times in the cafeteria, and the other party looked at him with murderous eyes.
Below Gaara’s sand armor, his expression must be excited and ferocious.
Yagyu just smiled at this.
However, his smile and the way he showed no fear of Gaara aroused the fear of Temari and Kankuro.
After the first exam, they investigated Yagyu a little bit, and were curious about how he calmed Gaara down.
After learning that the other party was the top student of this year and had been in the same class with the orphans of the Uchiha clan and the heirs of the major ninja clans for several years, they realized that this civilian genius was definitely not as simple as he seemed.
When the plan started, this person was likely to be one of the biggest enemies of the three siblings.
July 7, 60th year of Konoha, 14:30 p.m.
Yagyu and the other two received a notice that the second exam was about to end. When they arrived at the hall on the first floor of the Central Tower, it was already full of candidates.
Unlike the spotless Team 8 and Gaara’s three siblings, these examinees were either wrapped in bandages, or had tattered clothes, or were covered in dust, etc.
It was obvious that they had a hard time in the past five days.
The arrival of Yagyu and his companions instantly attracted a lot of attention.
The eyes of these people looking at them were all full of fear.
However, some people were slightly surprised after seeing Hinata’s Byakugan.
The other party has Byakugan that can see far and see through. As long as he collects the Book of Heaven and Earth, it is normal for him to reach the central tower faster than them.
”Yagyu, Hinata, this way…”
Ino’s voice came into his ears.
Yagyu looked at the crowd and saw a girl with a new hairstyle and golden twin ponytails waving at them.
Next to her, there was Sakura, who was also covered in dust and looked a little embarrassed.
Yagyu walked over with a smile.
As soon as he came to Ino’s side, Yagyu heard Ino’s coquettish complaint: “Yagyu, you went to find Sakura, why didn’t you come to find me?”
”Who said you didn’t find me?”
Yagyu helped Ino tidy up her ponytail and said with a smile: “I looked for both of you, but I only showed up when Sakura was in danger. I left with peace of mind after seeing you get the scroll.”
”Hehe… Actually, I was looking for you too. I only knew that Sakura was in danger when I met Team 7 the day before yesterday.”
”Sakura performed very well. The look she gave that Sound Ninja was very handsome, but it was a pity that I didn’t take a picture of her.”
”Don’t say it, it’s too embarrassing.”
”Yagyu, where is your camera hidden? Do you have any developed photos? Let me see!”
”Guess!”
”…”
Just as the four Yagyu were chatting, the time had come to 15 o’clock.
At this time, a large group of figures appeared on the second floor, including the examiner and invigilator of the second exam, as well as the instructors and unfamiliar jonins of each team.
The leader was the Third Hokage, one of the Five Kages.
The instructors did not come down to chat with their students, but came to the stands on both sides and gave their students a thumbs up or nodded to give affirmation.
Yuhi Kurenai was one of the ones who gave a thumbs up.
Looking at the three Yagyu students who were spotless and in sharp contrast to the other candidates, she knew that the three Yagyu students must be the first candidates to pass the test.
Among the instructors, only Hatake Kakashi came down instantly. After checking Uchiha Sasuke’s curse seal, he wanted to take Uchiha Sasuke to seal the curse seal, but was rejected by Uchiha Sasuke.
He didn’t know if there would be any exams next, and he didn’t want to be eliminated because of his absence.
Hatake Kakashi did not force it, but returned to the stands and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with the candidates.
Next, Sarutobi Hiruzen began his speech, telling the candidates about the importance of the Chunin Exam and the third exam.
The Chunin Exam is an important competition for major ninja villages to show their national strength in peacetime, and the importance lies in the third exam.
The third exam will be held in the largest square in Konoha. At that time, there will not only be a large number of spectators, but also a large number of wealthy people and nobles to watch.
Powerful villages and ninjas will be favored by them, and their villages may be chosen for commissioned tasks in the future, or their teams may be designated.
However, candidates who can participate in the third exam must be the elite among the elites.
Since there are still too many candidates who have passed the second exam, and the second exam is a team competition, there will be an individual elimination match to screen out half of the elite Genin!
Yagyu stood behind the team and counted the number of candidates.
Including him, there are a total of 24 candidates who passed the second exam.
