Chapter 17: The Forest of Death, the Duel with the Grass Ninja

At 10 a.m. the next day, all the remaining candidates came to the 44th exercise ground. The 44th exercise site is completely fenced inside and is now at Gate 1. Mitarai Azuki stood in front of Gate 1 with a large group of shinobi.

"Well, it's exactly ten o'clock, and everyone is here. The contents of the second exam are now announced. Then Azuki nodded at a middle ninja, and then the middle ninja took out a large pile of papers, and then divided them one by one.

"Candidates who want to take the second exam must sign this consent form, because once this exam starts, you can't give up, and there is a high chance that there will be a dead person, so you have to get your consent first, as long as you sign this contract, then I don't have to be responsible for your safety. Of course, you can also skip the test, but in that case, you will be considered to be disqualified from the exam. Hehe. Then Azuki took out a map and said, "This is the terrain of the 44th exercise field." There are all kinds of traps and dangerous monsters, and the content of your exam is simply a survival limit challenge. Survive in the limited space of the 44th exercise ground. The goal is to seize the scroll by any means necessary. Saying this, Hongdou put away the map and took out two scrolls, one with the word "heaven" written on it, and the other with the word "earth" written on it.

"The Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth, your purpose is these two scrolls, and before you enter the 44th exercise ground in a while, you will be given a scroll, and among the 20 groups that have passed the first exam, 10 groups will hold the Book of Heaven and 10 groups will hold the Book of Earth. Each group has only one of the scrolls, which means that you have to snatch each other's scrolls! But within the time limit, the duration of this exam is 120 hours, which is five days. Red Bean said, holding up a pair of scrolls.

"Is it really up to you to take care of the supplies?" Sakura asked. ”

Hongdou nodded: "There are a lot of wild animals in the forest, but there are also a lot of man-eating beasts and poisonous flowers and poisonous weeds. ”

And so it was. Sakura confirmed her assumption yesterday. ”

"Looks like you're very well prepared, little sister. Red Bean narrowed his eyes and continued, "Now let's talk about the failures, first, the team that did not arrive at the final tower within five days with the Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth, and second, the team members died or all lost their combat effectiveness. In addition, the scrolls are absolutely not allowed to be seen until they reach the tower. Of course, if you want to see it, you can try it, but you are responsible for the consequences. Because after becoming a middle ninja, you have the opportunity to deal with confidential documents, which is also a test of whether you are trustworthy. agreed to sign the scroll, and on the last suggestion, "Hongdou's eyes lit up: "Don't die." ”

Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke received the Book of Heaven.

"Choose a door for yourself, and the exam starts at 11 noon. Red Bean said.

An hour later, Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke, and the other ninjas flew into the Forest of Death.

"There's a group of ninjas two hundred meters to the southeast, but they have a giant beast there, do they want to fight?" Sakura asked. ”

"Although it is reckless to say that it is reckless to start a war with other ninjas in a place where there are giant beasts at the beginning of the exam, but our purpose is to fight with the strong, take a step back, it's good to grab the scroll so early, after all, the longer the time drags on, the fewer scrolls will be left, the problem is ............"

"I don't know what kind of scroll the other party is. Sakura continued. ”

"What are you talking about, just kill all the enemies!" Naruto immediately headed in the direction Sakura was pointing.

"I'm a, though. But the action is also very decisive. Sasuke said.

"Hmm. If you are too cautious all the time, you will not be able to act. Sakura concluded. The two immediately followed suit.

……………………………………………………

"Whew, I'm so unlucky, why did I just come in and meet a giant bear. A hooded teenager said.

"Oh no, a group of ninjas from the northwest are moving this way, so fast!" said a red-haired girl with glasses suddenly panicked, obviously a sentient ninja, but the use of abilities is very jerky.

"Damn, do you want to rob while the fire is burning?" just now the group of them managed to drive the giant bear away, and suffered some injuries.

After a few seconds of panicking, Sakura-chan, Naruto, and Sasuke appeared in front of them.

"Kusashinobi?" Sasuke said.

The hooded boy beckoned to another companion and bit the red-haired girl's arm.

"Ah~~~," the red-haired girl cried.

Sakura and the others had a black line, what was the situation? But after a while, their eyes widened - their injuries were all healed at once!

"And such a medical ninja who shakes the M-type?" Sakura expressed shock. ”

"You run with the scrolls, and we'll solve it here. The hooded boy shouted to the red-haired girl, who nodded and ran.

"Sasuke, you chase, there's a giant beast over there, it won't be good if she gets eaten with the scroll, remember, no matter what the scroll is, you have to bring it back. Sakura said to Sasuke's order. ”

"Ah β€”β€”β€”β€”" Sasuke chased after him.

"Don't think about it!" shouted the hooded boy and another companion.

"Your opponent is us!" Naruto Sakura exchanged hands with the two............

……………………………………………………

The red-haired girl ran in a panic, and suddenlyβ€”

"Roarβ€”β€”β€”β€”" A wounded giant bear appeared, and it was the same one they had tried their best to drive away just now.

"Ahh

Fire Escape: Howe Fireball Techniqueβ€”β€”β€”β€”

A large fireball exploded the bear's head, and the bear fell to the ground with a heavy blow. The red-haired girl looked at Sasuke blankly, and although she knew that she was an enemy, she blushed unconsciously. Sasuke looked at the scroll that the red-haired girl had slid out of her clothesβ€”

"Is your scroll the same as ours?" Sasuke said, "but since Sakura said that even the same scroll is needed, then there must be a reason for her." Your companion has probably been defeated, so see for yourself. After Sasuke finished speaking, he picked up the red-haired girl's scroll and left, this is an exam, and the object is not an enemy, so unnecessary battles should be avoided as much as possible.

The red-haired girl is none other than Kari, and although Sasuke took the scroll but also saved her, Sasuke's cool appearance and behavior planted a seed in her heart............

……………………………………………………

Sakura and Naruto tackle their opponents and move on after meeting up with Sasuke.

"Sakura-chan, why do we have to collect the same scrolls?"

"It's very simple, I can't guarantee that we are the strongest, and even if we can't guarantee that we will win all the battles in the next battle, we need some spare scrolls, and if we can't do it, we can give the spare scrolls to the other party. Sakura explained earnestly. ”

"I see, Sakura-chan, you've always been able to think it through. Sasuke said.

"Ah, Sakura is so smart. Naruto said.

"You think everyone is a fool like you, idiot. Sasuke scoffed.

"What are you talking about?

"Actually, the extra scroll has another effect, it's ............" Sakura was stunned for a moment, "This time there is an enemy in the West who takes the initiative to approach, so fast, alone, without companions, or hiding from my senses." ”

"Anyway, strength, is it strong?" Sasuke said.

"I don't know, but the guy was much faster than we were, and it was clearly coming at us. Sakura said nervously. ”

"No matter what kind of enemy you are, I'm not afraid, just defeat them all!" Naruto said, waving his fist.

"Ah, stop and fight. Sasuke agreed.

"Well, the other party is too fast, we can't escape. Sakura agreed. ”

The three fell to the ground, waiting for the arrival of the other man.
