Sakura immediately became nervous, holding a kunai in one hand and assuming a defensive posture.
"Are you really Menma!?"
After all, it’s not time to just graduate. After nearly half a year of hard work, even Sakura has grown up mentally to a certain extent. This is the venue for the Chunin Examination. It’s not clear whether the person coming here is an enemy or a companion.
.
During this period of time, although Kakashi saw Sakura's chakra control ability and intended to guide Sakura to develop towards genjutsu or medical ninja, firstly, there was not enough time, and secondly, Kakashi was not interested in either of these areas.
The professional users at most taught Sakura some basic aspects.
Sakura is still in the initial stage of learning. She can't tell whether the Menma in front of her is the real person. Now Sakura has completely tensed her nerves.
"Huh? Of course I'm Menma, Sakura, do you still remember the extra income I gave you?"
Menma also reacted after being stunned for a moment, and blurted out the information that only a few people in their team knew.
When I heard Menma's words.
Sakura really relaxed this time, and said with an expression as if she was about to cry: "Menma, it's really you, Naruto and Sasuke, they all..."
"Well, it's okay, Sakura. Naruto and Sasuke just passed out. They should wake up after a while. You don't have to worry. Please tell me what happened first. What kind of enemy did you encounter?
Yet?"
Menma strode to Naruto and Sasuke's side. After pretending to check, he looked at Sakura with a frown and asked.
"Well, here's the thing, Menma..."
After all, Menma still has a certain degree of prestige among the four members of Team 7. This is a result of Menma's decisiveness and strength during the execution of many missions in the past half year or so, let alone Sakura.
Well, even Nazuo and the two of them subconsciously obeyed Menma's instructions many times.
In today's situation.
Menma's arrival also relieved Sakura's inner panic and worry to a great extent. Sakura, who gradually calmed down, also told Menma about the encounter between the three of them and Orochimaru. Of course, because of what happened later
There is a temporary separation.
Some content is missing in the middle.
Sakura just said that when he found Naruto and Sasuke again, the two of them had already fallen into a coma, and there was such a strange thing on Sasuke's neck.
"Is that so? This symbol should be a special sealing technique. I can't tell what it is specifically. I can only wait until I pass this test and let Mr. Kakashi take a look.
Already."
Menma listened and pretended to think about it for a while, then nodded and said.
"Yeah, yeah."
Sakura, who was at a loss just now and had always been frightened, felt completely relieved after Menma arrived. As long as Menma was by her side, there was no need to worry about any problems happening again. Naturally, it was whatever Menma said.
.
"You stay here and guard the two of them. I'll go set some traps around and find some food. It doesn't matter. Everything will be fine, whether it's Naruto and Sasuke or the exam."
Menma looked at Haruno Sakura and said softly.
"Yeah, I understand, Menma."
Sakura nodded in response.
Following from that.
Menma moved away from where he was.
Sakura, on the other hand, returned to the outside of the tree hole to guard Naru and Zuo who were still in a coma.
Not to mention Menma and others who were temporarily stopped in the area on one side of the Death Forest.
The 21 teams of ninjas from different ninja villages who entered the largest and most special training ground in Konoha Hidden Village also started the most brutal fighting on the first day.
After all, the content of this second round of assessment requires that each team must collect the scrolls of heaven and earth before they can pass.
Although there is an extra team like Menma acting alone.
But in such a huge forest of death, the number of heaven and earth scrolls is only 11 each. Even if everything is such a coincidence, only 11 teams can pass the second round of assessment. In fact, in the end, they can
The number of teams that pass the assessment must be less than this number.
In the original book, there were 26 teams that entered the second round of assessment, but in the end only six teams were able to successfully complete the assessment.
The pass rate is not even a quarter.
This life is obviously no exception.
The noise of the outside world and the fighting between various ninjas.
Menma didn't take it to heart at all. For him, his true intention of participating in the Chuunin Examination had been realized. He only needed to follow the established 'script' for the rest of the matter.
Just as Menma himself expected.
After being in a coma for several hours, Naruto woke up before Sasuke. The moment he opened his eyes, after the initial daze, Naruto immediately jumped up like a carp.
A straight fighting stance.
And just one second later.
"You're awake, Naruto."
When he heard a clear voice and saw Menma's familiar figure, Naruto's tense body finally relaxed.
"It's Menma, when did you find us, eh? And where is Sakura?"
Naruto exhaled a breath, looked at Menma with a smile and asked.
"Sakura is preparing food outside, but you, how are you feeling now?"
Menma gestured to Sakura who was setting up a pot and lighting a fire outside, and said with a slight smile.
"Me? It's just that the back of my head hurts a little bit, but there's nothing else, eh? By the way, was that eerie and terrifying Kusanagi repelled by you? Menma."
Hear Menma's words.
It was as if Naruto could feel the pain now, and he touched the back of his head where he had been hit hard before, and he looked like he was grinning a bit.
Then, as if he remembered something, he looked directly at Menma with wide eyes and said.
"No, I didn't see the grass ninja who defeated you two. When I found you, you two were already in a coma. Sakura told me about the grass ninja, but you
The scroll has not been taken away."
Menma shook his head and said.
"Is that so? Then what is the intention of this grass ninja? In the end, he actually let me and Sasuke go? I don't understand."
Naruto also frowned, showing a look of confusion.
"Forget it, there's no point in thinking about it now. You can just tell Kakashi-sensei later. The most important thing now is that you two recover first and then pass the second round of assessment."
