Chapter IX
After two weeks of high-intensity training, Hatake had already started to feel numb. However, his results were still remarkable. His running speed had increased by 1.3 meters, reaching 8.9 meters per second.
Tian Tian was currently practicing shooting at four targets at the same time. With the technique that Hatake had taught her, she was already able to form the Chakra string.
Little Li was much faster than Hatake, but his strength was far inferior. His control over his strength was clearly not as good as Hatake's. Little Li could only break a wooden stake with a diameter of about 20 centimeters, while Hatake could control his strength. He could break it as he wished, break it as he wished, or even break half of it.
Kai obviously had no intention of teaching Xiao Li how to control his own strength. Or rather, he did not plan to teach him for the time being. Xiao Li's direction of development was speed. Right now, the requirement for Xiao Li was to be able to gather his strength and use speed to form strength. Hatake felt that it was very similar to Kakashi's Thunder Cut. Both required high-speed movement and focused their strength on one point to attack. The only difference was that one was physical skills and the other was ninjutsu.
Although Kai wasn't very satisfied with Tian Tian's and Hatake's results, it was still passable. Hatake and Little Li were different after all. Little Li, who couldn't feel the chakra, could only use physical skills and ninja tools to attack. However, he didn't have much talent in ninja tools. He only focused on physical skills, so naturally, he needed to move at high speed.
Hatake was an all-rounder. He was good at ninjutsu, illusions, physical techniques, and ninja tools. If he encountered an enemy, he did not need to engage in close combat with the enemy. He could attack the enemy from a distance. Therefore, running speed was not very important to him. When it came to running around the tree, he was not slower than Little Li. Even if he ran, Little Li was fast in short distances, but in long distances... Hatake, who was able to maintain his speed, obviously had an advantage over Xiao Li.
And even if it was a short distance, if Hatake used his skills, he wouldn't be too slow.
"You've been cultivating recently, and it seems rather boring. Today, you'll be taking on missions to relax.”Kai's teeth began to shine.
"Roar!" Xiao Li's change was getting bigger and bigger. It was not a change in appearance, but he was getting more and more hot-blooded. He was gradually catching up to Kai.
Tian Tian didn't care about accepting missions, and the rewards for D-rank missions weren't much. When Hatake heard the word 'mission,' his eyes started to burn with anger, which shocked Kai.
How could he have known that Hatake had recently checked his little treasury and had actually saved up more than forty thousand dollars? Thinking about how he could bet another ring with fifty thousand dollars and further strengthen his strength, how could he not be angry?
The ninja on duty today happened to be Iruka. When he saw Kai bring Team 5 to receive the mission, he chatted with Hatake and the others.
Looking at the large pile of commissions, Kai scratched his head and asked,""Iruka, why are there so many D-rank missions?”
"Senior Kai, don't you know?" Iruka asked curiously.”
"What?" Kai was baffled. He thought for a moment but couldn't recall anything.
" There's less than a month left until this year's Chunin selection test," Iruka said." The other rookie groups are all cultivating, so they haven't accepted many missions. That's why they've accumulated so much."”
" Chuunin selection test?!" Kai's eyes lit up and he asked," Where will it be held this year?”
" This year, it's in the Hidden Rock Village of the Country of Earth," Iruka said." Next year, it'll be in our Woodleaf Village. Senior Kai, are you going to lead a team to participate?"”
"Do you want to participate?" Kai asked.”
"No!" Hatake was the first to reject the idea. "Although the three of us aren't inferior to the chuunin in some aspects, our overall strength is still not at the level of a chuunin. The chuunin is already a ninja at the captain level. We haven't even taken care of ourselves yet, so how can we take care of others? Let's forget about it this year. We'll train for another year and wait for next year. Isn't the selection test here? Let's participate next year."
Xiao Li agreed with what Hatake said."My good friend is right, Teacher Kai! Although I really want to become a chuunin as soon as possible, I feel that my current strength is not enough. When I reach that level, even if Teacher Kai stops me, I will definitely participate!”
Tian Tian nodded,"Yes, yes!" My good friend said that he hasn't reached the level of a chuunin, so it's even more impossible for Lee and I, who are not as strong as my good friend, to become a chuunin. It seems that Iwahide and Koba aren't on very good terms. What if we meet with an accident on the way?”
"That's right!" Xiao Li replied. I also hope that I can wait for another year. In this year, I will work hard and work harder. At the very least, I will become an opponent that my good friend will acknowledge!”
"Since you've put it this way, then we'll wait for next year's Chunin selection exam to participate."”
Iruka smiled." Actually, I'm quite confident in Hatake's strength. It's just that as a fresh graduate, he'll be at a disadvantage in terms of experience. Furthermore, he'll be selected from another country.”
He took a thick stack of commission forms and roughly looked through them. He took out a few of them as today's mission.
The first mission was to clean up the river. Originally, there were professionals in charge of cleaning up the river. Recently, that person had fallen ill and was still lying in the hospital. This was the commission order issued two days ago. It was estimated that in two to three days, there would be a lot of trash on the river.
When they arrived near the river that needed to be cleaned up, they could smell a not-so-strong stench even before they got close. The weather was indeed quite hot now. Fortunately, it was only two or three days. If no one came to clean up in a few days, the stench would probably pervade the area within a few hundred meters.
They went to the river cleaner's hut to retrieve some tools. Hatake and Tian Tian walked up to the surface of the water. Xiao Li had no choice but to take over the long fishing net while Kai pulled the garbage boat over.
Looking at the garbage on the surface of the water that was emitting a faint stench, Hatake took out a handkerchief from his ninja bag and gently covered Tian Tian's nose.
Tian Tian smiled sweetly, and Hatake's eyes turned into crescents. This caused Xiao Li to feel a huge blow, while Kai went crazy on the garbage boat."Oh! This is youth!"
After filtering out Kai's words, Hatake and Tian Tian started to use the tools in their hands to pick up the rubbish on the river and throw it onto the rubbish boat. On the shore, Xiao Li didn't show any signs of weakness. The long fishing net in his hand was flying, and a large amount of rubbish was thrown onto the rubbish boat. However, when he threw the rubbish, dirty water splashed everywhere. Kai was on the rubbish boat, and he was drenched in it.
The excited Xiao Li didn't even notice that Kai had already been killed by him. The fishing net continued to fly, and the dirty water continued to splash.
Tian Tian had a Kunai in her hand, and she used the water droplets as red hearts on the target, controlling the Kunai to stab back and forth.
The size of the water droplets was obviously not the same as the size of a red heart, so it was inevitable that they would escape. However, there was also Hatake, who was beside Tian Tian. He had one hand on the trash, and the other hand had a wooden board. He treated the water droplets that were not hit by Tian Tian as hidden weapons and used the wooden board to block them. Compared to when he was fighting with the shadow clone, it was much easier.
--------------------
In the cartoon, the Chuunin test was held twice a year. From the conversations of the few Chuunins before the Orochi attack, and Medicine Master Dou, who had taken the test six times in four years, this was confirmed.
However, I personally think that the Chunin selection test shouldn't be held twice a year like the cartoons say. So, it's changed to once a year, and the Chunin selection test will be held in the five major countries in turn. This is because the third round of the Chunin selection test has invited many famous people from all over the world to watch. If it's held twice a year, these people will just run back and forth. It's not realistic. What are the names? His name was the emperor, and he made several emperors come back and forth twice a year just to watch a half-day competition? This setting of ab seemed a little funny.
Counting the time, Sunin had arrived at Muye seven days before the start of the exam. The first round took one day, the second round plus the selection round took five days, and then he rested for a month before starting the third round. It was a total of nearly one and a half months.
Counting the number of people, there were a total of 153 people taking the exam. Excluding the 70 people from Koba Village, 83 of them were from other villages. This was just the Genin who took the exam, so there should at least be a teacher leading the team. If there were more Genin, there would be more than one teacher. There were also people like Feng Ying who came (although they were impersonated by Orochimaru). Other than a few big countries, which Ninja village in a small country would dare to let so many ninjas from other countries live in their village for a month and a half? With so many outsiders, how many people would be needed to monitor them? Later on, when Daimyo and the others came to visit, how many people would they have to arrange to guard? How much more would it cost? How many ninjas in the village would not be able to go on missions normally? Only a few Ninja Villages could afford to waste time.
Uchiha's question seemed to have been explained. The butterfly effect delayed the extermination of the clan by a few years.
The skills in Diablo seemed to have been explained. It was impossible to use the skills in Diablo World in Naruto. All skills were mutated.
