Inuzuka Kiba took a deep breath and suppressed his impetuous thoughts.
Although he was unhappy, Inuzuka Kiba had to admit that Shikamaru was very clear about his thoughts, speculations, and analysis of the entanglements of interests.
No matter how difficult it is for Inuzuka Kiba to predict the content of the subsequent exams, even if he knows the content, it is unlikely that it will be as beneficial to Class 8 as this battle for the scroll. Therefore, whether it is based on personal and team interests, or the previous
For the dissatisfaction of the ninjas from other villages, the best choice for Class 8 in this exam is naturally to find a team that they can cooperate with, and use their numerical advantage to ambush each team of candidates one by one, paving the way for the future exam.
And if you are looking for a team that cannot be trusted, you have to be distracted during the battle to guard against your teammates and calculate the gains and losses in the battle to prevent the opponent from turning their backs and refusing to admit their mistakes. You will not be able to use your full strength, but will be tied up. It is better to act alone. Think about it this way,
In fact, the scope of candidates who can cooperate with Class 8 is very small.
In Konoha Village, the veteran genin had almost no interaction with the nine new genin, and they thought they were rich in experience. For these newcomers who had just graduated from the ninja school and took the exam not long ago, there was a lot of jealousy and hostility in their hearts - if they were taking the exam
Standing out from the competition, in contrast to the lack of ability of these veteran genin who have taken the exam many times - coupled with the fact that the newcomers who just graduated from the ninja school are too immature, Inuzuka Kiba and other genin of the same generation have become a thorn in the side of most Konoha genin.
.
Among the three genin classes of the same class, Naruto and Sasuke from class 7, Kiba Inuzuka and Shino Aburame had a very normal relationship when they were in ninja school. In comparison, only Shikamaru from class 10 had a very normal relationship.
Relationships, strength, and even a certain tacit understanding cultivated in ninja school are the best choices. Choji and Ino are also familiar with each other, and they obey Shikamaru's words, so they are very good candidates for cooperation.
As long as these information and conditions are identified and sorted out one by one, the answer can be easily obtained. All Shikamaru has to do is to leave a hint to the other party based on this.
"Hehe." Inuzuka frowned, wiped the tip of his nose with his index finger in embarrassment, and said to Shikamaru: "You actually guessed that we are coming back to find you? Could it be that there are candidates in this exam that you care about?
?”
"Of course." Shikamaru answered generously without any intention of hiding anything.
Hearing this, Aburame Shino couldn't help but frown and asked, "Is it Hyuga Neji? Do you want to take the opportunity to kill him during this exam?"
Although they have not met yet, Nara Shikamaru and Hyuga Neji are the two most stubborn genin in Konoha Village. Not only are many people in the village comparing the two to each other, but even some people within the Nara and Hyuga clans are comparing them to each other.
The tribesmen use this as a way to show their signs.
Although Hyuga Neji is a ninja from the Hyuga clan, his talent and strength are not shackles. He graduated from the ninja school with impressive results. In terms of physical skills, he is even more influenced by many ninja schools.
The teacher's praise, and his performance during the genin period also maintained an excellent momentum. Although he did not participate in the chunin exam in the first year, which disappointed many people who paid attention to him, his performance for more than a year made the village and even
The members of the split Hyuga clan vaguely regarded him as a rare genius from the Hyuga clan.
On the other hand, the Nara clan is just a ninja clan responsible for providing medicinal materials to the village, and most of its secret techniques are auxiliary. Its status is not low, but it is different from the Hyuga clan, an old and famous family in Konoha, known for its blood inheritance limit and soft boxing techniques. In comparison, both in terms of status and strength, they seem to be far from rivals.
Nara Shikamaru is really well-known to Konoha because of the praise of the Nara clan after returning from the mission to the Land of Waves. Coupled with his many previous performances, he is also vaguely regarded as a genius who will stand alone for the Nara clan in the future.
In this exam, two so-called genius genin participated together. The Nara clan members were eager to hope that the genius of the Nara clan could challenge the genius of the Hyuga clan in one fell swoop, making the Nara clan feel proud and proud. The Hyuga clan was divided into different clans, and even some clan members The tribe also hopes that Hyuga Neji will stand out through this Chunin exam and prove his strength and status.
Nara Shikamaru and Hinata Neji, whether they like it or not, are destined to be competitors in this exam. There is no room for relaxation, because there are too many expectations behind them, and no one wants to lose to their opponent.
In fact, you can understand this without thinking. Many Konoha villagers also know this. Aburame Shino naturally also knows the situation of the two of them. Therefore, when Shikamaru said that there was a candidate that he cared about, he was the first to think of it. Hinata Neji.
Gathering the strength of the six Genin Classes 8 and 10, no matter how powerful Hyuga Neji is, he will definitely be hated on the spot.
Aburame Shino thought so. Unfortunately, after Shikamaru heard his words, he slowly shook his head, denied his guess, and said: "It's not Hyuga Neji, I will deal with that guy myself, no need to rely on him." Your help.”
Shikamaru did not deceive Shino Aburame. His target was of course not Hinata Neji, but an even more terrifying guy. He was a chuunin or even a jounin-level enemy. The strength of the three genin in the tenth team was not at all An opponent of the same level needs to rely on the strength of the three genin from the eighth team and combine it with six outstanding genin who have their own strengths to be sure of success.
Inuzuka Kiba's ninja dog and Hyuga Hinata's Byakugan can ensure that the opponent is found at a safe distance, and there is enough time to formulate a plan based on the environment, and a surprise attack can increase the chance of success.
A sharp and piercing cry came from the sky, and a black shadow swooped down quickly, falling to the ground like a cannonball. However, when it was still a certain distance from the ground, it suddenly spread its wings, slowed down its falling speed, flapped its wings, and landed on Shikamaru. On his shoulder was a small gray sparrowhawk.
"It seems too early to say this now." After seeing the Sparrowhawk landing on his shoulder, Shikamaru waved his right hand, took out the string that had been prepared, and quickly tied up the Sparrowhawk. At the same time, he said to the Sparrowhawk after he saw it. The three members of Class 10 looked at each other and said: "We found two teams fighting. Do you want to go and get a bargain together? Maybe the other party just has the scroll you want."
"You don't need to worry about the scroll!" Inuzuka Kiba curled his lips and said to Shikamaru: "We are capable of finding it ourselves. What kind of scroll are you?"
"Scroll of the Earth," Shikamaru chuckled and said to Inuzuka Kiba, "It's exactly what you need!"
Ino had gone to visit the scroll distribution before. The six genin of Konoha genin classes 7 and 8 were so familiar with each other that they naturally observed what scroll the other party was holding. It was just because they were in the same class that they were not the first choice targets.
"..." Although Inuzuka Kiba was a little confused that Shikamaru knew about the scrolls carried by his team, he thought that Aburame Shino was inspired by Shikamaru before and thought of collecting information by handing out scrolls, so he didn't think so.
Got it.
Inuzuka Kiba put his right hand into his ninja tool bag and took out a scroll of heaven. After a slight hesitation, he shook his hand and gently threw it to Shikamaru. At the same time, he said: "This is what we just got. Follow us."
The scroll he carries is the same as the scroll of heaven."
"Oh?" Shikamaru was not afraid of Inuzuka Kiba's deception. He reached out and took the scroll. After hearing what the other party said, he raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to get a scroll so quickly."
"There is a blind team who wants to pick on us." Inuzuka Kiba shrugged and said disdainfully. Although he acted like this, Shikamaru could still detect a hint of pride in the other party's tone: "We don't need this scroll.
Anyway, if our two teams want to cooperate, I will give it to you first! But the next actions must be based on our goals!"
"Aren't you afraid that we will do something bad to you if we get this scroll?" Shikamaru tossed the scroll and looked at Inuzuka Kiba with a half-smile, teasing.
"In this forest, even if you run away, where can you go? Is there still a way to escape our pursuit?" After hearing Shikamaru's words, Inuzuka Kiba was slightly stunned, and then sneered and said: "And you are only two people now.
Individuals, even if they fight head-on, will not be our opponent."
When Shikamaru heard this, he chuckled, but held the struggling Sparrowhawk tightly and did not answer Inuzuka Kiba.
When Hinata Hinata's eyes swept across the tree hole where Shikamaru was before, she looked startled and couldn't help but look carefully.
"Who said there are only two of us, Ya, how come you can't even do arithmetic after you graduated from the ninja school?" A clear and sweet voice came from the tree hole, accompanied by a silver bell-like laughter, Ino turned around
Yao walked out of the tree hole, looked at Inuzuka Kiba jokingly, and said, "You said there are only two of us!?"
Seeing Ino appear, Choci also got out of the bushes. He and Ino stood beside Shikamaru, looking up at the three people from Team 8.
Seeing this, Inuzuka Kiba looked at Hinata Hinata in confusion, but saw the other person shook his head slightly, obviously not knowing what was going on.
"Forget it, Kiba." Aburame Shino said to Inuzuka Kiba expressionlessly, then turned to face Shikamaru and said: "Shikamaru, you should know that verbal confrontation has no meaning. It is rare that the rules of this exam are lax.
It’s a good time to eliminate your competitors. Instead of wasting time here, it’s better to act as soon as possible. Can you find a better collaborator than us?”
"Cooperation doesn't matter, but you must clearly distinguish the leader." Shikamaru spread his hands and said to Aburame Shino: "Next, I can agree to take the main action to obtain the Earth Scroll you need, but if I am discovered
target, we must prioritize fighting against it!”
"Who is the target you are talking about!?" Inuzuka Kiba asked impatiently, and he was actually a little curious in his heart. Seeing how cautious and vigilant Shikamaru looked, he obviously regarded him as an unprecedented enemy, and he was alone.
I was not sure how to deal with it, so I wanted to rely on the strength of the three people.
