(Hello people, small Author's note before we start the chapter. For the following chapters or even the entirety of the arc itself, Akira's POV will appear rarely, at most it'll be a Third Person POV that follows him, similarly to a decent portion of the Land Of Woods Arc. For the simple reason - That I do not want you to know what he is thinking or WHY he is doing what he is doing, for the most part. Whether that is an ominous reason or not I'll leave it for speculation lmao XD)

-Story Start-

-Third Person POV-

Following Morino Ibiki's congratulatory speech to the 32 teams that had passed the 1st stage of the Konoha's Chunin Exams, the room buzzed with a mixture of relief and anticipation.

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through, scattering papers everywhere.

The sound of kunai embedding themselves in the ceiling drew everyone's attention.

A large banner unfurled, reading "2nd Test Proctor" in bold, flashy letters.

A figure emerged from the whirlwind, a purple-haired Tokubetsu Jonin with an excited smirk.

"Heh? Anko-sensei?!" Sakura squeaked in surprise, rubbing her eyes to ensure she wasn't seeing things.

"That's right!" Anko confirmed with a bold point and a quick wink at Sakura.

Turning to face the room full of Genin, she placed her hands on her hips and announced, "Alright, fresh meat! Name's Mitarashi Anko, Tokubetsu Jonin, and your proctor for the 2nd phase of the Chunin Exams!"

Quickly, her eyes leveled a glare on the loaded room, and her eyes twitched.

Turning to Ibiki, she complained, "32 Teams left? Ibiki you've made it too easy this time!"

He shrugged with an easygoing smirk, "We've got some exceptional ones this time... As well as a few disruptors." He sent a knowing look at Akira's smirking visage for but a moment.

A displeased pout on her face, Anko rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly, "That so...?"

With a quick mood swing fitting of herself, she pointed at the participants, "Well! It doesn't matter! By the end of the next test, you'll be cut out by at least two-thirds!" She exclaimed with a wicked grin.

Groans of displeasure as well as nervous gulps echoed in the room at that foreboding claim.

As Anko gleefully let the weight of her words sink in, her booming and commanding voice broke them out of their stupor, "Now then! Let us not dally any longer and follow me! Right now! No delay! Chop chop!" She enthusiastically gestured as she waited for no one and headed out the door.

Over ninety Genin scrambled in a rushed and crowded chase after the Tokubetsu Jonin, her cackling at the sounds of hundreds of feet scrambling to catch up to her echoed through the Academy's halls.

Truly, this was the perfect job for her.

-Shikamaru POV-

Honestly, this is a real drag.

The whole Chunin Exams are nothing but a headache.

I'd have preferred if it were all in one place, one test, and just get it over with.
