There was a row of neatly arranged wooden stakes, each as thick as a water bucket. They were all cut down from old trees of excellent quality. One could feel their tough texture by flicking one's finger on them.
The training ground was nearly 100 meters long and wide, the ground was covered with yellow soil, and the Anbu were resting under the trees in twos and threes.
"Captain, is it true that they are going to take the Jonin Exam here?" An Anbu took advantage of the break and moved to the captain's side and asked in a low voice.
The rules of the Anbu are very strict, but they are not rigid and inflexible. When performing a task, they must follow the rules. Whoever dares to violate the rules will only have one result, either die or be kicked out of the Anbu.
The daily training will also be relaxed, and ninjas are not soldiers. Ninjas fight in small teams. Proper communication will help strengthen the tacit understanding between each other and can better exert their strength.
"Where did you hear it from? Someone is going to be promoted to Jonin, but I don't know who it is. We will know when they come. "The captain drank water to replenish the water he consumed.
"They're here. Captain, they're here."
At the entrance of the training ground, a man and a woman came in.
"Hey? Why is Shuizen-sama here? Could it be that she's the auditor? " The captain looked at Shizen with surprise. As the Hokage's secretary, Shizen is very busy with her work. How can she take the time to review the Jonin Exam? Unless the person who is going to be promoted to Jonin is very special.
"Captain, is the person next to Shuizen-sama the one who is going to be promoted to Jonin? Isn't he a bit too young? "The Anbu beside him revealed a hint of surprise.
"Shut up and watch. This exam may be an eye-opener for you." The captain held his breath and pulled his subordinates to the shade of the tree and watched the field.
The one next to Shizen was naturally Aoyama. Early in the morning, Aoyama rushed over. On the way, he met Shizen, who was also diligent, and the two came together.
"Lord Aoyama, why do you want to be promoted to Jonin in this way? Can't you level up inside the root? "Shizune and Aoyama were chatting casually, and she voiced her confusion.
Root was run by Danzō like an iron bucket. Naturally, there was a promotion system inside. It was very good to hide Root's strength. Even Tsunade couldn't figure out how many Jonins there were in Root.
"There's no special reason. I haven't seen Sensei yet. I want to talk to him after I become a Jonin." Aoyama shrugged with an indifferent expression.
If he went to Gen's base, he would definitely have to meet Danzō. He might even have to force him to give an answer. Moreover, Qian Yu also said that there was an enemy in Gen who wanted to cause trouble.
At the same time, he also sent a message to Haku and the others, asking them to hurry back to the village and wait for a few days to meet with Haku and Danzō -sensei.
"Today's test will be conducted here. The others should be here soon." Shizune looked around. On the training ground, there were only three Anbu members training. Under the shade of the tree, there was a group of people squatting down, and a dozen or so people were looking over here.
"Sister Shizune, are so many people allowed to watch the Jonin test?" Aoyama was also looking at the surroundings, and he also noticed the Anbu members who wanted to watch the fun.
"Generally speaking, ordinary people are not allowed to watch, but Anbu members are allowed to watch." Shizune explained, and soon after, she joked, "Besides, you should be able to pass today's test. Are you worried that you will make a fool of yourself?"
"Hehe, by the way, who is the person that I will be fighting against?" Aoyama blinked his eyes and remembered.
"I am also not sure. Tsunade-sama said that she will take people from the Anbu. This is also the reason why the test is held here … Oh, the others are here …"
Shizune looked at the entrance with a dull gaze, and a group of people rushed in.
The group was led by Solar Foot and Kurenai. Behind the two of them were four small tails, Hinata, Hanoi, Shino, and Kiba.
"…"
Aoyama opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, she was unable to say anything. In an instant, she felt as if her throat was broken, and she was unable to make any sound.
"Solar Foot -sama, why are you here?" Shizune asked in surprise, and quickly went up to welcome him.
"Hey, hey, captain, isn't that the Hyuga Family's patriarch? Why would such a big shot come here? "
"How would I know? All of you, shut up and watch carefully. Be careful of causing trouble, don't you know that trouble comes from careless talk?"
The Anbu members at the side also began to whisper, but very quickly, they were suppressed by their captain, and they shrunk under the shade of the tree and remained silent.
"I just happen to have some time today, so I might as well come here myself. This kind of opportunity is hard to come by, and I can bring Hanoi to experience the battle between Jonin. I must experience the battle methods other than Gentle Fist." Solar Foot had a warm smile on his face as he spoke to Shizune.
Hanoi let go of her big sister's hand, and ignoring her father who was chatting with her, she walked over to Aoyama with small steps.
"Brother Aoyama, when did you return to the village?" Hanoi asked with a smile.
Aoyama's eyebrows unconsciously curved down, and the sharp aura around his body instantly disappeared, revealing a very warm smile. "I returned a few days ago, and I was preparing to look for you in a few days. Why are you here today?"
"Big sister told me that you are going to be promoted to Jonin, so I went to look for father and begged him to bring me over." Hanoi giggled, she was very happy. Ever since she found out that Aoyama removed her defected ninja status, she was very happy, and even when she was reprimanded by Solar Foot, she didn't care anymore.
The two squeezed together and chatted happily, and the little loli Hanoi's face was flushed red.
Kiba also came over and very insensible greeted, "Yo, Aoyama, long time no see. You are going to be a Jonin now, not bad."
"It's okay, Kiba, aren't you guys already ten types of people? I'm just a little faster, you guys will also become Jonin soon. "Aoyama held Spark tightly, and responded dryly to Kiba.
Hinata and Shino also came over and greeted.
"I'm late, Kurenai, it hasn't started yet, right? I overslept today. " Anko hurriedly rushed in, and before Kurenai came in, she had ordered the Anbu to guard around, so Anko came in unimpeded.
As soon as Anko came in, Aoyama, who was talking to Shino, suddenly shivered, and turned his head in fear, and saw a familiar person.
"Yo, Aoyama, you have become stronger now!"
Anko stretched out her arm and caught Aoyama, strangling him with one hand and pulling his ear with the other hand.
"What's the matter? Aoyama, you little scoundrel, you defected without even saying anything? Your guts are really big! En! "
"I was wrong … Big sister Anko, I was wrong, okay? I won't dare to do it again. " Aoyama had a bitter face, and very cooperatively admitted defeat and begged for forgiveness. He didn't dare to take Anko seriously, otherwise, with Anko's temper, who knows what she would do to him.
Thus, he might as well just admit his mistake straightforwardly, this could also be considered as a lesson learned through blood and tears.
