"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
bang bang bang!
A row of Shadow Clones appeared behind Naruto.
Either squatting, or standing, or putting their hands in their pockets, with eternal mangekyō eyes and Byakugan eyes, they are looking indifferently at the lively Konoha below.
"Tonight's task is to occupy the Anbu hideout and the forest behind it, the root ninjas and Anbu ninjas in the whole place, you can replace them after they are found."
Naruto was still sitting, and said without looking back at his clones.
"Try not to be detected by the action."
"Also, the action time is tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning. Taking advantage of Orochimaru's exposure, the Anbu and the other Jōnin's attention has been drawn, so we will fight quickly."
The reason why Naruto set the time during the day instead of night is because the village is more lively during the day, and those ninjas or spies who sneak in from other ninja villages will go to inquire about the news separately, so that those ninjas who are responsible for these tasks will not be able to stare at them.
Furthermore, for the exam in the forest of death, the examinees will also rest at night, so it will not be as fierce as during the day, causing various accidents.
During the day, the examiners and instructors of the Chūnin exam will focus on the exam room in order to take care of the candidates as much as possible.
Even the Third Hokage will take time to inquire about the exam situation.
However, at night, most of the ninjas are resting, and their attention is liberated. Once they find any situation, they will gather very quickly.
Therefore, being busy during the day, they would not have thought that the forest far behind the Hokage Rock, Danzo's root base, would be invaded, not even by Danzo himself.
In this way, the success rate of Naruto will be higher.
Even if there was a 1% chance that the movement was too loud and he was discovered, Naruto could safely evacuate without being suspected of him being the perpetrator.
What's more, Naruto has also developed a ninjutsu, which can ensure the safety of this operation.
"Main mission, capture Danzo alive."
"Start the first step of our plan."
"Finally, use Transfiguration to become a Shinigami and wear a hollow mask."
"From now on we will call ourselves [Shinigami][Tl/:Alternate name: Soul Reaper]."
After Naruto finished speaking, the Shadow Clones in the back transformed together, referring to Ichigo in Shinigami, wearing a black death suit, with a mask after Hollow on his face.
He and Zabuza set up an organization called [Shinigami], headed by Zabuza and focusing on collecting intelligence.
And his Shadow Clone from his system can be upgraded into ten physical clones, mainly performing operational tasks, such as going to Kirigakure to find the Three Tails hidden at the bottom of the lake.
These also need to be done in secret, so Naruto called them [Virtual]for convenience.
"That's all, disband!"
…
The Forest of Death.
"Why hasn't Naruto come back yet? Nothing will happen to him, right?"
Sakura said worriedly.
She was chased away by Sasuke before, looking for Naruto, but she didn't know where Naruto was at all, so she ran out in any direction like a headless chicken, hoping to meet him.
As a result, she did not see Naruto, but was found by Sasuke who was chasing after her.
After asking, she found out that Naruto had joined Sasuke, and faced that terrible enemy alone.
Now almost half an hour has passed, and Naruto has not returned yet, and she is full of doubts.
Although Naruto is very powerful, that dangerous Kusanagi ninja is even more powerful.
"Don't worry, Naruto is faster than me, if he wants to escape, he will definitely be able to escape."
Although Sasuke said words of comfort to Sakura, in fact, his frown also represented his inner uneasiness.
At the same time, he once again felt that his strength was not enough.
It's a pity, Sasuke's upgrade speed has surpassed most ninjas, except for Naruto, Sasuke is definitely the strongest among Konoha's greenhorn.
But unfortunately, the opponents he met after graduation were all outrageously strong or cheating existences.
For example, Zabuza, Haku, then there is Orochimaru who he just met, and the One Tail Jinchūriki Gaara, who he has not fought yet, none of them are easy.
This kind of enemy, if other ninjas encounter it, it is estimated that they would have been cold for a long time.
It was wrong for Sasuke to compare himself with them.
Not to mention the cheating Naruto, Orochimaru who saw Naruto's Kurama Mode even had to avoid him.
It can only be said that Sasuke was harmed by Itachi's Tsukuyomi a lot.
Swiish!
"Yo, what are you talking about?"
With a swish, Naruto suddenly appeared next to Sasuke, making Sasuke's face turn pale again in fright.
"I said, can you show up normally? I've had enough scares today."
Sasuke said tiredly.
"Naruto! I'm glad you're okay!"
Sakura was extremely happy to see Naruto return safely.
This is the thickest thigh in the team! So Sakura must hug it!
Whether she can leave this forest and become a Chūnin depends on Naruto.
Of course, this does not mean that she fell in love with Naruto, Sakura is still so attached to Sasuke.
"Of course I'm good, let's go."
Naruto threw what was in his hand to Sasuke.
"what?"
Sasuke caught it and saw it was a scroll, but why is it sticky?
"The [Book of the Earth] left behind by the guy I beat away. Looking at it this way, we seem to have found all the scrolls, and we can go directly to the high tower in the center."
Naruto rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Snapped.
The scroll in Sasuke's hand fell to the ground upon hearing it.
"You mean…this scroll is from that Kusanagi ninja?" Sasuke asked with an ugly face.
"yes."
"W-where did he take it out?" Sakura suddenly felt a little nauseous.
"From his mouth." Naruto asked strangely.
"So, you didn't even wash it and you threw it to me!!"
As soon as Sasuke thought of that bastard ninja swallowing the scroll, then spitting it out, and then into his own hand, he wanted to vomit.
"Isn't that why I'm carrying it with a vine? Do you think I will pick it up by myself?"
"You nasty bastard!"
After Sasuke yelled at Naruto, he immediately went to the nearby stream to wash his hands.
From submitting the application form at four o'clock this afternoon, to the end of the first round of exams, it was almost half past five, and then they went directly to the Forest of Death to take the second round of exams, and after the two battles just now, it was almost dark .
So when Sasuke found Sakura, he came to a place near a water source, and prepared to rest for one night, and waited for Naruto to come back by the way, and then set off tomorrow morning.
As for worrying about whether Naruto can't find their location, Sasuke is not worried at all. He heard Kakashi inadvertently said that Naruto's perception is very strong, even surpassing him.
Not to mention that when he came all the way, he left a mark.
Although Naruto doesn't need it.
"Let me tell you about our next plan."
After Sasuke came back with a dark face, Naruto spoke to the two of them.
"The scroll is in hand, we have obtained the qualifications to pass the exam, then for the rest of the time, try to walk to the center of the tower, meet other teams, weak ones can be used to practice, strong or difficult to deal with, we leave directly , there is no need to waste time, what do you think?"
Sasuke: "Yes."
Sakura: "Agree!"
