In the forest of death, Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura took turns to be on guard.
Occasionally, there are low howling sounds coming from deep in the woods, which should be from some animals.
There should be no other teams nearby for the time being.
Sasuke took out the food from the folding bag. With the folding bag, he didn't have to worry about eating. The only thing he needed to consider was water, because Sasuke didn't have so many bottles, so he couldn't carry too much fresh water.
Fortunately, this place is close to the river in the center of the Death Forest. Even if there is a shortage of water behind, there is still running water available.
"Sasuke is really reliable. He has prepared so much food."
Naruto picked up a rice ball and stuffed it into his mouth.
“It would be better if Ichiraku Ramen or cup-sized Iraku Ramen.”
"..."
Sasuke was too lazy to answer such a question.
He had discovered before that some of the cup ramen that Naruto brought him to the hospital last time was expired. How bad is this guy's living habits? It's really hard to eat that kind of expired cup ramen.
Will it cause diarrhea?
"Idiot, it would be nice if Sasuke prepared something for you. At least we don't have to go hunting in the dangerous forest. You really think we are here for a picnic."
Sakura lightly punched Naruto on the shoulder.
"I know, I'm just saying it..."
Naruto muttered.
Several people were eating the food in their hands and talking softly.
Suddenly Sasuke stopped what he was doing and his eyes became wary.
It was quiet. The surroundings suddenly became very quiet. There were no howls of animals, and even the chirping of insects disappeared. It was so quiet that it was a bit strange.
He turned his back to the two of them and made a gesture.
The two people who saw Sasuke's gesture also stopped and stood up, back to back to guard each other.
This is a warning, there is danger nearby.
After the eerie silence, Sasuke heard a "hissing" sound.
Something huge was causing friction with the ground and nearby flowers, plants and trees.
In this quiet environment, this low friction sound makes people feel creepy and makes their scalp numb.
"what……"
Naruto couldn't bear the numbing silence and said aloud.
"Quiet……"
Sasuke was about to scold Naruto for not making noise at this time, but he saw a figure standing on a branch from below.
The other party was also looking at him with interest at this time.
With a bamboo hat and a huge purple knot, this person was the strange long-tongued ninja who had been peeping at him before the exam started in the morning!
This was obviously not an accidental encounter. The other person's target was him from the beginning, so he has been looking for him since entering the examination room, and has been looking for him until here.
When did he get close to this place? He had never discovered before that this level of concealment method is really what a ninja taking the Chunin Exam should have? And that terrifying insight in the morning.
Why would a ninja of this strength come to take the Chunin Exam?
A layer of cold sweat covered Sasuke's back.
"Naruto, protect Sakura and leave quickly!"
Sasuke conveyed what he wanted to express to Naruto as briefly as possible, and at the same time took off his shirt. At the same time, the Sharingan entered the kaleidoscope form, and God's Favor was activated.
The sense of danger this man gave Sasuke was not inferior to that of the Apostle of the Abyss, and in the ninja world, he did not have the blessing of Wendy's power of thousands of winds. Facing an enemy of this level, he would not dare to hold back.
At this time, a huge python appeared beside them, opened its bloody mouth, and rushed towards them.
"Move, Naruto, quickly!"
As soon as Sasuke's dragon wings stretched out, he found that Naruto and Sakura didn't move at all, only their faces were filled with fear.
Killing intent.
Although the strong murderous intention brought by the python has no effect on Sasuke, who has experienced the endless hatred and corruption of Tevalin in Teyvat, Naruto and Sakura at this time are still rookie ninjas who have just graduated from the ninja school. They have no
Sasuke experienced that, and was completely shocked by the killing intent released by the python and that strange person, unable to move.
Damn it, so careless.
Naturally, Sasuke couldn't predict that a ninja with such strength would come up and target them. He picked up Naruto and Sakura by their collars and lifted them into the air.
The long-tongued monster who had been observing Sasuke before became more energetic now, and his tongue was spitting out more frequently.
"Is this...the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan?"
"I see, at this age you have activated the Mangekyō Sharingan. Sasuke, you have given me more surprises than your brother."
"What a wonderful body...so young and handsome...so much potential."
"He is indeed a genius of the Uchiha clan."
"It's more fun than I thought."
He stretched out one hand and raised it into the air. The arm instantly transformed into multiple long snakes and shot out towards Sasuke in the air.
Sasuke accelerated his speed into the air, but those long snakes spread faster. Although Sasuke escaped the entanglement of the long snakes, Naruto in his hand was entangled by the snake's arm and pulled downwards.
Naruto's clothes were torn apart by the tugging of the two, dragged down, and thrown into the mouth of the huge python that attacked them like garbage, and was swallowed into its belly.
"Naruto!"
Seeing Naruto being swallowed, Sasuke's eyes were splitting as he accelerated his flight and placed Sakura on a higher branch of a nearby big tree to ensure that she would not be affected by the upcoming battle.
"Sakura, protect yourself, I will rescue Naruto."
He left a shadow clone for Sakura and returned to the battlefield with dragon wings.
The other party seemed to know that Sasuke would come back and waited there with interest.
Naturally, Sasuke would not be stupid enough to ask who the other person was and what his purpose was at this moment.
When they first met, he had already noticed that the other person was staring at his Sharingan greedily.
At that moment, he knew that this was a rat who coveted the power of the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.
Since you want to get Uchiha's power, then be prepared to leave something behind.
Sharingan locked the opponent's position, and Sasuke quickly took off.
Forming a seal, blue lightning appeared in his hand.
Retracting his wings, Sasuke quickly fell from the sky above the man.
The gravitational acceleration produced by this altitude is much faster than the acceleration produced by moving forward in a forest full of obstacles.
Chidori.
The destructive lightning penetrated the opponent's heavenly spirit from top to bottom in an instant with the speed of afterimage appearing, directly annihilating all the body tissues above the opponent's neck.
Has it been eliminated?
Sasuke flapped his wings, panted heavily, and stared at the opponent's fallen body.
Controlling his body at this speed also puts a great burden on him. The reaction of the fall requires him to control the dragon wings to offset it. Otherwise, even if Chidori penetrates the opponent, he will fall straight to the landmark because he cannot control his speed.
, turned into a puddle of Sasuke-chan.
Just when he thought he was done and wanted to rescue Naruto, the body with no head began to twitch, then split open, and a human figure emerged from the body like a white snake shedding its skin.
Orochi flow substitute technique.
The appearance of the person emerging from this body is completely different from the previous one, and the forehead protector has also changed from the forehead protector of Kusakure Village to the forehead protector of Sound Ninja Village.
Moreover, there was no anger on his face that would be caused by being hit by a Chidori. Instead, there was a kind of morbid excitement.
"He is worthy of being the person who has inherited the name of Uchiha."
"You are indeed brothers. There is more power in your eyes than Uchiha Itachi."
