Chapter Twenty-Seven: Ye Naiyu

"The craft is good, Chiyo, have you ever learned to barbecue?"

Inside the hollow of the tree, Moth and Dai were nibbling on a few slices of sliced meat. It was the moth that made the sound, and as a foodie, she was particularly sensitive to this aspect.

Chiyo didn't take a stubble, he looked outside, and estimated that in a few moments, it would be completely dark, and then someone would have to keep vigil. At this time, while everyone was there, he asked, "How is your plan going?" ”

Flower Moth and Dai glanced at each other, then put down what they were holding and took out the map. Referring to the map, the two men told me about their plans.

After they finished speaking, Chiyo also understood that they were planning to push all the way.

In his opinion, the only merit of this plan was that they also knew to go to the Book of People before the battle, and to retreat after completing the mission.

However, Chiyo looked at Dai and Moth again.

"It's qualified," he thought to himself.

According to this plan, the Chiyo team will go straight to the nearest junction after finding the Book of People, then fight, grab the Book of Earth, and then return to the middle of the forest, and finally move towards the end.

In this way, there will be more battles, but this is exactly what Chiyo thinks, he had planned to train Moth and Dai well, since it is not feasible in this aspect of resourcefulness, let's focus on improving actual combat ability.

Chiyo glanced at her backpack and made a decision in her mind.

……

At night, I can't see my fingers. There was silence in the forest at this time, and occasionally a few unknown noises came from the darkness in the distance, and then quickly disappeared, and when the surrounding area was deserted again, you would have the idea that they had never appeared, and that what had just happened was just an illusion.

For the faint of heart or for those who are afraid of ghosts, such an environment is full of malice. Looking at the thick darkness, they will unconsciously think that there is some unknown existence hidden in it, and those things are watching you in the darkness without fear, waiting for the prey to be sent to the door.

Generally speaking, though, ninjas aren't afraid of ghosts.

Somewhere in Forest Sixteen, a team of three was sitting together, a burning fire in the middle.

At the top of the tree above them, a middle-aged man in an animal mask was looking at them with a little amusement. As a dark officer, his task in this exam was easy: transport the teams that had dropped out of the competition to the designated locations, and screen out some special talents.

Compared to his previous tasks, this was simply pediatric, so he was still in the mood to observe the performance of these shinobi.

The performance of these shinobi is good and bad, for example, the team under him, their performance belongs to the extremely poor category.

There are many slots, but the first is the problem of fire: they should not be lit at night.

Actually, if you are in a normal forest, there is no problem with this, but this is an experimental forest. The animals here are much larger than those in other places, and there is no fear of fire, so rashly igniting them without understanding this will only attract those large experimental animals, which will only add to the trouble.

Secondly, they set a lot of traps around, and two of the three people sitting by the fire were doppelgangers, apparently trying to use the rules of the exam to lure others into falling for it. Because intentional homicide is not allowed in the exam.

But that's what makes people laugh because they don't have to. This is the middle of Forest No. 16, far from the junction, even if someone is fooled and they are successfully caught, it is unlikely that they will obtain the Book of Heaven because of this, and the most likely thing is to do useless work and obtain the same Book of Earth as they have in their hands.

After watching for a while, and seeing that the beasts were indeed attracted to him, he shook his head and went away quietly.

He didn't take note of the team, because the Hokage's order was only for him to record the shinobi who performed well, and the bad ones didn't belong to him. Ninjas, only responsible for their own tasks.

……

The experimental forest is large, and in another place, Sakushige's team is replacing the night watchman.

Instead of lighting a fire in the ground and digging holes in the trees like Chiyo, the place they chose was the roots. Just by looking, you can easily spot some large trees with bare roots, and the gaps in them are more than enough to accommodate them. Although the environment is a little bad, but the ninja, the forbearance is over.

After entering, Hagi Sakumo did not sit down immediately, but looked outside from the gap and did not turn back until his teammates who had gone out disappeared.

"Why don't you come to the next vigil and let Ye Naiyu rest?" The teammate sitting inside suggested.

Hachiki shook his head: "She won't agree." ”

"But she's already hurt."

"Since she said she wasn't hurt, let's take it as such."

Seeing that his teammates wanted to say something, Qimu Shuomao stopped him: "Zhenhong, don't say these things in front of Ye Naiyu in the future." ”

Walking inside and sitting down, his tone was helpless: "She is more unwilling to accept that her dignity is hurt than physical pain." ”

"Besides, this time the middle ninja exam will not be life-threatening, since this is the case, then let her take the opportunity to exercise more."

"Oh? Shuo Mao, you don't mind that you always fail the middle ninja exam? ”

He shook his head, and although he couldn't see his face clearly in the dark, he replied in a firm tone: "I don't care! Aren't you like that, true red? ”

"Well, that's true." The little boy named True Red scratched his head. However, he still had some doubts about that teammate, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Hey, Shuo Mao." Why do you say Ye Naiyu cares so much about her strength? ”

"As a ninja, it's natural to care about strength."

"I know that, too, but that's not an ordinary concern, she's about to die."

Qimu Shuomao thought about it and was a little unsure: "Maybe it's because of my parents?" ”

This answer made Zhenhong even more confused: "What's the matter with your parents?" Don't forget, she's the same age as us. ”

Most of their parents died, and in the vast majority of cases, adults died in the war less than a year after giving birth.

Shuo Mao, all three of them are like this.

Zhenhong's meaning is very clear: "Although it is rude to say this, I really can't remember what my parents look like, Shuo Mao, you are like this, right?" ”

Hagi Shuomao nodded, he couldn't remember clearly.

"In that case, then Ye Naiyu should be the same."

"Could it be that Ye Naiyu remembered things earlier?" Thinking of the end, Sakumo Hagi could only come up with such a seemingly unreliable guess.
