Naruto: My Chat Group Spans History.

The Chunin Exams are being held as scheduled, and today marks the start of the preliminary rounds.

There were approximately 300 participants in this exam!

This was arguably the largest number ever recorded.

In a specially modified, huge classroom, three hundred candidates sat down in an orderly fashion.

The space not only doesn't feel cramped, but is actually quite spacious.

To accommodate all the examinees, Konoha dispatched Wood Release ninja, Captain Yamato Tsuchiki, to expand the classroom.

The fact that the gathering of 300 people was unusually quiet speaks volumes about the good manners of these young people.

Soon, the classroom door was gently pushed open, and five figures slowly entered.

Minato Namikaze, A, Onoki, Mei Terumi, and Rasa—all five Kage were present.

Dressed in their respective costumes, they smiled and conveyed encouragement and expectations to the audience.

The candidates' eyes lit up as they searched for the shadows of their own villages, their hearts filled with excitement and nervousness.

What if I perform poorly? Wouldn't I lose face?

As the host, Hokage Minato Namikaze spoke first.

He spoke quickly, first welcoming everyone and wishing them good results, and then briefly introducing the exam rules.

That's all I wanted to say. I wish you all the best in your exams.

Minato Namikaze concluded his speech with his signature warm smile.

This gentle warmth and sunshine not only made the people of Konoha feel at home, but also moved visitors from other villages.

Amidst enthusiastic applause, Minato smiled and stepped down from the stage.

Immediately afterwards, Raikage stepped forward and ascended the podium.

The examinees from Kumogakure were in high spirits, eagerly anticipating the Raikage's speech.

"Cough cough..."

The Raikage cleared his throat, a smile playing on his lips: "I think the Hokage has said almost everything he needed to say."

"I won't waste any more time, let's get straight to the exam."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Not only the candidates from Yunyin Village who were eagerly awaiting their turn in the audience.

Even the other figures turned their heads in surprise.

"You naughty boy, what kind of talk is that?"

Onoki frowned.

He then walked over to Lei Ying, quietly nudged him with his elbow, and muttered in dissatisfaction:

"There's a saying about the Hokage, but don't forget, there are not only Konoha examinees here, but also the children from our village."

"A few words of encouragement can make them have a deeper impression of the film."

Although Rasa and Terumi Mei did not speak, it was clear from their eyes that they shared the same view.

"Can't you be a little more clever?"

Raikage lowered his voice and muttered helplessly.

"Can't you see that Lady Yuzuki is getting a little impatient?"

"Still need to talk? Talk about what? Talk about how we were taken down by Konoha one against four?"

The Raikage's words startled the three of them.

What was originally a trivial matter becomes a huge deal once Yuyue is involved.

They immediately turned their attention to Shinomiya Yuuki, who appeared to be an ordinary examinee in the crowd.

The man looked completely ordinary, and was casually twirling his pen.

He looked rather bored.

As if sensing the gazes of the crowd, he suddenly looked up and smiled slightly at those eyes.

This smile sent a chill down the spines of the people present.

"Okay, let's do it your way and start the exam as soon as possible."

Onoki quickly said.

Raikage nodded and looked around the classroom.

Then, in his signature booming voice, he announced:

"I hereby declare the first session of the Chunin Exams officially open!"

The words struck like a heavy hammer, instantly creating a solemn atmosphere in the classroom.

After confirming that everything was in order, the Raikage exchanged a glance with Minato Namikaze and the others, and then left in tacit agreement.

Then, the proctor, Ibiki Morino, appeared.

He added several detailed exam rules to the blackboard.

And he was fully responsible for supervising the examination.

Outside the examination room, Minato and others closely monitored the situation inside through the observation window.

No tiny movement escapes their eyes.

However, instead of focusing on the candidates from their own village, they all turned their attention to the same person.

—Yuzuki Shinomiya!

"Hokage, aren't you going to stop him?"

After a long silence, the Raikage finally couldn't help but speak to Minato.

What was Konoha thinking? How could they put someone like that in the trivial Chunin Exams?

Besides, with Shinomiya Yuuki's strength, why would she need to take an exam?

They'd be more than qualified to be promoted directly to elite Jonin!

Minato Namikaze smiled calmly: "Let him have some fun. Don't worry, he knows his limits."

Yuyue had shown them immense kindness, yet she never made any demands.

He just wanted to have some fun in the Chunin Exams, so how could he refuse such a request?

Raikage was speechless for a moment.

"Okay...okay."

What else could he say?

"Fortunately, there's only one. As long as we avoid him and don't provoke him, we'll be fine."

"In the final one-on-one duel, it all comes down to who's unlucky enough to run into him."

As Raikage spoke, a smug smile crept across his face.

With so many candidates, it's unlikely that it would be a candidate from Kumogakure village facing off against Yuuki.

If they're not from your village, then just sit back and watch the show.

Minato suddenly smiled, a glint of intriguing light flashing in his eyes.

It seems that Naruto and Sasuke are preparing to give them a big surprise.

"Croak... Croak..."

A series of croaking sounds came, and Minato's expression changed instantly.

Looking down, I noticed a small toad had appeared at my feet.

"Is it Jiraiya-sensei looking for me?" Minato picked up the little toad and asked softly.

The little toad seemed to understand human speech and nodded.

"Everyone, I'll be leaving for a moment."

After a quick greeting to the Raikage and the others, Minato vanished in a flash.

He came to a secluded room.

Watergate pressed the toad close to its ear.

"Hello? Is this Jiraiya-sensei?"

Where are you now?

Jiraiya’s familiar voice came from inside the toad’s belly.

Using the magical spirit communication techniques of Mount Myōboku, the master and disciple began a dialogue that transcended the boundaries of time and space.

"Teacher, is there anything I can help you with?"

"I'm in Konoha."

"Konoha? Which Konoha?" Jiraiya's voice was filled with doubt.

"Teacher, is there ever another Konoha in the entire ninja world?" Minato asked with a helpless smile.

"Uh... Of course I know there's no second Konoha, but wasn't Konoha blown up?"

"I was there at the time; the explosion was Deidara's doing."

"That guy... I shouldn't have been curious enough to want to see his art."

Just thinking about this gave Jiraiya a headache.

No, what kind of kind person calls an explosion art?

He sighed and continued:
