Chapter 113: Sometimes Konoha Plays a Sad Role

The streets of Konoha.

The Suna ninja team who had come to take the Chunin exam suddenly stopped.

Baki’s eyes widened as he looked at Uehara, who was standing on the side of the street, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Uehara’s appearance had changed a bit, but Baki could still recognize his appearance from the outline of Uehara’s face. The image of that incredible young man had been carved into his mind when he killed the Fourth Kazekage, almost leading to the Sunagakure collapse.

“It’s been a long time, Baki-san.”

Uehara slowly walked towards Baki and whispered, “What should be said can be said, and what should not be said cannot be said. Otherwise, I might not let you go this time. You and that Jinchuriki boy.”

Baki’s body was trembling slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, “You.. .what were you doing in Konoha?”

“I’m here to take the Chunin exam, of course.”

Uehara passed Baki and walked in front of Gaara. Looking at the fierce red-haired boy, he touched his hair.

Kankuro’s face suddenly changed, fearing that Gaara would rampage here. He and his sister started to stop him in panic, “STOP!”

Over the past four years, Gaara’s temper had become more and more gloomy.

Even if Kankuro and Temari were relatives of Gaara, they were still afraid of their brother out of fear that Gaara might kill them.

But Gaara did not move at all.

The yellow sand gradually leaked from the gourd behind Gaara and slowly appeared to block Uehara’s hand.

Bang!

Uehara scattered the yellow sand and landed on Gaara’s body.

Uehara gently slapped the scattered yellow sand on Gaara’s body and whispered, “Little guy, if you’re here to take the Chunin exam too, then we were opponents. I hope you don’t run too fast this time… “

Gaara raised his head with a gloomy expression. While staring into Uehara’s eyes, he said coldly, “Don’t touch me with your dirty hands!”

“Then why don’t you just kill me now?”

Uehara held Gaara’s head and smiled lightly, “You know that you are weak and can not defeat me, right?”

“Sooner or later, I will kill you!”

Gaara gritted his teeth.

“Then you have to be careful.”

Uehara patted Gaara on the head and continued with a smile, “Killing is allowed during the Chunin exam, be careful from now on, Gaara!”

“…”

Gaara looked at Uehara, leaving with a gloomy face.

Although Gaara had become more bloodthirsty and cruel, he still understood his own strength.

Even the Ichibi, who had attacked with all his strength, was strung up and beaten by Uehara, not to mention his own lacking strength.

The Chunin exam had not started yet, but he had already been defeated.

“Is that guy a ninja from the Amegakure?”

Kankuro looked at Uehara’s departing back with a displeased face and was about to untie the puppet behind him but was stopped by Baki with a wave of his hand.

Temari’s expression was also a bit solemn, “That guy was too arrogant. Is his strength also as overbearing?”

“That bastard…”

Gaara’s body gradually began to tremble, and the veins on his face showed up little by little, and his eyes gradually revealed a madness, “He’s very… very strong!”

A look of worry appeared on Baki’s face. He shook his head and said, “You guys go to the hotel first. I have to discuss something with others and report to Chiyo-sama.”

Unexpectedly, this Chunin exam managed to attract a ninja like Uehara to take part. The people in the Konohagakure, have they gone crazy?

A character who could kill the Fourth Kazekage was invited to take the Chunin exam?

It couldn’t be more absurd!

However, when Baki reported to Chiyo and Ebizo in Sanagakure, Ebizo thought nothing was wrong with this matter. They would still prioritize their plans for the Chunin exam.

As for the possible massacre that that guy named Uehara Naraku might cause during the Chunin Exam, Ebizo knew very well that Konoha would never allow that to happen. If it did happen, it would turn the Amegakure and Konohagakure into enemies.

In addition to Baki, a Konoha ninja also discovered Uehara.

In fact, apart from him, no one gave the guy named Uehara Naraku sent from Amegakure to take the Chunin exam a second look.

It was Team 7’s instructor, Hatake Kakashi.

Ichiraku Ramen.

Uehara was eating very cheerfully.

Uehara was in an excellent mood right now. There were a huge number of missions in Konoha, and they were all really easy to complete. Even eating a bowl of ramen had rewards.

If Kakashi were not here, he would be even happier.

Kakashi sat next to Uehara, holding a glass of water, and asked aloud, “So you were a ninja from Amegakure… That guy Obito hid in the Land of Rain after the Ninja War ended, right?”

They had met before in the Kirigakure.

At that time, Kakashi learned from Uehara that Obito had been hiding in a small ninja village, competing with Uehara for the successor to the village leader.

But Kakashi didn’t expect Uchiha Obito to have hidden in the Amegakure, under the command of the ninja demigod Hanzo.

“He defected after his identity was revealed.”

Uehara put down the bowl, took the chopsticks and slowly picked up the ramen in the bowl, and whispered, “I don’t know anything about what happened later. Kakashi-san didn’t even tell me that your Konoha S-class missing-nin was such a big deal.”

“Uh… we don’t need to mention that.”

Kakashi frowned, squeezed the cup in his hand, and turned to talk about another thing, “I met two people on one of my missions…”

When he said these words, Kakashi fixed his eyes firmly on Uehara’s movement, and his voice gradually became a little serious, “But I saw them obey your order last time…”

Kakashi was talking about Mangetsu and Zabuza.

Obviously, in the Land of Waves mission, those two people had caused a lot of trouble to him and Team 7. If it weren’t for lightning ninjutsu restraining Mangetsu hydrification, he was afraid that Team 7 would’ve stayed in the Land of Waves forever.

“They are not our Ame Ninja!”

Uehara shook his head and said with a sullen expression, “You should ask your S-rank missing-nin, ask Uchiha Obito about their actions?”

“Did they take refuge with Obito?”

Kakashi almost smashed the glass. He probably realized that from Uehara’s words, causing him to lose his temper.

“Well, Konoha’s Uchiha Obito was really good.”

Uehara turned his head to look at Kakashi, “Thanks to that Uchiha Obito, our losses became very heavy and destroyed the Amegakure’s many years of hard work.”

“…”

Kakashi’s expression became a little embarrassed, and he was roughly aware of what he was talking about, so he forcibly changed the topic, “The two children you abducted to Amegakure back then, have they joined the Amegakure?”

“Kimimaro and Haku were not Kiri ninjas. They were orphans in the Land of Water.”

Uehara shook his head. After explaining seriously, he looked at Kakashi a little sarcastically and said, “Uchiha Obito must be your Konoha’s spy. After all, if our Amegakure became stronger, Konoha’s situation would not be good. Now he’s caused us heavy losses. Your Konoha council must be delighted, right?”

“How could that be true? Konohagakure and Amegakure have a peace agreement.”

Kakashi’s eyes were subtle, but he suddenly thought of something, stared at the face of Uehara, and said, “Your purpose in taking this Chunin exam… is it to promote the strength of the Amegakure?”

Kakashi had seen the strength of Uehara with his own eyes. When this guy was only twelve years old, he killed a group of ninja from the Land of Water, like slaughtering chickens.

From the power of Uehara displayed there, there was no need for him to take the Chunin exam.

“Yes.”

Uehara took this opportunity to explain his reasons for taking the Chunin exam, “The losses caused by that guy Uchiha Obito were too great, and the situation in our village is not very good. Hanzo-sama has begun to worry about our neighboring countries.

Since graduating, I have been the secret weapon prepared for an arms race like the Chunin exam, and now I need to participate in these little children’s games. “

Listening to Uehara’s words, Kakashi became a little confused.

A feeling of frustration emerged spontaneously, and Kakashi couldn’t help but lament the difficulty of living in small and medium-sized Ninja Villages.

If Uehara were one of Konoha’s ninjas, there would have been no need to prepare for the Chunin exam, and he would surely be able to become an Anbu team captain.

This issue is, if Uehara took this Chunin exam, the exam would be quite dangerous, and Kakashi now wanted to stop Team 7 from participating.

Kakashi sighed and said, “If you participate, the little kids in my team don’t need to participate, lest they be hit too much… I originally wanted them to experience the Chunin exam.”

“Uh!”

Uehara almost spits out a mouthful of water. If Team 7 did not take the Chunin exam, what would he do about those side missions?

Uehara’s strength had stagnated for a while. He was waiting to harvest the leeks that were Team 7 and the other rookie teams!

“This is Konoha, and I won’t do anything too dangerous.”

Uehara put his hand on Kakashi’s shoulders and showed a hearty smile, “Why don’t we do this, Kakashi-san? Let’s test my current strength and regardless of whether I win or lose. I’ll take care of the little kids in your team. How about we put on a good show for them?”

“Is it really necessary?”

Kakashi was dumbfounded.

“I’ve come here from afar.”

Uehara was very persistent, and he even began to offer, “Kakashi-san can also call your friends, let’s discuss it together.

Whether it was Hanzo-sama or Konoha Third Hokage-sama, they are already very old. We will be the ones to perform exchanges between the two Ninja villages in the future, right? “

“This proposal is pretty good.”

An old voice suddenly fell into the ears of the two.

Sarutobi Hiruzen dangling his pipe and wearing a Hokage hat, walked into the ramen shop. When he looked at Uehara, a gentle smile slowly appeared on his face, “Kakashi, why don’t you introduce your friend?”
