Chapter 45 Refuse to Bully Children
Kakashi could certainly see that there were many allusions to real-world ninja figures in "Kim Man Paradise", but he didn't pay any attention to them.
Isn't it also in Jiraiya's "The Tale of Rooted Ninja"?
Kakashi's current worry is that he may never see the next volume published.
He's been waiting for the love paradise since he was eighteen, and it still hasn't appeared, even though Jiraiya has been writing diligently and constantly gathering material from his travels.
What about Bai Mo's powerful paradise?
Will Bai Mo still have the same leisurely and carefree attitude he had during his mission in the Snow Country?
This may become a swan song.
A few days later, Kakashi and a group of Jonin arrived at the Hokage's office and were informed of the list of other forces participating in the Chunin Exams.
Of the five great ninja villages, only the Kazekage Rasa of Sunagakure had told them in advance that they were preparing to participate; the rest were all small ninja villages.
The rest were just spectators, there to watch the excitement.
Now, both Kirigakure, which has been largely forgotten for a long time, and Iwagakure, which has recently caused a great uproar due to its changes, are going to participate.
This made Hiruzen Sarutobi somewhat worried.
This is not the Chunin Exams of Boruto. The forces of the three major ninja villages, along with their Kage, have gathered in Konoha. It's far too dangerous.
Previously, with only the Kazekage present, Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't too worried.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was also aware of the situation in Sunagakure.
But Iwagakure and Kirigakure are different.
One has just undergone transformation, the other is shrouded in mystery.
"Hmm? The Third Generation Lords are participating too?"
Kakashi saw a familiar name on the visitor list.
"Um."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded without saying anything more.
After Kakashi brought back information about the Death Possession Blood last time, Hiruzen Sarutobi told Kakashi not to make a fuss to avoid causing panic.
Whether it's true or not, the other party must have a goal other than murder if they make this request.
Their best course of action right now is to remain unchanged and wait for all changes to come.
Now that the opponent is about to appear in the Chunin Exams, the target might be exposed.
The other Jonin were unaware of this matter and were quite confused about the person Kakashi mentioned.
Who is it?
Might Guy was the first to step forward, following Kakashi's gaze to look at the list.
There were only two visitors to Amegakure Village—the village chief, Bai Mo.
"I don't know him."
Matt Kai scratched his head, uttered three words, and returned to his original position.
Although Might Guy's team participated in the Snow Country mission last time, they stayed in the shadows the whole time. In addition, Might Guy has a mysterious difficulty recognizing people, and he can forget people he has met or fought with, let alone Bai Mo.
The other Jonin paid no attention to the two Amegakure members on the list, instead looking at the densely packed list below.
"Why are there so many people in Kirigakure and Iwagakure?"
Kurenai Yuhi's eyes widened in disbelief.
"The reason given by the Mizukage and Tsuchikage is that they lost too many combatants in the past, and the new generation of ninjas have not experienced much combat. They want to come to the Chunin Exams to gain experience, and it doesn't matter whether they pass or not."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a puff of his pipe and offered an explanation.
"The Hidden Mist Village probably refers to the Blood Mist, and the Hidden Stone Village refers to the Third Shinobi World War and the great battle with the Third Raikage... The reasoning makes sense, but can it really be true?"
"What if so many ninjas are released into the village and they unite to riot?"
Asma also took a drag of his cigarette and raised a question.
"I will have the Anbu monitor and analyze the ninjas from both countries who come to the Land of Fire in advance. If they are really not very strong, then it means that the Mizukage and Tsuchikage have no hostility."
As for whether the Mizukage and Tsuchikage will find out and cause dissatisfaction, we'll apologize to them later.
Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped his fingers on the table and quickly came up with a solution.
There are a large number of genin from Kirigakure and Iwagakure who are going to take the Chunin Exams. If these are all really genin and dare to cause a riot in Konoha, it is easy for them to suffer heavy casualties.
While Jonin are key to a ninja village and Chunin are the backbone, Genin are not necessarily cannon fodder.
Most genin have the talent to grow into chunin. Too many genin deaths and injuries mean that the village's fighting strength will be weakened for a period of time.
But Hiruzen Sarutobi dared not gamble.
So he decided to play it safe.
Even if the Anbu concludes that there is nothing unusual, he still needs to be wary of the Mizukage and Tsuchikage having any other ideas.
Hiruzen Sarutobi decided to send the Anbu to find Jiraiya and Tsunade, who were outside, and tell them about the crisis facing the village.
If they can find him, Jiraiya should come back; it's hard to say about Tsunade.
All I can say is that I'll try my best.
Hiruzen Sarutobi dismissed the Jonin.
He started smoking in the Hokage's office.
His only consolation now is that even if the Tsuchikage and Mizukage have some kind of conspiracy, the Kazekage won't get involved.
According to intelligence, Iwagakure and Kirigakure formed an alliance by joining something called the Economic Mutual Alliance.
But Sunagakure did not.
A few days later.
Bai Mo and Konan, who was wearing a straw hat and had come in the name of the village chief of Amegakure, arrived in Konoha.
The people from Iwagakure and Kirigakure had already arrived earlier.
The inns in Konoha were instantly packed with people.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's ANBU reported that those who came were indeed genin, and even the weaker ones among them.
That's right.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was definitely overthinking things.
The suggestion from Bai Mo was that Kirigakure and Iwagakure participate in the Chunin Exams on a large scale.
This was to prevent the recurrence of the humorous ninjas like those trained by Hozuki Gengetsu during the Fourth Shinobi World War, who could only throw kunai and shuriken, and then begged the enemy to pick them up.
That is, why didn't Bai Mo just tell these old hands about the Otsutsuki clan?
Sometimes, people won't believe you just because you tell the truth.
"It's really lively."
Konan looked at the scene in Konoha and sighed.
"Don't worry, our place will become lively again in the future."
Bai Mo chuckled softly.
A weak nation caught in the middle becomes a tragic buffer zone for a powerful nation.
A powerful nation in the middle—that is the center of the world where all roads lead to Rome.
"Aren't you really going to go and have some fun? If you want teammates, I can call Hydrangea and the others to be your teammates."
Konan's gaze swept over the squads of young and energetic genin, and suddenly a slight smile appeared on her lips as she asked Bai Mo.
Is it fun to bully children?
"You're not that much older than them, are you?"
"..."
It really is.
Not to mention the older genin from Kirigakure and Iwagakure, and Kabuto Yakushi, a spy in his early twenties.
Temari from Sunagakure was already fifteen years old, and she would officially become a Chunin at the age of seventeen during the next Chunin Exams.
So age really isn't a problem.
The Chunin Exams aren't some kind of "Cultivation Selection" or "Luo Tian Grand Ceremony," and they don't have age restrictions.
"Forget it, I don't have Orochimaru's thick skin to bully a few genin with Kage-level strength."
Bai Mo refused again.
