Naruto: My setting is above yours

Chapter 43 One who stays near ink gets stained black.

Watching the game?

No, Genma is here to see a famous scene!

The group chatted idly while waiting, and soon Matt Kai and his group arrived.

With the time running out, Might Guy and the others had already entered the examination hall, but Obito Uchiha had not yet arrived. Shizune and Aoba Yamashiro could only look at each other in bewilderment.

Kakashi couldn't help but complain, "I told you I wasn't wrong, didn't I?"

"Because you always spoil him, Lin, that's why his habit of being late can't be cured."

Rin Nohara was a little embarrassed, but she still reassured Kakashi with confidence: "It's okay, Obito must have been held up by something."

"I'll definitely make it in time for the exam!"

Kakashi scoffed, "Who knows?"

Fortunately, Obito Uchiha lived up to his title as the best timer. Seeing that time was running out, he finally ran over, panting, and said, "Sorry, I'm late!"

Rin Nohara breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "See? I told you Obito would definitely get here!"

Kakashi, however, was furious. He put one hand on his hip, pointed at Obito Uchiha, and roared, "Hurry up! We're going to lose our chance to take the exam!"

Seeing that Obito Uchiha had finally arrived, Shizune and Aoba Yamashiro couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for him.

Xuanma, who had been observing the situation, spoke up: "Alright, let's go inside!"

The three went inside, while Xuanma and his two companions watched the battle from behind the iron railing.

"With Kakashi's strength, there shouldn't be any problem!"

Silent lane.

Genma nodded: "Kakashi is definitely fine."

"Gai and the others are quite strong, but they are still far behind Kakashi."

Might Guy isn't considered outstanding yet; he's just average.

Only after mastering the Eight Gates Formation will one become extraordinary.

However, the focus now is on Obito Uchiha.

As the examiner waved the flag, the battle began.

Obito Uchiha immediately launched a strong attack, forming hand seals to unleash the Great Fireball Technique.

But as soon as he inhaled, the candy in his mouth blocked his throat, preventing his chakra from escaping, and his face turned red.

Seeing Obito Uchiha being kicked away by Guy, Shizune and Aoba Yamashiro were both dumbfounded.

This is outrageous!

Coming to his senses, Yamashiro Aoba adjusted his sunglasses: "I must learn from this."

Shizune looked at his sunglasses: "Qingye, do you want to take your sunglasses off?"

Yamashiro Aoba hesitated.

Xuanma laughed and said, "Sunglasses are indeed not suitable for nighttime combat, unless they are specially made."

"Sunglasses do have some use in daytime combat, such as blocking out light."

Yamashiro Aoba nodded: "I'll try to get the custom sunglasses made. If it doesn't work, I'll take them off tonight."

Nodding, Genma glanced at the battle that was about to end and said, "Let's go, the final match is in three days."

The three turned and left.

Meanwhile, in the examination room monitoring room.

Watching Obito Uchiha's awkward situation on the screen, Minato Namikaze felt extremely embarrassed.

Even Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but sigh, "This child..."

Minato Namikaze quickly replied, "I will do my best to guide you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, took a puff of his cigarette, and asked, "Do you know anything about the Wind-Riding Genma?"

Minato Namikaze paused for a moment: "Eh, well... I don't really know much about it."

"I've only heard Kakashi mention it, saying that Genma's strength is unfathomable."

"Moreover, he possesses extraordinary talent unlike anyone else, enabling him to develop ordinary ninjutsu in incredible ways."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered, "Since Kakashi said that, it seems the two of them will put on a very exciting showdown in this assessment."

Minato Namikaze smiled and said, "Sakumo-senpai also has a very high opinion of Genma, and as far as I know, Genma and Lady Tsunade have a very good relationship."

"It is said that he has an amazing talent for medical ninjutsu."

He did know that Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded.

Genma's medical skills have already surpassed those of his mother, Ritsuka.

That's truly amazing for someone that age.

"Let's take a look at the assessment in three days!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Minato Namikaze nodded: "Yes!"

……

After parting ways with Shizune and the others, Genma went to the forest to train again.

To completely transform from Wood Release Chakra Mode to Wood Release Kekkei Genkai, one must never stop training and absorb the power of plant cells every day to change one's physique.

Fortunately, he possessed a chakra level comparable to the One-Tailed Fox, which greatly enhanced his endurance. Otherwise, with his initial chakra level, such a gradual change would have taken ten years.

After eating and drinking his fill, Genma pondered to himself, "First, I need to modify the summoning jutsu to summon Nawaki's soul from the Pure Land and overcome Tsunade's hemophobia."

"I'll definitely have a significant amount of setting points coming in. Once I master Wood Release, my next step will be to accumulate setting points and modify the Chakra Refining Technique again."

"The vast, ubiquitous natural energy is the next version."

Xuanma had thought about the future path many times and had several plans.

But no matter what, chakra is the core of the core.

……

Time passed day by day, and soon the third round of the Chunin Exams began.

This time it's in a huge indoor training arena.

All the genin who participated in the third assessment gathered here, standing in the stands around the training ground.

Beneath the giant ninja statue, a special Jonin serves as the examiner.

The names of the opponents will be displayed on an electronic screen.

Xuanma was already used to this.

The technology in the Naruto world will always remain a mystery.

Take air conditioning and electricity, for example. They were already commonplace even in Tobirama Senju's time, let alone now.

Computers are used extensively at Konoha Hospital.

There are also many advanced medical devices.

At this moment, Genma knew that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was definitely watching this scene on the monitor.

Once everyone was present, two names immediately appeared on the electronic display screen.

"Shizune, Rin Nohara!"

The examiner shouted loudly.

Unexpectedly, the first match was a battle between two medical ninjas.

Xuanma seemed to be deep in thought.

It seems this isn't necessarily a random matchup.

"Then I'll go."

Silent opening.

Xuanma smiled and said, "Believe in yourself, you can do it."

Yamashiro Aoba said, "Go for it!"

Shizune nodded, then leaped from the stands and landed in the stadium.

Not far away, Rin Nohara made her entrance amidst cheers from Obito Uchiha.

The examiner, Hisakatsu Yuto, glanced at the two of them and asked, "Are you ready?"

Shizune and Rin exchanged a glance, then nodded in unison: "Ready!"

Yuto Hisakatsu immediately raised his hand and waved: "Begin!"

Whoosh~

As their shuriken flew, the two almost simultaneously chose to test each other with ninja tools.

With a clang, the sword fell to the ground.

Shizune raised her hand, launched a hidden arrow, and immediately charged towards Nohara Rin.

Rin Nohara was startled and dodged the hidden arrow, but Shizune seized the opportunity to rush forward, wielding a kunai and launching a fierce attack, drawing Rin Nohara into her own offensive rhythm.

In the stands, Obito Uchiha watched nervously, repeatedly shouting "Go for it!"

Kakashi snapped, "Shut up, you idiot!"

Just as Obito Uchiha was about to retort, Kakashi added, "You're only distracting Rin."

He opened his mouth to speak but hesitated, finally giving up unhappily, then said worriedly, "Kakashi, Rin seems to be at a disadvantage!"

"Will we lose if we continue like this?"

Kakashi calmly analyzed, "Not that fast."

"Although Lin has fallen into the opponent's rhythm, Shizune does not have an absolute advantage."

"There isn't a significant difference between the two in terms of physical skills."

Obito Uchiha let out a sigh of relief: "That's good."

"As long as Lin perseveres, she'll definitely win!"

Kakashi, however, was not so optimistic and couldn't help but glance at Genma not far away.

With such a companion around, silence probably won't be that simple, right?
