Chapter 8 Graduation with perfect marks
"It's nerve-wracking. I don't know how long it will take to eat so many fish." Shikamaru bent down and fiddled with the black fish in the fish basket.
"Naruto must have been working hard at the river for a long time to catch these fish." Shikaku rubbed the scar on his face and said, "I also caught fish back then, and I didn't catch any fish for a long time."
"This kid will definitely be rejected if I invite him to a meal. I don't know if he likes the thank you gift."
"Don't worry about this kind of thing, Naruto is just like that." Shikamaru said lazily, "Dad, you will put pressure on people."
"What are you talking about? Damn it!"
"Naruto is used to being alone. Although sometimes it seems that he doesn't care about many things, he will only feel awkward and sad when being invited to a family dinner." Shikamaru stood up and said.
Nara Shikaku didn't say anything for a long time. Thinking of Naruto's life experience, he fell into a long silence.
The next day, the Ninja School Graduation Examination begins.
The school entrance is much busier than usual. Most of them are parents accompanying their children to take graduation exams, and they gather in a bustling manner at the school entrance.
The venue is usually cleared before the exam begins to prevent parents from making too much noise and affecting the normal progress of the exam.
Naruto came to school early and sat on the swing under the big green tree. He didn't jump down until he saw Hinata passing by.
He did not wear the orange jacket today, but an ordinary black short-sleeved shirt. The cotton jacket was too hot, and he still did not have the courage to wear it outside.
"Hinata, morning."
"Morning, Naruto...Naruto-kun."
Hinata was startled, her face instantly turned red, she avoided Naruto's gaze, and responded in a low voice with some stuttering.
"This is for you." Naruto took out a small gadget from behind.
It was a small wood carving, which vividly carved the Q version of Hinata. The wood carving was only the size of three fingers and looked extremely cute.
"Did Naruto-kun make it himself?" Hinata blushed, but she could no longer take her eyes away from the small wooden sculpture.
"Well, I happen to know some, so... I'll give it to you."
He didn't know a thing. Before time travel, he had been learning wood carving from his master for as long as he could remember. He had never stopped during the winter and summer vacations for fifteen years.
Hinata's face turned even redder. She took the wooden sculpture and thanked her quietly.
"I remember Hinata's grades have always been very good, right? Then you have to work hard for the exam." After leaving a sentence, Naruto waved and turned to leave.
【Kyuubi’s approval 2.2%】
The system is indeed not that easy to fool, a wooden sculpture can make Hinata blush, but the system seems to be aware of Naruto's behavior of increasing points.
The system made a fair judgment on Naruto's delusional behavior of taking advantage of loopholes. Although the repeated plot was effective for Hinata, it was not effective for the system.
"Sure enough, you have to work hard." Naruto said secretly.
Hinata at this period is still very cute, but she is more introverted than in the animation. She wears a one-piece sportswear, is small and has short hair that reaches her ears.
Although she speaks in a softer voice, she is also very polite to others. She has full wife attributes and is a perfect young lady in all aspects.
To be honest, Naruto couldn't understand how He De could be liked by such a girl. What did Hinata want?
The graduation exam is conducted separately in a classroom. Before that, the students who are referred will be gathered in a large classroom to wait for their names to be called.
"The exam begins!"
Iruka's serious voice sounded, and the school's electronic bell also rang at the same time.
The exam time was very short, and they only selected one subject from the Three Body Techniques for the exam. Naruto's class happened to be scheduled for the first exam, and several people had finished the exam in ten minutes.
Not many people can get forehead protection, maybe one-third. And this is just a graduation exam. If you want to become a real genin, you have to pass the test of the teacher who leads the team.
"Haruno Sakura!"
"Arrived!"
Naruto caught a glimpse of a flash of pink running towards the next classroom like the wind. He happened to be sitting at the door and could easily hear Iruka's voice.
"Clone Technique."
"Yes, Teacher Iruka!"
"Very good, excellent."
Haruno Sakura's excited voice came: "Thank you, Mr. Iruka."
"Clone Technique?" Naruto murmured, recalling it carefully and found that it was not difficult.
The qualifying standard is to have one clone with almost no flaws. If you have two clones, it is an excellent level. If it is a perfect score, then the conditions are very harsh.
For example, as Naruto showed in the Clone Technique review exam yesterday, it was difficult to distinguish between the real and fake clones. There were only two people in the class with perfect scores, Sasuke and Naruto.
Sasuke was called by name. Before leaving the classroom door, he turned to glance at Naruto who was sitting by the door. Naruto raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything.
"Uzumaki Naruto!"
After about half an hour, Naruto's name was finally called.
Somewhat unexpectedly, Naruto drew the Substitution Technique. This is a relatively difficult ninjutsu. Although it is also one of the basic ninjutsu, it is a step higher in difficulty than the Transformation Technique and the Clone Technique.
Mainly because of the speed of seal formation, one is fast and the other is accurate in the assessment standards of the substitute technique. Fastness is a test of the speed of seal formation, and accuracy is a test of the perfection of the technique.
It’s not difficult to be qualified if you work hard, and you can achieve excellence even if you work hard.
"Eh? Someone got the Substitute Technique!" The class shouted loudly, and those who had passed the exam and those who had not passed the exam all gathered around the front and back doors of the assessment classroom.
"What kind of bad luck did Naruto have? He actually got the Substitution Technique that is rare in thousands of years?" Shikamaru muttered, frowning slightly.
Normally, he would have been gloating over his misfortune, because Naruto's strength made no difference no matter which subject he got, he would still fail.
But after eating the fish caught by Naruto yesterday, Shikamaru suddenly felt a sense of indebtedness. He secretly thought for a while that no matter how funny it was, he couldn't laugh.
This is no joke, it will deduct merit.
"Hahaha! I hope that guy doesn't conjure up something weird!" Ino laughed happily at the side.
While laughing, she patted Shikamaru on the back and said.
"Do you still remember that guy's substitute technique last time? He turned out to be half a man and half a wooden pile. Hahaha, it made me laugh!"
Shikamaru coughed violently, hiding the urge to laugh.
Just when he was about to slap himself and prepare to go home and confess, a chorus of exclamations sounded out, and everyone present took a breath.
At the same time, Iruka's slightly excited voice came.
"Naruto Uzumaki, perfect score in Substitution Technique!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone outside the classroom once again exclaimed.
"Full marks! Can humans do this?"
"I think the Substitute Technique is the most troublesome Ninjutsu for me!"
"It's not difficult to be qualified, but it's very difficult to be excellent. So far, only Sasuke-kun can be excellent in the Substitution Technique, right?"
