Chapter 56: The lustful immortal Jiraiya
Chapter 56: The lustful immortal Jiraiya
After Sasuke finished the competition, the groups began to fight. Although the order was a little different, just like the original work, the ones who should qualify still qualified, but there was one more Wu Liang than before. What's more interesting is that the old rivals Ino and Sakura still faced off, but Sakura learned the strange power earlier than in the original work. However, when defeating Ino, Sakura abstained, which means that neither party passed the preliminaries. , the reason given by Sakura is very simple. She said that she will be a medical ninja in the future, and it has nothing to do with chunin and genin.
After the preliminaries were over, Sandai looked at the candidates below and said: "The candidates who passed the preliminaries are Senju Ryo, Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Sandstorm Gaara, Kankuro, Temari, Hyuga Neji, and Aburame Shino. , Nara Shikamaru. Since there is one more player, a bye system may be adopted in the finals, or whoever among you is willing to abstain can rotate at that time, depending on the situation.
So, next I will explain the content of the competition. The official competition will show everyone's battle to the audience. I hope that representatives from all countries will show their strength without any regrets. Therefore, the official competition will start in one month. At the same time, this is also to give everyone a corresponding preparation time. As for what is going on, it means that this is to inform the daimyo of each country and the shadow qualifiers of each village that the film preliminaries have ended, and to invite them to come and watch. This is also a preparation time for you. It’s time to understand each other’s opponents, and it’s time to analyze the opponent’s intelligence to increase your chances of winning.
At the same time, for the sake of fairness and justice, the injuries sustained during the qualifiers can also be well treated or used to improve themselves during this month. "
After hearing what the third generation old man said, Wu Liang wanted to laugh. If he knew that someone would abstain one after another during the official competition, his expression would be wonderful. Moreover, one of the three ninjas, Toad Sage Jiraiya, should have returned to Konoha. Well, this way Naruto's ball rolling skill tree can be activated.
The third-generation old man was not worried at all about what the kid below was thinking. He saw that they stopped talking and then said: "Therefore, I plan to let everyone disperse on the spot, but before that, there is one thing before the official competition. You have to fight to do it.”
The impatient Naruto wanted to go back to training as soon as possible, so he said: "What's going on? I have to go back to training quickly."
The third generation looked at the active Naruto and said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry, you first draw a lot from the box held by the examiner Anko."
After Sandai finished speaking, he motioned to Hongdou to draw lots for everyone. After everyone had finished drawing, Wu Liang took his own blank lot and said, "Aha, it seems I have better luck."
The Third Hokage glanced at Wu Liang and said: "Then, the numbers in your hands will determine the order and opponents of your battle, 1 vs. 2, 3 vs. 4, and so on, and then there will be a total of four groups. Senju Liang because he drew With a blank draw, he will have a bye in the first game, and he will join the battle in the second game. Each of the three players will play two games in the finals, and they will be ranked according to the number of wins. So, does it make sense?"
Shikamaru stood up at this time and said: "Hokage-sama, I have a question. According to the rules, there is only one winner in this way. Does it mean that only one person in the Chunin competition can be promoted to Chunin?"
However, the third generation said with a smile: "No, the examiners including myself and the Kazekage will watch this exam together with the daimyo and ninja leaders from various countries. The examiners will make evaluations for you by watching the elimination rounds. Those who believe that they have the qualifications and qualifications to become a chuunin can still become a chunin even if they lose the first match."
After hearing this, Temari also said: "So, that means everyone here has the possibility of becoming a chuunin, right?"
The third generation nodded and said: "Well, yes, but it is possible that none of them can be promoted. Winning in the knockout round is equivalent to giving yourself a chance to perform. Do you understand?"
Sandai looked at the people who were not talking, smiled and said: "Well, see you in a month, everyone is dismissed."
When Wu Liang and others really wanted to leave except for the Central Tower, Kakashi appeared next to everyone and said: "Hey, everyone except Sakura has advanced, so let's figure out how to spend the remaining month. Within this month, all major allies will stop issuing mission requests to participating team members, which means that you can practice seriously in the next month. By the way, who is your opponent?"
After hearing what Kakashi said, Naruto grabbed his hair and said, "I forgot, I am number one, I even forgot to see who is number two."
However, Wu Liang said: "If I remember correctly, he is Hyuga Neji, your brother-in-law."
After hearing this, Naruto said with a big head: "How could this happen? When I watched his battle, he was very strong. Why did I meet him as soon as he came on stage?"
Sasuke looked at him with disdain and said, "My opponent is Gaara, the Sand Ninja. Did you say anything?"
Kakashi heard their conversation from the side, turned around and looked at Wu Liangdao: "What about you?"
Hearing Kakashi ask himself, Wu Liang smiled and said: "Sorry, I got a bye in the first round."
"This"
Kakashi's eyes widened and he said, "You are so lucky."
"That's right," Wu Liang said proudly.
Kakashi looked at Naruto and Sasuke who were arguing in front of him and said: "Sasuke, you can practice with me this month. As for Naruto, well~ I saw a person today. He should be suitable to be your teacher."
When Naruto heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Is he really that powerful?"
"Well, let me think about it. I saw him in the hot spring street when I first came here. Come on, I will take you to see him first."
After Kakashi finished speaking, he led a few people towards the hot spring street.
When Wu Liang and the others entered the hot spring street, they saw a middle-aged uncle with long white hedgehog hair and a red mantle lying on the roof of the hot spring shop opposite Zhang, looking at the bath below with a lewd expression.
As for Naruto, as soon as he saw the wretched uncle peeping in the hot springs, he immediately created shadow clones to surround him. Sasuke was even ready to make a move, but only Wu Liang and Kakashi looked calm.
"Hey, this is a familiar opening. If the lustful immortal doesn't lie on the roof of the hot spring, would he still be called the lustful immortal?" Wu Liang thought to himself.
"You seem to be used to it. Do you do this often?" Kakashi said sarcastically when he saw Wu Liang standing there with a calm face and not going to surround him like Naruto and Sasuke.
"Haha, there's no way they can succeed. One of the three ninjas, the lecherous Sennin Jiraiya, is not so easy to catch."
As if reflecting Wu Liang's words, when Naruto's shadow clone surrounded Jiraiya, Jiraiya also discovered the kid who wanted to catch him, so he stepped out of the way behind Naruto's real body and appeared with Naruto in his hand. In front of Kakashi, he said: "Hey, who am I? It turns out it was you who led the team to arrest me."
Then he dropped Naruto, kicked Sasuke who was about to attack him, and said, "Kid, don't be too troublesome. I'm talking to your leading jounin."
As for Naruto, who was just thrown at Kakashi's feet by Jiraiya, he said with an uneasy expression on his face: "If I hadn't just participated in the Chunin Selection Preliminaries, how could you have caught him so easily?"
As for Naruto's words, Sasuke also felt the same. After all, he was very tired after being here for so many days.
When Jiraiya heard this, he also became interested and said: "Oh, it turns out that he is a brat who took the chunin exam. So if you don't go to training at this time, why are you here to catch me? Do you think this is a training ground?"
However, Kakashi didn't take Jiraiya's teasing seriously and said: "Master Toad, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, Jiraiya-sama, we came to you specifically to ask you to teach me this The incompetent student is the kid you threw on the ground. Well, you should know who he is."
Hearing this, Jiraiya sensed Naruto's seal, and then said, "Could it be that he belongs to Minato?"
However, Kakashi interrupted before he finished speaking, saying: "Yes, it's him, and I want you to teach the teacher his teacher's Muji Ninjutsu. I can't teach him, not even He can't compare to the boy next to me, but his technique and training system are not suitable for Naruto. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to you. I happened to meet you today, so"
"So you have such an excuse to be lazy, right?" Jiraiya rolled his eyes at him.
Then he glanced at Wu Liang and said with approval: "Oh, this kid stands like a sharp sword. Whose child are you from? The Yueguang family's swordsmanship is quite good."
Kakashi glanced at Wu Liang, and then said: "Jiraiya-sama, I advise you not to underestimate him. His name is Senju Liang, he is Tsunade-sama's descendant, and he is not weaker than me now."
"what"
When Jiraiya, who was quite lazy at first, heard Wu Liang's last name, he immediately said seriously: "You didn't lie to me. I remember that Tsunade's master didn't even become a ninja anymore. What happened to him?"
Kakashi looked at Wu Liang and said to Jiraiya: "He was an accident. If her mother hadn't taken the initiative to ask the Third Generation to take care of him, he would not have been exposed. His father's name is Senju Senga. He was a member of a direct lineage who was dismissed during the second generation. His father was an ordinary person in the Land of Fire, but by chance he returned to Konoha and became a Jonin under the pseudonym Wu Ya died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion, and his mother died in the subsequent spy war."
Then Kakashi returned to his dead fish eyes, looked at Jiraiya and said: "Of course, this is what the Third Hokage told me. As for the authenticity, I cannot verify it because the information has been encrypted or destroyed."
Jiraiya nodded after listening and said: "It should be true. His small body exudes a strong breath of vitality. This is unique to the immortal body of the Senju clan, and the chakra at such a young age is... The quantity is so huge that it can’t be mistaken.”
Then Jiraiya looked at Uchiha Sasuke behind him again and said: "Then this kid has a dark aura full of chakra. This aura is very familiar, but I can't remember where I felt it."
Kakashi looked at Sasuke and said to Jiraiya: "He is the only surviving orphan of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Sasuke."
After hearing this, Jiraiya suddenly said: "Oh, I mean, it turns out he is a brat from the Uchiha clan, no wonder."
