章節 22: Chapter 22: The Luxurious Spectator Group
In terms of overall strength, Uchiha Akira had indeed reached the level of a Chunin.
However, after simulating so many times, most of his focus had been on mastering the Body Flicker Technique.
As a result, while his chakra didn't increase much, his proficiency in ninjutsu and combat experience became extremely refined.
With an additional two years of training, he managed to slightly compensate for his lack of chakra!
After finishing his simulation and feeling the increase in his chakra, Uchiha Akira had breakfast and then set out with his grandfather.
"Where are you going?" Uchiha Akira asked, noticing the determined look in his grandfather's eyes.
"My dear grandson is aiming to secure a chance to take the Chunin Exam in the Hidden Cloud Village. As your grandfather, of course, I have to be there to support you!" the old man said, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Well, if his grandfather wanted to come and watch, there was no reason to refuse.
"What about you, Keiko?" Akira asked, turning to Keiko, who had also come along.
"Master Akira, your opponent today is one of the top-ranked Genin in the village, whose overall strength is already at the Chunin level. I'll stay close by, just in case," Keiko replied gently, like an elder sister from next door.
"You don't have much faith in me, do you?" Akira teased.
"You misunderstand, Master Akira. I'm just being cautious," Keiko responded, not willing to admit her concern.
Well, in his life simulations, Akira had been through a lot with Keiko, even surviving together twice.
In fact, his two-tomoe Sharingan had evolved during one of those simulations when he witnessed Keiko's death.
If she wanted to stay close and watch, so be it.
As they walked through the Uchiha clan grounds, they ran into Shisui. It was worth noting that Shisui had been talking to Itachi, and now they both decided to join the group.
In no time, the five of them walked down the main street of Konoha, attracting countless curious glances.
The Uchiha clan elder, Shisui of the Body Flicker, Itachi, and now Uchiha Akira, who was being hailed as the Uchiha clan's top prodigy.
With such a lineup, it was impossible not to draw attention!
After some casual conversation, Itachi, who happened to be free today, also decided to join them. After all, this was going to be a Chunin-level battle, and Itachi was curious to see the strength of this so-called "top prodigy" of the Uchiha clan.
"This group is a bit over the top, isn't it?" Akira thought to himself as he glanced around at the impressive assembly of Uchiha members.
…
Upon reaching the battleground outside the Hokage building, Akira realized he had underestimated the situation.
It wasn't just the Uchiha clan that was taking this seriously. The Third Hokage, Danzo Shimura, Kakashi Hatake, and even the heads of the Hyuga, Inuzuka, Yamanaka, and Nara clans had all gathered!
Clearly, Uchiha Akira's reputation as a genius had spread far and wide.
A six-year-old trying to represent Konoha in the Chunin Exams at the Hidden Cloud Village?
Add to that the fact that he had been training under Shisui for several months.
Naturally, everyone wanted to see how much progress Uchiha Akira had made in such a short time!
Uchiha Akira had always known that his reputation as a prodigy was growing, but he hadn't quite grasped the full extent of it until now.
After all, he was still just a Genin, albeit with strength on par with a Chunin.
But to think that so many of Konoha's high-ranking officials would personally come to watch?
No wonder that after his Sharingan evolved to two tomoe, the pressure from Konoha's higher-ups increased, and he ended up getting hunted down faster during the simulations!
…
Uchiha Akira inwardly complained as the group arrived at the battleground. After a brief exchange of words, the duel began!
Uchiha Akira and Inuzuka Hana stood several meters apart, preparing to face off.
While Akira was alone, Inuzuka Hana had her battle partner by her side—a ninja dog.
Clearing his mind of distractions, Akira's expression grew serious as he focused on Inuzuka Hana, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Then, his eyes turned blood-red, and two tomoe appeared in each eye.
It was the two-tomoe Sharingan!
Though the title of "prodigy" made Konoha pay more attention to him, which increased the intensity of the hunts during his rogue ninja simulations, there were also plenty of advantages to it!
Since he had decided to seize Inuzuka Hana's spot in the Chunin Exam, he knew that the cleaner and more decisive his victory, the more convincing it would be.
Seeing Akira's two-tomoe Sharingan, Inuzuka Hana's nerves tightened.
He might be only six years old, but the reputation of the Sharingan was feared throughout the ninja world.
And this was the two-tomoe Sharingan, a power that stood out even among Chunin.
Beast Imitation Technique: Four Legs Technique!
Inuzuka Hana crouched down, while her ninja dog transformed into her likeness.
Uchiha Akira formed hand seals, and three shadow clones appeared beside him...
