Chapter 23 - Chapter 23 : Exam Begins

.

Team 7 moved to the exam location, They were standing in front of the Arena for the Second Exam: Training Ground 44 also known as Forest of Death

The Proctor for this Exam is Anko Mitarashi

Right after the First Exam ended which was a written test, Team 7 confidently went and solved all the problems, Sasuke was the only one who figured out the meaning of this exam, He used his Two-Tomoe Sharingan to look at the movements of others to solve the problems, Even when they declared the 10th question, Team 7 did not even think about backing down and stayed seated which resulted in them and several teams passing exam

Sasuke with the intensity of Zabuza's bloodlust and his feeling of despair that Naruto was better at that Situation against an A-Rank Jonin triggered Sasuke enough to turn his One-Tomoe Sharingan to Two-Tomoe

Naruto after learning Shadow Clone Jutsu and noticing the fact that he can get the memories of his Clones

He started sending his clones to the Library, He was a book reader from the start of the Academy, But since there were many books and he also needed time to train and attend classes he could not finish reading many books in the Library but now with his Shadow Clone Jutsu he can complete which he did in a week 

Which consist of many things like History, Geography, Mathematics, and Science, Even though these subjects were taught in the Academy they were on a basic level and Naruto who had nothing to do instead of Missions started going or sending his clones to the Library

Now front of the Training Ground 44 Aka. The Forest of Death, They have been instructed to enter with a scroll where they have to reach the center of this Forest, In that Center there is a Tower that they have to reach within Five days

But they don't just have to reach the center, They need to be in the center with both Heaven and Earth scroll

While they will be getting one scroll, They will have to keep their Scroll safe and get their hands on the other one

...Means among all the teams that have passed, Half of them will fail this exam

"Alright, Sign the consent forms and get your scroll, After that go to your designated gates from where you will enter Forest of Death"

Anko gave the last instructions and let the Teams take the scrolls and stand at the gates where they would enter the Forest of Death from

Team 7 got Heaven Scroll as the starting scroll, They were instructed to enter the Forest of Death from Gate No. 12 upon the start of the exam

The same happened for the other participant teams who were assigned to different gates to enter and after half an hour the signal sounds

"Now, The Second Stage of the Chunin Exam Begins Now!"

Anko gave the order and all the Participants entered the deep and known-to-be-dangerous Forest of Death

Team 7 ran to cover most of the ground to reach the middle and look for the teams to get scrolls, There was another Team which entered from Gate No. 15 and chose to follow Team 7, Though they were far from them and also had the best experience in order conceal themselves so Team 7 did not notice them

Team 7 got to a big tree where they stopped, In the matter of sensory ability, Naruto was the best in Team 7 but that fact was only known by him, So he just used this opportunity to look for potential threats

Naruto needed to be relaxed in order to use his sensory abilities, He who is Naturally more affiliated with Chakra cannot keep on using the other energy which helps him use the strange abilities which are still unknown to him even after reading so many books and scrolls

Naruto chose to not tell anyone until he figured out what these Ability's origins were and is there anyone else who could perform them

Naruto looked around to spot a Potential threat and found many, There was one right near them

He had a headband of the Village Hidden in the Rain, Naruto did not change his expression and looked toward his team

"Wait for me, I will be back in a Minute"

"Alrig- Wait What?, Naruto We should not split up, Ther-"

"I know but I need to do something private, so give me a minute"

Sakura tried to stop Naruto but then understood what Naruto wanted to do and did not speak any further

Naruto jumped and kept his focus on the guy who was following them

When he saw Naruto going all on his own, He chose to deal with him first so he started chasing him

He saw Naruto going behind a tree, He ran towards the tree with Kunai in his hand to capture Naruto

He got in the position and when he looked on the other side of the tree where Naruto went there was no one, He frantically started looking around for Naruto who was nowhere to be seen

Suddenly his eyes turned dark and he fell into someone's arms

It was Naruto, He travelled through his Shadow and got behind the Hidden Rain Shinobi to knock him out

"That was easy, I hope he has a Scroll on him"

.

.

.

While Naruto was dealing with the Hidden Rain Shinobi, The remaining members of Team 7 were facing another Shinobi, This Shinobi was the same one whom Naruto previously sensed who came from Gate No. 15, There was only one Shinobi who attacked Team 7 while Naruto was away

This Shinobi in truth is a Rogue Ninja of the Leaf

He also has been known as one of the Legendary Sanin's, He is the previous Fourth Hokage Candidate

Orochimaru

Hi, So just a quick question

Can someone who did not go to Mount Myoboku or Ryuchi Cave learn Sage Mode, Like without the some of cases as Jugo's Clan which can Absorb natural energy constantly

So without all that can someone just understand and start absorbing the Natural Energy like all the Sage Mode users do after learning it?
