Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

I remember I participated in the Chunin Exams, right...?

Or have we come to the wrong place? Is this actually the Jonin exam site?

Chapter 55 Second Assessment

In fact, it wasn't just Minato; many people present had similar questions in their minds.

“I recognize him. He’s the Kagura from Konoha who’s known as the ‘Monster’.”

“Yes, that’s him.

My father once escaped with his life from his clutches, and when he returned, he specifically showed me his portrait.

He warned me that if I ever see this person again, I'd better stay far away.

"Damn, that's awesome, bro!"

Your father actually escaped from him?

Could he be a special Jonin?

"Forehead...

no...

My father was only a Chunin; the only reason he was able to escape was because he wasn't Kagura-sama's target...

"No, do you need to be so afraid of him?"

There are over 300 of us, and even if he were a Jonin, he'd only be one!

If we all go together, we can exhaust him to death.

"Judging from your headband, brother, you must be from Kirigakure, right?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"Why don't you go back and ask your Mizukage-sama where those ninja swords from your village are now...?"

......

Kagura's words caused a great stir, and many examinees began to discuss them amongst themselves.

Soon, the entire venue was filled with a noisy commotion.

It's no wonder they act this way.

Regardless of whether they were Konoha genin or not, almost 9% of the people present recognized Kagura immediately.

This is because, in the other four countries, Kagura's image was uniformly listed as the highest level of danger.

The only advice these higher-ups gave to all the middle and lower-ranking ninjas was...

That means if you see this person during a mission, forget about the mission and start running away at all costs.

There was no way around it; Kagura's prestige had already begun to spread twenty years ago when she was still a genin.

Over the years, his dangerousness has been proven by the blood of numerous enemies.

This prestige reached its peak after the Battle of the Valley at the end of the Second Shinobi World War.

Although, with the tacit consent of the three major powers, everyone intentionally concealed the specific details of that battle.

However, over the years, many details of that battle have slowly circulated in the ninja world.

The information that Kagura fought against Madara Uchiha has been confirmed.

Although Kagura ultimately lost that battle.

But who is Madara Uchiha?

Moreover, that was Uchiha Madara, who had obtained the Rinnegan and acquired four "Kage" as the Six Paths.

The fact that he survived a battle against such a being already proves his strength.

So apart from a few people who have a challenging mentality, most people are filled with despair at such an assessment.

Seeing that the discussion at the scene was getting louder and louder, Kagura raised her hand to signal.

As he made his move, everyone who had been paying attention to him immediately shut their mouths, and the room fell silent instantly.

After the scene quieted down again, Kagura spoke:

"Well, what I just said was a bit wrong."

Simply put, you're not trying to defeat me.

huh~~~

Hearing this, everyone felt much more relaxed and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

It was simply because so many people exhaled that it all coalesced into a single, loud exhalation.

"However, although you don't need to defeat me, you still need to fight me."

The group, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt their hearts leap into their throats again after Kagura uttered her next sentence.

Seeing everyone's constipated expressions, Kagura also revealed a satisfied smile.

Well, just a little teasing is fine, let's stop here.

Thinking to himself, he pulled out a scroll from his person and showed it to everyone.

Upon seeing the scroll with the character "门" (door) written on it, everyone looked puzzled.

Without keeping everyone waiting any longer, Kagura continued:

"The second test was to snatch this scroll from my hands."

Don't worry, I won't carry these scrolls on my person.

On the first level of the white tower in the dense forest, there were 100 such scrolls piled up.

And I will personally guard that place.

Anyone who enters the first floor of that tower will be attacked by me indiscriminately.

But as long as the scroll is obtained, the assessment is considered successful, and I will cease attacking the person who obtains the scroll.

After saying all this, Kagura paused for a moment.

After giving everyone some time to understand what he had just said, he continued:

There are three conditions for failing the second assessment.

The first type is those who lose consciousness under my attack.

If this happens, the person will be disqualified on the spot and taken away by the other examiners.

The second option is to set the assessment time at 24 hours.

Those who do not receive the scroll after 24 hours will be disqualified and forced to leave the examination room.

The third one...

At this point, he glanced at everyone with a slightly sinister look, chuckled, and then spoke:

"hey-hey.

The third one, as I just mentioned.

There are only 100 of these scrolls in total.

Therefore, theoretically, at most only 100 people can succeed in this second assessment.

In other words, this assessment will end when 100 people obtain scrolls from me.

At that time, those who did not obtain the scroll would automatically be considered failures.

so..."

Kagura didn't continue speaking at this point, but everyone present understood what he meant.

More than 300 people participated, but only 100 were able to pass the test.

So besides trying to snatch the scroll from Kagura as quickly as possible, another thing to keep in mind is to minimize your competitors.

Seeing the distrust in everyone's eyes after she had instigated them, Kagura revealed a triumphant smile.

The next second, he suddenly threw the scroll in his hand into the sky.

He formed a simple hand seal with one hand, and a ball of flame suddenly spewed out of his mouth.

The fireball, the size of a basketball, struck the scroll in mid-air with pinpoint accuracy.

In an instant, the scroll burst into flames after being hit by the fire.

Snapped!

By the time the scroll fell to the ground, it had already turned into ashes.

Everyone stared blankly at what was happening, but no one reacted.

After the scroll had completely burned away, Kagura smiled and looked at everyone, saying:

"Alright, another scroll is missing."

Therefore, there are now only 99 qualified people left.

Friends, I'll be waiting for you inside the White Pagoda.

After saying this, before anyone could react, Kagura suddenly turned into a white mist and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Clearly, this is just a shadow clone of Kagura.

His true form is probably already waiting for them on the first floor of that so-called White Tower.

After Kagura disappeared, the group finally began to take action after a brief silence.

At this point, Kagura's earlier provocation had clearly begun to take effect.

The initially dense crowd gradually dispersed, and everyone looked at the others with distrust.

An eerie atmosphere enveloped the crowd...
