The next day arrived in the blink of an eye.

All the candidates gathered at the edge of the Death Forest, ready to go.

After yesterday's written test, there were 43 teams left, with a total of 130 people.

The second round of test - teamwork - will be launched in this vast forest.

That forest covers a staggering 3.14 million square meters!

In an area of ​​twenty kilometers in radius, more than a hundred people scattered there are just like a drop in the ocean and can easily hide their bodies.

The roles of hunter and prey can be swapped at any time here.

"Good morning! Yutsuki!"

Naruto waved happily.

Class 7 had already lined up early in the morning and had been waiting for a long time.

When Yutsuki appeared with a lazily yawn, Naruto and the other candidates had already received their respective scrolls.

"Hi~"

Faced with Naruto's seemingly inexhaustible energy, Yutsuki could only wave his hands weakly.

I didn't wake up naturally this time.

"Yuyue, go get your scroll, the exam is about to begin!"

Naruto walked behind Yutsuki and gently pushed him forward.

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away."

Mitarashi Anko was in charge of distributing scrolls from behind a makeshift curtain.

"Hi, examiner, I'm here to get the scroll."

Youyue walked lightly through the curtain.

Mitarashi Anko was busy writing something with her head down, and she said without even looking up, "Why are you here just now? Everyone else has already received their gifts and left."

"Ha~ I got up a little late, but I should still be on time."

"Sign up."

Anko looked up with a questioning look in her eyes.

"Shigong Yuzuki."

"Shinomiya Yutsuki..." Mitarashi Anko lowered her head and began to search through the documents in her hand.

"Hey, why are you alone? Where's your team? Where's the jonin who's guiding you? Why did they let you take the exam alone?"

She glanced at the information, her face full of confusion.

Taking part in the Chunin Exam alone? This is no joke. If you are not careful, you could die!

Looking at the somewhat confused Mitarashi Anko, Youyue had a flash of understanding in her mind.

It seems that Konoha did not make its situation known to the public. At least Mitarashi Anko is completely confused.

You Yue grinned and explained, "I don't have any of what you said. I have always been a one-man army."

"This... then how should I arrange your exam? This is a test of teamwork." Mitarashi Anko frowned.

"That's nothing. I am a team all by myself. I just need to cooperate with myself."

"You have this kind of personality... Fine, but without the help of your teammates, your situation will be much more dangerous than others."

"Remember, don't force yourself. If you really can't do it, quit the exam. Safety first."

Mitarashi Anko warned earnestly.

Youyue grinned and said confidently: "Don't worry, I still have some skills."

Mitarashi Anko nodded slightly, without saying anything else, and handed a scroll to Youyue.

"Shigong Youyue, this is your scroll, keep it."

"Remember, don't open it without permission, otherwise..."

"Hey, what are you doing!"

Before he finished speaking, Mitarashi Anko's face was filled with astonishment.

Yuuzuki closed the scroll sheepishly, "Sorry, I'm just curious about what's written inside."

Mitarashi Anko stared at him blankly.

After a long while, she finally managed to say, "Are you okay?"

Youyue tied the scroll around her waist, somewhat puzzled:

"Why would anything happen to me?"

"But……"

Mitarashi Anko's eyes shuttled back and forth between Youyue and the scroll, full of surprise.

"The scroll contains hypnosis. Once you open it, you will be affected and fall into coma immediately."

"This is for those candidates who are too curious and don't follow the rules. You will be eliminated as soon as you open it."

Mitarashi Anko couldn't help but ask, "How are you okay?"

Youyue smiled awkwardly:

“Maybe I’m in better shape.”

"is it?"

Mitarashi Anko looked at him doubtfully.

But no matter how you look at it, he is just an ordinary boy, nothing special except that he looks a little handsome.

So she waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, go get ready first, the exam is about to start."

"Forget it this time, but once the exam starts, you can't open the scroll again!"

"That will really get you out of the game."

Mitarashi Anko warned seriously.

"Definitely not."

Youyue nodded solemnly.

"Go."

After Youyue turned and left, Mitarashi Anko ticked the list in her hand.

"Okay, the final preparations are almost ready to begin."

After closing the list, Mitarashi Anko was about to leave, but her eyes accidentally fell on another scroll beside her.

"Did the scroll malfunction just now?"

Mitarashi Anko didn't believe Youyue's explanation. How could a little boy have any special physique?

She was more inclined to think that it was a problem with the scroll itself.

Once your eyes fall on that scroll, it's hard to look away, and curiosity surges in you.

For some unknown reason, Mitarashi Anko picked up the scroll.

Let me see what's going on.

She opened the scroll with curiosity.

Bang...

The next moment, Mitarashi Anko fell straight to the ground with a peaceful look on her face.

Soon, the sound of even breathing was heard.

It’s great to be young, you can sleep whenever you want.

Several minutes passed quietly accompanied by even snoring.

"Da da da……"

A burst of hurried footsteps came from afar and approached quickly.

"Hongdou, the exam is about to start. Why don't you go and announce the start of the exam? What are you doing here?"

Morino Ibiki's voice came clearly along with the sound of footsteps, with a hint of doubt.

Everyone was eagerly waiting, but the examiner did not show up.

There was really no other way, so Morino Ibiki had to come and check it out himself.

He walked to the area where the scrolls were distributed and pulled aside the curtain that blocked the area.

"Hongdou, what are you doing..."

The scene before him surprised him:

Mitarashi Anko was lying on the ground, sleeping soundly.

"Is this hypnosis caused by the curse in the scroll?"

Morino Ibiki was filled with shock. As an experienced criminal investigation ninja, combined with the opened scroll next to him, the truth was already clear.

"What is this..."

He rubbed his temple helplessly.

As the examiner, Hongdou clearly knew the contents of the scroll, but still fell into the trap. It's really speechless.

Obviously, Hongdou was unable to preside over this round of exams, and the heavy responsibility naturally fell on his shoulders.

After instructing the logistics staff to take good care of the sleeping Red Bean, Morino Ibiki turned and left, ready to go into battle himself.

………………

At the edge of the Death Forest, another scene is unfolding.

"Hey, Youyue, you got the scroll of heaven."

Shinomiya Yutsuki's scroll was hung openly around her waist with no intention of covering it. Naruto caught this detail at a glance.

He shook his head, a hint of regret flashing across his face.

"How unlucky! We are also the Scroll of Heaven."

This exam requires each team to collect two scrolls of heaven and earth and reach the tower in the center of the forest within five days to pass.

There will inevitably be competition between teams with different scrolls.

Yuyue gently patted Naruto's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there will always be a chance to meet each other."

"When the time comes, I won't show mercy."

"Come on, I'm ready!"

The two of them were laughing and joking, attracting the attention of many onlookers.

The eyes of these candidates from other teams were all focused on Shigong Youyue, or more precisely, on the scroll around his waist.

Unlike others who carefully hid their scrolls for fear of revealing their scroll types, Youyue's behavior was extremely bold.

Before the assessment even started, Youyue had already been targeted by many teams holding the Scroll of Earth.

"Boss, this guy is holding the Heavenly Scroll, isn't this just right?"

The boy who was speaking had bronze skin and a strong body. Although he was only twelve years old, he was much taller than his peers.

He is a candidate from the Hidden Cloud Village, his name is Xi Huanshou.

The boss he mentioned, Yeyue Liuliang, came from the famous Yeyue clan in Yunyin Village.

Most of the Yeyue clan are ordinary, but Yeyue Liuliang is extremely talented and diligent. He mastered the Lightning Release Chakra mode at a young age.

He had a sturdy body, bronze skin, and angular muscles, like a moving iron tower.

They are exactly the team that the Raikage has high hopes for.

"Chong is right. This is a free chance to advance. It looks like this exam will be much easier than the last one."

The third person in the team, Xi Huanjing, said that he and Xi Huanchong were brothers.

The two shuddered at the thought of the last written test. They couldn't answer a single question!

In the end they had to hand in a blank paper, and fortunately they persevered on the last question and barely passed.

Under the expectant gazes of the two brothers, Yeyue Liuliang slowly spoke:

"You can go if you want, but don't blame me if anything goes wrong."

He folded his arms across his chest, his expression indifferent.

"Hey? Why, Boss?"

The two exchanged glances, their eyes full of astonishment.

These two brothers are obviously not particularly smart.

“Is this guy so powerful?

"Who is he?"

"I don't know either." Yeyue Liuliang said lightly.

"Uh... then how do you judge that he is very strong, Boss?"

"intuition."

The Xihuan brothers looked at each other in silence, a little confused.

Yeyue Liuliang continued:

"Although I don't know him, I know the blond boy next to him. That's Uzumaki Naruto, the Hokage's son."

"Can you imagine being a weakling hanging out with the son of the Hokage?"

"Since you can team up with me, you should understand this."

The two brothers suddenly realized, "That makes sense..."

"We understand, Boss. Let's change our target."

The Xihuan brothers nodded in agreement.

His eyes turned to the direction where Orochimaru was.

"I think those grass ninjas are easy to deal with. How powerful can someone from a small ninja village be?"

This time, Yeyue Liuliang did not object: "It's up to you."
