Chapter two hundred and sixty fifth strange ghost shark
"This exam is a bit troublesome because there are too many people. We'd better plan it."
In a hidden corner of the Forest of Death, Zuosuke spoke in a low voice, and at the same time he also took out a map.
This exam was obviously a bit troublesome, although it wasn't really stressful for them.
The three of them are definitely above the level of genin in terms of strength and ability, but they must be careful when doing things. It would not be a good thing if they overturned.
Especially Zuosuke still remembers the guy with red hair and no eyebrows. That guy made Zuosuke feel extremely dangerous.
It's not that this guy is strong, but there seems to be a monster hidden inside him, a suffocating monster.
He would not hide this matter, he had already told his father, and he also specially emphasized that this guy was somewhat similar to Naruto.
He is not the guy Uchiha Itachi. If there is anything beyond his ability to handle, he will never hide it.
But his action of taking out the map made Naruto dumbfounded. Naruto's eyes widened and he asked in disbelief.
"Zosuke, you cheated. Where did you get the map?"
"idiot."
Zuosuke rolled his eyes before speaking.
"You see clearly, this is a tourist map of Konoha. The location of the Death Forest is marked on it. There is not much other information at all!"
"oh oh."
Naruto took a closer look, then smiled and touched his head, but he asked a little strangely.
"There's nothing on it, it just marks the places where animals roam. What's the point?"
"Can you stop being such an idiot?"
Zuosuke sighed, then shook his head.
"What we have to do now is to find a suitable intersection point that can be found.
This meeting point cannot be too close to the tower, but it must not be too far either, so that we can better ambush other teams."
Zuosuke's idea is actually very simple, that is, find a suitable location, and then hide there to ambush.
Because the people who can run there definitely have scrolls on them, and may even have completed collecting them!
So in this case, they can definitely gain more, which is better than wandering around in this ghost place looking for enemies.
What's more, actively occupying geographical advantages can also give them more choices. For example, they can choose to take action or not to avoid certain people.
Just like the ninjas of Konoha, they are just like some dangerous and difficult people to deal with.
In fact, what they didn't know was that due to some people's reasons, Orochimaru did not dress up as a genin to sneak in this time, nor did he keep his eyes on Zuosuke.
After all, for Orochimaru now, one Uchiha Hahara is enough to give him a headache, and if someone else mixes in, he is either sick or has a tendency to be abused.
Especially since Uchiha Sasuke was Hahara's disciple, it was impossible for Orochimaru not to know this, so he had no interest in causing trouble for Uchiha Sasuke.
But similarly, the trouble they encountered this time will definitely not be low. Because of the intervention of the Akatsuki organization, this Chunin Exam will definitely not be easy.
The three of them studied the map there for a long time, and finally found a pretty good location on this map that didn't have much information at all.
After confirming the location, they had to go to the point they marked to take a closer look, because the map was too crude.
...
Just when they were determining their location, a figure in a black and red cloud suit appeared in the Forest of Death.
His eyes scanned the entire forest, and his shark face was still fresh in people's minds. This guy was a ghost!
Guijiao's heart has indeed been in turmoil, but he still hasn't figured out how to do it.
Therefore, while considering his future and destiny, he also needs to collect some necessary information.
What's more, he knows one thing very well. Even if he makes a complete decision, he still has to show his worth!
As a ninja, especially a rebel ninja, if you want to join a force, you must let the other party know your value.
If you don't have enough value, then I'm afraid they won't even look at you, and they may even not give you any trust at all because of your past betrayal.
Especially since Onigayo had already rejected Uchiha Hahara once, he had to show his value and make the other party realize that he still had enough value.
Only in this way can ghost friends feel at ease, and the other party may have a chance to re-accept themselves!
"Is that yellow-haired brat just now Uzumaki Naruto, the son of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, the Yondaime Hokage?"
Onigao silently muttered in his heart that this was the information Orochimaru provided to them. He planned to observe the situation of this brat before taking further action.
As for taking action against the Kyuubi, this was not within the scope of his consideration. At least for now, he did not have this option.
He's just here to investigate information and determine the target, that's all!
"Those brats have gone far away, I'd better follow them quickly."
Guijiao was muttering to himself, but at this moment, a figure appeared strangely in front of him.
Guijiao immediately became alert, and then he saw a pair of scarlet three magatama staring at him!
"Long time no see, dry persimmon ghost friends."
"It's you, Uchiha Shisui."
Guijiao just glanced at the scarlet eyes and did not look at him again, but he also recognized who this person was!
This is Uchiha Shisui, the deputy chief of the Uchiha clan, a powerful figure who holds the title of Security Governor of Konoha, and also possesses the Mangekyo Sharingan!
This person is still very familiar to ghost friends. After all, they have also met each other. When he and Hahara met for the first time, this guy was also there.
Moreover, Onigao has also seen this guy's strength. Like Uchiha Hahara, he can control the chakra giant named Susano Nohu to fight.
What's more, he also has a nickname that everyone knows, and that is Shunshen Shisui. This guy is also extremely afraid of ghosts!
"Although we are familiar with each other, there is one more thing I am curious about."
Zhisui spoke indifferently. As he spoke, he reached out and pulled out the ninja sword behind him.
"As a member of the Akatsuki organization, why did you come to our Konoha? I hope you can answer this question."
"What if I don't want to answer?"
Guijiao looked at Shisui's movements, his eyes instantly became extremely alert, and the chakra in his body began to surge.
Faced with such a dangerous guy, Guijiao knew that if he was just a little careless, he might be close to death!
Therefore, no matter how careful you are, you will never go wrong.
"Well, that's really a pity."
Zhisui shook his head slightly, and the next moment his figure suddenly disappeared, and Guijiao instantly felt endless pressure rushing towards him!
He raised the knife without hesitation, and almost at the same time, the roar of metal collision sounded in his ears.
He immediately exerted force on his wrist and quickly pushed Shisui away from him. The next moment, he jumped back and completed a seal with one hand raised upright.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A huge water dragon spurted out from his mouth under the influence of his chakra, roaring towards Shisui.
Although Shisui has been using White Zetsu's cells to strengthen himself over the years, in terms of strength, there is still a slight gap between him and a pervert like Oniko.
Therefore, it was not unusual for him to be pushed away, and when he saw the huge water dragon, he just snorted coldly.
"Fire Release: The Art of Fireball!"
It's not like he doesn't know how difficult it is to deal with ghost friends, but he is confident in dealing with this guy.
A huge fireball quickly spurted out under his control, and then quickly headed towards the water dragon.
"boom!"
When the fireball and the water dragon collided with each other in the sky, a muffled sound instantly filled the area.
The water mist was lingering, and the visibility became extremely low at this moment. However, in this mist, the sound of metal collision suddenly sounded.
This time, the collision became extremely fierce, and the 'ping-ping-pong-pong' sound was suffocating.
Thick fog can indeed block the line of sight, but now Shisui fights no longer rely solely on his eyes to capture the enemy's direction.
Under the influence of Bai Jue cells, his perception is definitely not weak, and he can completely rely on his perception to track down the enemy!
The advantage that the Mist Ninja had in the thick fog no longer existed here.
"But this ghost friend is still very troublesome. His sword skills and chakra are really amazing."
While Zhisui was fighting Guijiao, he was thinking silently in his heart, and he also made a decision in his heart.
He wanted to end this battle, but he really didn't have much time to spend with this guy.
Moreover, he actually knew the so-called intelligence very clearly. After all, he was the security governor. He knew exactly what the Akatsuki organization wanted to do and what their purpose was.
If it wasn't for the fact that she didn't want the Akatsuki organization to know that they had been exposed long ago, Shisui might not even bother to pretend, after all, it meant nothing to her.
"Then, now!"
Shisui had been waiting for the right moment, and now he caught an opportunity when a ghost wanted to distance himself and use ninjutsu!
In an instant, chakra surged all over his body, green chakra instantly covered his body, and the aura of destruction quickly spread towards the surroundings.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a green chakra has emerged on his body. What's even more terrifying is that this chakra giant also has a huge ninja sword in his hand!
"Oops!"
When Guijiao saw this scene, the sirens in his heart immediately went off. Looking at the giant that had begun to accumulate power, Guijiao immediately changed the original water escape into other escape techniques.
He knows one thing very well, that is, if he cannot stop this attack, his end will definitely be death!
"Earth Escape: Earth Current City Wall!"
Amidst the roaring sound of chakra, a huge piece of Earth Escape rose from the ground, and at the same time, the terrifying blade slammed into the Earth Escape!
"boom!"
A huge explosion rang out from the sky in Konoha, even the candidates who were taking the Chunin Exam were alarmed.
One by one, they looked at the location of the explosion in shock. They had no idea what happened, but they were panicking now.
Not just anyone can create such an explosion, and its power is definitely not easy to imagine. They were all wondering what kind of candidate made the noise.
And they are also thinking about one thing, is a person who can make such a move really a genin?
They couldn't understand, and they didn't even dare to think too much about it. Most of them were genin, and such super-class matters were really not something they could handle or face.
"Tch, he ran really fast."
When the smoke dissipated, Shisui looked at the huge earth wall that had completely collapsed in front of him, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
According to his perception, after the dried persimmon ghost had finished using Earth Escape, he used Earth Escape again to hide underground.
Then this guy ran away crazily into the distance at an almost unimaginable speed. Even Shisui was dumbfounded by that speed.
He really couldn't understand that this guy who was good at water escape could be so good at earth escape and could escape so fast.
But he knew that there was no way he could catch up now even if he wanted to.
But he didn't care that much. They had already anticipated the situation of these guys in Xiao's organization. His decision to take action was just to give these unscrupulous guys some warning.
After all, these guys are not really secretive in Konoha, but if they go too far, Konoha will be very unhappy.
Thinking of this, Shisui took out something and wrote something directly, and then quickly handed it over to the ANBU who rushed over.
Looking at the ANBU that quickly disappeared from his eyes, Zhisui thought to himself silently.
"It seems that the curtain is indeed about to open."
...
In the dark forest, except for the terrifying explosion before, everything around was so silent.
Tall shrubs and jungles grow everywhere, and even at ten o'clock in the afternoon, most of the sunlight is still blocked.
The three members of Team 7 walked in the dark forest, maintaining the vigilance a ninja should have.
Uchiha Sasuke's eyes looked around from time to time, using the insight of Sharingan to explore the surroundings.
They all heard the explosion just now. Such an explosion really shocked them, and they really had the idea to see what was going on.
After all, the place where the explosion occurred didn't seem to be that far away from them, just behind them.
But after thinking about it, they finally began to restrain their impulses and did not do anything to commit suicide.
"Zosuke, what do you think that was just now?"
However, Naruto was still a little worried about the big explosion behind him, and he was really curious about what happened.
"I advise you not to look for trouble. This situation is obviously not something we can get involved in. With Master Shisui over there, everything will be fine."
Uchiha Zuosuke said solemnly, looking around constantly, and then started to become a little dangerous.
"Besides, we have guests now, so let's deal with the problem at hand first."
"Hey, I understand."
Although Naruto was still a little unwilling, looking at Zuosuke's attitude, he really felt that it was better for him not to worry so much.
As for Xiang Rin, he felt that he had the answer without asking, but just like Zuosuke said, it would be absolutely fine with Shisui, the big brother, there.
Naruto still has great trust in Shisui. Although in his opinion, Shisui is not as strong as Habara, he is definitely a trustworthy person.
As for the trouble they might encounter now, Naruto didn't take it too seriously.
Naturally, he could also sense that they had been targeted, so it was the best choice to concentrate on dealing with the trouble in front of him now.
"Come out, how long do you want to hide?"
Seeing Naruto like this, Zuosuke couldn't help but nodded slightly, and then several kunai suddenly appeared in his hand.
Then he took action without hesitation, drawing a line of cold light in the dark forest and disappearing into the bushes in the distance.
A figure appeared immediately, leaping from the bushes to the tree trunk in a few leaps, and let out a gloomy and weird laugh.
"You can actually detect my existence in my disguise. I seem to be a master of the younger generation in Konoha.
Give you a chance, hand over the scroll, and I can spare your lives."
"It's the ninja from Taki Ninja Village. His companions are on their way, not far away."
Xianglin glanced at this guy, and then spoke calmly.
Uchiha Zuosuke looked up, and the scarlet three magatama among the twins had emerged, and his chakra began to surge.
"Hand over your scrolls. As the host, I can let you leave, otherwise..."
Zuosuke's words seemed to be somewhat polite, but there was no politeness in his words.
Zuosuke is still somewhat familiar with Takigakure Village. Not only him, but probably many young people at the same time are also like this, because they have all been with Kakuzu.
The Taki Ninja Village is also a very special one among the many villages in the ninja world. The reason is very simple. They are the only village outside the five major countries that has tailed beasts.
Although I don't know what the first Hokage was thinking, but this is an established fact.
According to unreliable secret rumors, there is a saying that Taki Ninja Village was founded earlier than Konoha, and they are the first Ninja Village in the true sense.
It's just that there is no research yet, and even Kakuzu himself doesn't know much about it.
But regardless of whether this is true or not, the three of them are not afraid of the people in front of them at all. On the contrary, they are still a little excited.
If their scroll is exactly what they need, wouldn't it save them trouble?
"I'll go kill him. Naruto, you're responsible for blocking the enemies that are coming. Xianglin, you monitor that side."
Unable to help but score, Zuosuke rushed out, which made Naruto immediately unhappy. Who would be happy if a guy like this wanted to grab him?
Do you really think that if those two guys come over, they can still fight? Stop making such a joke!
"You little devil looking for death!"
Also unhappy was the Taki-nin. Zuosuke clearly looked down on him, so how could he be happy?
He formed a seal with his hands instantly, and his chakra quickly condensed.
"Water Escape·Water Arrow Technique!"
The rippling chakra water arrow condensed in front of itself, and then shot out in an instant, directly hitting the charging Zuosuke.
Zuosuke watched all this expressionlessly, the Sharingan in his eyes turning slightly.
In an instant, his figure suddenly accelerated, almost appearing as a phantom, moving parallel to the left on the tree trunk, dodging the water arrow with just a hair's breadth.
A trace of surprise appeared on Taki Ninja's face. At this time, Zuosuke's figure was in front of him, and the kunai with a cold light stabbed directly, and instantly touched the guy's neck.
"Hand over the scroll, my promise is still valid, otherwise I will not keep it anymore."
However, the corners of the Taki-nin's mouth raised, and his surprised expression turned into a sneer in an instant.
His body instantly turned into a ball of liquid, which was obviously a water body technique!
The water source that fell at Zuozhu's feet was immediately activated, and the liquid swirled into a water prison, trapping him in an instant.
"Kid, you're still too stunned, Water Escape·Water Prison Technique!"
Not far away, the Taki nin appeared again. He formed seals with his hands, looked at Zuosuke who was unable to move in the water prison, and smiled proudly.
"Do you really think I can't do anything to you? Stop joking!
And because there is no sunlight all year round, this forest has a lot of water, which is especially suitable for us water ninjas to fight."
He was very proud of himself and shouted to Naruto and Xiang Rindao below while maintaining the seal.
"Hey, your two companions have been captured by me. If you don't want anything to happen to him, please hand over the scroll quickly!"
While talking, two figures appeared in two other places in the woods.
They immediately surrounded Naruto and Xiang Rin. They also wore Taki Ninja Village's forehead protectors on their foreheads.
One of them looked at the water prison and couldn't help but smile and said: "Well done, let us take care of these two guys."
Naruto looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but smile and shook his head: "Did you make a mistake? Isn't it a bit too early to declare victory now?"
"What?"
The ninja on the tree was confused, and suddenly discovered that the figure in the water prison had turned into a piece of dead wood at some point.
"Substitute technique, when?"
"In the beginning of course!"
A cold voice sounded behind him, a kunai was placed on his neck, a trace of blood slowly overflowed, and Zuosuke's figure appeared behind him!
"You are so naive to play such a trick in front of the Sharingan."
"So, you are happy too early."
Naruto sighed slightly from below, and then he continued to speak.
"So Zuosuke has to rush to take action, because we are all convinced that as long as one of you is defeated, the battle will be basically over.
It's just an exam, it's a big deal if you lose your life. I don't think you are stupid. You should know how to make a choice.
Moreover, even though this guy Zuosuke is shouting happily, he has already kept his hand again and again.
Now you have only scratched some skin, but you should also know where the kunai is pointed at now, if he uses a little more force..."
The Taki ninja who was controlled by Zuosuke naturally knew what Naruto meant. If this guy from the Uchiha clan really did it, then what would be disconnected would be his aorta!
By that time, even gods will really be unable to save him.
"I think we understand."
The Taki ninja sighed, and then he looked at Zuosuke with a somewhat complicated look from the corner of his eye.
"You Uchiha are really powerful. Rumor has it that your clan leader, Uchiha Hahara, is the strongest in the ninja world.
Even a genin like you has this level, maybe he is really the number one in the ninja world..."
.....
"I understand, thank you for your hard work."
Habara looked at the report in his hand, he couldn't help but nodded slightly, and then he smiled and said to the ANBU who came to deliver the information.
"Master Hahara, you are too polite. This is what I should do. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
This ANBU was not rude because of Habara's politeness. He immediately bowed slightly to Habara and then slowly left here.
Although this ANBU is a new one, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know about some small 'grievances' between Habara and the ANBU.
To put it bluntly, the man in front of me almost killed all the ANBU before him. Although it was an accident, it was also his real achievement.
With such a terrifying existence, every old man in ANBU, who was in charge of the reserve team back then, is still very worried now.
This also made every ANBU who came in afterward extremely worried, even though Habara's behavior had been relatively mild over the years.
It wasn't like Hahara didn't know what these Anbu were thinking. Although he was somewhat helpless, he didn't say much.
After all, some of the dark history of ANBU's past was really caused by him and Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been dead for who knows how long.
"Forget it, just be afraid, it won't affect me anything anyway."
Habara stretched slightly, and then began to think about the information Shisui had conveyed.
What Shisui did was not unusual, and as the Chief of Konoha Security Governor, Hahara believed that he had his own considerations in everything he did.
There is only one thing he cares about now, and that is the action of fucking this guy.
As one of the most ruthless members of the Kirigakure ANBU, Iniki Kakikiyo dared to swagger around the streets of Konoha to gather intelligence, which already speaks volumes.
Even though he did avoid a lot of people, he only avoided ordinary people and ordinary ninjas, and he did a very bad job in this regard.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
He seemed to be in a very subtle state of hesitation, otherwise some people would not notice him, and some people would not notice him at all.
What he did was what made Habara feel most baffled. It didn't seem to be the state that a ninja like him should be in.
"What is he hesitating about?"
Hahara knocked on the table lightly. He couldn't figure out the problem now. If he knew about Guijiao, he wouldn't have failed in his first invitation.
"Wait a minute, invitation?"
Han Yuan seemed to have caught something in an instant, and the frequency of tapping his fingers on the table began to increase.
Hahara also knew the story of Onikio. Before he became a rebel ninja, this guy was a close subordinate of the Fugu Oni in Watermelon Mountain.
And this guy had been performing tasks for Kirigakure Village responsibly back then, even including killing his companions who were performing tasks together.
The reason is naturally the characteristics of Kirigakure and Konoha Roots - to prevent them from falling into the hands of enemy interrogation troops and leaking intelligence.
The most embarrassing time for this guy was probably when he was surrounded by Morino Yinhiki and others.
And that time he killed all his teammates without hesitation, including the woman who gave him warmth.
From then on, this guy was considered crazy. He turned around and killed the Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost who really leaked the information.
And from that moment on, he began to believe that the world he lived in, and even himself, were a false existence.
And just when he had no faith, Obito gave him faith and told him that it could save him from the false pain.
This move gave him another goal, a goal of creating a peaceful, real world, even if the so-called real world really relied on illusions.
Anyway, the world he lives in is already fake. Making it more fake will at least allow him to forget everything about this world. What's wrong with that?
"However, now that Obito has been taken care of by me, the person who promised him has disappeared, which may have attracted his attention.
As for the Fire Country, Grass Country and Yu Country, under the control of Konoha, everything is developing in a good direction, and everything is prosperous.
I'm afraid all this also allowed Guijiao to see the so-called reality, so he hesitated.
Because I once sent an invitation to him, so he will be hesitant now that he has actually entered Konoha, right?"
Intelligence is always the most important weapon for ninjas, because the analytical ability of ninjas allows them to get the information they want from all kinds of complicated intelligence.
Hahara is a qualified ninja. In addition to the physical strength of a ninja - he is very good at killing people and setting fires, he is also good at analyzing intelligence.
Through Onikiyo's actions and combined with his past, Hahara immediately thought of many useful and possible situations!
"If that's the case, it would be interesting..."
Habara murmured, and a smile appeared on his face. A ninja like Onigao is someone you are absolutely willing to accept no matter how strong you are.
Because this guy's ability, will and belief are absolutely first-rate.
If this guy really thinks this way, then Hahara really has no reason to reject him.
"However, this is not certain yet, and many things need further confirmation."
Ha Yuan silently thought to himself, he felt that he needed to confirm some things...
...
On the only road from the Kingdom of Wind to the Kingdom of Fire, Scorpion sat on a stone and waited silently.
His eyes were staring ahead, as if waiting for something.
He has been waiting here for a while, but his target has not appeared yet, and he still needs to continue waiting.
But this kind of thing is not a big deal to him, and he can even have some peace and quiet, after all, he doesn't need to act with Orochimaru.
Scorpion really hates Orochimaru, but he can't kill Orochimaru, and he must be careful to guard against Orochimaru.
That guy had always made him feel gloomy and terrifying, and he was absolutely unwilling to be alone with such a guy.
Although he and Orochimaru are in the same team in name, in fact they always act separately and will never be together.
The mission he performed here this time was actually not the mission of the organization, but was proposed by Orochimaru.
This mission is very dangerous, but also very interesting. It is to assassinate the fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure Village!
In fact, he could have ignored it, but he was very interested in it. He had the puppet of the Third Kazekage in his hand, and he really didn't care about the Fourth Kazekage.
Even though the strength of this Fourth Generation Kazekage is really not that great, he is still a Kage after all.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Xie's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he stood up silently.
"Are you coming?"
In the distance, a phalanx of about thirty people was walking in this direction. If there were no surprises, this was the team from Sunagakure Village.
