"You've still got a lot to learn, but don't worry, your big brother will get you one in the future!"

Sasuke's eyes lit up.

"Really! Didn't you say this thing could only be used by you, big brother?"

Uchiha Sora chuckled, looking mysterious.

"Nonsense, I invented the thing; who can use it is entirely up to me!"

Sasuke suddenly realized the truth, his young heart receiving quite a shock!

"Alright, how did it go learning from Kakashi today?"

Uchiha Sora grinned, his face full of anticipation.

Sasuke immediately perked up, just like an elementary school student showing off his homework to his parents.

He quickly held out his right hand, and as his chakra converged, streaks of lightning appeared, emitting a sound like the chirping of birds!

"This is the Chidori that Kakashi taught me, also known as Chidori!"

Sasuke gestured with it in front of Uchiha Sora.

Uchiha Sora instantly activated his Sharingan, unceremoniously copying the technique.

With the support of the Three Tomoe, any ninjutsu was like an open book before Uchiha Sora.

He could copy it with ease.

Soon, lightning also began to coil around Uchiha Sora's right hand.

"Big brother, you... what level are your eyes at?"

Sasuke felt a pang of envy.

He had wanted to show off, but instead, his big brother had learned it on the spot.

Uchiha Sora smiled smugly.

"Three Tomoe. Still, Kakashi is quite good; this must be his signature move, Chidori, right?"

Sasuke nodded excitedly again.

"Yeah!"

"With this, I'm even more confident about the Chunin Exams. I reckon I'll be promoted for sure."

Uchiha Sora nodded.

But inwardly, he gave a bitter smile.

Promotion?

Promotion, my foot!

By then, the whole exam will be gone, and the Hokage will have been killed by that guy.

And he's talking about promotion.

Still, Uchiha Sora was pleased that Sasuke was getting stronger.

After all, he would be a powerful ally later on.

Uchiha Sora had always understood that if he could pull his own weight and the system was helpful, that would be fine.

It was obviously better to become strong on his own.

However, the Naruto World would soon be filled with overpowered characters, and if he couldn't keep up, he would have to cling to Sasuke's coattails.

Just as he was thinking this, bells began to chime throughout the village.

Sasuke looked even more excited.

"Big brother, it's time! The Chunin Exams start this morning!"

Uchiha Sora realized it too; counting the time, half a month had already passed.

During this period, the village had held meetings to briefly explain the key points of the exam.

It was a simple elimination system.

When the time came, the ninjas who passed the tests would engage in two-on-two battles.

The winners would advance to the next round, and eventually, a small number of ninjas would be selected to become Chunin.

But Uchiha Sora knew that memorizing these rules was useless.

Orochimaru would come sooner or later anyway.

His mission was to kill Orochimaru!

"Let's go! The exam is starting. You go find your friends, and I'll go find my teammates."

With that, Uchiha Sora and Sasuke parted ways.

Soon, Rock Lee found him first.

"My best friend! Look at all the people coming and going on the road; it must be a mix of the good and the bad. I'm so looking forward to seeing who I'll get to fight!"

Uchiha Sora smiled.

"It's nothing. We've all seen your strength; no matter who you draw, we're basically guaranteed a win!"

Rock Lee chuckled and gave Uchiha Sora a thumbs-up.

"My best friend is truly a smart man!"

"This time, Guy-sensei already told me that as long as I don't run into Gaara, I'm sure to win!"

Uchiha Sora grumbled inwardly.

You might not run into him, but I'll definitely encounter him later.

Of course, that's not certain.

If Naruto is reliable enough, according to the original plot, Naruto can also beat Gaara.

The key is that Orochimaru's target is me, and Sasuke hasn't been branded with the Cursed Seal.

In this situation, Orochimaru definitely won't give up.

Therefore, I must be prepared for a direct confrontation.

Just as he was thinking this, Hinata trotted over to Uchiha Sora's side from not far away.

Before she even stood still, she said breathlessly, "Sora! I've learned a new skill; I can perform Rotation now!"

Hinata was very excited; much like Sasuke, she seemed to view Uchiha Sora as a parental figure.

Uchiha Sora's eyes widened.

What's going on?

Rotation!

According to the original story, Hinata shouldn't be able to learn this yet.

In the original timeline, it was because of the difference this move made that she lost to her cousin, Neji.

How did she suddenly learn it now?

Could it be that my interference caused Hinata to work harder?

For a moment, Uchiha Sora felt that even though he hadn't influenced things too much, the plot had changed to some degree.

This only increased Uchiha Sora's sense of urgency.

He understood that if he didn't hurry up and get stronger, everything would become very troublesome once the subsequent plot went beyond his control.

"Not bad! It seems you've all made progress. We're practically guaranteed success in this exam!"

After Uchiha Sora said this with a smile, their group arrived near the central plaza.

Konoha Village occupied a vast area, as it was the strongest village in the ninja world.

First, it was divided into residential areas and the plaza section.

The massive plaza before them was only used when Konoha Village held events or hosted competitions.

If converted to size, it was basically comparable to dozens of soccer fields put together.

That wasn't even counting the surrounding spectator stands.

Right now, it was packed with people; both the exam participants and the spectators had formed long lines.

They were currently entering only after having their identities verified.

"Next... wait a moment! If you're participating in the competition, you can use the back entrance. Are you three from Konoha Village?"

The person standing at the gate was actually Iruka, who recognized Uchiha Sora and the others at a glance.

"It's me!"

Uchiha Sora waved his hand.

Iruka was, for all intents and purposes, Uchiha Sora's homeroom teacher.

"It's actually you! Go ahead, there's a back entrance on the left. I believe you'll definitely pass this time!"

Uchiha Sora nodded; he had a fairly good impression of the people in the village.

At this moment, he led his team into the plaza.

Looking around, the spectator stands were already filled with people.

Among them were the Hokage at the very top of the stands, as well as the people from Sunagakure.

Others might not know it, but in Uchiha Sora's eyes, that bald man from Sunagakure was undoubtedly the root of the danger this time.

At this moment, Uchiha Sora was also searching the crowd for traces of Orochimaru.

This guy really knows how to hide... Forget it, it's fine if I can't find him. Anyway, when they charge out later, the strong fighters of Konoha Village will be the ones to hold them off first.

Uchiha Sora wasn't panicked; if the sky fell, the tall ones would be there to hold it up.

At this time, the three of them found the waiting room for the contestants.

They waited there for a while, and soon the venue was teeming with people.
