Escape From Konoha Chapter 399

  Chapter 399 Selection

   "I haven't dealt with Konoha for a while, but I didn't expect that Hokage-sama's attitude has become so tough now."

  Looking at the letter sent from Konoha to the Kingdom of Demons, Shiraishi received it, and after scanning the writing on it, a little surprise appeared on his face.

   "After all, after three years of vital development, and with the full support of the Fire Nation's daimyo, the military power index has begun to rise rapidly. Faced with indifferent threats, naturally they will no longer take it seriously. So, what are you going to do about the joint Chunin exam?"

   Came to the office where Shiraishi was, just when Shiraishi mentioned Konoha, Ayane didn't even want to express her inner thoughts.

  In the past three years, the kingdom of ghosts has been recharging its energy, and Konoha has also not been idle, and has tried every means to develop and strengthen itself.

  War of the Land of Rain, although the morale of Konoha and the Land of Fire was hit, but the foundation of both is still there. As long as the daimyo of the Fire Country can let Konoha let go of his hands and feet, and do not create difficulties for Konoha in terms of funds, the efficiency of Konoha training ninjas will naturally be much higher than before.

  The same goes for the rest of the great powers.

  The traditional five major powers have a history of hundreds of years. They have accumulated so many resources, and it is definitely not something that can be done overnight if they want to overthrow them.

  As the kingdom of ghosts puts more and more pressure on them, the nobles of the big country also pay more attention to the development of Ninja Village than before, instead of sticking to the past practice, constantly forcing Ninja Village to disarm and reduce investment in peacetime.

  From this point of view, the kingdom of ghosts can be regarded as helping these big country ninja villages.

  However, it is estimated that no ninja village will be grateful to the kingdom of ghosts for this kind of patronage.

   "I took it for granted. Konoha's statement is also reasonable. Since it is a joint Chunin exam, it is indeed a bit inappropriate to place all the exam locations in the kingdom of ghosts."

  The kingdom of ghosts has not been strong enough to cover the sky with one hand, so resources must be divided equally, and the identity and status of others cannot be completely ignored.

  Therefore, from this point of view, Konoha is only refuting the inappropriate proposal of the kingdom of ghosts based on reasonable thinking.

   "Generally speaking, in the entire process of the Chunin exam, there will be about three or four phased tests."

  Intelligence collection and analysis, teamwork, personal display, leadership and other abilities are all important parts of assessing whether a jinn can become a chunin.

   Compared with the huge number of junior ninja and middle ninja, the number of upper ninja personnel is too rare, and it is impossible to assign them to every team.

  Many times, the chunin has to be the chunin of the squad leader and command the team.

  Even in the kingdom of ghosts, there are not enough jounin, and they are assigned to each team to guide them.

   Therefore, the Chunin exam is also to select outstanding ninjas, command the squad, and use more efficient actions to complete tasks.

  As long as the personal strength is above the standard line, the criteria for reviewing Chunin actually pay more attention to intelligence analysis and collection, teamwork, and command ability.

   During the execution of the mission, once the captain makes a mistake in command, it will bring a devastating blow to the team. The selection of Chunin should also be cautious.

  Especially in peacetime without tempering, the selection should be stricter.

  The reason why the chunin exam is divided into multiple stages is also to better see the strengths and weaknesses of each ninja, so that the examiner can make a better comprehensive judgment, who can become a chunin, and who needs to continue to hone in the genin stage.

   "Three or four phased exams, according to Konoha's suggestion, it is necessary to turn around the sites of three or four major countries. The period of the Chunin exam will feel much longer."

   Shiraishi thought about it.

   "It happens to be possible to collect information about the rest of the ninja villages, isn't this a multiplicity of actions?"

   "The final stage of the test will be conducted in the country of ghosts, and the previous exams can be handed over to the rest of the ninja villages for arrangement."

   Shiraishi decided to go down.

   "The last exam obviously occupies the largest proportion among all Chunin exams. Will they give up obediently?"

  Ayane doubted this.

   "Yes, as long as they still have the idea of ​​testing the kingdom of ghosts in their minds. At that time, daimyo, high-ranking officials, and wealthy businessmen from all over the ninja world will gather in the kingdom of ghosts. In order to take care of the safety of the scene, the kingdom of ghosts will inevitably send a large number of people to take charge of this matter. Their spies will definitely take this opportunity to become active and collect intelligence on the kingdom of ghosts."

   After hearing this, Ayane also felt that Shiraishi's words made sense.

  Ninja villages in these big countries will never let go of such a good opportunity.

  From this point of view, the last exam can only be conducted in the kingdom of ghosts.

   "Then what are you looking for me for? There is still more than half a year before the Chunin exam. It is impossible to let the security team make arrangements now, right?"

   Ayane asked.

   "No, I'm here to ask you, do you want to be this year's guide Jonin?"

  Shiraishi looked at Ayane and asked with a smile.

   "Guiding Jonin?"

   Ayane looked suspiciously at Shiraishi.

   "Yes, I have decided to let Asuka and Aya form a team to participate in this year's Chunin exam. The third person has also been decided. It is a girl from the Uzumaki clan, and Aya is a student of the same level, and her ability is also very good. I want you to be the guide of the three of them in March."

   Shiraishi put forward his own ideas.

   Ayane lowered her head and thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "No, it's too troublesome. It's okay to teach them occasionally, but if I lead them directly for half a year, how can I have so much free time? Besides, Asuka and Cai don't have anything to learn. Their abilities are already enough to become Chunin. The only difference is experience."

  As for the third person, the girl from the Uzumaki clan that Baishi was talking about.

  Although Ayane didn't know who she was referring to, she must be an extremely outstanding talent to be picked by Shiraishi and put in this team.

  Uchiha, Hinata, Uzumaki, people from the three bloodlines of the family are all together, even without her teaching, it doesn't matter.

   There are actually very few things she can teach. Instead of doing this, she might as well give the opportunity to other Junin.

   "Don't think about it anymore? I remember when you were in Konoha, you didn't experience the feeling of guiding a jounin?"

   "And then turned around and beat up his students on the battlefield?"

   Ayane asked back.

   Shiraishi choked.

  Who Ayane is referring to, of course Shiraishi knows.

   "If you say that I have never been a Jonin guide, aren't you the same?"

   "It's different, because at that time I was tutoring the students in the medical class at the ninja school. Forget it, since you don't have this idea, then I'll pick another jounin to be the guide of the three of them."

  Since Ayane refused to agree to be the 'nanny' of the three of them, Shiraishi had no choice but to find another jonin, and after graduating in March, he led the three of them to carry out the mission.

   "How about letting Obito go?"

   "Then you might as well arrange for Air to serve as Asuka and their guide Jōnin."

  The ability to bring soil is there.

  But teaching ability, in Ayane's eyes, is equated with air. No, it might not even be as good as air, at least air doesn't mess you up.

"…makes sense."

   "Where's Liuli? Didn't she guide Jonin during the Konoha period? Shouldn't she be very experienced in this area?"

   Ayane asked.

   "She's not interested either."

   "Then you can figure it out, I won't bother you, the security team still has work to do."

   After finishing speaking, Ayane simply left.

  Shiraishi leaned back on the chair, let out a long breath, and began to think about who should be the guide of the three Asuka Jonin.

   "—Alright, that's all for today's lesson."

  A young female medical ninja in her twenties put down the handout and said to the students in the class.

  The students sitting in the front seat are all students of the medical ninja experimental class, and they will face the ninja school graduation test in March this year.

  The number of people is about twenty, of which girls account for more than half.

  This experimental class is a special class specially set up in the ninja school for the purpose of training medical ninjas.

  Its development history has been more than twenty years.

  The creator is the well-known Konoha Sannin Tsunade.

   is the idol worshiped by all medical ninjas in Konoha.

   Rather, as long as he was born as a medical ninja, or is about to leave school as a medical ninja, there is no one who does not know Tsunade's name.

"is teacher."

  The students responded obediently.

  Just when the students were about to study by themselves, the female medical ninja seemed to remember something and said, "Speaking of which, there is one more thing I forgot to tell you."

  The students raised their heads and looked at the female medical ninja suspiciously.

   "What's the matter, teacher?"

   "About the graduation exam in March, if you pass it, you will become a ninja, and if you fail, you will return to school to repeat. I just want to remind you that we medical ninjas have special treatment in this regard. For the graduation exam in March, if you want to take it, you can go there. It doesn't matter if you don't take it, it will not affect your final exam results."

   After all, those basic things are not difficult at all for medical ninjas who have the ability to control chakra in detail.

  If you want to become a medical ninja, your chakra control should be generally better than ninjas in other fields.

   And the ninja's basic body skills, illusion and ninjutsu are also very particular about these.

  As long as the medical ninja graduation qualification certificate can be successfully obtained from her, the traditional graduation examination of the ninja school is just formalism in the true sense for the students of this experimental class.

  That's why she said, whether they participate or not, it will not affect their grades, and they will get the ninja quota smoothly.

   And very uniformly, all the students of this year's class have obtained the medical ninja graduation certificate from her.

  Ninja school's ninja graduation exam is meaningless to medical ninjas.

  The students whispered, their faces could not hide their excitement. Although they had heard about it a long time ago, they couldn't hear it from the teacher after all.

   Now that the female medical ninja has confirmed this, it also means that they will be forbearance from now on.

   At that time, you only need to grab the ninja forehead.

   "Although you don't need to take the Ninja graduation exam, the next thing you need to think about is the next step. Are you planning to follow the normal process, integrate into the Ninja team, and go out to perform tasks. Or enter the medical class and do an internship in the hospital department? Or you can take the Anbu exam and become a logistics medical staff in the Anbu, and have a chance to become a regular."

  The female medical ninja gave the students several paths to choose from.

  Medical ninjas learn far more than ordinary ninjas.

   At the beginning, you have to memorize a lot of medical knowledge and memorize that knowledge firmly.

  Afterwards, there will be extremely boring repeated training, which is very exhausting for people's patience.

  Thinking about it carefully, I know how much sweat was involved.

  But also because of this, as long as you get the qualification certificate from the teacher, you will have a wide range of employment opportunities in the village in the future, and the salary will be much better than that of ordinary ninjas.

  The faces of the students were moved.

  Join the ninja team to perform missions.

   Enter the medical sector for further study.

  Choose to join the Anbu Agency, directly under Hokage.

  In addition to the first choice, the second and third choices are all very famous and important departments in Konoha, and they are also the departments that many students yearn for.

  As long as you join these two departments, you will have a safe future, and smart people know how to choose.

   "There is still more than a month before the graduation exam in March. You can think about it yourself, or you can discuss it with your family members. On the day of the graduation exam, you come to me and fill out the report, which will determine where you will work in the future. I hope that each of you will think carefully."

  The expression of the female medical ninja became very serious.

  The students also nodded seriously.

  Although they are still underage, they also know the importance of medical ninjas to the village after years of exposure.

   And it's about one's own future, no one will treat it carelessly in this regard.

   Just then, the bell for the end of get out of class rang.

  The female medical ninja looked at the time and nodded.

   "That's it. After I go back, I will discuss it with my family before making a decision."

   After speaking, she left the classroom with the handouts in her arms.

  Back to my office, there was no one there, and the rest of the teachers left early.

  The medical ninja experimental class starts after three o'clock in the afternoon, sometimes on Saturdays and weekends.

   At this time, get out of class is over, and the rest of the students and teachers have almost left the school.

  For such things, female medical ninjas who work in ninja schools have long been used to it, so they don't take it seriously, pack up the books on the desk, and prepare to leave.

   "Well, teacher... are you there?"

  A rather disturbed voice sounded at the door of the office.

  The female medical ninja turned her head slightly, and saw a girl with cherry-colored long hair and a wide forehead standing at the door of the office.

  The female medical ninja recognized her as a student in her class named Haruno Sakura.

  Although it was in the fourth grade, he suddenly decided to enter the medical ninja experimental class to study, but his learning talent is very good, especially his memory and comprehension ability. It took only half a year to catch up with the years of normal people's study time.

   It was born for the medical ninja industry.

  If the other party enters the medical department for further study after graduation, it will only take about four or five years, and she may have the medical ability to catch up with or even surpass her.

   For the future of this student, the female medical ninja also attaches great importance to it.

   "What's the matter, Haruno-san?"

  The female medical ninja put down the things in her hands and asked in a relaxed tone.

   "Actually, I have some medical ninjutsu knowledge that I don't quite understand..."

  Holding the heavy textbook, Sakura walked in and said softly.

   "That's right, then you come in, I just have some time."

  After thinking about it, there is no extra work tonight, and there is no rush to eat, so the female medical ninja decided to stay and give her tutoring.

"Thank you, teacher."

  Sakura thanked and walked to the female medical ninja, turned to the previous page of the book, and listened to the teaching of the female medical ninja.

  The female medical ninja is also very enthusiastic about Sakura's eagerness to learn.

  She doesn't mind having a few more students like Sakura, but unfortunately, after several years of teaching, it is really too few to find students she doesn't like after class.

  She has seen all kinds of students, most of them are fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, so it is difficult to maintain perseverance.

  She didn't know what kind of perseverance Sakura used to show such a positive learning attitude at this age, but it didn't hinder her appreciation of Sakura.

   An hour passed, and it was completely dark outside.

  What Sakura didn't understand, all kinds of problems were solved under the explanation of the female medical ninja.

   When thanking you and preparing to leave, the female medical ninja suddenly asked:

   "By the way, Haruno, have you considered where you plan to find a job after graduation in March? If you go to the medical department, the teacher will take you by the hand. If you plan to go to the Anbe assessment, the teacher also knows some acquaintances there, and can arrange simple logistical work for you, and slowly settle down to study."

   For novices, the most lacking thing is time.

  The female medical ninja who came from the first novice medical ninja has a very deep experience in this aspect.

  The same is true for a student like Sakura who has the talent of a medical ninja, lacking the accumulation of time.

  Although Sakura is already quite good as a medical ninja among the student groups, and her grades are among the best, but compared to the real medical ninjas, she is still too immature now.

  She tried her best to avoid some detours for Sakura.

   "Teacher, I have already decided to enter the ninja team to perform tasks according to the normal procedure."

   After being taken aback for a moment, Sakura quickly gave her own answer.

   And this answer somewhat surprised the female medical ninja.

   Carry out the mission of the ninja team?

  Although she gave the students three paths to choose from, the first path, entering the ninja squad to perform tasks, in her opinion, is not a wise move.

  In contrast, entering the medical department and dark institutions, the future is brighter and broader than the first path.

   "Have you really thought about it, Haruno-san? This is related to your future. I actually hope that you will enter the medical department for further study, and Anbu institutions can also choose."

  The female medical ninja said seriously.

   "Yes, teacher, I have already decided."

  Sakura nodded firmly, no timidity in her eyes.

   Seemingly aware of Sakura's determination, the female medical ninja had no choice but to sigh.

   Really, why choose the path that is most unsuitable for you?

   It's not that it's bad, it's that the timing is wrong.

  She hopes that Sakura will continue her studies in the future, and wait until she has achieved certain results before going to the task team to hone her skills.

   "Since you have already made up your mind, I won't say anything more, teacher. I hope you accept this book. If you have time, you should study it. If you don't understand something, you can come to the school to ask the teacher for advice at any time."

  The female medical ninja took out a thick book from the drawer and put it in Sakura's hand.

"This is…"

   "It can be regarded as an advanced version of the basic medical ninjutsu course you are studying now. Next, you should take a good look at this book. It will be of great help to you."

   "I see, teacher."

  Sakura nodded seriously.

   Then he lowered his head and looked at the book, frowning.

  In the position of the editor, I saw familiar words.

  —Tsunate/■■■■

  The name of the editor has still been redacted.

"What's wrong?"

   "It's nothing, I just feel strange. Why did you change the name of the editor?"

  Sakura pointed at the book.

  The female medical ninja was slightly taken aback, and then replied: "The second person who participated in the compilation of this book has left Konoha, and it is considered taboo in the village. Everything about him has been deliberately hidden. It's just that the basic textbooks cannot be changed casually, otherwise, these books will also be blocked by the village."

   Simply put, there is no book more suitable for basic medical ninjutsu education than this.

  If a substitute can be found, these books will not be circulated in ninja schools at all.

   "Leaving Konoha..."

  Sakura knew that if she just went out, there was no need to change her name.

   There is another explanation for leaving—a defected ninja.

   "Have you really decided, Sakura, to enter the ninja team according to the normal procedure and carry out the mission?"

  After returning home, Sakura told her father Haruno Zhao about her decision.

  But I didn't expect that Haruno Zhao, as a father, would ask such a question, as if he was questioning something.

   This attitude makes Sakura slightly dissatisfied.

  It seems that she also noticed Sakura's dissatisfaction, but Haruno Zhao was not angry, but looked directly at Sakura and said: “Your mother would rather you enter the medical department and join the Ninja Team to perform tasks, which means it's not safe. She doesn't want you to have any accidents before you are fledgling.”

   "But Dad, didn't you support my decision in the past, and now you want to go back on it?"

   Sakura asked.

   "Dad has not regretted it, nor will he veto your decision. But there are some problems that you may not be aware of, but I think as a father, it should be necessary to remind you."

"remind?"

   "You like Sasuke, Dad is very clear. The reason why you study so hard is to get closer to Sasuke. But after graduation, you will be a medical ninja, and the burden on you is not just Sasuke. Compared with these, I hope you do these things for yourself, not for others."

   "For...myself?"

  Sakura looked at Haruno Zhao in confusion.

   "I shouldn't tell you these things. You know the principles of medical ninjas and the heavy responsibilities you have to bear better than me, a layman. Sasuke is only one of your colleagues, not all of them. If pursuing Sasuke can make you happier, then you should pursue it hard. If pursuing the other party will make you feel extremely painful, then choose to give up with dignity."

   Haruno Zhao seemed to have seen through all the thoughts in Sakura's heart, and said earnestly.

  Sakura looked at her father's serious and solemn face in a daze, and fell silent for a while, not knowing what to say.

"I do not understand."

  Sakura shook her head.

  She didn't know why the topic suddenly became heavy.

  Did I do something wrong?

  However, it wasn't her father Haruno Zhao who made her aim at pursuing Sasuke and choose the path of medical ninja?

  Why does the attitude become a little unclear now?

   "It doesn't matter, you will understand sooner or later. Because you are Haruno Sakura, not Haruno Zhao, and Uchiha Sasuke. After graduating from ninja school, you have to work hard to learn to be yourself."

   Haruno Zhao touched Sakura's head and smiled softly.
