At this time, a Jonin who was acting as the referee looked towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, signaling that the assessment could begin.
He immediately spoke.
"This time it will be a graduation assessment test conducted by Lord Orochimaru on Uchiha Chiba."
"The rules are simple."
"Within the boundaries of the venue at this moment, Uchiha Chiba, if you persist in front of Lord Orochimaru for five minutes, you will be considered a winner."
"During this period, surrendering, losing combat effectiveness, and being knocked away within the range... are all considered defeats!"
Very simple rules.
Five minutes, Chiba only needs to persist for five minutes.
However, these five minutes are the five minutes of Konoha Sannin Orochimaru.
Orochimaru If he was serious, a jounin probably wouldn't be able to stand in front of him for a minute.
However, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Chiba to hold on for five minutes.
Even the jounin who was the referee found it impossible.
At this moment, Orochimaru and Chiba were approaching each other under the leadership of the referee.
Then, the two slowly raised their hands and made [Seal of Confrontation]!
Both sides must perform [Seal of Confrontation] before the battle, which symbolizes half of the meaning of [activating ninjutsu with both hands Hand Seals], telling the opponent that they are going to fight next, this is [Seal of Confrontation].
After the battle, both sides stretched out their [Seal of Confrontation] and put them together to form [Seal of Reconciliation], symbolizing that they are companions.
This is a necessary process if you want to fight in Konoha.
After both parties put their hands down, the jonin as the referee spoke directly.
"Now, the assessment begins--"
After saying that, the Jonin disappeared directly, leaving the stage to Chiba and Orochimaru.
The assessment has begun.
However, neither Chiba nor Orochimaru moved.
Orochimaru just looked at Chiba calmly, while Chiba was leaning on crutches with both hands.
"Chiba-kun... this day has finally come."
"Yeah, so - do you have any standards for me as the experimental subject?"
"Of course!"
Orochimaru smiled and spoke calmly.
"At this stage, the best genius record recorded by the Konoha Ninja Academy is created by Kakashi Hatake. He graduated at the age of five, became Chunin at the age of six, and became a Jonin at the age of twelve!"
"Furthermore, the fact that he became a Jonin at the age of twelve does not mean that it took him six years to reach that level of strength. When he was six years old, he was definitely not just at the Chunin level."
"Of course, times are also developing. At the same age, even Itachi should surpass Kakashi's record this time."
"However, I still use Kakashi as the standard!"
Saying that, Orochimaru raised his hands.
"Ten times!"
"I will use Six-Year-Old Kakashi ten times the strength to fight you."
"I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do!"
Six-year-old Kakashi is no ordinary Chunin.
If we only rely on strength as the standard, Kakashi might be able to become a Jonin at the age of seven.
At only twelve years old, he can create S-level ninjutsu Chidori.
His talent is no less than any ninja in Konoha.
You know, even Namikaze Minato only created the A-level ninjutsu Rasengan when he was in his twenties.
If it weren't for his father, and the blow Uchiha Obito and Rin Nohara had brought to him.
Kakashi's future achievements are by no means comparable to those in the original work.
Although Sharingan has made Kakashi[Copy Ninja] famous.
However, it is also a burden to Kakashi.
Kakashi without Sharingan is likely to be stronger.
"Really-?"
"In this case... then--Mr. Orochimaru, you have to be careful."
Chiba raised his right hand and slowly placed it on the hilt of his cane sword.
"I don't know how much Kakashi was ten times stronger when he was six years old."
"However, I have always treated you as an all-out attack."
"So, Mr. Orochimaru, you have to be careful."
"Be careful not to be thrown out directly by me."
Orochimaru has a smile on his face.
"In that case... then I'm looking forward to your strength as a test subject."
The moment I finished saying this.
Orochimaru took action.
There are no signs.
In an instant, Hand Seals was completed, and the onlookers didn't even see it clearly.
Orochimaru raised his right hand and released a dense python.
"Hidden Shadow Snake Hands!"
The python with its fangs exposed seems to be ready to tear Chiba into pieces at any time.
Then--
Chiba drew his sword...
Chapter 64
Under the instant action of Orochimaru.
Everyone wants to know how to deal with the attack of Konoha Sannin Orochimaru, the invisible Uchiha Chiba.
The action of Chiba is also very simple.
His right hand gently caressed the hilt of the cane sword, and the thumb of his left hand quietly raised the sword, revealing a murderous light.
Then--
Chiba's knife is out of its sheath.
Obviously everyone's attention is on Chiba.
Obviously everyone is looking at Chiba's hand.
However, at that moment when the sword was drawn, only a few people could see it clearly.
The peak sword-drawing technique, at the moment of drawing the sword, Chiba had already slashed three times.
Accompanied by a flash of cold light.
The python with its fangs exposed was instantly cut into pieces.
Everyone was shocked. Although they didn't know what happened, Chiba easily blocked Orochimaru's first blow.
At the same time, everyone understood the moment he took action.
This invisible Uchiha Clan boy is stronger than all of them imagined...
The first attack was just a feint.
Chiba understands the essence of battle.
The most powerful killing move is always behind a feint.
Sure enough, Orochimaru is here.
From behind the chopped python, Orochimaru suddenly rushed out and jumped up, handing his body over to the sky.
Jumping and staying in the air in front of the enemy is the stupidest thing to do.
Because, Orochimaru does not have any air displacement skills.
Even so, there can only be one result for Orochimaru to do this.
Next, he is about to release a range of ninjutsu.
Blocking the opponent's movement trajectory with range ninjutsu is a basic tactic in combat.
Orochimaru did not use his own Konoha Sannin's powerful strength to crush Chiba.
Instead a regular ninja battle took place.
It's exactly what he said at the beginning.
He will fight Chiba with ten times the strength of Six-Year-Old Kakashi.
Orochimaru, who was stuck in the air, took out a Shuriken from his hand, then instantly aimed at Chiba and threw it out.
And at the moment Shuriken flew out, Hand Seals of Orochimaru was also completed.
"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu~"!"
The next moment.
Shuriken flew out and turned into a puff of white smoke with a bang.
In the white smoke, Shuriken split into two, and the two split into four... In just a blink of an eye, it turned into an overwhelming Shuriken, pouring towards Chiba like a heavy rain.
See this scene.
Everyone outside the venue was dumbfounded.
Is this really the graduation exam for ninja students?
Is this going to kill Uchiha Chiba?
What's even more surprising is that Orochimaru didn't stop there.
He continued Hand Seals with his hands, then took a deep breath and exhaled.
"Wind Release-Great Breakthrough!"
The strong wind blowing was instantly intertwined with the dense Shuriken.
Obviously, Orochimaru used a combination of ninjutsu.
Use Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu to block the area.
Combining it with Wind Release Ninjutsu does not increase the speed of Shuriken. More importantly, it makes the originally traceable trajectory of Shuriken become chaotic.
This combination of ninjutsu is impossible to avoid.
It can only be blocked.
And if you want to block it, you can only choose the range-type shield type defensive ninjutsu.
At this moment, the audience present became nervous.
The combined ninjutsu is released instantly.
Some Chunin who are not surprised enough may be killed instantly.
