82 I give up

All the candidates in the main tower started relaxing while waiting for the end of this examination, as the end drew closer, fewer and fewer participants arrived.

Finally, only a few hours before the end of the exam, team seven with Kabuto finally arrived, Kayle waved at them welcoming them, Naruto seemed to be back to his energetic self, he has long since recuperated from his fight with Orochimaru.

Kayle finally separated from his acquaintance and rejoined his team.

Kayle: "Hey Kabuto! I'm happy to see you! thanks for carrying me through this one, I met with our last teammate and he said that you gave him the two scrolls we needed to qualify before leaving him"

Kabuto: "You reached this spot on your own? that's quite a good performance already, and there i no need to thank me, I just did what I to"

After a short discussion, the reunited team followed the instructions given to them and left the main hall to one of the empty rooms, once there, they opened the two scrolls simultaneously while throwing them on the floor as a big cloud of white smoke appeared.

A shadow appeared from the middle of the smoke, Kayle recognized this Jonin immediately as he saluted him.

Kayle: "Long time no see Asuma-sensei!"

Asuma looked a little surprised at first, but he quickly remembered kayle as he saw him quite a few times with Gaï or Kakahi.

Asuma: "Oh it's you, Kayle! that's true you are the same age as my students, they often talked about you and praised your cooking!"

Kayle: "Haha! yes I saw them earlier, they seem to have succeeded in this exam too and I invited them to dinner, I'm planning to cook for them you are welcome to join us if you want"

Asuma: "Yes I was in charge of talking to them once they arrived, they did really well!"

After that Asuma explained how Kayle's team wad qualified herself too, he explained that to qualify they needed the two different scrolls, but there was also a hidden requirement witch was the team had to not lose any member to qualify.

Asuma: "To pass this exam you guys had to demonstrate survivability, teamwork, and strategy. This exam is very close to the missions you will do as a chunin in the future, where we are in an unknown environment and you have to fight other ninjas, so good job completing it"

After successfully delivering the message Kabuto's team went once more to the main hall waiting for the end of the exam, it took around one more hour before the time was up and the doors closed.

The Hokage that had been present all this time on the top floor finally showed himself with all the different teachers. He slowly walked to the main stage as everyone could feel the aura of a leader leaking from him.

Sarutobi: "Hello everyone, It's a pleasure to meet you all and I congratulate all of you on arriving at this point, but it seems this year's batch of ninja is full of talent and you are a lot more than usual. That's why we will add last-minute evaluation, You each will have to face one random opponent, win and you qualify, lose and you will have to try the chunin examination in six months"

Hearing this, almost everyone in the room felt their heart drop, they face so much hardship and they still had to prove themselves? a few of them were exhausted from the three days spent in the forest but it seemed like they couldn't relax yet.

Within the confusion of the participants, a hand slowly rose to the sky.

Kabuto: "I give up!"
