Chapter 668: The most ideal three-person combat team in the Hidden Cloud Village in the Chunin Exam~

The return journey was particularly depressing.

In total~

This is probably the first defeat encountered by Team 7 since its establishment.

However!

Kakashi did not give too much advice~

In his opinion, if Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura can recover from this incident alone.

They will definitely grow up a lot~

Those things will become their most precious wealth on the road to becoming strong.

…

"Really?"

"Such a thing actually happened!"

Konoha, Hokage Building.

Sarutobi Hiruzen learned everything about the Wave Country mission from Kakashi~

Took a puff of his old cigarette~

He slowly looked at Sasuke and Naruto~

In their opinion, whether it is Sasuke, who is a descendant of Uchiha, or Naruto, who is the heir of the Fourth Kazekage.

The future has a very high ceiling!

As a mentor in the life of countless ninjas in Konoha~

He has the responsibility to point out the way forward for the two~

Sorry, I forgot!

Beside the two of them, there is another one.

"Naruto, Sasuke, you are unwilling to give up, right?"

"If you are unwilling, keep this unwilling heart, and keep getting stronger, stronger... and stronger."

"Then use your own strength to change this cruel reality."

"Yes, Third-generation old man... I will."

"I, Uzumaki Naruto, will definitely become a powerful ninja, like my father... an excellent ninja."

Seeing Naruto's pupils focus again, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded silently.

However~

He didn't say anything more~

Naruto, Sasuke... may have strong qualifications.

But how far can the two of them go in the future?

It still depends on how much they have paid to become stronger.

"Kakashi stays, Naruto, Sasuke... and Sakura, you three retreat first~"

"Kakashi!"

As Naruto and the other two left~

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes focused on Kakashi again.

"Sister Sandaime~"

"Kakashi, do you think those people who appeared in Wave Country are related to Akatsuki, Kara... or Nan Tianmen?"

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's question, Kakashi's expression became serious.

The shocking battle of the Death Falls in Taki Country has brought out countless monsters and demons.

There are many, even the databases of the Root and the Anbu have never recorded them.

Among them~

The most eye-catching are undoubtedly the Akatsuki, Kara, and Nan Tianmen, the three major promoters.

These are all forces with the power to overthrow the country.

"No~"

"It should not be the people of the three major organizations~"

"The style of those people is not like Akatsuki, let alone Kara..."

"As for Nan Tianmen?"

"With the style of the leader of Nan Tianmen, he should not choose to cooperate with a man like Kado."

Thinking carefully for a moment~

Kakashi shook his head and gave his answer.

If it is really Akatsuki and Kara~

Team 7 is probably completely defeated in the Land of Waves, and has no chance to return to Konoha.

"Another unknown and powerful force?"

"What a troubled time!"

While pondering, the wrinkles on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face seemed to increase.

"Okay, thisI will send someone to look into this matter."

"Team 7 should not go out for the near future."

"The village will hold a grand Chunin Exam soon. By then... I am afraid that many young people from ninja villages and forces will participate~"

"Sasuke and Naruto have good talents. Teach them well... Try to get them a good ranking in this Chunin Exam."

"Chunin Exam? "

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen who turned around and sat down, Kakashi's eyes narrowed slightly.

Obviously, during the time when he led Team 7 to go out on a mission.

The village made another major decision that he was not aware of.

The scene that could be called grand by the Third Generation was definitely larger than the scale of the ordinary Chunin Exam.

...

Konoha did not wait too long in the Ninja World~

Just a few days later~

Sarutobi Hiruzen, in the name of Fujiwara Tetsuya, announced to the entire Ninja World that Konoha was about to hold a new round of Chunin Exams.

No limit to ninja villages, forces, or origins~

As long as you can form a three-person team and have a Chunin or above ninja to lead the team.

You can sign up to participate in Konoha's Chunin Exam this time~

Of course~

In addition to the relaxation of conditions~

The most important thing is the reward for this Chunin Exam.

In order to attract the attention of the entire Ninja World~

After Konoha Discussion between Konoha's top management and Fujiwara Tetsuya~

This time, Konoha showed the sincerity that has never been seen in the history of the ninja world.

As long as you enter the third round, you will be qualified to join Konoha!

As long as you enter the top ten~

You are eligible to choose an A-level ninjutsu~

As for the top three, they will have the opportunity to come into contact with Konoha's forbidden techniques and S-level ninjutsu~

Of course~

These ninjutsu are within the range of Konoha's limited selection.

Even so, it is enough to shock the entire ninja world~

…

"Chunin Exam~"

"Even Lightning Style・Raikiri, Water Style・Hard Whirlpool Water Blade... these S-level water style ninjutsu are taken out as rewards."

"What on earth is that guy thinking?"

"Does he really think that the new generation of Konoha's brats can repeat the path he has taken? "

The Land of Lightning, the Valley of Clouds, the Raikage Building.

Ai listened to the message from the Anbu~

There was a hint of doubt in his eyes~

"Maybe it's as you guessed~"

"But, maybe it's bait~"

"Maybe it's a diversion~"

"After all, it's that man~"

Listening to Ai's whispers~

The part-time secretary and think tank, the stunning Mabui, listened to her plump chest and said solemnly.

However, like Ai~

Mabui also attributed Konoha's actions this time to Fujiwara Tetsuya.

"Mabui, activate the village's undercover agents in Konoha, and let them try to find out Konoha's purpose as much as possible."

"Also give orders~"

"Select the twelve strongest Genin from the last two classes of the village~"

"While there is still some time before the Konoha Chunin Exam selection, I will personally train them. "

"I don't believe that Konoha is so lucky~"

"I can't beat that guy~"

"Let us, the younger generations of the Hidden Cloud Village, make me proud~"

"I think that guy's face will be quite interesting when he sees that all the little brats of Konoha are eliminated."

Obviously~

Ai is still upset about the Chunin Exam when she lost to Fujiwara Tetsuya when she was young.

The mind of a girl is ever-changing~

The mind of an old man is the same!

"It's a pity that Atsu and Omoi have been promoted to Chunin~"

"Otherwise, if they and Karui form a combat team, they will definitely win in the end~"
