Gen-ye is the backbone of the group; he is experienced and his advice is very helpful.
Xuan Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, the simplest way is to go to the area near the finish line first. As time goes by, the examinees will arrive, and we can then snatch the scrolls from them!"
“However!” Genye paused for a moment before continuing, “The purpose of this exam is not only to test yourselves, but also to train you. I hope that you two can take advantage of this Chunin Exam to train more in the Forest of Death and continuously improve your overall strength.”
With Genye's power, passing this group exam would be a piece of cake, but that would defeat the purpose of taking the exam.
The ninja world has always been cruel.
For the two friends.
What Genba can do.
I just gave them some pointers.
Strengthen their power.
"We'll do our best!" With their minds made up, Sarutobi Taro and Nami nodded, indicating that they would do their best in the Chunin Exams!
"Keep it up!" Xuan Ye encouraged him.
Suddenly.
A black centipede, seven or eight zhang long, darted out of the dense forest. Its huge, blood-red mouth, complete with fangs, lunged at Sarutobi Taro, who could even smell the stench emanating from it.
However, Sarutobi Taro was also very alert and immediately used the "Body Flicker Technique". After leaping high into the air, he threw several shuriken into the black centipede's body, but they did not cause much damage to the opponent.
The black centipede, in pain, revealed a fierce glint in its large, bell-shaped eyes. Despite its enormous size, it was exceptionally agile, scrambling rapidly across the grass to bite Sarutobi Taro once more.
Nami, who was in the distance, also made a swift move.
Several kunai were shot at the black centipede.
Two kunai were dodged by the black centipede as it twisted and turned, while another kunai shot into its left abdomen.
The detonator exploded.
A loud "boom" explosion was heard.
Immediately, chunks of meat spilled out.
Juice splashed out.
Seeing the black centipede writhing in pain, Sarutobi Taro's body flickered repeatedly, and after a moment he arrived at its injured left side, where he then used Fire Release.
The raging flames burned on the black centipede's abdomen, causing it to let out a shrill scream.
Nami seized the opportunity and threw the kunai into the centipede's mouth.
Then another explosion occurred.
The black centipede's head exploded.
Threat eliminated!
"It's over!" Nami gasped for breath.
That was too dangerous.
Fortunately, they realized what was happening.
Sarutobi Taro was also covered in a cold sweat.
Watching the two work together seamlessly, Xuan Ye also showed a faint smile.
Then.
The two moved cautiously through the woods.
"Byakugan activated!" Nami's face showed the marks left by using the Byakugan.
After entering the Death Forest, Nami was almost ambushed by a black centipede because she didn't activate her Byakugan immediately. So now she's on high alert.
at the same time.
The scene within a kilometer ahead appeared clearly in her pure white eyes.
The white eye still plays a very important role in intelligence gathering.
“There is a large python hanging on a tree 200 meters up. Its color is very similar to the tree. We should be careful of its sneak attack, or we should take a detour.”
“More than 800 meters away, there are three people hiding in the leaves. They have set a trap, and they are carrying strange things on their backs and have chakra threads on their hands. It seems that they are puppeteers from Sunagakure!”
"A puppeteer?" Sarutobi Taro frowned.
Besides the endless sand, Sunagakure is also famous for its puppeteers.
However, although the enemy had laid an ambush, our side had the Byakugan bloodline limit and already knew about the enemy's ambush!
After discussing it, the two quietly made their way toward the three people from Sunagakure.
When they got close to the three people.
Sarutobi Taro used the "Shadow Clone Technique" to pretend to be a lost examinee and, in his panic, fell into the trap!
Instantly.
A large net scooped up "Sarutobi Taro".
"awesome!"
A relatively young Sand Ninja stood up excitedly.
This was his first time participating in the Chunin Exams.
When an enemy falls into a trap you have set.
He seemed extremely excited!
"Idiot, don't reveal your identity!"
When the Sand Ninja jumped out, Sarutobi Taro, who was caught in the net, made a "bang" sound. By the time the three realized it was a shadow clone, it was too late.
A massive ball of fire fell from the sky, destroying everything in its path before engulfing the three Sand Ninja.
"Get out of the way!" the Sand Ninja in charge shouted. The three quickly moved aside, followed by an explosion of fireballs, with flames flying everywhere. One of them was burned on the arm and lost most of his fighting ability.
When the three of them landed.
Another round of shuriken came flying in with a "whoosh whoosh whoosh".
Then, the Sand Ninja leader, Shozaburo, unwrapped the bandages on his back, revealing a humanoid puppet with four arms, each wielded by a sharp blade.
"Clang clang clang!"
Shozaburo manipulated the puppet through the pale blue chakra threads between his ten fingers, deflecting the shuriken one by one, which then scattered on the ground.
Only the boy who had just exclaimed seemed to have no time to dodge, and his arm was cut by the shuriken, blood gushing out, and a painful expression appeared on his face.
At the same time.
Nami, having activated her Byakugan, approached Shozaburo and immediately began using Gentle Fist.
"Eight Trigrams Thirty-Two Palms!"
"Bang bang bang!"
His palm techniques were nimble and swift as the wind.
Shozaburo reacted immediately and controlled the puppet to fight Nami. However, Nami had already mastered the Gentle Fist technique to a certain extent, and he gradually found it difficult to hold on. In the end, the puppet was shattered.
This wasn't the first time Sarutobi Taro and Nami had collaborated, so their teamwork was still able to achieve quick results.
Seeing their captain lose so quickly, the other two were also very disappointed and had no choice but to hand over the scroll.
However, the fact that the opponent also possessed a Heavenly Scroll made the two of them feel somewhat disappointed.
We have no choice but to find another opponent!
the next day.
Sarutobi Taro, Nami, and the others encountered the Tauyubi team from Kumogakure. To the two of them, the opponents were indeed very strong, but they eventually defeated them with a weakened version of "Sage Art" and obtained the Earth Scroll. As long as they reach the finish line, they can win.
However, instead of heading towards the finish line, the two chose to continue their training and enhance their overall strength.
The training continues!
...
Suddenly, transparent ice spikes shot out rapidly from the dense forest in the distance!
The target is Genye and the others!
"Eight Trigrams Palm - Reversal of Heaven!" Nami immediately stepped in front, releasing chakra from her acupoints. Her body spun rapidly like a top, quickly shattering the oncoming ice spikes into ice shards that scattered everywhere.
"Oh? That's interesting!"
"Hand over the scroll!" A cold-looking woman emerged from behind the trees, radiating an aura of chill.
"It's actually Yuki Ichirin!" Sarutobi Taro's face flashed with shock upon seeing this person.
Nami asked, "Taro-kun, who is she?"
The intelligence expert, Sarutobi Taro, said with a serious expression, "She is Rin from the Yuki clan of Kirigakure. This is her third time participating in the Chunin Exams. She was disqualified the previous two times for murder. Otherwise, with her strength, she would have passed the Chunin Exams long ago!"
As he spoke, a wry smile appeared on Sarutobi Taro's face.
The opponent possesses a Bloodline Limit Ice Shield.
At least he still has the strength of a Jonin.
They could easily crush the two of them.
However, the two will not give up!
Xue Yilin's voice was cold as he said, "Hand over the scroll, or I'll kill you!"
"Konoha has a wealth of talented ninjas, aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew?" Sarutobi Taro said, feigning composure. Both of them possessed weakened versions of "Sage Mode," so perhaps they could put up a fight?
Meanwhile, Nami was also in the best fighting stance.
"Then don't blame me for not showing mercy!" Xue Yilin quickly formed hand seals and said, "Ice Shield - Icy World".
As Rin's voice faded.
A blizzard appeared.
The location where everyone is.
In an instant, it transformed into a world of ice and snow.
Temperatures plummeted!
"It's so cold, Ah Qiu!" It was autumn, and everyone was only wearing a thin short-sleeved shirt.
The temperature suddenly dropped below 0 degrees Celsius.
Even though ninjas have strong physical abilities.
But I was still shivering from the cold!
Even though Sarutobi Taro is a bit overweight and has a lot of fat, he can only relieve the discomfort caused by the cold by shivering in such low temperatures.
Nami, standing next to her, was trembling uncontrollably. Her bright face turned pale, and frost began to form on her long eyelashes, making her appear extremely cold.
"Put these on!" Genye took off his long-sleeved shirt and handed it to Nami, leaving himself with only a short-sleeved shirt.
Gen-ye himself possessed the body of a celestial being.
Even though the temperature was very low, it didn't affect him much; he just felt very cool.
Nami initially wanted to refuse, but after seeing Genye's unquestionable gaze, she had no choice but to obediently put on Genye's coat, silently thinking, "Genye is so nice."
Nami was only ten years old at the time, but to Genye’s surprise, even though she was young, her figure was somewhat similar to Hinata’s in the future. She was thin where she should be thin and plump where she should be plump. She was sure to have a magnificent future!
This made Genye marvel at the power of the Hyuga clan's genes!
Xue Yilin suddenly made a move.
She gently extended her right hand, then grabbed it forcefully. Dozens of blue and white ice spikes appeared in front of her. With a soft "Go!" she uttered, the ice spikes hurtled towards the three of them at an extremely fast speed.
Ice Release: Ice Cone Break!
Upon seeing this, Sarutobi Taro immediately thought of a corresponding solution.
He first quickly formed hand seals and used "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique," but relying solely on flames was not enough to break through the opponent's ice spikes. So Sarutobi Taro threw out kunai with explosive tags attached, and the moment they collided, they made a "boom boom boom" sound.
Xue Yilin's first attack was blocked!
