Chapter 353: Teaching in Konoha, the System Says I'm Tsunade's Student, Chapter 213
Kitazawa nodded and said.
Time passed slowly, and the second round also came to an end.
"I now announce the list of students entering the third round."
Iruka Umino said, "Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, Shino Aburame, Yakumo Kurama, Hinata Hyuga, and Shikamaru Nara."
Kitazawa found that the third-round list was almost exactly the same as the last final exam.
Only Ino Yamanaka was replaced by Yakumo Kurama.
Sakura Haruno and Kiba Inuzuka were not selected for the third round because they didn't perform well.
"It seems the third round is the most exciting."
Tsunade couldn't help but say after hearing this familiar list.
It can be said that the surnames of these six people are quite famous in the Hidden Leaf Village.
"Kitazawa, there are simply too many geniuses in your class."
Shizune said with emotion.
Counting from the establishment of the ninja school, the number of geniuses in Class 1-A could rank in the top three.
"This shows that our Hidden Leaf Village is thriving."
Kitazawa smiled and said.
Who let Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha be the male leads in the original work?
Being in the same grade as the protagonists, naturally, there are many supporting characters with names.
Of course, a more reasonable explanation is that there is a baby boom after every Ninja World War.
Naruto Uzumaki and the others were all born after the Third Ninja World War.
"Please have the students entering the third round come up to draw lots."
After the break, Iruka Umino brought out a lottery box again.
"I'll go first!"
Naruto Uzumaki said excitedly, "I hope I can draw Sasuke!"
Although Yakumo Kurama's genjutsu looked more powerful than Sasuke Uchiha's, in his mind, his lifelong enemy hadn't changed.
And they had an agreement at the beginning of the school year to have a youthful duel in the first monthly exam.
Sasuke Uchiha was quite calm.
The only thing he felt tricky about now was Yakumo Kurama.
But with the Sharingan, plus his taijutsu and Fire Style being superior, he still had a high chance of winning.
"I'm number two!"
Naruto Uzumaki said happily after drawing.
"Number one."
Sasuke Uchiha took a look and said, "My opponent is not Itachi."
"Huh?"
Naruto Uzumaki couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
"I... I am number one."
Hinata Hyuga looked at the number in her hand, her heart tightening.
She didn't expect that she would really become Sasuke Uchiha's opponent.
Ino Yamanaka, Shino Aburame, and others subconsciously looked at her.
Their first reaction was that Hinata Hyuga was unlucky.
The reason was that Sasuke Uchiha had defeated Neji Hyuga not long ago.
Although Hinata Hyuga had also defeated Neji Hyuga, it seemed the gap between them wasn't big.
"Hinata?"
Sasuke Uchiha felt certain in his heart.
He also felt he would win.
He just needed to defeat Hinata Hyuga according to the method of defeating Neji Hyuga.
"Who is number two?"
Naruto Uzumaki asked curiously.
"It's me."
Yakumo Kurama smiled gently and said, "Naruto, please go easy on me."
"Although Itachi are very strong, the final winner will definitely be me!"
Naruto Uzumaki clenched his fists and said.
Although he didn't like genjutsu, fortunately, he had a way to break it, which was the Shadow Clone Jutsu.
"Then my opponent is Shikamaru."
Shino Aburame adjusted his glasses and said.
"Itachi don't have to fight; I admit defeat."
Shikamaru Nara said without hesitation.
They had already fought once in the second round; doing it again, the result wouldn't change.
Besides, he had already broken into the top six, which for him could be considered completing his goal.
In fact, Shikamaru Nara's original plan was to take the initiative to admit defeat regardless of who the opponent was.
"Please have the two students who drew number one take the stage."
Iruka Umino interrupted their chat and said loudly.
Sasuke Uchiha and Hinata Hyuga walked into the field.
The former was calm, the latter nervous, forming a sharp contrast.
Kitazawa's spirit lifted.
Whether he could complete the task depended on whether Hinata Hyuga could defeat Sasuke Uchiha.
In his view, the strength of the two was actually quite close.
It was normal for either to win or lose.
The key point was Genjutsu: Foam and the Leaf Body Flicker Jutsu.
"Itachi can take the initiative to admit defeat."
Sasuke Uchiha said calmly.
He wanted to save some chakra to deal with Naruto Uzumaki and Yakumo Kurama.
Although the actual combat exam only had three rounds, if he proposed a challenge to add a round, Kitazawa wouldn't refuse.
"No."
Hinata Hyuga glanced at Kitazawa and said, "I have a reason I must win."
"Coincidentally, I have one too."
Sasuke Uchiha directly activated his Sharingan and said, "Start."
As his voice fell, he directly performed hand seals.
Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!
Air waves rolled, and a terrifying high temperature appeared.
A huge fireball flew out.
Hinata Hyuga had anticipated this and ran without hesitation.
She followed the side route, bypassed the big fireball, and quickly approached Sasuke Uchiha.
"The speed is about the same as Neji's."
Seeing this, Sasuke Uchiha felt he was more than halfway stable.
He didn't hesitate to throw a handful of shuriken with both hands.
Hinata Hyuga didn't dodge or evade; her Byakugan scanned, and after confirming there were no rubber bands, she directly used Gentle Fist to slap the shuriken away.
Good opportunity!
Hindered by the shuriken, Hinata Hyuga's speed slowed down.
Sasuke Uchiha immediately performed hand seals.
Genjutsu: Foam!
But what dumbfounded him was that Hinata Hyuga directly lowered her head and didn't look at him.
Kitazawa's special training had an effect.
Hinata Hyuga successfully shot down all the shuriken by listening to the wind and identifying the position.
"A bit troublesome."
Seeing this, Sasuke Uchiha immediately gave up Genjutsu: Foam and changed to Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Jutsu.
He now had to find another opportunity to cast genjutsu.
And before that, he couldn't let Hinata Hyuga approach him.
Sasuke Uchiha tilted his head back and spat out a series of small fireballs.
Hinata Hyuga resisted using the Leaf Body Flicker Jutsu and just simply dodged.
Kitazawa had told him that any ninjutsu is most effective the first time because it is unknown.
Hinata Hyuga planned to use the Leaf Body Flicker Jutsu to end the match, so she had to find the right timing.
For a time, the two were in a stalemate.
They were both waiting for an opportunity.
