Chapter 32
After a brief silence.
Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe, took a puff of smoke, and glanced at Cloud's Jonin and Mist's Fuguki Suikazan, and said:
"Anyway, this Chunin exam is over."
Yuhi Shinku stood up and restrained the shock in his heart as he glanced sideways at Fuguki, and said: "Yes, there is only a single person left so there will no longer be a third test."
They believed that Hidden Mist probably wanted to kill all the other teams in this round, and finish the Chunin exam before the third test, to show the terror of Hidden Mist Village. But their intention was prevented by a single individual, and almost caused their whole team to be almost wiped out.
This kind of result was unexpected for everyone
Yuhi Shinku looked at the screen, and saw Feng making his way towards the central observation tower with a slight smile.
Regardless...
Excellent job. Son of White Fang!
...
Outside the central watchtower.
Feng rushed all the way to the entrance, and walked with his two scrolls. Standing at the entrance waiting for him was the proctor of the second test, Yuhi Shinku.
"Congratulations on passing the second test of the Chunin exam..."
"It should also be the last test."
Feng looked at Yuhi Shinku and said, "The Mist and Cloud seemed to have killed all the other teams. I have all their scrolls here."
Yuhi Shinku already knew about this and was not surprised. But still, after seeing Feng take out the other scrolls, his expression couldn't help but darken.
Only one person passed the second test of the Chunin exam.
This is the first time this has ever happened ever since their establishment!
Unexpectedly, Feng, who has always been hiding under Kakashi's limelight. Possessed such a god-like abilities, whether it was his strength, mentality or self-control, he was better than Kakashi.
"Yes, you're correct, there is no more third test."
After sighing in his heart, Yuhi Shinku nodded at Feng and said, "Come with me, Lord Hokage is waiting for you."
Sure enough, Sarutobi Hiruzen is here.
Feng was not surprised, he nodded and followed Yuhi Shinku, they soon arrived at the central hall on the second floor of the observation tower, Sarutobi Hiruzen was standing in the middle of the hall.
Feng's eyes flashed, as he was surprised that Orochimaru was standing next to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Is Orochimaru one of the examiners? No, that shouldn't be the case.."
A thought flashed in Feng's mind for a moment that he was in charge of this Chunin examination. But after careful deliberation, based on his personality, it was impossible for Orochimaru to be one of the examiners.
Feng did not continue to think too much about it and saluted towards Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Lord Hokage."
While Feng saluted towards Hiruzen.
He also felt two unkind gazes.
Those two with hostile and cold eyes, naturally came from Fuguki from Hidden Mist, and the Jonin from Hidden Cloud.
"..."
After Feng raised his head, he briefly glanced at Fuguki for a moment and then returned to Sarutobi Hiruzen, showing no fear towards them.
It is still indeed difficult for him to win against a Jonin, especially one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen like Fuguki, whose level of strength is close to that of a Kage.
But this is Konoha.
Not only are there Konoha experts here, but Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen are also present. They could only look at him coldly at most, but to dare kill him?...they don't have the guts.
As for the future...
If he really met them on the battlefield, then he might not be weaker than these two at that time based on his level of improvement. It may also be possible that he already surpassed Jonin Class and stepped into the Kage level at that time.
"Congratulations on passing your Chunin examination."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Feng and smiled kindly, "You performed very well. From today onwards, you are officially one of Konoha's Ninja's. Remember our ninja's vocation!"
"Yes."
Feng nodded his head to answer.
Orochimaru stood at the side while looking at Feng with a smile, and said, "I received some assistance from your father before while he was still alive...Do you know who I am?"
Noticing that Orochimaru seemed to be a little interested in him. Feng's thoughts flashed quickly, and he greeted Orochimaru: "You should be one of the legendary Sannins, Lord Orochimaru. "
Orochimaru smiled, and said: "It's better since you already know who I am. At your current level, it's difficult for a regular shinobi to be your instructor so... How about being my disciple? "
Hearing these words, Feng's eyes flashed suddenly.
This situation seems a bit troublesome.
How can he decline this?
Sarutobi Hiruzen was also a little surprised by Orochimaru's proposal, his brows frowned but after pondering, he finally made a decision and said:
"In that case, Feng, you can be Orochimaru's disciple."
Feng: "???"
What the hell?!
I haven't even spoken yet!
What is this situation!? He was trying hard not to be recruited in Danzo's organization, but then who would have thought that he would end up being Orochimaru's disciple instead?
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Becoming a disciple of Orochimaru is undoubtedly a dangerous thing, because he will for sure have a cursed mark placed on him.
But still having said that, in this current situation, he might have a chance to take advantage of it. One, after becoming Orochimaru's disciple he doesn't need to worry about Danzo making a move on him. The second is, from Orochimaru, he might be able to obtain a lot more techniques that he wanted to know.
Thinking of this, Feng sighed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen already made his decision, so there is no need for him to further think about it. He can also vaguely guess why Sarutobi Hiruzen made such a decision.
Sarutobi HIruzen is not yet fully certain on who to choose as the Fourth Hokage. Although Orochimaru's character is perilous. Namikaze Minato is still too young, his merits and achievements are still not as good as the current Orochimaru.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen favors Minato in his heart, he cannot express his attitude formally during this period.
If he refuses to hand over Feng to Orochimaru and then assign Kakashi as a disciple of Namikaze Minato, let alone the village's criticism, Orochimaru will also definitely be very dissatisfied.
Now that the current situation in the Ninja World is very tense.
Stability must be maintained within the village.
"..."
After hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen, Orochimaru showed a slight smile. He wanted to determine Sarutobi's attitude to him and the possibility of him to be the next Hokage, so he proposed to take Feng as his disciple, but he indeed, liked Feng and his talents.
To become Hokage, he must also have successors. One person alone cannot handle all the things in the village. To maintain stability, he would also need some assistance.
Sarutobi Hiruzen already handed over the talented Kakashi to Namikaze Minato for him to train. And the deep reason behind this was that Namikaze Minato was included in the candidates for the next Hokage.
If he wanted to take Feng under his banner but is then prevented by Sarutobi then that just signifies that Sarutobi has already rejected the idea of him being the next Hokage, but now, in this situation he still couldn't seem to figure out Sarutobi's intentions.
'I just don't know who you will choose in the end... Sensei'
Orochimaru looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and murmured in his heart.
