Chương 49: Obito is Always Late
Shintaro took the recommendation letter and found Kurenai and Asuma, who were eagerly anticipating the Chunin Exams.
The three of them went to the registration office together and completed their registration.
Soon, the day of the Chunin Exams arrived.
The first part of the Chunin Exam was a written test. The content of the test covered basic ninja knowledge and theoretical knowledge related to ninja missions.
The difficulty level was moderate, so it posed no challenge for Shintaro, Kurenai, and Asuma.
But it was like a sacred text to Uchiha Obito.
Yes, Team 7 was also taking the Chunin Exam.
Because the Chunin Exam required a team of three, Kakashi, who had already become a Chunin, was forced to take the Chunin Exam again.
Shintaro could see Obito scratching his head in the examination room.
Shintaro felt that Obito, a fellow clan member, was still immature. He had officially become a ninja and was still attending ninja school.
Even Guy, who had a similar reputation to Obito in ninja school, had become quite strong, and his perseverance and hardworking character had earned him impressive training achievements.
In the examination room, Kakashi led the way in answering the questions, confidently submitted his paper, and walked out of the room.
At this moment, Shintaro, who had checked his paper multiple times, also submitted it, which made Obito, who was scratching his head, feel even more stressed.
'Kakashi and Shintaro finished writing so quickly and didn't help me.'
Obito complained in his heart that these two geniuses didn't bother to assist a beginner like him.
Fortunately, a paper ball accurately landed on the floor in front of him. He picked it up excitedly and found that it was thrown by Rin.
Obito was very touched and once again realized how kind Rin was.

In the afternoon after the written test, the results were announced.
Shintaro, Kurenai, and Asuma all passed the test without incident.
Rin and Kakashi also passed, while Obito's results were at the bottom, and he barely made the cut.
"Great!" Obito jumped for joy.
Kakashi leaned against the wall, arms crossed, and mocked, "You're qualified as a candidate. You live up to your name, Obito."
"What did you say?!" Obito immediately shouted excitedly.
Rin stepped in to mediate, "Alright, stop arguing."
The three members of Team 8 standing nearby were already used to Team 7's antics.
Shintaro remarked that without Rin, this team would fall apart sooner or later.
"There's no time to celebrate now. Those who passed the test need to head to the designated classroom immediately, and the briefing for the second exam will start soon."
A serious-looking ninja approached everyone to announce the briefing for the second exam.
He was the proctor for the second exam.
"The second exam will be held in three days. This time, it will test practical skills. You'll need to use all the taijutsu and ninjutsu you've learned to qualify."
"This exam is a team-based competition."
Upon hearing the news, Obito and Kakashi from Team 7 started bickering again.
"Kakashi, don't hold me back!"
"I'll return the same words to you."
The two were about to fight again.
Rin persuaded again, "You two stop fighting."
Seeing Obito still standing, Rin glared at him, causing Obito to shrink back immediately.
"Why are their relations still like this?" Asuma asked Shintaro.
Shintaro shrugged and said, "I don't know, I'm used to it."
After speaking, he looked towards Obito.
"This guy is really immature."
❀❀❀
Three days later.
The exam arrived as scheduled.
This exam was held in Konoha's 44th Training Ground, also known as the Forest of Death.
A banner reading "Second Stage of the Chunin Exam" was hung in an open space within the Forest of Death. Surrounding the open space were towering ancient trees.
Teams competed against each other in pairs, and promotion was determined based on the overall team performance.
The opponent drawn by Team 8 was no ordinary team. It was a team personally trained by Orochimaru, one of the legendary Sannin.
Mitarashi Anko, Hyuga Tetsu, and Akado Manabu.
Anko was a close friend of Kurenai, and it was a setup that the two were placed in groups to decide the outcome.
In the examination room, two groups of people stood facing each other.
Anko held a kunai in her hand and warned loudly, "Kurenai, I won't hold back, you better be careful."
Kurenai replied seriously, "I won't hold back either, so be careful yourself."
Shintaro observed his opponents with his Six Eyes. Anko was a Chunin, her strength was similar to Kurenai's, but not as good as Asuma's.
Hyuga Tetsu and Anko were on the same level, while Akado Manabu was slightly weaker than Anko.
'Orochimaru's students are not very strong.'
Shintaro evaluated inwardly, but he didn't know that among the three, only Anko was acknowledged by Orochimaru, and the other two were merely subordinates.
From beginning to end, Shintaro never included himself in the evaluation system.
Because his strength had already surpassed his peers.
The battle between the two sides was about to begin.
Kurenai versus Anko, Shintaro versus Tetsu, and Asuma versus Manabu.
Several people fought together, and no one used large-scale ninjutsu for fear of accidental injuries.
Anko was wary of genjutsu and fought with Kurenai, making it difficult for Kurenai to find a weakness, and the battle reached a stalemate.
Shintaro easily suppressed Tetsu from the beginning.
Asuma also overpowered Manabu.
Soon, Tetsu was expelled by Shintaro's [Konoha Senpu], crushed by his physical skills.
Asuma then swung a heavy punch and hit Manabu's abdomen, knocking him out of the fight.
Seeing this, Anko wanted to counter and use the ninjutsu taught by Orochimaru.
"[Sen'ei Jashu]"
Anko summoned long snakes intertwined at both ends to attack Kurenai.
Kurenai wasn't a pushover either. She quickly unleashed [Rasengan] and destroyed the two snakes with one strike.
At the same time, Shintaro was already behind Anko with a kunai in his hand. He wrapped his arm around Anko's neck and pressed the kunai to her fair skin.
"Kurenai, you've become so strong." Anko raised her hands to admit defeat and praised at the same time.
Kurenai smiled slightly and looked at Shintaro behind Anko, "Thanks for your help, Shintaro."
Shintaro then released his hand and said, "It's mainly because of your serious attitude."
Seeing the two of them together like a couple, Anko joked, "Your relationship has developed quite quickly since you graduated."
Kurenai's face turned slightly red, and she shouted in embarrassment, "Anko!"
Anko laughed heartily.
The result of this battle was clear; all members of Team 8 were promoted.
The cameras on the field were connected to the monitoring room.
In the monitoring room, Sarutobi, wearing the Hokage robe and hat, praised, "Shikaku, your teaching is indeed effective. Both Uchiha Shintaro and Yuhi Kurenai have become excellent ninjas, and my incompetent son has also been trained well. Not bad."
Standing behind Hokage, Shikaku humbly said, "It's all their own efforts, and my teaching is only a small part."
Sarutobi said nothing more on the matter but asked another proctor, Minato, standing behind him, "Is Hatake Kakashi also participating?"
"Yes, he's next." Minato replied with a smile.
"Oh, I'm looking forward to it." Hiruzen said with a smile.
At this moment, Shintaro, who had completed the exam, had already left the examination room.
It was already evening, and there was still some time before dinner, so the three of them went home and had a celebration party in the evening.
Shintaro was walking down the street when he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
He saw Obito running down the street, clearly rushing to the examination room.
However, when Obito saw an old man carrying a heavy suitcase on the road, he stopped without hesitation and chose to help the old man carry his suitcase to the hospital.
"It's clearly already late, and Obito might be late again." Shintaro shook his head slightly, "But Obito is very kind. Such a character is rare in the Uchiha Clan and even in Konoha."
Shintaro suddenly thought of the principle of the Sharingan.
For a kind-hearted person, if he experiences an accident, the change in his emotional center might become more intense.
Shintaro suddenly foresaw Obito's potential future and the possibility of a tragic fate.
"If possible, it would be better if you don't awaken the Sharingan."
He sighed inwardly.
