"Hoo"
Once again, Sarutobi picked up the cigarette rod in his hand and took a puff, then blew out a gray smoke ring and showed a comfortable smile. Then he spoke to the person below, qun,
"Okay, since you all have no questions, let's go to the third training ground, where... that's where all of you will compete in the first knockout round"!
After saying that, Sarutobi's figure flashed and disappeared above the Hokage building, disappearing without a trace.
"Contestants, please follow me. Next, I, Nara Shikaku, will take you to the third training ground." Shikaku, who had a small scar on his face, suddenly appeared in front of Jun Tianlin and said to a large number of people taking the Jonin exam in front of him.
The next second, after Shikaku finished speaking, he turned around and walked to the right, without even glancing at the people behind him...
Of course, there was no need for Shikaku to remind him. Everyone, including Jun Tianlin, took the initiative to follow Shikaku, and a large group of people walked forward with great momentum.
A few minutes later, at the entrance of Training Ground No. 3...
"You all listen carefully. I believe you have heard what the Third Generation said before. If you want to participate in this jounin exam, you need to sign the life and death agreement prepared by Konoha. Once the exam starts, life and death will each have their destiny!
If you are willing to sign this agreement, please stand in a row and come over one by one. After signing the agreement, you can enter the No. 3 training ground... If you are not willing, then please go back and forth wherever you go."
The blond Yamanaka Inoichi held the life and death agreement in his left hand, pointed to the agreement on his left hand with his right hand, and spoke loudly to the large number of people in front of him who came to take the jounin exam.
After hearing what Yamanaka Inoichi said, there was a brief commotion in the densely packed crowd. However, because they had heard Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi talk about this before, the people who came here were already mentally prepared.
After a brief commotion, the large group of people lined up one after another, walked in front of Yamanaka Inoichi one by one, signed a life and death agreement, and then entered the No. 3 training ground.
However, before entering the No. 3 training ground, everyone who signed a life-and-death agreement was given a number plate by Yamanaka Inoichi, saying that it would be used in the next knockout round... Although I didn't know it, but when I heard that it would be used in the next knockout round, everyone who entered the No. 3 training ground took the number plate.
Ten minutes later, finally, when Jun Tianlin and Kimimaro also signed the life and death agreement, took their number plates and entered the training ground No. 3, all the people who participated in the Jonin exam finally signed in!
"Wow"
The moment Jun Tianlin walked into the No. 3 training ground, cheers and screams rang out, echoing in Jun Tianlin's ears.
Subconsciously, Jun Tianlin raised his head and took a look, instantly admiring Sarutobi... He is really worthy of being an old fox who has lived for decades. His methods are so extraordinary that there are no limits, his face is so thick that there is no limit, and his mind is so black that he is so awesome!
..
I saw that the rows of seats above the No. 3 training ground were already filled with people, and densely packed people crowded on the viewing platform above, cheering loudly.
Needless to say, the reason why these people appeared here must be that Sarutobi, the old immortal, had publicized it in advance, so that these people paid their own money to buy tickets, treating them as those who took the exam as monkey tricks to watch the show...
In doing so, not only did Konoha earn a large amount of money out of thin air, but it also made the ordinary people addicted to the eyes, so happy, it was really a clever way to kill two birds with one stone!
What makes Jun Tianlin even more speechless is that... on the highest platform, not only the old guy Sarutobi is sitting aside, but also several other Konoha High Commands - Danzo from the "root" department, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura from the Presbyterian Church, are also sitting next to Sarutobi!
From the looks of them, they clearly regard this knockout round as the best opportunity to steal information from other ninja villages. They are using this opportunity to openly observe the battles of geniuses in each ninja village to roughly judge the strength of this ninja village...
Only these immortals who can sacrifice everything for Konoha can do this... but are extremely effective!
After just a few glances, Jun Tianlin had a rough idea of Sarutobi's thoughts. However, given the current situation, even if Jun Tianlin knew the truth, he could only follow Sarutobi's arrangements and continue taking the exam...
After all, as long as Jun Tianlin doesn't want to expose his identity, he must endure the arrangements of this old guy Sarutobi, because... Orochimaru's new body---Shisui Uchiha has not yet been obtained. At such a critical moment, how can Jun Tianlin be allowed to be negligent?
Thinking of this, Jun Tianlin could only sigh helplessly, secretly praying in his heart that Orochimaru would come to Konoha quickly and snatch Shisui Uchiha's body this morning. This is the right way!
Just when Jun Tianlin was still thinking wildly, Sarutobi, who was sitting on the highest platform, suddenly stood up, stretched his arms, looked at everyone in the training field below, and said loudly,
"Okay, now all of you have signed a life and death agreement, agreeing to live and die in the jounin exam, and each of you has received a different number plate in your hands...
I would like to announce again that this jounin exam has officially begun!
Now I will announce the rules for the first knockout round, because the numbers on the number plates in your hands are all different, so No. 1 will challenge the last number, and No. 2 will pick the last number... and so on. After winning the knockout round, each person will be qualified to take the Forest of Death exam in the second level.
Okay, I've finished my words, now it's time for you young people!"
After saying that, Sarutobi smiled heartily again, sat down slowly, took a puff from his pipe, and looked at the people below with interest.
