Chapter 109: End of the Exam

First round

Uzumaki Naruto vs. Rock Lee

Second round

Hyuga Hinata vs. Hyuga Neji

Third round

Temari vs. Yamanaka Ino

Fourth round

Uchiha Sasuke vs. Gaara

.....

Finally, the opponents were fully announced, Naruto also guessed Konohagakure's idea, the probability is to let Naruto advance, let Sasuke and Gaara fight to the death, if Sasuke wins, Konohagakure will have face, if Sasuke loses, it can also consume Gaara's state, no matter how they fight, they won't lose.

Then, the second match is a destined duel, the third match doesn't matter who wins or loses, those higher-ups probably think that these four people can't influence the duel, they are not opponents of Naruto, Sasuke, Gaara, and Hinata, so they just randomly assigned them.

Those Konohagakure higher-ups, probably can't even dream of how fierce Hinata is when she goes all out!

In their eyes, as long as Naruto wins the championship, whether the final match is Naruto vs Gaara, or Naruto vs Sasuke, it will be very effective in enhancing Konohagakure's prestige.

It's a pity that Konohagakure's Hokage is almost gone, considering so much is really a waste.

"Although only one person can win this competition, including me, there are other people such as Daimyo and Kazekage who are watching as reviewers. As long as your performance is excellent enough, you can become Chunin even if you lose, but on the contrary, if you don't have enough strength, you can't become Chunin even if you win." Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.

Below the stage, Shikamaru sighed silently, he could probably guess these things, but it's still best to quit, not participating is the best choice.

Why?

When facing Naruto, Sasuke, Gaara, Hinata, these four people, he would be directly blown up, and it would be a public execution. If it's Naruto or Hinata, it's okay, they can at least save him some face, but Sasuke and Gaara, he really can't figure them out.

Don't expect to perform well, it's bound to explode!

Facing Neji, Lee, Ino, Temari, these four people's comprehensive strength is very strong, Ino's water elemental power combined with chakra is Senjutsu chakra, breaking Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique is extremely fast, it's a natural counter.

After Lee took off the weight, his speed was so fast that he couldn't keep up, and he would probably be killed in a second. Neji has Byakugan which is not conducive to his operation, he would probably be discovered directly if he did something.

That is to say, only Temari, Shikamaru can show off a little bit, but it's just showing off, it's impossible to win head-on, and the final result can't be determined.

Eight opponents, seven can hang him, the last one he can only show a little strategy, this kind of battle that depends on luck and life, Shikamaru really doesn't want to fight.

What if he matches those seven dads, is it appropriate for him to surrender in front of so many people? And if they fight, it's already giving him face if the opponent doesn't kill him directly.

There's no need to fight at all!

"Then, the official exam will be held in a month, dismissed!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

...

After the exam ended and was dismissed, Naruto and Gaara inadvertently looked at each other, smiled at each other, then turned their heads and stopped talking. The communication between men is very simple, without so many fancy things.

Especially with Sasuke, physical communication is high!

"Hey, Naruto, I've surrendered directly now, can you teach me that thing?" Shikamaru asked with his hands crossed behind his head.

"Um... okay."

Naruto thought for a while and agreed, and continued, "But, I hope you don't tell the principle of this cultivation method. Although you may not believe it if you say it, it's better not to say it to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"Yes, yes, I know."

Shikamaru nodded in response, if it wasn't for the inappropriate timing, he would definitely complain...

It's so troublesome!

He could probably guess Naruto's intention, and he could guess that the cultivation method must have a very high threshold, otherwise it would not have been discovered and promoted until now. Naruto was able to develop it, it must have made a breakthrough in some aspect, it might be a key-like technique.

The technique Naruto taught him is the key, but it is highly unlikely that he can directly cultivate through that technique, but through that technique to open the door to a new world, and that technique is highly unlikely to be easily spread, otherwise he might not teach so many people so easily.

Thinking three steps ahead, so troublesome.

On the other side, Neji, who had left, looked back and took a deep look at Hinata, but didn't say much. Hinata had already understood his meaning.

Sasuke laughed, looking at Hinata, looking at Neji, one who doesn't know anything and just says what he thinks, and one who is too embarrassed to explain to him, making him quite embarrassed.

It's really interesting!

I can see it, but I won't point it out. Watching them being embarrassed while is really refreshing.

"Sasuke, Sasuke, are you sure you can beat that guy with the gourd?" Karin tugged at Sasuke's clothes and asked in a slightly hurried tone.

This guy's laugh is too annoying. If Hinata sees it, there will definitely be a problem! What if they start fighting and get beaten up?

Find a topic to distract him...

"Ah, that guy?"

Sasuke came back to his senses, he didn't like the fun of his giggling laughter being interrupted by others, but if it was Karin, it didn't matter, she's one of us.

He thought for a moment and said proudly, "Are you doubting my strength ?"

"Ah, so powerful!" Karin flattered.

"Hehe, Gaara is a Jinchuriki, I admit his strength is very strong, but in front of my Mangekyou Sharingan, no matter what opponent, they have to... (glances at Naruto)... be on guard." Sasuke said.

After saying that, Sasuke's mood gradually became heavier. Naruto is a Jinchuriki, Gaara is also a Jinchuriki, although Gaara may not be as good as Naruto, but as a Jinchuriki, their strength should not be too different, after all, they are all people who are called monsters.

I must become stronger! Keep getting stronger!

Now I can only condense a Susanoo with muscles at most, I can't use a stronger armor form at all, the height is only about ten meters, there is still a long way to go to be able to rival a Tailed Beast.

Moreover, because Gaara always covers himself with a layer of sand armor for isolation, and he himself is not weak, the ability to manipulate bioelectricity may not work on him.

It's really hard!

The strength of Susanoo comes from my foundation, my chakra volume and elemental power, and the control of the lightning element. This kind of thing is hard to make rapid progress in a short time, and it has to be improved bit by bit through accumulation.

So...

The direction I should improve should be to create a force field with the lightning element, right? As long as I can explore how to control the force field, and create the strongest field with the least amount of power, then I can get a huge improvement.

And in the process of development, because of the constant use of elemental power and chakra, my control of elemental power and chakra volume will also progress rapidly.

Well, I'll practice like this in the future!
