Chapter 87: As Expected, My Nerves Are Still a Little Stronger Than Yours.
He almost sprained his ankle.
Lin Ke kept a straight face. Who would actually like a brand new pair of nunchucks!
This hobby is too niche, as out of place as Uzumaki Naruto writing about limited-edition instant noodles in his letter to Santa Claus.
However, now that I think about it, it seems like all the ninja squads have returned to the village recently. Yesterday, Shikamaru and the others also…
He tried hard to recall the time and realized it was already mid-June, and the Chunin Exams were just around the corner.
Sigh, ever since I started working, my focus has been on Monday to Friday. I have no concept of what day of the month it is.
The approach of the Chunin Exams also meant that the Konoha Crush Plan was about to begin.
Lin Ke's expression turned slightly serious. The time he had to develop was indeed running out. If the Konoha Crush Plan still had the same outcome as in the manga, Konoha Village would lose more than half of its fighting power due to the invasion, the Third Hokage would sacrifice himself, and the scapegoat Danzo would come out of the shadows…
The only good news was that Tsunade would return, and everything else was bad.
He seemed to be the only variable in Konoha Village.
Could he change the fate of Konoha Village? Was he willing to change everything?
Is that even a question?
Lin Ke exerted force in his legs, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face. Speaking of which, even if he hated bonds and such, he had still left behind some things he cared about in Konoha.
And Orochimaru… was also his target.
When we face each other again, I definitely won't be as embarrassed as before. Strength, speed, reaction, Chakra control…
Even if you can break free from my Five Elements Sealing, this time, I will try to take your life.
Lin Ke ran vigorously. He really couldn't be too lax. Starting today, he would double all his training, compress his sleep time appropriately, and master the Mystical Palm Technique as much as possible before the Chunin Exams arrived, and then…
Unfortunately, his application for an A-Rank Ninjutsu was rejected by the two advisors. The reason was that they had approved so many Ninjutsu for him before, and now he had no merit and had even failed an A-Rank Mission. Basically, he was informed of the rejection the day after submitting the application.
Otherwise, he could have tried to see what the A-Rank Earth Release Ninjutsu Underworld Swamp of Konoha Village was like.
He maintained a steady breath and finished two laps, ignoring Rock Lee, who was holding the nunchucks and crying with emotion, and Guy Teacher, who was hugging him and crying about youth and passion. He went home, changed into his Medical Ninja uniform, and went to work.
Although he was learning Taijutsu, it didn't mean he had to join in on the awkwardness, right?
He originally thought it would be another day of slacking off and reading books, but as soon as he arrived at the office, he was notified of a meeting before he could even sit down.
Fortunately, the Medical Ninjas were all busy, especially the Jonin, who were basically in a state of researching various Medical Ninjutsu and medicines. They didn't have much time to waste, and they briefly explained the content of the meeting.
It was that with the Chunin Exams approaching, a Medical Team squad had to be sent out as usual to provide appropriate medical assistance during the competition.
The First Medical Team had won the lottery.
From the first day of the Chunin Exams, July 1st, they had to stay in the examination hall on standby, waiting to treat the examinees.
Team leader Han Fang quickly left after speaking, with absolutely no intention of wasting words. The other Jonin among the Medical Ninjas also left, and the meeting ended in less than ten minutes.
The sudden mission did not affect Lin Ke's mood. After learning medical knowledge in the Medical Team building for a morning, he did not go to the hospital. For the next ten days, he would do his best to prepare for the battle and had no time to busy himself with other things.
When he was eating lunch, Yuan Wei and Xia came to see him and told him that the new squads they were in were also preparing to sign up for this year's Chunin Exams.
After lunch, the three of them went to the Seventh Training Ground to train. At around 2:00 PM, Team 7 arrived.
"Hoo~" Lin Ke wiped the sweat from his body and put on his clothes.
He didn't expect all three members of Team 7 to come. He just didn't know if Kakashi was lurking somewhere.
"Hmph~" Uzumaki Naruto clenched his fist in a showy manner, his expression very smug. "I'm here!"
This guy… what a strong body.
Uchiha Sasuke kept a cold face, but he was a little surprised. From the way he had been training with the other two guys just now, he was definitely not a pushover.
Wow, those muscles… If Sasuke-kun took off his clothes, would he look like that too? Ehehe. Haruno Sakura's expression was calm, but the thoughts in her head had already flown away.
"Sakura and… that guy came because they heard we were going to compete." Uzumaki Naruto deliberately didn't look at Uchiha Sasuke's face, giving people a very strange feeling…
It was as if he was being a tsundere.
Lin Ke was relaxed and his expression was calm. He walked to the middle of the open space and waved. "Come on, Naruto, let me see your growth."
Even if the three of Team 7 came at him together, he wouldn't feel much, unless Kakashi was added...
"I'm definitely going to surprise you, Lin Ke!" Uzumaki Naruto stretched his body and formed hand seals.
"Bang!" A dense mass of Shadow Clones surrounded the entire open space.
No matter how many times I see it, it's still an amazing amount of Chakra...
Uchiha Sasuke mused.
"This guy..." Yuan Wei's eyes widened. "Is that the Clone Jutsu?"
"Idiot, it's the Shadow Clone," Xia retorted, then said, "Even with the Clone Jutsu, that much Chakra is..."
"Alright!" The Naruto clones raised their fists and shouted, "Here we come!" As they said this, they swarmed forward.
Lin Ke cracked his knuckles and then disappeared from the spot.
"Whoosh!"
So fast! Uchiha Sasuke's expression turned serious, and two tomoe appeared in his eyes.
I can see it, but... it's too fast. My eyes can see it, but my body definitely can't keep up! He clenched his fists.
As expected of the village's most talented rookie, two years younger than him, yet actually... actually...
"Bang bang bang bang!"
The sounds of the Shadow Clones exploding blended together.
"Looks like..." The smoke from the exploding Shadow Clones quickly dissipated, and dozens of Shadow Clones had already disappeared. Lin Ke was now holding down the real Uzumaki Naruto, who was facing away from him, with one hand, and said, "As expected, I'm still a little stronger than you."
Before mastering how to use the Tailed Beast Chakra, this guy's strength is very ordinary.
His Chakra reserves are enormous, but his control is terrible. In terms of Ninjutsu, he only knows the Three Body Technique and the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique. His strength, speed, and Taijutsu are all at the level of an average Genin.
Before being caught, he was still trying to use some tricks with the Transformation Jutsu, but his hand seal speed... was too painful to watch.
Overall, he should have been a Ninjutsu-type turret, but because of years of pranks and skipping classes, his knowledge and intellect are somewhat lacking.
Lin Ke calmly finished his analysis and let go. There's nothing to be proud of. At this time, Uzumaki Naruto is just a standard hot-blooded idiot.
