c142 Graduation Assessment

After putting on the mask, he seemed to feel bad and disappeared from the spot. He changed into a spiral mask from somewhere and reappeared behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Seeing his action, Ikkaku Umino remained silent. He naturally knew Sarutobi Shinnosuke.

He knew everyone in the Hokage’s family.

As a subordinate, he knew the members of the leader’s family. It was reasonable, right?

Ikkaku Umino thought it was reasonable.

As a subordinate, it was normal for him to care about the leader’s family.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also noticed Sarutobi Shinnosuke’s action, but he did not stop it.

At this time, in the Ninja School, Yuichi Yuuki looked at the people taking the test on the ring, while Obito Uchiha and others kept talking about what would happen after graduation beside him.

The test for early graduation was more difficult, but there was no pressure on them.

Obito Uchiha and Asuma Sarutobi were talking, Kakashi Hatake did not speak beside them, but just listened quietly, and Might Guy looked at them with envy.

Yuhi Kurenai came close to Yuichi Yuu and said, “Yuichi, I also want to graduate early.”

Hearing this, Yuichi Yuu looked at her, then shook his head solemnly and said, “No!”

“Uncle Shinkuren will not agree.”

“And I don’t agree either.”

Hearing this, Yuhi Kurenai pouted her little mouth, looking uncomfortable.

“But I also want to protect Yuichi.” Yuhi Kurenai murmured in a low voice. Hearing her words, Yuichi Yuu sighed. He really didn’t want to graduate early.

Isn’t it good to be safe and sound in the ninja school?

If it weren’t for Uzumaki Kushina to teach him the sealing technique, he wouldn’t even consider such a thing.

Although he didn’t know why the study of sealing techniques required graduation early, he still chose to believe in Uzumaki Kushina.

After all, she couldn’t possibly harm her only child.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen and others had already walked to the school gate and happened to meet Namikaze Minato.

“Hokage-sama.” Namikaze Minato smiled and greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen, then walked to Uzumaki Kushina and said, “Is it done?”

“Yes, it’s done.” Uzumaki Kushina smiled and spoke confidently.

It seems that as long as she takes action, nothing is impossible.

Hearing her words, Namikaze Minato also nodded.

He and Uzumaki Kushina discussed the matter of Yuichi Yuuichi graduating early.

Because the situation in the ninja world is not very good recently, Uzumaki Kushina is worried that Yuichi Yuuichi may go directly to the battlefield when he graduates.

So she discussed with Namikaze Minato and let him graduate early to give him some practical experience.

Otherwise, learning the sealing technique would not result in early graduation.

He can learn at school. Anyway, Yuichi Yuuichi skips classes every morning, so it’s okay to skip classes in the afternoon.

Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato whispered, then frowned and said, “But is this really okay?”

“I can’t leave Konoha.”

She said with some worry.

As the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she couldn’t leave the village, and even had to move within certain ranges for a while.

Although she had gone out on missions, it was a long time ago.

Hearing her words, Namikaze Minato scratched his head, then said, “Don’t worry, it’s okay.”

His idea was to let Uzumaki Kushina take Yuichi Yuuki in the village and teach him the knowledge and learning of sealing techniques, while he would take him on missions every now and then.

In this way, he and Uzumaki Kushina would take Yuichi Yuuki with them, and the safety would be maximized.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was walking in front, looked at Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina who were muttering beside him, and he also had an idea in his mind.

Although he didn’t know why Yuichi Yuuki wanted to graduate early, it was probably Uzumaki Kushina’s idea.

He had originally planned to arrange for Minato Namikaze to become the team leader in two years, but now it seems that this goal can be achieved first.

As for what he had promised Uzumaki Kushina before, that Yuichi Yuuki would be under her command after graduation, there was no problem in his eyes.

Uzumaki Kushina couldn’t leave the village now, so the two of them would serve as the team leader together.

Now with Yuichi Yuuki, wouldn’t there be three people graduating early?

Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito, Yuichi Yuuki.

The three of them trained together, and now they graduated early together, it was reasonable to be assigned to a small team.

As for Asuma Sarutobi, he didn’t take it to heart.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke would handle it himself, and he didn’t need to say anything.

And Sarutobi Shinnosuke couldn’t see his expression because he was wearing a mask, but from his clenched hands, it could be seen that he was not in a good mood.

It was similar to what Sarutobi Hiruzen thought. If Asuma Sarutobi wanted to graduate, he would be a hurdle that he couldn’t pass.

As for Umino Ikkaku, he followed at the back, occasionally looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen and Sarutobi Shinnosuke, and occasionally looking at Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina, with a lot of emotion in his heart.

The five people in the group had their own ideas, but their ideas merged together.

When they walked into the school, the final exams here were almost over.

The last student on the stage.

As for Yuuki Yuichi, he gave up directly when it was his turn.

It was decided to graduate early, and he didn’t want to go up to play house.

Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Obito also followed suit and gave up directly.

“Hmph!” Asuma Sarutobi snorted, “I am the one who wants to graduate early!”

“I don’t want to play house with them here!”

He said, crossing his arms, acting like God is the boss and I am the second child.

Uchiha Obito scratched his head beside him, “Isn’t it bad for us to do this?”

“What’s wrong?” Sarutobi Asuma said, pointing to the students who were overjoyed because they admitted defeat.

“It’s a good thing for them that we admit defeat.”

“That’s true, but I still feel a little bad.” Uchiha Obito still scratched his head.

When Yuki Yu heard what the two of them said, he glanced at them. Uchiha Obito was really a carefree and passionate idiot before he turned black.

And he’s the kind of hot-blooded idiot who knows what’s wrong.

While they were talking, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the four of them, Uzumaki Kushina, walked onto the high platform.

Looking at the students who were still taking assessments, they stood quietly on the high platform.

The students below saw him with keen eyes and frantically gestured to the people around him.

Soon, the news that Lord Hokage came to see their assessment spread throughout the school.

“It’s so energetic.” Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the students below and couldn’t help but sigh.

“They’re just a bunch of brats.” Uzumaki Kushina curled her lips noncommittally.

When he was a child in a ninja school, a group of people teased her about her red hair and was bullied.

Although she later beat them back and beat them every time they met, she didn’t have a good impression of the students of the ninja school.

When the final assessment was completed, Umino Ikkaku shouted directly to the students below: “Yuichi Yuuki, Obito Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake and Asuma Sarutobi!”

“You four come on stage! Lord Hokage has approved your application for early graduation.”

As his words fell, the students below were dumbfounded.

Graduating early?

Someone actually graduated early? !

You must know that some people can’t even pass the normal graduation examination, let alone the extremely difficult examination to graduate early!

Everyone knows the requirements for early graduation, but they don’t dare to try.

After hearing Umino Ikkaku’s words, Yuki Yuichi and the four of them looked at each other, and then jumped directly to the stage.

Seeing the four of them coming out, Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed lightly, looked at Sarutobi Asuma calmly, and then said: “You are all geniuses, and geniuses do not need to grow up like other people.”

“Following the normal training process will be a drag on you.”

“So there is an early graduation assessment,”

Sarutobi Hiruzen said, glanced at them, and then continued: “You are geniuses recognized by me!”

“So, I decided to give you four the most difficult test!”

As he spoke, he gestured to Sarutobi Shinnosuke beside him.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke didn’t hesitate at all and jumped directly from the high platform to the ring.

Yuki Yuichi and the others looked at the ANBU wearing a spiral mask in front of them, and they had a bad feeling in their hearts.

When Sarutobi Asuma had a sudden thought in his heart, he felt that the ANBU opposite him was a bit familiar, but he couldn’t remember exactly how familiar it was.

So he attributed it to the ANBU he had seen before.

There was no doubt that this was his biological brother.

He still doesn’t know what his brother is doing. He only knows that he goes out early and comes back late every day, so naturally he has no thoughts about ANBU.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen’s voice came again.

“Your graduation assessment is very simple.”

“If a single person is attacked by this ANBU for ten minutes, he will only be able to use various Chunin methods.”

“You can also choose to work in pairs, but you have to endure his attack for half an hour.”

“During the battle, if you lose the ability to move, it will be regarded as a failure in the assessment.”

“So start making your choices.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped talking after he finished speaking.

Umino Ikkaku was standing not far from him. Hearing this rule, he took a breath and couldn’t help but said: “Hokage-sama, isn’t this rule a bit too hard on them?”

“They are still children.” Umino Ikkaku said. He was a chuunin, so he naturally knew that it would take less than ten minutes for a chuunin to fight against a ninja student or even a genin.

The Kage is the leading force in the village, the Jonin is the backbone of the village, and the Chuunin is the backbone.

Genin and ninja students are the basis.

It would be easy for a chuunin to kill a genin, or even a genin team.

Hearing his words, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, “You have to have some confidence in your students.”

“Have faith in them.”

He also knew that this assessment rule was a bit excessive, but this was Yuichi Yuki and Kakashi Hatake.

Not counting the two of them, there was also Uchiha Obito and Sarutobi Asuma.

Uchiha Obito is an Uchiha ninja who possesses two magatama sharingan eyes and has mastered the fire escape ninjutsu and the use of sharingan eyes.

His strength is already that of a chuunin.

As long as you can keep up with actual combat, it will be easy to pass this test.

Even if he has no actual combat experience, as long as he can dodge and delay, it will not be difficult to pass the test.

As for Sarutobi Asuma, although he is the Hokage and does not have a good relationship with his father and son, he still pays close attention to him.

Sarutobi Asuma, who has mastered the fire escape and high flame techniques, and the wind escape chakra mode, also has strength far beyond that of the genin.

These are the two weakest among the four of them.

If it was Yuichi Yuuki and Kakashi Hatake, he could only say that even a jonin would die if he wasn’t careful.

The huge pit outside Konoha was still there.

Whether it was the ninjutsu called Super Whirlpool Rasengan or the ninjutsu called Kirin, they were all forbidden techniques.

Not to mention jonin, even a Kage-level warrior would die if he was attacked accidentally.

On the stage, Yuichi Yuuki and Kakashi Hatake looked at each other, and then said, “I’ll go with Obito, and you with Asuma?”

“Or the four of us go one-on-one.”

As he said that, he looked at Uchiha Obito and Sarutobi Asuma.

Hearing his words, Uchiha Obito looked at the Anbu wearing a spiral mask, and couldn’t help swallowing his saliva, “I’ll pair up with Yuichi.”

“Asuma, how about you and this guy Kakashi?”

Hatake Kakashi glanced at him, and finally set his sights on Sarutobi Asuma.

Feeling the gazes of the three people, Sarutobi Asuma was silent for a moment, then clenched his hands, “I’ll be alone!”

“I want to prove to that old man that I, Asuma, can pass the test even if I rely on myself!”

He naturally understood that Yuichi Yuuki’s proposal was to take care of him and Uchiha Obito, but he chose not to take this help.

Under the gaze of the old man at home, he wanted to pass the test alone to prove that even if he, Sarutobi Asuma, did not rely on the Hokage or his family, he could pass the test in advance and become a Genin!

Hearing his words, Hatake Kakashi nodded, “You and I will fight one-on-one, Obito and Yuichi will team up.”

Uchiha Obito looked at Sarutobi Asuma, hesitant to speak, but finally did not speak.

Although he was a little bit stupid, he also knew the conflict between Sarutobi Asuma and his family.

This was his belief and he could not be dissuaded.

He was also moved by Sarutobi Asuma’s words, and he also wanted to test his own strength.

However, when he saw the Anbu with spiral masks watching the four of them calmly, he still gave up the idea.

Under the subtle influence of Yuichi Yuuki, although he was still careless, he had learned to be safe.

And the double test could also prove his strength, so there was no rush.

Seeing that they seemed to have discussed it, Sarutobi Shinnosuke stepped forward, lowered his voice to avoid his rebellious brother from hearing his voice, and said, “Who will go first?”

“I’ll go first!” Sarutobi Asuma stepped forward directly, “I choose single-player battle!”
