Chapter 39: Know Yourself
Heiji held the ball in the palm of his hand and began to control the chakra to gather in his palm continuously, and then quickly flow in different directions.
A large number of bulges began to appear on the surface of the ball, but as time passed, they did not explode.
A large amount of chakra was consumed in a short period of time, and Heiji was exhausted.
The rate of chakra production slowed down significantly as the mental exhaustion intensified.
Chakra is produced by the meridians in the body, plus the human spirit.
After eating three chakra fruits, the speed at which chakras are produced in the meridians has exceeded the mental endurance of Heiji.
Although the spirit ring worn on the little finger of the left hand has also been slightly upgraded, it is already a little inadequate.
"Let's go back and rest for the night...... I'm going to continue gathering information......"
Jiraiya swayed and walked in the direction of Konoha Village.
"The body of Jiraiya adult...... It's really iron......"
Looking at the back of Jiraiya, Pingji sighed secretly, ashamed of himself.
After hesitating for a long time, Heiji decided to be cheeky and return to the village.
Although face is important, you can't sleep in the wilderness and never return to Konoha Village, right?
Heiji moved slowly in the direction of the village, calming his nervousness.
The moon had slowly risen and hung cold and bright over the dark night.
In the dark, Pingji always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, but every time he turned back suddenly, he couldn't find any clues.
Could it be that I am too tired from cultivating today...... Are you hallucinating......
In the past, when an enemy appeared nearby, the system would prompt and issue the corresponding main quest or side quest.
Since the system does not have a corresponding prompt, maybe it is really that I am overly nervous and have a delusion......
Walking all the way to the streets of the village, the feeling of being watched in the dark did not disappear, but became clearer and stronger.
"Flat! You're back...... Haha, our level has finally grown up! ”
"yes...... Such a cute boy in Heiji...... Are you still worried that there are no beautiful girls who like it? ”
"Pingji, you have to stay away from that white-haired old pervert in the future, ...... today I saw him go in and out of Kabukicho twice......"
……
Listening to everyone's half-joking, half-concerned words, Pingji's ears were red and hot.
In other words, to be a disciple of Zilaiye, not only must you have a strong psychological quality, but you also have to be thick-skinned enough......
When I got home, I closed the door and closed the curtains again, and the feeling of being spied on was completely gone.
Lying on the bed, Heiji slowly closed his eyes and began to analyze what had happened in the past few days, so as to deduce what kind of identity the person who would peep at him today.
It seems that this happened after I met Jiraiya.
First of all, you can rule out traitorous ninjas such as Orochimaru, because once a renegade appears near you, the system will send a strong early warning.
Including in Konoha Hospital, Orochimaru transformed into a nurse and appeared behind Heiji, and he had already received a system prompt, so he was not too surprised.
And in the first exam, he was in the examination room with Pharmacist, and he also got a systematic warning.
Earlier, it was when Sunset Red took the eighth class near the cemetery to prepare to start wilderness survival training.
That was the first time that Heiji had passed the system's early warning, and he had detected the black-clothed traitor hiding behind a big tree not far away.
Since it's not Orochimaru, could it be someone from Shayin Village?
Being able to peek at Heiji in the dark without leaving a trace, whether it's Kankuro's puppet or Iara's Sand Eye, you can do it.
But what is the purpose of their peeking on themselves?
Of course, there is another possibility, which is also the last thing that Heiji wants to see.
A series of their own performances...... Rose to prominence in the second selection exam of the middle ninja...... He also received the honor of teaching ninjutsu by himself...... It has already attracted the attention of the top management of Konoha......
Of course, the high-level Konoha referred to here is naturally not the three generations of Hokage and the direct shadows under his command.
Will it be a "root" organization......?
Behind this disgusting mysterious organization, there is an even more disgusting man covered in bandages......
Shimura Danzo?!
At this moment, the only thing Heiji can talk about ** is that his identity is a member of the Konoha Shadow Division, and he is directly under the jurisdiction of the three generations of Hokage-sama.
If Shimura Danzou wants to make any small moves against himself, he can only sneak in and dare not come openly.
After all, the Hokage is the real number one person in Konoha Hidden Village, and it is also the vision that Shimura Danzou has always been looking for......
Before you know it, Heiji fell into a deep sleep.
After a day and a night of ninja selection exams, plus a day of practicing ninjutsu with Jiraiya, Heiji's spirit has collapsed too tightly, and now he finally has a chance to relax.
Outside the window, a dark shadow peered through the gap in the curtains, staring at Heiji, who had fallen into a deep sleep, and there was not the slightest emotion in his indifferent eyes.
……
In the early morning, the warm sunlight shines through the low-quality curtains with very poor shading, and sprinkles on the delicate faces that are so fair that they are almost transparent.
With a yawn, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and suddenly felt full of energy.
This is the third day of the second selection of the middle ninja exam, and there are still some lower ninja teams who have not completed the collection tasks of the "Book of Heaven" and "Book of Earth", and are still fighting to the death with other competitors in the Forest of Death.
Among them, there is the seventh class where Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha are located.
Speaking of which, the strength of their group should be far beyond the level of the average group, but because of the strong interference of Orochimaru and the three subordinate ninjas, they are still in the embarrassing situation of failing to complete the task.
"Without a strong enemy like Orochimaru and I-Airo, they should be able to complete the task easily......"
Forest of Death.
By a small clear river.
Naruto Uzumaki suddenly sneezed, then rubbed his nose and said in surprise, "I didn't catch a cold...... Is someone talking about me......"
"Naruto! Don't catch a fish yet! We're full, we're going to do our best to complete the task......"
Sasuke Uchiha glared at Naruto, and before he could finish his words, he also let out a loud sneeze abruptly.
"Looks like someone is talking about us...... We have to do our best...... If you can't pass the second selection, it will be a shame! ”
Next to a roaring bonfire, Sakura Haruno grilled fish skewers while shining a round makeup mirror in her palm to her face.
The hair cut by the shuriken looks messy and particularly eye-catching.
Pink hair that has been around for so long...... How much pocket money is spent on maintaining and caring for those hairs, and how much time and effort is spent...... Only Sakura Haruno knows it in her heart......
It's so distressing......
