Participating in the Chunin Exam, I Was Broadcast Live!

The others couldn't keep up with Naruto's train of thought.

However, they were all unaware that Naruto in the original story would indeed end up like this even by the time of Boruto's generation.

Everyone was expecting him to take off his forehead protector, but instead, he went to get a haircut.

After a short while, Kakashi Hatake, who had just gone offline, finally found Naruto and Kitahara Kaede.

He also brought Sasuke along, having gotten the information from Izuna.

"Kakashi, didn't you give us a day off?"

"I don't have time to play with you,"

Sasuke said.

Sasuke's strength was progressing rapidly. If he hadn't been summoned, he would have gone to Kitahara Kaede for help to continue training with Shadow Clones.

Like Naruto, he was learning Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, but his chakra couldn't support his clones, so he had to borrow chakra from Kitahara Kaede.

Therefore.

He found Kakashi to be a bit of a bother and unnecessarily verbose.

"..." Kakashi.

Who did this Sasuke get that attitude from?

Kakashi couldn't feel any respect from Sasuke.

Also, when Sasuke addressed him, he didn't even use the respectful title "Teacher."

"It's probably just to inform us of something," Kitahara Kaede remarked.

"Oh," but Sasuke immediately became obedient.

"..."

This change in attitude made Kakashi uncomfortable.

Kakashi suddenly realized that his authority within the team had greatly diminished.

He was, after all, the Jonin Instructor for this team.

But both Sasuke and Naruto felt that Kitahara Kaede was more approachable...

He also hadn't really made Naruto and Sasuke strong; all of that was done by Kitahara Kaede.

If he had been the one to teach them, it would probably have been the usual stuff like climbing trees or walking on water by controlling chakra.

He definitely couldn't achieve what Sasuke and Naruto were doing now.

Alright.

Kakashi instantly understood the current situation.

This team was already very delicate.

Sasuke was an orphan of the Uchiha Clan, and Naruto was the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails and also the son of Teacher Minato. Furthermore, Kitahara Kaede was an awakened Wood Release user, highly regarded by the Second Hokage, and potentially the Fifth Hokage.

In that case, he, who was designated by the system as the Sixth Hokage, would eventually be managed by Kitahara Kaede...

Fine.

He had nothing more to say.

"Actually, this is to inform you that the Chunin Exam will be held in two weeks."

"The Chunin Exam will be hosted by Konoha, and genin from various other ninja villages will be present."

"Due to differences in teaching methods, curriculum, and various philosophies among the ninja villages, their skill levels will vary greatly."

"But I hope you will participate to gain some experience," Kakashi said.

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, both Sasuke and Naruto showed a hint of joy.

Naruto wanted to gain recognition from others, and what better place to show off than this widely known major exam?

As for Sasuke... he wanted to increase his strength, and weren't all these genin from other villages just experience points?

Kitahara Kaede then asked.

"Is it really okay for rookies like us to participate in this kind of exam?" Kitahara Kaede asked. "According to the schedule, we haven't even been graduated from the Ninja Academy for a month yet."

"Oh, that's right!"

Sasuke and Naruto realized it.

After all, they hadn't completed many missions.

They hadn't even held the status of genin for very long.

"Pfft..."

"Cough, cough—"

Kakashi almost spat out his drink.

It wasn't just him; everyone in the group was the same.

[Observing Kitahara Kaede?(^_-) Small Group]

[Hashirama Senju]: Haha, I never realized this guy was so good at pretending.

[Tobirama Senju]: Isn't that the truth? Naruto and that Uchiha brat...

[Brother of Hashirama Senju]: Tobirama, be polite. What do you mean "that Uchiha brat"? Don't deliberately insult him just because Sasuke looks like me.

[Tobirama Senju]: And who is it that looks down on Sasuke the most? Isn't it you?

[Brother of Hashirama Senju]: Hmph!

[Brother of Hashirama Senju]: @Kakashi, before the Chunin Exam, at least raise Sasuke's Sharingan to one tomoe.

[Brother of Hashirama Senju]: This guy is the last bloodline of the Uchiha Clan, right? XX looks so much like me, but he only has one tomoe. It's embarrassing!

[Unmarriageable Older Single Woman]: The Chunin Exam, indeed... I need to prepare. I'm logging off. My Kirigakure also needs people assigned.

Soon, Mei Terumi logged off.

[Worst Kazekage - Rasa]: ...

Rasa didn't say anything because he had been betrayed by Orochimaru, but he didn't know about Gaara, Temari, and the others' situations.

He didn't know if they would still proceed with the plan to invade Konoha during this Chunin Exam.

[Might Guy]: Ha, the Chunin Exam, my cute team will of course participate.

[Might Guy]: But I need to go find Neji and do some psychological work.

[Might Guy]: I don't want him to impulsively go after Kitahara Kaede again.

Clearly, Might Guy had the title of "Man Recognized by Madara Uchiha" and the attribute of "Strongest," but he always felt... Kitahara Kaede was unusual.

Otherwise, why was everyone watching him?

However, everyone also felt that Kitahara Kaede and the others would definitely pass the exam.

Kitahara Kaede's strength was unknown, but Naruto and Sasuke could already become Chunin just by looking at their taijutsu, not even their ninjutsu.

How could they not pass the Chunin Exam?

After all.

It's just a Chunin Exam, what's so difficult about it?

Chapter 046: Kakashi's Request! (Seeking Data!)

It was just a Chunin Exam, which was not a problem for Kakashi, a Jonin with 7 years of Chunin experience...

However, he was facing more than just ordinary pressure.

Although he wasn't participating... as the Jonin Instructor for Team 7, he was under immense pressure.

On one hand, there was pressure from the Hokage legends in the [Observing Kitahara Kaede?(^_-) Small Group].

First of all.

Naruto's life had always been miserable, and then the Chunin Exam suddenly appeared... naturally, he had to make a good appearance.

And he felt that Naruto's current taijutsu could even defeat him, but... the people in the group were complaining and indignant about the Third Hokage.

Therefore...

After announcing Team 7's participation in the Chunin Exam, Kakashi had to get busy.

Naruto's further improvement.

Then Sasuke's... Sharingan tomoe improvement.

Lord Izuna said Sasuke looked too much like him, and it was embarrassing to disgrace him with Izuna's face. He couldn't bear this shame.

So...

Sasuke's Sharingan also needed to be improved.

So he could only entrust him... like hell he could!

Kakashi is Kakashi Hatake, not Uchiha Kakashi.

So how would he know how to awaken the Sharingan?

Moreover, Izuna himself said he awakened it naturally, so what could he do? How could he make Sasuke go from one tomoe to two?

He was also desperate.

So.

After tricking Naruto and Sasuke away, Kakashi kept Kitahara Kaede behind alone.

However.

Before that.

"So..."

Kitahara Kaede sat inside Ichiraku Ramen. Ayame, the beautiful daughter of the shop owner, was holding the menu and letting Kakashi choose.

But Kakashi didn't choose. Instead, he handed the menu to Kitahara Kaede.

"Teacher Kakashi, are you really treating me to ramen?"

Kitahara Kaede said.

After Naruto and Sasuke went for training, Kakashi had kept him behind alone.

And then invited him for a meal.

"Yes..."

"You can have as many bowls as you want," Kakashi said. "I'll pay for it all."

"..." Kitahara Kaede.

Although he felt Ichiraku Ramen was affordable and money from the Land of Waves, which Mei Terumi was handling, would arrive soon.

Kitahara Kaede felt it was okay for someone to treat him to a meal in the early stages.

And so.

Kitahara Kaede ultimately chose a relatively luxurious seafood ramen.

Kakashi remained silent.

"Your seafood ramen is here."

Miss Ayame brought the ramen over.

Instantly, the enticing aroma made one's appetite soar.

Kitahara Kaede had chosen the seafood ramen, which came with four large shrimp, fish balls, meat balls, as well as crucian carp and fish meat.

Although it looked simple, the flavor was extremely rich.

Kitahara Kaede took a gentle sip of the broth.
