Chapter 576 Kirov airship!
Konoha!

"Finally home!"

Naruto stood on the busy street and stretched, his tone extremely relaxed.

Only after going out will you realize how good Konoha is.

It's no wonder Naruto is like this.

Because outside, both the food and accommodation are very bad.

For example, Konoha is like a big city, and the Wave Country is like a remote area where electricity is not even widely available.

"Hey, why are there so many people?"

Sakura noticed something was wrong.

There are so many people!

Although there are already a lot of people coming and going in Konoha.

But there are a lot of people here today, and quite a few of them are ninjas from other villages.

sky.

Boo!
The messenger eagle circled and issued the call-to-arms signal.

Yes, the Chunin Exam that Douhei had been waiting for is about to begin.

However, this time, the Chunin Exam will definitely be beyond everyone's expectations.

Orochimaru!
Action has now been taken.

Although his whereabouts were secretive, he knew in advance that the other party was going to cause trouble, so of course he was able to keep a close eye on him.

They have something they need each other to do.

Killed the Fourth Kazekage Rasa!
The castle tower had been waiting for this opportunity, but no one knew how long they had been waiting.

If the other party didn't die, Ye Cang would have no chance of getting promoted.

From the time she joined the castle tower until now, she has never forgotten to return to the Sand Village.

It's only because of Luo Sha's existence that we can't go beyond the line.

But once the other person dies, the situation is different.

Although she couldn't return to the village, she had been continuously training ninjas from the Wind Country. With the huge resource support of the castle tower, Ye Cang had more than a thousand ninjas from the Wind Country under his command.

She has also been bribing and threatening the forces of the Wind Kingdom in preparation for her rise to power.

It's not like the Sand Ninjas weren't aware of her movements.

But there was nothing to be done, because Ye Cang had the castle tower behind him, he had money, people and power, and he was no match for the Sand Ninjas.

However, with the presence of Luo Sha, the Wind Shadow, she was always cautious and did not dare to make any big moves.

Once the opponent dies, he can immediately compete for the position of Wind Shadow like a tiger out of the cage, and he will have no opponent.

She has the qualifications!
At first, she was only "stationed" in the castle tower and was not expelled from the Sand Ninja.

This is a deliberate loophole.

At the same time, the castle tower will also intervene in Konoha's collapse plan this time, making it a real "collapse", rather than just accurately cutting off the "rotten meat" as Orochimaru planned, making it a windmill driven by new wind.

This was also Tang Ping's previous layout.

If Kotoamatsukami and the Heaven's Curse Seal had been used to modify his personality and memory, he might not have launched this plan because he wanted his teacher to die in a "dignified" way and to help Konoha at the same time.

In the original plot, this plan caused no other losses to Konoha except the destruction of some buildings and the deaths of some ninjas. Instead, it brought huge gains.

Not only did it allow Sarutobi Hiruzen to die with dignity, but he also allowed him to sacrifice himself as a "protector of Konoha", inspiring countless new generations.

The key point is that he also cut the Sand Ninja who was recovering his strength, forcing him to have no choice but to follow Konoha obediently.

In the original plot, the Sand Ninja helped in the battle to recapture Sasuke after Konoha's collapse plan, and later asked Konoha to rescue Gaara, which actually hinted at the fate of the Sand Ninja.

All we can say is that Konoha is the one that benefits the most from the Konoha collapse plan.

But if the castle tower intervenes, the situation will become unpredictable.

Anyway, Tang Ping just wanted to see how Liudao would help him cheat this time.

It's impossible to let Nagato watch the Chunin Exams and then directly do a 'Reincarnation', right...?
At this time, a group of Chunins and Jonins on duty gathered in the Hokage's office.

"Everyone, who among you would like to nominate your own disciples to participate in this joint Chunin exam?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled smoke before asking everyone.

If you are promoted normally, it will take quite a while to go from Genin to Chunin.

But there are shortcuts!

That was the Chunin Exam.

As long as you perform well, you can be directly promoted to Chunin.

This time it's the Joint Chunin Exam.

However, there are only Sand Ninja and Konoha, unlike the one more than ten years ago, which was held by Sand Ninja, Konoha, and Iwagakure together.

If a Genin wants to participate, he must be recommended by the team leader, otherwise there is no chance at all.

"In the name of special jonin Kurenai Yuhi, I recommend Team 8...!" Kurenai Yuhi spoke. She had not left yet and was going to help her three students before leaving.

"In the name of the ninja Asuma Sarutobi, I recommend Team 10...!"

Asuma, who was dressed in a white robe and had a feminine temperament, also spoke.

"Kakashi, the above-mentioned ninja..."

Kakashi was too lazy to recommend the class he was in charge of.

"As expected of my lifelong rival, I, in the name of the ninja Might Guy, recommend Team Three..."

A voice that ruined the atmosphere rang out.

The jonin with thick eyebrows, a bowl-cut haircut and wearing a green tights looked at Kakashi with fiery eyes and spoke.

Metkai!
Naturally, also in the Hokage's office.

"Okay, let these new buds of Konoha prove the future of Konoha to the ninja world!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and agreed to the recommendations of the teachers in charge.

At this time, a large team also arrived in Konoha.

But not from the ground.

One after another, huge airships broke through the clouds and landed towards the distant sky tower area in Konoha.

Empty tower!

It is the product of the emergence of flying troops and airships.

A building specifically designed for its landing.

Of course, Konoha would not allow airships or flying troops to get close to the village, otherwise it would be troublesome if they caused trouble, so the sky tower was several kilometers away from the village.

If it weren't for convenience, they would actually prefer to keep the distance further.

Such a close distance made them feel insecure.

Even though it was several kilometers away, the huge airship as big as a mountain was still intimidating.

Because the airship in the castle tower is a bit weird.

Not only is it wrapped with a metal frame, it is also painted in the shape of a shark.

Yes, this is naturally the blueprint that Tang Ping drew after he made the airship by hand.

But this is a 'military' standard.

If it is used for transportation, it will not be like this, but it will be more inclined towards carrying capacity.

This type of airship has advantages in flexibility, maneuverability, speed, and strong defense. Its only drawback is that it is expensive and its transport capacity is not as good as that of ordinary airships.

However, this time it was not a trade, but the senior officials of the castle tower came to Konoha.

Ordinary senior executives would naturally not be so exaggerated.

But if the person coming is the 'Queen of Thunder and Fire', who is also the one in charge of the castle tower, then it is not surprising to see such a scene.

A total of ten Kirov-class airships!
Kirov class!

This is also the name written on the design drawing, although the castle tower itself does not know why its master chose such a name.

All major forces have airships!

After all, the castle tower has been for sale all the time, and some forces may even have built it themselves.

But compared to Kirov, it's no different from a toy.

A large number of Konoha villagers stopped and silently looked at the huge airship in the distance.

Although they could see airships normally, they had never seen this kind of airship, let alone ten of them appearing at the same time, which was simply extremely shocking.

If it is a transport airship, Konoha has quite a few of them, about a dozen in total.

But there is really no such thing as military grade.

At the same time they can't afford it because the price is too expensive.

Note that these Kirov airships have another function.

Air carrier!

Flying troops can take off directly from above without any assistance.

But this time, there was no flying unit.

If they really brought a flying unit, Konoha would have been on high alert long ago.

The people in the Hokage Building can naturally see what's happening here.

"What an eventful time it has been!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

The other party has not set foot in Konoha for so many years, and now he suddenly comes to watch the joint Chunin Exam. He doesn't think it is a good thing.
