In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 122 Itachi and Sasuke, the stepfather is heartbroken

Acid Rain is the name of the identity that Itachi Uchiha is currently posing as.

The name Amegakure is quite strange; almost everyone's name contains the character "rain".

Yecang called it Drizzle.

As for Qianye, his name is even more comical: "Hiding from the Rain."

Uchiha Itachi glanced at Chiya indifferently, without saying anything, just quietly looking at Sasuke, thinking to himself, Sasuke, why are you still so weak? Is your hatred for me not enough?

Just then, Might Guy's summoned turtle suddenly arrived and stopped Rock Lee from casting Lotus Flower on Sasuke.

Then Matt Kai made a dazzling entrance in an extremely flamboyant manner.

First, he punched Rock Lee for misusing the Lotus Flower, then hugged him and sang praises of youth.

The two grown men actually hugged each other and burst into tears.

This left everyone speechless, and black lines appeared on their foreheads.

After Might Guy left with Rock Lee, Yekura finally couldn't hold back anymore and laughed, her lips twitching. "You Konoha ninjas are really something else!"

"Don't underestimate this Might Guy. He's the only person in the ninja world who has fully mastered the forbidden taijutsu, the Eight Gates." Chiya suppressed a laugh. "But his appearance, well, it is indeed quite comical."

"The Eight Gates?" Yekura was suddenly startled. "Is that the forbidden technique that defeated the First Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist?"

"Hmm, this is only the effect of a genin. If it were Might Guy, an elite jonin, to use it, I'm afraid no one in the entire ninja world could defeat him head-on."

Chiya replied, then added, "However, we don't need to worry about this situation. Unless Konoha faces a true life-or-death moment, he won't use it, because using it would mean death."

"But they are no longer to be underestimated, because the Seven Gates alone are enough to defeat more than half of the organization's members."

Yekura exclaimed, "That's quite a terrifying guy."

As they were talking, Naruto noticed them from a distance and called out, "Ah, it's that bandaged guy and his group!"

"Were these guys just watching the show the whole time? And so casually at that. They completely disregard me and that Rock Lee! Damn it!"

Sasuke also noticed the three of them, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth, inwardly screaming in frustration.

As for Sakura, realizing that Chiya and the others were not to be trifled with, she immediately grabbed Naruto by the neck and apologized to the three of them, "Sorry, my teammate has some mental issues."

A flicker of disdain crossed Qianye's eyes—it was directed at Sakura. Just as he was about to leave, Erzhuzi's arrogant voice suddenly rang out behind him, "Hey, you guy covered in bandages, what's your name?"

Upon hearing this, Qianye replied with a rather wicked sense of humor: "I am your stepfather who is taking shelter from the rain."

"The stepfather seeking shelter from the rain," Erzhuzi murmured, his brows furrowing. No matter how he listened, something just didn't feel right.

But I just can't figure out what's wrong.

I simply stopped thinking about it.

Just as he was imagining himself fiercely protecting his clan, just like when he faced Gaara, Chiya's voice echoed in his ears again, "You're the last surviving member of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke Uchiha, right?"

"Damn it, my name is Uchiha Sasuke." The word "Sasuke" reminded Sasuke of Chiya, so his tone wasn't very friendly.

Back then, that guy would call him Erzhuzi to everyone he met.

For a time, many people didn't even know his real name.

He hates it the most.

Chiya continued to tease, "Call me whatever you want, Uchiha Sasuke. I have to say, you're really weak. You've awakened the Sharingan, yet you can't even beat a brat with no bloodline limit or ninjutsu talent... It seems the Sharingan is nothing special after all."

"Damn it!" Upon hearing this, Sasuke was instantly enraged and was about to make a move when Qianye suddenly appeared beside him, placing his right hand on Sasuke's shoulder.

Chiya used a speed equivalent to that of an ordinary Chunin.

But this was enough to give Erzhuzi a huge fright at this moment.

"He's even faster than that Rock Lee from before! Damn it, when did he get next to me?" Erzhuzi thought in shock.

"I look forward to seeing you at the Chunin Exams. Let's go." Chiya patted Sasuke on the shoulder, turned back and called out to Itachi and Pakura, then hurried towards the registration area.

Yecang responded and caught up.

Itachi gave Sasuke a deep look before following closely behind.

All that remained were a devastated Sasuke, a bewildered Naruto, and a terrified Sakura.

Naruto glanced at Sasuke, and with his rare display of emotional intelligence, he noticed Sasuke's disappointment. He offered a clumsy attempt at comforting him, saying, "What's the big deal? The Uchiha clan isn't all that great, is it?"

"Shut up, I'll definitely beat them next time." Erzhuzi's shoulders trembled slightly, his head was half lowered, half of his body covered by shadow.

"They were clearly utterly defeated." Naruto glanced at his second nephew again, gloating.

"Tsk," Erzhuzi clicked his tongue lightly, his eyes trembling with anger.

Naruto felt it was about time, and his expression became serious. He said solemnly, "Just now... did you see that hand with the thick eyebrows?"

Erzhuzi was taken aback. "You mean?"

Naruto nodded. "Those are scars from training. It means that the guy with the thick eyebrows has been training incredibly hard, even harder than you."

And that mummy-like bandaged man is the same; just like the guy with thick eyebrows who didn't want anyone to see his hands, the reason he's covered in bandages is definitely to hide his body. Maybe he's even more diligent in his training than the guy with thick eyebrows.

It's that simple.

Sasuke understood Naruto's implied meaning, and his fighting spirit instantly ignited. He laughed, "Interesting. It seems the Chunin Exams are getting more and more interesting."

Meanwhile, Chiya and her two companions had arrived at the examination hall and saw Kakashi from Class 7 waiting at the entrance.

The three of them brushed past Kakashi and went straight inside.

Kakashi was startled, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead. He thought to himself, "What just happened? Why did those three Rain Village members give me such a chilling feeling?"

Just then, the three members of Team 7 arrived, and Naruto shouted, "Kakashi-sensei!"

Inside the examination room.

Itachi, who had already sat down, glanced towards the door and asked Chiya in a low voice, "Why do something so unnecessary?"

"Isn't this what you really wanted to do? To keep you out of the spotlight while also giving that foolish Ototo a good talking-to, I, your stepfather who's been taking shelter from the rain, have gone to great lengths for you two brothers."

Chiya shrugged and spread his hands, his words carrying a double meaning, and his gaze began to subtly sweep over the group of genin around him.
