Chapter 705 Bait

9:15.

In the light blue sky, the sun has risen to a certain height, making the air in Konoha Village tinged with sultry heat.

On a dark path leading to the secret door of the leaves, the trees are so dense that even the sunlight cannot be reflected, there is the sound of light footsteps on the road.

The person who appeared on the path was wrapped in a black windbreaker, with his head bowed, and the hood attached to the collar covered most of his face with shadows.

In front is a low wooden door, which is different from Konoha's main door. This low wooden door can only allow two people to pass through in parallel.

As he was about to approach the wooden door, the figure raised his head slightly.

In front of the wooden door, a figure stood.

A few figures of Konoha ninjas fell down at his feet. Judging from the fact that they were still breathing and that there were no obvious signs of fighting, they were probably knocked down by some kind of spell under careless circumstances.

"Is it Sasuke Uchiha?"

The figure guarding in front of the wooden door was also in pitch black, with a mask covering his face, speaking in a deliberately fabricated deep voice.

Obviously, he didn't want others to know his identity.

Nodding his head, Sasuke revealed a handsome fair face, and a pair of eyes that had long been unstoppable and began to turn bright red.

"It's me. Are you the one who connects with me?"

Sasuke asked.

The man did not answer, but took out a folded map from his pocket and handed it to Sasuke.

"This is the distribution map of Konoha's facilities today. The village has changed a lot from when you left."

Sasuke took the folded distribution map with a thoughtful face.

"Then, I will take my leave."

The man made seals with both hands, and disappeared in front of Sasuke in a puff of smoke.

Sasuke didn't care about that person's departure, he just gently pushed open the wooden door, stepped into the dark tunnel without saying a word, and merged with the darkness.

9:30.

Candidates who participated in the Joint Chunin Examination arrived at classroom 307 of the teaching building of Konoha Ninja School half an hour ago, and met there.

A total of more than two hundred candidates came to this large classroom without any mistakes. The empty space, even if there are more than two hundred people, will not appear crowded.

On the playground outside the window, there was no one.

Although it is not a holiday time, considering the particularity of the Chunin exam, the ninja school has been closed one day earlier to make room for the candidates who take the exam.

The official exam time is at 10:00 in the morning, lasts for one and a half hours, and ends at 11:30.

Judging from the layout of the classroom, it is obvious that this is the same written test as in the past.

To test the ninja's academic ability and intelligence gathering ability.

Located in a relatively quiet corner of the classroom, Hinoko, who followed Naruto to take the Chunin exam, couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief, as if she really couldn't get a little bit motivated for such an exam.

This is also a matter of course. Although she is several years younger than Naruto, she is a genuine Chunin in terms of position level. She is expected to become a Junin in the village before she turns 20. In addition, she is a candidate for Anbu. From the perspective of prospects, it can be said that the future is boundless.

As a result, if she had to accompany someone to take this childish exam, if it wasn't for the order of her superiors, she should be at home at this time, enjoying the rich morning tea carelessly.

Whether it is her own academic ability or intelligence gathering ability, it is a very simple matter for her, and she can complete it alone without relying on her teammates.

However

Hinoko glanced at the 'senior' Naruto, who looked very calm, but was probably in a panic in his heart, and couldn't help but see a trace of helplessness in his eyes.

"Hey, Naruto-senpai, it's just a written test. You don't need to be so nervous. You can pass a test of this level if you work hard, right?"

She couldn't understand why someone would fail such an easy exam.

Isn't it possible for a ninja to pass at once?

"Yes, yes, well, as long as I show one percent of my skills, I can easily pass this kind of exam. No problem at all!"

Naruto patted his cheek hard to encourage himself to fight, as if he was afraid of being looked down upon by a junior like Hinoko, so he spoke very hard, sounding like he was gnashing his teeth again.

"Then, Naruto-senpai, prepare well. Sai-senpai and I can't help you much in this exam. There are only two answers that can be given to you. The rest of the answers, Naruto-senpai, you have to complete by yourself."

As special examinees, she and Sai already knew the questions and answers of the first exam in advance.

During the exam, the two of them will pass the correct answer to Naruto in a way that conforms to the ninja's ability, and then they can rest all the time to end this Zhongnin exam.

Because they won't take the second and third exams at all.

Naruto is also the same.

Otherwise, with their strength, it would be unfair to the rest of the candidates to take the next exam.

Especially Naruto, it will seriously disrupt the balance of power among the Genin.

"I see, even if I am alone, I will pass the exam."

Whether this sentence comes from his heart or not, Naruto still doesn't want to admit defeat in front of his juniors.

It is extremely embarrassing to say something like 'I am not good at the written test or anything'.

He only hopes that the written test questions this time must not be too difficult.

"Now you all sit in your own seats. I am Nara Shikamaru, the chief examiner of the first exam. You have to finish it within one minute."

The one who said those words was Shikamaru who had arrived in the classroom at some time.

He said this to all the candidates in the classroom.

Beside him, Temari and other examiners were also scanning the audience with majestic eyes.

The originally noisy classroom immediately fell silent.

After looking at each other in blank dismay, the candidates walked to the seats with their own codes according to the admission ticket number they had already obtained.

"Well, good luck to you, Naruto."

Sai smiled slightly, left the line first, and walked to a seat not far away.

Immediately, his eyes lingered on the examiner Shikamaru inadvertently for a moment, the smile on his face disappeared slowly, and his inorganic eyes were full of intrigue.

"I'll go there first too, Naruto-senpai, please work hard."

Hinoko patted Naruto on the back, walked quickly to her seat and sat down.

"What, everyone is underestimating me, it's just a mere written test, I surprised you this time!"

Naruto muttered unhappily, even after sitting down in the seat, his face still had a look of reluctance.

After all the candidates sat down, the examiner who followed Shikamaru began to distribute test papers, followed by basic answering props such as automatic pencils and erasers.

The test paper has only one side, with the back facing up and the front facing down, so it is impossible to see clearly what the questions on the test paper are.

"Okay, you guys don't open the test papers, and it's time to explain the rules. The rules of this test are..."

According to the exam rules that have been drawn up, Shikamaru read them clearly and clearly, so that all candidates can understand the specific form of the rules.

It took Shikamaru two minutes to read the rules aloud.

There are more rules in this exam than usual, and there are some strange things just from the literal meaning.

But experienced candidates know that these strange-sounding rules are deliberately made by the examiners, and have a deeper interpretation method that is different from the superficial rules.

As long as it can be interpreted smoothly, the difficulty of the exam will be reduced by at least half.

Therefore, when Shikamaru read the rules aloud, none of the candidates made a sound, but they all listened very carefully, trying to keep every rule in their hearts.

After reading the rules aloud, Shikamaru quickly scanned the faces of the candidates, and asked calmly: "The rules of this exam are like this. If you have any objections, you can raise them now."

Seeing that no candidates raised their hands to speak, Shikamaru nodded in satisfaction or dissatisfaction, but took out a timing alarm clock, placed it on the most conspicuous edge of the podium, and pressed the switch.

"Since there is no objection, from now on, there are still fifteen minutes before the official exam. You should keep these rules in mind."

As he spoke, Shikamaru sat down, beside Temari and a few other examiners, the rest of the examiners were scattered in the rest of the classroom, staring at each examinee with sharp eyes, making the examinee who was stared at feel restless for a while.

Shuttle through the crowd like a ghost.

Although Sasuke was wearing a dark windbreaker in broad daylight, which made Sasuke look very weird at this time, but the passers-by seemed to be unable to see this, and did not pay attention to him.

Sasuke also ignored these unresponsive passers-by, his goal was very clear.

After walking a distance of hundreds of meters, Sasuke suddenly looked up at an apartment building. Without hesitation, he jumped to the water tower on the top of the apartment building that was 20 to 30 meters high with the help of the platform.

There was no one here, Sasuke lifted the hood on his head, untied the straps of the windbreaker, let the windbreaker peel off from his body, and flew to the ground with the wind.

The whole person seemed to be liberated, Sasuke took a deep breath of the air here.

It was no different from the outside air, but the memory and feeling engraved in his bones made Sasuke's eyes a little dazed for a while.

The bustling crowd, the chasing and playing among the children, all the scenes are so familiar, and he misses them immensely.

He used to live in this place.

Precious memories of his childhood and student days remain here.

However, looking at the bright smiles on the faces of everyone here, Sasuke couldn't feel the slightest kindness, but was just irritated.

An inexplicable irritability welled up in my heart.

There is an urge to completely tear the smiles on the faces of the people here.

Only fantasizing in this way seems to be able to suppress the irritability that keeps pouring into my heart.

After a long time, he calmed down the restlessness in his heart, regained his composure in his bright red eyes, and looked at the crowd below who didn't know they were within the attack range, with a hint of madness that he didn't even notice at the corner of his mouth.

"The final revenge...start now."

His finger was bitten, blood poured out.

With only afterimages left on both hands, Sasuke completed the seal in an instant.

Finally, he slammed his right hand down on the water tower.

"Spiritualism!"

Among the thick dust sprayed suddenly from the top of the apartment building, there was a low and depressing roar of a giant beast, making the air in this area suddenly heavy.

Three huge figures vaguely emerged as black silhouettes in the smoke, and the huge white smoke could not cover their entire bodies, so that part of their bodies was exposed, even if it was only a corner, it was enough to shock people.

Feeling the sharply reduced Chakra in his body, Sasuke couldn't help feeling that the 'food intake' of these three psychic beasts was astonishing. Summoning them out directly consumed nearly one-third of his Chakra.

"Unfortunately, the fattest one has too much chakra...Forget it, this will do. Let's act, cats!"

Whoosh!

The three giant beasts obeyed the order, and rushed out of the smoke area quickly like three ferocious black lightning bolts, blowing away the smoke wrapped around their bodies with the gust of wind blowing while running.

Two of them were grouped together, and one of them was traveling alone, flying rapidly in two different directions. In a blink of an eye, their huge figures disappeared from the top of the apartment building, and the road could only be blurred by the black giant shadow of the three giant beasts running like a gust of wind.

"The bait is out, next..."

Sasuke recovered from the exhaustion of Chakra in an instant. Just as he was about to lift his feet, the air suddenly fluctuated. A dozen figures flashed towards him and launched a surrounding attack on him.

On the road, some of the pedestrians, with their hands in seals, unlocked the transformation technique on their bodies, turned into a ninja, rushed to the top of the apartment building, and joined the formation surrounding Sasuke.

Seeing this scene, Sasuke's eyes were calm, as if the premeditated scene in front of him was not worth his fuss.

"Finally can't help it... Guys who are in the way."

tick tock. tick.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and fifteen minutes passed quickly.

At 10 o'clock sharp, the alarm clock on the podium rang harshly, and soon the sound disappeared from the classroom, indicating that the exam had officially started.

The time is one and a half hours, whether it is short or long, especially when there are many rules, all the candidates put forth 100% energy, opened the test paper facing down, and quickly browsed all the questions in the test paper.

Among these people, Naruto is no exception.

It is not the first time for him to take the Chunin Exam. Even if he fails to pass, he still has some understanding of the rules of the Chunin Exam.

For example, he also fully understands the hidden rules in the exam.

After all, the first exam of the Chunin exam is basically the same every year, except for the changes in the questions and rules, but the essence is still the same.

Having said that, Naruto's cheeks were soaked in cold sweat immediately after browsing through all the topics.

Sure enough, the tasks are all types that ordinary ninjas can never complete alone. After all, ninjas with super academic ability like Sakura are always a minority. This time the exam is still based on intelligence gathering ability, supplemented by one's own academic ability.

After understanding this, Naruto began to think about how to get the correct answer in a ninja way.

Although he has mastered a lot of ninjutsu, but thinking about it carefully, it seems that there is no ninjutsu that is suitable for cheating.

Is it necessary to use the latest improved harem technique to let the blood flow here directly, killing the candidates and the examiners together?

Naruto couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this scene. Just thinking about that scene, he felt that the painting style was abnormal immediately.

Afterwards, Tsunade will definitely be punched flying.

Just when Naruto was holding the pen, he didn't know what to do.

A low vibration sound was transmitted suddenly, causing the large classroom to vibrate visibly, and some stone dust fell from the ceiling.

"What, what's going on!?"

"Is there an earthquake?"

The originally extremely quiet large classroom could not maintain the original atmosphere immediately. Not only the candidates, but even the invigilating examiners looked out of the window with astonishment on their faces.

The moment they turned their heads, a thunderous explosion swept over them, shocking them and widening their eyes.

A huge shadow suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the building opposite the teaching building.

Boom!

The entire building collapsed and shattered, and a hurricane of dust and stones blew in immediately, smashing the glass of the classroom windows of the teaching building.

"Whoah!"

Before he could figure out the situation, the examinee who was accidentally hit by a stone immediately screamed in pain.

And there were screams one after another, and more than one person was attacked by flying stones.

"What are you doing!"

"What is that huge monster, a cat? How can there be such a big cat? Fake?"

"Damn, what's going on with Konoha's guy, is this how he usually maintains law and order?"

"It's unreasonable for mistakes to occur at this time!"

For a moment, the entire large classroom fell into uneasy and dangerous screams, and the voices of abuse and anger resounded throughout the classroom.

Hokage Building, Conference Room 304.

Jonin representatives from the four villages of Konoha, Sand Yin, Yan Yin, and Yun Yin gathered together. In this meeting room, they discussed and reached an alliance with the mysterious organization that captured the tailed beast.

Among the four villages that are about to form an alliance, only Konoha has not suffered any loss of tail beasts, while the other three villages, Shayin, Yanyin, and Yunyin have all lost tail beasts.

Especially Yanyin suffered the most serious losses. All four-tailed and five-tailed beasts in the village were stolen.

In addition, the Land of Earth, where Yan Yin is located, is currently in a military confrontation with the Land of Demons, and the power of the Tailed Beast is urgently needed to restore the military disadvantage.

For this reason, Yan Yin is the most active party for this alliance.

He came as a representative, and is also the son of the third Tsuchikage Onogi, Iwagakushi Kamienin Loesto.

Sha Yin's representative is Jonin Maki, and Yun Yin's representative is Raikage's trusted Jonin Samui.

Including Konoha's jounin squad leader, Nara Shikahisa, are the four jounin representatives of the four villages.

Each of them carried an assistant behind them, and sat down at the conference table in Room 304 with serious expressions.

"In the end, Kirigakure still refused, right?"

It was the loess of Yanyin who spoke.

He didn't see Jominin of Kirigakure Village in the meeting room. Considering that it is impossible to be late for this kind of meeting, Mizukage of Kirigakure did not intend to participate in this meeting and has his own plan.

"At this time, the country is still closed, which is really rare. I thought that the village had changed with the new Mizukage, but it turned out to be the same, and I don't like to communicate with the outside world."

Samui sighed.

The more members of the alliance, the better.

The enemies who captured the walking-tailed beasts were not simple ninjas. Some elites were drawn from various villages to form a special operations team, so that the action efficiency would naturally be faster.

"Probably because the tail beasts in my village haven't had any problems yet, and because of the closed policy, it is difficult for the outside world to obtain their information. In terms of confidentiality, it is difficult for that organization to take away their tail beasts."

Lu Jiu said helplessly.

He can somewhat understand the attitude of Wuyin Village, and he also knows that there is little hope of winning them over, so when he learned that Wuyin did not join the alliance, he was disappointed, but this disappointment dissipated quickly.

"I hope so. After all, if their Tailed Beast is also stolen, then there will be a headache. After all, their Jinchuriki is Mizukage, one of the Five Kages, even though he is now the former Mizukage."

Markey folded his hands on his chest and expressed his views.

Huangtu let out a cold snort. In the previous Ninja World War, this former Mizukage had tormented Iwagakure very much.

In the end, I just bowed and resigned as an apology. Such a perfunctory attitude naturally made Yanyin very angry.

Now hearing about that 'former Shui Ying', Huang Tu's expression is as bad as it needs to be.

Everyone couldn't help but rejoice seeing this place. Fortunately, Kirigakure's ninja didn't come, otherwise, maybe this conference room would immediately become a battlefield between Iwagakure and Kirigakure.

In that case, there will definitely be no way to successfully hold the alliance meeting.

"So, regarding the meeting, I think it's time to start"

Lu Jiu's voice stopped at a sudden explosion.

That was the explosion sound of some kind of heavy object falling to the ground, just like a meteorite exploding on the ground.

The entire Hokage building was wailing, and the people sitting on the chairs shook their bodies, and looked out the window in astonishment.

A storm mixed with dust and gravel struck, immediately knocking down the wall and scattering glass shards all over the place.

However, the storm has not stopped, and continues to attack everyone in the meeting room.

"Earth DungeonEarth Flow Wall!"

Without any hesitation, Huang Tu, who was closest to the window, reacted as quickly as possible, slapped the ground with both hands, and a thick stone wall rose from the ground, protecting himself and everyone behind the earth wall, blocking the sudden storm and preventing everyone from being injured.

"How is this going?"

Seeing this scene, Samuy and Maji were even more astonished.

Who on earth can't figure it out, dare to make such a big commotion in Konoha Village, and directly attack such an important place as the Hokage Building.

"cat"

Lu Jiu squinted his eyes, moved his ears, glanced out the window, stood up from the seat, put down the document in his hand, and said this word.

"cat?"

Samui and the others looked stunned.

The storm gradually subsided, and outside the window, the open space of the Hokage Building was filled with dust, and the two giant beasts were surrounded by a terrifying aura.
