(Naruto+LotM) Jugo - Father of Devils Chapter 6 6: First Exam

The next two days were a lot of fun for Jugo, but not so much for Kin and Dosu, who were dragged around buying food like walking wallets.

Kin was fine because at least he could eat with them, Dosu had to pay and watch the others eat!

Finally, the day of the exam arrived and the trio quickly reached the first exam location.

Jugo entered calmly, with Dosu and Kin following. He didn't even need to notice the genjutsu hiding the floor. His ntal resistance wasn't even affected. He passed right through, while Dosu and Kin, a little confused, followed.

Finally, when they reached the real third floor, they finally realized it. The duo looked at him in surprise, but neither of them said anything.

Arriving at the correct room, there weren't many people yet, but Gaara and Kabuto's group were already there.

As previously reported, he pretended not to know Kabuto, just like the two behind him. They looked for an empty spot and sat down. Of course, their real seats would be assigned by the instructors.

Jugo wasn't worried about this test either. He clearly didn't know anything, but it didn't matter. He knew how the exam worked, just stay quiet and keep your head down and it would all be over soon.

As for how Dosu and Kin pass, it doesn't matter. He's already made it clear that they shouldn't give up until their lives are at risk, no matter what anyone says.

According to Kabuto, the number of registered examinee teams this year reached 153, almost half of them from Konoha. The Sound Village had the fewest, with only 3 teams, and the second fewest was Taki (Waterfall), with 12 teams.

In any case, no one expected much from the Sound Village; after all, it's a village less than a decade old.

Soon, people continued arriving, but Jugo simply watched calmly, including the arrival of the 12 Leaf genin. The change was that this ti Dosu didn't attack. The main reason was that Kabuto didn't approach him asking for help with his act. Perhaps he thought Jugo would go crazy, so he gave up on it.

Jugo watched calmly as Kabuto perford his presentation. Dosu and Kin didn't speak, in fact, the pair completely followed his example and remained silent.

Seeing Sasuke ask about Lee and Gaara, Jugo shook his head. Gaara himself was standing there listening. He didn't care, but if he did, he could attack.

Gaara is very similar to Jugo. His current power is as good as a jonin, but he lacks a lot of experience and relies heavily on sand. In fact, Gaara is Jugo's favorite type to face. One attacks, the other defends and the stronger one wins.

So he's not afraid of Gaara, even with Shukaku.

In the end, Naruto, idiotic as ever, pointed at them and said he would defeat them all.

Jugo felt Dosu moving slightly, so he placed his hand in front of him, making him calm down.

Jugo didn't care, monts later the examiner arrived.

-Well, what do we have here? A bunch of brats. - The bald man who looked like he'd stepped out of a Matrix crossover smiled at them. - My na is Morino Ibiki, I'm your examiner and from this point on, your worst enemy.

Jugo just looked indifferently. The man did have so aura, but sorry, his own aura is stronger and he doesn't think he'll encounter an aura more malevolent than that of the Tenebrous World.

Jugo switched off his mind as Ibiki gave the introduction.

-... hand in your applications and in return you'll receive a number. The number will determine your seat. - He finished. - We'll begin the written exam as soon as everyone is seated.

Jugo sighed and went to line up with Kin and Dosu.

The group lined up with Kin in front and Dosu in back. She was a woman, after all, so Jugo let her go first.

Kin blushed a little and nodded, feeling happy. Jugo shook his head, wondering how the woman survived in Otogakure with her guard down.

But it wasn't his business, He didn't know much about Otogakure's managent beyond the basic division between mobs and experints.

Kin quickly took his number, as did Jugo and Dosu. Kin stood in the middle, Dosu in the back and Jugo in front.

-Now, let's get the rules. - Ibiki began. - Rule number one, everyone starts with ten points and for each wrong answer, you lose one point. So, if, for example, you get three questions wrong, you'll get seven points.

Jugo always thought this rule was strange. It's basically the glass half full and half empty, isn't it? If he gets seven questions right and three wrong, he'll also get seven points. So is that really relevant?

It seems like another rule to confuse idiots.

-Rule number two, teams will be approved or not based on the results of the three mbers. - As soon as he finished speaking, Jugo heard a dull thud and turned to look, seeing Sakura banging her large forehead on the table.

She raised her head and scread. - Wait! Are you telling the grade is per team?!

-Silence! I have my reasons. Shut up and listen. - Ibiki said. - Rule number three, the guards around the room are there to watch for any kind of cheating. Each cheating observed will deduct 2 points from the total grade.

Ibiki smiled and continued. - I warn you, their eyesight is very good. If they catch you 5 tis, you will be disqualified from the test.

Jugo paused for a mont, thoughtful. So that was the reason for rule one. Of course, it doesn't make much difference, it just makes it more visible. This way, you know you have 10 points and can be deducted. But in the end, he could have simply stated rule three, stating that each cheating subtracts 2 points from your total score and 5 cheatings directly disqualify you.

To be more blunt, it's redundant, but Jugo isn't an interrogator, so he didn't comnt on the man's ideas.

Another point Jugo noticed is that each examiner has a wooden clipboard with paper. This is another strange point. For example, if Examiner A finds Examinee 1 cheating 4 tis and Examiner B finds the sa examinee cheating 3 tis, has he already gone over 5? How can we know if the tis they saw him cheating were different? Even if there is, how will they do it during the test? Is there a Yamanaka connecting their minds? It's possible.

Jugo brushed this aside, in any case, he doesn't intend to cheat to begin with, but he found himself wondering how he would do it.

Technically, he can use his transformation to generate organs, including eyes, but currently his transformation is prohibited unless he wants to lose his mind.

Other than that, he doesn't know any Jutsu.

As a prisoner, he received a lot of information on how to escape from prison, but unfortunately, extracting information during a test isn't sothing that cos with it.

He could even steal information, but that involves using distractions, like breaking a water fountain and flooding a floor or starting a massive fight, things he can't do right now.

So, his best chance is to coordinate with Kin or Dosu, creating a distraction to acquire the information, like going to the bathroom or breaking the chair of the candidate next to him.

Of course, he himself has no interest in doing sothing so problematic, he knows he can pass by simply remaining silent.

Finally, Ibiki continued. - One more thing, if any candidate gets a zero, they will be eliminated, and the entire team will fail.

Jugo could feel Dosu and Kin's eyes on him, they didn't think Jugo, the maniac, would know anything.

They were right, but Jugo only gave a slight "OK" gesture, and the pair felt a little relieved.

Little did they know that Jugo simply planned to write randomly for a while.

The exam soon began and those who understood the hidden rules for cheating quickly began.

Sitting in front, Jugo didn't see any of this, but began writing directly.

"Those who copy answers are idiots, those who copy answers are fools, those who copy answers are ugly, those who copy answers won't get a girlfriend..."

Jugo continued to enjoy writing, unaware that a certain Uchiha noticed his nonstop writing, activated his Sharingan, and began copying with a cheeky grin on his face.

The irony was that only after copying three questions did Sasuke realize sothing was wrong.

He focused purely on copying the movent and not on what he was writing, kanji by kanji, without connecting them to each other, but when he quickly scanned the text, his eyes twitched and he nearly broke the pencil in his hands.

Sasuke's cheeks flushed and he gritted his teeth, filled with rage!

Fuck! He glared at the bastard he was copying with trendous anger, but decided to ignore it for now and quickly find soone else to copy from. This ti, he made sure he was copying correctly before continuing.

Sasuke wasn't the only one affected, so smart guys also tried to cheat from Jugo, but they were all irritated and frustrated, not understanding Jugo's madness.

Jugo didn't care, in the end, he finished the entire test, satisfied.

Luckily, Kin and Dosu were far away from him and didn't copy from him, otherwise, they would have been desperate by now.

Since they were both from the Sound Village, they were very sensitive to sound, using it to copy the answers through the frequency of the pencil taps of their targets..

If Jugo saw this, he would clap his hands in admiration, now that's a good skill.
