"She is indeed Konoha's ninja and one of the examiners in charge of this examination. Alright, you have passed the graduation examination. You can let her go now."
Not far away, Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen walking over with a man with two scars on the right side of his face and a hedgehog braid behind his head.
Obviously, they had seen the entire examination, but they had never shown themselves.
Originally, they were looking forward to the follow-up, but they did not expect that one of the examiners, Mitarashi Anko, would be directly seen through and captured before she could resist.
If this was on the battlefield, it could be said that death was certain!
It could be said that Sarutobi was very disappointed. It was not because of Aoba, but because he was disappointed with Anko, who was Gennin.
Although under the guidance of Orochimaru, Anko had learned many powerful ninjutsu, but her reverence was not enough, and she was too impulsive. Now, she was actually defeated by a little brat...
This was also one of the reasons why Sarutobi did not agree to let this group of Ninjas enter the battlefield.
"Still not letting go?!" Anko clenched her teeth and squeezed out these words.
For her, such an embarrassing scene was seen by the Hokage. It was really shameful!
On the other side, when Aoba saw that the Hokage had arrived, there was naturally no need for him to continue acting.
Thus, he let out a long breath and let go of Anko, who was tightly held in his arms.
At the same time, he did not forget to explain, "I was wondering how the spies of the enemy village could have hidden here. So that's what happened. Haha, a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, haha..."
"Misunderstanding your head! Do you think I can't tell that you are doing this on purpose? Hidden Shadow Snake Hands technique!"
"Wow, you crazy woman, old woman! How dare you bite the hand that feeds you! If I had known earlier, I would have knocked you out before letting you go!"
Aoba really did not expect that this woman would dare to attack him directly in front of Sarutobi. She must have been mad.
However, in the face of the 'Snake Assault, he had no intention of dodging at all.
Sure enough!
Before the snakes could bite Aoba, Anko was completely unable to move.
Looking again, the shadow on the ground seemed a little strange
"Enough! I already said that the assessment is over! Are you dissatisfied with my decision?" Sarutobi said without anger.
Anko was shocked and quickly explained, "No, Hokage Sama, I... I am just a little angry."
At this time, seeing that Anko had regained his senses, the shadow that was entangled on the ground immediately returned to normal, and even Anko regained his freedom.
However, this time, Anko did not dare to do it again. She was indeed a little angry just now.
Her technique was taken back. Anko was like a little girl who had done something wrong. She lowered her head and looked at her feet unwillingly.
Although she had only been promoted to Gennin for a year, if the news of what happened today were to spread, she really did not know how to see people.
Just like what Aoba had said before, Gennin who was subdued by a single move, and a six year old brat!
"Are you not convinced?"
Anko bit her lips stubbornly and then nodded silently.
"Why not?"
"If I do it again, I will never lose!" Anko refused to admit defeat.
"Again? If you were caught by the enemy on the battlefield, would you ask the enemy to give you another chance?"
Sarutobi's words instantly stunned Anko.
Yes, if the two of them were really hostile, she might be dead now.
In a cruel battlefield, everyone would do anything they could, as long as they could deal with the enemy.
There was nothing that could not be done by poisoning, sneak attack, coercion, and even using the old and weak women and children as hostages.
Moreover, that fellow was only using her own advantage in a reasonable way, and being captured by someone was just her own fault.
If she could detect it in advance, if she could disguise herself flawlessly and not be discovered, if she directly joined forces with the other Genin to attack from the beginning...
Unfortunately, there weren't so many ifs.
Thinking of this, the resentment in Anko's heart immediately dissipated by half. Then, he solemnly said, "I'm sorry. I let you down."
Hearing that Anko finally understood his good intentions, Sarutobi couldn't help but feel comforted. Finally, a smile appeared on his face. "I hope you can remember this lesson in the future. The fight between ninjas will never be based on the strength of paper. No matter how weak an ordinary person is, it is also possible to stab through the heart of a ninja. If you don't learn from this lesson, your future achievements will stop here."
"Yes, Lord Hiruzen, Anko understands."
Then, Sarutobi looked at Aoba who had already removed the 'Kekkei Genkai'.
"I didn't expect you to be able to develop your own Kekkei Genkai to such an extent at such a young age. Your talent is really rare. Moreover, I saw that your physical skills against the enemy before were also very refined. Your strength has already surpassed most of the Genins in the village. It is indeed a waste to let you continue to stay in the ninja school."
"So I declare that you have successfully passed this graduation exam."
"This is your ninja forehead, you must keep it well."
Aoba took the ninja forehead that was engraved with Konoha's symbol, and he did not expect that it was actually Sarutobi, the Hokage, who personally handed it to him.
According to the normal process of graduation, the forehead guard should go back to school, go to his own class Sensei to receive it, and at the same time, it will also have a rank identity and have its own ninja number and so on.
However, since Sarutobi had personally brought the item, with the power of the Hokage, there was no need to think about anything else.
"Okay, I got it."
Aoba directly put the forehead guard on his head, and then nodded heavily.
But in his heart, he thought that maybe one day, he would personally cut the forehead guard.
Of course, if he could get the position of Hokage, it would naturally be another matter.
"By the way, Hokage Sama, where is Itachi?"
They had clearly agreed to take the test together, but since there were so many tricks up their sleeves, Itachi should have taken the test somewhere else.
"Don't worry about him. He passed the test a bit earlier than you." Sarutobi smiled and said.
In fact, Itachi and Aoba had gone through similar tests, but the time and place were different. Itachi, who had taken the test first, was forbidden to reveal the content of the test. Otherwise, the test would lose its meaning.
The performance of the two people was perfect!
Moreover, they had discovered the enemy hidden around them very early on and then made their most effective counterattack.
Seeing this, Sarutobi, who had someone design this test, was much more relieved.
