Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 57 Red Beans

(When chatting with my colleagues today, I felt that the other party was right. There are a thousand copies of Hamlet in the eyes of 1000 people. To put it simply, it is difficult to agree. The author wrote a novel, a fan work, not a rumor. It is enough to write down the plan and plot of the book, there is no need to explain each item in detail, and compare it with the original work, or, in fact, many problems are explained in my book, so I am too lazy to reiterate.)

"Now is not the time to be happy!" The instigator of the unexpected situation in the classroom, Mitarai Anko, stood up straight in front of the huge black cloth banner, waved his right hand, and with the movement, the wide windbreaker that was opened opened, revealing the black net clothes. The beautiful body of the package said: "I am the chief examiner of the second exam, Mitarai Anko, hurry up and take the second exam now!"

"Everyone come with me!" Mitarai Anko raised her clenched right hand and shouted to the stunned candidates in the classroom, but unfortunately no one responded to her.

Maybe in normal times, a hearty and beautiful female ninja like Hongdou can easily attract the attention and favor of others, but for the many ninja students who just raised their spirits, they immediately realized that this was just a deliberate debut by one person. Said that the lack of swearing is already based on the quality of the ninja.

"No one pays attention to you." Morino Ibiki turned around from behind the black cloth, and came to Mitarai Anko's side, whispering expressionlessly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Mitarai Red Bean blushed, looking a little embarrassed, but after looking around at the many candidates sitting quietly in the classroom, he immediately asked Morino Ibiki, not sure if he was covering up his embarrassment: "Why are the candidates this time still There are so many people left!?"

"75 people, Ibiki, you actually left 25 groups of candidates!?" After counting the number of candidates carefully, Mitarai Anko said to Morino Ibiki with dissatisfaction: "This exam is a bit too easy !"

"There are many excellent candidates this time!" Ibiki Morino chuckled, thinking of Naruto Uzumaki's performance, and defended in a low voice.

"Forget it, I will leave less than half of them in the second exam." Mitarai Anko sneered when she heard this, stared at the candidates with a gloomy expression, and said coldly.

"Half left!?" Ino, who was sitting at the front, frowned when he heard Mitarai Anko's words.

"I can't wait." Mitarai Anko's body trembled slightly, as if she was excited about the upcoming fight, and said loudly to the many candidates: "You all come with me first, and I will tell you the details after arriving at the examination room !"

…………

"Hey, where is the chief examiner taking us?" Inuzuka Kiba jumped up and down with the help of a nearby building, and asked Aburome Shino while turning his head.

After Mitarai Anko led the examinees out of the residential area, she began to run quickly.

"This should be the outskirts of the village. It's a forbidden area, and people are not allowed to come in and out at will." After thinking for a while, Yunu Shino replied with a frown: "However, this area should be a training ground, and the next step will be actual combat. "

"Actual combat!" Hearing Yume Shino's guess, Inuzuka Ya couldn't help but cheered. After somersaulting in the air, he landed steadily and continued to run forward: "I can't get used to those ninjas from other villages for a long time. Now, it’s best to have a chance to teach them a lesson!”

As Inuzuka said, he looked into the distance. A boy with long hair tied into a ponytail and wearing a pure black turtleneck sweater was moving at a moderate pace, following the large army of candidates. It doesn't look conspicuous, but most of Konoha's examinees are secretly paying attention to this person. Behind him are two young ninjas, a man and a woman. .

Inuzuka tooth turned his gaze, looked back at him, and said in a low voice: "And this time, I hope to fight Shikamaru, and take a look at my recent practice results."

"It's better not to be like this, Kiba." Shino Amoyome interjected.

This remark caused Inuzuka Ya's displeasure, thinking that his companions did not agree with his strength, so he turned around and asked, "What!?"

"Do you still remember the words of Morino Ihiki and Mitarai Anko? This is the second exam, and I'm afraid there will be one or more exams to be held later!" Shino Aburo said slowly, without the slightest hint on her face. The expression was obviously not moved by Inuzuka's tone: "In this case, it is not a good choice to rashly start a war with Shikamaru, a formidable opponent. If other candidates witness the fighting process, they will definitely collect a lot of information about our strength. ——Unless you are sure to finish off Shikamaru right away!?”

"..." After a moment of silence, Inuzuka tooth nodded reluctantly, affirming Ayurome Shino's analysis.

The speed of the large army gradually slowed down, and it seemed that they were about to reach their destination. At this moment, Hyuga Hinata, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke out, pointing to the distance, and asked the two companions: "What is that!?"

Looking in the direction Hinata Hinata pointed at, you can see towering trees standing in the distance, and when you walk in, you can see the periphery of the giant forest, surrounded by tall and strong metal fences, and There are many iron chains hanging on the gate, and there are even sealing spells.

"This is the Chunin selection exam, the exam room for the second exam—No.40 No. [-] practice room!" Mitarai Anko seemed to know the doubts in the minds of many candidates. After coming to the outside of the fence, she stopped and turned around. , with a strange smile on his face, he said, "Alias ​​- 'Death Forest'."

The giant forest inside the fence seemed dead silent and gloomy. With Mitarai Anko's words and strange expression, Sakura couldn't help frowning and said, "It feels so weird here!"

"You will realize right away why this place is called 'Forest of Death'!" Mitarai Anko said with a sneer.

Mitarai Anko's words made Naruto think of Morinoi Hibiki's threat when he asked the tenth question. Maybe he had tasted the sweetness in the previous exam, so after Anko finished speaking, he curled his lips in disdain, and shook his head. With a grimace, he repeated what Hongdou had just said, pointed at the other party, and said with a high air: "I won't be afraid of your threat, how about it!"

It's a pity that Hongdou's words were not a threat, and in view of the performance of the previous candidates, Naruto's behavior just gave her a chance to intimidate the candidates.

"Shua!" The red bean who was smiling suddenly turned his face, and threw a kunai with his backhand, passing by the unsuspecting Naruto's face, and without losing momentum, he swiped behind Naruto, because he couldn't bear the temptation of food Ignoring Hongdou's speech, he opened a bag of potato chips and ate chokes.

"Snapped!"

Choji, who was eating potato chips, was startled, a sound of metal collision sounded in front of him, and then a shuriken and kunai fell at his feet, and looked to the side, Shikamaru just put down his right hand, the The shuriken that dropped the red bean Kunai was obviously thrown by him.

"That's the kid that Asma has been talking about all day long!?" After throwing Kunai, he suddenly appeared behind Naruto, holding him in his arms, and sticking out his tongue to lick Naruto's face The blood left behind, after noticing the movement behind him, thought in his heart: "The reaction is very fast, and the vigilance is very high!"

"This chief examiner is a dangerous person at all!" Even Yume Shino, who has always been calm, couldn't help frowning and whispering when she saw Mitarai Anko's performance: "And Shikamaru's reaction is really fast. I have fought with Shinobi. What is it?" no the same!?"

As the chief examiner, Hongdou said she would do it right away, which was completely beyond the expectations of many candidates. Few of them reacted in advance, and the same was true for Yunu Shino, so she had such emotion.

"A reckless child like you is often the first to squirt the blood I like and die!" Mitarai Anko licked Naruto's face frivolously with the tip of her tongue, and at the same time said dangerous words, looking a little bit Nervous, this performance made Naruto dare not move casually.

"Also!" After Mitarai Anko licked Naruto's cheeks, she pursed her lips, straightened up, and said to Choji, who was a little stupefied, "You'd better listen carefully when I speak!"

"Yes." Ding Ci was taken aback, and quickly put away the potato chips and put them in the ninja bag.

Seeing this, Mitarai Anko rolled her eyes, looked at the expressionless Shikamaru, and then ignored the two of them.

"Are you okay, Choji?" Ino, who had been standing by Shikamaru's side, asked quickly after seeing Choji approaching.

Ding Ci scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

"Before the start of the second exam, I need you to sign this consent form!" Mitarai Anko took out a stack of thick paper slips from her pocket, and said to the candidates, seeing the puzzled faces of the candidates, she explained with a smile : "Because some people may die in this exam, so I must ask for your consent first, otherwise I will be responsible!"

Ignoring the candidates whose faces changed slightly, Mitarai Anko continued: "After you sign your names, hand them over to the examiners sitting in the wooden room behind in groups! If you are afraid of death and want to abstain, don't write Get your name on!"

"Let me tell you the rules of the second exam!" Hongdou raised her finger and said to the candidates, "You must fight for survival in this limited area."

"Use personal weapons, ninjutsu, and various methods to fight." Mitarai Anzuki took out two exquisite scrolls from the ninja tool bag at the back of his waist, and said, "Use this to snatch the scrolls and start a battle for scrolls! "

"You must snatch the 'Scroll of Heaven' and the 'Scroll of Earth'." Mitarai Anko showed the two scrolls to the candidates respectively. One was white with the word 'Scroll' written in the middle, and the other was It is black, with the word 'Earth' written in the middle: "25 teams, twelve of them will receive the Scroll of Heaven, and the other team will receive the Scroll of Earth. The qualification for this test is that the three members of the team should carry a scroll together. For the heaven and earth scroll, report to the most central tower of this training ground!"

"Only a maximum of twelve teams can pass this exam. Others will definitely be eliminated. And from the start of the exam to the end of the report, I will only give you 120 hours, which is five days." Mitarai Red Bean He continued: "And from the beginning of the exam, no one is allowed to abstain! That is to say, within the five days, you must all stay in this forest!"

"In addition, if someone in the team dies or is unable to continue fighting, the team will be eliminated!" Mitarai Anko said with a smile: "And before reaching the central tower, the contents of the scroll are absolutely not allowed to peek! "
