Chapter 42 Devastating Victory
Chapter 42 Devastating Victory
The first written test was very easy for Genma, whose knowledge base was vast, comparable to that of a Jonin.
The fact that Obito Uchiha finished the exam and handed in his paper in half an hour made him very envious, as he was biting his pen and racking his brains.
"Sigh, I should have studied harder."
Obito Uchiha sighed inwardly, filled with regret.
After leaving the examination hall, Genma thought for a moment and then created a clone to activate Wood Release Chakra Mode.
He knew that ordinary sensory ninjutsu would definitely not be able to find White Zetsu.
But the Wood Release Chakra Mode might be different.
After all, White Zetsu is in a vegetative state!
After activating Wood Release Chakra Mode, Genma's clone immediately used a transformation technique to turn into a crow and flew to the vicinity of the Uchiha clan's settlement area.
He did not join the Uchiha clan. The Sharingan can see chakra, and his transformation technique can hide his chakra from ordinary sensory ninjutsu, but it can never hide from eye techniques like the Sharingan and Byakugan that can directly see chakra.
It must be admitted that White Zetsu's transformation technique is indeed very powerful, even the Byakugan cannot see through it.
The crow landed on a large tree, its eyes fixed on the Uchiha clan's territory, its senses spreading out as it looked towards it.
Xuanma sensed things very carefully, trying to achieve the most precise perception possible.
However, his chakra was almost depleted, and he still couldn't sense the presence of White Zetsu.
Perhaps they've already hidden themselves, or perhaps they haven't been monitoring the Uchiha clan at all.
Genma, who had already returned home, was slightly disappointed after receiving feedback on his clone's memories.
"If Madara Uchiha really didn't monitor the Uchiha clan, then it's probably just a coincidence that Obito Uchiha became Madara's pawn."
Following this line of thought, Genma couldn't help but wonder: "If it weren't for Obito Uchiha, would Madara Uchiha have specifically sought out an Uchiha as a replacement for himself after his death to monitor and guide Nagato in carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan?"
"But since the Rinnegan is in Nagato, he should be the first choice. Otherwise, the Rinnegan should be transplanted to a suitable Uchiha."
"The Battle of Kannabi Bridge was truly a major turning point in destiny."
Xuanma sighed inwardly.
Unfortunately, the Battle of Kannabi Bridge was something he could hardly change definitively.
Or, even if he replaced Kakashi's team to carry out the battle at Kannabi Bridge, it was impossible to determine whether Kakashi, Obito Uchiha, and the others would repeat the original timeline in another battle.
"However, although Kakashi didn't graduate early or become a Chunin at age 6, his strength is definitely much greater than it was at the same time in the original timeline."
Putting aside his many thoughts, Xuanma stopped pondering and continued to absorb knowledge of sealing techniques.
In the entire ninja system, sealing techniques are very, very special.
It could even be said that it is one of the few ninja systems capable of dealing with the Otsutsuki clan.
I need to learn this; I'll modify the settings a lot from now on!
three days later.
The second team battle of the Chunin Exams has begun.
This is completely different from the Chunin Exams of Naruto's era; the team battles are more like arena battles.
It was held in the training field, and there were no spectators. The teams drew lots and took turns fighting according to a set time.
At 2 p.m., outside the training ground, Xuanma and the others saw their opponents.
"What a coincidence!"
Genma raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly. Their opponents were none other than Sarutobi Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, and Tobitake Dragonfly, whose head was wrapped in bandages and whose eyes seemed to be covered if not looked closely, with a ninja headband around his neck.
They were all classmates in the past.
They greeted each other and then entered the examination room together.
At the examiner's instruction, the two sides lined up in formation, about ten meters apart.
On Genma's side, Yamashiro Aoba was at the very front, with Genma and Shizune standing side by side behind him.
On the opposite side, Sarutobi Asuma was at the front, with Kurenai Yuhi and Tonbo Hitake side by side, all in a triangular formation.
Seeing that both sides were ready, the examiner raised his hand and then waved the triangular flag down.
Start!
Yamashiro Aoba immediately formed hand seals, and Sarutobi Asuma charged forward. Hitake Tonbo raised his hand and shot out a shuriken to cover Sarutobi Asuma, and then also pounced out to attack.
Kurenai Yuhi formed hand seals, and her figure quickly disappeared from Genma and the others' sight.
It's an illusion!
Genma raised his hand and shot out his shuriken, intercepting the flying bamboo dragonfly's shuriken, while simultaneously activating an illusion.
Magical - Spider Binding!
Asuma Sarutobi, who was charging forward, was struck by the technique and suddenly fell forward like a log.
"Oh no, it's the Golden Binding Technique."
Sarutobi Asuma realized he had been hit by the illusion and immediately tried to break free, but he was unable to do so.
The flying bamboo dragonfly behind was startled, not expecting that Sarutobi Asuma would be defeated in a single move.
Just as he was about to raise his hand to form a hand seal to break the illusion, Yamashiro Aoba's Great Fireball Technique had already arrived with a whoosh.
He had no choice but to use a teleportation technique to dodge.
After Genma defeated Sarutobi Asuma with a single illusion, he flashed behind Shizune and grabbed Kurenai Yuhi by the neck, who was sneaking over under the cover of an illusion.
boom!
The ground exploded, and Kurenai was pinned to the ground by Genma. Her mind was buzzing, her whole body was limp, and she could no longer muster any strength.
The examiner witnessed this scene and his eyelids twitched involuntarily: This guy really has no chivalry at all!
Little did he know that Xuanma had already reserved 80% of his power.
If they went all out, Xi Rihong's neck would break.
Genma loosened his grip on the confused Kurenai and turned to look at Aoba Yamashiro, who was already locked in a fierce battle with Tobitake Dragonfly.
In a physical duel, the skill gap is small, and it will be difficult to determine a winner in a short time.
Xuanma immediately made his move, using his Lightning Release: Instantaneous Movement technique to easily capture the Flying Bamboo Dragonfly.
"Shuomao Class wins!"
The examiner waved the flag and announced.
Shizune quickly went to wake Kurenai Yuhi, and Genma broke the illusion for Asuma Sarutobi.
Getting up from the ground, Sarutobi Asuma blushed slightly: "Genma, I didn't expect your genjutsu to be even more powerful than Kurenai Yuhi's."
Being defeated in one move by someone from the same period was a first for him.
Genma smiled and said, "It's because you don't know me well enough."
He fell into his genjutsu without any warning, and even the Jonin Hatake Sakumo couldn't break free.
It's important to know that while Sakumo Hatake may not be a master of illusion magic, his ability to dispel it is extremely strong.
Sarutobi Asuma shook his head with a wry smile: "The difference in strength between us is just too great."
Kurenai walked over and, instead of blaming Genma for his earlier brutality, exclaimed in shock, "Genma, your strength is too great; it's completely beyond what someone your age should have!"
Shizune explained from the side, "Genma has mastered Lady Tsunade's monstrous strength."
Kurenai Yuhi suddenly realized, and then said, "I hope we can fight again in the third match and exchange some illusion techniques."
Xuanma nodded in agreement: "If there's an opportunity, no problem."
The second match ended just like that.
The two teams left, giving the space to the others.
As soon as I went outside, I saw Kakashi and Rin Nohara waiting for me.
"Kakashi, Rin~"
Genma greeted them with a smile, then after thinking for a moment, said to Yamashiro Aoba and the others, "You guys go first, I'll watch Kakashi and the others fight."
After he said that, both Shizune and Yamashiro Aoba chose to stay and watch the game.
