"What? I lost?"

Obito looked displeased at the mask in front of him. The blonde hair and the voice made him realize immediately... it was Teacher Minato.

But.

"How did I lose?"

Let me tell you!

Even if you're Teacher Minato, you can't just say things!

With this barrage of explosive tags and kunai, I could blow up the Nine-Tails for you to see!

I don't believe some mere girl could withstand it!

Uchiha Obito proudly lifted his head, "Teacher Minato, I can win!"

"..."

Is this about whether you can win?

Explosive tags and kunai, and she's still a girl... Obito, what will the other girls think of you?

Didn't you see Rin's face turn pale below?

Minato chuckled, about to say something when...

"Pah! Shameless bastard! You say you won, so you won!" Yugito Nii, who seemed to have understood something, also had a pale face. She took a deep breath, patted her youthful, bulging chest, and glared at Obito through gritted teeth, "You bastard! You actually did that to me, to me... to my place... Bastard! Konoha shinobi are lewd and shameless!"

"..."

The three Jonin who came up to support them chuckled awkwardly.

Little girl, why are you making baseless regional accusations?

The pineapple-haired guy chewing on a toothpick said helplessly, "Little girl, don't talk nonsense. You have to remember, if we hadn't come up..."

He paused there, not continuing, and changed the subject.

"Besides, there's nothing wrong with a shinobi using any advantageous element to win."

It's just that the Forest of Death... it was a bit much, and this is the third stage of the Chunin Exams. To do this to a girl in front of everyone.

If it were other despicable and shameless things, like throwing feces or spitting, it would be fine, but explosive tags and kunai... this Uchiha brat is too ruthless!

"I..." Yugito Nii was stunned, her face instantly flushed red. She glared at the smug guy, "Shameless! Despicable! Lewd! Bastard! Pervert!"

"Hey, hey! If you have the guts, let's continue!"

"Pervert! Bastard! Lewd! Despicable! Shameless!"

"Is that all you can say..."

"I..." Yugito Nii angrily bit her tongue, "Bastard! I don't need you to go easy on me! Lewd!" She angrily threw down her hand, "I forfeit!" Then, she glared at Obito again and jumped down, "Next time! I will definitely kill you, you lewd guy! Uchiha pervert!"

"Who are you calling a pervert!"

"I'm calling you! Lewd!"

With their bickering, the battle ended. Minato and the other two exchanged wry smiles and shook their heads helplessly, but in their hearts, they felt a sense of relief.

At least... they managed to control the situation in time.

And at this moment.

The confused audience on the spectator stands still looked at the scene in bewilderment.

They only remembered.

The Uchiha genius made hand seals and circled behind the Cloud shinobi. Before the Cloud shinobi could react, he was holding a kunai in his hand and was about to do something, but before he could, the three Konoha Jonin stepped in to stop him.

Then.

The Konoha shinobi announced the Cloud shinobi as the winner. The Uchiha genius and the Cloud shinobi started arguing, and in the end, it seemed like the Uchiha genius won?

What's going on?

Are they throwing the match?

And why was the girl who voluntarily surrendered so angry?

Why did the shinobi from the Hidden Cloud and Hidden Mist, who were watching the match from the side, look so furious, as if they wanted to devour the young man?

It was truly incomprehensible!

They looked at the Uchiha genius who had already left the stage. As expected... geniuses are proud. His arrogant expression, with his head held high, looked a bit punchable. He walked like an idiot.

Although the Uchiha genius looked very happy, his companions didn't seem very happy.

Their gazes towards him were very complicated.

Was he being ostracized?

Is the cradle of genius beginning to reject genius?

Could it be true, as they heard from other ninja villages... that Konoha was starting to decline!

The subsequent matches were not as intense or exciting as the one between Obito and the Cloud shinobi girl. They were rather bland. After several rounds of matches, this Chunin Exams officially concluded.

"Welcome to the Chunin Exams, brought to you by the leading brand Fuyou Milk Tea! Drink milk tea, watch the matches! Cheer for our shinobi!!"

"This year's Chunin Exams have successfully concluded. Let's give our shinobi a round of applause!"

"Fuyou Milk Tea! Add some taro balls for extra deliciousness~"

As the announcer declared the end of the shinobi's matches, the audience began to disperse. Especially at the end, there was another wave of advertisements. For the past few days, the names Fuyou Milk Tea and Fuyou Grill had been everywhere. Many people were curious and planned to try them out before they left.

As for Minato... he was truly relieved!

The final match had gone unexpectedly smoothly, with no irreversible incidents occurring. Therefore, he happily invited everyone for some barbecue.

On the way.

Obito walked with his chest puffed out, swinging his arms exaggeratedly, in an extremely irritating manner. After walking for a short while, he saw Rin behind him and ran back happily, "Rin, I..."

Before he could finish.

"I'm sorry." Rin bowed and apologized, then retreated behind Kakashi, looking at Obito with complicated eyes. "Please let me calm down."

Right now... I don't know how to look at you anymore.

She hid her head back again.

Instantly.

Obito stood frozen on the spot, looking at Rin as he extended his hand. He felt his eye... hurt again!

At the same time.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, the current Hokage of Konoha, wearing his ceremonial robes, cheerfully addressed the leaders of the various ninja villages. "Thank you to all the villages for participating in this Chunin League! Konoha is truly full of talent! It's full of hope!"

However.

This kindly demeanor did not earn smiles from the Cloud and Mist shinobi leaders. The leaders of the two villages snorted, "Konoha! Disrespects ninja ethics! What a disgrace!"

After mocking him, they flicked their sleeves and left with their shinobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback. He narrowed his eyes, a glint seeming to flash within them. He took another puff of his pipe and sighed leisurely, Is it already unavoidable?

"Hokage-sama, there's no need to be angry," said the leader of the Stone shinobi, a fat man, cheerfully. "It's understandable that the Cloud and Mist villages suffered such heavy losses this time."

"Old man knows, alas, old man didn't expect that brat to learn such ninjutsu. Actually, that child used to be quite kind," Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded with emotion, seeming a bit self-reproachful. "He's a good kid!"

"..."

I don't believe you!

If I, the Hidden Stone Village, hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known that explosive tags and kunai could be used like that!

Using that thing on a girl at such a young age, does he look like a good kid?

Despite his inner thoughts, the Stone shinobi leader maintained a smiling facade. "He is indeed an excellent child. By the way, I wanted to ask Hokage-sama something."

"Oh? What do you need to ask?"

"Why don't we see Lord Danzo this time?"

"Oh, Danzo~" Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, took another puff of his pipe, and pondered for a moment. "He has other matters to attend to and is quite busy, so he couldn't come this time! What do you need him for?"

"Nothing, it's just... I've heard a lot about Lord Danzo's reputation." The Stone shinobi leader scratched his head cheerfully. "This time, I came wanting to pay my respects to the 'Shadow of the Shinobi,' but it seems I won't be able to." With a sigh of disappointment, his chubby face broke into a smile again. "Well then... thank you for Konoha's hospitality this time. We'll be taking our leave."

"Travel safely on your journey," Hiruzen Sarutobi waved kindly. After they had gone far, his expression turned serious again. He frowned and muttered, "Pay respects? He's trying to fool me with that?"

He sighed with emotion and shook his head.

Doesn't he know that Danzo is my... sworn brother?

He dares to covet my sworn brother?

Bah!

Disgusting!
