Chapter 20: Chapter 20 Home
As long as one can enter the main field, they can be noticed by the Third Hokage.
Forget about getting first place. Just being able to enter the arena and be noticed by Sarutobi Hiruzen is already an incomparable honor in the eyes of these students.
Amid the excitement of the entire third division, Ishigami left here and headed for the home court!
Kushina wanted to give up her own competition and go to the home team, but she had already participated and even if she had to admit defeat in every game, she had to wait until the end to decide the complete ranking.
So Kushina stood in the crowd, watching Ishigami leave with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
The noise in the third field was earth-shaking.
Even the first, second, fourth places in other directions, as well as the home team, were all looking at them.
In the first minute.
Minato Namikaze, who was about to take part in the fourth match, looked towards the direction of the noisy third field in the distance with a little surprise.
"It seems like someone has already won, and he's even faster than me."
After his eyes flickered for a moment, he smiled nonchalantly.
It doesn't matter who enters first, because the ranking will still be decided by fighting at home anyway.
He will not give up the first place to anyone.
There was a hint of relaxed confidence in Minato Namikaze's eyes.
On the other side, at home.
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had already completed the arrangements and was sitting on the main stage waiting, smiled when he heard the noise.
"It seems that an outstanding child has appeared. Who could it be?"
"It must be the genius boy Minato Namikaze who surpassed Orochimaru!"
Behind Sarutobi Hiruzen stood Jiraiya, who was now an elite jonin and one of the future three ninjas.
In the Ninja School, Minato Namikaze is the undisputed number one in every aspect, and he almost always crushes the second place. He is even better than the young Orochimaru!
Under such circumstances, Minato Namikaze's reputation as a genius had naturally already attracted the attention of Konoha's top leaders.
Listening to Jiraiya's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled slightly and nodded.
I thought to myself that if nothing unexpected happened, it must be the child of Minato Namikaze.
However, at this moment, from another direction, Orochimaru walked over quietly with an inexplicable arc on the corner of his mouth.
"Tsk tsk tsk... that's not necessarily true."
"Why, Orochimaru, you're not convinced, you're not as good as Minato at your age!"
Jiraiya snorted and looked at Orochimaru.
Orochimaru was too lazy to pay attention to Jiraiya, so he shrugged and said calmly: "That's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?"
"See for yourself!"
Orochimaru gestured slightly in one direction.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya both looked over in surprise.
Then, both of them were surprised.
Because they all saw the first winner who walked towards the home court.
It was a young man with silver-white hair.
It's not Minato Namikaze, but Ishigami!
"This is impossible, there is someone faster than Minato!"
Jiraiya almost exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.
The first winner...is not Minato Namikaze? !
Orochimaru, who was standing by, showed a slightly evil expression and said, "What's impossible..."
"That's interesting. I thought there was only one genius in this era, Minato Namikaze."
Tsunade walked over from behind lazily, her beautiful eyes flashing with a strange light, and said: "He is the child who is going to fight Uchiha Han in a life-and-death duel."
"Yes, it's him." Orochimaru nodded.
Jiraiya, who was most optimistic about Minato Namikaze, immediately showed an unhappy expression when he saw that the topic had all shifted to Ishigami.
"So what if he comes here?
He can't possibly beat Minato Namikaze, Minato's talent is even stronger than yours, Orochimaru!"
"Hehehe…"
Orochimaru listened to Jiraiya's words and showed a slightly evil smile. He did not get angry, but said calmly: "With his special bloodline limit and extraordinary intelligence in the face of danger, I think that child may be better than Minato Namikaze in the future."
When these words were spoken, everyone present was immediately surprised.
Although most people don't believe that Ishigami is really better than a genius like Minato Namikaze, but from Orochimaru's confident words, it can be seen that Ishigami's talent should not be underestimated!
Even Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment.
Of course he had heard about Ishigami's affairs.
Faced with a dead end, he chose a life-and-death duel with Uchiha Han to break the impasse, and gained three months, but it was still a dead end no matter how he looked at it.
But if you think about it carefully, in that situation, Ishigami should have made the most correct choice!
That child is indeed not a simple one.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes flickered.
If Ishigami really has such talent, then such a good seedling cannot be ruined in the hands of Uchiha.
In that case, let's see how he performs next!
Under the slightly expectant gaze of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Ishigami finally walked to the home court and stopped quietly below waiting.
While waiting, Ishigami was also quietly examining the main venue of this practical ranking assessment.
The home venue is much more formal than the branch venue.
The entire main venue is located in an examination hall similar to the Chunin Exam in the original work.
At the very top, Sarutobi Hiruzen, wearing the Hokage's divine robe, just sat there quietly.
Behind and beside Sarutobi Hiruzen stood three figures that Ishigami was very familiar with.
Looking up, there was a barely perceptible glimmer in Ishigami's eyes.
Orochimaru, Tsunade, Jiraiya!
I didn't expect that the future three ninjas of Konoha would all be here.
But now it seems that the three ninjas are much younger than in the original work, and the three of them are all wearing formal jonin uniforms.
Seeing so many familiar figures at once, Ishigami's eyes were also filled with a ripple.
When Ishigami was looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen and others at the highest point, Sarutobi Hiruzen and others were of course also looking at him.
Sometimes, you can see a lot from a person's eyes.
Being too calm would instead arouse some suspicion, but Ishigami's calmness also revealed a hint of excitement in his eyes, showing that there was no mental flaw at all.
"The eyes are very good."
Tsunade looked at Ishigami and then commented softly.
Having come this far as the temporary first place, facing the Hokage and these elite jonin, he was able to remain so calm and suppress his excitement.
This is the mentality of a qualified ninja.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also nodded. Although Ishigami was from another village, he was very young.
There is no need to question Ishigami's identity. In Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, Ishigami is no different from other children born in Konoha.
In his opinion, Ishigami was unable to practice ninjutsu before, and his brilliance was obscured, but now after awakening his bloodline limit, he began to shine with the brilliance of a genius.
Just as everyone was looking at Ishigami, the second winner was finally born. This time there was no surprise, it was Minato Namikaze!
When he arrived at his home court, Minato Namikaze also had a calm expression on his face.
Jiraiya, who was originally a little uninterested, became excited again.
"Look, Minato has the same look in his eyes! No matter how good that Ishigami is, he can never compare to Minato."
"Haha, let's wait and see."
Orochimaru had a slightly evil smile on his face, then he leaned gently against the wall behind him and stopped talking.
