Chapter 48: Survival of the fittest

Dead Forest, surrounded by huge trees and many large wildlife.

The three of them kept moving towards the position of the tower, the location of the tower was obvious, and after entering the forest, all the teams were going in one direction.

The trio tried to avoid the aggressive wild animals as they carefully guarded their surroundings.

"Yifeng, shall we go directly to the Tower now?" Naruto asked, puzzled.

"Everyone is heading for the tower, and it's only there that it is most useful to set traps while waiting for the opponent." A wind duct.

Sakura said, "But there will be the most people over there, so it's dangerous in case of a scuffle." ”

"Let's take a look first, it's still far from the tower."

The three of them kept moving forward, and the distance from the entrance to the tower was only 10 kilometers, which was not too far for a ninja, but the three of them were struggling to move forward.

Before they could meet the ninjas of the other teams, the three of them were stopped by five huge tigers.

The fangs of the giant tiger are hideous, and each giant tiger is three or four meters tall, which is two feet tall.

"No, such a big tiger." Sakura exclaimed.

Naruto said, "Leave it to me." The technique of multiple shadow clones. ”

When Naruto was sealing, Ichikaze interrupted Naruto, "Leave some chakra, you may encounter other teams at any time in the Forest of Death, the shadow clone technique is too chakra-consuming, leave these giant tigers to me, you pay attention to your surroundings." ”

After saying that, Yifeng went straight on.

The giant tiger flowed and rushed straight over.

"One wind, be careful." Sakura Road.

Naruto muttered, "What, it's clearly his own show." ”

Sakura said angrily, "Do you think Ichikaze is you?" Yifeng uses physical arts, and the main thing he uses is physical strength. As long as you take a break, your physical strength will recover much faster than Chakra, and in this case, you should try to save Chakra to save your strength, stupid. ”

Naruto was unconvinced, "But my chakra is also recovering quickly." ”

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!"

A wind goes up and faces five giant tigers.

It was directly a heavy punch, and each punch was punched with a strong wind, accompanied by the shadow of the fist, and the speed made the giant tiger dizzy.

Although the five giant tigers were much larger than ordinary tigers, they were only at the beast level, and it didn't take much effort to knock down several giant tigers one by one with one punch.

Yifeng cut off a few pieces of flesh from a giant tiger, drained the blood, and tied it with a rope.

"Yifeng, what is this for?"

"It's our lunch in a moment, let's go, the corpse will soon attract other beasts, hurry away."

With a wave of his hand, the other two immediately followed.

The three of them chose a relatively safe place, lit a fire, cooked the tiger meat and ate it directly.

"This tiger meat is so unpalatable. It's still good for Ichiraku ramen. Naruto complained.

Ichifu: "What time is it, still thinking about eating ramen!" Hurry up and finish eating, we are in a hurry, I am afraid that the smell of meat will attract other teams, which is very dangerous. ”

Originally, it was taboo to make a fire in the forest to barbecue meat, but half a day had passed between the morning exam and the second exam, and everyone was already hungry.

Because there are no military food pills, the food can only be used for the past few days, but there is no worry about not finding food in the forest, and now the most worrying thing is to encounter other teams to attack.

It is most dangerous when eating, whether it is the taste of food or the smoke from starting a fire, it is easy to expose the location.

In addition, it is more dangerous to regenerate fire at night without supplementing food.

"Why haven't you met other teams yet, how can you get the [Book of Heaven] like this!" Naruto said.

"That's because everyone's entrance is different, it is estimated that it will take a while, the examiner gave us a full five days, it is to test our patience and endurance, the person who enters the second examination room may be hidden, or may create a trap waiting for us, and it is not as simple as you think to grab the scroll in someone else's hand. Then again, if you're so idle, can you finish your share of meat first? ”

When Naruto heard this, he quickly stuffed the tiger meat into his mouth and swallowed it in three or two clicks.

When eating, be sure to eat as soon as possible and at the same time have someone to watch.

After filling their stomachs, the three of them continued to move forward, and the more beasts they encountered, even some huge plants attacked violently.

Naruto was accidentally entangled in a branch of a tree and hung up, and Sakura next to him immediately saved Naruto with kunai cutting off the branch.

"Be careful, don't be clumsy." Sakura Road.

Naruto said, "Thank you, Sakura-chan, I didn't expect even plants to attack. ”

Sakura said, "You don't even know about this tree, and you don't know how you learned it at the academy. The tree entangles any creature that passes through it, and then absorbs the nutrients of the creature to feed itself. ”

Naruto scratched his head, "Did we learn this in school?" I want to sleep when I don't understand it. ”

Sakura looked like she had been defeated.

"This Forest of Death is very dangerous in itself, and even without other teams, it will not be easy to get past the Tower. ”

"We've been in for a while, I'm afraid we'll meet other teams soon, so be ready for battle." Sakura Road.

"That, Ichikaze, I want to pee." Naruto said.

When Sakura heard this, her face flushed, and she was a little embarrassed and said, "I...... I want to go too. ”

The corners of Yifeng's mouth twitched, but people have three urgencies, from morning to now, they have never been to the toilet, everyone is an ordinary person, and there must always be a convenient time.

Ichikaze remembered that in the original book, when Naruto went to the toilet, he was transformed into him by someone using a transformation technique, and Sasuke found out in time.

What should I do if I encounter such a situation myself?

There are no sentient ninjas on your team, and if another team approaches, it will be difficult to spot if someone leaves and uses the transformation technique to disguise themselves as teammates.

Even now, it is difficult to predict whether there will be enemies in ambush around.

Many ninjas are good at stealth, and Ichikaze has found his shortcomings in this regard.

You can't just be suspicious once your teammates go to the toilet, Naruto can still stare at it, Sakura is a girl, you can't stare at it.

I'm not Sasuke, so I don't have a chakra eye to see through the transformation technique.

Yifeng thought about it, and his eyes lit up.

Quickly sealed, Hai-戌-酉-申-未!

"Ninja * Psychic Technique!"

A giant wolf with shiny fur appeared in front of the trio.

The wolf king looked at the surroundings and was a little confused, what is the situation, where am I?

"In the forest, wild animals are the most sensitive, and if an enemy is approaching, the wolf cub should be able to know, although it is not a dog, but it also has a very sensitive nose."

Yifeng doesn't care if the wolf king agrees or not, so he calls it a little wolf.

I didn't expect the psychic beast that had not been subdued for a long time to come in handy so quickly.

Even with the Transfiguration Technique, the smell still can't be changed.

The wolf king was used as a dog, and he could only whine to express his dissatisfaction, and he never felt better when he saw a wind.

Subsequently, there was one more psychic beast in the three-person team.

Solved the physiological problem and continued to go.

With a little wolf with him, the speed of the three of them increased greatly, and the forest was indeed still a world of animals.

After a while, the wolf bared his teeth at a clearing in front of him.

"There are enemies, be on guard!" A wind duct.

Three ninjas suddenly sprang out of the hidden place in the forest, and the forehead guards and outfits should be ninjas from Takiyin Village.

"It's so unlucky, it's actually recognized, there's no way, who's in the hand of the scroll, take it out quickly."

"It turned out to be a miscellaneous fish, this sentence should be what I told you, take out the scroll obediently." Ichikaze was relieved to see that it was a Takikushi ninja.

As long as you don't meet the two teams of Orochimaru and I-Airo, the other teams won't be scared.

"Damn, the little ghost dares to be so arrogant, it seems that you are looking for death!"

The three of them were ambushed here, they saw that the three of them were young and immature in appearance, and they were probably novices who had just graduated, so they felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they wanted to sneak attack, but they didn't expect that Yifeng They had a psychic beast and saw through their disguise.

However, they are not worried, after all, the three of them look so immature, and it is estimated that their strength will not be much stronger.

One of them threw his shuriken and flew towards the trio.

Another Taki Shinobi sprints forward, and another is sealing, using ninjutsu.

The three of them retreated, avoiding the shuriken.

Ichifu: "Sakura is in charge of covering, the front one is given to Naruto, and the two in the back are handed over to me." ”

"Great!" Naruto excitedly said that he finally had a chance to show his skills.

With a command from the wind, the two teams immediately launched a fierce attack.

The little wolves are all watching from the side, but they don't dare to act without an order from Yifeng.

"Water Escape, Water Bullet!" The seal of the taki shinobi sent out many water balloon attacks.

Taki Shinobu is good at water escape, and this water combo is similar to the fire escape and fire bullet technique, but it is a water-based chakra attack.

Ipkaze was extremely fast, avoiding the person attacking in front, flashing a few water bombs, and getting close to the two Shinobu Taki behind.

The shinobu in front wanted to turn around and come to the rescue, but Naruto had already stepped forward.

"The technique of multiple shadow clones."

Dozens of Naruto are beating at the Taki shinobi in front!

After the two Taki Shinobi in the back were approached by Ichikaze, it was directly a hand-to-hand fight between the physical arts, and Ichikaze fought with the two, and he still had the upper hand with one against two, and from time to time Sakura sent out one or two shuriken sneak attacks on the side, disrupting the rhythm of the two Takishinobi.

"Damn, why is this little imp so strong!"

The two Taki shinobi who fought hand-to-hand with Ichikaze were shocked.

The Taki Shinobu who was beaten by Naruto was obviously not Naruto's opponent, and under the beating of dozens of Naruto, he turned into a pig's head and fainted to the ground.

After a few turns, Ichinkaze unleashes Konoha Whirlwind, kicking one of the ninjas away.

Another ninja tried to seal the seal, but was interrupted by a melee attack by a wind attack, and then knocked down with a great whirlwind of Konoha move.

"We surrender, we hand over the scroll."

The three of them obviously kicked the iron plate and obediently scooped up the scroll.

Yifeng picked it up and saw that it was actually the [Book of the Earth]!

"It's the same as us, isn't that useless?" Naruto said.

When the leader of the Taki Shinobu heard this, his eyes lit up, and he showed weakness and said: "Since it's useless, it's better to return it to us, there is a misunderstanding, we can also work together to grab someone else's [Book of Heaven]!" ”

Yifeng said: "How can it be useless!" Even if the [Book of Earth] can be collected just in case, if you encounter an invincible team, you can give a [Book of Earth] to show weakness, are you taking us for idiots? If we lose, will you give it back to us? It's already merciful not to kill you, stop using this little trick! ”

Ichikaze searched them again, and after confirming that there were no scrolls, he snatched the detonating charm from their ninja equipment and continued on his way with Naruto Sakura.

If you don't kill the three of them, it's just a competitive relationship, not a life-and-death enemy, all three of them are seriously injured and can't fight again, and the second exam will definitely be eliminated.

Survival of the fittest is the harsh reality faced by the candidates in the second session.
