Chapter Fifty-Eight: The First Strike
Chapter Fifty-Eight
"The above are the rules of the second exam, there are a total of forty-four locked entrances to this training ground, after exchanging the three consent letters of a squad for a scroll, you can each choose an entrance, and when the time is up, enter the training ground!" After Mitarai Azuki explained the rules, he added, "One last piece of advice for you - don't die inside!" ”
"Let's start collecting the scrolls!"
At this time, in the cabin on the outside of the fence, the invigilator Nakashinobi had completely blocked the door with a black cloth and shouted at many candidates.
After signing the consent form, the candidates entered the cabin in small groups, and the other candidates were not allowed to approach, so it was difficult to find out what kind of scroll the team entering the cabin was holding.
"Although theoretically there may be a maximum of twelve squads to pass this exam, in reality, because of the uncertainty about the scroll held by the target, all the candidates in this exam are considered potential enemies!" Uchiha Sasuke signed the consent form while observing the candidates who entered the cabin, thinking in his heart: "And as long as you grab one more scroll, you will eliminate two groups of squads together, this is the second exam, and the powerful Shinobi can use this to clear the redundant competitors and clear the obstacles for the next exam, 'eliminate more than half', it seems that the examiner didn't say a big thing!" ”
…………
"Ino, Dingji, sign it quickly, and then we'll go and get the scroll as much as we can!" After Shikamaru received the consent form from Mitarai Red Bean's hand, he just roughly swept the contents, quickly signed his name on it, and urged Ino and Dingji.
Ding Ji and Ino looked at Shikamaru with some doubts, but seeing that he was urging, out of trust that had been cultivated through the correctness of Shikamaru's decision-making for a long time, they immediately signed their names, handed over the consent form to Shikamaru, and then followed him into the cabin to receive the scroll.
The wooden house outside the fence can be said to be very simple, and what obscures the view of the candidates is only a wide black cloth, and there are no doors on either side.
Shikamaru and Dingji, Ino are the second team to enter the cabin, and the three of them are the Sand Hidden Team led by Iairo, who is a human pillar force, and I Airo is not afraid of any forbearance at all, and in view of their own special mission, although it is a consent letter related to their lives, the three of them still did not hesitate to sign their names quickly, as the first candidate team to enter the cabin.
After the three of them came out of the wooden house to receive the scroll, they happened to meet with the three of them, and when I saw this, I Ai Luo stopped slightly, and the attitude of the tenth class to sign the consent letter obviously revealed his strong confidence.
Unexpectedly, I Airo actually nodded lightly to Shikamaru, which was regarded as a greeting, although Shikamaru was a little surprised, but out of politeness, he also nodded in return.
After seeing Shikamaru nodding in return, Airo turned his head and walked away quickly, Kankuro and Temari looked at each other, and Temari couldn't help but look at Shikamaru thoughtfully.
Feeling the gaze from Temari, Shikamaru withdrew his gaze from Iaira's body, looked at the other party, and after the eyes met for a short time, Temari glared at Shikamaru fiercely, and then looked away, and left closely with Kankuro's footsteps with Iaira.
"Who are those three!?" Ino turned his head to look at the backs of the three departing Sand Hide, especially Temari, who has long blond hair, but has a few playful braids on his head, wearing a close-fitting dress, and looks like a bumpy figure, compared to the young Ino, Temari, who is already sixteen years old, already has a feminine style, which makes her voice a little strange: "Are they the Sand Hidden Ninja you said not long ago?" ”
"Yes," Shikamaru nodded, and after seeing Ino Tanguchi sipping slightly, looking unconvinced, he explained, "The one who carries the gourd is a fierce enemy." ”
…………
"That Konoha ninja named Nara Shikamaru is dead, and this monster is already interested in him!" Kankuro, who had already turned to leave, sneered, remembering my Airo's behavior before, and felt sorry for Shikamaru in his heart: "But I still hope not to meet him in this exam, my Airo is crazy, but the six relatives don't recognize it." ”
Shikamaru naturally didn't know that Kankuro had already marked him with death in his heart at this time, and after entering the cabin, he slowly took out the consent form from the ninja bag and handed it to the two invigilators sitting in the cabin, while carefully looking at the environment of the cabin, and finally under the urging of the invigilator, he finally handed the consent form to the other party in exchange for a scroll of the earth.
After receiving the scroll handed over by the invigilator, Shikamaru directly put it into his ninja bag, and for this, Ino and Ding Ji did not have the slightest objection, after all, among the three, Shikamaru, as the leader, is the best in terms of strength and intelligence.
…………
"It's a battle for survival in the wild," Inuzuka played with the consent form in his hand, glanced at the direction of Otoshinobi and Rain Shinobi candidates, and said with a sneer, "This is exactly what we are good at!" ”
"Let's hurry up and submit the consent form!" Shino, who has always been calm, saw that Shikamaru's tenth class quickly signed the consent form and received the scroll, and after frowning and thinking, she suddenly realized, and urged Inuzuka tooth with a little eagerness.
Seeing Inuzuka looking at him with some confusion, Shino Oilgirl explained in a low voice: "Do you remember what Morino Biki said during the first exam? ”
"'Intelligence is sometimes more important than a ninja's life', how can that little black cloth stop a ninja's detection!?" The oil girl Shino stared at Inuzuka meaningfully, and said, "The person who receives the scroll will have more time to probe the information and know what kind of scroll is in the hands of others!" ”
"I see, no wonder that Shikamaru guy almost didn't even read the consent form, so he urged Dingji and Ino to sign." At this time, the three people in the tenth class where Shikamaru was had already obtained the scroll, and they hurriedly walked out of the cabin, Inuzuka Ya saw this, thinking of Shikamaru's table before, and suddenly said.
"Hinata's eyes can see what scrolls those candidates are holding, but we need to know what kind of scrolls we are holding before we can choose a target." The oil girl Shino raised her right hand, her index finger was erected, Inuzuka and Hinata Hinata looked carefully, and found that there was a small black worm on it: "This is a female parasite, there is almost no smell on the body, only the male parasite can smell it." ”
"Let's get the scrolls first, and then we can use the white eyes of Guò Hinata to find out where the scrolls of the other teams are, and if there is a team that is paired with our scrolls, I will secretly put the female parasite on them." The oil girl Shino quietly explained her plan to her companions.
Hearing this, Inuzuka nodded, turned back to Hinata Hinata who was slightly uneasy because of the second exam, and said, "You have to work hard, Hinata!" ”
Hinata Hinata agreed softly, Inuzuka Ya saw this, sighed, withdrew his attention from the other party's body, and turned his gaze, but noticed the kunai and shuriken falling from the ground, which were thrown by Azuki and Shikamaru respectively before.
When Inuzuka saw the shuriken, he didn't know what he thought, chuckled, bent down and picked it up, and after throwing it twice in his hand, he thoughtfully said to the oil girl Shino, "I have a good idea, Shino." ”
"You say ......," Seeing the oil girl Shino looking at herself, the corners of Inuzuka's mouth grinned, revealing a meaningful smile, and her long and pointed canine teeth were exposed, looking a little cruel: "Let's let only the Konoha Village ninja be left in the next exam, okay?" ”
…………
Shikamaru, Dingji, and Ino took the scroll, and after leaving the place where many candidates gathered, Shikamaru, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong, Shikamaru." Seeing Shikamaru stop his steps, Ino asked out loud.
Shikamaru didn't answer, his eyes fell on a tree not far away, perched on the sparrow, after squinting and looking at it, his hands quickly sealed, the shadow under his feet was slightly distorted, and then a black shadow suddenly burst out of it, like a black strange snake, meandering and crawling on the ground, and after reaching the bottom of the tree, he moved along the trunk of the tree towards the branch where the was, and after stopping slightly, he suddenly accelerated and controlled the sparrow.
"The most important thing about this exam is to grasp the timing - the longer you stay in this wood, the more dangerous it becomes, on the contrary, the first person to gather the scroll and reach the central tower is the safest, not only can set traps to attack other candidates, but also can get out at any time at the critical moment!" Shikamaru explained to Dingji and Ino, "Being able to know what kind of scroll other candidates have in advance can save time looking for scrolls, and this information is our chance to win!" ”
"Ino, you use the Mind and Body Transformation Technique to control this sparrow, and then immediately return to the small wooden house where the scrolls are distributed, it is very simple, you only need to see from the side of the wooden house what kind of scrolls the candidates who enter later have obtained." Shikamaru instructed Ino separately and seriously: "Try to remember which teams are holding the Heavenly Scroll, they are our next target!" ”
"I see!" After Ino heard Shikamaru's words, he nodded obediently, came to Shikamaru's side, formed a seal with both hands, aimed at the sparrow who was bound by Shikamaru not far away, and said to Shikamaru in a somewhat strange voice: "Then my body will trouble you, Shikamaru!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Ino's body suddenly fell softly in the direction of Shikamaru, Shikamaru was startled, untied the shadow imitation technique, and at the same time hugged Ino.
Ino seemed to be asleep, his mouth was slightly open, and his breath was like nothing, and at this time, the sparrow that was controlled by Ino had already staggered to Shikamaru.
"Be careful." Seeing this, Shikamaru said to Ino, who was controlling the sparrow's body, after all, the sparrow's body was very fragile at this time, and Ino's body and mind transformation technique had very big side effects.
Ino, who was holding the sparrow's body, nodded, looking a little funny, but Shikamaru didn't care about it, and after watching the other party take a few steps, he seemed to have adapted to his body, and suddenly spread his wings and flew towards the wooden house where the scrolls were distributed.
