Uchiha Clan Is Gone - Chapter 4
Chapter 4 ChūNin Examination
The next day, Yelan, who was resting at his residence, received his letter of appointment as Special Jōnin.
“Hello, Yelan-kun, my name is Yamashiro Aoba. Here is the appointment letter and some ninja equipment. Please check them.”
What came to Yelan’s residence was a Special Jōnin wearing sunglasses. In addition to the appointment letter, he also brought a ninja vest, clothes and a new Konoha forehead protector.
Yelan looked at Yamashiro Aoye who was a little nervous, nodded and took all the items.
Ignoring the ninja equipment, he opened the appointment letter and made sure it had Hokage’s signature. He put the appointment letter away and found that Yamashiro Aoba had not left yet and asked: “What else do I need to do now?”
“Ah, by the way, you should pack up now. There will be a meeting about the Chūnin exam later. You don’t know the location. Lord Hokage asked me to take you there.” Yamashiro Aoba calmed down and said.
“Then wait for me for a moment.”
Yelan turned around and entered the room, put on a dark slim coat, tied the arm guards he usually used on his hands, and then put on his customary combat boots. Konoha’s forehead protector hung casually around his waist, less than two feet long. Finished in minutes.
Seeing the reappearance of Uchiha Yelan, Yamashiro Aoba looked at the ninja vest he just brought and said: “Is this all right?”
“Um.”
Although Konoha does not clearly stipulate that ninja vests must be worn except when war breaks out, many Special Jōnin and Jōnin will wear their own comfortable clothes, but people like Yelan don’t even look at it, and Konoha’s forehead protector is hung casually on his waist. Really never.
Forget it, just take him to the meeting place and my task will be completed, Yamashiro Aoba thought.
When they were about to arrive at the place, Yamashiro Aoba clearly felt that the eyes around him were obviously looking in his direction. To be precise, it should be Uchiha Yelan.
“That clan emblem is…”
“How could there be…”
Yamashiro Aoye felt something was wrong, and looked back at Yelan. He walked expressionlessly, as if he didn’t hear the comments around him, and directly passed Yamashiro Aoye, and then said, “What, are you there yet? ”
At this time, Yamashiro Aoba saw the Uchiha clan emblem on the back of Yelan’s coat. Although it was not big, it was only a small area behind his neck, but it clearly showed his identity.
Yamashiro Aoye adjusted his glasses, and immediately speeded up and walked in front of Yelan again, “Come on, come on, we’re here.”
“You understand why I summoned you,” said Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting directly above.
“Sure enough, the time has come.” A female ninja with red pupils said, “So when is it exactly?”
“One week later.” Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up the cigarette rod and took a deep breath before saying.
“That’s really anxious.” A silver-haired ninja sighed.
“For this joint examination, nobles from other countries will come, so the safety of Konoha depends on everyone present.” Hiruzen continued.
Kakashi was distracted during Hiruzen’s tirade, and suddenly found that his friend Metkai stabbed him from behind.
“What’s the matter? Kai?” Kakashi whispered.
“Look, Kakashi, the kid in the corner, doesn’t the clan emblem on the clothes he wears belong to the Uchiha clan?” Kai also suppressed his voice knowing that the occasion was wrong.
However, several familiar Jōnin around heard Kai’s words and couldn’t help but look at Yelan in the corner.
He has black hair and black eyes, and the Uchiha clan emblem is printed on his dark coat, which is unmistakable.
At this moment Sarutobi Hiruzen said: “Then the examiner in the second exam will be Mitarashi Anko, and the examiner will be Uchiha Yelan…”
Uchiha Yelan, when this name appeared in Sarutobi Hiruzen’s mouth, everyone present looked at Yelan, with curiosity, confusion, questions, hatred, and gloating all kinds of looks that made people feel uncomfortable.
“Quiet! Do you have any questions?” Hiruzen showed his majesty as a Hokage, and instantly some of the whispering ninjas also shut up.
“Well, I want to ask what’s going on with this Uchiha ninja?” One ninja still raised a question.
“Uchiha Jōnin, he carried out a long-term mission before and just returned to the village recently, so there is nothing to make a fuss about.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen pointed out the ninja’s thoughts.
In fact, he also told the people present that Yelan had wiped out the clan in Uchiha.
He had left the village on a mission before.
But this did not satisfy everyone’s curiosity. Jōnin, although Hokage did not say whether it was a Special Jōnin or a formal Jōnin, he was also a core figure in the village. This guy looked so young, and now there were more doubts in his heart.
Yelan turned a blind eye to other people’s gazes and comments. He stood there quietly, like a sculpture.
At this time, a hand patted Yelan’s shoulder, and a kunoichi in her early twenties said, “It seems that your boy is my new colleague. I didn’t expect that you are a handsome guy from the Uchiha clan.”
Yelan resisted the urge to knock off the hand, looked at the woman in front of him who was wearing an earth-colored coat and a pineapple ponytail and said, “Mitarashi Anko Jōnin, please give me some advice in the next period of time.”
“No problem! No problem! I was worried that you would be hard to talk to? I’ll treat you to three-color meatballs later.” Mitarashi Anko patted Yelan on the shoulder several times. I didn’t expect this Uchiha to be so easy to talk to.
“Okay, so do you have any recommended Genin for this exam?” Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly missed the topic and asked the Jōnin who led the team.
Although Kakashi and others were surprised, they quickly reacted and announced the names of their subordinates, Genin.
“Okay, I understand.” When Hiruzen was about to dissolve the meeting, someone suddenly interrupted him.
“Sir Hokage, although I am a bit nosy, those students are all students I have taught. Although I admit that they do have some talents, it is still too early. They should perform more tasks and train themselves.” The person who spoke was none other than Iruka.
“When I became a Chūnin, I was 6 years younger than Naruto is now.” Kakashi knew who Iruka was most worried about.
“Naruto is different from you!”
“Hey, Captain.” Ignoring the quarrel between Iruka and Kakashi, Yelan took the initiative to talk to Kurenai.
No honorifics were used, and Anko didn’t care. “What’s up?”
“Is there anything you need to say about the second exam?”
“Ah, don’t worry so much about work. There is only one week left. Let’s just arrange it in the examination room later. The main thing is to monitor whether there are any cheating students during the examination.” Kurenai said.
“Well, if there’s nothing else to do today, I have some personal matters that need to be dealt with.”
“Okay, okay…” Before Kurenai could finish speaking, Yelan took steps towards Kakashi’s direction.
“What Iruka said is not unreasonable.” Hiruzen looked upset at the two people who had been arguing, “Then let’s prepare a preparatory exam for them.”
“Preliminary exam?” Before Iruka could react, Yelan walked directly in front of him.
“Then, Hokage-sama, leave Uchiha Sasuke’s preliminary exam to me.”
