In an ordinary Japanese-style room, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura knelt on either side of the tea table.
"Hiruzen, you've received the intelligence too, haven't you? In the Death Forest during the second ninja exam, over a thousand square meters of land collapsed, and the damage was extremely severe, almost reaching the level of a battle between elite Jonin."
Hiruzen casually picked up the tea, took a sip, and listened quietly as Danzo finished speaking, but did not respond.
"This is just the Chunin Exams. A group of Genin couldn't possibly cause such a commotion. No bodies were found at the scene, and none of the students are missing,"
"But the problem is, the Uchiha clan happens to be in charge of managing the examination hall. What are they fighting against? What exactly is the Uchiha clan up to? We must investigate the Uchiha clan's conspiracy."
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally couldn't take it anymore. What was going on with Danzo?
It's like having paranoia.
To be honest, Hiruzen Sarutobi neither trusted nor disliked the Uchiha clan.
He just wanted to ensure the peace and stability of the village.
He believed he could sacrifice anything to protect the village.
Just like when the Third Shinobi World War ended, he wanted to end the war as soon as possible.
He went so far as to exempt Iwagakure (Hidden Stone Village) in the Land of Earth from all war reparations, which ultimately led to his resignation.
"This doesn't prove anything, Danzo. I will investigate the matter. If you have nothing else to do, you can go back."
Faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi's indifferent attitude, Danzo Shimura was truly enraged. This guy was always like this, and one day Konoha would pay the price for his indecisiveness.
"Why are you always so naive? Hiruzen, the Uchiha clan's rebellious intentions are obvious; I've received concrete intelligence."
"The Uchiha clan will be holding another meeting soon; they're preparing for a rebellion. We should strike first and wipe out the Uchiha completely!"
Danzo slammed his hand on the table and spoke loudly to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"I knew it all along. A few days ago, Fugaku Uchiha came to me and said that the clan was going to hold a clan meeting to worship the shikigami. The fact that he consulted me shows that he is upright and honest."
"Besides, I can't refuse a sacrificial ceremony."
Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, feeling somewhat uneasy.
"What kind of sacrifice? That's pure nonsense. If..."
Danzo Shimura didn't say anything more. He looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, and the two fell silent.
The two had no idea what happened at the Uchiha gathering.
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke kindly, he was certainly worried about the Uchiha clan.
At that moment, a thought simultaneously arose in both of their minds.
They need a spy who can infiltrate the Uchiha clan.
Hiruzen Sarutobi took out his pipe and took a deep drag.
Suddenly, a scene appeared before his eyes.
That was the scene of him personally bestowing Konoha headbands upon three genin.
One girl left a particularly deep impression on him; the way she looked at the forehead protector was so intense, and that strong will of fire moved even him.
That girl is: Uchiha Naraku!
Although the Uchiha clan's headquarters was destroyed during the Nine-Tails' attack, resulting in the loss of a great deal of data.
However, judging from the girl's behavior, he may have inherited both the Senju and Uchiha bloodlines.
She is also the personal disciple of her eldest son, Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
Hiruzen Sarutobi believed that if a ninja was needed to infiltrate the Uchiha clan to gather intelligence, this girl would be the best candidate.
Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi revealed a slight smile.
...
The entire room fell silent.
All the examinees, including the Chunin maintaining order at the scene and even Raido Namiashi, were looking at Senju Chama standing in front.
What kind of monsters are these guys? Out of 36 teams, you managed to get 12 scrolls.
(P.S.: There was a typo in the previous chapter; I forgot to count the scrolls they had in their own hands when I said they took out six at the end.)
What does this mean?
Even if you remove their own scroll, their team eliminated nearly a third of the teams in the entire exam.
How old are these three children? Is Konoha about to produce another Kage-level or higher power?
He glanced at the exam list and then asked:
"Your name is Senju Chama?"
"Yes, teacher."
Senju Chama enjoyed the gasps of amazement from the audience, forcibly suppressing the smug expression that was gradually becoming uncontrollable.
"Very good, truly worthy of being a ninja from the Senju clan."
"You got 100 points. Go back and prepare."
Raido then looked at Itachi Uchiha and Naraku Uchiha below the stage.
Are there two more Uchiha clans? No wonder the two great clans were able to create Konoha by joining forces back then.
What an amazing family.
Unfortunately, I am just an ordinary person, and getting to this point is pretty much the end.
When Senju Chama returned to the group, the two sleazy guys next to him couldn't hold back this time.
"You're a Senju clan ninja? Good heavens, it's all our fault for not recognizing you! If we meet on the field later, you must go easy on us!"
The spiky-haired boy didn't act arrogant this time, and instead adopted a humble and submissive demeanor.
"Of course, of course!"
As for Senju Chama, he was completely out of control at this point.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Naraku and Itachi, who were standing to the side, sighed in silence.
It doesn't matter if this fool is more trouble than he's worth. Anyway, with the two of them, no matter how well the other side prepares, they have no chance of winning.
Soon, all the teams handed in their scrolls.
The results of the second round of ninja exams were also confirmed.
In the end, only three teams managed to collect all three scrolls: Heaven, Earth, and Man.
Fortunately, that's how it is.
Uzuki Yugao's team also qualified for the next round with a shorter time.
"Alright, send the teams that failed back. The teams that passed, rest for an hour, and then proceed to the next round of testing immediately."
After finishing speaking, Bingzu Raito walked to a bench and sat down, no longer saying anything.
The losers left dejectedly, while those who remained anxiously awaited the upcoming third round of exams.
Suddenly, the doors of the central tower opened, and eight or nine Konoha Jonin wearing Jonin vests filed in.
Among them was Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was swaying back and forth with a cigarette in his mouth.
"Oh, my lovely apprentices, I knew you would be fine."
Sarutobi Shinnosuke greeted his adorable apprentices with a smile.
When Itachi and the other two saw Shinnosuke arrive, they smiled and greeted their teacher.
An hour passed quietly as the group talked.
The same approach also announced the official start of the next round of exams.
"The exam is very simple; it's an individual competition. After two rounds, the remaining nine people will be the final winners."
"I hereby announce that the first match of the first round will be between Uchiha Itachi and Rokuma Yuta!"
Uchiha Itachi slowly stepped out of the line, and the one in question was none other than the spiky-haired younger brother of the sleazy duo.
He walked out of the line with a humiliated expression, and gave Itachi a smile that looked more like a grimace.
