Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit.

Chapter 591 It Started Already

When Naruto, Hinata and Sasuke arrived at the entrance of the Forest of Death, they found that there were already many people here.

I looked around and found that there were quite a few people I was familiar with.

after all……

After the first round of examinations, there are only seventeen teams here, or fifty-four people.

There were several teams where some members gave up within twenty to thirty minutes of the first round of the exam. Although it did not affect their teammates, their giving up caused their team to lose one or two combat forces.

All I can say is that it is more or less harmful.

But it’s okay. After all, theoretically speaking, all candidates will not be eliminated in this round of exams.

Well, that's just in theory.

Hinata stood next to Naruto, her face slightly red, a little shy but also a little happy.

For her, just being able to stand next to Naruto was enough to make her happy.

Soon, the last group of candidates arrived here.

"Hey, Shikamaru! You guys are so slow~" Naruto greeted the last team.

Shikamaru covered his face with his hands, looking speechless.

He really doesn't want to be the center of attention.

But today, when I went to Ino's house and waited for Ino to come out, I wasted some time.

but……

Shikamaru looked up and nodded to Naruto as a greeting.

Then Shikamaru glanced at Ino again.

Ino's face was full of sorrow at the moment, and she looked to be in a very bad mood.

Shikamaru also understood the other party.

after all……

The reason why I came so late today was because I obtained some unexpected information.

Ino's father, Yamanaka Inoichi...

In the second round of exams, there will still be tasks related to him.

This gave Ino a headache.

The ninjutsu of Heart Turn is actually very perverted to some extent.

It is the best skill to cooperate with teammates when there are teammates.

but……

Then your opponent will not be able to counter you.

If the gap in strength between the two sides is too great, then the technique of mind-changing will never succeed.

What's worse, it's not impossible that it will rebound and hurt yourself.

And Yamanaka Inoichi is undoubtedly the type of person who can bounce back Ino's skills.

So it’s no wonder that Ino is frowning now.

"You are really unusual, kid. Shouldn't you come neither too early nor too late at a time like this?"

Naruto hooked his arm around Shikamaru's neck, looking like a good brother.

He and Shikamaru do have a very good relationship. He, Shikamaru, and Choji have always been the truant trio.

The key is that even when Shikamaru was forced to skip classes every day, his grades were always in the middle. Iruka said many times that if it weren't for Naruto and Choji, Shikamaru's grades would definitely be better.

But it doesn't matter to Shikamaru. He just needs to make sure he can graduate.

And so it is now.

He just needs to make sure he can pass the Chunin Exam and become a Chunin.

As for the final Chunin ranking...

He really doesn't mind.

"I was just delayed by something."

Shikamaru looked at Naruto, hesitating whether or not he should tell him what he knew.

But after thinking about it, Shikamaru gave up.

After all, the advantage of intelligence is still very important to ninjas.

The information that Ino's father will take the second round of exams is important.

But to say it’s not important…it’s actually not very important.

Naruto didn't plan to talk to Shikamaru about the exam, but instead asked Shikamaru about the rest days.

Shikamaru raised an eyebrow, trying to gather information.

But looking at Naruto's clear eyes...

Forget it. I really didn’t do anything these days anyway. I just played games, slept, rested, and ate at home every day. I really didn’t do anything the rest of the time.

As for cultivation...

What can you achieve in just three days?!

So Shikamaru didn't hide anything and started chatting with Naruto.

All the candidates gathered at the entrance of the Death Forest, chatting with each other.

What no one noticed was...

In fact, countless cameras hidden in the Death Forest have started working.

In other words, they are all being broadcast live now.

"Ha, this is so boring. How long do we have to wait?" Naruto asked Shikamaru with his hands behind his head.

Shikamaru looked at Naruto in confusion: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"Ah, we've been waiting for half an hour, but everyone is not here yet." Naruto said.

Shikamaru was stunned and frowned, feeling as if he had grasped something.

But before he could think carefully, Dingci beside him said with a displeased look on his face, holding his phone in his hand: "Last time we were not allowed to bring phones to the exam, but this time we were allowed to bring phones, but they just blocked them. Tsk, isn't it the same whether we turn it on or not? Why? It's better not to let us bring them."

Naruto laughed, and then as if he had thought of something, he asked Choji: "By the way, Choji, what did you bring this time?"

Dingci was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the backpack on his back: "It's full of food~"

Naruto was speechless: "They can't all be snacks..."

Dingci chuckled: "As expected of you, your guess is really accurate."

Naruto:"……"

Shikamaru is so straightforward that he really leaves Naruto speechless.

What they didn't know was that their conversation was being broadcast live to the entire ninja world...

Still in the Hokage meeting room:

Compared to the tense atmosphere during the first round of exams, everyone here is very relaxed now.

Some villages where all the candidates were eliminated have already started to watch the fun.

"Hokage-sama, how long do you think it will take for these children to realize that something is wrong?"

Mei Terumi turned her head and looked at Yuya.

Youya smiled slightly: "The kid from the Nara clan in our village is also on the list of candidates this time, so it won't be long."

Mei Terumi nodded and looked at the live broadcast screen again.

The Fourth Raikage crossed his arms, looked at Youya and curled his lips, "The mindset that has been cultivated for a long time is not so easy to change. In my opinion, it will take at least an hour for some of these children to react."

The Kazekage Rasa of the Sand Village looked at Gaara on the screen, who was carrying a gourd on his back, and he was full of expectations.

Come to your senses quickly, Gaara!

Understand it quickly!

……

I don’t know if it was because of Luo Sha’s prayers, but Gaara, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly took action.

He walked towards the iron gate at the entrance of the Forest of Death, and then...

Just pull gently...

“Crack…”

The door opens...

This scene shocked all the candidates standing by.

Shikamaru widened his eyes when he saw this scene.

How could he not understand this reality?!

The Second Round of the Chunin Exams...

It has already started!!!
