It should be noted that members of the Hyuga clan are born with the Byakugan.

However, in the early stages, when there is insufficient chakra and lack of proficiency, it is possible to achieve this.

To open the Byakugan, you must first form a hand seal that opens the eye.

In the original work!

Even a genius like Hyuga Neji had to perform hand seals to awaken his Sharingan during the Chunin Exams.

I never expected that Hinata Hyuga could awaken her Sharingan without using any seals!

have to say.

This is truly a pleasant surprise!

"There are fifteen minutes left, and we've almost finished cleaning up the trash. So, let's get straight to the point..."

Just as the tension in the air was rising, Ibiki Morino suddenly spoke up, revealing a piece of news that shocked everyone present.

That is, the tenth question in this written test!

Yes.

The written test papers that the candidates are holding now have ten questions on them.

However, the area below the title of question 10 is completely blank.

At the beginning.

Everyone thought it was just a non-existent test question.

It's just to make up the number of questions so that the questions on both sides of the exam paper are symmetrical!

It looks slightly more standard and aesthetically pleasing.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a hidden question whose information was only revealed at the very end!

When Ibiki Morino publicly announced this hidden question.

The faces of everyone present instantly darkened.

Because they know.

This is a hidden question that was only revealed at the very end.

Definitely not simple!

However, Jiang Cheng wasn't worried at all.

Because he knew that this so-called tenth question didn't actually exist at all.

This is just a false proposition deliberately released by the sadist Ibiki Morino to torment people!

It looks a bit intimidating.

But in reality, it's not difficult at all!

As long as you choose to answer the questions, you can pass directly!

Moreover, they can disregard their previous written test scores and advance directly to the next round!

of course.

Currently, only Jiang Cheng knows this inside information.

The other candidates were completely unaware.

and so.

After Ibiki Morino revealed the answer to the tenth question.

Apart from Jiangcheng, all the candidates were faced with a difficult choice.

[Tobirama Senju: Is Ibiki Morino out of his mind? Presenting someone with such an inhuman multiple-choice question is practically forcing them to give up!]

[Uchiha Izuna: Yeah, if we give up, this is our only chance to become a Chunin, but if we answer incorrectly, we'll be banned from taking the exam for life!]

[Yagura Karatachi: The Chunin Exams are held every six months. If it were me, I'd just give up. It's safer; I'll be back in six months anyway!]

[Kondo Mune: That's right, that's what I thought too!]

[The Third Raikage: Now I finally understand why the genin of Konoha are all so strong!]

[Loquat Ten Treasures: Why?]

[Third Raikage: Isn't this obvious? If some powerful but brainless genin were to choose to answer the tenth question...]

If you answer correctly, that's fine, but if you answer incorrectly, wouldn't you be banned from taking exams for life and forced to be a genin for the rest of your life?

[Biwa Juzo: Right, although the genin who are banned from taking the exams can't continue to improve their ninja rank, their strength continues to accumulate day by day...]

At this point, Pipa Juzo suddenly remembered something.

It suddenly dawned on me.

[Loquat Juzo: That Might Guy, you wouldn't happen to be the product of someone banned from taking exams for life, would you?]

[Might Guy: No, I didn't even participate in the Chunin Exams back then!]

[Loquat Ten Treasures: Why?]

[Might Guy: Why become a ninja? Wouldn't it be better to be a genin who can enjoy his retirement, playing dumb to outsmart others?]

[Loquat Ten Treasures: ...]

[Tobirama Senju: Fourth Hokage, Shisui, you younger generation who died later, you must have participated in the Chunin Exams written tests before, right?]

[Minato Namikaze: Yes, I participated!]

[Uchiha Shisui: Why is the Second Hokage asking this?]

[Tobirama Senju: I just want to ask, did you guys also encounter this kind of stupid choice back then?]

[Minato Namikaze: No, that's not true. It was probably a question added or modified at the last minute!]

[Uchiha Shisui: I haven't encountered that either, but I know that the proctors of the Chunin Exams can add or modify bonus questions without violating the exam rules!]

[Tobirama Senju: Is that so? It seems this so-called multiple-choice question was created by Ibiki Morino himself!]

[Uchiha Shisui: That's possible!]

[Hashirama Senju: Second brother, I think this Ibiki Morino is very likely a scout spy planted in the village by another country!]

[Tobirama Senju: Hmm, I've noticed that too. This guy is doing everything he can to prevent others from advancing to Chunin, isn't it just to sabotage the relationship between our Hidden Leaf Village and the other ninja villages?]

[Hashirama Senju: That's right, that's what I think too. And most of these examinees are genin from our Hidden Leaf Village. The more they eliminate, the weaker our village's strength becomes!]

[Hyuga Hizashi: First Hokage, there doesn't seem to be much of a connection between eliminating genin for advancement and weakening the village's strength, right? Anyway, the person is there; they can't run away!]

[Tobirama Senju: Hizashi, you're thinking too simply. My brother means that the highest a genin can accept is a C-rank mission, eliminating most of the candidates who are going to become chunin. This means that our Konoha Village will lose a large number of chunin.]

This will definitely affect the progress of our village in accepting commissioned tasks.

[Hyuga Hizashi: I see. I didn't expect the First and Second Hokage to be so busy even after their deaths. They were thinking much further ahead than us!]

[Tobirama Senju: Isn't that obvious? Otherwise, how would we brothers become Hokage?]

Jiang Cheng: "You two brothers really know how to praise yourselves. This multiple-choice question is just a pseudo-question used to test the courage of the candidates. As long as you choose the answer, you can pass. It's not as complicated as you two think."

[Tobirama Senju: You know that too, kid?]

Jiang Cheng: "Nonsense, didn't I say last time that I can tell fortunes? I can predict anything with just a few calculations!"

[Tobirama Senju: You're just bragging. Do you think you're my sister-in-law?]

[Mito Uzumaki: Tobirama, what do you mean by that? Are you saying I'm a braggart?]

[Tobirama Senju: No, sister-in-law, only my older brother knows whether you're good or bad at it. How could I possibly know that!]

[Hashirama Senju: ???]

[Mito Uzumaki: You bastard, your head is full of filthy things all day long. When I say "boasting," I mean the kind of boasting, not the kind of boasting you're talking about!]

Furthermore, I have never boasted about your elder brother!

[Tobirama Senju: Ahem~ I was just saying that Jiang was bragging, you've got the wrong idea, sister-in-law!]

Mito Uzumaki: ...

Jiang Cheng: "Hehe~ Tobirama, if you think I'm bragging, then let's make a bet, shall we?"

[Tobirama Senju: How do you want to gamble?]

Jiang Cheng: "It's very simple. If what I said is true, you give me the Thousand Hands bloodline. If what I said is wrong, I'll do something for you for free!"

[Tobirama Senju: Damn it, you little brat, you're trying to take advantage of my Senju bloodline again? No way, this bet is too unfair to me.]

Besides, you haven't fulfilled the contract you promised me last time! I can't afford to gamble with you now!

Jiang Cheng: "Uh... I never thought that the Second Hokage would be such a coward!"

Tobirama Senju: This isn't cowardice, it's just that you're too cunning, and I have to be on guard.

Okay, if you're right, I'll give you a high-level area-of-effect water jutsu.

If you're wrong, I don't need you to do anything for me. You just need to complete the contract task I gave you last time within three days. How about that?

Jiang Cheng: "Okay!"

[Tobirama Senju: What?! When did you become so agreeable?]

Jiang Cheng: "Since it's a free water escape technique, why not take it!"

Tobirama Senju: You...

Tobirama Senju was about to mutter a few more words.

Before he could even finish speaking...

Meanwhile, Ibiki Morino revealed the answer to the tenth question.

Just as Jiang Cheng said.

That hidden tenth question was indeed a choice that tested the candidates' courage and sense of responsibility.

All the candidates who remained passed the written exam!

And those candidates who were worried about facing a lifetime ban from taking the exam.

They all left the examination room dejectedly.

This further reduced the already small number of test takers!

Jiang Cheng: "The Second Hokage, give it to me!"

[Tobirama Senju: You bastard... you tricked me with your ninjutsu again!]

Jiang Cheng: "Hehe~ How can this be called a trap? I just said I can tell fortunes. You insisted on walking into this mess and giving me a ninjutsu. What can I do?"

Tobirama Senju: Damn it...

Although I was very unwilling, I was the Hokage of a ninja village.

Tobirama Senju obediently sent out a [Great Explosive Water Wave]!

Jiang Cheng: "Wow~ It's actually an A-rank Water Release technique! As expected of the Second Hokage, he's really generous!"

[Tobirama Senju: Hmph~ I said I would bet a high-level Water Release technique, and I will never go back on my word.]

Regardless, I am a ninja who bears the title of Kage; how could I possibly go back on my word?

It wasn't actually Tobirama Senju who was generous.

In the eyes of this water-style ninja, water-style ninjutsu below rank A cannot be considered high-level water-style ninjutsu!

It took quite a bit of trouble.

This written test, ostensibly a written exam but actually a test of intelligence gathering abilities, has finally come to an end.

Most of the candidates were eliminated in the end by Ibiki Morino's tricky multiple-choice questions!

Jiangcheng looked around.

It was discovered that only 45 candidates had survived.

That means 15 teams!

There are nearly half as many people as the 26 teams in the original work.
