I'll Go With You!

Apart from Kirigakure, the number of Genin other villages is relatively normal. They sent out elite teams according to their own size, and there shouldn't be any shoddy work or underhanded tactics.

As for Kabuto Yakushi's team from the original story, they no longer exist; Shuichi didn't see them when he received the registration list.

Therefore, it is highly unlikely that Orochimaru would come to the Forest of Death to cause trouble. However, it is impossible to guess what orders the three members of the Otogakure's Dosu, Zaku, and Kin group received.

"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."

Shuichi turned his attention to Gaara and other troublemakers. Konoha wasn't in the crippled state it was in the original story; he wanted to see who dared to cause trouble...

The examinees didn't have to wait long before the Possession Jutsu on the classroom platform suddenly activated.

Amidst the wisps of smoke, the examiners, led by Morino Ibiki, made their appearance. Each of them wore a standard dark gray uniform, and their combined presence exuded a heavy sense of pressure.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting. My name is Morino Ibiki, and I'm the proctor for the first session of the Chunin Ninja Exams!"

The scarred, burly man's deep voice echoed in the room, "I'm glad you didn't cause any trouble. Since fighting among candidates is prohibited during the exam, anyone who violates this rule will be immediately disqualified!"

"Since everyone understands the rules, then... let's begin the first exam!"

Please submit your application form first, then receive your number and sit in your assigned seat. Your appointment will then be announced.

Apart from Naruto, whose expression changed drastically, all the examinees remained calm, though their inner thoughts were unknown and their faces did not reveal it.

Everyone immediately took their seats in the order required, Morino Ibiki began to announce the exam rules.

Shuichi didn't make many demands regarding this.

The core objective remains the same: to assess the intelligence-gathering abilities of the Genin, and then allow them to develop their skills freely, which is largely unchanged from the original work.

Once the exam officially began, the Genin quickly displayed their various cheating methods.

Some characters openly allow dogs to spy on them, while others use various insects to transmit information. Other unique abilities such as props, hearing, and Dōjutsu are also gradually revealed.

Only the ordinary, unremarkable Genin suffer the most.

They wanted to answer the questions but found they couldn't answer many at all; they wanted to cheat but were constantly on edge, unaware that the examiners had already caught them several times. Before long, teams were eliminated one after another.

Whoosh... thud!

A Kunai Naruto's side and stuck into the exam paper of the examinee behind him.

Kotetsu Hagane, expressionless, said, "You cheated five times, you're disqualified from the exam. The other two in your team, come out with him, hurry up!"

"I... damn it, how could this be...?"

Two Chunin stood up, picked up the unqualified Genin, and threw them out. Naruto unconsciously swallowed.

"I'm doomed! I can't answer a single question!"

He was excited for a while when he first received the exam paper because he could understand all the questions, but when he was about to start writing, he found that his mind went blank.

The knowledge from the Ninja Academy is indeed in my mind, but I can't actually put it into practice...

Just as Naruto was struggling with the thought of peeking to the side, the scene before him suddenly blurred.

The classroom was still the same classroom, and everyone was the same. "Was it just my imagination? Huh?"

The once blank exam paper was now covered in light-colored pen marks. Upon closer inspection, "Haha, I knew it! These questions weren't difficult at all. Hmm... the solution method is exactly what I thought!"

[You idiot! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and copy it!]

A line of light-colored writing appeared at the top blank space of the exam paper, causing Naruto to freeze in shock, "Sakura...?"

Haruno Sakura, sitting a few rows behind him, was completely speechless. A guy who fell under a simple Genjutsu and still took the Genjutsu scene as real—there was probably no one else but her teammate.

"..."

Reality brought Naruto back to his senses. He completely forgot how he had behaved just now, and immediately started writing furiously with a beaming smile, looking almost like a true academic genius.

His actions made the proctor wonder if there was something wrong with his eyes. How could this special needs child suddenly become so skilled, leaving no trace of cheating? Was he just writing randomly?

Sasuke, sitting in the back rows, was practically cursing. His Sharingan on Naruto's arm, and he could sense the strange excitement in Naruto's arms just from his back.

You're not only copying, but you're also making it so blatant. Are you trying to make sure everyone knows?

Now, the nearby examinees will definitely turn their attention to Naruto and check his answers directly, without having to bother to verify which Chunin provided the answers, thus needlessly increasing the number of competitors for the Second Stage exam.

"Never mind, I'm looking forward to facing off against someone skilled anyway..."

Sasuke thought to himself, while his hands continued to move.

Sakura was originally going to pass him the answer, but now she's just copying Naruto's, saving herself all the trouble...

In the blink of an eye, a few minutes had passed.

The exam had been going on for about 30 minutes when a black-clad Sunagakure Ninja sitting in the middle suddenly stood up and raised his hand, "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

"I see..." The Konoha proctor in charge of these rows had a handsome appearance. He squinted at Kankuro, then stood up and said:

"If you need to go to the restroom during the exam, you must be accompanied by an invigilator. I'll go with you then."

Kankuro: "..."

Kankuro was stiffly handcuffed and led to the toilet like a leashed puppy.

The Ninja Academy's toilets are quite modern, with partitions separating the several urinals, and they're kept very clean—definitely a great place to relieve oneself.

But when he stood in front of the chamber pot and pulled down his pants, he felt... not a drop.

"Why aren't you peeing anymore?" the proctor's light voice came from the side. "You're not lying to me, are you? Or... are you planning to poop in the toilet? No problem, I can hold it even if it stinks."

Kankuro almost lost his temper, thinking he should use Crow to stab this despicable proctor to death.

But his puppet is still in the examination hall, so he's afraid he won't be able to defeat the opponent in a real fight.

"Ugh, ugh..."

Kankuro's body tensed and relaxed repeatedly as he strained with all his might to squeeze between his legs. After a long while, he finally managed to release a little urine.

However, due to insufficient internal pressure, it couldn't even reach the porcelain wall of the urinal, which was right next to it, and a small amount of dark yellow liquid slowly slid down the baby's pants.

Beep beep--

After squeezing out all the surviving urine, Kankuro immediately shook his penis, quickly pulled up his pants, turned around, and indicated that he was done urinating and ready to go back.

"Oh, what a pity there's only such a small portion."

On the way back to the exam room after leaving the restroom, the proctor remarked casually, "You don't look that old, but I didn't expect your prostatitis to be so severe. The ninjas of Sunagakure are really pushing themselves too hard!"

Damn it, I'll remember you!

Kankuro was furious, his face extremely pale. He never expected that as the Son of the Kazekage, he would feel Konoha's deep malice in the very first round of the Chunin Ninja Exams.

"What happened? The Crow didn't go with them?"

Temari, the blonde girl sitting in the back row, immediately noticed Kankuro's expression, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. "The answer isn't coming through, what do we do..."

Gaara, the younger brother with mental health issues, sits at the front. He could easily obtain the answer using the secret technique of the Sand Eye, but he would never pass it on to the two of them. Could they really be eliminated...?

"Alright, time's up!" Morino Ibiki's voice rang out instantly. "Now, let's announce the tenth question. Everyone, listen carefully."

"Regarding question ten, I would like to add a few rules..."

His face darkened, and a cold smile slowly crept onto his lips, "You must first choose whether to [take the exam] or [not take it]..."

"..."

Hmph!

Upon hearing the rules of the tenth question, Naruto immediately calmed down, instead confidently crossing his arms and displaying an extremely arrogant demeanor.

"That's it? No matter how difficult the question is, it won't stump me... Team 7, bring it on!"

Seeing this incongruous scene, Shuichi was both amused and exasperated.

When the rules for the tenth question were announced, the ninjas from other villages didn't care much. On the contrary, the lowly Genin from Konoha were greatly affected, and several groups of them left one after another.

After all, their own village could truly determine their future promotions, so the examiner probably said that with the Lord Hokage's approval.

After Genin were supposed to leave had left, Morino Ibiki, seeing that no one else was moving, finally smiled and said, "Congratulations to everyone present, I hereby declare that you have all passed the first exam!"
