In the end, out of the 84 people present, 36 were eliminated in this written exam, nearly half.
As for the remaining 48, they were notified to rest for the night, with the second exam taking place the next day.
After the exam, Kushina rushed out of the classroom as if fleeing for her life. She was too ashamed to stay any longer.
She had embarrassed herself big time just now.
Nawaki and Shibi glanced at each other, and then Nawaki clutched his stomach and laughed maniacally.
"Aren't you afraid Kushina will see you like this?"
Seeing Nawaki's exaggerated reaction, Shibi said teasingly. However, right after he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and he became reticent again.
"Didn't she leave? Don't worry, she won't know unless you tell her. No, let me laugh a little longer, I can't hold it back—Hahahaha."
Nawaki didn't notice the change in Shibi's expression at all and continued to mock wildly.
"Sen-ju-Na-wa-ki! Go to hell!"
Kushina's furious voice came, and then a punch sent Nawaki flying.
She had originally felt bad about abandoning her teammates, so she brazenly ran back. But upon hearing Nawaki's reckless mockery, she couldn't help but give him a punch.
"You won't die if you don't court death." Shibi silently recited a classic quote in his heart.
After discussing some issues with Shibi, Kushina went home huffing and puffing, ignoring that damn Nawaki Senju.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw her boyfriend's playful look and couldn't help blushing. Minato probably knew about today's events.
"You know everything?"
Kushina asked embarrassedly, her face red.
"Haha, of course I know. How could I not? Right now, everyone outside is talking about Konoha's biggest scandal, candidates beating up proctors, and other such topics."
Minato laughed heartily. He was also stunned by Kushina's fierce performance. But after confirming the look in her eyes, his little Nana was just that cute.
"You're annoying! Even you are making fun of me, Minato."
Hearing Minato laugh out loud, Kushina couldn't help but run into his arms to protest.
"Alright, alright, stop acting spoiled. Tomorrow's exam is at Training Ground 44, also known as the Forest of Death. You'll have to spend five days there."
Minato told Kushina the content of the second exam as notified from above.
Hmm, the same exam as during the Konoha Crush plan in the original story.
"Is that so? Hee hee, wilderness survival. I haven't really tried that. I'll make sure to experience it properly during this exam."
Hearing this, Kushina felt it was very fresh and immediately couldn't wait to try it.
"I wonder if Shibi can cook. Otherwise, eating will be a problem for five days."
Seeing Kushina's enthusiastic look, Minato didn't want to discourage her, but they had to face this problem.
"Uh..."
Kushina's eager heart suddenly cooled. Cooking... that was truly a difficult problem.
She looked at Minato pitifully, with an expression that said, "I can warm the bed, I can act cute, please take care of me."
"Alright, alright, I really can't do anything with you. I'll deliver breakfast, lunch, and dinner to you."
What could Minato do? She was his girlfriend; he had to spoil her even with tears in his eyes.
"Yay! I knew Minato was the best! Mwah!"
She said, giving Minato a peck on the cheek.
Having engaged in special exercises with Mikoto, how could Minato be satisfied with just a kiss on the cheek from Kushina?
He immediately pulled Kushina close and pressed his lips against her small mouth, completely ignoring her slight resistance.
"Minato is the worst! I hate you!"
Kushina, having lost her first kiss, dropped a sentence and ran away covering her face.
Yes, despite all the hugging and kissing on the cheek before, this was the first time Kushina and Minato had kissed on the lips.
Early the next morning, Kushina yawned as she left home. The loss of her first kiss yesterday had been lingering in her mind and wouldn't go away.
After seeing Kushina leave, Minato immediately pulled Mikoto into a blissful life. Although it was only a short five days, it was enough for release.
At Training Ground 44, the Forest of Death, they found many people had arrived. Finding Nawaki and Shibi, the three sat together waiting for the proctor.
After all the Genin who passed the first exam had gathered, Shinku Yuhi made his appearance.
After reading out the rules, he asked everyone to consider carefully and sign the consent form. Only after signing the consent form could they receive one of the Heaven or Earth scrolls.
Having come this far, no one chose to back down. All 48 people, 16 teams, signed the consent forms. A total of 8 pairs of Heaven and Earth scrolls were distributed.
When the time was about right, a group of proctors led the 16 teams to 16 different entrances of the Forest of Death, Training Ground 44.
When the time struck the hour, 48 ninjas rushed into the Forest of Death like wild horses off the rein.
"From yesterday's investigation, that Kushina is a relative of Princess Tsunade, one of Konoha's Sannin. That's why she's so arrogant. She is our primary target. If we can capture her alive, capture her alive. If not, kill her. If her relative dies, it's enough to give the Konoha higher-ups a headache, not to mention this Kushina is said to be a genius. Three years ago, she graduated first in her class."
Time was tight, and no matter how much information there was, it couldn't be investigated in a short time. Being able to find out this much in just one night was already very good.
"So, Lord Hirono, is our main target this time that girl?"
The Jonin beside him asked.
"Yes. We'll split up. Any Konoha ninja you encounter on the way can be killed directly. As for the small ninja villages, you can let them go. Remember to disguise well and plant evidence on those small ninja villages. Now—scatter!"
Hirono quickly went over the requirements again and then issued the order to disperse.
"Yes."
"Whoosh whoosh!"
After responding, the two Jonin immediately split up.
"Heh heh, Konoha, this time I'll make you experience the pain of heavy losses."
A look of hatred appeared on Hirono's face. In the team that attacked the Land of Whirlpools, his own younger brother was present. But now he was dead; his brother wasn't among the few survivors.
That was why he was so active—to avenge his brother.
