The day has finally arrived. Team 7 followed Kakashi's instructions and came to the familiar building of the Ninja Academy. They quickly found their target - a classroom with a "301" sign hanging at the door.
However, the scene in front of him was somewhat unexpected. At the door of the classroom, a young man with a mushroom head wearing a green tights was being pushed by two Ninja, as if he was being beaten.
It's Rock Lee. Although Naruto knew that he was probably carrying out a "low-key" operation, but the way he moved up to get beaten... wasn't it a bit too real?
The two Ninja blocking the door had an extremely arrogant attitude and kept mocking the candidates who were trying to enter the classroom.
"With your little ability, are you worthy enough to participate in Chunin Ninja Exams?"
"I think everyone should go back! You young brats can't even get through this door!"
At this time, a cute-looking girl with a bun in her head - Tenten, quickly stepped forward to support the somewhat embarrassed Rock Lee, and begged in a pitiful and crying tone. "Please, please let us go..."
The Byakugan boy standing aside - Riyan Neji, silently turned his face to the side.
Of course, it's not that I feel ashamed because my teammates are humiliated and I feel helpless. It's because I can't stand the poor performance of these two guys pretending to be pigs and eating tigers here, and the overly committed "acting" of their teammates... It's so embarrassing.
Although the two people at the door used the rather sophisticated Transformation Jutsu, in the eyes of Naruto, their true identities were clearly visible - they were the two "door gods" of Konoha, Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki.
Speaking of which, when Naruto was three years old ten years ago, when he pretended to attack Konoha as 'Menma' for the second time, he seemed to have blown up the door directly?
Thinking about it this way, couldn't I have done something that even Pain couldn't do? But at that time, these two people were knocked down by 'Nine-Headed Beasts' in the first round...
Naruto silently apologized in his heart for what happened ten years ago.
Sakura beside him looked at the angry scene of this man and temporarily stopped pretending to write in his palms due to nervousness. She was keenly aware that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere. Is it Illusionary Barrier?
For the Uchiha clan who are proficient in illusions, seeing through this kind of illusion barrier is as easy as asking Sasuki to do a one plus one math problem. Zuo Yue just glanced at it lightly, and there was a trace of imperceptible disdain at the corner of her mouth.
Naruto obviously knows that this is the first hidden level of Chunin Ninja Exams - testing whether the candidates have the basic insight to see through Genjutsu. Even without anyone reminding him, he had already noticed that the chakra flow in this space was abnormally distorted, and his perception was particularly clear.
Strange, why do I feel that this kind of energy fluctuation is particularly sensitive... Could it be that I actually have the talent to practice Sensory Ninjutsu like 'Mind's Eye of the Kagura'?
"Hey! Isn't this Uncle Izumo and Uncle Izumo Kamizuki?" Naruto's face broke into a warm smile like sunshine, and he waved to the two people who were still performing hard, "Why don't you go to guard Konoha Gate instead of guarding the entrance to the examination room? However, the real examination room has to be upgraded to a higher level."
Since Land of Waves had carried out several short-distance missions out of the village after the mission, Naruto had already become familiar with the two Konoha "door gods".
Izumo and Izumo Kamizuki, who were taunting the candidates, froze in place instantly, their movements and expressions frozen. This kid... Ju Yi directly told the answer in front of everyone?!
"What? Do we know each other? You... what are you talking about? Why can't I understand it at all?" The two tried to pretend to be stupid and hide the embarrassment on their faces.
At this moment, Satsuki was keenly aware of an unusual line of sight. She turned her head suddenly and found a young man with pure white pupils not far away, staring straight at Naruto without any hesitation.
Riyan Neji is full of surprise and confusion at this moment. Why? It was obviously the first time I met this blond boy, why did I feel such an indescribable feeling of intimacy in my heart?
On the other side, under the attack of Naruto's series of firm identifications and hearty smiles, Izumo and Izumo Kamizuki finally gave up their struggle and reluctantly admitted defeat.
They also knew that the young man in front of them was Genin, whom Kakashi and even Third Hokage valued highly, so they had no choice but to explain with a wry smile. Under the astonished gazes of the examinees around them, the two men's figures suddenly changed and returned to their original appearance of adult Ninja who was nearly thirty years old. They frankly admitted their identity as the examiner, then dismissed Illusionary Barrier and hurriedly left the scene.
"Let's go, Satsuki, Sakura."
Seeing the house number change from "301" back to the original "201", Naruto was about to call his two teammates to go upstairs, but unexpectedly found that Sasaki was glaring at Hikata Neji with a wary expression, like a kitten guarding its food. Neji, on the other hand, stared at him closely with a gaze that contained suppressed passion, which made Naruto feel a little scared.
It's strange... why is he looking at me like this? According to the setting, his 'full level of favorability' should be [Menma], right?
Neji At this moment, he was analyzing it rapidly in his heart, and he finally figured out where this inexplicable sense of intimacy came from - it was that deep-seated sense of security!
Only ten years ago, on that night that changed the fate of him and his parents, and the man who accompanied him and gave him salvation - Mr. Menma, did he feel the same aura!
Could it be that... the person in front of me has some kind of connection with Mr. Menma?
For Neji Ruyan, his biggest dream is to repay the benefactor Menma who saved his parents, gain his recognition, and become his assistant. His second dream is to meet again the being who scares the entire Ninja World, but who alone gives him light. In his heart, Menma is not a disaster, but the beauty that he most longs to see again.
Tenten on the side finally noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere. She looked at her aloof teammate Neji. At this moment, she was staring at a boy from another team with such... indescribable eyes? Teammate Rock Lee on the other side is firmly locking the pink-haired girl in the opponent's team with his shining eyes with a racing heart...
