When the sword shadow turned around and saw the figures of Nagata and Aoi, he immediately picked up the scroll and recorded the map on it with a pen.

The map that Shinobu provided them with was so rudimentary that it was easy to sketch, and Nagata put the scroll away before he could get close. Immediately afterwards, the sword shadow jumped up, picked up his right fist and slammed it on the map to mark the location of the target, "bang", the fist was full of power, and the layout that could outline the map was also very hard, he didn't stop after he landed, jumped up again, and threw several punches in a row at several other positions.

"Hey Konoha, don't go too far." A sand ninja appeared above the map wall along with the sweeping yellow sand, and he stared at the sword shadow with an icy gaze.

Yanagi Kenkage stared at him, the pressure given to him by the other party made his sideburns get wet, his attack did not destroy the information on the map, but under the gaze of Sand Shinobi, he could find another opportunity, and when Nagata and Aoi came to him, Yagyu Kenkage whispered: "Let's go." ”

The map was not destroyed as planned, and there was no unwillingness on Sword Shadow's face.

Compared with him, who took the exam for the first time, Sha Yin thought about it more. If the map is engraved on the stone wall, the punches of the sword shadow can turn the surface of the stone wall into broken lines, plus the potholes bombarded in other places, it will definitely take a lot of effort for the candidates behind to find the place they want to go by relying on the map.

It's a pity that Sha Yin has already thought about this, it is an iron wall, and the person who arranged this exam did not think about the situation of the map being destroyed. Even in order to prevent the candidates from having the strength to destroy the map, they also arranged for the upper shinobi to be guarded.

"Stealing chickens doesn't make rice, and now I'm the target of attention." If given another chance, he wouldn't do it.

Of course, if there is no Shangnin guard, choose to keep it as usual.

The people gathered under the map looked at the backs of the three people and scolded indignantly.

"Bastard, don't let me touch it, or you're going to die."

"Remember what those three people looked like? I'll have to settle the account with them when we meet later. ”

"Damn it."

………

March Aoi Xiang held back for a while and finally couldn't help but say, "Sword Shadow, wouldn't this be too much." This time let's be a nail in the eyes of others. ”

Jian Ying said indifferently: "But if we succeed, our benefits will be great." Gotta gamble! Besides, it's not that it's not destroyed, isn't it, who is still staring at us with all his mind. Besides, as long as it's fast enough, those people can't cross paths with us. Don't forget, this is the middle ninja exam, and there is a mortality rate. Those people are enemies. ”

With a serious expression, he looked down at the fragrance of the March Flower.

Yanagi Jianying does not look down on others, but is confident, and in terms of speed, he can surpass others in his class.

Among the three, only Aoi Xiang is slightly weaker, but with him and Nagata here, as long as she pulls a little and gives her a little effort, she can keep up.

Now, in the team of the Zhongnin exam, Jian Ying is the first echelon, and the second echelon is the group that reacts first.

Looking for the footprints of the sword shadow, the three of them hurried forward.

"Shanmi, Syr." The young sand shinobi who was running in the middle suddenly spoke.

"What's the matter?" The female ninja on the left asked.

The young man named Dochka stared ahead, where there were only yellow sand hills, but there was no trace of the three sword shadows. "I've got to catch up and stop them, can you still pick up your speed?"

The face of the young man in the same group on the right changed: "Dochka, you calm down......"

It didn't work, the teammates had already rushed up.

Watching his teammates leave, the ninja's face showed helplessness, but the female ninja on the left was calm and relieved: "Didn't you know that he had this temper?" And the team of Konoha ninjas in front of them are too arrogant, looking at their age, I'm afraid they haven't been ninjas for a long time, I don't know how thick the sky is, and they should really teach a lesson to do this kind of thing that makes people angry. ”

As a high-end force in this world, ninjas are equivalent to agents in modern society, and perhaps low-level agents will not be able to perform well in knowledge and fighting skills, but once they rise to the middle level, everything will be closer to the high-end class.

The ninjas who took the middle ninja exam first thought that there would not be much difference in strength between themselves and the middle ninja; Second, they have the consciousness of dying in the exam, and for many years of the Zhongnin exam, you can always see that many people have lost their lives for various reasons.

How could such a group of people have deficiencies in their ability to observe, and the general appearance of the three Sword Shadow appeared in their minds in an instant.

The people who arrived later, after learning that the map at the village gate had been damaged, pulled the sword shadow into the blacklist one after another, even if the damaged map did not prevent them from finding their destination.

Just thinking that the other party is a group of eleven or twelve-year-old children, these sixteen, seventeen or even twenty-year-old ninjas can't stand the tricks, and a group of little kids dare to break ground on their heads?

"Chicos, are you interested in dealing with those guys?"

After the sand ninja group, it is the third echelon.

There are quite a few ninjas here, and one of the teams of rain ninjas shows no signs of panting even though they run on the sand.

Chikos was dressed in the unique costume of the rain ninja, and the breathing apparatus on their mouths made their voices dull: "It's okay, this is the first exam, although I don't know what the mission will be, but I think they can move on to the next exam, sooner or later." ”

Another companion agreed with him, and there was no need to argue with the stunned young man who caused the outrage: "Agreed." ”

The other teams that had preserved their strength exchanged opinions with each other, some planned to chase the sword shadow to take revenge now, some said they would ignore it, and some said that if they met, they would go and greet them, and forget it if they didn't meet them.

The three attitudes of Jian Ying were expected, and the one he was least worried about was the first, these people were the fierce and courageous radicals among the candidates; The danger level of the second type is weak and strong, the weak can be ignored, and the strong is likely to have an overwhelming advantage (it is precisely because of the strong strength that there is a little trick to sit and watch others play tricks); As for the third type, it is unstable, and if you encounter a team battle, it is possible to cooperate temporarily.

The sword shadow running in front suddenly glanced back, and he said to Nagata, who had not yet reacted, "We have to speed up, and a guy is catching up." ”

Kwai Xiang said in surprise: "Just one person? ”

Nagata glanced behind him, but didn't see anyone coming, and explained to Aoika: "The other party left his companions behind and caught up, indicating that his target is us." ”

As soon as he explained Aoika, he understood that this person would come up first to entangle him, and when his companions behind him appeared, he would be able to use the opportunity of the previous sword shadow to destroy the map and instigate everyone to besiege his party.

"Sword Shadow, what are you going to do?" Thinking of the nearly two hundred people in the square just now, Kwai Xiang felt like she had been pricked by a needle.

The sword shadow head running in front didn't reply, and said, "Leave him alone, let's speed up." ”

Without waiting for Aoi Xiang to ask, he clasped his hands together: The technique of multiple shadow clones!

More than a dozen sword shadows appeared at the same time, and then some of them sealed again: Transformation Technique!

The five fourth squads appeared in front of Aoika, and they didn't see any movement from the sword shadow, and the new fourth squad spread out in a fan shape and ran forward. At this time, the sword shadow running beside Aoi Xiang spoke, "Speed up, we have to catch up." ”

Nagata appeared on the other side of Aoika, placing her hand on Aoika's shoulder, and with this movement, she shifted part of the burden of running to the two of them.

From childhood to the present, the physical exercises that have been carried out have earned Kenkage and Nagata a strong bodies. Maybe the explosive power in a short period of time can't be compared to some geniuses, but in terms of long-distance running, there are very few ninjas at this stage who can surpass them.

Obviously, Dochka, who caught up alone, did not belong to this group.

Looking at the nearly twenty pairs of footprints that appeared in the desert, Dochka knew that he had been discovered, "Perceptual ninja?" I don't know which of them it is. Dochka was suspicious of the girl, but the current evidence only proved that the other party had a sentient ninja, and could not indicate who the sentient ninja was.

Think of a squad as a person's body, the perceptual ninja is the eyes and ears of that person, and although getting rid of the perceptual ninja can't reduce the combat power of the squad, in terms of the threat of the entire squad, it has been greatly reduced.

This is also the plan of Dochka's fight, and at present, it seems that although the other party is a child, he is very fast, and the existence of the perceptual ninja, who wants to approach quietly, has the same chance as zero.

"Hell, we'll see!"

The motley of footprints landed on the sand, and Dochka determined the direction and walked straight, only to slow down a lot now, waiting for two teammates to catch up.

In less than three minutes, two of Dochka's companions passed through here, and they also saw the chaotic footprints, and stopped to look around, and saw the footprints belonging to their companions at a glance.

"Dochka is going this way."

"We kept up, and he slowed down."

"Doesn't look like we caught up with those imps. Let's go. ”

Not long after they left, the third echelon also followed, and along the way, the footprints on the sand were already familiar to them, and they quickly found the direction of progress from the footprints on the ground. However, five teams stopped.

After the rest of the third echelon left, the five teams looked at each other.

After a while, Yushinobi, named Chikos, said to the person opposite, "Since everyone has seen it, let's go...... Why, want to spend time here? Or do you want to say a word to the stupid guy in the back? ”

The side that looked at them was Taki Shinobi, and the three Taki Shinobi remained on guard, listening to Yu Shinobi, who didn't mean to make a move now, he didn't let down his guard, but just chose a direction and rushed forward.

Chicos hissed and motioned for his companion to follow.

The other three groups also didn't plan to do anything, according to the map, the road is long. And there are too many candidates, even if the two tigers compete, they must be cleaned up around Xiaoxiao.

Sword Shadow's illusion doesn't have much effect on battle-hardened warriors, but it can blind some inexperienced ninjas who are not contaminated with blood. The deceived ninjas are either overconfident, or habitual thinking, or follow the crowd, in short, the vast majority of the third echelon and the Dochka group could have seen the illusions placed here, but they were deceived for various reasons.

This is not the case.

The illusion that was placed here by the sword shadow was not here, because he was not here, he put a talisman under the sand, like an explosive charm, and when it burned out, it was the moment when the illusion effect ended.

However, if the person who saw the illusion unraveled it, the talisman left under the sand would be burned in an instant. Unfortunately, none of the fifteen people who saw the illusion were willing to do such a thing, and when each team left, they tried to hide their footprints until they crossed another hill.

The five groups had not been running long before they saw a group of people appear in the spurs, and looking at the direction they had come, it was obvious that it was a group that had found the wrong direction and returned.

The person who realized that the person who returned to the right path was none other than Dochka and his party, and they looked resentful at this time, and it was conceivable that if the sword shadow appeared in front of them, even if it was surpassed by the team behind them, they would have to give these little ghosts a look.

As the head snake, the three of them found that something was wrong when they met, and after taking out the map, they even thought of Guan Qiao.

However, it was not only them who realized it later, the people of the original third echelon also thought of the reason after seeing the footprints left by Dochka and them, and ran in the right direction after scolding.

The group that dragged behind the third echelon was lucky, the talisman burned and the illusion disappeared, and the footprints returned to the right direction, and some of the forerunners also quickly adjusted after discovering that the people behind them were running in the wrong direction. But without exception, everyone hated the guy who set up the illusion.

No one paid attention to the footprints on the wrong path, the sword shadow did not retract the shadow clone, the country of the wind and Nagata were too strange, and they would receive the mission when they arrived at the destination, but who knew what the mission was. With the support of blood essence stones, the shadow clone separated by the sword shadow bears the heavy responsibility of mapping the surrounding terrain.

"Bastard."

Chikos looked at the environment in front of him and was silent, in fact, the surrounding environment was the same as before, still a vast sea of sand and traces of walking that had not disappeared. "These guys are damn good."

After running for so long, even if he sped up, he didn't catch up with the other party, and as the number of locations on the road that could make people fall into illusions continued to increase, everyone knew that there was a master of illusion in the first echelon.

Since there is a common enemy, Dochka reveals that there is a sentient ninja on the opposing team.

It's a pity that in the absence of contact with the Sword Shadow, even if there are a large number of people, it is difficult to judge the true strength of the three Sword Shadows. Whether the illusions arranged along the way are the perceptual ninjas themselves, or whether there is an illusion master and a perceptual ninja in the team.

It's impossible to judge exactly, but there are some things that can be deduced, such as being able to maintain the lead position even though everyone is speeding up, indicating that the other party has a huge chakra support, otherwise a sentient ninja would not have achieved such a significant achievement in physical strength anyway.

Thinking of this, many people began to use ninjutsu to increase their speed, and compared to traditional running, using ninjutsu that can increase speed did increase speed by a large margin.

"These idiots, don't you know that there will be exams after that? This is the first time. ”

Since it was not said that the first one to reach the destination would be able to pass the level, it naturally said that there would be follow-up tasks, and it was true that squandering Chakra now would be able to take a temporary lead, but the loss of Chakra would be extremely unfavorable for the next exam.

The people who didn't use ninjutsu were silent, they were guarding against each other, and the distance was a little far, but the desert terrain decided that the path should be chosen on the top of the sand dunes for more convenient travel.

Only because the shortest route is a straight line will they jump off the dunes and climb to another summit when faced with some path that requires a long detour to get back to the right direction.

Time passed little by little, and according to the map of the place, there were three hours to reach the destination.

"Could it be that the next mission is to be carried out at night?"

Kenkage took Aoika in a hurry, running fast for a long time, and Nagata's physical exertion was great.

If it weren't for Kenkage's use of medical ninjutsu to help them relieve muscle fatigue, I'm afraid they would be overtaken by the people behind them halfway.

Since the gang used ninjutsu to speed up, the three of them also increased their speed a few times, but fortunately, in the end, because the other party was unable to continue, the three of them have been in the lead.

At this time, Kenkage was thinking about how to pass on his chakra to others, and at some point in the final battle, Naruto could pass the chakra of the Nine-Tails to others, making their fatigue disappear in an instant. With the Blood Essence Stone and the ability to open the Heraldic Shield in the future, Sword Shadow has a strong confidence in his chakra recovery speed.

It's a pity that he can't think so far now, Yanagi Sword Shadow can only use medical ninjutsu to relieve the fatigue of his companions, and it can't make up for the chakra that the two of them lost.

"There's a lot more to look into. Ay...... Where do you find information? ”

His troubles are much like the domestic aircraft engines of the 21st century, the disease has not been solved for decades, and has become the collective trouble of almost all those who care about defense aviation. There are obviously more advanced engines abroad, but they can't build them themselves, and even if they get samples, they can't do anything.
