Red sand dust

Chapter 32 Over-limit Investigation



There were a total of 153 Genin participating in the Joint Chuunin Exam this time. Suna Ninja sent ten teams, which was considered a satisfactory number.

There are 72 genin in Konohagakure taking the chunin exam, more than twice as many as Suna ninja, showing the strength of the largest ninja village in the ninja world.

The rest, such as the Rain Ninja Village, the Grass Ninja Village and the Taki Ninja Village, sent 21, 15 and 12 people respectively. These three villages are the most important forces in the buffer zone of the Country of Fire, the Country of Wind and the Country of Earth.

The Oto Ninja Village, which had just joined the alliance, sent out a small team as a token, but almost no one took the newly established village to heart.

Except for the Taki Ninja Village, which has nothing to do with it, and the Oto Ninja Village, which has a secret alliance, the relationship between Suna Ninja and other ninja villages is not very good. Konoha also takes great pains to reconcile the relationship between the many unruly allies.

The strongest Sand Ninja occupied the best hotel alone, and other villages were spread out to avoid causing trouble after the meeting.

As the scheduled exam date approaches, the somewhat impetuous genin candidates gradually calm down and make final preparations.

Qian was grinding the secret medicine and checking the bottles and jars in the ninja bag; Daimaru sorted the pile of finished and semi-finished materials on the table in front of him, carefully polishing them with files and sandpaper.

Standing by the window, Nighteye gathered chakra in his eyes, his pupils expanded and contracted from time to time, adjusting the focus, observing all genin who might become opponents.

"Yame, that's it. It's about to start. Don't waste chakra."

After hearing Daimaru's instructions, Nighteye's eyes returned to normal and he shook his head regretfully:

"The time is still too short, and some people's information is still not detailed enough."

"It's good enough. Your eyes may come in handy during the Chunin Exams."

Although its ability to support combat is far inferior to eye skills such as Sharingan and Byakugan, Nighteye's eyes can even exceed the detection range of Aburame Shino's parasites in terms of ultra-long-distance observation. This is Awesome.

If the environment permits, Night Eye can relay reflections of small water droplets suspended in the air and observe movements dozens of kilometers away. In theory, as long as the location is correct, the entire Deep Forest of Death is under its observation.

Even without special abilities such as copying, imitation, dynamic observation, and seeing through chakra, it is still very exciting.

In comparison, Qian's overall strength is stronger, but he does not have such outstanding specialties as Yeme.

“Check it again, take a break, grab lunch, and off you go!”

The deadline for Konoha Genin exams is three o'clock in the afternoon. Other villages must arrive at one o'clock in advance to avoid wasting time in confirming qualifications.

"Finally, remember what I said, in the team competition, no matter what you encounter, don't act rashly, just listen to my command!"

Daimaru said solemnly,

"Don't overestimate the candidates present. If we encounter difficulties that we can't solve, others probably can't solve them either. We don't need to be the best, as long as we perform better than most of our competitors."

"knew!"

Qian collected the secret medicine and said with a smile,

“I’ve finally waited for this day, I can’t wait!”

Yemu rubbed his sour eyes and said casually:

"In the past few days, I have seen a lot of genin from other villages, and I feel that many of them are nothing more than this..."

There are still some powerful guys. Looking at them from a distance, the aura they exude makes people feel fearful.

"Hyuuga Neji, who you made me pay special attention to, is indeed very powerful. Among the genin, Gaara is the only one who feels more terrifying than him. Rock Lee, who has very thick eyebrows, looks a bit like Murasaki. Their weaknesses are also similar. There are too many straight-line attacks. Not enough change…”

"Just have a rough idea."

Daimaru nodded.

Before Uchiha Sasuke received special training from Hatake Kakashi and learned Chidori, he was not a match for Hyuga Neji. Uzumaki Naruto was almost the same. Without Jiraiya's guidance, he was just a fool who could use the shadow clone technique. Husband, it’s nothing to worry about.

Rock Lee's Eight Gate Dungeon has been opened to the fifth gate. At the genin level, almost no one can withstand his full blow.

Hyuga Neji and Rock Lee are obviously superior in terms of physical strength, and the last thing Daimaru wants to face is them.

Uchiha Sasuke, who was cursed in the forest of death, was not in good condition, but Daimaru was not afraid.

The remaining new genin were obviously inferior. Targeted arrangements had been made, and Daimaru felt that his chances of winning were not small.

Dawan, who is well aware of it, is already prepared. The rest depends on whether his luck is as bad as before.

"Daimaru, why didn't you ask Yami to collect information on other Suna ninjas? They must be our competitors too!"

Qian, who had been confused for several days, finally expressed his problem.

Daimaru smiled:

"No need, you will know when the time comes."

Every time the Chuunin Joint Examination was held, either the Konoha Village performed a one-man show, or the Suna Ninja and the Konoha Ninja competed. The other Ninja Villages were just passers-by who accompanied the prince to study.

This year's focus is on the last newcomer, Hinata Neji, this year's newcomer, Uchiha Sasuke, and the three children of the Kazekage Yondaime family.

The nobles who came here to watch the Chunin Exams were not interested in the inexplicable children's fights. The rise and fall of the wealthy families was what they were interested in.

The ultimate purpose of the Joint Chunin Examination is not to select any Chunin, but to demonstrate strength to the major financial clients in order to obtain more commissioned tasks.

There are also particularities in which year the joint chuunin exams are held. When Konoha Village has a talent explosion, it is appropriate to invite allies to come and trade with each other.

"You are the temporary captain, just think clearly!"

Qian breathed a sigh of relief,

"I thought you subconsciously missed it because of Temari."

"How could it be? I am not a person who neglects public affairs for personal reasons."

Daimaru had already figured it out. Compared with attacking Nara Shikamaru, defeating a stronger person, or even defeating Temari, might be more popular.

"You seem more confident than before!"

"Is it that obvious?"

Daimaru touched his chin, which was about to grow a stubble.

Qian smiled and said nothing, Ye Mu sighed:

"Daimaru, sometimes I feel strange. You don't seem to care much about the identities of Kankuro and Temari, and you get to know them casually. Temari and I have known each other for a long time, but we still rarely get to talk..."

Qian, who has been friends with Temari for many years, still understands a little bit:

"Being thick-skinned can be considered an advantage. It's better than being pretentious and arty, appearing to be polite but actually being hypocritical and shallow.

Temari and Kankuro hardly have any friends in the village. Temari was a little better. Kankuro only occasionally interacted with Daimaru and just stayed in the room playing with those puppets! If not for this, Daimaru, it might be more difficult for you to get close to Temari..."
