Hidden Otsutsuki.

"Fourth Kazekage-sama, we are here. Please rest first, the assessment will start soon." Lu Jiu bowed slightly, his eyes drifted quietly to the Fourth Kazekage again, scanning up and down.

"Okay. Then... I'll wait. Where are the two Hokage-samas?" Orochimaru let go of his perception as soon as he sat down.But within his range of perception, he didn't feel the breath of Minato and Hirazan.

"Well... the two Hokage-samas are currently inspecting the examination room, and they are doing it themselves to rule out any influence on the normal progress of the examination." Lu Jiu's eyes flickered slightly, and the lie came out of his mouth.

Of course he knew what the two Hokages were doing, but there was no need for a person from another village to know about this kind of thing.

"But I couldn't find the two Hokages in this examination room? Kagesuke, I hope you're not lying to me." Having never found a chance, Orochimaru finally took advantage of this time to forcefully release a murderous aura and suppress Shikajiu ruthlessly.

In this way, you can prove your identity most effectively.The murderous aura of the shadow class is the evidence of strength.

And Orochimaru has stepped into the level of strength for several years, so it can naturally imitate the power of the fourth Kazekage, or even go beyond it.

"Sorry, Lord Kazekage Fourth. I didn't explain clearly. This is my negligence. In addition to the above-ground forest, insect beasts, and even psychic beasts, the Forest of Death also has underground uncertainties. Only Hokage-sama knows what's there, and we... haven't touched that level of status and ability yet." Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Lu Jiu could only make up a little more story. Of course, this is not what the two Hokages are doing.

"Underground can isolate Chakra."

"That's it. Okay, then I'll wait here." Orochimaru sat down obediently, gave Lu Jiu a meaningful look, and put away his breath.

"Yes." Lu Jiu gasped as if relieved, and walked away in two steps instead of three.Immediately, he closed his eyes slightly, and the spiritual energy was transmitted to Haiyi Yamanaka who was sitting in the center of the forest.

"Quickly call the two Hokage-samas, Kazekage has already arrived at the examination room."

"So fast? There are still three to ten minutes before the estimated time you gave..."

"That's right, I didn't expect those examinees to leave so quickly. One by one... many of them left without finishing their papers. Although Yibixi's move is said to have a guaranteed pass rate...but... there is no way, hurry up."

"Okay, then I'll call now." Haiyi opened and closed his eyes, and the powerful spiritual power switched objects in an instant, and accurately connected to the two Hokages far outside the village.

"Hai Yi? So anxious, what's the matter?" A mental force just smashed into Minato's brain. If he wasn't familiar with Hai Yi's breath, he probably would have blasted out of his head long ago.

"Fourth Kazekage arrived at the examination room half an hour earlier than originally planned. That is... now you need to return immediately." Hai conveyed Lu Jiu's original words concisely, and it was just the reaction of the two...

"Wait a minute, why does he... don't care about so much, there are some situations outside the village, we are investigating. I suspect that these have something to do with the fourth Kazekage." Minato's eyes were fixed on an inexplicable protrusion at the entrance of the village, and his feet moved over unconsciously.

"However, you two suspect the Fourth Kazekage... huh? Why do you two doubt the Fourth Kazekage?" Haiyi should be the only one among the four who didn't know. He didn't hear about the Fourth Kazekage simply by transmitting information.

"I'll talk about it later, for now... Forget it, I'm taking a photo clone here, three generations of adults, go back with me first. Haiyi, draw a flying thunder god spell next to you, and we will be there soon." Minato made a seal with both hands, and an identical shadow clone appeared beside him.

……

"Oshemaru, our side should have been discovered..." Scorpion watched Minato's main body leave, and then passed a trace of chakra to Orochimaru with peace of mind.

After all, the shadow clone only has [-]% of the various abilities of the main body, and it does not pose any threat at all in front of a strong man like Xie.At best, he is just a sentry guard, and he should not be discovered unless he walks in front of him.

"Discovered? What's the situation?" Just as "Fourth Kazekage" sat down, a trace of chakra in his mind disturbed his nerves.Scorpion's voice sounded a little impatient.

"Minato and Hizhan just wandered around our hiding place. They probably sensed some remnants of the aura of your subordinates. Anyway... they should have something to do elsewhere, so they left. You'd better hurry up, we don't have much time to prepare. I suggest, it's better to start now." Scorpion's words are unquestionable, more like an order than a suggestion.

"Hehe! Scorpion... I think you have to thank me. I was here just now, looking for the two of them, so I let the two of them leave your place." Dashewan grinned unnaturally, and his face under the mask formed a strange shape.Scorpion's urging was even a compliment in his opinion.

Besides, what about Scorpion...what does it have to do with him?His purpose...was never to destroy Konoha!In his eyes, the scorpion is just a powerful chess piece that is easy to maneuver.

"Oshemaru, I advise you not to be overconfident. I believe you know the strength of the two Hokages better than me! If you don't attack now, wait for them to react. You should know Konoha's strength better than me, right?" Scorpion suddenly calmed down, and in just a moment, the chakra reaction in the village suddenly increased a little.

"Scorpion, don't act rashly!" Orochimaru has captured this change, and what he can do, Konoha's perception troops will naturally not be slower than him...

From this moment on, the war... is about to begin.

Orochimaru closed his eyes slightly, and put one hand on the sleeve of the royal robe.

If you want to go to war, this clothes will be very in the way.

However, the expected chaotic streets, noisy crowds, and occasional exclamations did not appear.

I can't even feel the scene of ninja rushing to the battlefield one after another.

"Scorpion, what's going on with you?"

"I... I activated my hundred-machine exercise." Scorpion's voice trembled in his mind, and the faint disbelief was buried deep under the words.

"Then why... didn't you start a fight?" After hearing such a definite answer, Orochimaru couldn't help being surprised.There is no need to question the reliability of the scorpion. Why is it easy for him to manipulate the puppet, but this time it seems to be overturned?

"I... just woke up the puppet, and the chakra line seemed to be cut off. I only connected five times to test the water, and within a second, when the puppet just floated up, my control was cut off." Scorpion described his feelings just now with some doubts, and then waited for Orochimaru's reply in a daze.

silence……

The connection between the two parties also seemed to be cut off... silence.

"The control has been cut off? What is this operation... Wait, the two of them have come over, and I will discuss it with you later. My signal will definitely come." After saying these words, Orochimaru opened his eyes indifferently, and a cold light pierced towards his water gate. His expression adjusted slightly, and he conjured up the temperament of the fourth Kazekage.

"I've been waiting for a long time, Fourth Kazekage-sama." Minato bowed slightly, showing his usual smile.Without the blessing of the Naruto hat, Minato looked more friendly.

But Orochimaru's perspective is obviously different.What he could feel was the murderous aura of this man who had been battle-tested like him, as well as the grievances and hostility of the enemies gathered all over him.

It's just that ordinary people can't feel it.

"It's all right. Are all the candidates here? I'm looking forward to this assessment..." Orochimaru withdrew his gaze, restrained his breath again, and moved his eyes to the interior of the death forest.

"This is only the second assessment. It was the third assessment, the one-on-one one-on-one match, which ranked last that really separated the Chunin." Minato glanced at the fourth Kazekage in surprise, pointed at the crowd at the edge of the death forest, and explained the arrangement of the entire Chunin examination.

"Of course I know this... Hehe, it's just that team fighting is obviously more interesting than individual strength, isn't it?" Orochimaru grinned, and after finding a total of six ninjas he had placed in the crowd of candidates, he turned his head to look at Minato meaningfully: "Isn't Konoha's famous Inoka butterfly resounding through the ninja world because of team fighting?"

"This is...it will be a good thing to make the fourth Kazekage interested! Then, I will let them start...the rules, they will gradually understand during this assessment." After speaking, Minato appeared in front of the examinees, standing with his hands behind his back.

"Fourth Hokage-sama." The ninja who served as the invigilator of this test saluted respectfully and took half a step back.

"There is no need to be too polite. Then let me introduce the rules of the game. The biggest rule of this game is that there are no rules! Except that you cannot die, you are completely free. The goal is to go to the central tower. Only eight ninjas are eligible to pass, and the rest must be eliminated! You can run directly, or advance slowly. You will not provide food during this time. Fend for yourself, ninjas...how you want to challenge is your choice. If you live in peace...we will add rules. I hope you realize it. Good luck." The figure appeared next to Orochimaru again, sitting quietly in the auditorium, picked up the bamboo hat and put it on his head.

The corners of the mouth are slightly raised.

I don't know why...

"Fourth Hokage, is such a plan too hasty? Not to mention whether they can survive, the most important thing is that there are no rules as you said... They can really do it..."

"Don't worry, I have my own measure. Ninjas who can stay are not cowards. They have passed Ibixi's test, and they will not let others go easily."

"That's it, that's good, haha... This kind of life-and-death situation, if it is ordinary, is meaningless. What do you think, the third Hokage-senpai..." The conversation changed, and the slightly teasing words pointed directly at Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

"Oh hehe, the fourth Kazekage will still think of my old bones! What you said is very... the ninja exam, it should be a bit bloody!" The third generation couldn't hear the middle of the sentence, but also cheerfully echoed.

"Yeah...bloody...hehehe!"
