****************
"Students, pay attention to not dirty the examination room!"
One of the teachers responsible for observing spoke unhappily at the disgusting sight.
Neji was sitting not far from him, and the vomit was really disgusting.
Seeing the miserable state of the two, Colt covered his mouth and snickered.
Hinata was the closest to Colt and could see his little movements clearly. "Colt..."
Her little hand pulled the corner of her clothes, and her face was full of pity.
Colt was instantly alarmed and understood what Hinata meant.
"Don't worry, I just taught him a lesson this time. I won't hurt him"
Hinata nodded cutely and smiled.
For Neji, Hinata still felt very guilty, after all, his father had died because of her...
Due to Colt's troubles, many people's cheating methods were disrupted.
The examiners couldn't close their eyes and pretend to be confused. They had a job to do.
Soon, three people reached the cheating limit and were kicked out together with their teams.
Kankuro used a puppet to pretend to be a proctor and went to the toilet. That way he could cheat.
No one knew what the bottom line of cheating was.
The puppet paint was almost peeling, but the other proctors also cooperated with Kankuro's performance.
After all, such a big flaw in that puppet can be missed easily.
The most flamboyant was Sasuke. Using his Sharingan.
Colt found that he was copying answers, and there was a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.
It was a real show.
There was a way left out for the unfortunate genins, which was a mirror on the ceiling.
As long as you had control over this mirror, you could adjust the angle and copy the correct answers.
However, after a while, everyone was very understanding, often using it for a while before letting the others have a turn.
It's a pity that there was a troublemaker in the examination room.
Colt used the water stains on the ground to condense small water needles.
They were not very powerful, but they were enough to destroy a mirror.
When the thousand or so needles were shot out, the mirror on the ceiling shattered.
The hearts of the genins broke along with it.
"F**k!"
"We've got a traitor in our midst!"
Countless people roared inwardly, but they had to maintain calm on the surface.
The corners of Ibiki's eyes twitched, and his expression management was almost out of control.
He still didn't know who was doing this, but he could guess.
'This kid is relentless.'
He didn't answer the questions himself, instead he was sabotaging the chances of the others.
'It has to be you, Kakashi's disciple.' He knew that by process of elimination.
Fortunately, there wasn't much time left in the one-hour exam. Otherwise, this kid would annoy him for some more time.
"Stop!"
Ibiki stopped everyone's movements, and seeing that there were still quite a few candidates left, he was a little dissatisfied.
Colt was equally dissatisfied.
He had worked so hard; how could so many people still pass?
"Now for the final test, I will issue the tenth question."
Ibiki's voice was low.
"Before that though, there is a rule that needs to be told to you. After listening, you will
decide whether you should answer the tenth question."
The genins didn't understand where he was going with this.
"Come on, we have already come this far. Will we still give up now?"
One of them said impatiently, and many people agreed.
They had written all nine difficult questions; why would they be afraid of this last one?
"Very good," Ibiki showed a strange smile.
"If the person who chooses to answer the tenth question doesn't answer correctly, they will permanently lose their qualification to become a Chunin. Permanently!"
As his voice fell, the whole classroom exploded.
"What!"
"That can't be possible!"
Some people didn't believe it, some were afraid, and many people directly withdrew from this
exam out of fear.
The noise came one after another, and many teammates had different opinions.
If one person didn't answer correctly, the entire team would suffer.
After arguing for a long time, there was no result.
Naruto raised his hand tremblingly, causing Sasuke and Sakura's hearts to jump out in fear.
'Is he going to give up?'
This wasn't Naruto's temperament.
Sure enough, Naruto didn't let them down. He slammed the table and started to speak.
"I want to participate! Even if I have to be a Genin for the rest of my life, I'll become Hokage
as a Genin! This is my, Uzumaki Naruto, ninja way!"
This time, many people who were shaken in the past had their resolve strengthened.
Colt sighed a little; as expected of a loudmouth, just like that he turned the hearts of some people who were about to give up.
However, if it wasn't for Kakashi's grace at the end, Naruto would have been a Genin for the rest of his life.
Just when Ibiki was surprised and about to announce the tenth question, Colt spoke quietly.
"Yeah, even if you don't answer it, it doesn't matter. At worst it's just being a Genin for the rest of your life. The pay can't be that bad, right?"
"However, there's also nothing wrong with quitting directly. Isn't there always a next time?"
The situation reversed on the spot.
Many people's firm determination was shaken by these words.
"Yeah, that's true, no need to risk it..."
Some teams started to talk...
With that, five teams dropped out of the examination room one after another.
Shikamaru looked at Colt speechlessly.
He didn't believe that Colt hadn't seen through Ibiki's strategy, instead he probably was just trying to confuse the others out of a mischievous mentality.
But wasn't he afraid of affecting his own teammates?
Even Ibiki was startled, but he announced the content of the tenth question according to the
established procedure.
After a bit of explaining, he smiled and congratulated everyone present for passing the exam.
"Congrats"
Just when he wanted to say something more, two kunai directly smashed through the window
and nailed a banner to the sides of the blackboard.
A beautiful woman with a hot body appeared!
"I am the examiner for your second exam, Mitarashi Anko!"
Looking at Anko, who was exuding an aura of sexiness, Colt couldn't understand why she
became obese after more than ten years.
The environment of Konoha really nurtures people...
Sasuke and Sakura had a black line on their foreheads; no matter how you looked at it, this was
a female version of Naruto.
"Didn't you come too early?" Ibiki whispered.
"Is it early? I just couldn't wait." Anko didn't care; her red pupils looked at the candidates
with interest.
"Was your test that good? There are only so many candidates left."
She had thought it would be necessary to reach the second stage before the candidates could
be eliminated on a large scale.
Anko counted for a long time but couldn't determine how many people were left.
Ibiki said helplessly, "There are 64 people left."
"Hahahaha! Not bad, but at the end of the second stage, only half of those will be left atNôv(el)B\\jnn
most!"
Anko laughed heartily, but what she said made the examinees shudder.
The first exam was already very cruel, so looking at the second exam, it should be even more
difficult.
"Okay! At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, show up at the designated place on time. If you're
late, you'll lose the right to take the exam."
With a big wave of her hand, she jumped out of the window and disappeared.
Not even bothering with the banner on the blackboard.
As expected of a crazy woman. After the exam, Colt left with Hinata and Ino, and the other candidates also left one after
another.
Ibiki finally couldn't hold back his inner curiosity and came to check Colt's paper.
He wanted to know why Colt had the guts to do such things and didn't even change his
expression after the tenth question came out.
But when he saw the test paper, he couldn't hold back anymore.
"Tsk!"
Candidate's name: The examiner's father.
Contents of the test paper: Empty.
"Damn it!"
"This kid... ugh."
Ibiki had a tick mark on his head.
But he knew that this year's Chunin exam was going to be interesting.
