Hong snorted softly, seeming to be very concerned about it.

"Kakashi, how are you doing there?"

Asuma turned to look at Kakashi sitting beside him, who was holding a book and reading with gusto.

"So-so, everything we can do has been done in the past six months. Next, it's up to them to express themselves freely. If they can't become chuunin, it only means that they haven't grown enough and their usual training is not hard enough."

Kakashi said without raising his head.

"It really looks like your style..."

"To each other. Strictly speaking, the Chuunin Exam is not too difficult. Isn't there a record of one person passing it before?"

Kakashi said intentionally or unintentionally.

"Go through the game alone?"

Hong was startled, and her voice couldn't help but become much louder.

"Hong, you are making too much fuss."

Kakashi said.

"No, Kakashi, you said that someone can pass the Chunin Exam alone? Is this true?"

Hong asked in surprise.

"Ah, it was about several years ago. At that time, I was just the squad leader in ANBU."

Kakashi nodded.

"Do we have such a powerful person in Konoha?"

Hong was a little skeptical.

If such a person really exists in Konoha, why have I never heard of it?

"Because the other party's information was kept confidential, the upper management did not spread the news in a big way. But you should have heard of that person. He is the Weasel who exterminated the clan."

Kakashi raised his head and said.

"!?"

Hong's body shuddered, and a pair of cold scarlet eyes and a taciturn and cold face suddenly appeared in his mind.

"It's him. I knew he took the Chunin Exam, but I didn't expect that he passed it alone. Is this the ability of a genius?"

Not daring to comment on the Uchiha clan's affairs, Kurenai shifted the topic to the other party's abilities.

No matter which aspect you look at, it is undoubtedly an exaggeration for one person to pass the Chunin Examination.

When she took the chunin exam, even if the three of them fought together, it was still very difficult and she almost failed.

"He used to be my subordinate. In terms of ninja talent, he was indeed a terrifying guy. A certain brat in my team still misses him."

Kakashi rubbed his sore temples and sighed.

"Uchiha Sasuke? Not to mention, since the joint chuunin exam is being held this time, I guess that matter can no longer be concealed, right?"

Asuma's eyes narrowed.

It is not only Konoha that bears the name of the Uchiha clan, but also the Kingdom of Demons.

Moreover, the number of Uchiha clan members currently existing in the Oni Kingdom is far beyond what Konoha, which has only one Uchiha remnant, can compare to.

If there is a problem with Uchiha Sasuke, it means that the Sharingan, a blood inheritance limit, will be completely extinct in Konoha.

Whether Konoha still insists that the Uchiha in the village is the true orthodoxy has become meaningless.

"Yes, but Sasuke has noticed something. He seems to enjoy the process of solving the puzzle by himself more than me telling the answer myself. He is a kid who should not be underestimated."

Kakashi said with an exclamation tone.

"You put it that way, I am increasingly looking forward to what results the descendants of Uchiha will achieve in this joint chuunin exam."

"The newcomers of this class should not be underestimated... Well, let's wait and see together."

Kakashi nodded and his thoughts returned to the book.

"Invitation card?"

In a small conference room in the Hokage Building, Hiruzen held a gilded letter in his hand.

On the left and right bottoms of the envelope, the same pattern is painted, which is the family crest of the Hyuga clan.

Obviously, this invitation letter was obviously not made by the Hyuga clan, so there is only one answer left.

The country of ghosts.

Apart from Konoha, only the Kingdom of Demons has extremely pure Hyuga bloodline.

The Byakugan bonus during the war is no longer exclusive to the Konoha family.

"This must be a conspiracy from the Kingdom of Ghosts, right?"

When the consultant went to bed, Xiaochun frowned, and there was a trace of resentment in her eyes.

Another consultant, Mito Monobu, remained silent, thinking about the meaning behind this.

Hiruzen weighed the weight of the invitation and looked directly at the fourth person in the conference room, Hinata Hizashi.

"Rizu, what do you think?"

Apart from him as the Hokage, there were only two advisors in the conference room, as well as Hinata Hizashi, the leader of the Konoha Hyuga clan.

Originally, Danzo Shimura, the leader of the root group, was invited to attend this important high-level short meeting, but the other party declined the invitation.

But he sent his subordinates over and said that he would respect the decision of the Hokage and the advisory group on this matter.

"To be honest, I don't want to go to the Kingdom of Ghosts to discuss anything with a group of traitors who have betrayed the family."

Hizu sighed and answered Hiruzen's question.

"Having said that, if I reject Hinata Ayane's invitation, maybe she will cause some trouble in the future."

Compared with Chiba Shiraishi and Uchiha Ruri, who have always been invisible, Hyuga Ayane is one of the three most active people in the world. In addition, the other party is now in charge of the entire security department of the Demon Country.

The person with the highest exposure.

Since the beginning of the Third Ninja War, the other side has been committed to opposing Konoha and the Hyuga clan, and has made it impossible for Konoha and the Hyuga clan to stand down several times.

Chiba Shiraishi is good at hiding and only appears on important occasions, Uchiha Ruri is disdainful of trivial matters, and Hyuga Ayane prefers to worry about everything, and is also the smallest of the three.

Such a small-minded ninja is still a woman who doesn't like to reason. It is obvious that she has bad intentions when she solemnly invites Nizu to attend the joint chuunin exam.

It doesn't mean in terms of safety, but it will make Nizu lose face in the land of ghosts.

And embarrassing the Hyuga clan means that Konoha, who stands up for Hinata, will also be embarrassed as well.

Neither the Hyuga clan nor those at the top wanted to see this kind of thing.

Encountering this kind of problem, Hiruzen also started to have a headache.

Although refusing will cause some gossip and make Konoha look timid in doing things, it is better than directly embarrassing Hizu in the Kingdom of Demons.

At this time, Hiruzen was thinking about how to reduce losses. Nowadays, the military power of the Kingdom of Demons is extremely terrifying. Although Hiruzen is not afraid, there is no need for a head-on conflict with the Kingdom of Demons.

What the Fire Country and Konoha need now is to protect themselves, maintain good diplomacy with the surrounding small countries, and prevent the power of the Ghost Country from infiltrating.

When the Fire Nation's alliance defense line is established, by that time, even if there is a head-on conflict with the Demon Nation, Konoha will have the confidence to fight. Instead of just swallowing it like this and putting 'peace' first in everything.

"As the Hokage I said, I prefer that you stay in Konoha and ignore Hinata Ayane's invitation...but it is you, Hinata, who makes the decision. If you insist on going, we will do our best to help you."

Hiruzen and Rizu looked directly at each other and said firmly.

"Rizu, has the result of your internal meeting been decided?"

Mito Menyan couldn't help but ask.

Rizu nodded and said: "Yes, within our Hyuga clan, after receiving this invitation letter, we immediately started a family meeting, convening all the elders of the clan and branch families for discussion. Like the three elders,

Most people do not agree with me, the leader of the clan, personally going to the Kingdom of Ghosts."

Hearing Rizu say these words, Hiruzen and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Nowadays, the only person who can stabilize the Hyuga clan is the clan leader, Hizu.

If something unexpected happened to Nizu when he went to the Ghost Country, even the Hokage would have a hard time shouldering this responsibility.

"So, we are planning to adopt another plan internally."

Rizu said this again.

"Another plan?"

Hiruzen and the other three frowned.

"Yes, my second daughter Hanabi will serve as the envoy, replacing me as the clan leader, and go to the Kingdom of Demons to pay a visit."

After Rizu said these words, Hiruzen and the other three couldn't help but light up their eyes.

Xiaochun also started to smile when she went to bed.
