In Naruto: Getting Stronger by Drinking, Chapter 47

Just then, an angry roar came from the Crystal Ball.

The examination hall filled with smoke as Konoha's team of proctors made their entrance.

"I am Konoha Village's jonin, Kurenai Yuhi. I will be the chief proctor for the first exam!

Now, everyone, return to your seats!"

A middle-aged man shouted, his overwhelming presence blanketing everyone in the room.

"So this is Konoha's jonin?"

"He's strong. He feels even stronger than Teacher!"

After the proctors appeared, the hall quickly fell silent.

Everyone found their seats and sat down quietly.

As for Yuu, a proctor helped him back to his seat.

"So he's Yuu? The guy Kurenai's been obsessed with?"

Kurenai Yuhi looked at Yuu with an unfriendly expression.

Kurenai Yuhi was Kurenai's father.

The moment he saw Yuu, Kurenai Yuhi understood.

Why the alcohol in his house had been mysteriously disappearing.

So his daughter had been stealing it and giving it to this brat to drink?!

Kurenai Yuhi scrutinized Yuu for a moment.

But he quickly returned to his proper duties.

As a Konoha jonin, his responsibility at the moment was to proctor the first exam.

"Now, I will announce the examination rules..."

Just like in the original story, the first exam tested one's ability to gather intelligence.

Even if they were caught cheating, they had four chances.

The smart ones in the examination hall quickly understood this.

Before long, people from every ninja village began looking for targets and cheating.

Hokage's Office.

"The Hyuga Clan's Byakugan, the Inuzuka Clan's ninja hounds, the Yamanaka Clan's secret techniques, the Aburame Clan's insects... This exam poses no difficulty whatsoever for Konoha's examinees."

A jonin watched the scene in the Crystal Ball with a proud expression.

"But Old man, why didn't you send anyone from the Uchiha Clan?"

Jiraiya asked in confusion.

Although Jiraiya did not particularly care for that clan, the Uchiha Clan's strength was undeniably formidable.

What Jiraiya had not expected was this.

Hearing those words, Hiruzen Sarutobi seemed to have been struck where it hurt. His eye twitched sharply as he glared at Jiraiya with killing intent.

"Uh..."

Jiraiya's expression stiffened. Though he did not know what he had said wrong, he obediently shut his mouth.

For some reason, the Old man had been especially displeased with him lately. To avoid getting beaten up, he should behave himself.

Did I not know that sending members of the Uchiha Clan would give us a better chance?

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt helpless inside.

The Uchiha Clan was far too proud.

During the second exam, to prevent Yuu from treating people from his own village as enemies and cutting them down, everyone had to wear a special item.

Just thinking of that item made Hiruzen Sarutobi feel awful.

With the Uchiha Clan's pride, they would never accept such an order.
