Kitazawa announced, "After a 15-minute break, the fourth round will begin."
After he finished speaking, he immediately directed the Anbu to restore the Konoha Arena.
However, Kitazawa did not cancel the Four Purple Flame Formation.
Because the battles to come will be even more intense.
Kitazawa returned to the audience seats.
The audience was still very lively, not yet quieted down from the shock they had just experienced.
"Tsunade-sensei."
Kitazawa sat down next to Tsunade and reminded her, "After the team assignments are completed, remember to mention the new Sannin of Konoha."
“I can tell you’re really interested in this.”
Tsunade paused, then asked, "Are you paving the way for them in advance?"
Kitazawa was slightly taken aback, realizing that she had misunderstood.
However, it's normal for her to think that way.
Becoming Hokage requires immense fame.
If the new Sannin of Konoha are recognized by the public, they will have the potential to become Hokage at any time.
Just like Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru, no one would object to whoever becomes Hokage.
In fact, that's normal.
In the original work, Jiraiya declined the position of Fifth Hokage and Tsunade was chosen instead.
Orochimaru would have become the Fourth Hokage long ago if Minato Namikaze hadn't suddenly appeared.
"I learned this from you."
Kitazawa blinked and said, "Retire early."
"You're thinking about retiring before you've even become Hokage?"
Tsunade couldn't help but laugh and said, "In that respect, you are indeed my student."
"It's difficult for me to retire early even if I want to."
Kitazawa casually remarked, "They're still a long way from reaching adulthood; I'll be Hokage for at least six years."
"Six years is not a long time."
Tsunade glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said, "The old man has been the Hokage for over twenty years."
"Then why didn't you serve for a few more years?"
Kitazawa asked, complaining.
"I'm different."
Tsunade's lips curled slightly as she retorted, "Besides, isn't this all because of you?"
"Then you have to make it up to me properly."
Kitazawa remained calm and hinted at something.
We'll talk about it later.
Tsunade ignored his words and changed the subject, reminding him, "You should be careful about the Hyuga and Uchiha clans in the future."
The meaning represented by the new Konoha Sannin is very straightforward.
The Hyuga and Uchiha clans will definitely pave the way for Hinata Hyuga and Sasuke Uchiha, or rather, they will compete with each other for the Hokage position.
"I know."
Kitazawa said nonchalantly.
As long as he possesses absolute power, no matter how much the Hyuga and Uchiha clans cause trouble, they will not dare to disobey him.
When do you want to become Hokage?
Tsunade nodded and then asked.
"I also can."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.
At this point, it doesn't matter whether it's a few days earlier or later.
"Okay, then let's do it next week."
Tsunade immediately said, "I will send someone to invite the Daimyo of the Land of Fire as soon as the graduation exams are over today."
"You really can't wait."
Kitazawa chuckled and said.
The fifteen-minute break was over quickly.
The crowd recovered from the shock of the apocalyptic arrow and turned to look at the arena.
It's important to know that Hinata Hyuga's battle with Yakumo Kurama was not the final battle.
The upcoming battles might feature even more surprising ninjutsu than the World-Destroying Arrow.
Kitazawa reached out and took out two small slips of paper from the lottery box.
He glanced at it and nodded slightly.
In a sense, this result is the most suitable for this graduation exam.
"Round 4, Match 1: Naruto Uzumaki vs. Neji Hyuga!"
Kitazawa announced.
Now only four students remain. After the first round was confirmed, the second round was also confirmed.
The winners of the last two matches will advance to the fifth round for the final battle.
Sasuke Uchiha clenched his fists instinctively.
He only needs to defeat Hinata Hyuga to compete with Naruto Uzumaki for first place.
Although he had lost many times before, as long as he wins this time, all his previous defeats will be forgotten.
Naruto Uzumaki didn't think too much about it; as long as he could fight, that was enough.
Hyuga Neji's thoughts were similar to those of Uchiha Sasuke.
He wanted to win this battle and go all the way.
It's difficult.
Hinata Hyuga had already given up hope.
She used the World-Destroying Arrow in the previous battle, which left Satoru with only one-third of his chakra.
Even if Goku still had 100% of his chakra, it would be difficult for him to defeat Sasuke Uchiha.
Chapter 418 Sasuke vs. Naruto, Graduation Exams End
Hyuga Neji walked to the center of the field.
With a solemn expression, he took out the Feather Bow.
This was undoubtedly the toughest battle he had ever fought during his time at the Ninja Academy.
Although he had always considered himself a genius, he was no genius compared to Naruto Uzumaki.
"Battle begins!"
Kitazawa retreated to the sidelines.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
Naruto Uzumaki formed hand seals and created thousands of shadow clones.
In an instant, the Konoha Arena became incredibly crowded.
Multiple arrows!
Hyuga Neji drew his Life Feather Bow.
As soon as he released the bowstring, an arrow of Yin-Yang Escape flew out.
Along the way, it split into two, then into four, until it produced a thousand Yin Escape Arrows.
Such a spectacular scene immediately drew gasps of amazement from the audience.
The ability to understand is to perceive emotions.
Zero-Tails' ability is to split chakra.
This is why Neji Hyuga is more skilled at Multishot than Hinata Hyuga.
But he has yet to find a place to use his skills.
"Amazing! As expected of Neji!"
Naruto Uzumaki watched as most of his shadow clones disappeared in an instant and couldn't help but give them a thumbs up.
This was the first time his Multiple Shadow Clone Technique had resulted in such heavy losses in a single encounter.
Neji Hyuga did not answer, and drew the bowstring once more.
His Byakugan locked onto Naruto's true form, then he released his grip.
Spiral Arrow!
A Yin Release arrow spun and instantly covered a distance of tens of meters, arriving in front of Naruto Uzumaki.
"Fierce Leaf Vajra Whirlwind!"
Naruto Uzumaki reacted quickly and kicked the Spiral Arrow.
His remaining shadow clones rushed towards Hyuga Neji.
Exploding Arrow!
Hyuga Neji drew his bow and nocked an arrow three times in a row.
Three explosive arrows detonated in mid-air, like three fireworks, covering Naruto's shadow clones.
While they were still dizzy, multiple arrows struck again, piercing their bodies.
"Half-Tailed Beast Transformation!"
Naruto Uzumaki did not use the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique again.
Crimson chakra emanated and enveloped him.
Four tails formed and danced behind him.
"Leaf Whirlwind!"
Naruto Uzumaki unleashed his full speed, reaching Neji Hyuga and delivering a powerful kick.
Hyuga Neji only saw a blurry shadow. He instinctively raised his Life Feather Bow, and was then kicked away.
The heavy kick nearly caused him to lose feeling in his right arm.
Hyuga Neji immediately thought of his previous battle with Rock Lee.
Without hesitation, he gripped the Feather Bow and activated Yin Release Chakra Mode.
The power of Yin escape spread out and formed a tree in front of him.
"Fierce Leaf Vajra Whirlwind!"
Naruto Uzumaki kicked the tree, shattering it into pieces.
Just as he was preparing to continue his attack, he saw countless Yin-escaping arrows appear all around him.
"Konoha Dragon God!"
Naruto Uzumaki instantly transformed into a blood dragon.
The arrows of Yin Escape that were rushing toward him nearby were all deflected.
