His high intelligence left a deep impression on him during the negotiations.
It's normal to resort to some underhanded tactics.
"The other one is Sasuke Uchiha, son of Fugaku Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan."
Ao said with a strange look, "I heard he awakened the two-tomoe Sharingan."
How old is he this year?
Terumi Mei was startled and frowned as she asked.
"Seven years old."
Qing replied.
"Awakening the two-tomoe Sharingan at the age of seven, this seems like fake news no matter how you look at it."
Mei Terumi shook her head and said.
"There's one more thing."
Ao couldn't help but laugh and said, "They say that Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki defeated Jonin."
"..."
Mei Terumi remained silent for a moment.
A seven-year-old kid defeated a Jonin?
Even if it's fake information, it's still far too bizarre.
"They're here, let's go over there."
Mei Terumi noticed Tsunade and Kitazawa and walked over.
As for the information Qing had just mentioned, she completely disregarded it and didn't believe it at all.
One o'clock in the afternoon.
Two lottery boxes were brought out.
On the left are five names of Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village), drawn by Kitazawa.
On the right are the five names of Konoha Village, drawn by Ao.
In front of the high platform used for sparring, Tsunade, Mei Terumi, and others were already seated.
Many high-ranking ninjas have arrived from Konoha Village.
Jonin such as Hiruzen Sarutobi, Fugaku Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha, Hiashi Hyuga, Shikaku Nara, and Choza Akimichi.
"Dad and my brother are here!"
The most excited one was Uchiha Sasuke.
The thought of defeating the genius of Kirigakure in front of them made him want to burst into laughter.
"Time's up, let's begin the draw."
Kitazawa raised his hand and said, "Please."
Qing nodded, stepped forward, and took a slip of paper from the lottery box.
He glanced at it and said, "Naruto Uzumaki."
Kitazawa raised an eyebrow, casually pulled out a slip of paper, and said, "Chōjūrō".
Mei Terumi and Tsunade both smiled upon hearing this.
They all thought they could win.
Chapter 286 The Seventh Hokage vs. the Sixth Mizukage
After drawing his lot, Kitazawa went up to the platform.
He was the host and referee of this genin exchange event.
"The first match of the Genin Exchange Tournament: Naruto Uzumaki versus Chojuro."
Kitazawa announced loudly.
Chojuro is the future Sixth Mizukage of Kirigakure.
Naruto Uzumaki is the future Seventh Hokage of Konoha Village.
Kitazawa felt this match should be quite interesting.
Although the outcome will most likely be one-sided.
"Naruto, do your best in the first sparring match!"
Kiba Inuzuka put his arm around Naruto Uzumaki's shoulder and said.
"Not bad!"
Yamanaka Ino clenched her fist and said, "We must show the spirit of Konoha Village in the first match!"
"If you lose, you don't deserve to be my teammate."
Sasuke Uchiha said coolly, hands in his pockets.
"I'll stake my youth on this; I'm sure I'll win!"
Naruto Uzumaki gave a thumbs up and said.
After saying that, he slung his greatsword Samehada over his shoulder and walked up to the high platform.
"Let them witness the power of our youth!"
Lee Rock shouted.
"I think you should be more worried about Naruto's opponent."
Nara Shikamaru watched his retreating figure and said, "This is simply bullying."
Shino Aburame, Choji Akimichi, Karin, and others nodded in agreement.
"The other side isn't bad either."
Hyuga Neji's gaze fell on Chojuro. "Is that the Twin Swords - Hiramekarei?"
The Twin Blades - Hiramekarei is one of the seven swords of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
It has two effects.
Firstly, it can absorb the enemy's chakra, just like the Greatsword Samehada, but there are some differences.
It absorbs the chakra of enemies killed by the user.
In other words, it cannot absorb the chakra of living enemies and is inferior to the Greatsword Samehada.
But it is suitable for group battles, and it is a sword that becomes stronger the more it is fought.
Secondly, the Double-edged Flounder can be freed.
After liberation, chakra can be ejected from the round hole on the sword to form various attacks.
"This is interesting, a clash between two swords from the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist."
Nara Shikamaru put his hands behind his head and said with a smile.
"Naruto didn't rely on the Samehada sword."
Shino Aburame adjusted his glasses and said, "The opponent can't defeat Naruto with just the Twin Blades, Hiramekarei."
Naruto Uzumaki walked up to the high platform.
The greatsword Samehada on his back immediately caught the attention of everyone in Kirigakure.
Many ninjas showed humiliation and anger in their eyes.
The reason for the humiliation is that Kitazawa obtained the Great Sword Samehada by killing Suigetsu Hozuki.
Anger is even simpler: it's such a waste to give such a superb sword to a little kid.
They have countless Jonin in Kirigakure who would love to use it but never get the chance.
However, they also gave the Twin Blades Hiramekarei to Chojuro, and in this respect, both sides unexpectedly used the same method.
"Chōjūrō, you must teach that guy a lesson!"
A little boy with white hair and purple eyes said this with great displeasure.
He is Hozuki Suigetsu.
The Hozuki clan has preserved the ninja sword summoning scroll and the seven ninja swords for generations.
The greatsword Samehada that originally belonged to him became Naruto Uzumaki's.
For Hozuki Suigetsu, who loves his sword, this is nothing short of a revenge for having his wife stolen!
"I...I'll try my best."
Chojuro said shyly.
After he finished speaking, he walked to the opposite side of Naruto Uzumaki.
"The Greatsword Samehada?"
Mei Terumi frowned slightly.
Giving the Twin Blades Hiramekarei to Chojuro was to give him an advantage in ninja tools.
However, once Naruto acquired the Samehada sword, the advantage of ninja tools disappeared.
Fortunately, Chojuro's water-style techniques and swordsmanship are quite good.
Mei Terumi still has faith in him.
"Battle begins!"
After Kitazawa finished speaking, he stepped aside.
Chojuro took a deep breath.
Without hesitation, he launched an immediate attack, wielding his twin swords, Hiramekarei, and slashing at Naruto from the left and right.
Naruto Uzumaki threw the Greatsword Samehada directly.
What's going on?
Chojuro was completely bewildered by his actions.
But his reaction was quick; he brought his twin swords, Hiramekarei, together and sent the greatsword, Samehada, flying.
What is he doing?
Hozuki Suigetsu angrily asked, "Does he even know how to use the Greatsword Samehada?"
As members of the Hozuki clan who control the summoning scrolls for the seven ninja swords, they are very knowledgeable about how to use them.
Naruto's way of using it made him so angry he almost vomited blood.
He wanted to rush up to him and shout, "Watch closely, this is how you use the Greatsword Samehada!"
But now all he can do is rage in a helpless frenzy.
"What a waste."
Mei Terumi couldn't help but say, "Giving him the Greatsword Samehada was a mistake, Takamura."
"We can give it to whomever we like."
Tsunade said calmly.
"..."
Mei Terumi felt a pang of heartache.
The greatsword Samehada was treated with utmost pampering in Kirigakure.
But in Konoha Village, their status felt even lower than that of a dog.
Just then, Mei Terumi suddenly widened her eyes.
Not only her, but all the other ninjas from Kirigakure also showed expressions of shock.
