Naruto: The Brightest Star

Chapter 107 The 2st Exam

Ten minutes later, Mitarashi Anko began to prepare for the second exam.

“This place is called the Forest of Death, and you can experience it right away.”

Mitarashi Anko said with a chuckle.

"Humph~"

Uzumaki Naruto pinched his throat, put his hands on his hips, and imitated Mitarashi Anko's words in a sarcastic tone.

“This place is called the Forest of Death, and you can experience it right away.”

"No matter how you scare me, I'll be fine! I'm not afraid at all!"

Uzumaki Naruto said very confidently.

"Really? You look so energetic."

Mitarashi Anko smiled, and the next second, she took out a kunai and threw it at Uzumaki Naruto.

The kunai cut Uzumaki Naruto's face in an instant.

With a flash, Mitarashi Anko appeared behind Uzumaki Naruto.

"Children like you are usually the first to die. Spraying my favorite bright red blood."

Mitarashi Anko smiled softly, then raised her hand and held up Uzumaki Naruto's face, wiping the blood on Uzumaki Naruto's face with her fingers.

The next second, Mitarashi Anko vigilantly grasped the kunai and blocked backwards.

A long red tongue rolled up the kunai that Mitarashi Anko had just thrown out and handed it to Mitarashi Anko.

"I'll give you the kunai again."

The woman smiled and spoke to Mitarashi Anko.

"Oh, thank you for taking the trouble."

Although both of them kept smiling, anyone with a discerning eye could sense the hostility between them.

These two people...

Karin frowned slightly and gradually became alert.

"Well, I'll send this to you before the second exam starts."

Mitarashi Anko said as she took out a stack of consent forms from her arms.

"This is the consent form. Anyone who wants to take the test must sign here first."

"why?"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Mitarashi Anko in confusion.

"Because someone might die afterwards, I have to get prior consent for this, otherwise it will become my responsibility."

Mitarashi Anko said this in a nonchalant manner.

The people around him looked serious.

"Then let's start with the second test. In short, you will be challenged to survive in the wild to the extreme."

Mitarashi Anko said and asked everyone to pass on the consent form.

"First, let's explain the terrain of this training ground in order."

Mitarashi Anko showed the map in her hand.

"This is the 44th training ground. It is a circle surrounded by 44 locked entrances. There are rivers and forests, and a tower in the middle. It is about ten kilometers from the tower to the gate. In this limited area, a certain wilderness survival project will be carried out. The content is..."

Mitarashi Anko said as she put the map away and took out two scrolls.

"It's a battle for the scroll where anything can happen."

"A battle for the scroll?"

Uzumaki Naruto approached with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"Yes, the Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth. It's a battle over these two scrolls."

"Of the 26 teams that passed the first exam, 13 teams took the Book of Heaven, and the other 13 teams took the Book of Earth. I gave each team a scroll. In simple terms, they competed with each other."

Mitarashi Red Bean explained it to everyone simply.

"What are the qualifications?"

Uchiha Sasuke looked at Mitarashi Anko and asked.

"Within 120 hours, that is, within five days, the three of you must take the two scrolls of heaven and earth and go to the central tower together. Anyone who fails to take the two scrolls to the central tower within the stipulated time will be eliminated. However, it is worth noting that the scrolls must not be opened during the process."

Mitarashi Anko stated the conditions.

"So this is the reason she mentioned before about eliminating half of the team."

He said it clearly, not too surprised by this.

"Five days! What about food?"

Akimichi Choji, who is a foodie, instantly lost his composure.

"Of course we are self-sufficient. The wild is a natural treasure trove. We can hunt for whatever we want to eat."

Mitarashi Anko said casually.

"But there are also man-eating beasts, poisonous insects and poisonous plants everywhere."

Pharmacist Kabuto said softly.

"Isn't this just right? It lets you know in advance what you can eat and what you can't eat. You know, now you have a Jonin leading the team. When you become a Chunin, you will start to be independent and lead the team. A lot of the time you are in the wild, and you don't always have enough dry food with you. How to fill your stomach depends on you."

Mitarashi Anko seemed to have gotten used to this.

"Excuse me, is it okay if I want to give up halfway?"

Nara Shikamaru raised his hand and asked.

"According to the regulations, this is not allowed. Please spend the five days in the forest."

Mitarashi Anko said this very decisively.

"Is that so? Ah~ This is so troublesome."

Nara Shikamaru scratched his hair in annoyance.

"Alright! Sign the consent form now. In ten minutes, go to the cabin over there with the three consent forms to exchange scrolls. Then decide which entrance you want to go to, and then everyone will set off."

Mitarashi Anko urged vaguely.

"One last piece of advice for you all. Don't die."

Bai and his companions did not hesitate for too long and quickly wrote down their names.

When the exchange officially began, Bai and the other two walked straight over and entered the small covered house. They handed the three letters of consent to the other party in exchange for the Scroll of Heaven and a person responsible for leading the way.

Karin took the scroll and put it in her bag.

Mitarashi Anko looked at the time on her watch, then spoke: "Everyone, take your scrolls and follow your leaders to the corresponding entrances. The second exam will begin in half an hour."

"Phew~ It's about to start again, so exciting!"

Karin spoke in a loud voice, attracting the attention of people around her.

"Oops~"

Karin suddenly fell to the ground, and the Scroll of Heaven rolled out of Karin's waist bag.

In an instant, several eyes fell on Karin.

"Why are you so careless?"

Shirayo Kimimaro first helped Karin up, then picked up the Scroll of Heaven and put it into Karin's waist bag.

“It’s a bit exaggerated.”

Shiro approached Karin and whispered.

"It doesn't matter. We're all fishing anyway. Let's see which impatient fish is running towards us."

Karin didn't really care about this.

"Don't worry, I've already memorized those teams that were excited when they saw our scrolls. Now it's up to you, Karin."

Kimimaro whispered.

"give it to me."

Karin smiled confidently, and then the three of them continued to follow the person in charge to Gate 24.

As the door was pushed open, the three of them quickly rushed towards the center.

An hour later, Karin and the other two sat together to rest.

"Here he comes."

Karin secretly pointed in a direction.

Kimimaro nodded slightly, left a shadow clone and left secretly.

On the other side, a small team had come to the darkness and looked at Karin and the other two who were sitting there to rest.

Found it, the Scroll of Heaven.

The leader made a hand gesture, ready to rush forward with his teammates to grab the scroll. However, after the gesture was made, no one came forward.

"How could... this happen?"

The leader just turned around and asked the reason, then he saw a bone blade against his neck, and his teammate had fainted.

"Hand over the scroll."

Kimimaro looked at the ninja calmly.

The one who followed wanted to resist, but seeing the three people surrounding him, he knew he had no way to escape, so he could only take out his scroll obediently.

"The Book of Earth is in hand!"

Karin happily put the Book of Earth into her waist bag.

"Okay, let's go to the tower in the middle."

Karin said happily, and suddenly she sensed something and looked in one direction with a serious face.

"No way."

Karin formed seals with her hands and closed her eyes.

Kagura's heart's eyes, open!

In an instant, Karin sensed the movement of chakra within a radius of ten kilometers.

There's no mistake, the ninja whose chakra feels like a snake is on Naruto's side!

Karin opened her eyes, ignored the three people who were knocked unconscious, looked at Haku and Kimimaro and said, "The ninja that Izumi Jonin said we should be alert to is with Naruto. Should we go?"

Bai thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Location."

Upon hearing this, Karin laughed and began to lead the way.

The three of them advanced quickly in the Chinese character "众" (group) formation.

Faintly, they heard some sounds of fighting.

Hmm? Naruto's chakra has changed! Please don't be in any trouble, Naruto.

Karin couldn't help but speed up.

When the three of them arrived, the battle was already coming to an end. Uzumaki Naruto was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive, while Uchiha Sasuke had been bitten on the neck by the opponent.

Damn it, the person the teacher likes was hurt.

Kimimaro raised his hand and pointed it at the woman with long black hair who had her back to him.

Although I promised the teacher that I would never use this trick under normal circumstances, now is the time to use it.

"Together kill the ashes."

A gray bone shot out from Kimimaro's palm, targeting the "woman" with long black hair.

In an instant, the "woman" felt a chill on her back, as if something was threatening her life.

Almost instinctively, the "woman" directly summoned the psychic beast.

A giant snake stood in front of the "woman", and the bone pierced into the snake's body.

The next second, the giant snake instantly turned into ashes.

"Cough cough!"

Is it blocked?

Kimimaro coughed.

This ability was acquired a few years ago after his teacher injected drugs into his body, but his body could not bear it. If he used it too much, all the bones in his body would be assimilated by that thing, and he would eventually turn into a pool of ashes.

but...

Kimimaro raised his hand and took out a reagent tube filled with white liquid from the waist bag at his side, then he took open the reading head, poured the contents into his mouth and drank it.

resurrection!
