As Jiraiya said the astonishing number, everyone's faces showed shocked expressions.
"Ninety-nine percent elimination rate? Lord Jiraiya Isn't this..."
However, before the other party could speak, Jiraiya had already waved his hand and spoke to them in a pretentious manner.
"I know what you want to say. You may think that I have been away from the village for a long time and do not understand these rules, so the requirements for Genin candidates are too strict?
No, in fact, this is what I learned from traveling around Shinobi World. This road to Ninja is too difficult, and only the best of the best can go far. As examiners, we are not there to witness them die, but to make those who are not yet qualified quit before the difficulties."
Perhaps thinking of the untimely deaths of his Disciples, Jiraiya felt a little sad and let out a long sigh.
Then he calmed down and put on a look as lonely as snow. "These Genins who came to participate in Exam, they are going to embark on a road that determines life and death! On the road to becoming stronger, there must be There is blood. At the same time, awareness, patience, strength and luck are all indispensable. Only by setting high standards can most people quit in spite of difficulties! Projects with a high elimination rate are also to avoid too many deaths. This is my consideration..."
"No, Lord Jiraiya you misunderstood, I wanted to say..."
The examiner who had just spoken coughed slightly, adjusted his sunglasses, and then reminded him seriously, "Although the number of candidates participating in Exam this time far exceeds the previous Chunin Ninja Exams, the total number of applicants is actually less than 300... The elimination rate is 99%. By the last stage, the remaining people will not even be able to compete for more than two times."
In an instant, the entire meeting place fell into deathly silence.
Third held his forehead and looked at this stupid Disciple of his own and shook his head. How could he have thought of letting him inherit Hokage Position before?
"Hahahahahahaha." Jiraiya saw the awkward atmosphere and burst out laughing.
"Ah hahaha, hahaha."
There were also many talented examiners who stayed behind, and they immediately laughed in agreement with Jiraiya, and then everyone tacitly skipped the topic.
Naruto in the team was confused for a while and asked in his heart--
[Dad, what are they doing?]
"... This is the world of adults, Naruto."
Minato's voice sounded very helpless.
The world of adults?
Naruto listened to their smileless laughter and scratched his head.
I don't understand, I'm just a child, do I want to laugh along?
Jiraiya laughed for a while, but couldn't stop laughing anymore. He looked at the other person with some embarrassment and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Ebisu, Lord Jiraiya."
Ebisu still answered seriously, and Jiraiya could even see through the pair of sunglasses that there was some respect in the other person's expression, which made him confirm that the other person was not deliberately trying to find trouble with him...
This makes Jiraiya a little depressed.
It seems that he admires himself very much, so why have he set such a huge step down for himself?
"That Ebisu, the ninety-nine percent I just said is just a false reference. It means to raise the standard and increase the difficulty. It does not mean that the content of Exam should be determined according to this indicator."
Jiraiya Hahaha, I had to find a step for myself.
Then he patted Ebisu on the shoulder. "You are a very good guy. Which project are you in charge of?"
"Reporting to Lord Jiraiya, the content of the first test paper Exam was published by the following."
As the theoretical Elite Ninja, Ebisu pushed up his glasses and answered very proudly.
However, the shoulder that was slapped twice just now feels a little painful. Could it be that Lord Jiraiya is hitting himself? As an elite, have I done something wrong?
Hi, how is it possible? It must be Lord Jiraiya's natural power!
When he heard that the test paper was issued by him, Jiraiya's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Is it difficult enough?"
"Following the instructions of the examiner Ibiki, I have used what I have learned throughout my life. Even the most elite Ninja, I am sure of these questions..." Speaking of this, Ebisu's body straightened up, his heartbeat accelerated slightly, and then he firmly spat out the follow-up, "They can't do it."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Jiraiya this time patted the other party's shoulder with admiration and said, "Then let's start the discussion from the first session. The examiner of the first session is...Ibiki. Come out and tell us how your Exam needs us to cooperate with you."
The head of the torture department, Morino Ihiki, who had his hands in his pockets, came out and said, "Okay."
Then Ibiki explained the rules of the first-stage examination room that he was responsible for.
"It's still a bit simple, it needs to be a little more difficult."
After Jiraiya listened, he decisively made a few suggestions, all of which focused on difficult areas.
"Then the assistant examiners should also work harder and find ways to give the candidates some trouble..."
Jiraiya looked at where the assistant examiners were standing, because they were fully involved in the coordination of each examination room.
And after Jiraiya's eyes passed over Naruto, his heart moved--
[It's really similar.]
He recognized Naruto at a glance. After all, it was very easy to identify him in terms of age and appearance.
However, the most important thing at this time is Chunin Ninja Exams in front of us, and we cannot abandon public service for personal reasons.
So Jiraiya just looked at Naruto a few more times, and then said directly, "Exam I will also slightly change the arrangement of the assistant examiners..."
Jiraiya added several changes to the rule system established by Ibiki. Of course, all the changes seemed to be to increase the difficulty. Several of the added items made many assistant examiners speechless.
If I hadn't known it in advance, I might not have been able to pass the assessment in this environment.
This time Chunin Exams, out of nearly three hundred candidates, only ten were left. The assessment standards designed previously must far exceed the limits that ordinary Genin can reach.
It does not mean that only ten people from Exam can be promoted to Chunin at a time.
The main reason why Chunin Ninja Exams has so many Exams and examination rooms is of course to assess the comprehensive abilities of Genins.
In this Exam, the real evaluation of whether a Ninja can be successfully promoted to Chunin is not based on the final outcome, but on the overall outstanding performance of the Exam.
It would be better to say that the showdown between the last ten people was just to demonstrate Shinobi Village's new military force in front of other forces and Three Great Nations's leaders, and to attract future cooperation partners and resource investment for Shinobi Village.
The pre-examination arrangements hosted by Jiraiya did not last particularly long, and everything was arranged smoothly.
Except for the initial oolong and various more difficult operations, Jiraiya still showed his extremely high Ninja quality and the details he considered in all aspects.
In order to avoid suspicion, not only all the team leaders Ninja cannot participate in the planning of Exam, even the auxiliary examiners like Naruto have not been disclosed in advance about the specific content of Exam until today's meeting was officially confirmed.
This also prevents interested people from obtaining relevant rules about Chunin Ninja Exams through them.
"... Okay, let's follow this. Next, except for the examiners in each examination room, everyone else can go back first."
Jiraiya clapped his hands and concluded.
As the assistant examiners left, there were only three examiners and Third Hokage left in the conference room.
"I've finished explaining everything on the surface. Next... Mitarai, your Second Exam Arena is the most important item. Have you arranged it properly?"
Jiraiya changed his expression from just now and asked seriously.
"I will find a way to eliminate all these cuties in my level."
Mitaraishi Anko said confidently, "On the contrary, we should worry about those people lurking among them. Don't worry about those cats and dogs who are not strong enough. Don't let them get eliminated before the end!"
"To take precautions in the bud, now that it has been confirmed that Shisui Uchiha controlled so many Anbu to lurk, and now they have escaped from the village.
It can be inferred that Akatsuki most likely wants to do harm to Konoha. If it is just to collect Tailed Beast, Shisui Uchiha's operation would be too strange. In short, if Akatsuki plans to plot something against the village in the short term, Chunin Ninja Exams is their best chance."
Jiraiya said in a deep voice, "Don't underestimate them. I have also investigated this organization some time ago. This organization has recruited well-known Missing-nin from every village. The strength of its members is far beyond the average Jonin level. Once you are aware of it, you must prevent them from jumping over the wall."
