Chapter Fifty-Eight: Long Hair
The kunai shot by the red bean is very fast, and the angle is also tricky. She was a kunai shot with the heart of killing Yagami Ki. Yagami didn't dodge, and in an instant, three kunai passed through his heart, head, and right lung at the same time.
The bitterness was unabated and nailed into the trunk of the tree, making a sound. But Mitarai Azuki's eyes widened in horror, she had obviously shot the vital point, but the person in front of her was unharmed.
"Hey, let you have this ability, Orochimaru probably gave you a disgusting experiment. After all, it was a special forbearance, and Hongdou immediately regained his composure and turned to provoke Yagami Qi.
"It's just the price of gaining power. The experiment wasn't nauseous, just a little painful. Raising his eyebrows, Yagami didn't care.
"Compared to other ways to gain power, this is the most convenient. ”
"It's like a discarded experimental defect. I could be considered lucky."
As soon as the provocative words were spoken, a huge fireball came at him.
"Fire Escape?
"Water escapes, chaotic waves!"
Because of the convergence of fire and water, violent water vapor spread through the woods. Red Bean looked around vigilantly, and soon spotted a humanoid shadow looming in the mist.
"Fire Escape, Dragon Fire Technique!" The huge flames slammed into the humanoid shadow in the water vapor in a straight line.
And when Red Bean's attention was diverted by the shadows, the water that had spread to the forest floor because of the water gradually turned into a human form behind her.
The slender fingers gently clasped the carotid artery of the red bean.
"Where are you looking? "The tip of the warm tongue **** the earlobe of the red bean.
What was hit by ninjutsu was nothing more than a shadow clone of Yagami Ki left in place.
"What the hell do you want to do!" Red Bean shouted unwillingly.
"Because the master is training our lovely junior brother, I don't want the senior sister to disturb them. "Subtle breathing, touching the back of the neck.
"Senior brother, Orochimaru, is he going to attack the candidates for the Zhongnin exam?"
"Hmm. It's an excellent guy named Sasuke Uchiha. The chief of this year's graduates, the only remaining bloodline of the Uchiha clan in Konoha. He has outstanding talent, and even his appearance is very handsome, isn't it perfect?"
"Uchiha Sasuke?" Azuki thought of a black-haired boy with a haughty expression all the time.
Taking advantage of Yagami's disambiguation, Azuki's hand slammed into his back elbow, and it felt as if it had hit water, and even the sound of splashing could be heard clearly.
Even the clothes on the elbows became wet.
"Let me tell you plainly, I have the ability to hydrate the Ghost Lantern Clan. So don't waste your efforts, physical skills don't work for me in the slightest. Yagami said in Azuki's ear, "By the way, the curse mark on your shoulder is a gift from your father." ”
"Cut...... Do you call this a gift?"
"I have it too, oh, right behind my shoulder, exactly the same position. ”
"Oh? Red Bean turned his face sideways and smiled mockingly, "It hurts when it happens." ”
"There's no way around that. The smiling Yagami said.
He noticed that the loud noise not far from the forest had stopped.
"Looks like the training is over. ”
"Now you can let me go. ”
"Huh?" Yagami said in a confused nasal voice.
"You have no intention of killing me. If the stalemate continues, the shadows will arrive soon, which will be not good for you. ”
"That's true. By the way, don't terminate the middle ninja exam. If the master gets angry, it will cause big trouble for Konoha. With that, Yagami let go of the hand that had been holding the carotid artery of the red bean.
The moment he let go, the red bean jumped away with all his strength.
"Orochimaru's visit to Konoha this time is fully prepared. So things can't be solved with a few teams of shadows. Leave it to Jiraiya and Tsunade to deal with. As far as I know, haven't they already returned to Konoha?"
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"I just wanted to make things more interesting. Yagami said and turned around, completely exposing his back behind Azuki.
He took a few steps, and suddenly turned his face sideways. That familiar feeling instantly gave Hongdou the illusion that the person in front of him was Orochimaru.
"I'm also among the candidates, if my sister finds me, I'll give my sister a special reward!"
After saying that, Yagami Ki showed a mischievous smile like a child playing a game.
Somewhere in the Forest of Death, the meadows were scorching at the blazing heat, and the trees were burning from the fire, releasing the smell of fire and ashes.
In the midst of the mess all over the ground, Sakura Haruno was at a loss as she held Sasuke, who was unconscious because of the curse mark.
"Naruto, Sasuke, ......"
In a panic, he turned back to look for support, only to find that his other partner had been pinned to a tree by kunai and was unconscious.
In an instant, the panicked girl cried bitterly.
"Wow...... Woohoo......"
However, the cry did not last long. Sakura Haruno sobbed and tried to stop crying, she gently placed Sasuke on the grass and untied Naruto who was hanging from the trunk.
By this time her crying had completely stopped, even though the tears had left clear tear stains on her dusty face.
It would have been found in such a visible place. Thinking so, Sakura Haruno picked up Naruto with one hand and Sasuke with the other. She put their arms on her shoulders, and just like that, she walked step by step to a relatively secluded position where the roots of the trees were intertwined.
'I will protect you...... It's like you've always asked me to stand behind you and protect me. Placing the two side by side, Sakura smiled.
'The next trap to be defended ......'
Standing up, Sakura Haruno began to get busy.
Soon the sky began to darken, and the sunlight no longer penetrated the dense canopy of the Dead Forest. Sakura Haruno begins her first night alone in the Forest of Death.
Because the location cannot be exposed, the Haruno Sakura did not make a fire. She put a cold towel on Naruto's and Sasuke's foreheads, but they showed no signs of waking up.
The darkness always gives people a special sense of fear, and even every shaking of the branches makes Sakura Haruno's nerves tense.
Sakura Haruno was like this, nervously keeping watch all night.
All of this was seen by Yagami who had been lying on a tree branch.
It's already morning. The tired Sakura Haruno didn't react until the sun was shining through the trees for a long time. She suddenly heard a noise somewhere, and turned nervously to see a squirrel munching on nuts on the grass.
"Please, don't scare me!" Sakura Haruno said softly. Suddenly, she thought of the location of her trap and nervously scared the squirrel away with kunai.
"Has the detonator been found?" Under the cover of the branches, the Otoshino trio looked at Sakura Haruno.
"No, it's not right"
"Whatever it is, just take a closer look. ”
Because of Sasuke's injury, the three of them appeared so blatantly in Sakura's field of vision.
"What are you going to do!"
Yagamiki, who was awakened by Sakura's scream, stretched his waist, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, nestled to the side, and looked at the scene in front of him with interest.
