Beyond Fate, the Chunin Ninja Exams

After staying in the White Snake Sage's palace for about ten minutes, Miya turned and left.

"Susu, right!"

On the throne, the White Snake Sage looked at Susu in front of him and said...

"Yes, yes, White Snake Sage."

"From now on, stay close to him! It will be very beneficial for your future."

The White Snake Sage's gaze shifted to the palace gates, and she seemed to see the figure of Miya in her eyes, feeling a surge of emotion.

"Those who cannot even fathom fate! Will they help me fulfill my millennia-old wish?"

Susu, standing before the White Snake Sage, lowered her snake head once more and responded:

"I understand, I will follow Lord Miya's instructions carefully."

In the Konohagakure's office in Hokage.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had prepared extensively for the Chunin Ninja Exams, is now very angry.

The reason is that they haven't seen any sign of Miya yet.

Including Orochimaru, a group of Konoha stood Jonin in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

With a serious expression, Hiruzen Sarutobi arranged all the tasks and then Jonin the Jonin before him:

"The Chunin Ninja Exams are about to begin, so go and get ready!"

"Yes."

The group of Jonin responded.

"Go! Orochimaru, stay here."

After the group of Jonin left, only Hiruzen Sarutobi and Orochimaru remained in the office. Hiruzen Sarutobi, craving a cigarette, took a satisfying puff.

"Orochimaru, where is Miya now? Has he forgotten about the Chunin Ninja Exams that are being held today?"

Orochimaru gave a wicked smile, his upturned lips conveying a calm demeanor.

"Miya has already left Ryūchi Cave and should be arriving at the examination hall soon."

Looking directly at Orochimaru, Hiruzen Sarutobi said:

"If he can't make it, you'll take the Chunin Ninja Exams his place."

In an instant, Orochimaru's snake eyes widened, and he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with a hint of disbelief.

Orochimaru was speechless at this audacious move.

Having just returned to Konoha from Miya Ryūchi Cave, Miyako immediately headed towards the Konoha Ninja Academy, where the first examination hall for today's Chunin Ninja Exams was located.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh--

Miya was incredibly fast; his figure flashed by in an instant. He arrived outside the Ninja Academy just before the gates were about to close, preventing anyone from freely entering or leaving before the first Chunin Ninja Exams ended.

At this time, the most talked-about topic among the villagers of Konohagakure was the upcoming Chunin Ninja Exams.

In the past few days, they have encountered quite a few ninjas from other villages.

Among them were ninjas from Sunagakure who had signed a peace treaty with Konoha, ninjas from Demigod of the Ninja World Hanzō the ninja Amegakure, ninjas from Kusagakure who were usually close to Konoha, as well as Waterfall Ninja from Takigakure and ninjas from the Land of Snow.

The above five are the ninja villages invited by Konoha. Together with Konoha, which hosted the Chunin Ninja Exams, they form the Six Villages Joint Exam.

More than two hundred examinees, all Genin selected from various ninja villages, gathered in the examination hall of the Ninja Academy.

Miya arrived late.

At the same time, when some Anbu ninjas saw Miya appear at the Ninja Academy, they immediately turned around and rushed towards the Hokage Building.

"My Lord Third, Miya Hanama has appeared at the examination hall."

Upon hearing the report from the Anbu Ninja, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, you can go now!"

"Yes."

Hiruzen Sarutobi his hand, and the Anbu Ninja left in response.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Orochimaru again and said:

Orochimaru, you go and prepare too!

Without a reply, Orochimaru simply nodded, then turned and left the Hokage Building.

He also has a mission to complete today.

With little time left before the exam began, Miya was the last of all the candidates to arrive.

Moreover, he had no teammates.

That's right, in this Chunin Ninja Exams, Miya was the only candidate who was in a one-on-one team.

It wasn't that Miya didn't want him, but rather that after graduation, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't assign him a squad.

It wasn't that Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't want to arrange two temporary teammates for Miya to participate in the Chunin Ninja Exams, but rather that Miya wasn't in Konoha at all these days, so he couldn't arrange them.

Furthermore, considering Miya's strength, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that the Chunin Ninja Exams would be no challenge for Miya at all, so he didn't assign Miya any temporary teammates.

One person, one team, that's fine too.

Isn't that right?

"Konoha, what a comfortable environment!"

Pakura, from Sunagakure, propped her cheek on one hand, her gaze sweeping across the entire examination hall, silently feeling a sense of envy that she couldn't quite express.

Compared to the environment of Sunagakure, Konoha, with its favorable climate year-round, completely outclasses Konoha, which is situated amidst the yellow Sunagakure.

This is determined by the country's geographical environment and climate, and is not a natural environment that can be changed by humans.

The entire Land of Wind is mostly desert, so how could the geographical environment of Sunagakure be good?

With scarce supplies, precious water resources, and frequent sandstorms, Sunagakure, though not exactly in dire straits, is the most difficult of the Five Great Shinobi Villages in terms of daily life, even though some smaller ninja villages have better conditions.

"Pakura, look!"

"Those are ninjas from the Konoha Hyuga Clan. Their Byakugan is the best scout on the battlefield."

Sitting to Pakura's right, a Sunagakure named Sato Genin a Konoha genin with cataract-like eyes and white Konoha Genin in a low voice.

Pakura and Gansanji, another Genin Sunagakure sitting to her left, both looked in the direction Sato was pointing.

"Is that the Byakugan? One of Konoha's two great Dōjutsu."

The burly Gansan squinted and said in a low voice.

Pakura is undoubtedly the strongest ninja among the Genin sent by Sunagakure to participate in the Chunin Ninja Exams.

At the same time, the composition of her team was also very reasonable.

Sato is a rare sensory ninja in Sunagakure and even the entire Shinobi World. He excels at gathering and analyzing intelligence and Earth Release Ninjutsu, serving as the "eyes" of the team.

Gansanji is a ninja skilled in defensive Earth Release Ninjutsu and close combat. With the enhancement of Earth Release Ninjutsu, his close combat ability is no weaker than that of an average Chunin.

He can protect Sato well when the battle takes place.

As for Pakura, her Scorch Release bloodline technique makes her combat power rival that of Elite Chunin, and even Jonin would be in danger of death if they were hit by it.

Pakura's Scorch Release combined with her background in close combat makes her a nemesis of Taijutsu ninjas, and even ordinary Water Release ninjas can't do anything about her.

The temperature of the Scorch Release heat is not something that ordinary water can lower.

"What about the other clan with the Dōjutsu, the Uchiha Clan?"

After spotting the Hyuga Clan ninjas, Gansanji looked around, trying to find the Uchiha Clan ninjas.
