Naruto: With just a kunai, he fought his way through the Third Shinobi Chapter 30 30, that was way too fast!

"You've been promoted to Special Jonin?" Tsukiyo exclaid in surprise.

"Well, this ti I'm back, I plan to see if I have the chance to take the Jonin exam as well."

"Jonin?"

Upon hearing this, Tsukiyo's eyes widened and her small mouth slightly opened.

She was already surprised when her boyfriend said he had been promoted to Special Jonin, but then he went on to say he wanted to take the Jonin exam too.

My boyfriend is moving way too fast!

Before setting off, he was just an ordinary Chunin, but after going to the Land of Rivers for only about ten days, he beca a Special Jonin upon his return and even had to take the Jonin exam.

Although there aren't many ranks for ninjas, precisely because there aren't many, each rank is clearly distinct.

It's not difficult for a genin to be promoted to chunin; most people can do it. However, most of them reach their ceiling there and remain chunin for the rest of their lives.

Promotion to Special Jonin is already a one-in-ten chance, and Jonin is even more of a one-in-a-hundred chance.

The assessnt of each Jonin must be conducted personally by the leader of their own ninja village.

Konoha, in particular, has always been known for having the strongest individual ninja among the five great ninja villages.

The requirents for Jonin are naturally the highest.

"Souji, are you serious?"

"Of course it's true, how could you joke about that?"

Tsukiyo stared at him blankly.

If it's a normal matter, she definitely won't think too much about it; she'll just offer support and encouragent.

But the Jonin exam is different; it's far too important.

Born into the Hyuga clan, although she was not of high status, she was still quite knowledgeable and had so understanding of the Jonin Exams.

Although there are no special consequences for failing, and there is no specific rule on how many tis each person can take the Jonin Exam, each Jonin Exam is conducted by the Hokage himself.

Failing multiple tis will naturally have a serious impact on one's image in the Hokage's eyes.

Therefore, it is not true that there are no consequences and one can take the exam at will.

Although the Hokage is usually very gentle with everyone, he doesn't hold back at all during the Jonin Exams!

Thinking this, Tsukiyo suddenly rembered sothing and was startled again.

"Wait! To be assessed as a Jonin, you need to have completed at least 10 A-rank missions or 1 S-rank mission, Souji..."

"I just completed an S-class mission."

"S-class…"

Tsukiyo was speechless for a mont.

S-rank missions are the highest level missions, and the content assessnt indicates that you will definitely face at least 10 Jonin-level enemies, and even... possibly Kage-level enemies!

That's the level of difficulty that deserves an S rating!

Has the Souji already done it?

"Alright, let's stop standing here and talk. Let's find a place to sit down and chat." Souji smiled.

"Oh, okay..."

At that mont, Hyuga Kei walked over.

"Sister Tsukiyo".

"Huh? Hyuga Kei? You're here too?"

"Yes, I was a mber of Mr. Mochizuki's team in the land of rivers, so I ca back together."

"Yes, welco back. Aunt Natsumi has been very worried about your situation in the Land of Rivers.

Please go back soon!"

"Then I'll head back now."

Hyuga Kei nodded slightly, then turned and left.

"Are you familiar with Kei?" Souji asked.

"Familiar... I'm fairly familiar with them, but not very close," Tsukiyo said with slight hesitation.

The Hyuga clan is a top-tier ninja clan in Konoha, with hundreds of mbers. It's not surprising that they aren't all close to each other, and so people only know each other's nas and have no interaction at all.

It seems that Tsukiyo and Kei were indeed like that. Kei had only co over to say hello out of politeness since they had run into each other.

However, Souji was just asking casually and didn't care how close the two were.

Souji was thinking that although his initial motivation was to help Minato change his fate, once he beca Hokage, he didn't intend to just give up.

He still had to do what he was supposed to do.

For example, the issue of the Hyuga clan.

The main family uses the Caged Bird Seal to control the branch family...

This is really too barbaric.

Although the Hyuga clan mbers are willing to do it, such a barbaric thing is still out in the open and known to everyone.

Ultimately, it is sowhat detrintal to the unity of Konoha.

Don't do things that are detrintal to unity.

Anyway, Hiashi Hyuga would have realized the problem himself decades later and voluntarily canceled the main family's branch, so there's no problem with him doing it a little earlier.

...

As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Souji and Tsukiyo had a pleasant night.

Souji briefly recounted his experiences in the land of rivers to Tsukiyo.

Of course, the truly important things are glossed over, especially the thrilling and exciting events, which are simply omitted.

This kind of thing might be considered bragging to others, but there's no need to say it to those close to you.

If Tsukiyo heard this, she would only worry. It's better not to pretend to be sothing she's not.

In the morning, the Souji left ho in high spirits.

Those who returned to Konoha from the battlefront in the Land of Rivers, except for a few seriously injured, would mostly go to the Land of Rain to provide support after three days of recuperation.

Yesterday, including these three days, ans I only have two days left in the village, so I need to finish things quickly.

Fortunately, I only have two things to do.

The first thing I did was buy the Kunai Shadow Clone Technique.

Although the system had already given this technique as a reward, every technique a ninja learns is recorded.

If soone can use this technique without having purchased or practiced it, it raises suspicions of stealing ninjutsu, which could cause so trouble. It's best to maintain a facade.

The second thing was to go to the Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and apply to take the Jonin Exams.

Having completed an S-rank mission, I'm qualified to apply.

With my current strength, I'm not worried about failing the exam. I just don't know if the Hokage will have ti to deal with .

If I can't take the exam in the next couple of days, I'll have to go to the Land of Rain first.

Jonin must be personally assessed by the village leader, unlike Special Jonin, where high-ranking personnel on the front lines are promoted on short notice.

There's a significant difference in status between Jonin and Special Jonin, and the amount of influence and autonomy they have is completely different.

If I go to the Land of Rain as a special Jonin, I'm afraid I won't be able to do many things freely, unless I rely on my strength to force things everywhere, but that's not a good idea.

With that thought in mind, Souji walked to the secret vault.

This is where scrolls of high-ranking ninjutsu (rank B and above) are stored. It's an important place, and even the guards are two Jonin (high-ranking ninja).

The real person in charge was actually one of Konoha's two high-ranking advisors, Mitokado Homura.

If a Konoha ninja wants to learn advanced ninjutsu, the main way is to go to the secret vault and buy it with silver.

Ninjutsu of rank A or above, so even have requirents regarding status and strength, and cannot be purchased by anyone who is not a Jonin.

For example, Naruto's signature technique in the early stages, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, was only rated A.

However, because it consud too much chakra, even using it could be life-threatening for those with limited chakra reserves.

Therefore, it was classified as a forbidden technique, and only Jonin were qualified to purchase and practice it.

However, the Shadow Clone Technique, although also an A-rank ninjutsu, is only ranked based on the difficulty of the ninjutsu itself, and therefore has no other restrictions on its training.

Upon arriving at the secret vault, Souji saw a black-haired man erge from inside.

It was none other than Uchiha Fugaku, who had recently shown off in front of him.
