Chapter 41 Before the Exam
Chapter 41 Before the Exam
The Forest of Death is a forest surrounded by an iron fence, with no-entry signs everywhere, and the trees are extremely large, at least twice as large as a normal forest in appearance, and the tall trees bring shadows to cover the sky and the sun, and there are few insects and beasts on the periphery, and it is not easy to see a bird, but it has just stopped on the tree and is hunted down by a large snake that hides near it at some point.
Gloomy fear, this is the greatest feeling that the Forest of Death gives to the candidates.
"This is the examination room for the second exam, the 44th exercise ground, also known as the Forest of Death!" Red Bean briefly introduced the forest to the candidates, so short that it only had one name.
The pressure of the Death Forest, Red Bean said from before the start that the maximum is only half of the qualified Yin Puff, so that Sakura, the most vulnerable among the novices among the candidates, couldn't help but worry about showing her appearance: "What a gloomy place." ”
The corners of Hongdou's mouth raised, and he said with a sneer: "Soon you will experience for yourself why this place is called the Forest of Death." ”
She loves to play tricks on people who are upset.
Naruto didn't care, and laughed at Azuki for 'intimidating' Sakura, learning Azuki's tone, twisting his body, and saying, "Soon you will experience for yourself why this place is called the Forest of Death." ”
"Haha, it's less scary, I don't think it's scary at all!"
"Really?" Azuki smiled very sweetly, like a flower girl, "You're really energetic" and then with this unusually sweet smile, he quickly pulled out a kunai and threw it at Naruto with a smile.
After the kunai slashed Naruto's face, he passed past many candidates, some of whom immediately reacted to the fact that their bodies tensed up before the kunai flew in, and they subconsciously prepared for battle, some people lacked the sense of prevention and got serious after the kunai stroke, and some people knew that the kunai had landed, so they reacted and panicked, and some of them had a relaxed expression from the time the kunai was ejaculated until they landed, and they never changed.
Yagami watched from the sidelines, and remembered the faces of those who reacted quickly, those who had been unimpressed, and those who observed the performance of others with Yagami Tsuki.
A person who reacts quickly means that he himself is experienced in many battles and is full of vigilance, such an enemy will not fall into some simple traps, and even if they fall into a relatively simple trap, it is very likely that it is only a disguise, and it takes a lot of attention to deal with such people.
The person who doesn't care about it means that he has full eyesight, and he can see that the rapid kunai is not harmful to him, and he is confident that he can dodge in advance even if there are some changes, such a person is generally stronger, but he may be a little arrogant, and he can use this to strike at him and set traps.
The person who observes others with the night god moon represents that he himself is dense and cautious, it is difficult for such a person to fall into some traps, and it is very difficult to design such a person, but at the same time, such a person is generally not very strong, at least he knows that he is not the most powerful person, so he will not relax on the slightest bit of information, whether it is to design others or to protect himself.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Naruto, he is looking at the red bean that appeared behind him at some point with a panicked face, and his mouth grows, but he can't say anything.
"Children like you usually die young." Red Bean slowly stroked Naruto's face with one hand, and his tone was very gentle, "And spurted out my favorite red blood." ”
As he spoke, he ran a finger over the blood left behind by Naruto's slashing by the kunai, moving up little by little.
Suddenly, Azuki turned around quickly, his eyes were not as casual as Fang Cai bullying Naruto, he became serious, and pulled out another kunai with his hand, and was about to throw it out.
But before she could make a move, she stopped, because a long, non-human tongue was wrapped in a kunai and sent it to her.
"Kunai will be returned to you" A woman in a hat behind Azuki said, holding the hat with one hand and returning it to Azuki Kunai with her long tongue.
"Oh, I deliberately returned it, thank you so much." Azuki's face changed back to his original smiling appearance, like a master of changing faces, "But ah, you'd better not stand behind me while releasing a murderous aura, if you don't want to die early at a young age," he said, taking the kunai who came back from the man.
The man's tongue was handed back to the red bean kunai and quickly recovered, obviously the long tongue was withdrawn, but the face did not grow a little, "I'm sorry, I can't help but get excited when I see the red blood, and you also cut my most precious hair, I can't help but be too excited"
"I'm so sorry."
The man turned around and walked away without hesitation.
Needless to say, this person was disguised by Orochimaru, and Yagami Moon was already prepared for this, and said to Ya and Hinata, "Have you all recorded it?" ”
"Well, I've already written down the color of his chakra, fortunately Yue asked us to prepare, otherwise I really didn't know that such a master would also come to take the middle ninja exam." Hinata closed her eyes that had just opened her eyes and wiped the cold sweat that flowed from her head.
"I also made a note of his taste, this man is so horrible! I really don't want to fight him if I could! "I've never been afraid of the thick teeth of the sky, for the murderous aura of the shadow-level master's big snake pill, even a little bit is not something that the current teeth can bear, it's an exam now, and the big snake pill won't make too strange appearances, otherwise the big snake pill that releases the murderous aura with all its strength can directly scare the teeth to the effect of almost immobilization.
"Just remember!" Night God Moon was also sweating profusely, swallowing saliva, if it wasn't for Orochimaru's real full strength, what kind of power would happen when Orochimaru moved with all his might?
"Thankfully, I had Tooth and Hinata remember Orochimaru's information before this incident." Whether it's the taste or the color of the chakra observed by Hinata's white eyes, it's not just done after such an amazing event happens now, but the night god moon pretends to feel that there are many powerful enemies here, so that Fang and Hinata are prepared in advance, first Fang and Night God Moon use their bodies to block in front of Hinata, and then let Hinata use their white eyes to observe many opponents that Night God Moon thinks are not weak, and then take Fang, under the pretext of going to chat with other newcomers, under the pretext of going to chat with other newcomers, walk in front of some opponents, Of course, I have already told the tooth beforehand what kind of person tastes.
Orochimaru is naturally in it, in fact, the biggest purpose of the night god moon is also him, and observing other so-called opponents who are not weak is just a pretense, just so that Orochimaru will not have any doubts or curiosity because he found that Ya Hinata has observed him, after all, for Orochimaru, no matter how natural the disguise of the teeth is, and how secret the method of the two of them is to cover Hinata's gaze, they will not escape from Orochimaru's sight, and it is impossible not to be discovered by Orochimaru.
But with such a disguise, it will seem like a team of perceptual ninjas who are a little worried about the enemy's strength to make some preparations in advance, which is very normal, although Orochimaru will find out, but it will not be too strange, otherwise if Orochimaru is perceived alone, it will inevitably not be considered that the three of them have discovered Orochimaru's secret or something, maybe they will come directly to the door regardless of Sasuke first.
Of course, this is also a certain risk, but Yashenyue thinks that such a risk is worth taking! Remembering Orochimaru's information can effectively avoid encounters with Orochimaru in this Zhongninja exam, at least not because Orochimaru passed by and found the three of them in the Night God Moon, and then they were disposed of, compared to such benefits, this risk is really nothing.
As for the danger of probing after this incident, because in the eyes of ninjas, it is best not to detect him casually if someone with a certain degree of danger is concerned, because this will cause his hostility, and he may even find you because of reasons such as not going well in his heart, so when facing some powerful people, it is the basic principle of not probing and delving deeply, except for Naruto, of course.
So through this means, Night God Moon successfully established an image in Orochimaru's heart of a squad that has a lot of confidence in his own reconnaissance ability and a lack of confidence in his combat ability, even if he really faces Orochimaru, he may give himself more probability of survival because of Orochimaru's intelligence errors.
At the same time, he also showed his more far-sighted side in front of the troublesome Fang, at least at some critical times, the opinions of the night god moon will more profoundly affect the judgment of the tooth, saving him from provoking others everywhere (such as Iairo).
"Then I'll send you these things before the second exam starts." The small anomaly couldn't attract the attention of Azuki at all, because there were too many geniuses among the ninjas, such as Kakashi, who became a shinobi at the age of twelve, and Itachi, who helped destroy her entire clan at the age of 13 or 4, so she didn't know that the person in front of her was Orochimaru, who she thought about day and night.
"It's a consent form." Hongdou's expression became formal, and he took out a stack of paper from his arms and said, "Those who take the exam must first sign this consent form. ”
"Why?" Naruto's momentum helped many people ask what was on their minds.
"Because there's a good chance that there will be dead people next, I'm going to ask for your consent first." Hongdou may not have been a serious person in the first place, so he didn't maintain a serious appearance for long before he smiled again and said, "Otherwise, it's all my responsibility, ahahaha"
"In other words, it's a death agreement," Fang said through clenched teeth, "Is that what it means to be such a dangerous exam?" ”
Fang was hit a lot, and his originally unscrupulous mind couldn't help but restrain a little, the most important thing was that he originally didn't care about the so-called powerful enemy of Night God Moon, and then he was hit hard by the person in Orochimaru's disguise.
"Now let's start explaining the rules for the second exam." Hongdou handed the consent form to each candidate one after another, and said, "To put it simply, it is the ultimate survival trial. ”
As he spoke, he opened a map with a picture of the Forest of Death and said: "This No. 44 exercise field has a total of 44 entrances, the internal environment includes rivers and forests, and there is a tall tower in the center, from the tower to the entrances of each gate is about ten kilometers, in this limited area, there is a knockout game, the content of which is - a scroll battle with unlimited means!" ”
"There are scrolls such as the Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth, and what you have to compete for are these two scrolls, a total of 26 teams have passed the first exam, half of them have the Book of Heaven, and half of them have the Book of Earth, we will give each team a scroll, simply put, they will compete with each other."
"And then?" Sasuke didn't care about Orochimaru, who obviously showed good strength, or the red bean examiner, and he was still very arrogant when he hadn't experienced Xiao Li's ravage, and asked Red Bean directly: "What are the qualifications?" ”
The red bean itself was very arrogant, and he didn't care about Sasuke's rudeness, and replied: "The team of three people will carry the two books of heaven and earth to the central tower together." ”
"In other words, at least half of the people will be eliminated" Sakura keenly noticed this, it seems that it is good to snatch one thing, but in fact, it is necessary to ensure that all three people survive, and grab the scroll from the other three, but where will the robbed person be willing? If one of the three kills one of them in exchange for his life, even if his side grabs the scroll, it will be a failure, and it may even be inferior to those who were robbed, at least as long as those people are alive, they will still snatch it from others.
At the same time, injuries also affect the team, after all, one person has to walk through the woods with all kinds of fierce beasts after being injured, and he has to face the robbery of other ninjas, and being injured is basically a burden.
"And there's a time limit!" Hongdou continued to increase the difficulty under this difficult condition: "This second exam has a time limit of 120 hours, which is exactly five days. ”
"And it's really unlikely that all 13 squads will pass." Hinata Ninji recognized this first.
"The daily actions will be longer and longer, the travel distance will be shorter and shorter, and everyone's rest time will be less and less, which seems to be quite strict." Xiao Li looked very interested, and finally opened his mouth directly.
"Coupled with the fact that there are enemies all around, it is extremely difficult to get a good night's sleep." Sasuke is also well aware of this, and his main concern is the enemy side.
"In the battle for the scroll, it goes without saying that you are injured, and in the face of such a harsh environment, it is not uncommon for even the dead to be killed." Azuki added.
"Can that abstain on the way?" Shikamaru was keenly aware of the problem, in the vast forest, how could he casually find an examiner to abstain?
"According to the rules, you are not allowed to retreat on the way, and you will have to stay in the forest for five days." Azuki smiled, but his tone was close to schadenfreude.
"It's really troublesome!" Although Shikamaru expected such conditions, he still felt troublesome, not only lazy, but too many problems, and too many things to pay attention to.
"So, by the way, I'll tell you about the conditions for elimination." The red beans are like the candidates one by one.
"First of all, first, the team that can't reach the central tower with the two scrolls of heaven and earth together within the time frame."
"Second, the team that has lost its members may have a team of people who can't continue to fight."
"Also, to add, it's absolutely not allowed to peek at the contents of the scroll until you reach the central tower."
That's it! Take three written consent forms to the hut over there and exchange them for a scroll, and then you pick any entrance, wait for the signal to enter the exercise ground together."
"Finally, a word of advice." The long talk of the red bean meeting is obviously boring, but because it has to be done, I have to put it all aside, and now that it's finally all over, I immediately breathe a sigh of relief and smile.
"Don't die!"
