Long Live The Hokage

Chapter 183: Canon!

Chapter 183: Canon!

Time flies, two days passed in the blink of an eye, and the 39th Enrollment Exam of Konoha Academy began.

Masahiko didnt participate personally and stood beside Sakumo as a bystander.

The test is divided into three sessions. The easiest one was Ninjutsu. Its all about how efficient you are at refining Chakra. Of course, if you want to get a high score, you must be able to use the Three Basic Techniques proficiently, which is very difficult for children.

Taijutsu is a pure physical skill assessment. Male and female candidates have different standards, and for boys, they were more stringent.

Genjutsu is the illusion assessment. Of course, none of the kids would be asked to use Genjutsu, this test was all about their ability to resist Genjutsu.

Sakumo, what is the qualification for the assessment? Masahiko generally understood the concept of the assessments but didnt know the specific scoring criteria.

The highest is ten, the average is five, Sakumo replied.

Masahiko nodded, And what if the candidate is particularly outstanding in one aspect? Masahiko thought of Gai.

If you score ten points in one test, you can ignore the others.

Masahiko breathed a sigh of relief and felt that Gai should be fine.

But its difficult to get a full score. Sakumo added, Kakashi probably would only get 10 points in Ninjutsu, and maybe 9 or even 8 in the other two.

Masahiko frowned. Since childhood, Kakashi, who had been trained by Sakumo, should have better physical skills than Gai, yet he doesnt expect him to get full marks

Is it this strict?

Sakumo nodded, The Hokage-Sama is hopeless. There are too many candidates. This time more than 150 children signed up, and hes hoping that only 60 people will pass.

Masahiko nodded in understanding. He knew in his heart that those children will always get a second chance. The oldest entry age for the Academy is nine years old, and now many children are just over five years old.

Of course, all of the five-year-olds are obviously very self-confident.

Sakumo, wheres your baby? The students have entered the arena one after another, but Masahiko didnt see Kakashi.

Kakashi will be the last one to take the test. Sakumos face seemed stiff.

Like father like son, so he loves to show up too? Masahiko laughed and teased.

Alright. Sakumo grew up dealing with Masahiko, and it seems like the latters teasing doesnt work on him anymore.

Masahiko looked at the children who were at the forefront. As expected, there were no familiar faces. It seems that the stronger children were ranked behind.

The three examiners were, Nara Patriarch for the Ninjutsu test, Hyuga Patriarch for the Taijutsu, and Uchiha Kagami for the Genjutsu.

Masahiko thought for a while. If something like Genjutsu is misused, it may greatly impact the future of these kids. At this time, Konohas strongest Genjutsu user should be Uchiha Kagami.

Sure enough, its rigorous. These three examiners look scary. Masahiko muttered.

However, the Genjutsu he found most difficult was easily passed by the children. None of them seemed to have been trapped inside Genjutsu for a long time. Still, none managed to get a high score.

Why does Kagami seem to be letting them pass?

Sakumo hesitated for a moment and came over quietly, I heard that the Elders daughter-in-law seems to be pregnant. He should be in a good mood.

Masahiko gave him a smile, When did you become a gossip person?

Wait, Kagamis grandson? Masahiko was startled. Isnt that should be Uchiha Shisui?

What wrong, Elder Masahiko?

Ah, n-nothing

Usually, the birth of one more kid isnt that great of news, but those eyes are the things Masahiko was more concerned about.

Masahiko pondered for a while, then he came back to his sense after a time to watch the test. The children in the top ranks werent good, after all. Although they didnt do too bad, Masahiko estimated that they wouldnt pass.

So, who will be the first Canon kid?

Masahiko was excited.

After half a minute.

Huh, it turned out to be Gai Masahiko couldnt laugh or cry, I should have thought of what to expect.

Is he Dais son? Sakumo asked.

Different from the original, Sakumo knew the Taijutsu proficient Maito Dai.

Masahiko nodded with a smile.

Sakumo hesitated, knowing how difficult the assessment is, He wont be able to pass this way.

Masahiko waved his hand, Its okay, he will do it!

Masahiko couldnt remember anything about Gai failing to enter the Academy in the original. And he also knew that he and Kakashi will join in the same year, so he felt that it would be impossible for him not to pass.

Sakumo hesitated for a moment but said nothing.

Ten minutes later, Masahikos mouth twitched. Although he didnt know his score, Gai will never pass this exam unless the examiner felt asleep.

He will be fine. Masahiko didnt like to be proven wrong.

After him, another familiar face entered the scene, Masahiko temporarily put aside his attention to Gais score.

This guy I think it should be Ibiki Morino, but he doesnt have that scar yet.

This is Ebisu? Konohamarus Sensei is he also in this batch?

Gekko Hayate, and Yugao Uzuki, this pair is also joining this year.

The one holding the straw stick should be Genma Shiranui, the one who loves to complain.

Rin Nohara

Speaking of Rin, thats Obito over there, this is the first time I see him.

Kurenai Yuhi, so she only managed to pass the Genjutu test? Still, shes the first one to get a perfect score.

The living 35 million Ryo, Asuma

As the candidates took the tests, Masahiko kept recalling the familiar character one after another. In addition to them, there were also a few children who were familiar but couldnt name. But there are at least thirteen or fourteen Canon characters that Masahiko remembers from the original.

As for Hatake Kakashi, he entered the field with a small sword, and the Ninja Academy entrance exam that lasted for a full day came to an end.

Kakashis three basic Ninjutsu were perfect, the best so far, and he got his full mark, but he didnt pass the Ninjutsu test first. Instead, he took the other two tests, but he failed to pass them with full marks, making him look a little disappointed.

Masahiko hesitated for a moment, turned to Sakumo, and asked a question that had troubled him for a century, Why is Kakashi is wearing a mask?

Because hes insanely handsome.

Sakumo turned around and left. Masahiko, who was stunned for a while, finally remembered Teuchi and his daughters reaction when they saw Kakashis face in the original
