Naruto: With just a kunai, he fought his way through the Third Shinobi Chapter 34 34 Your teacher will always be your teacher!

"Those two guys are really..."

The Hokage shook his head and sighed helplessly.

Most of the strong ninjas in Konoha were too individualistic, which made him very worried.

I originally thought that Souji and Minato were of the sa type. Not only were they strong, but they also had good personalities.

They were easy to use and didn't require to worry about them.

But now it seems... that's not the case.

The Hokage arranged for Might Guy to replace a Chunin, and then addressed the crowd:

"This is Mochizuki Souji, who will be taking the Jonin Exams this ti. He will have to face the combined attack of the ten of you and hold out for more than five minutes."

Everyone looked at the Souji, but the three Jonin at the head of the group didn't look too good.

They all heard Souji tell Orochimaru to resolve the first battle as soon as possible.

Does this an they don't take them seriously at all?

That's incredibly arrogant! They've only just made a na for themselves, and they're already acting like this!

You'll see what happens in a minute!

Normally, although everyone takes these assessnts seriously, no one will truly give it their all.

However, the three of them exchanged glances and instantly reached a consensus, preparing to give this newcor a head-on blow and make him understand the power of Konoha's Jonin!

The Hokage observed all of this but didn't intend to pay any attention, and continued:

"This assessnt will use training tools only.

Kunai and shuriken will not be sharpened.

Explosive tags will be replaced with smoke tags. In addition, each person may only use one ninja beast summoning beast."

"Any ninja tool that hits a vital spot is considered a fatal wound in battle, and the injured person must leave the battlefield imdiately."

"If a non-vital area is hit more than ten tis, the player must leave the ga."

"Does anyone have any questions?"

After scanning the crowd and finding no objections, the Hokage concluded:

"You have five minutes to prepare. The assessnt will begin in five minutes."

After saying that, the Hokage slowly stepped back and stood next to Orochimaru.

"Let's discuss everyone's arrangents and tactics."

The Nara clan has always been the intellectual backbone of Konoha.

The Nara Jonin gathered the others for a discussion and first asked Asuma and the other two:

"I heard that in the Land of Rivers, your original leader suffered an injury, and later Mochizuki Souji took over as your leader. Is that true?"

"Yes."

"Tell about his personality and fighting style."

"this..."

Although this was just an assessnt, Asuma and Kurenai felt it was inappropriate to easily disclose information about acquaintances to others, and they appeared hesitant and conflicted on the spot.

The Nara Jonin glared at them and said:

"This is an assessnt, so it's only natural to make targeted decisions. Don't have any unnecessary psychological burden."

"You guys seem to be taking the Chunin Exams too, right?

It's one thing when you're a Genin, but when you get to Chunin, you might even have the chance to be assigned missions to hunt down rogue ninja.

What will you do then?

Will you refuse to obey orders because of personal feelings?"

"this..."

Asuma and Red seem to have it more difficult.

Hyuga Kei hesitated for a mont, then said softly:

"Even if we say it, it probably won't make any difference."

"What do you an?" Nara Jonin frowned.

"As three Jonin, you should have heard of Mr. Mochizuki's achievents and general information in the Land of Rivers, right?

For example, his kunai never misses its mark."

"..."

Hyuga Kei continued calmly:

"Although we haven't been following Mr. Mochizuki for long... from what we've seen, it's true that no matter what kind of ninjutsu, ninja tools, or other thods the enemy uses, whether they're trying to defend or dodge, the final result is always futile."

"Mr. Mochizuki's kunai throws are guaranteed to hit the enemy every ti, right?

Asuma, Kurenai?" Hyuga Kei looked at the two of them.

After Hyuga Kei said that, the two thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that they didn't need to struggle so much.

They didn't know much about Mr. Mochizuki's lack of skills to begin with, and even if they wanted to say sothing, they couldn't say anything of importance.

So the two of them said one after the other:

"That's right, that's exactly it. All we know is that Mr. Mochizuki's kunai is sothing that cannot be blocked or evaded by any ans."

"Of course, we don't know the principles and weaknesses of this technique."

At this mont, Might Guy also spoke up:

"I sparred with Souji.

At that ti, Souji threw ten kunai at . I opened two of the Eight Gates, which greatly increased my explosive power.

I threw several hundred punches with all my might, but I couldn't knock down even one of the kunai. All ten kunai broke through my attack and hit ."

"..."

Hearing the four of them say this in turn, Nara Jonin couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

It felt like they just listened to these few people praising Mochizuki Souji.

All we know is that our opponent is strong and uses mysterious thods, but we don't have any useful information. What should we do?

"There is no such thing as a perfect technique; every technique must have a weakness!"

"But against an opponent whose background is unknown, the only strategy is to probe and figure out their tactics first, but the assessnt only lasts 5 minutes…" The Jonin of the Inuzuka clan also expressed his dilemma.

Under the guidance of the Nara Jonin, the group continued their discussion.

At the sa ti, the Hokage and Orochimaru were also chatting.

"You actually ca all this way, so it seems you're quite interested in him?" the Hokage asked.

"Having seen him in action, that kunai technique is indeed very special. Even I can't figure out its details, so I thought I'd try it myself."

"You... don't do anything bad to young people."

The Hokage's expression turned serious.

At this ti, Orochimaru had not yet begun capturing Konoha ninjas for human experintation; he was still the Hokage's prized student on whom he placed high hopes.

Actually, compared to Jiraiya, the Hokage preferred the intelligent and composed Orochimaru to Jiraiya, whose temperant was more similar to his own.

However, as a teacher, the Hokage was aware of his student's character.

Orochimaru's thoughts and actions were rather extre and biased. He might do sothing out of re interest, so the Hokage issued a warning.

"The teacher is joking. I never intended to do anything bad."

Orochimaru chuckled, crossed his arms, and glanced at the Hokage.

"Not only Mochizuki Souji, but I also look forward to sparring with you, teacher. It's been 5 years since our last match, hasn't it?"

"Pretty much. Back then, you guys got a really bad beating from Hanzo, and you were really unwilling to accept it.

So you worked hard and trained seriously for two years.

Then you thought you were good enough and ca to to challenge to a match, but you got another bad beating from !"

"..."

As the Hokage spoke, he burst into hearty laughter, while Orochimaru's expression turned awkward for a mont, though he quickly recovered.

"I'm not the sa person I used to be, Sarutobi-sensei."

"It's no use being different. In my eyes, you're all still very green. You young people are all so arrogant.

Today, I finally have a chance to show you what I'm capable of, so you'll know that your teacher will always be your teacher! Hahahaha!"
