The heart of the Forest of the Dead, inside the tower. At this time, the three generations of Hokage personally came to the scene to announce the exam, which was enough to show the importance of this Zhongnin exam.

Seeing that the members of Konoha accounted for the majority of the field, the three generations were also very relieved. After all, Konoha is one of the five ninja villages in the ninja world, and although it has gone through many tribulations, its strength has slowly recovered. Especially under the leadership of Lin Daoyuan, the next generation of young people in Konoha has grown up, and I believe that soon my old bones will not have to be hard to hold on!

These thoughts quickly flashed through his heart, and the three generations of Hokage couldn't stop talking. Summing up: "Therefore, this Zhongnin exam is the epitome of the war between the allies, and it is a life-and-death struggle held to avoid unnecessary war and damage to national strength!" Here, all ninjas should keep in mind. This is a battle for your own dreams and the prestige of your respective ninja villages, and you need to risk your lives for it! ”

Hearing that the three generations said things so seriously, it had risen to the level of the rise and fall of the ninja village, and the many lower ninjas below couldn't help but feel heavy pressure. Of course, this life-and-death battle can also bring out their own latent strength.

"In this qualifier, I will be the referee of Moonlight Blast." At the suggestion of the three generations, the moonlight blast wind, which has now been promoted to the upper ninja, came in front of many candidates in an instant. After nodding and saying hello to his captain, Lin Daoyuan, Hurricane said to the candidates present: "Because there will be many VIPs coming to watch the third exam, the game time is limited, so the number of people needs to be reduced. Now, does anyone abstain from voting because they are unwell or for other reasons? ”

In the end, only the pharmacist abstained. Hurricane then said, "Good! Now that you have chosen to continue fighting. Then the qualifiers have officially begun! According to the electronic screen display. The first scene. Uchiha Sasuke vs. Bronze Armor! ”

How to put it, this sub-battle can only be described as simple and boring. With Sasuke's current strength, even under the invasion of the curse seal, it is not difficult to defeat the red bronze armor that mainly relies on the chakra absorption technique to fight. As a result, Sasuke Uchiha won, earning the first place in the competition.

The next two battles were not much to look at, and the victories were Kankuro of the sand shinobi and Shino the oil girl. And the fourth battle. It's Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka, a pair of best friends who are in the same room!

The two people who walked to the venue stood face to face at a distance of three meters, and their expressions were so serious and serious, it seemed that they were going to come to the real thing!

Ino spoke first, and said seriously to Sakura, "I didn't expect it to be a battle between the two of us!" What a surprise! However, it's okay, I've wanted to compete with Sakura for a long time! ”

Sakura nodded, and said equally seriously: "Usually the competition is to the point, this time let's see who can be better between the two of us!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Sakura launched a first attack. Lift the ball of your foot and slam it the ground. "Bang!" A loud bang was heard immediately! Then the stone slabs on the ground suddenly exploded in a straight line towards the direction of the well. The shattered stones shot towards Ino like many hidden weapons under the tremendous force!

"I've been guarding against you for a long time! If it's a strange magic, I'll do it too! Ino also slammed his feet, and the ground continued to explode in a straight line, the same effect as Sakura's cause, but the rushing gravel flew in Sakura's direction!

The stones that flew from both sides suddenly collided in the air, and the occasional broken stone that escaped by luck also took Sakura and Ino, who had already changed directions, had no choice but to fall to the ground with all their strength, and for a while, "Knock knock!" The sound of stones crashing and falling to the ground continued!

This one! Many candidates and teachers in the stands widened their eyes and looked shocked! Is this really the destructive power of human stampeding, rather than the enormous power of bomb blasting? What a scary two women!

However, for such a powerful physical technique, Sakura and Ino didn't care about it at all. Ino said, "This is the end of the temptation!" The two of us are already familiar enough with each other. Compared to the mastery of strange powers, I really can't compare to Sakura you, I want to do it for real! ”

Without waiting for Sakura-chan to answer, Ino immediately took out a flower from the bag specially tied around his waist, ran the wind attribute chakra on it, and then threw it at Sakura. shouted: "Ninja? Flowers are cracked! ”

I saw that the flowers that were thrown were halfway through, and suddenly the petals cracked on their own, and with the unique sharpness of the wind attribute chakra, they suddenly spread to a huge number and swept towards Sakura. Being touched by such sharp chakra petals is not much different from a thousand cuts!

But Sakura has long known a lot about Ino's tricks. Immediately charged his right fist and slammed it to the ground. Under Sakura's chakra control, the ground cracked instantly, and a neat square stone slab flew up, just in front of her, blocking the many petals that flew in one after another, only to leave scratches on the stone slabs! And the two-meter-square stone slab that was knocked away did not stop, but slammed into Ino fiercely, and there was a tendency to crush Ino into a meatloaf!

And Ino was unusually calm in the face of the slate that came from the impact, and immediately jumped onto the slate, and then jumped with the help of his strength, flew up, and headed towards Sakura. At the same time, he took out a flower again, and flicked it at Sakura, and the flower swirled towards Sakura.

Well! Sakura, who was observing Ino's movements, quickly kicked the ground as if facing a great enemy, dodging to ten meters away! Then he quickly sealed in his hand and used a surprising ninjutsu, "Earth Escape? Huangquannuma! ”。 I saw that the stone slab on the ground where Ino was about to land was suddenly turned into a swamp covering a radius of five meters!

"It's!" Asma looked at Sakura in surprise and said with admiration, "In addition to Tsunade-sama's strange power technique, he can even use this level of earth escape!" I really can't see it! Ino is in danger this time! ”

Hearing Asma's admiration, Shikamaru pursed his lips and said, "Those women are more troublesome than the other!" Don't underestimate them! Moreover, Ino is not so easy to deal with! ”

As soon as Shikamaru's voice fell, there was a change on Ino's side. Looking at the swamp that suddenly appeared on the ground, Ino smiled slightly, and then let himself go straight down regardless of it! Isn't she afraid of being caught in the swamp?

In the blink of an eye, Ino's feet touched the swamp on the ground, but he didn't sink at all! Ino stood on top of the mud as steadily as he walked on the ground! Then he sank his waist slightly, and he was about to continue to attack Sakura.

However, Sakura, who is a friend of Ino's friend, how can she not know how far the other party's chakra control has reached? When Ino chose to land on the swamp instead of avoiding it, she felt a burst of secret joy in her heart, and the moment Ino landed, the mark in her hand changed. shouted at Ino, "You're fooled! Soil escape? Dungeon! ”

With Sakura's order, the mud on the swamp suddenly rose to the sky, surrounding Ino on all sides, forming a hard dungeon, trapping Ino in it!

Looking at the well in front of her, who was trapped in the dungeon, Sakura walked forward, and then pressed her hand on the dungeon, and immediately shouted loudly: "Ino, admit defeat!" It was not difficult for me to make the dungeon full of thorns. What can you do if you're trapped in it? I should have won this battle! ”

The well in the dungeon is very leisurely, and he is not anxious about what happened to him at all. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and retorted Sakura's words, "Whoever wins and who loses, that's not necessarily!" ”

Well? Before Sakura could react, she suddenly saw a rain of flowers in front of her. The spinning flying flowers seem to have magical power, which seems to absorb all the energy of people, only to make people's eyelids become heavier and heavier, and they want to sleep hard!

Not good! It's an illusion! Sakura, who has a very good illusion resistance, quickly reacted, and immediately sealed it instantly, and secretly shouted: "Solution! ”。 Although Sakura quickly got out of the illusion, what Ino needed was Sakura's stunned look!

"Mystic? The art of heart turning! With a soft cry from Ino, Sakura, who had just unlocked the illusion, was instantly invaded by Ino's spiritual energy, and the result was predictable. I was controlled by Ino's family secret technique!

However, Sakura's spiritual talent is amazing, and there is another Sakura in her body! Immediately, he was going to lose his spiritual power and have a battle with Ino in the spiritual world. But Ino only entered Sakura's spiritual world, and immediately retreated, without any intention of fighting to the end!

Sakura, who had returned to reality from her spirit, looked at Ino suspiciously, and asked puzzledly, "Ino, ...... you?" ”

In the face of Sakura's inquiry, Ino shrugged his shoulders, and then said helplessly: "Forget about the mental competition, anyway, with Sakura's spiritual power, in the end, I can only fight with you to lose both!" And in illusion and ninjutsu, the two of us also have their own advantages. In the end, if you want to win, you can't tell the winner if you don't fight to the death, so how about a draw? ”

Hearing Ino's words, he thought about the respective strengths of the two. Sakura also nodded helplessly, and then looked at Ino with a firm expression and said, "Although I have long expected that the result may be like this, I am still so unwilling when I really face it!" Next time, next time I'll definitely beat you! Wait for me, Ino! ”

In the face of Sakura's challenge, Ino also shouted with a firm and serious expression, "That's what I want to say!" Next time I'll beat you by an absolute margin! Sakura! ”

After the two on the field made a vow to fight again in the future, they hugged each other's arms affectionately and walked back to the stands together, while muttering something to their mouths. I can't see the tense atmosphere between the two just now!

In the end, Sakura and Ino were awarded a draw, but neither of them qualified for the third exam! (To be continued......)
