Red Dust

"Three generations of adults, you don't have to console me!"

Senai Ibiki stood up straight, with a straight face, and did not shy away from his responsibilities.

"The written part of the Chunin exam almost became a laughing stock. As the person in charge, I can't help but blame it."

Although it has already passed, what happened in the examination room will definitely spread quickly through the mouths of the test takers.

There is no foolproof selection mechanism in this world, and there are no flawless rules, but in a short written test, it is a bit unreasonable to let Jinin who took the test give a slight push and almost collapse.

"Ibizi, you are naturally responsible for your negligence. Most of the genin are immature, but there are very few guys who are beyond common sense. That Daimaru raised a risky question, and you underestimated his destructiveness. There is no attention, and there is no timely remedy, and when it is done, it is already a little behind to make up for it..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a smoke ring, was silent for a while, and then sighed,

"As an elite of the torture unit, your past experience makes you more comfortable when facing a single ninja. However, there are more than 100 candidates for the Chunin exam, and people's hearts are mixed. Extend the experience of dealing with individuals to groups Sometimes, your set of torture techniques will produce some loopholes..."

Sarutobi Hiizaki got up, pushed open the window behind his desk, and looked at the bustling crowd outside,

"According to your original plan, in addition to interacting with teammates, all other candidates will be alienated into intelligence sources, and there will be no direct or indirect communication between teams.

However, you have acquiesced that candidates can interfere with other teams to get answers by cheating. Even if each team cannot communicate face-to-face, each team that can exchange information actually forms a small group, and personal psychology will give Group psychology gives way..."

Ibihi Mori was thoughtful. The objects bound by the written test rules were actually small teams, but because of Daimaru's actions, all the candidates were linked together. The original set must be a little out of control, and it is not surprising that the order in the test room is out of control.

"I seem to understand a little, three generations of adults, thank you for your teaching!"

"Ha ha……"

Sarutobi Hizan smiled heartily,

"You are very talented, Ibizi, but today you were dragged into a battlefield that you were not familiar with before..."

Group psychology is actually a branch of social psychology research. Where do ninjas pay attention to these?

Only the top-level rulers need to understand how to guide the hearts of the entire village, and how to effectively use the wisdom of the group to make the village grow and develop.

This thing already belongs to the category of imperial studies. It is understandable that Sennei is negligent. After all, he is only a torture officer.

"I will continue to work hard and try not to let the accident happen again in the future! Regarding the source of all this - Sandin Daimaru, do you have any instructions?"

"A little guy with a clear mind, reminds me of Hai Lao Zang in Shayin Village. Back then, he was a man who liked to take shots in corners that no one else would notice, looking for the bleak place for Shayin Village in crisis. A wise man with a chance to live..."

"That military advisor from Sandyin Village? You may have praised Daimaru too much. He is just a little smart and daredevil. This incident should be just a coincidence. I think it was himself, and he never thought it would become like this. !"

"Maybe!"

Of course, Sarutobi Hiizhan didn't really think that Daimaru was qualified to be compared with the famous Eirazo, but he just said it casually,

"This is the end of the matter, Konoha doesn't need to worry about one or two occasions, and he won't make a big deal with a Shayin village."

"understand!"

The power of the Ninja Village of the big country, the strongest grace in the Ninja world, gives Konoha Ninja enough confidence to deal with everything.

On the head of the willow tree on the moon, in the courtyard of the main house of the Nara family, Nara Shikahisa is playing shogi with Nara Shikamaru.

The slightly drunk Nara Shikahisa was a little out of shape, but today's Nara Shikamaru is even more restless.

"General, draw a corner!"

Nara Shikahisa let out a breath of alcohol and said lazily,

"I won again, it's really easy. Today you are so out of standard, what's on your mind? Talk about it, listen to your son's troubles, it's also one of the father's responsibilities..."

"How can there be such a responsibility!"

Nara Shikamaru was somewhat resistant, proud and reserved, not allowing himself to be wronged outside, and even chatting to his father when he returned home.

After the first trial of the Chunin Exam, Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Choji sent the poor Yamanaka Ino home together. The surprised and worried eyes of Yamanaka Ino's mother, Yamanaka Rino, lingered in Shikamaru's mind.

Fortunately, she didn't ask why she took the written test of the Chunin Exam, and she would be injured and returned, but the stagnation in Nara Shikamaru's heart has never been resolved.

"Really!"

Nara Shikahisa did not ask any further questions, but changed the subject.

"Your mother just asked me to help you out! If you don't want to cause trouble to others, don't show a worried look!"

"Ok!"

"Just understand, let's continue!"

After a long time, Nara Shikamaru, who had lost several games in a row, conceded defeat again:

"Stop playing!"

"Alright, how is it, do you have something to say?"

"Ok!"

Shikamaru put his hands behind his back, looking at the bright moon above his head,

"The Chunin exam this afternoon was a bit unexpected..."

"and many more……"

Nara Shikahisa had a troublesome expression on his face,

"Today is the time for the Chunin exam? Did you take it too?"

"You should also be concerned about the future of your only son, father!"

"understood!"

Nara Shikahisa waved his hand impatiently,

"Come on!"

Next, Nara Shikamaru briefly explained what happened in the first test of the Chunin Exam.

"That's it!"

Nara Shikahisa, who understood what happened, suddenly realized,

"It's no wonder that Haiyi hurriedly went back before he could enjoy himself. It turned out that the baby girl was injured."

"Dad, I'm a little worried that the friendship between you and Uncle Haiyi has degenerated to the point of being just a friend of wine and meat?"

Chapter 0041 their pride

"There's nothing wrong with wine and meat friends..."

Nara Shikamaru was teasing half-jokingly, but Nara Shikahisa didn't take it to heart either.

"You don't understand the matter of the adults..."

The more close friends are, the more attention should be paid to the proportions of getting along with each other, otherwise, seemingly indestructible friendships will become shackles that bind each other.

Nara Shikahisa sighed and rubbed Nara Shikamaru's hair:

"You, Ino and Dingji have passed the test successfully, are you still dissatisfied?"

"It always feels a little wrong, but I can't say exactly what it is..."

"Is it impossible to tell, or are you unwilling to admit it?"

Nara Shikisa is the squad leader of the Murakami Ninja class, and his status is higher than that of the new generation Jōnin like Hatake Kakashi and Matekai, and only Hokage and a few advisors can make him scruples.

What has the well-informed Nara Shikahisa not seen?Where can Nara Shikamaru hide that little thought?

"Admit? You want to say that I don't want to face reality..."

"Look! I haven't said anything yet, so you don't make a fool of yourself! I'm not too worried about your smart mind, but smart doesn't mean wisdom..."

Nara Shikamaru raised his eyebrows:

"What do you mean, I'm just a clever fool?"

"A clever idiot? You probably don't really think that your brain is better than your child, that's why you have such unintelligible words.

In the written test, you were forced into a corner by those genin candidates who were not as smart as you, and could only barely pass the alms of Ibizi, so you were very unwilling and felt that your self-esteem was hurt? "

"I do not have……"

Nara Shikamaru was still arguing to himself, and Nara Shikahisa continued as if he had not heard:

"Because of incompetence, so anger, and then feel pain..."

"do not talk!"

Nara Shikamaru loudly stopped his father's merciless words,

"Please, stop talking!"

"Do you think I'm going too far?"

Nara Shikahisa stood up,

"It's a good thing to have confidence in your own intelligence, but don't overestimate the value of a good mind. Otherwise, why would there be the word "big wisdom"? My proud son, think about it!"

After speaking, Nara Shikahisa turned and left, leaving Nara Shikamaru alone to admire the moon.

"It's really an irresponsible father. He left before he finished speaking. Do you have confidence in me like that? I think I can understand without saying it clearly..."

Nara Shikamaru smiled wryly, and took out a kunai from the ninja bag,

"Am I your 'proud son' too? I feel ashamed of myself like this!"

……

It was late at night, and many of the people who had been busy all day had already fallen asleep.

During the day, Daimaru, who was a little presumptuous, was still writing something by the dim incandescent light of the hotel.

While writing the book, there was a soft knock on the door.

Daimaru put down the paintbrush in his hand, cleaned up the messy table a little, and then went to open the door.

Outside the door, Kankuro in a light shirt stood.

After taking off his iconic puppet costume and washing off the oil paint on his face, Kankuro looked like an ordinary chubby boy.

"It's so late, what's the matter?"

Kankuro, who was facing the sky, had not seen Daimaru for several years, and if it wasn't for the vague appearance of his childhood, he would have hardly recognized him.

"I can't sleep a bit. I saw that the light in your room was still on, so I came over to have a look."
