But the Third Hokage had issued a strict order.

Kurenai Yuhi gritted his teeth and pretended to cough.

But to his surprise, the brat was sleeping like the dead.

He coughed for ages, yet there was no sign of him waking up.

Kurenai Yuhi couldn't keep coughing forever, so he hardened his heart and coughed several times with all his strength.

The price was that his throat felt like it was on fire.

"What the hell did this brat drink? He's sleeping so soundly?"

Kurenai Yuhi clutched his burning throat, his cheek twitching.

Fortunately, the brat finally woke up.

"Examinees, focus on your papers! Don't look around!"

Seeing Yuu about to slump over and go back to sleep, Kurenai Yuhi immediately panicked.

If he let him fall asleep again, would his throat even survive?

He hurriedly barked out a reprimand, reminding Yuu that this was an exam! Stop fucking sleeping!

"An exam?"

Yuu blinked, looked at the test paper before him, and came back to his senses.

"That's right. Once I finish the exam, there's a whole room full of fine liquor waiting for me. I love exams!"

Remembering why he had come, Yuu hurriedly began looking over the test paper in front of him.

Then Yuu realized... he didn't know any of it!

"Phew—"

In the Hokage's Office.

Seeing Yuu finally begin answering the questions, Hiruzen Sarutobi let out a long breath.

He had already given Yuu all the answers. This should make it foolproof, right?

But as he watched, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression gradually stiffened.

That brat Yuu...

He was staring at the test paper, spacing out?!

"I-I already gave you all the answers, didn't I?"

Watching Yuu like this, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt like crying without tears.

As the Hokage, he had even leaked the questions to him in advance. How could he still not know the answers?

Could it be that this brat had drunk so much he forgot to study them?!

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi had suspected, Tanaka Shuichi had mysteriously handed Yuu a document pouch and told him that he absolutely had to read it.

But Yuu had forgotten about it in the blink of an eye. That pouch had long since been tossed who knew where.

"What do we do? That brat Yuu didn't study at all!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a headache coming on.

As Hiruzen Sarutobi racked his brains, he happened to notice the person seated in front of Yuu.

He seemed to be one of the Chunin Konoha had arranged in advance!

"This is the only way!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth.

So what if it was embarrassing? Yuu would win back their pride twofold in the later exams anyway!

In the examination room.

"Uh, I have to make sure the examinee behind me passes?"

The examinee seated in front of Yuu was named Matsushita Tomoya. His true identity was a Chunin from Konoha.

His task here was to complete the test paper so that the other examinees could use whatever means they had to copy from him.

Now, he had received a new mission: he had to ensure that the examinee behind him passed this exam, at any cost!
