If you encounter an undefeatable enemy, are you willing to join forces with other ninja villages?
There are nine questions in total, and each one is very special.
……
The other four Kage also received the questions, and after seeing them, they understood why the Byakugan clan was used to invigilate the exam.
Because even if you want to cheat on these questions, it is difficult to find the correct answers, and the purpose of the first exam is very simple, which is not to cheat.
The Fifth Hokage seemed to hope that every candidate would face these questions with their true thoughts.
"Does it make sense?"
The Raikage's words were very straightforward. He thought it was too advanced to ask these Genin to think about this issue, and that this was something the Kage should think about.
"Hokage, that's too much."
This is the Tsuchikage's view. The temptation of faith, worldview, and various sensitive issues appeared so openly...
He hated having someone guide the thoughts of the ninjas in his village.
The first exam was tougher than anyone imagined.
"It's meaningful because the future of the world belongs to them, and what it will look like is determined by their own hands.
We are only stronger than most ordinary people in terms of strength, but we may not be as broad-minded and insightful as some young people."
Kakashi was very calm, he liked the questions asked by Teacher Noah.
I’m tired of seeing all that ninja shit. There will be more than just ninjas in the future world.
"What's the answer?"
Mizukage Yagura is a little curious. Is there a standard answer to this kind of question?
"Of course there is no answer. You will pass as long as you write it down. The only catch is that you are not allowed to cheat."
Fengying was amazed by what he saw, and could only say that it was both powerful and insidious.
If you try to find someone with the correct answers in the examination room based on the intelligence you have collected in the past and try to cheat, you will lose regardless of whether you succeed or fail.
It not only fully tests human nature and reverses intelligence, but also collects the true voices of these ninjas.
It's unexpectedly profound.
The Sand Village's desire to hold the next joint Chunin Exam has faded a lot, as they understand that an assessment of this level cannot be conducted for the time being.
Let's see how this year's Genin face this exam.
The total duration of the exam is ninety minutes.
Rizu was so malicious that he placed a huge clock in every examination room, and the ticking sound never stopped from the beginning.
The sense of urgency of time weighs on everyone.
As time goes by, some people start scratching their heads, some start to get restless, and some are fearless.
In all the examination rooms, there were less than 10 people who started writing furiously from the very beginning.
There are two situations here. One is that baits with so-called correct answers are deliberately arranged in the examination room.
Their movements attracted many people who tried to cheat. The inner torment, the threat of the white eyes, the ringing of the clock, and the expectations of the ninja village were all causing the scales in their hearts to continue to tilt.
The other group is the hot-blooded and brainless people like Naruto, and the passionate ninja people like Rock Lee. These two people don't think at all.
They even think that these questions are the most suitable for them and answer them promptly and clearly.
What's even more frightening is that some people who have not collected enough intelligence or are rather stupid have targeted Naruto, and they plan to steal the answer through some means to get high scores.
After all, Naruto is the disciple of the Hokage. If he fails the first exam, the entire Konoha will lose face.
Therefore, it is reasonable to get the answer in advance through some means. It is also a kind of home advantage. Ninjas cannot follow the rules.
There was one, then two, then three, and then more and more people started to answer the questions.
Sakura analyzed the double trap set by the Hokage's secretary in designing these questions, and realized that she could only rely on herself for the outcome of this game, so she began to answer the questions seriously.
Sasuke did not see through this setting, but these questions touched upon his experiences during his last year of traveling in the ninja world.
Seeing Naruto and Sakura writing furiously, he smiled.
I still wasn't determined enough in my heart, so I picked up a pen and started writing.
Smart people, average people, and fools all have their own paths.
And the end of cheaters has come.
There are only two kinds of people who want to cheat in front of the Byakugan.
One is the type who is driven crazy by tremendous pressure and has no choice but to make a desperate attempt at the last moment.
One type is the fool who is confident that he can hide from the detection of Rizu and others through sophisticated means.
Both types of people failed, and the exam came to an end with one cheater after another falling.
"Exam deadline!"
Nearly half of the people have been eliminated, and most of those left are ninjas from the five major countries.
This is the issue of the ninja's origin. Everyone knows that countless people in the outside world are paying attention to this joint Chunin exam, and even the Kages of various villages are here.
More people are mentally unbalanced under this kind of pressure.
Ninjas from big countries face greater pressure, but they are also more able to withstand pressure.
They are looking forward to the last level! The tenth question in the intelligence!
I don't know why I can get all the information, but the importance of the last question...
"Now proceed to question 10."
As expected, the remaining ninjas were delighted.
I am ready to face the test of human nature.
Rizu felt extremely nervous when he looked at the tenth question that had just been delivered to him.
He began to roll his eyes uncontrollably, and he admitted that he was scared.
How could the secretary ask such a question? It's simply... simply... it's trying to kill me.
"Ahem, Hizashi, come here."
Daily difference???
Chapter 137 Putting Shadow on the Scales
You're the one showing off all over the place, and now you're pushing me out?
"You have a better relationship with Hokage-sama, so you are more suitable to announce the last question."
Oh my god... I want to see what kind of question can scare big brother, humph!
After taking it...Brother, you want me to die!
Hiashi felt extremely complicated, but looking at the curious eyes below, he finally said it out loud, "At worst... At worst I can just take on more missions out of the village."
"Ahem, as we all know, the reason for the change in the Konoha Hokage Building was that the Fifth Hokage... was dissatisfied with the Sandaime's political group controlling the Konoha government but making no achievements, and privately carried out illegal human experiments, corruption... distorted the will of fire... and finally..."
The ninjas below, especially the ninjas from Konoha, were terrified. What was Hiashi Jonin talking about? !
Is this something you can say?! And during the Joint Chunin Exam!
These problems will inevitably spread throughout the ninja world after the exam, and Konoha will become a laughing stock.
Hiashi felt the gazes from below and felt extremely flustered, but an order was an order.
"Quiet! This is the tenth question from the Hokage Building! Everyone listen carefully! I won't repeat it a second time."
After seeing everyone quiet down, Hizashi finally read the question.
"If there is a conflict between the path of the shadow and the path of the people, your choice!"
Quiet, the whole place is quiet.
Not only is it quiet here, the room where the five Kage are is also unusually quiet.
When Hiashi started reading the tenth question, everyone was shocked.
They didn't understand why the Hokage would do such a thing.
Even though Konoha is thriving now, even though the village is thriving after order was restored.
But the armed coup will always be a thorn in Konoha's history.
"Hokage, you're too young!"
The Tsuchikage was furious, and he was angry at the Hokage's disgrace.
Although the relationship between the two villages is hostile, their identities belong to the same class, that is, the shadow of one village.
Why was Kakashi disliked by the Four Village Kages and the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations when he came to power?
Because he set a very bad precedent by seizing supreme power through force.
It also hurt the sanctity of the Kage and the Daimyo.
Let people know that those in power can also make mistakes and may be ousted from office.
Countless people who originally regarded movies as their faith suddenly had different choices. This is an act that harms class interests.
Later, after Kakashi came to power, except for Sarutobi Hiruzen who was still tirelessly mentioning the coup in the Hokage Building, the other four Kages almost stopped joining in.
Because the fifth generation has already secured his position, that is, people of the same class.
How unseemly it is to bring up the past now.
The Raikage was also annoyed.
"Kakashi, how can the Kage and the villagers go in opposite directions? This multiple choice question is a bit too much for a ninja."
It's indeed excessive. It takes great courage for someone to express his or her choice under the attention of the entire ninja world.
Because they all know what the correct answer to this question is, but they can't say it out loud.
Ninjas...are tools.
Fengying remained silent, expressing his objection to this question.
Water Shadow...
"That question Naruto makes a lot of sense. I'm looking forward to what kind of answer the Kirigakure ninja will give."
The candidates in the examination room made their choices within a limited time.
"I abstain."
"I abstain."
"I choose to follow the shadow."
With one choice after another, those who chose to abstain were asked to leave, and the number of people remaining in the venue gradually decreased.
The power of the tenth question was indeed great, and this time more of the people who left were great country ninjas, which restored the balance of the candidates.
The ninjas from the small country knew that they would win as long as they entered the next round, so they chose to follow the shadow or the village chief without hesitation.
But the ninjas of a big country have to consider a lot more.
Ordinary people who are mostly on the scale are the right answer to this question, but choosing this means betraying the Kage and may be sentenced to death before they even have time to wait. Even if they are successfully promoted to a Chunin, their future will be bleak or they may die a violent death.
Following the shadow would damage the village's image. After all, in the current propaganda, everyone who follows the Akatsuki organization claims to be responsible for protecting ordinary people.
So giving up is the simplest option, even the ninjas of Konoha did so.
When the number of people dropped sharply, it was finally time...
"Uzumaki Naruto, your choice."
Everyone inside and outside the venue looked at the yellow-haired boy whose brain was blank.
Naruto could feel the malice around him drowning him like a tide.
There was also Sakura's worried look, Sasuke's angry look, and the expectant looks of the other Konoha people. Breathing... was difficult.
