The old man Sarutobi is really shameless. Kakashi became Chunin as early as six years old, and now he has become Special Jōnin. Even if Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't deliberately suppressed it, just to wait until today, it would not be surprising even if he was promoted to Jōnin immediately.
The three of Asuma have been training under Orochimaru for two and a half years now, and they have basically reached the level of Special Jōnin.
There are genuine Jōnin level experts in one team, and three of them are Special Jōnin in the other team. Against others, this is simply a dimensionality reduction blow!
Orochimaru had to observe a second of silence for their fellow candidates.
Orochimaru is teaching Yūhi Shinku and Shikun Mitarashi about Observation Haki at home.
At this time, the door opened.
Apart from the other people present, only Kakashi has the key to the house.
Of course, the most important things are not at home, but have been moved to other places. Orochimaru is not sure if someone will come in and search if he is not here, but if it is Danzo, it is definitely possible.
"Kakashi, you're back."
"Well, Adoptive Father."
Minato Squad has returned to Konohagakure, but Minato Namikaze himself has not returned. He is an indispensable and important combat force on the front line.
Shikun Mitarashi and Yūhi Shinku looked at each other and had an idea for Kakashi.
Orochimaru has no heirs, only Kakashi is an adopted son, and Kakashi's talent perfectly proves that he can take over Orochimaru's mantle.
In their opinion, Kakashi is Crown Prince of the Orochimaru faction! In the future, I will take on Orochimaru Squad!
And who is Orochimaru!
Who can compete for Fourth Hokage's position?
The prestige of Orochimaru now makes even Danzo dare not act rashly, wantonly smearing and spreading rumors.
Because I don't believe it at all.
Everyone knows that Orochimaru is loyal and loyal. He not only made great contributions to Second Ninja War, but also led Konoha Ninja to defeat Sunagakure and Kumogakure.
He even tried his best to fight for any possible benefit for Konohagakure at the negotiation table, but he didn't even have the money to do the experiment.
Orochimaru, Konohagakure ranks among the top ten people who moved Konohagakure for forty-four years.
Lord Orochimaru, he is really, I cried to death...
And if Orochimaru takes over from Fourth Hokage, what about the fifth generation?
Fourth Hokage hasn't even appeared yet, and generally no one will care about the fifth generation, so that's still far away.
But if you really want to calculate it, Kakashi has the greatest chance!
Shikun Mitarashi is a little worried. Anko and Kakashi don't have many opportunities to come into contact!
On the contrary, Rin Nohara has a great chance!
Do you want to invest in Rin Nohara yourself?
Yūhi Shinku had this idea at first, but when he thought about Third Hokage's son focusing on his own cabbage...
Orochimaru and Kakashi also didn't expect that Kurenai Yūhi and Shikun Mitarashi would think of so many, far and strange things in their heads.
"Has the Chunin Ninja Exams form been filled out?"
"Adoptive Father, our team has submitted and approved the application of Chunin Ninja Exams."
"I don't have to worry about your strength, as long as Minato Squad doesn't meet Orochimaru Squad before the finals, because I can't say which of your classes will win."
Kakashi felt that actually based on his own strength, the first place must be his, but considering that the three of Orochimaru Squad were taught by his adoptive father, they might have something, so he did not refute.
"Father, if I really meet Orochimaru Squad, I won't show mercy!"
"I'm very confident... but you really can't touch me, that's what I said."
"Huh?"
"Kakashi, Lord Orochimaru is the Chief Examiner of this Chunin Ninja Exams."
Shikun Mitarashi and Kakashi are relatively familiar, so they explained to Kakashi with a smile.
"Your mission this time is not just as simple as passing Chunin Ninja Exams, but to show the power of the new generation of ninjas Konohagakure through Chunin Ninja Exams, and tell them that Konohagakure is still the strongest even after many years of war, whether it is the older generation, the younger generation, or you, the new generation."
"What the foster father means is..."
"Just make it look good, be more handsome, and make more noise to make you look strong."
Kakashi nodded, pretending to be cool, he can do this.
Orochimaru decided to let him pretend to be bigger.
"This is..."
Kakashi took a scroll with the word "purple" written on it from Orochimaru.
"The Chidori jutsu has certain flaws, and it cannot perfectly utilize your talents in Lightning Release. Although this Purple Electricity is a S-rank ninjutsu, it is of the same level as Chidori. Even if it cannot be mastered, it can still improve the Chidori you are using."
"Adoptive Father Don't worry! I will definitely prove to everyone that the son of Konoha's White Fang and Cold Lord Orochimaru is the strongest!"
Kakashi ran away after saying that. He couldn't wait to practice new techniques.
Orochimaru has several black lines left on his forehead...
What are the sons of Konoha's White Fang and Cold Lord Orochimaru?
Your biological father and I don't have that kind of relationship!!!
On this day, not only Orochimaru was running a small stove for Kakashi, but Asuma Sarutobi, Kurenai Yūhi, Mitaraishi Anko, Might Guy, etc. all started special training under the supervision of their parents after returning home.
Two days later.
"Adoptive Father."
Kakashi pulled Orochimaru to the training ground.
"Kakashi, are you confused about the new technique?"
Kakashi shook his head. At this time, a girl with purple paint on her face and a Uchiha boy wearing windproof goggles came to the edge of the training ground.
Rin Nohara's family are all civilian ninjas. At this time, Minato Namikaze is still on the front line and has not returned.
No one could give her guidance, and after Kakashi learned about this, she hoped to ask Orochimaru to come and give her guidance.
Obito Uchiha originally participated in this Chunin Ninja Exams with several Uchiha Clan Genin who were undergoing special training under the leadership of one Uchiha Jōnin.
But when I heard that there was a way to get close to Orochimaru, I kicked Obito out decisively and asked him to establish a good relationship with Orochimaru on behalf of Uchiha.
"Lord Orochimaru! Please!"
Rin Nohara bowed politely to Orochimaru.
Kakashi on the side saw Obito still looking dumbly, and directly pressed his head and bowed to Orochimaru with him.
"Adoptive Father, please, we are a team after all. Only if they give me enough support can I better utilize my strength."
"Kakashi! What do you mean! We won't hold you back!"
Orochimaru agreed.
He is very curious about Obito Uchiha. If he is used as bait, can he catch a spotted fish?
"In this case, let me see your strength..."
"Are you going to fight Lord Orochimaru?"
"It's no fun fighting a bunch of kids. I want to see you guys fight Orochimaru Squad."
Just herding a sheep is herding, and so is herding a group of sheep. Since you are bringing three of them, let's just call them Orochimaru Squad. This will facilitate pair training and allow them to adapt to Chunin Ninja Exams's team confrontation in advance.
