Chapter 137: The Strongest Chunin Entry
Chapter 137: The Strongest Chunin Entry (First Update)
"Are we in the Chunin Exams?"
After a moment of silence, the devastated Sarutobi Asuma asked quietly.
"should be."
Shizune said uncertainly.
"Won!"
Yuhi Kurenai jumped up excitedly, as if it was her, not Hanekawa, who won.
"The two seniors are simply monsters!"
Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but exclaimed.
He couldn't help but wonder what would happen if he were to fight against Might Guy who had opened five gates?
Genjutsu is useless, and physical and ninjutsu cannot block it, so there is a high probability of a miserable defeat.
His only chance of victory was to control Might Guy with illusion before he could use the Eight Gates.
But what if he were to deal with Hanekawa?
Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but shook his head.
Now he has no solution at all.
His only strong point is illusion, and Hanekawa is also extremely good at it.
A subtle feeling arose in Kakashi Hatake's heart.
He was wondering whether he should thank Might Guy for not killing him.
Fortunately, he doesn't use the Eight Gates when sparring.
But it is really incredible that Hanekawa can defeat Might Guy in physical skills.
Hatake Kakashi watched the whole thing.
Hanekawa used only physical skills in the battle.
Even the Chidori Style is used as a physical technique, mainly to increase defense.
“Really… amazing…”
Nohara Lin muttered to herself, and was absent-minded for a while.
Today's battle shocked her greatly.
Although they are both Genin, Hanekawa and Might Guy are already so strong that she can't understand them.
"hateful!"
Uchiha Obito's expression was extremely ugly.
On the one hand, Nohara Rin's attitude changed.
On the other hand, he found that Hanekawa had left him far behind.
With such powerful strength, can the Three-Magome Sharingan defeat it?
No matter how powerful the Three-magatama Sharingan is, it is only an elite jonin and has its limits.
Ahhhhh!
Uchiha Obito fell into despair, and his aura kept shaking.
"Obito?"
Nohara Lin noticed his abnormality and asked, "What's wrong with you? Is your previous injury not healed yet?"
"I...I'm fine."
Uchiha Obito looked at her concern and immediately shook his head, his breath returning to normal.
After a moment's silence, there were exclamations from the audience.
Both the ninjas and the villagers felt that the trip was not in vain.
Because they witnessed the birth of a younger generation of geniuses.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will have a long-term impact on Konoha Village in the next ten, twenty years, or even longer.
“Young people today are really scary.”
Namikaze Minato said with a smile on his face.
"Indeed."
Hatake Sakumo nodded in agreement, "I feel like in a few years, the world will be dominated by young people."
"You're not old, why do you sound like you're going to retire soon?"
Uzumaki Kushina asked with a smile.
"no way."
Namikaze Minato shook his head and said, "They performed so well that I can't find any fault with them."
"They're still a long way off."
Tsunade said with a light cough.
"Lady Tsunade, you can laugh if you want."
Uzumaki Kushina noticed the raised corner of her mouth and said.
"So-so."
Tsunade waved her hands and said as if she didn't care, "The last strange power is half my level."
At this time, have you become more humble?
Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato looked at each other and both laughed.
Tsunade raised her eyes and looked at Hanekawa who was in the center of the venue.
Although he had not used the ninjutsu she taught him before, the winning punch was enough.
After all, super strength is one of her signature ninjutsu.
But Tsunade was a little confused.
When did his supernatural power become so powerful?
But when she thought about it, she didn't know much about Hanekawa.
In this Chunin Exam, he showed all kinds of great skills, which really surprised her.
"There are still many things worth exploring about this kid."
Tsunade thought to herself.
A high platform not far away.
"Is this still a Genin?"
Jiraiya couldn't help but complain.
When he graduated, it wasn't so outrageous.
To be more precise, he was able to become a jonin among jonin because he accidentally entered Myoboku Mountain.
“It’s really going from strength to strength!”
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile on his face.
He thought of his teacher, Tobirama Senju.
When he was Hokage, there were many geniuses, and finally a second-generation Hokage guard team was formed.
Among them was him.
This year's class of Hanekawa has a lot of the flavor of their class.
Sarutobi Hiruzen is now feeling ambitious, and he will definitely be able to bring Konoha to a new height!
"Hokage-sama."
Yamanaka Inoichi walked up to him, handed him a scroll, and said, "This is the ranking for this Chunin Exam."
"Take the top fifteen."
Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at the scroll and said.
"Yes."
Yamanaka Inoichi immediately understood what he meant.
The top fifteen advance, while the rest of the Genin fail and have to fight again next time.
"Go ask Kai about his situation."
Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed that Hanekawa was still recovering, so he said, "Announce the new chunin list after you make sure he's alright."
He is now very concerned about Might Guy.
After all, everyone can see that he has great potential.
As long as one successfully practices the Eight Gates, he will definitely become an elite among the jonin.
The only trouble is his character.
Generally speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen likes to train geniuses in the Anbu.
But Might Guy...it's better not to harm the Anbu.
"Yes." Yamanaka Inoichi took the scroll and returned to the center of the venue.
Hanekawa squatted in front of Might Guy and used the Palm Magic Technique.
The side effects of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu are indeed very strong, and his body has suffered considerable damage, but it is still within an acceptable range.
From this point of view, Might Guy is stronger than Rock Lee.
[The effect of the D-level talent entry 'No Regrets in Youth' has been upgraded. ]
[Physical skills talent is increased by 100% on the original basis. 】
At this moment, the entry system prompt appeared.
It was expected, and Hanekawa was not surprised at all.
He was more looking forward to the effect of the B-rank entry 'Strongest Chunin'.
"Hanekawa, how's Kai?"
Yamanaka Haiyi walked up to him and asked.
"It's nothing serious."
Hanekawa put his hands away and said, "Just take care of yourself for a while."
"That's fine."
Yamanaka Hai nodded and shouted, "I now declare the ninja who has passed this Chunin Exam!"
Asuma Sarutobi, Rin Nohara and others hurried forward.
"First place, Hanekawa!"
After Yamanaka Inichi finished speaking, he was interrupted by the audience's huge cheers.
The strong and the talented will always be sought after.
"Hanekawa, now you are a celebrity in Konoha!"
Asuma Sarutobi said with envy.
The current Hanekawa is exactly the person he was in his fantasy.
Since he was a child, he has always wanted to get rid of the influence of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
If he could amaze everyone like Hanekawa did and take first place, he would probably be able to successfully escape.
But... he is not after all.
"Hekawa has been famous for a long time!"
Yuhi Kurenai said with a proud look on her face.
Nohara Lin raised her eyes and looked at Hanekawa in a daze.
Not only is he powerful, he's also handsome.
"Second place, Matt Guy!"
Yamanaka Inoichi waited for more than ten seconds before continuing.
"It's a pity that Kai is unconscious..."
Before Asuma Sarutobi could finish his words, he saw Might Dai crying bitterly.
He opened his mouth and took back the second half of the sentence.
It’s better to be unconscious to avoid seeing strange scenes.
The names came one after another until the fifteenth one.
"...The above fifteen Genin officially become Chunin from today!"
Yamanaka Hiro paused and said, "Now, please let the Hokage speak!"
Come again?
Hanekawa couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"Why is he so talkative?"
Asuma Sarutobi asked, a little annoyed.
Hatake Kakashi nodded subconsciously, but soon realized that something was wrong, so he stood there expressionlessly.
Shizune, Nohara Rin and the others naturally didn't dare to complain.
Hanekawa glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen on the podium and opened the entry system.
With Yamanaka Inoichi's announcement, he gained a new entry.
[C-level talent entry: First place in the Chunin Exam.]
[Trigger condition: Get first place in the Chunin Exam. ]
【Effect: Comprehension is increased by 100% from the original level.】
Comprehension?
Hanekawa was thoughtful.
Insight refers to the ability to understand things.
Ninjutsu is naturally included in it.
With the improvement of understanding, the most obvious effect is that the time of learning ninjutsu is reduced.
All in all, it’s a good entry.
Of course, the focus is still on the B-rank entry 'Strongest Chunin'.
Hanekawa had a sudden thought and chose synthesis.
[B-level talent entry: The strongest Chunin. ]
[Triggering conditions: Combined with C-level entry Chunin Exam First Place, C-level Perception Chunin, and C-level entry Five Escapes Chunin. ]
[Effect: The speed of refining chakra increases by 150%, and the upper limit of chakra increases by 100% on the original basis. ]
[Note: Adding the B-level item Seven Attributes Special Jonin and the B-level item Perception Special Jonin can be combined into the A-level item Almighty Jonin. ]
The effect is an upgrade of the previous C-level talent 'Genius Genin'.
Simple and crude, very useful.
Especially the chakra upper limit, those who understand will understand.
It's just that this path to promotion is a bit outrageous.
The B-rank entry 'Special Perception Jounin' is okay.
When Nohara Rin was attacked before, Hanekawa had already planned to learn more about perception ninjutsu.
But this B-level entry 'Seven Attributes Special Jonin' is too time-consuming.
The so-called seven attributes are thunder, fire, water, earth, wind, yin and yang.
He now only has the Lightning Release Special Jounin, the Genjutsu Special Jounin, and the Medical Special Jounin, which means he is missing four more.
Hanekawa also has to thank the entry system for having lax standards for recognition.
It mistook the illusion special jonin for Yin escape special jonin and the medical special jonin for Yang escape special jonin.
There is no doubt that there is still a long way to go.
But he is young and can brush slowly.
"…The Chunin Exam has come to a successful conclusion!"
After talking on and on for an hour, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally finished his speech.
"Hekawa won first place, he deserves to treat us!"
Asuma Sarutobi said immediately.
"no problem."
Hanekawa came back to his senses and asked with a smile, "What do you want to eat?"
"Barbecue of course!"
Asuma Sarutobi said bluntly, "Even though I can't beat you, can't I still beat you up?"
"Row."
Hanekawa paused and said, "But we have to wait until Kai wakes up before eating. As for today, everyone is tired, so go back and rest."
After everyone left, Uchiha Obito walked on the street in a daze.
Just then, a familiar voice came.
"Obito, is there something bothering you? You can talk to grandma about it."
