Chapter 20: Chapter 20: The Shock of the Hokage
When ninjas of the same level fight, those with a kekkei genkai usually have a significant advantage!
And the Sharingan is undoubtedly one of the top kekkei genkai in the ninja world!
Looking at Uchiha Akira standing before him, with three shadow clones and the two-tomoe Sharingan, Uchiha Shisui's eyes flickered with a complex emotion.
"Shisui-sensei?"
After spending ten years in the simulator, Akira had finally mastered Shisui's Body Flicker Technique. Shisui's shock was understandable. But judging by his expression, Shisui seemed to be contemplating something more than just surprise, which made Akira look at him curiously.
"Akira, you've only been a Genin for just over two months, right?" Shisui suddenly asked, snapping out of his thoughts.
"Yes, that's correct," Uchiha Akira nodded.
"In just over two months, you've already reached the level of a Chunin, and you've even mastered my unique secret technique. With such talent, it's hard to estimate how far you could go in the future!" Shisui sighed in admiration.
Uchiha Akira remained silent, sensing that Shisui had something important to discuss with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have focused so much on Akira's abilities.
"With your current overall strength, you're already one of the top contenders at the Chunin level. Would you be interested in becoming a Chunin?" Shisui asked, looking directly at Akira.
"Here it comes..." Akira thought to himself.
"Shisui, what did you say? You want Uchiha Akira to represent the village in the Chunin Exam in the Village Hidden in the Clouds?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Shisui in surprise, seeking
confirmation.
"Yes, Lord Third Hokage," Shisui nodded affirmatively.
"I know that Uchiha Akira is a genius of the Uchiha clan, and he has already evolved his Sharingan to the two-tomoe state. But he's only six years old, and he's only been a ninja for a short time. You understand the importance of this Chunin Exam..." Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated, finding it hard to believe.
"Lord Hokage, have the three slots for the Village Hidden in the Clouds been decided?" Shisui asked without wasting any words.
"Yes, just yesterday, we finalized the three Genin who will be going to the Village Hidden in the Clouds," Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded.
Although the relationship between the upper echelons of the Hidden Leaf Village and the Uchiha clan had been growing increasingly tense, Sarutobi still held Uchiha Shisui, the descendant of his old friend Uchiha Kagami, in special regard.
Seeing Shisui's insistence on sending Uchiha Akira, Sarutobi, after a moment of silence, said, "In that case, let Uchiha Akira choose one of them to challenge. If he wins, he can represent the Hidden Leaf Village in the Chunin Exam."
Despite finding it unbelievable, Sarutobi trusted Shisui's judgment and felt it was only fair to give Akira a chance.
"I accept that condition," Shisui nodded in agreement.
Then, Hiruzen Sarutobi pulled out three ninja profiles and placed them before Shisui.
After taking a glance, Shisui turned and headed back to discuss the matter with Uchiha Akira.
