Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 607 - 601 : A Mini-Test!



Chapter 607: Chapter 601 : A Mini-Test!

She wondered if it was a Genjutsu and tried disrupting her chakra. However, the scene in front of her didn\'t change. The other Genins as well as the Chunins in the room had the same question. None of them had seen winds doing anything close to what they were witnessing. They tried disrupting their chakra as well to ensure that they weren\'t in a Genjutsu. There were only four people in the room who had different thoughts.

Ibiki looked at the winds in front of him and thought, \'That\'s quite a show he has planned. Did Anko put him up to this? Still, isn\'t his control over the wind a bit too ridiculous? I don\'t think anyone in the Land of Wind can do something like this.\'

Gaara carefully observed the winds and noticed, \'The winds are moving just like my sand.\'

Orochimaru looked at the winds and analyzed, \'Marvellous! I have never seen such a high degree of control over the Wind. In addition, a high amount of Yin chakra is mixed in the winds, making everyone feel a chill and making it seem like the room temperature has dropped.

Interesting. To think that you\'d put him as the proctor of the next round, Sensei. Do you already know about my plans? No matter, this boy was causing me headaches. This is a good opportunity to eliminate him before the war begins!\'

And the last person who had some clue about what was happening had a peculiar expression on his face. Naruto looked at the winds and muttered softly, "Don\'t tell me it is big brother Fujin!"

He wondered whether he should call Fujin out. However, he shivered and thought, \'Let it be. I don\'t want to be thrown into the sky again.\'

Naruto chose to keep his mouth shut. In front of the room, the winds took the form of a human-shaped figure wearing a large cloak who was floating in the air! The only human-like features that could be seen were two glowing eyes.

Those glowing eyes scanned the room for a few moments before everyone in the room heard a whisper, "26 squads... The second part of the Chunin Exams begins now. The squads who have passed the first round go to Training Ground 44.

If anyone doesn\'t make it there in 15 minutes, then your entire squad will be disqualified. You are allowed to ask for anyone\'s help, but if anyone fights or causes any destruction or chaos in the village, then your entire squad will be disqualified and handed to Ibiki. Your time starts now!"

The human-like figure dispersed into winds after passing the message. Within a few seconds, the breeze inside the room and the chill everyone was feeling disappeared.

The entire room was stunned. No one expected an order to be given in such a manner. The impact it had was far greater than Ibiki\'s entrance.

Suddenly, everyone came to their senses and the genins quickly began reacting. Kiba exclaimed, "Shit! What was that? Since when could wind speak?"

Many others had the same reply. Shino appeared next to him and replied, "It\'s probably the proctor of our Second Exam. Anyway, we don\'t have time to waste. Let\'s get together with Hinata and move."

Someone from the Hidden Rain complained, "This is so unfair! The Hidden Leaf ninjas get an unfair advantage. They know where the training grounds are in their village!"

However, standing next to him, his teammate said, "Why bother crying? Can\'t we just follow them to the training ground?"

The ninja who complained immediately felt stupid. The ones who had taken the exam earlier knew about the location of the training ground. They immediately began moving.

Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke gathered together. Naruto immediately asked, "Do either of you know where the training ground 44 is?"

Both shook their heads. Naruto panicked and asked, "What do we do now? Should we follow them as well?"

Both Sakura and Sasuke looked at him like he was an idiot. He immediately became flustered and asked, "Why are you looking at me like this?"

Sakura answered, "Didn\'t you hear that figure? We can ask for help. Let\'s just ask Kakashi sensei. We won\'t need to worry about anyone leading us astray."

Naruto exclaimed in surprise, "That\'s right! Let\'s find Kakashi sensei quickly!"

They quickly rushed outside along with a few other Genin squads and found Kakashi along with other senseis. The Genins quickly approached their senseis and asked them about the location of the training ground 44.

The senseis were surprised to hear about the mini-test. Kakashi wondered, \'Who is the proctor for the second exam? For such a change to be made...\'

Kakashi quickly informed his students about the location. Sakura asked, "Sensei, do you know about anyone who can become wind?"

Kakashi was surprised by her question. He asked, "What do you mean?"

Sakura informed him about what happened in the exam hall after Ibiki\'s test was over. Kakashi was surprised again and analyzed, \'That sounds like a Wind clone. But a Wind clone looks like the user. Also, it can\'t reduce temperature. Who could do something like that?\'

Fujin\'s face appeared in Kakashi\'s head as he recalled the scene of Naruto flying towards him. However, he wasn\'t sure. Seeing Kakashi in thought, Sasuke said, "We don\'t have time right now, Sakura. We will leave now, Sensei."

Kakashi nodded as the Genins left. He sent a Shadow Clone behind them to ensure that they went in the right direction.

As the Genins left, the senseis were left alone once again. Asuma asked, "Who could control winds to such a degree?"

Kurenai shook her head and answered, "I don\'t think it was winds. It sounded more like a Genjutsu. I guess it might be someone from the Kurama clan. What do you think, Kakashi?"

Kakashi replied, "It\'s difficult to say. I sent a Shadow Clone behind them. So, we will know soon."

Asuma and Kurenai nodded.

The 78 Genins continued rushing through Konoha until they reached the outskirts. Anko was in the mini-camp when she noticed some people moving towards them in a rush. Fujin had his Space Time Sensing Technique active the entire time. So, he knew all about their movements.

Anko moved front and realized, \'The Genins are rushing here?\'

She looked towards Fujin and thought, \'So he wasn\'t lying. However, what arrangements did he make? Did he ask Ibiki to send them here? But that would be so boring. Also, why are they rushing here with such speed?\'

Anko became curious about what Fujin had done. Unfortunately, he didn\'t even pay any attention towards the Genins who were rushing here and instead kept reading the book he was holding. She looked away in annoyance and muttered, \'Continue acting mysterious!\'

The Genins who had taken the exam previously were the first ones to reach the Forest of Death. Behind them were the Genins who followed them. The last ones were the new Genins who asked for their senseis for information. As Fujin expected, everyone made it comfortably within the time limit.

Gaara, Kankuro and Temari were surprised to see Fujin. They recalled his appearance and information told to them in their father\'s office.

Lee, whose squad reached the Forest of Death at the 11th minute, noticed Fujin and said, "Look, Fujin is there."

Neji and Tenten noticed him as well. Tenten wondered, "Is he one of the examiners?"

Neji replied, "Could be. Or perhaps he could be the proctor."

Even though they had seen Fujin fight with Guy, they had only seen Fujin using Taijutsu. The last spar was the first time when they saw Fujin use Wind Release. And even then, Fujin mostly used Winds to enhance his own speed and used non-lethal attacks like Infinite Breakthrough jutsu. He didn\'t use his Wind Domain, Vacuum jutsus or even attacks like Blades of Wind jutsu since they would have forced Guy to open more Inner Gates. Hence, they couldn\'t connect the winds to Fujin like Naruto could.

Soon after them, Naruto\'s squad reached close to the Forest of Death. As they were running, Naruto saw Fujin immediately and said, "Crap! It is big brother Fujin!"

Sakura and Sasuke immediately heard him. Sakura asked, "The one you always keep talking about? Where is he?"

Naruto pointed towards Fujin and said, "Him, the one reading a book. He should be the Proctor of our next round."

Sasuke looked at Fujin and thought, \'So, he is the one who taught Naruto Wind jutsus and how to climb a tree. Still, how could he control winds like that? From Kakashi\'s expression, I don\'t think even he could do anything like that. First Might Guy and now him, how many strong ninjas are there?\'

Having seen Guy\'s speed and Fujin\'s application of Wind, Sasuke felt a lot more pressure.

Naruto warned nervously, "Don\'t annoy him. He can throw you across the village with a flick of his wrists. He can be very scary."

Sakura looked at Naruto and thought with surprise, \'So there is someone who even Naruto is scared of! But what does he mean by that? No one can throw someone across the village, right?\'

Around a minute after Naruto\'s squad reached, Karin\'s squad from Kusagakure reached the Forest of Death. They were the last ones to arrive. Fujin closed his book and got up. His movements were immediately noticed by the Genins as they had seen other examiners frequently looking at Fujin earlier.

Fujin walked in front of the Genins and said with a sly smile on his face, "I am Suzuki Fujin, the Proctor of the second round of the Chunin Selection Exam. The arena for this round will be the training ground 44, also known as the Forest of Death!"
