Chapter 56: Ino's Request
As in the original, Morino Ibiki introduced the "challenge and give up" multiple-choice question before the tenth one was revealed.
If you challenge the tenth question, no matter whether the first nine questions were right or wrong, if you give an incorrect answer to the tenth question, you'll be erased immediately, and you won't be able to participate in the Chunin Exam any longer.
If you give up, you will be eliminated as well, but you can participate in the next Chunin Exam.
Hearing this regulation, examinees who had at least filled out the test papers by cheating couldn't help it.
But, under the atmosphere of Morino Ibiki, they cooled down immediately and began struggling.
"I give up!"
Immediately, some examinees closed their eyes, gritted their teeth and raised their hands.
"I also give up, I'll just come back next time."
"I don't want to risk my future!"
"...".
One person started the trend, and then one by one, examinees stood up, and excused themselves.
If one person gives up, the whole team gives up.
Whenever there is an examinee who gives up, three members will leave.
The examination room which was already crowded with chairs lost another third soon.
With one hand on his face and the other hand pinching Hinata's little hand under the table, Izayoi was very curious about the look on Naruto Uzumaki's face right now, and had no idea what that guy was thinking at this moment.
When Izayoi turned his head, or used Tenseigan, he would find Naruto Uzumaki tightly pinning his arms with a loose and confident look.
If you look carefully, you will notice that his test paper is full of answers.
While the empty test paper in the original work, Naruto having become a classmate with Sasuke Uchiha, didn't have to do anything at all, just had to keep a pen in hand, the rest was taken care of by Sasuke Uchiha.
With the ability of Uchiha clan's Manipulating Shuriken Technique, Sasuke Uchiha employed steel wire immediately to become a puppeteer, operating Naruto Uzumaki in answering questions.
Naruto Uzumaki would not panic by nature.
In the absence of encouragement from Naruto Uzumaki, more naturally than in the original, candidates appeared more than originally existed and were eliminated during the first exam.
That is all.
The majority of foreign examinees have found loopholes.
Not taking the Chunin Exam doesn't signify that they're unable to be Chunin.
After all, they aren't Konoha ninjas. Assuming that they are good enough, the high-ranking officials in the village would surely promote them especially.
Although choosing to leave now will allow them to go to the big ninja village to take the Chunin Exam the next time, it would be disappointing the high-ranking individuals in the village.
Therefore, many examinees suffered Morino Ibiki's barrage of mental pressure.
Seeing that the time was running out, and seeing that no one chose to quit, Morino Ibiki, who had been pushing his face together, smiled suddenly and shouted, "Congratulations, you all passed the first exam."
"Eh?!"
Surprised and surprised voices resounded.
Examinees waiting to answer the tenth question were all puzzled.
Then a great number of unacceptable examinees asked questions: "What. what do you mean?"
For this purpose, Morino Ibiki began to outline the first test test.
It so occurs that the first nine questions are purely for testing the ninja's knowledge and the ability of information gathering. The tenth question is to test the cohesion of the whole team.
However, the majority of the examinees remained dazed for a while.
Bang!
Before they could recover, the sound of kunai shattering through the window attracted their attention.
I observed Mitarashi Anko, in a manner that made Naruto Uzumaki very familiar, as if he were looking into a mirror, make a sparkling appearance.
A number of examinees saw this scene, and their faces were covered with black lines.
But Mitarashi Anko's conversation with Morino Ibiki changed the faces of all the examinees a bit.
"Ibiki, why are you? Why are so many people left?"
"The Chunin in this class are good."
"Tch... it is not important anyway, in the next exam I will cut at least half."
When the speech ended, Mitarashi Anko scanned the audience like a hunting animal.
Different from the beautiful look, the evil Orochimaru-like grin, and the exclusive Jonin air, the majority of examinees were shocked and dared not underestimate this lady.
Like Morino Ibiki, those who have the ability to work as chief examiners are actually not common people.
"Everyone, assemble at Konoha's 44th training field punctually before three tomorrow afternoon. The latecomers will be considered as abstaining."
Having given such a sentence, Mitarashi Anko left the examination room, declaring the first exam to be finished.
"Yo, long time no see."
Team 8 and Team 7 still left the examination room in tandem.
But before entering the corridor, Izayoi and others heard the sound that they were familiar with in the corridor.
Turning his head, he could see Shikamaru Nara holding the back of his head with both hands, leading Choji Akimichi and Ino Yamanaka in.
"Sasuke, it's been a while!"
Ino Yamanaka was eager for the chance with open arms to attack Sasuke Uchiha, but he dodged to the side.
"Ino-pig, what are you going to do to Sasuke?" Sakura Haruno snapped angrily.
"Forehead, it doesn't concern you. Do you want to fight?" Ino Yamanaka replied hesitantly.
Then the ex-girlfriends, like the last time Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki saw each other, literally bumped heads and were ready to fight with each other at any second.
"Long time no see, Shikamaru, Choji."
Izayoi and others ignored the two girls and greeted Shikamaru Nara and Choji Akimichi.
Izayoi teased, "I thought a troublesome guy like you wouldn't join the Chunin Exam."
"I don't want to join in, but Asuma-sensei and my father pushed me to join." Shikamaru Nara flung out his hands and cried out, "And Ino also wants to join the Chunin Exam. You must have noticed something strange from the application form."
"Yes."
Izayoi nodded, and the revised version of the nine rookies walked out of the teaching building together.
Ino Yamanaka, while having finished bickering with Sakura Haruno, didn't notice when she had shifted over to Hinata's side, looked at Hinata's white kimono and complimented, smiling, "Hinata, your new outfit is extremely lovely, extremely appropriate for your disposition."
"Thanks." Hinata smiled mildly.
"That."
Ino Yamanaka pulled on Hinata's cuff rather bashfully, glanced at the boys' pile over there, and then leaned her head against Hinata's ear and whispered softly, "Hinata, how did you do it?"
Sakura Haruno's ears trembled slightly and leaned closer to the two girls without a hint.
"What?" Hinata was confused.
"It's this, how did you do it?"
Ino Yamanaka first looked at Hinata's incredible body, which could not be concealed by the loose kimono, and then looked at her own capital, which could not be referred to as an airport, but could not be described as有料, and asked again, "Hinata, what's your usual food?"
Hinata blushed in the blink of an eye. She didn't even know what she was thinking herself. She laid her head on the table very slowly and softly said, "I... I don't know. I just eat more than others."
"Eating a lot is enough?"
Ino Yamanaka did take it seriously, but when she glanced at Choji Akimichi, who was snacking on potato chips not too far away and chatting with Shikamaru Nara and Izayoi in as quiet a voice as Shino Aburame, she felt completely depressed and said, "It seems that this method is useless to me."
Although the Yamanaka clan is the pig of Ino-Shika-Cho, Ino Yamanaka does not want to be a pig.
Not only that, but she also hates people calling her Ino-pig.
