Konoha No. 44 Training Ground.

The three of them rushed in the forest, and a looming black figure followed the forest beside them, as if they were escorting the three of them.

It's now three hours after entering the exercise ground. After entering the exercise ground, the three of them had a strategic meeting at the suggestion of Sakura Haruno and discussed the basic strategy in the forest.

The ultimate goal is to pass the exam, and the basic method is to run directly to the central tower, and then on the way to meet whoever grabs whom, and if you can't grab it, wait near the tower.

At Sakura Haruno's suggestion, she summoned more than a dozen Shadow Ninjas to escort them and increase their safety.

Speaking of Shadow Ninja, I have to mention Sakura Haruno's preparation for the middle ninja exam for a while.

Shadow Ninja is made by Sakura Haruno according to the idea of the Shadow Corps and the relevant principles of the doppelganger technique, although it is roughly the same as the Shadow Corps, but the strength is too different, and it will break when you touch it.

Sakura Haruno also used the technique of multiple shadow clones from Naruto, after all, she has a lot of energy like Naruto, and she can divide many of them at once.

She wanted to give up Shadow Ninja and replace it with a shadow clone.

But it turns out that there is never a shortage of ninjas in the world who can have multiple shadow clones and a large number of chakras, but few people can withstand the side effects of this ninjutsu, and no one can ignore the information flow of thousands of shadow clones like Naruto.

Sakura Haruno couldn't either, in fact, just five minutes of movement from the ten shadow clones almost knocked her unconscious.

Therefore, compared to the shadow clone with great side effects, Sakura Haruno feels that the Shadow Ninja who still feels that he has no feelings is more suitable for him.

After obtaining the Shadow Scroll, Sakura Haruno combined the knowledge of the Shadow Scroll and the principles of the Shadow Clone to transform Shadow Ninja to produce Shadow Ninja 2.0.

After the upgrade, the main thing about Shadow Ninja is to strengthen the body, from breaking at the touch to escalating to, uh, falling with one punch......

Cough... Although the improvement may not seem like much, in Haruno Sakura's opinion, this is a qualitative improvement, and at least it proves that it can be strengthened.

Moreover, Naruto's shadow clone was only to the extent that it fell with one punch, which was almost enough.

Moreover, Shadow Ninja does not have the side effects of shadow clones, which can reduce the burden of Haruno Sakura, and in general, it is considered Haruno Sakura's current pillar skill.

Speaking of exams, the three of them ran all the way to the central tower, occasionally stopping to regain their strength, and then continued to move forward.

Suddenly, Sakura Haruno waved her hand and motioned for the two to stop.

Sasuke vigilantly took out the kunai, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Naruto also looked around a little nervously.

Sakura Haruno's eyes swept to the silent forest around her, and said, "Shadow Ninja is scattered. ”

"Where?" Naruto asked nervously.

Sasuke didn't speak, just kept scanning his surroundings.

The three of them stood back to back, wary of their surroundings.

Sakura Haruno's eyes narrowed slightly, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"Still caught up in such a hurry? Should it be said that it is worthy of Orochimaru? Sakura Haruno's face was cloudy.

The plan to go directly to the central tower was proposed by her, on the one hand, to be confident in the strength of the three of them, and on the other hand, to avoid Orochimaru.

But now, it seems, half of her plan has fallen through, and the murderous aura that gradually rises in the air gives her goosebumps.

Sasuke and Naruto also felt this, and at the same time turned their heads to look to the side, the source of that chilling murderous aura.

Three ninjas with hats stood not far away casually, and the first one in front was Orochimaru, who had provoked the red bean before.

"You guys go first, I'll play with them." Orochimaru stretched out his long tongue and smiled with a penetrating smile.

The two people behind him left without saying a word, leaving Orochimaru alone.

Sakura Haruno frowned slightly, and the shadow energy under his feet frantically outwent along his shadow.

Whether it's Shadow Ninja or other Shadow series skills, they need to rely on Shadow Energy, and she needs to lay the most Shadow Energy in the shortest amount of time!

Orochimaru looked at the three of them with interest, and the murderous aura on his body surged wildly, pressing on the three of them.

Sakura Haruno began to sweat on her forehead, and the scene in her field of vision gradually turned red, this was not a side effect of her shadow energy, but the effect of Orochimaru's murderous aura, which made her hallucinate!

Sakura Haruno secretly bit her tongue to wake up, looked sideways at Sasuke, and found that Sasuke had opened the writing wheel eye at some point, but it didn't look good.

"Writing wheels? When did Sasuke open it? Sakura Haruno was shocked, and then felt a little relieved: "Now is not the time to be shocked, something is better than nothing." ”

Although writing the wheel will only arouse Orochimaru's greater desire, Sakura Haruno can't think of so much now, she just wants to increase her strength a little more.

"Hehehe." Orochimaru casually tossed the hat aside and took out a scroll with ground characters engraved on it.

"I know that your scroll is the Celestial Scroll, and I have the Ground Scroll." As he spoke, Orochimaru slowly stuffed the scroll into his mouth under the shocked gazes of the three of them.

"So, let's get started, the reel scramble." Orochimaru licked the saliva that had overflowed from stuffing the scroll and sneered.

Airplanes~

In an instant, killing intent like a sea of blood surged towards the three of them, and Naruto and Sasuke were stunned on the spot, falling into a hallucination.

The next moment, Sasuke and Naruto bent over and vomited, as if someone had punched them in the stomach, and their eyes were full of horror.

Haruno Sakura's face is also a little ugly, this kind of gap that you don't have to look at to know is a little desperate.

"Hey, I really didn't expect that the strongest one was actually a little girl." Orochimaru looked at Sakura Haruno and became interested in this little girl who could still stand

Sakura Haruno's face was pale, but she still stepped out, stood in front of Naruto Sasuke, and said, "You are by no means the person who took the shinobi exam, who are you!" ”

"Hehe, you shouldn't ask this kind of question at this time." Orochimaru smiled weirdly.

At the same time, a large tree-thick python suddenly flew out from behind the trunk behind the three of Haruno Sakura and went straight to Haruno Sakura!

Sakura Haruno's shadow energy had been expected for a long time, and as soon as her mind moved, more than a dozen Shadow Ninjas joined forces to stop the big snake outside.

Orochimaru unexpectedly looked at the pitch-black NINJA and tilted his head sideways, dodging the sneak attack of the NINJA behind him.

"I've never seen the Blood Inheritance Limit, hehe, an unexpected joy." With a casual blow to disperse the Shadow Ninja behind him, Orochimaru chuckled lightly.

Sakura Haruno gritted her teeth secretly, although she knew that Shadow Ninja was not of much use to a master of this level, but the facts still made her a little desperate when she was in front of her.

Turning sideways to look at Naruto and Sasuke, although the two were still not in good shape at this time, they had already stood up, and Naruto's eyes also showed signs of slight redness.

This is the Nine-Tails Chakra who was a little inspired by Orochimaru's murderous aura.

"Naruto, shadow clone!" Sakura Haruno shouted.

Naruto didn't say a word, he just did it, and with the Nine-Tails Chakra's multiple shadow clone technique, he occupied the surrounding forest at once.

After the white ninjutsu smoke passed, only Naruto and Sakura Haruno were left in the field.

Orochimaru's eyes lit up slightly, and he felt the breath of the Nine-Tailed Chakra, and felt that today was really a surprise.

"Transfiguration, good strategy." Orochimaru commented casually, but there was no movement, and a large number of pythons sprang out around him, directly crushing Naruto's shadow clone, and Naruto's shadow clone turned into smoke one by one and dissipated.

Sakura Haruno took Naruto and Sasuke to hide behind a tree trunk, and by this time she and Sasuke had already taken on Naruto's appearance.

"Listen to the tactics, first, run directly, Naruto's shadow doppelganger will cover, second, wait for rescue on the spot, this person is not here to take the middle ninja exam, the examiner will take care of it." Sakura Haruno said as she gasped.

"Third, defeat him!" Naruto said with red eyes.

Sakura Haruno casually gave him a jump in the head and said, "Dismissed." ”

"Can't run, Naruto's shadow clone can't hide us." Sasuke frowned and said, "But staying where you are may not be able to wait for rescue, and the examiner doesn't seem to have found out." ”

"Tell me your method." Sakura Haruno said directly.

"Give him the scroll, and we'll grab someone else's."

"Nope." ×2

Sasuke frowned, ignoring Naruto's angry eyes and looking at Sakura Haruno.

"You coward!"

"That man came to kill people, and it's useless to give it to him." Sakura Haruno explained. Of course, she couldn't say that Orochimaru came to Sasuke, but it wasn't bad, and she didn't plan to let them go anyway.

"Then there's only one way left." Sasuke smiled bitterly.

"Hit!" Sakura Haruno screamed and pulled the two of them out of place.

The next moment, a giant python smashed the trunk of the tree and crashed into the place where the three of them had been.

Their whereabouts are revealed, and the three of them begin to struggle with the incoming pythons.

"How?" Naruto asked rarely.

"Scatter, reel to me, adapt, pay attention to cooperation!" Sakura Haruno snatched the scroll from Naruto's hand and threw it into the shadow space, and the three of them scattered in an instant.

In the face of an enemy like Orochimaru, Sakura Haruno didn't think about winning at all, she just wanted to keep the scroll and try to keep Sasuke as much as possible.

The three of them separated, and Sakura Haruno turned her head and charged towards Orochimaru.

Her shadow energy was placed over there just now, and although it was dangerous, her home was over there.

Staring at Orochimaru, Sakura Haruno casually formed a tiger mark on his hand, and shouted in his mouth: "Shadow Summon!" ”

Although this Tiger Mark is bluffing, Shadow Summoning is not.

In an instant, countless Shadow Ninjas emerged from the ground and rushed towards Orochimaru one after another.

"Interesting." Orochimaru grabbed a Shadow Ninja and stared at the object in his hand with a research eye.

As for the other Shadow Ninjas, they were taken care of by the anaconda before they could get close.

"Fire escape. Howe Fireball Technique! ”

Sasuke ran behind Orochimaru at some point, and a fireball spurted out, but unexpectedly missed.

But Sasuke still had a back hand, and he reached out and pulled hard, and a wire thread stretched all the way to Orochimaru, tying Orochimaru up.

"Fire escape. The Art of Dragon Fire! ”

A flame burned down the wire towards Orochimaru, and at the same time, Sakura Haruno's hand pressed to the ground, unleashing the Shadow Swamp.

Orochimaru just wanted to use his stand-in technique to dodge Sasuke's dragon fire technique, but found himself sinking, as if he was in a quagmire under his feet.

Rumble!

The dragon fire technique burned to Orochimaru's body, and the blazing flames enveloped him entirely.

"It's not over yet!" A group of Naruto's voices came from above Orochimaru, and with a boom, the giant tree behind Orochimaru fell down with a bang and slammed into Orochimaru's body.
