Chapter 22: The Chunin Exam Begins!"

After waiting for about an hour at the entrance to the exam hall, Seishi finally saw the late arrivals Uchiha Qi and Hyuga Tenzou.

"You guys are too slow. The exam is about to start..." Jiraiya looked at the two of them speechlessly.

During this period of time, through Seishi's introduction, they got to know each other to some extent. Although they were not very familiar with each other, they were much closer than the relationships they had in school before.

"I practiced too much and didn't pay attention to the time..." Hyuga Tenzou said apologetically.

Uchiha Qi, on the other hand, looked surprised and glanced at Tsunade and Seishi.

He frowned but didn't say much. He had thought Seishi was one of his kind, but it seemed that he was not.

Women? Women only affect his speed of drawing the sword and his training!

Shaking his head, he believed that he would catch up with Seishi in the future. How could someone who is distracted by external things compare to someone as focused as him?

"It seems that not all the ninjas from other villages are useless... It's going to be interesting now..." Uchiha Qi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he smiled slightly.

After this period of training, his Sharingan had reached the level of two tomoe, and he was only one step away from the three tomoe level.

It's worth mentioning that anyone in the Uchiha clan who has already reached the three tomoe level is the top ninja.

Any three-tomoe Uchiha is individually as strong as a Jonin.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Seishi.

He didn't know the gap between himself and Seishi now.

During this period, he had thoroughly figured out that Seishi's strength was not as simple as it seemed.

The strength he displayed in front of them might not be his full strength.

So even when he reached the stage of the Mangekyo Sharingan, he was not as arrogant as before, thinking that his strength was comparable to Seishi's.

He believed that at least when he awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan, he might be able to be on par with Seishi.

Feeling Uchiha Qi's gaze, other ninja from various villages also looked over at them.

Some people seemed to be intimidated by their strength and quickly looked away after just a glance.

And some people may have been inspired by Uchiha Qi's gaze and boldly looked at Seishi and the others as if they were prey.

Among these people, some of them also aroused Seishi's interest.

There was a ninja in the Sand Village with extremely heavy dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept for several days.

His gaze at Seishi and the others revealed a hint of brutality and greed.

But the most noticeable thing about him was the chakra emanating from his body, giving Seishi a sense of darkness and foreboding.

"Interesting... Is he the Jinchuriki of the Sand Village?"

Seishi thought to himself.

Looking at his appearance, it reminded Seishi of a poor child with a gourd on his back and the character "love" on his forehead in the future.

In addition to him, there was also a ninja in the Mist Village who caught Seishi's attention.

A tall and fat man with unique patterns on the edges of his face, carrying a long object wrapped in white cloth behind his back.

Looking at the gaze on Chiba Seishi, he responded with a smile.

But this smile didn't seem very friendly.

...

"Leaf Village's ninja? They look weak..."

Fuguki Suikazan evaluated Chiba Seishi.

Chiba Seishi appeared to be clean and white, with a smile on his face and no killing intent.

In fact, he immediately thought that this person was a loser in battle.

Just then, another person who came to take the exam with him whispered, "Leaf Village's ninja doesn't look very impressive either... especially that little pretty boy we just saw. He didn't look like he had any fighting power..."

Fuguki Suikazan shook his head. "Don't underestimate Leaf Village's ninja..."

"The person who was standing next to him just now was from Leaf Village's two major clans, the Uchiha Clan and the Hyuga Clan... Ninjas from these two clans generally don't have weak abilities... You know, quite a few of our Mist Village ninja have died at the hands of people from these two clans..."

After hearing his words, the person who spoke earlier had a slight smirk on his face.

"I wonder how long they'll last against you... I just hope they don't die too quickly when the time comes..."

After saying this, he looked enviously at the white cloth-wrapped thing behind the Fuguki Suikazan.

"The Mizukage actually gave you the Great Sword: Samehada, I can hardly imagine who will be your opponent in this exam..."

Thinking about this, he shuddered again...

I don't know how many people will die from this sword in this Chunin exam.
