How a Jonin ensured that they can pass their genins as there should be only 9 graduates?


Kakashi told the group that there is 66 per cent failure rate, that means only
9 of the 27 academy graduates can pass. And it's in the hand of jonin who is
instructing a group of 3, whether he/she want to pass his group or not. So
what if all jonin want to pass their group, then how the failure rate would be
maintained in that case?

The rate is a measurement, not a rule. If the 27 students had passed, they'd
all become genin. The 66% rate is just the statistics considering the rate of
graduation up to that point.
