Chapter 14: Clone Jutsu Exam? Watch My External Incarnation!
"It's Byakuya! And Sasuke!"
It was rare for Naruto not to pick a fight with Sasuke upon seeing him.
Normally, they would trade insults even if they just passed each other on the street.
"Byakuya, do you think I still have a chance?"
Naruto looked at Byakuya with pleading eyes, feeling utterly miserable inside.
He had just learned that the Graduation Exam would involve a random test of the Three Basic Jutsu.
Help! Who knows what the Three Basic Jutsu mean to Naruto!
"There should be a one-third chance of passing."
Byakuya said casually. After all, if the Transformation Jutsu was the test, Byakuya felt that Naruto might actually be able to do it.
But if he drew Clone Jutsu or Substitution Jutsu, then it's over!
The Nine-Tailed had a significant impact on Naruto, causing him to be unable to perform any Ninjutsu other than Transformation Jutsu.
"Really?"
As soon as Naruto heard that he still had a one-third chance, he perked up.
"I must pass the Genin exam!"
After Byakuya's encouragement, Naruto regained his confidence.
Anyway, with a one-third chance, it's not impossible not to draw it... "Uzumaki Naruto, your exam topic is Clone Jutsu!"
"Heh!"
Byakuya almost laughed out loud when he saw this scene.
As expected, someone was pulling strings.
He noticed that the teacher who drew the exam questions this time was the one who incited Naruto to steal the scroll of seals.
Mizuki!
During the previous draw, Transformation Jutsu had clearly been drawn, but Mizuki quickly swapped it for another.
Such a small trick, of course, couldn't escape his notice.
Naruto, on the other side, stood there dumbfounded, as if he had been dealt a heavy blow.
"Next, Uchiha Sasuke, Clone Jutsu!"
"Byakuya, still Clone Jutsu?"
Mizuki was a bit puzzled. Except for the first one, which wasn't Clone Jutsu, the next two were all Clone Jutsu!
Does this demon fox really have luck on his side?
"Sasuke, in that case, you go first."
Iruka, seeing this, let Sasuke go up to take the exam first, which also gave Naruto some time to prepare.
Before going on stage, Sasuke glanced at Byakuya proudly.
"Clone Jutsu!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Four clones appeared around Sasuke, a scene that stunned everyone present.
"That's amazing, he made four clones at once!"
"As expected of the 'former' top student, so impressive!"
Sasuke felt all sorts of awkwardness in his heart when he heard the words 'former top student'.
However, Sasuke then brightened up, thinking that this time, he would definitely win back everything he had lost.
Then Sasuke looked at Byakuya with a cold expression.
"Very good, very good, worthy of Uchiha Sasuke!"
Sasuke's performance surprised even Iruka and Mizuki.
It was quite extraordinary for someone his age to be able to create four clones.
"Sasuke, Clone Jutsu, full marks, you pass the exam!"
Iruka directly wrote 'Excellent' on Sasuke's score.
"Next, Byakuya!"
Iruka once again looked at Byakuya, this student who had brought him countless miracles.
The students below also looked over.
You know, Byakuya is now recognized as the strongest among them, and everyone wants to know how many clones Byakuya can create.
"Shikamaru, Shikamaru, how many do you think Byakuya can make?"
Choji asked curiously while eating snacks.
"I don't know, I guess it's not that simple!"
Although Shikamaru seemed uninterested, he knew.
Byakuya is definitely not the type of person who would make ten clones just because you made four.
"Hmph, I think Byakuya can definitely make at least a dozen!"
Sakura also said firmly after hearing their discussion.
"Nonsense, at least twenty!"
Ino and Sakura could even disagree on such a small matter.
"Teacher Mizuki, you were on a mission a while ago and aren't clear, but Byakuya is now arguably the strongest in our class!"
Iruka also started to look forward to it, and explained to Mizuki, who had just returned to the village.
"Is that so, the strongest!"
Mizuki appeared righteous on the surface, but secretly he was already planning his next move.
"External Incarnation!"
As Byakuya clapped his hands, a clone identical to Byakuya appeared on the field.
"Why is there only one?"
Iruka was a bit puzzled. Last time, when he fought Sasuke, Byakuya was able to create more than a dozen clones.
Why can he only make one clone now?
"What's going on, what's going on?"
The surrounding students also began to whisper.
"Teacher, I'm here!"
At this moment, Byakuya by the window greeted them.
Everyone was surprised to find that there was another Byakuya by the window.
"Two? Three? Wait, which one is real?"
Iruka was completely bewildered because he couldn't tell which one was the real body and which one was the clone.
Although Sasuke had created four clones earlier, Iruka could tell at a glance which one was a clone.
But with Byakuya, all the clones were almost identical.
There was no difference.
"Which of you is the real Byakuya?"
Iruka pointed at the three Byakuyas on the field, somewhat confused.
At this moment, the Third Hokage also opened the door and walked in.
"Hokage-sama!"
Iruka and the others immediately stood up when they saw the Third Hokage.
"No need to panic!"
"I'm just passing by, passing by."
The Third Hokage naturally wouldn't say that he rushed over after seeing this scene through his crystal ball.
