The final match was between Genma, Guy and Hayate. While Guy and Genma came from the same team they decided not to team up. Hayate on the other side was ready to fight them both at the same time. As the match was about to start tension was building up. Genma was thinking who to attack first, he doubted that Guy would go for him, Hayate seemed to always firstly defeat the strongest enemy so he would attack Guy probably. So he too decided to attack Hayate.
However his predictions were of as soon as match started Hayate jumped back and kept a maximal distance. Guy was following Hayate and Genma didn't even managed to move in that short amount of time. Genma decided to cut Hayate route. Genma started to run in oposite direction of Hayate. Hayate didn't have a time to dodge so he used his sword he hoped Genma would try to dodge, because he could be hurt a lot by this move. Genma was surprised by sudden action, he had to dodge because he could see what would happen if that landed. He know he wouldn't win in close combat against either of those and he was low on the senbons. Guy was getting closer to Hayate after all he was quicker than him, he eveb got some time when Genma attacked and dodged Hayate. Hayate finally started to fight. Guy even though he was close renge specialist couldn't break Hayate defenses and was under constant pressure from Hayate attacks. Genma was following the fight decided who should he attack. When suddenly Hayate managed to scratch Guys leg, it wouldn't leave a scar but the scratch was long from hip to knee. Guy was obviously in pain. And Genma knew if he wanted to win Hayate would need to completely tired out, so he throw his senbons stopping Hayate from knocking Guy out. Hayate had to deflect senbons with his sword, and had to dodge upcoming fist attack from Guy. Hayate knew that Guy couldn't possibly keep running after him with that much pain so he ran towards Genma, he only needed to be careful of Guy managing to follow him, which wasn't happening so far. Genma was ready he throw his senbons while Hayate rushed towards him. Hayate blocked most of them easily, one had hit in the left arm but he was still using his right one, and it didn't completely cut of his sensation from hand. Genma had to take his kunai and block upcoming sword attack. He know that he couldn't possibly hold Hayate for a long period of time, so he hoped Guy would reach them rather quickly.
However that did not happen, Guy was coming but his speed was majorly reduced. Genma in the meantime was using everything he had to buy time. He was out of senbons he only had a kunai to block attacks. Hayate then used one of his favorite moves Secret Sword: Moonlight.
Genma was knocked out just as Guy had come to help him. Guy immediately knew he was screwed he just lost ally and he came in close distance of enemy. Guy did not last long, but he did managed to land a few hits on Hayate left side because the senbon in Hayate left hand but he didn't have a solution for Hayates attacks. The match was over with Hayate as only standing left. The crowd was loud they were chearing for him. Mito smiled happily at him, she knew that he deserved this, she never wanted him to be sick and to weaken with his sickness he was the best Swordsman of Konoha in her opinion.
As the finals were over Hokage, Orochimaru and Mito had to have a talk about who made it to chunin. Tha announcement would be tommorow in the Hokage office but they still had to discuss everything. So they left after saying congratulations to Hayate.
In the hospital where laid all of unconscious genin. Group of Anbu took one genin to investigation. Fu was that genin. He could not report to Danzo, because he did not have means to do it. Anbu were throughout, they took everything that looked suspicious.
Shisui wake up first, he had only one thing on his mind, and he was going to find out everything about that. He opened up his doors of hospital room and headed to informations. He asked where Obito was staying. He got directions and was now in front of the door, he wonder if he really wanted to know. He comfired it with himself he had to know, he slowly entered the room, Obito was still unconscious. Shisui wondered if it was because he overused his sharingan. But Shisui could wait. He wouldn't leave until he knew what he wanted to knew.
On the other side of village somebody had come back to village, he seemed relaxed and happy to be here. He headed straight to Hokage tower, because he just finished his long mission. He just wanted to relax as soon as possible so he would report first. He was surprised by the fact he missed the chunin exams, but he doubted anything would interest him there. He was leasurly walking towards Hokage Tower, he could hear civilians whisper something about how will he react and such frases. He knew that Tsunade had left, he felt regret but he couldn't just follow her, not right now, when the war is over, for sure.
He came in front of Hokage office and was surprised to see don't distribute sign on it. He could hear three voices arguing. Orochimaru, senseis and young girl. He was confused he never heard this young girls voice before. He leaned on the doors to hear the girl say:"Asuma, isn't ready to become chunin, all of us know that, you are worried for his selfestime, I get it, but if you gave him that chunin vest he will become more arogantan, overconfident and even more proud of himself while he didn't learn the best way to protect his team. " she suddenly stopped and said:" we are being eavesdroped. "
Both Hokage and Orochimaru were instantly on high alert, but Mito walked slowly toward the door, stopped right in front of them asking :" Who are you. ".
Jiraya was confused he was asked who he was through closed doors. He was supposed to answer the question without seeing the person who asked. Mito asked again :"Who are you, you didn't alert my seals, there are only two seals master in village and you don't fit neither of theirs chakra signals" Orochimaru stepped in closer to Mito and said:"it is fine, there is only one fool who could do that." Mito concluded this was Jiraya. But played like she didn't. She stepped back and towards Hokage, while Orochimaru lifted up remaking seals that Jiraya didn't break, and opened the doors. He looked younger than she espected. Mito was sitting behind the bunch of papers so he couldn't see her. But he could feel another presence in the office. Jiraya couldn't pinpoint where it was coming from. Jiraya spoke first :"I heard you were arguing so I just wanted to listen I didn't think I would be found out so quickly."
