Chapter 916

Tsunade glanced at Shikamaru and realized that he was serious and not joking.

"Xiao Ning is in charge of this strength test. If he doesn't object, I have no objection."

Tsunade handed over the choice to Zhou Xiaoning. Anyway, her purpose was to know Naruto's current level of strength. As for how many people participated, she really didn't care.

Zhou Xiaoning didn't give an answer immediately, but looked at Shikamaru with examining eyes.You know, Shikamaru is notoriously afraid of trouble. With his personality, it is absolutely impossible to take part in some strength test for no reason, so he must have some kind of conspiracy.

Since Shikamaru dared to raise it blatantly, he was naturally not afraid that Zhou Xiaoning would guess it, so when he looked back at Zhou Xiaoning, his eyes were quite calm, as if saying: "I just have another purpose, you come to bite me!"

Zhou Xiaoning frowned, he could see Shikamaru's provocation, but he wanted to see what kind of crooked plans Shikamaru was playing.

"I don't care, just to see how far you have developed your fruit ability, Shikamaru."

Zhou Xiaoning spread his hands and said nonchalantly.

"Okay, Shikamaru can also participate in the strength test. As for the specific time and test method, it's up to you, Ning, to decide."

Tsunade knows about Devil Fruits. After all, she taught Haruno Sakura's medical skills. She knows exactly what level Haruno Sakura is.And Zhou Xiaoning didn't ask the Xiaoqiangs to help him keep the secret back then, so Tsunade only asked a little bit, and Haruno Sakura confessed everything honestly.Of course, this does not include the curse seal of the bird in the cage.

The magical power of the devil fruit has attracted Tsunade's attention. She wanted to talk to Zhou Xiaoning several times, but Zhou Xiaoning seemed to be able to pinch and count. Every time Tsunade sent Anbu to summon him, he would be "coincidentally" going out.Even if she came to the door in person, she would only see Bai, but not even Zhou Xiaoning.Because of this incident, Tsunade was sulking for several days.

If Zhou Xiaoning hadn't sold hundreds of bottles of physique enhancing potions to Tsunade at the cheapest price (basically a gift) in the name of the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce later on, if she calmed down a little bit of her anger, I'm afraid that at this time Gang His hand had already greeted him with a strange punch.

"Fruit ability? What is that?"

Ji Lai also had a dazed expression on his face, he just came back from the outside, he didn't know, it's normal.

"When the proficiency test starts, you will know. Believe me, you will be surprised."

Tsunade sold a trick, Haruno Sakura's ability to restore fruit alone has already made her amazed.And as far as she knew, among Shikamaru and his group of friends, quite a few of them had obtained Devil Fruits, so she really wondered what their fruit abilities were like, which really made her curious.

"Since even you, Tsunade, have said that, then, I really want to go and see it then."

Jiraiya was also whetted by Tsunade's appetite. Things that can make Tsunade interested are definitely not easy, and he can't miss it.

"Okay, let's do this first. The test time is set at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and the place will be in the Death Forest."

Everyone had no objection to Zhou Xiaoning's arrangement, and Tsunade even directly ordered Anbu to completely seal off the Death Forest starting at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning, and no one was allowed to enter or exit until the strength test was over.

After coming out of Hokage's office, Zhou Xiaoning teleported home directly, and enjoyed lunch with Bai, completely without the tension before the battle.

On the other hand, Shikamaru took Naruto and Haruno Sakura to visit Ino and the others.In order to adapt to and develop the "gift" they got from Zhou Xiaoning, the young heroes have not sent out missions for almost a month, but the results are quite remarkable, basically everyone has made great progress.

That night, all the Xiaoqiang gathered at Shikamaru's house and stayed until late at night before leaving. What they talked about and what they did during that time, even Shikamaru's parents didn't know.

At eight o'clock the next day, Zhou Xiaoning appeared at the entrance of the Death Forest on time.

"I remember that Naruto, Sakura, and Shikamaru are the only ones who will take part in the strength test, but why are there so many more people?"

Zhou Xiaoning's eyes swept over Zhong Xiaoqiang, and finally fell on Shikamaru.He dared to bet his integrity that it must be Shikamaru's fault.

"Hahaha, how can such an interesting thing as the strength test be missed, my uncle, right Akamaru?"

"Wang, wang!"

"Although it's a pity that I can't compete with you alone, but through this test, I should be able to see the gap between me and you."

"Brother Zhou, let's have a contest of youth!"

Although the only ones who spoke were Inuzuka Ya, Neji, and Xiao Li, judging from the performance of all Xiaoqiang, they basically all had the same attitude.Even Hinata was the same. Although she shyly hid behind Ino when she met Zhou Xiaoning's eyes, she didn't show any intention of quitting.

"Okay, okay, I promise you."

Zhou Xiaoning sighed and compromised.Anyway, for him, one sheep is herding, and a flock of sheep is shedding, and it doesn't matter if there are more or less.

"Next, I will announce the content of this strength test. Have you seen the scroll in my hand?"

Zhou Xiaoning clapped his hands, and there was an extra scroll in his hand, with the word "secret" printed on it, and a sealing technique was added, obviously it was a secret letter.

"Your mission is to find ways to grab this scroll from me, unlock the seal, and read the contents. As long as you can do it, you will pass the test."

"In addition, you can enter the Death Forest now, and I will enter after an hour. During this hour, you can either ambush or set a trap. In short, treat me as an enemy spy. Yes. By the way, I would like to remind you that if you don’t have the mentality to kill me, you won’t be able to pass the test.”

"Is it an hour in advance? You are really confident."

Shikamaru showed a wry smile, and he even began to wonder if his plan was a little impulsive.But the matter has progressed to the present, and he can't help turning back, so no matter how uncertain he is, he can only bite the bullet and go on.

Thinking of this, Shikamaru immediately sent a look to Inuzuka Ya.

Inuzuka Kiba understood, and immediately said as discussed earlier: "Just the test is so boring, why don't we make a bet."

"bet?"

Zhou Xiaoning frowned, it was finally time for Tu Qiong to meet him, but he wanted to see what Shikamaru wanted to do!
