Chapter 307: Naruto: I am Uchiha Shirou [307]
Chūnin Exam Venue.
"Look, it's Jonin Samui!"
"So cool!"
"She's so beautiful!"
As the striking figure of Samui appeared, the entire venue instantly erupted in excitement. Countless spectators enthusiastically focused on the ninja standing at the center, about to preside over the duel.
At the same time, information about Samui began to spread among the crowd.
"Jonin Samui is said to be the second strongest Lightning Release user in Konoha, second only to the Hokage."
"I heard that Samui and her companions originally hailed from the Hidden Cloud Village. They were about to attend the ninja academy there but were betrayed by their fellow villagers and sold to human traffickers. Luckily, they were rescued by Lord Shirou, which is how they ended up here..."
Standing at the center of the arena, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Samui surveyed the surroundings with her cold, sharp gaze. Her short blonde hair gleamed in the sunlight, and her confident demeanor caused her lips to curve slightly upward at the corners upon hearing the murmurs around her.
Meanwhile, the Hidden Cloud ninjas wore ugly expressions. After all, this was a shameful part of their history being aired in public.
"I now announce the start of the Chūnin Exam finals! First match, contestants, enter the arena!"
