Akaseki I don't know why, but many people seem to think that they rely on Tanuki Treasure?
This is no wonder, after all, apart from teammates, everyone in the village has heard some news at most, and among the "news" about Akaseki, undoubtedly the most eye-catching one is "signed a contract with Ninja Beast, the legacy of the Uzumaki Clan".
Kurama didn't say it clearly, and Akaseki couldn't admit it to himself, so he turned to look at Ranwu.
Ranwu saw that Akaseki's eyes were asking him, "Have you told others about my Fire Style wearing eight?", so he responded with "Why should I tell you?" Byakugan.
"Hanzō is very strong, but Land of Rain has a small population and not many ninjas, and he is located between the three major countries. He doesn't want to be anyone's chess piece. I'm afraid Land of Rain can only be a chessboard." Minato shook his head with a compassionate tone at this time.
Regarding Minato's chessboard theory, the three people from Team 8 looked weird and did not refute it, but they did not believe it either. In their opinion, Amegakure was originally one of the top five hidden villages, and there is a master like Hanzō here, so it shouldn't be... right?
But Akaseki and Ranwu believed it----
What about Amegakure, Akaseki and Ranwu don't understand, but they understand Minato. Minato is not only strong and smart, but also has a great perspective on the overall situation.
"But what's even more unexpected is that Iwagakure actually agreed to send someone - I heard that Tsuchikage's son will also come to Konoha to participate in Chunin Ninja Exams, and he is about the same age as us." Inuzuka Tsume then brought the topic back.
"Of course! Don't look at who Iwagakure is on the mission!" Akaseki said immediately.
Although now Akaseki feels that mirror Clan Elder is also a little crazy, but the direction of the seizure is different from Clan Leader and Lanyu Clan Elder, but this does not affect that he is Uchiha Clan, and Akaseki will be honored for his contribution!
"This shouldn't be the point -" Byakugan said.
"Compared to Hanzō, Ōnoki is indeed the real Two Scales." Minato said with emotion.
Before this, as Konoha Ninja, everyone's general impression of Iwagakure was that the relationship was not as bad as Sunagakure, nor as good as Kumogakure. "Ōnoki" was a master of water transfer.
It is precisely because of this that during the Second Hokage period, the relationship between Iwagakure and Konoha was cold, the relationship with Kumogakure was hostile, and the relationship with Sunagakure was good----
However, after the second generation was killed and Kumogakure stabbed Konoha in the back, Iwagakure's diplomatic strategy also turned around. The relationship with Sunagakure became cold, and instead he began to get close to Konoha, seemingly looking for a new balance point.
"Speaking of which--I don't know how to take the preliminary and final exams, but the preliminary exam must be a written test. Are you Team 7 okay?" Inuzuka Tsume smiled evilly at this time.
Akaseki said immediately, "Of course, although Minato and Ranwu graduated early, I can make up lessons for them!"
Inuzuka Tsume, Shibi Aburame, Kurama Murakumo:----
What you said is very fair, but the problem is——
"Akaseki, Chunin Ninja Exams's written examination is much more difficult than the graduation examination. There are usually no more than ten graduates in each class who can directly pass the Chunin Ninja Exams written examination, you know, right?" Shibi Aburame reminded.
"Haha, maybe he secretly made up classes after graduation." Kurama Murakumo said deliberately.
Akaseki:----
Speaking of which, although Akaseki's written test scores in the Ninja Academy are not lagging behind, they are only at the mid-range level!
On the contrary, Minato and Ranwu, who graduated early, could still be ranked at the top even if they took the graduation examination paper directly.
"Then, of course - it's just a written test - and how can Chunin Ninja Exams be the same as the graduation exam!" Akaseki insisted.
Ranwu raised his forehead when he saw this - I really forgot to ask before----
How many students can take the Akaseki graduation written examination?
After the three people from Team 8 left, Ranwu specifically asked, "Are you okay? Starting tomorrow, after Taijutsu trains, you can come to my house for tutoring!"
"Of course I can!" Akaseki immediately said with a pinched neck, "What kind of make-up lessons - no need, no need at all!"
Minato:----
"Akaseki, Ranwu and I have also missed one or two years of courses. Starting tomorrow, let's form a study group together and learn from each other, okay?" Minato said after a moment of silence.
"That--okay."
Obviously, Minato still has a way to "deal with" Akaseki.
Konoha Year 36, June 7, noon.
Akaseki and Ranwu came to Forest Street together after training in the "Taijutsu+Medical Ninjutsu" combination----
"How about I go home first? I just practiced Taijutsu and I want to take a bath." Although Akaseki is not pretentious and can tolerate being outside no matter what, it's not like he can't go home now, so he still wants to take a bath.
Ranwu looked at Akaseki, frowned for a while and then said, "Uchiha Clan lives too far away, go directly to my house to wash!"
Akaseki:----
Who planned the various Shinobi Clan clan lands? It's so hard to guess!
When Akaseki and Ranwu came to the intersection of Forest Street, they found that Minato had already arrived. At this time, Third Uncle Fourth Uncle and Fourth Uncle, who did not have a surname, were still at the intersection.
The seven aunts and eight aunts chatted with each other, looking like they were very popular.
"Come to study with Ranwu? Well, you young people should study more!"
"We Qian----cough cough, we have a lot of archived information about previous Chunin. You can take a look at it."
"Ranwu I must thank you for taking care of me."
Akaseki:???
Akaseki feels like being targeted for some reason!
The atmosphere didn't seem to be like this last time I came here. Could it be an illusion?
"Minato, you are already here." Ranwu called at this time.
"Well, have you finished training?" Minato looked at Ranwu and Akaseki and said.
Third Uncle Fourth Uncle, seventh aunt and eighth aunt:----
Akaseki I felt that they suddenly became serious.
"Ahem, let's go in quickly, I still have to take a shower." Akaseki urged.
"Uchiha Clan Isn't there a place to take a shower?" A middle-aged man without a last name curled his lips.
"Then----Ranwu, why don't you come to my house to study?" Akaseki asked tentatively.
Ranwu:----
"Uncle Yuecheng! Akaseki is also here to study. Going home and taking a shower first will waste too much time!" Ranwu complained.
"I didn't say anything—just wash it! By the way, Lanjun's bathtub is very big—"
"That's right, why don't you come to my house to wash it, kid?"
Akaseki:----
Akaseki decided to go to Ranwu's house to wash it.
After washing up, I "study and discuss" with Ranwu and Minato.
The reason why I came to Ranwu's home is not only because her home is in a moderate location and not far from the training ground, but also because her home has a relatively complete range of materials!
Some of Chunin Ninja Exams's previous written examination questions are confidentially stored, but some have no confidentiality level. Ranwu's family has backups of these, so the study group is placed in Ranwu's family.
You won't know if you don't try, you'll find out after you try----
Akaseki This test is really awesome!
Ordinarily, when Akaseki graduated, the written test was average and the actual performance was above average. Overall, it was not a hindrance, but----
Now we have to put it on the difficulty level of Chunin Ninja Exams. The score of Akaseki is not good enough!
Of course, in actual combat, it goes without saying that Akaseki has already transformed itself in these three and a half months.
This also makes the written exam very slow!
"It is true that Chunin Ninja Exams and the written examination for the graduation examination are quite different in nature----" Akaseki said with emotion.
This is also a good thing. Akaseki's poor foundation is not considered a weakness at this time.
Compared with the "knowledge point assessment" of the graduation examination, Chunin Ninja Exams focuses entirely on actual combat, basically "simulating the environment, providing data on the enemy and friends", and asking candidates to make "combat strategy arrangements".
Akaseki, who has experienced actual combat, actually has more advantages in doing this kind of question than asking him to do a simple Ninja Academy knowledge point assessment.
"Then your consumption must be calculated correctly and the attack path must be drawn well!" Ranwu directly pointed out Akaseki's problem.
Indeed, the questions in Chunin Ninja Exams are not as rigid as those in the Ninja Academy----
Generally speaking, it is [what environment you are in], [what is the current battle situation], [what is the enemy's situation], [what strength or resources do we have], and [what goal do we want to achieve]. After clarifying these five, candidates are required to make future combat tactical arrangements.
The freedom is very high, but Akaseki can easily figure out "eight Fire Style can't kill one Genin", "one Explosive Tag can kill Miraculous results such as "Elite Jonin's face blew up the protector to death", "Genin chakra becomes more and more the more you use it", "hundreds of billions of Explosive Tag are needed to achieve the goal", which lead to big problems in tactical derivation--.--
This is no longer a problem with battlefield tactics, it is simply a matter of poor basic skills and a lack of understanding of numbers.
In the words of Akaseki - shouldn't this be "feelable"? Who can count on the battlefield?
But it's useless for him to say this. If you don't give points, you won't give points----
Fortunately, there is still time to "make up lessons".
In a blink of an eye----
Konoha Year 36, June 27.
There are only three days left until the joint Chunin Ninja Exams.
In the past half month, Akaseki and Ranwu were sparring with Might Duy every morning.
In the afternoon, I invite Minato to work together, either to do some C-level tasks that don't require traveling far away, or to form a "study group" to review together, and in the evening I continue to practice "Immersion".
Fortunately, the study group has been very efficient during this half month----
Akaseki estimates that he should be the Uchiha Clan who has entered Forest Street the most times now.
After all, Konoha Military Police Force usually doesn't come to patrol Forest Street!
At the beginning, Akaseki was still very concerned about the looks in Ranwu's eyes, those Third Uncle Fourth Uncle, the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt, but later——Akaseki got used to it.
After all, apart from always bringing refreshments when everyone is halfway through their studies and in good learning condition, it seems like they haven't done much.
Seeing that there were only three days left until Chunin Ninja Exams, Minato specifically said during the study discussion, "At this time, I think I can bet on the question----"
"The question? Isn't the scope too big? And you must know that this time the three hidden villages are asked together." Ranwu said in surprise.
Chunin Ninja Exams doesn't have much question bank----
Theoretically, all situations that can be encountered on the battlefield are test points!
"You can also make a bet - I think we should focus on reviewing the terrain and information related to Amegakure." Minato said matter-of-factly.
Obviously, the current question of Minato is still based on the previous "chessboard theory".
"Okay! Then just bet on the question. It only lasts three days anyway, so there is little point in continuing to study separately." Akaseki decisively chose to believe Minato.
