Chapter 61 The test between the team and Dao Mantis

"So, I know a lot about it." Inuzukao said stupidly, pressing his nose.

(﹁﹁)→_→

Feeling a little confused by the two completely different gazes, Inuzukao quickly waved his hand.

"Okay, I won't hide anything."

"Dad said that Aburame Special Commander and my brother Yi are classmates, and he is also the captain who is best at protecting his subordinates. Even when facing jounin, he has never caused any casualties to his subordinates."

"If you put it this way, is it possible that the captain is the Aburame who 'will never face an enemy'?"

Nara Yoshino was stunned after hearing Inuzuka's words. He took out a notebook from his ninja bag and opened it quickly.

"Found it, Aburame Tetsumaru, newly promoted special jounin, 0 D-level missions, 121 C-level missions, 71 B-level missions, 11 A-level missions,..."

Nara Yoshino's throat was a little dry: "...S-level mission 2 times."

"You're kidding!"

"How is that possible!?"

How come you have just been promoted to Special Jounin with such statistics? What kind of monsters are the veteran Jounin?

Uchiha Hiro looked incredulous, pretending to be Boyi and said: "Such a special jounin is not bad, he is qualified to be my captain."

"Inuzukao, if you know any other information, please tell me."

"Oh, okay."

"Also, there are so many nicknames: 'Giant Insect Messenger', 'Konoha Insect Demon', and 'Hand-Broken Crazy Demon'. This is really... brutal..." Inuzukao said, making his hair stand on end.

When he heard the parents talk about this information at his own home in Konoha Village, he only thought it was fun and cool. But on the front line, when he was about to face the captain, it would be scary to mention these nicknames again.

Just when the three genin were frightened by the information, Aburame Tetsumaru suddenly spoke.

"Well, I really didn't know I had so many terrible nicknames. It's so funny."

Because Aburame Tetsumaru was standing behind Inuzukao, this wild boy was frightened the most, and suddenly jumped forward onto Uchiha.

Inuzukao hugged Hiro's head tightly, trembling.

On Inuzukao's head, a black ninja dog was also trembling.

One of Nara Yoshino and Uchiha Hiro wanted to laugh and the other was furious, but they both held back and cautiously adopted defensive postures.

"not bad."

Aburame Tetsumaru stretched out his hand to take off the shivering ninja dog, and smoothly took off the Inuzuka tail, and then spoke.

"As a scout, my acuity is up to par."

Then he put down the two puppies and pointed at Nara Yoshino: "As a think tank, my brain is fine. As a ninja of the Nara family, my motivation is not bad. I passed the test."

Finally, he pointed at Uchiha Hiro and said: "As an Uchiha, it is rare that my mind is not confused and my eyes are not blind, which is very good."

"However, it's strange that you haven't heard of me. Do you know Uchiha Kei?"

"Ah? Cousin Qi? I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Really? Don't you have any communication among your family?"

"Forget it, instead of talking about others, let me introduce myself formally."

"I am Tetsumaru Aburame, a newly promoted special jounin, and your captain. Above."

"As for you, I already know your names, and then I will use tests to learn more about you."

"It's 5:25 now. I'll give you 35 minutes to discuss tactics. The test will start at 6:00 sharp."

"I am a special Jonin, so I will not take action directly in this test, and I allow you to observe the test subject in advance."

After saying that, Aburame Tetsumaru used psychic skills to summon a sword mantis.

After the white smoke dispersed, the eyes of the three genin almost popped out. They had indeed heard of the name of the Giant Insect Messenger, but they didn't say it was so huge.

Dao Mantis is responsible for short-distance raids and ambush, and can also be used for frontal attacks.

From any angle, the Sword Mantis is a praying mantis, except for its size, which stands at a height of 3.5 meters. It is a large, unpretentious insect, which is too big.

The three genin closed their chins and looked at the big mantis, which was more than three meters high, and the pair of large hook swords that were more than one meter long and covered with spikes. It was so scary.

Look at the windbreaker ninja standing next to Dao Mantis. He is raising his hand to stroke Mantis' head. He is a pervert for his height.

Aburame Tetsumaru left Sword Mandarin behind and left the No. 1 training ground to prepare breakfast.

"Tell me, how tall is Captain Aburame?" The anxious Inuzukao asked while hugging his own ninja dog to comfort him.

"At least 1.9 meters, maybe more."

Uchiha Hiro was very courageous. He stood on tiptoes and tried to touch Dao Mantis's head. However, at just 1.4 meters tall, he was far out of reach, missing the length of two arms.

Nara Yoshino did not answer. He approached Dao Mantis and looked up and down.

Three people and a dog surrounded the large, motionless mantis, carefully observing and testing it. Nara Yoshino touched the shell and spikes on the mantis.

After a while, the three genin left together and hid in the woods.

The test was not only against the three genin, but also against the sword mantis.

The endurance test has been completed and now it is time to test the actual combat.

But Aburame Tetsumaru himself was not suitable for the test. With the complete completion of the Ninjutsu, numerous ninjutsu and taijutsu, as well as systematic ninja knowledge were exchanged from Orochimaru, which made up for the shortcomings of the Aburame family inheritance.

After two more years of hard work, Aburame Tetsumaru's strength improved by leaps and bounds along with his physical development. He was not sure what level he was at. Anyway, he could easily kill Dao Mantis, making the test meaningless.

And these three genin from famous families can be regarded as inexperienced chuunin, and they are the best test standards.

At six o'clock, Tiewan bought four breakfasts and stood in a deserted open space to announce the start of the test.

The sword mantis, which had been motionless for thirty-five minutes, suddenly jumped up, spread its wings and flew to the treetops. After flying dozens of meters, it retracted its wings and fell into the woods.

Mantises are ambush hunters. When acting alone, they follow instinctive hunting techniques, which are instinctive techniques engraved in genes for hundreds of millions of years.

If the opponent knows the habits of bugs in advance, they can target them more easily, like now.

Dao Mantis caught the target in the woods. As soon as he started tracking, he stepped on a trap. His legs were hung up and he lost his mobility.

When breaking out of the trap, they were attacked repeatedly by Hiro Uchiha and Inuzukao with shurikens, kunai, and long swords. The two were shocked to find that none of their ninja attacks could break through their defenses.

The two genin were shocked and used their ultimate moves. One sprayed out five fireballs, and the other used his family's Tongya, finally breaking one of Dao Mantis's legs and causing several damages.

But the fireball also helped Dao Mantis escape from the trap. With only three legs left and his speed greatly affected, he launched a counterattack and almost hooked Inuzukao.

Fortunately, Nara Yoshino used the Shadow Secret Technique to control the sword mantis. Under the cover of the Shadow Secret Technique, the two genin launched another round of attacks, but the power of the hasty attack was too weak and failed to cause effective damage.

Nara Yoshino's chakra was not enough to control such a large psychic insect for a long time, so the three genin had to retreat temporarily.

This round of attack caused three obvious cracks in the shell of the mantis, especially the broken leg that was blown off by the fireball. This injury was quite serious. Because the giant bug has high blood pressure, the broken leg and several cracks were losing blood violently.

.

Fortunately, the mantis is not a single insect, but a hybrid product containing many parasitic species. The problem of injury was considered during the design stage. If it were still an ordinary insect, its huge blood pressure could destroy all the internal organs suspended in the blood.

Squirt out.

Aburame Tetsumaru has equipped the mantis with a series of symbiotic parasites to meet various requirements after it grows to a huge size. Among them, there are emergency blocking parasites that are specially designed to deal with damaged shells.

Soon, the white amoeba squeezed out of the wound that spurted blood like a water pipe. When exposed to the air, it quickly turned black and hardened, sealing the wound.

At this time, Dao Mantis still had three legs, his two swords were completely uninjured, and his combat effectiveness was not greatly reduced.

The pain stimulated the sword mantis, and it began to secrete a large amount of hormones, its heartbeat accelerated, and its eyes became congested and turned purple. After entering a violent state, the sword mantis became faster and more powerful, and continued to chase the three little ninjas who had hurt it.

In the next two hours, the mantis kept falling into the traps set by Nara Yoshino. It relied on its hard enough carapace and strong enough strength to flatten one trap after another.

The three genin tried their best to suppress the bottom of the box, but were unable to seriously injure the mantis until Uchiha Hiro discovered a second type of insect attached to the breathing hole of the mantis during close combat.

After he reported this information, Nara Yoshino guessed that the breathing hole might be the giant insect's Achilles' heel, so he devised a new tactic.

"Nara, if it doesn't work this time, we really can't hold on."

Uchiha Hiroshi gasped for air. He was in charge of the main battle. His chakra had long been exhausted and his physical strength was also extremely exhausted.

Nara Yoshino also looked disgraced, and replied with a forced smile: "Don't worry, we should be able to succeed this time."

As for Inuzuka, he was so tired that he didn't even want to say anything. Who knows that his family's secret technique also involves hand-to-hand combat, which made him the only unlucky guy to be injured.

The three of them got silt by the creek, blocked the breathing hole of the mantis, and gave it the effect of suffocating breathing, which caused the mantis' speed and strength to decrease, and even exited the violent state, and then they won the battle with difficulty.

This test.

Aburame Tetsumaru was very satisfied with this, both in terms of the strength of Dao Mantis and the strength of his subordinates.

Dao Mantis was defeated by three new genin in the test and fell into traps repeatedly. This was not a problem.

This is because the Sword Mantis is designed as the real attack cannon fodder of the insect swarm. The cannon fodder is to clear all traps and open roads and bridges for the main insects.

Even now, Dao Mantis's role is to serve as the backbone of surprise attacks. During battles, they carry out raids in groups, with a large number of bugs to assist and open roads. Such traps will be discovered and cracked by other bugs.

Dao Mantis suppressed three genin in the dense forest and continued fighting for more than three hours. His endurance was acceptable and his defense was excellent.

His subordinates are also very good and can break through the defense of the mantis. This is a two-finger thick chitin carapace. Very few senior genin have such strong attack power.
