Konoha Exercise Ground No. 44, alias Forest of Death.

After Ibiki's explanation of the meaning of the question, a figure suddenly broke through the window, indicating that he was the chief examiner of the second exam, and brought the candidate here.

"It feels so eerie here." Naruto shuddered as he looked at the deep, dark forest.

"Soon you'll know why this is called the Forest of Death." Mitarai Red Bean said with a smile.

"You'll soon know that this place will be called the Forest of Death~" Naruto said as he imitated the red bean, and then pointed at the red bean and shouted, "Don't scare people, I won't be afraid!" ”

Sakura Haruno looked at Naruto speechlessly, and moved to the side of her feet.

Red Beans are not good people.

Sure enough, while Naruto was still looking up to the sky and laughing wildly, the red bean shot out casually and wiped Naruto's beard, leaving a bloody trail on his face.

Before Naruto could react, Red Bean was already behind Naruto, and he grabbed Naruto's neck with one hand and said, "Like you, you'll die if you go in~"

Naruto stiffened in place, feeling the heat in his ears and the blood on his face, not daring to move.

Ziyu~

A man with a hat arrived behind Red Bean at some point and handed a kunai with his long tongue.

"Your kunai has fallen." The man said grimly, sticking out his tongue.

Sakura Haruno glanced at it, and her heart sank slightly.

Looking at the Hokage Continent, the only one who can speak with his tongue stuck out and appear at this time is probably Orochimaru.

The main thing is that she is now standing next to Hongdou, and Orochimaru's murderous aura has covered her, and her muscles are tense.

"This kind of murderous aura is even more terrifying than not cutting it again." Sakura Haruno turned her head casually and stopped looking at Orochimaru, secretly shocked in her heart.

Red Bean squinted slightly, stretched out his hand to take the kunai, and warned, "If you don't want to die, don't stand behind me with a murderous face." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm a little excited to see human blood." Orochimaru took two steps back and said as he licked his long tongue.

Orochimaru retracted his murderous aura, and Sakura Haruno secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly moved to the side.

Azuki ignored him, turned around, pushed Naruto in front of him, took out a stack of paper, and said, "Send this down, one for each person." ”

The assistant examiner on the side sent it out, and Hongdou explained: "This is a consent form, if you want to take the exam, you have to sign this first." ”

"Why?" Naruto was the first to ask, already forgetting about the threat of the red bean.

"Because I'm afraid that you will die inside, I must ask for your consent in advance, otherwise someone will trouble me." Hongdou said with a smile.

She said this frankly, but the candidates felt uncomfortable, and it seemed that the examiner was a bold guy.

"You sign first, and I'll explain the rules." Hongdou looked at the nervous expressions of the crowd, felt comfortable in his heart, and began to say the rules.

"After you sign the consent form in a while, go over there in groups of three to get a scroll and a number plate. The scrolls are divided into heavenly scrolls and earth scrolls, and you receive one of them, and then enter through the entrance of each corresponding number in the training ground to start the official exam. ”

"The content of the exam is to reach the tower in the center of the exercise field from the entrance in five days, with the two scrolls of heaven and earth, and all three of them will reach the central tower."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they immediately understood the core of this exam, the scroll snatching.

Only Naruto boldly asked the question, "Why two?" ”

Sakura Haruno propped her forehead, once again expressing concern about Naruto's IQ.

"Guess what." Azuki looked at Naruto with a smile, thinking that this kid had something, and he was quite bold.

I just don't know if it's just stupid.

Sakura Haruno explained to the bewildered Naruto: "Because we are going to snatch someone else's Tianzi scroll and make up a pair of heaven and earth." ”

"That's right, this exam allows you to use any means, as long as you can pass it." The corner of the red bean smiled.

"Any means" + consent = killing!

This equation instantly popped into everyone's minds, including Naruto, who reacted.

The rules of the Heaven and Earth Scroll mean that for every group that passes, more than one team must be disqualified or even killed.

The probability of dying is higher than the probability of losing eligibility.

"Of course, you can also choose to quit halfway, just open the scroll in your hand, once opened, it means that you withdraw from the exam."

"So, it's strictly forbidden to peek at the contents of the scroll until you reach the tower."

At this time, everyone's scrolls and number plates were almost gone.

"Listen, everybody!" Hongdou's face was solemn and he shouted: "All the groups go to their own entrances to prepare, and the exam will start in thirty minutes!" ”

Naruto was studying with a scroll at this time, and when he heard the order, he hurriedly set off and ran over.

Sakura Haruno grabbed him by the back collar and stopped Naruto, saying, "Wait." ”

Naruto looked back suspiciously, and Sasuke looked over as well.

"Well, look over there." Sakura Haruno gestured to look to the other side, and the other candidates didn't move.

Sasuke was startled, instantly reacted to why, and glanced at Sakura Haruno. Naruto was puzzled and asked, "Why didn't they leave?" ”

"Although this examination room is large, for ninjas, it doesn't take thirty minutes to reach the farthest entrance." Sakura Haruno said in a low voice: "So, this group of people is waiting, waiting to see the entrance numbers of other people, determine the location of other people, and adjust the route after entering the exercise ground according to the strength of the enemy." ”

Sakura Haruno said a lot, and Naruto probably understood, but he was still a little confused.

"In short, it's to see where others get in, and then pick your own enemies, after all, we want to rob other people's scrolls, and it's easier to rob the weak than the strong." Sakura Haruno squinted at the group of candidates.

From time to time, the group of candidates also aimed at them with dangerous eyes, as if their attention was on their heads.

In this way, starting later can also avoid letting others find out where they are.

They're the twelfth anyway, and it's not very far from here.

According to the visual inspection of Sakura Haruno, the highest should be about twenty.

A group of candidates stalemate near Entrance No. 1 for a long time before someone set off one after another, heading to the farthest test room number.

When the candidates in the first group set off, Sakura Haruno patted Naruto, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Let's go." ”

At the same time, there are many people who choose to set off with them and run in different directions.

"Huh?" Naruto was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that Sasuke was also starting to leave, he stood up and followed with doubts.

When the three of them arrived at the gate of the twelfth, Naruto asked suspiciously, "Brother Sakura, why did you leave so early, didn't we have to see where they were?" ”

"Because the group farthest away from the exam room has set off, although they don't want to, they will definitely be known by everyone." Sakura Haruno explained, "We will be able to see the general direction now, but we will not be able to find out the specific location, and we are coming out with a lot of people, which further reduces our sense of presence. ”

"No, based on what you've just done in the exam room, they're going to have their sights set on us." Sasuke spoke suddenly.

Sakura Haruno's performance in the first examination room just now can be described as full of ridicule.

"Don't you, that's what the three of us did together." Sakura Haruno raised her eyebrows.

Sasuke looked at her speechlessly, obviously this guy fired the map cannon first to taunt, he was just helping.

"Moreover, I just took a look, among these candidates, except for a few powerful ones who are more troublesome, we are not afraid of the rest." Sakura Haruno said with a smile.

"Tell me about it." Sasuke said lightly.

"......" Sakura Haruno narrowed her eyes and stared at Sasuke and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, you're very dragged, Sasuke." ”

Sasuke's face froze, he turned his head, snorted coldly, and said, "Hurry up." ”

For Sakura Haruno's usual domineering and scoundrel behavior, Sasuke has no way at all.

I can't fight it, I can't win it, and I can't win it, Sasuke-kun is very helpless.

"One of them is carrying a gourd, and I met him in the village before, and the one from the Sand Ninja Village is very strong."

"The other is the one who stood behind the examiner with a murderous face just now, I just stood close, I felt the murderous aura of not cutting again, that person is definitely not the strength of the lower forbearance." Speaking of this, Sakura Haruno had a solemn face and secretly reminded Sasuke and Naruto.

Sasuke was thoughtful when he heard this, it is right that he will not kill such a murderous aura, but since he is participating in the middle ninja exam, he will not be stronger than no longer slashing.

Sasuke felt that Sakura Haruno was too nervous.

Naruto paid attention to it, and directly raised the vigilance against Orochimaru to the highest limit in his heart.

"The other one is the watermelon head group. Sasuke, you should have an understanding, that watermelon head is definitely not simple. Sakura Haruno looked at Sasuke, thought for a moment and said, "And, as far as I know, we had a genius like you in the last session, who was from the Hyuga clan, and if you guessed correctly, it should be the white-eyed teammate of Watermelon Head." ”

Sasuke frowned slightly, he had heard of the surname Hinata, and he used to be a Konoha family with the same name as the Uchiha. But then the Uchiha was gone, and Konoha was left with the Hyuga family.

Naruto was puzzled again, Hinata did know, Hinata, what is the white eye? Is it strong? Hinata doesn't seem to be very strong......

"Naruto, don't think about it, leave it to us for the time being." Sakura Haruno saw Naruto frowning and thought bitterly, and patted Naruto on the shoulder to make him give up.

"Oh, okay." Naruto subconsciously agreed, and then reacted and said angrily, "What do you mean! ”

It turns out that even stupid people don't want others to be called stupid.

"When the time comes, the exam begins."

The assistant examiner, who had been waiting silently at the door, suddenly spoke, interrupting Naruto's anger.

The three of Haruno Sakura's faces were straight, and they glanced at each other, and Haruno Sakura spoke, "Are you ready?" ”

"Of course." Naruto smiled confidently.

Sasuke just smiled coolly, indicating that he was full of confidence.

"Then let's go, take them down!"
