"Damn, just ...... Just fell for illusion? ”

A Takaki Shinobi Shinobu felt extremely embarrassed, and he glanced at Sunset Red with some jealousy: "This woman's illusion can actually affect dozens of people at the same time?" Konoha Village's special ninja can be so powerful! ”

He felt that this so-called special ninja, in their Takishi Ninja Village, was already able to be an elite ninja.

Maybe even be a strong contender for the leader of the Taki Shinobi.

The result is placed in such a place as Konoha Village.

Just an inconspicuous special ninja......

The heritage of Konoha is simply terrifying.

"Hey! Did we come here to take the middle ninja exam in your Konoha exam, or were we teased by you Konoha ninjas? Someone couldn't help but grit his teeth and complain: "It's okay if you played us in the first round of theory exams, and now you still play us?" ”

"yes!" A rain ninja chimed in: "What do you take us for? We are candidates from various ninja villages, and we represent the ninja villages behind us. ”

"If it continues like this, is there still a need to participate in this so-called Zhongnin exam?"

"Hmph, isn't Konoha bullying us shinobi?"

“……”

Sunset Red didn't stop them from complaining, but listened to them quietly until the noise gradually stopped.

One after another, their eyes locked on Sunset Red.

Sunset's red face remained unchanged, and there was still a little smile on his face: "What? Want to put pressure on me as an examiner? Little ghosts, these tricks, many people who have taken the middle ninja exam have already used them, and they are not new at all! ”

"If you don't want to take the Zhongnin exam, you can just leave. As a second round examiner, I have the right to allow them to leave and to allow them to relinquish themselves from the exam. ”

"Half a minute, people who want to leave can go now."

Sunset Red leans against the wall of the classroom.

The smile on his face is intriguing.

One after another, the lower ninja began to look at each other, to be honest, it really made them give up the opportunity to take the middle ninja exam, how could it be?

They came to Konoha Village to take the Shinobi exam in order to be eligible.

But it took a lot of effort.

Now that I finally passed the first round of exams, am I about to give up after being stimulated by this special forbearance speech?

Absolutely impossible!

"Heh, didn't you just clamore for not taking the Zhongnin exam?"

Sunset Hong smiled: "Forget it, I, the examiner, am magnanimous and don't worry too much about you little ghosts." ”

"Come with me!" Sunset Red said, "The location of the second round of exams is not a ninja school!" If anyone doesn't catch up later, don't blame me! ”

The voice fell.

Sunset Red did not hesitate, turned around and left.

And it's not slow.

"Not good!" A sand hidden village shinobi was suddenly shocked: "If she doesn't keep up, will she be disqualified from the exam?" Hurry up, hurry up! The people of Sand Hidden Village are all following that guy! ”

His voice woke everyone up.

The next moment.

Konoha has such a scene - especially the upper shinobi "Sunset Red" jumps quickly on the top of the buildings, and behind her is a group of shinobi from various villages.

This scene is in the eyes of the common people of Konoha.

Jaw-dropping.

About half an hour later.

Sunset Red stopped.

"Whew...... Whew...... "Sasuke and Shiro gasped slightly.

It's really not easy for the two of them to keep up with the speed of a special ninja.

Even the two who have undergone special training are a little tired, not to mention some murashinobi who are good at ninjutsu and not very strong in physical skills.

Some of them ran to this place in one breath and began to vomit.

Some quickly took something out of their pockets and stuffed it into their mouths.

Some couldn't help but lean against the tree and quickly rest for a while.

They were so tired that they didn't want to say a word.

There was a rapid pant of air everywhere.

"What a strange forest." It was Junmaro who spoke.

He was one of the few people present who did not catch his breath, and his unique blood inheritance limit made his body different from ordinary people.

At only ten years old, his eyes wandered around with his small stature.

It is very eerie and eerie to be able to see this forest.

If you look at it, there are a lot of exaggerated trees.

Some large trees have trunks at least a dozen meters in diameter.

Exaggerated to the point of jaw-dropping.

Inuzuka Hana touched the three little ninja dogs with their tongues sticking out, she was also looking at all the surroundings, and said thoughtfully: "Izumi, if Izumi remembers correctly, this should be the Forest of Death, and it is also the largest training ground in Konoha with an area of area." ”

"Forest of Death, a little heard." Izumi Uchiha nodded, "Is this the place where our second round of exams will be?" ”

"Good familiar...... Naruto looked curiously.

Suddenly, he noticed a large crater not far away.

It may have rained recently, and there was a lot of rain in the big pit, and it looked like a pool.

The crater doesn't look like it's natural.

And Sasuke also looked over there, "Wasn't that a pit you made that night, Naruto?" ”

"That night?" Naruto thought for a moment.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration occurred in my mind.

"It's here!"

The three of them have also come to a familiar place.

Because, it was here that they ambushed the Hyuga sect before.

The elders of the dignified Hyuga clan were buried here.

Death at Naruto's hands.

And the other two elders of the Hyuga clan guarded ......

One is to die in the sandwich of white and fragrant phosphorus.

The other died at Sasuke's hands.

Three people were buried in this place.

"Imps!" "I won't talk nonsense to you, the second round of exams is to test your ability to survive in the wild, adapt to changes, and make decisions and plans." Moreover, this round of exams is still very dangerous, and there may even be casualties, because you are allowed to fight! ”

Everyone: "!! ”

Allowed to play?!

Sunset Hong took out a stack of paper from her arms: "This is the consent form to participate in the second round of the exam, you can also treat this as a matter of life and death, as long as you sign this consent form, you can participate in this round of the exam." But if he is killed in the Forest of Death, or dies by accident, Konoha is not responsible. ”

"Of course...... If it's just an injury, even if you're seriously injured, Konoha will provide you with free treatment until one day you can be discharged from the hospital. ”

Then, Sunset Red pulled out two more scrolls of different colors.

"In addition to the extreme survival challenges, you have two main objectives - first, there is a tower in the heart of the Forest of Death, and you need to reach the tower. Second, it's the 'Reel War'! ”

"This is the Heaven Book Scroll and the Earth Book Scroll, only by merging the two scrolls together and reaching the Tower can you pass this round of exams."

"Remember......"

Sunset Red smiled and said, "A Book of Heaven and a Book of Earth can only allow one team to pass the exam. Half of the teams will receive the Book of Heaven, and half of the teams will receive the Book of Earth. ”

"As for how you snatch another scroll from the hands of other teams, it's up to you to do it yourself!"

Sunset Red stretched out a hand.

Open five fingers.

"Five days...... The time limit is five days. Within five days, if a team does not collect the Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth and arrives at the Tower, they will be disqualified from the Zhongnin Examination. ”

After hearing her say these rules.

The crowd was thoughtful.

Half of the team has the Book of Heaven and half of the team has the Book of Earth, but in order to pass the exam, the two scrolls must be merged and the two scrolls must be taken to the Tower in the heart of the Forest of Death.

"It seems that at least half of the people in this round of exams will be eliminated."

Bai said: "I just counted, we have a total of 83 people, of which there are 27 groups in groups of three, and 1 group in teams of two, adding up to 28 groups of teams. ”

"I'm afraid...... Only 14 squads were able to pass this round, and this is still the ideal state, after all, there will always be some people...... You may not be able to reach the tower for five days. ”

Shiro continued, "Plus, if ninjas are allowed to fight each other, there may be some deaths at that time. ”

"It's a cruel exam!"

Bai sighed.

"Humph!" Sasuke snorted lightly, with a confident smile on his face, "The more this is, the more interesting it is, isn't it?" Isn't the purpose of our participation in the middle ninja exam just to fight with the lower ninjas of other ninja villages and see where the gap between us and them is? ”

The weather is very sunny today.

Sasuke felt like he could do it.

"Indeed." Bai Yingying smiled: "I can only say that people don't offend me, I don't offend people." If anyone kills us with murderous intent, then don't blame us for killing all three of them. ”

Shiro said the most chilling words in a gentle tone.

Soon.

All of them have filled out the consent form.

And, each of the different groups was given a scroll.

The distribution of the scrolls was kept secret, and no one knew which group took the Book of Heaven, and no one knew who took the Book of Earth.

In other words, each group did not have an early target.

When the time comes, you will have to fight in the Forest of Death, and you will have to fight to find out what scroll the other party has in hand.

There is also a certain probability of stealing the wrong reel.

The difficulty of the exam is very high.

"The Forest of Death has forty-four entrances." Sunset clapped her hands, putting everyone's attention on her: "Each group will enter through a different entrance, so ...... You'll be able to avoid a fight at the entrance. Don't worry, there will be examiners to take you there. ”

"Thirty minutes later, everyone will be in the Forest of Death."

Sunset Red thought for a moment, and she suddenly added, "Oh yes, I almost forgot something, don't be curious to open the scroll!" Otherwise, there will be very unexpected surprises. ”

"Surprise...... I always think it's going to be frightening! Inuzuka felt the scroll in her arms, and she couldn't help but whisper.

Thirty minutes later.

All are in place.

"Entrance 19......" Shiro looked up at the sign above, and he, Naruto and Sasuke, were standing in front of the entrance.

"Let's go in, the exam begins." One of the shinobi examiners yawned, then waved his hand at the three of them.

Naruto, Sasuke, Shiro, the three of them looked at each other for a moment.

They don't hesitate to step right into it.

The iron mesh door behind him was shut.

They also heard the sound of locking.

"There are two directions we can choose at the moment, the first is to wander around the Forest of Death, and when we meet other teams, we grab their scrolls."

Bai began to analyze: "The second is to run directly to the tower, and wait for them to run to the tower as well." Then, grab their scrolls again. ”

"First!"

Sasuke began to feel a little "hungry and thirsty": "The tower must be ten kilometers away from here, and the running speed in the forest will be greatly reduced, and it will take a day or two to run over there. And we have to rest, hunt, and maybe even get there for three days. ”

"It's better to wander slowly in the Forest of Death, and run wherever you hear movement. In this way, as soon as we meet someone, we will directly rob them of the scroll, and it will not be too late to walk to the tower. ”

Sasuke offered his own suggestions and ideas.

After hearing this, Naruto tightened the somewhat loose forehead guard on his forehead.

He grinned, "No comment." ”

Bai also smiled: "It's okay." ”

For the three of them, it doesn't matter what happens, because they all have the confidence to stand out.

The second round of exams, which sounded very difficult, was a versus game in the eyes of the three of them.

There is danger.

But not much.

After the three of them made their decision, they went straight into the Forest of Death.

The Forest of Death is not small.

Think of it as a huge circle with a diameter of 20 kilometers.

Such a large place is crammed into more than eighty shinobi.

Want to meet each other......

The difficulty is indeed not small

However, Naruto has the domineering ability of seeing and hearing, and under the opening of the domineering of seeing and hearing, Naruto's senses have been amplified.

He can hear movement far away, he can see far distances, and he can smell some smells that he can't normally smell.

This also means that Naruto is not only the main force among the three of them, but also the only sentient ninja among the three.

Of course.

There are also Sentient Ninjas in other teams.

And there are quite a few of them!

"Found it...... That's this damn blonde stinky little guy! Hum! Of all the candidates, he was the only one with blonde hair, and I would never be mistaken. ”

Meanwhile.

Surreptitiously.

The three Shinobi of the Sand Hidden Village hid their bodies.

They were in the shadows, peering at Naruto, Sasuke, and Shiro.

There was a grudge between them and Naruto.

Because Naruto crushed the wrist of one of their fellow ninjas at the beginning of the exam, and in front of so many ninjas, they lost all the face of their Sand Hidden Village.

This feud is not small.

"The second round of exams is a life and death certificate!"

A sand hides shinobi with a murderous face: "Even if you kill these three little ghosts, it should be no problem, right?" Then we snatched their scrolls, and we headed straight for the tower. ”

Their voices were very low.

Quieter than the sound of insects.

"They're going in that direction, they're not very fast, we can overtake them, set up a trap over there in advance, and let the three imps fall into the trap!"

The three Shinobu of the Sand Hidden Village immediately reached a consensus.

Their figures flickered.

They all started to act.

……

On the way to "Naruto ......", the excited look on Sasuke's face had dissipated.

At this moment, he was a little hesitant and a little embarrassed.

It's like trying to say something.

"Huh? What's wrong Sasuke? Naruto put his hands on the back of his head, he didn't have any defense, as if he had come for an outing.

"Ahem...... That ......" Sasuke was very entangled.

The pride of the Uchiha clan made him not know whether to say it or not.

But if you don't say it.

How can he get stronger?

Ultimately.

Sasuke gritted his teeth.

Still make up your mind.

"You...... The domineering thing you said, it's a kind of ...... Can't you pass on a family secret art? Sasuke struggled for a long time, and he finally asked this sentence.

"Oh?" Naruto's eyes twitched.

He hooked Sasuke's shoulders, and the two of them hooked their shoulders and backs, and smiled slyly: "Seeing and hearing such a powerful trick, it must be the secret technique of our Whitebeard Pirates!" ”

“…… I see. Sasuke replied with his head down.

Mainly after a wave of disgrace today.

It made Sasuke feel that Naruto's sight and hearing was very domineering.

Able to ignore the effects of illusion.

You know, he has a pair of single-hook jade writing wheel eyes that have been tricked!

If...... He also learned Naruto's domineering appearance.

You must be able to take your strength to the next level, right?

Can you get one step closer to revenge?

Sasuke knew that the man who killed his parents was good at illusions.

Learn to see and smell domineering.

Will he be able to restrain him?

"Sasuke, you want to learn to be domineering, right?"

Naruto saw through Sasuke's careful thoughts at a glance: "Actually, it's not that I can't teach you, but you're not a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, so it's a bit hard to say." ”

“…… That's it. "Sasuke wouldn't force Naruto to teach him the secret art of the Whitebeard Pirates.

"But!"

But at this moment, Naruto's tone suddenly changed again: "It's not that I can't teach you, but there needs to be a prerequisite!" ”

Sasuke immediately looked at Naruto, who was close at hand.

"On what terms?"

For Naruto, this kind of action that has to hook his shoulders at every turn.

He had long been accustomed to numbness.

There is no resistance either.

"Sasuke, as the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, I invite you to join the Whitebeard Pirates!" Naruto had a smile on his face, but his tone was very serious: "Are you willing to join the Whitebeard Pirates and become my family of Naruto Uzumaki?" Would you rather be Edward Newgate's son? ”

Naruto can be said to be speechless, and his short sentence stunned Sasuke's whole person.

Sasuke was dumbfounded.

He instinctively wanted to say no, after all, it was very challenging to let the son of the Uchiha patriarch join the Whitebeard Pirates and recognize Whitebeard as his father.

But if you refuse, it will get stuck in your throat as soon as it swells up.

Even Sasuke himself doesn't know why he can't say it?

Was it difficult to refuse Naruto's invitation?

You can say no with one word, right?

But......

Do you really want to say no?

Sasuke was confused.

Ever since the Uchiha clan was almost wiped out by the Uchiha Itachi, since seeing countless times through illusions that their parents were killed by the Uchiha Itachi...... Every day of Sasuke's life was very confused.

He often wakes up in his sleep, often feels that his parents are not dead, and often feels that he still lives in the Uchiha station.

Until after a high-intensity masochistic training with Naruto.

He gradually got rid of that muddy sense of confusion.

Sasuke also attended several banquets during that time.

It is a banquet held by the Whitebeard Pirates.

Let's be honest.

Sasuke was very envious of Naruto's family atmosphere, the death of his parents...... It also makes him very eager to have a family.

Every night, the endless loneliness invades his body and mind, and his heart gradually becomes closed day by day.

The surviving clansmen were vaguely isolated from him.

It made Sasuke even more at a loss.

Lonely.

Hatred.

Camaraderie.

Affection.

Confused.

One extremely complicated emotion after another kept surging into Sasuke's heart because of Naruto's words just now.

He stared blankly at Naruto's sincere eyes.

The heart that is becoming more and more closed seems to have been carved out of a small hole.

Sasuke faltered a little.
