Escape From Konoha

Vol 5 Chapter 67: to choose

Latest Website: In the dark underground palace, the air is filled with the smell of decay and dilapidation.

I don't know what time it is now, only a little light seeps in from the underground palace, and the range that can be seen is very narrow. But because of this, it has become a natural refuge.

Judging from the dilapidated traces of the underground palace, it has been destroyed by people, at least for decades.

In a secret room of the underground palace, the door has been cracked open, and a large number of irregular boulders are pressing down on the position of the door, blocking the door tightly, and not even a trace of light can be revealed.

In the room, Sakura took out a placed light to drive out the darkness in the room. The lighting equipment in the original room has been damaged and is in an unusable and abandoned state.

Judging from the furnishings of the room, it was originally a bedroom for people to rest, with beds, dressing tables, wardrobes and other furniture. However, because of the vandalism, the mirror of the dressing table was cracked, the wardrobe fell to the ground, and only the bed remained relatively intact.

A lot of dust has accumulated on the ground, and no one has cleaned it for a long time.

Sakura swept the dust off the bed, and asked Naruto to put Sasuke on the bed.

I saw Sasuke grabbing the clothes on his chest in pain with his palms in the process of unconscious drowsiness, and grasping tightly until the clothes on his chest were wrinkled, and there was no sign of letting go.

His face was very pale, as if he was having some kind of terrible nightmare, and while sweating profusely, he exhaled with difficulty. .

His sweat dripped down, and even the clothes on his shoulders were soaked.

On the side and back of Sasuke's neck, the eye-catching three-hook jade curse seal appeared. On the surface of the three black hook jade curse seals, there was a layer of lavender covering, which was exactly the same color as the different-color chakra that Sasuke unconsciously erupted from his body before. .

While Sakura was worried about Sasuke's safety, her brows were tightly knit together, her face was solemn.

"Sasuke...is he alright?"

Naruto didn't yell as usual, but asked softly.

Although he doesn't get along well with Sasuke at ordinary times, Naruto still agrees with Sasuke's character and strength, and he already regards Sasuke as his important companion in his heart.

However, no matter how anxious he is, it is useless, because he does not know medical ninjutsu, and now he can only rely on Sakura to save Sasuke.

"I have no idea."

Sakura lowered her head and said in a slightly remorseful tone.

"What? Can't it be treated with medical ninjutsu?"

Naruto froze for a moment.

Although he has never seen other medical ninjas, he also knows that Sakura's medical ninjutsu is superb, and even Kakashi has praised it more than once.

"Sasuke's state... doesn't seem to be caused by injury, but by some kind of curse."

Sakura had checked Sasuke's body, so it was clear that Sasuke's original injury was not very serious. The root of the problem was not Sasuke's own injury at all, but the three-hook jade curse mark on his neck.

"curse?"

"To put it simply, it is the spell seal technique. It is a very advanced ninjutsu. It is said that it is difficult for even the ninjutsu to master this advanced technique. Generally speaking, the effect of the spell seal technique is to restrain and control the enemy And the developed auxiliary technique..."

However, after checking Sasuke's body, Sakura found that the curse seal on Sasuke's body was different from the general seal spell.

In Sasuke's body, there is a mysterious chakra that is much stronger than his own chakra. This mysterious chakra has a strong vitality, and it is constantly eroding Sasuke's body and merging into Sasuke's body.

Although the fusion of such heterogeneous chakras will allow the ninja to gain powerful power, but...such a terrifying power that does not belong to oneself, once uncontrollable, it is likely to lead to death.

That's why Sakura was worried.

"Can't it be lifted?"

Naruto didn't know any spells and asked Sakura.

"This has gone beyond the range that the lower ninja can solve, and even the upper ninja may not be able to solve it."

Sakura replied.

Because the ability of the spell seal technique is very strange and unique, the difference between the seal technique and the technique system used is independent.

Before that, Sakura had never been exposed to the so-called spell seal technique.

Because the conditions for learning the Seal of Curse are very harsh, even among Jonin, only a very small number of ninjas can use it.

Only after becoming a Chunin can one be able to learn the basic spell seal technique.

It is a powerful technique with a very high threshold.

"Now what?"

"I can only help Sasuke relieve the pain, so that he can concentrate and resist the erosion of the heterogeneous Chakra in his body."

Sakura is very clear about the level of her medical ninjutsu. The current level of problems is definitely not something that a medical ninja of her level can solve.

"By the way, Naruto, is your injury okay?"

Sakura asked concerned.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with it, and I don't know what's going on, but suddenly I don't feel much pain in my body."

Naruto scratched his head, looking like he didn't know what was going on.

At first, I felt very painful in my chest, and even my ribs were kicked and broken by the man named Dashewan, but after a while, I didn't feel the pain anymore.

Naruto felt incredible.

Sakura looked at Naruto suspiciously, but she didn't fully believe Naruto's words, you know, he is one of the three powerful ninjas.

A casual attack is enough to easily kill a Chunin. Naruto directly kicked the opponent, logically speaking, at least it would end up with a serious injury.

Therefore, Sakura still checked Naruto's physical condition, and found that, as Naruto said, his injuries were almost healed.

This phenomenon made Sakura very puzzled and uncertain.

Although she knew that Naruto belonged to the kind of person with excellent physical ability, is it too abnormal for his physical recovery ability to be so strong?

"Actually, I can't say anything about it. When I was a child, someone hit my head with a stone, and it recovered automatically after a while."

Naruto faintly felt that this was related to a certain 'something' in his body.

It's just that he also knows that it's not advisable to tell Sakura too much about the 'things' in his body.

Most importantly, he was only suspicious, and there was no definite evidence that it was the demon fox in his body who did it.

"Okay, if you have any questions, call me anytime. I'm going to give Sasuke medicine to relieve his pain, please stand by and guard."

"Sakura, don't worry, leave this matter to me."

Naruto patted his chest, tried his best to get up, and then walked to a corner of the room, guarding there, staring at the direction of the stone-stacked door.

Seeing Naruto guarding the side, Sakura also nodded, took out a portable medical kit, and began to prepare medicines to relieve Sasuke's pain at the moment.

This is the only thing she can do now.

Not to mention that she does not know any spells, even if she is proficient in spells, if she does not know the nature of seals, she will only further stimulate the spells to run wild, and put Sasuke in a more dangerous situation.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the atmosphere in the room was very quiet, only Sasuke groaned in pain from time to time, murmuring the name "Itachi" vaguely in his mouth.

And when this name was mentioned, Sasuke's expression also became very weird, pain, nostalgia, hatred... All kinds of complicated expressions made Sasuke seem to be changing faces, making Sakura unable to tell which one is Sasuke's real appearance.

"Itachi?"

Naruto heard Sasuke murmuring the name non-stop, as if the name had a different meaning to Sasuke.

Sakura glanced at Naruto, and said in a low voice: "I don't know much about this. A few years ago, the Uchiha clan was exterminated. It is said that the murderer was Sasuke's brother, whose name was Itachi. He and we met before. Like the Orochimaru I arrived at, they are all dangerous S-rank rebels who defected to the village."

Hearing what Sakura said, Naruto fell silent.

Looking at Sasuke who was chanting the name 'Itachi' in pain, for some reason, he felt that Sasuke was not as annoying as before.

It turned out that he, like me, had a very tragic past. Thinking of this, Naruto's mood suddenly became complicated.

Behind Sasuke's glamorous appearance, there has always been a painful side that no one knows about.

"Sakura, I..."

Before Naruto finished speaking, there was a bang, and the whole room shook, interrupting Naruto's next words.

A large number of stones that were originally blocking the door suddenly exploded with a bang, causing smoke and dust to rise in the room, choking Naruto and Sakura coughing again and again.

"who!"

Naruto swept away the rushing dust, and stared vigilantly at the several figures that appeared at the door.

Because the place was full of smoke and dust, Naruto couldn't tell who was standing at the door.

Sakura also took out Kunai, guarding beside the bed board, preventing the next battle from possibly affecting Sasuke.

"Don't do it, it's me."

A familiar voice came out from the smoke, and a slender figure came out first, with silver-white hair, a mask on his face, and a short knife on his back. It was Kakashi.

"Ms. Kakashi!?"

Naruto made a sound in surprise, and then walked over.

"Wait, Naruto! It's the middle of the Chunin exam, Mr. Kakashi, who is the maintenance staff of the exam room, can't end at all, be careful not to be deceived!"

Sakura wasn't as impulsive as Naruto, instead she looked at Kakashi more vigilantly.

Hearing what Sakura said, Naruto, who was originally excited, also calmed down, took a step back, and looked at Kakashi vigilantly.

Indeed, as Sakura said, it is now during the second test of the Chunin Exam, and Kakashi, who is the person in charge of the test room, cannot enter the test room in person before the test is over.

"You're not Kakashi-sensei, tell me, who are you? Don't try to fool us!"

Naruto puts on a seal posture, and if the other party doesn't give a reasonable explanation, he will use the technique of shadow clone to solve the other party.

"That...although it was a bit sudden, but I am indeed right."

Kakashi explained.

"It's too slow for you to explain like this. To put it simply, because some unexpected situations were discovered in the examination room, we, the maintainers of the Chunin Exam, were specially approved to come in!"

Behind Kakashi, two more figures came over.

It was Kazuki.

Next to him was a young man with long red hair, a member of the Oni Ninja Jōnin who followed Kazuhime this time.

"Ah, you were from the country of waves..."

Naruto recognized Kazuki.

"We met again, yellow-haired boy. But this sentence is wrong, not only in the country of wave, but also met in Konoha before. But now is not the time to talk about these, we need to learn about the situation from you."

Because of time constraints, Yi Ji did not plan to reminisce with Naruto, but went straight to the topic.

"Condition?"

Sakura frowned.

"That's right, we discovered the Konoha S-class rebellious Ninja Orochimaru, who lurked into the examination room under the neglect of the peripheral personnel of the examination room. We maintenance personnel came in to deal with this matter. But depending on the situation, that guy Orochimaru They should have already retreated. Originally, I wanted to find him for a new Kusanagi sword."

Yi Ji put her hand on the hilt of the saber at her waist, and smiled softly.

"However, how are you going to prove that you are not the other candidates who came here to lie to us with the transfiguration technique?"

Sakura still didn't let go of her guard.

Although Naruto seems to have a little friendship with Kazuki, she still can't trust these people in front of her.

Kakashi looked at Kakashi, Kakashi scratched his head helplessly, and said, "Then let me tell you an important secret that only our seventh class knows."

Hearing this, Naruto and Sakura suddenly became curious.

If the other party can really tell the secret that only Class 7 knows, it can indeed prove that the identities of Kakashi and others are real.

Kakashi coughed, glanced at Ichihime, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You should remember that during the first survival exercise, Naruto's **** was stabbed by me..."

What happened next, Kakashi really couldn't continue, he believed that this secret was enough to earn Naruto and Sakura's trust in him.

"..."

"..."

Naruto and Sakura were stunned on the spot, falling into a strangely quiet state.

"What kind of secret is this! Damn it, I'm going to kill you!"

After Naruto was silent, he suddenly became furious, as if he felt a dull pain in his buttocks again.

After finally ending the unbearable past, now Kakashi brought it up, or brought it up in front of outsiders, and let Naruto kill Kakashi.

"Naruto, calm down, the person in front of you is indeed Mr. Kakashi!"

Sakura stopped Naruto's impulse.

Although Kakashi's method of proof is a bit different, Kakashi did do it when he stabbed Naruto's ass. Even thinking about it now, Sakura still remembers it fresh.

While holding Naruto, he was also trying to hold back his laughter, not to let it out.

"Sakura is right, and I am here to prove that my identity is real, not to deceive you."

"But...but you don't need to say such a thing to prove it? Can you just say that it's okay to kill for a thousand years?"

"I'm afraid I'm not specific enough, and you won't believe me."

Kakashi spread his hands helplessly.

Even so, Naruto was still a little uneasy.

"You Konoha's teacher-student relationship is really complicated, so can we prove our identities now?"

Ichiki asked.

"Yes, sorry for doubting you so much before."

Sakura bowed down and apologized.

"You don't need to do this, you did a good job, Sakura. As a ninja, you must always be vigilant and careful. Even when facing acquaintances."

Kakashi did not blame Sakura, but praised Sakura's behavior.

Only Naruto stood aside sullenly, but he also knew that now was not the time to lose his temper.

"So, Kakashi-sensei, are you here for Orochimaru?"

Sakura asked.

"Yes, we have received information that Orochimaru broke into the examination room for some purpose. Judging by your appearance, you should have encountered him before. I want to know what happened from you."

Kakashi glanced at Sasuke lying on the bed, and said softly.

"OK."

Sakura also looked worriedly at Sasuke lying on the bed, and began to tell the whole process of her team's encounter with Orochimaru.

And also explained to Kakashi and others the situation of the curse mark on Sasuke.

"Curse seal? Speaking of which, in the past, the military of our ghost country also captured some experimental subjects of Orochimaru, and traces of the spell seal technique were found on those experimental subjects."

Kazuki walked to the bed and looked down at the curse mark on the back of Sasuke's neck.

It is very similar to the pattern of the Sangouyu Sharingan, but the power it contains is completely different.

"Is there a solution for that?"

Sakura asked.

Ichihime didn't speak, but looked at the red-haired Jonin who followed.

The red-haired Shinobi came over, checked Sasuke, shook his head slightly and said, "I can temporarily suppress the power of the curse mark, but there is no way to solve it once and for all. This is beyond my ability. If you want to solve it once and for all, I am afraid that Master Baishi will need to take action in person."

"Then, in other words, just go to the 'Master Shiraishi' you mentioned?"

There was hope in Sakura's eyes.

"Sakura."

Kakashi walked over with a serious face.

Sakura glanced at Kakashi blankly, not knowing why Kakashi called her to stop him.

"My old man has so much to do, so he doesn't have the time to pay attention to such trivial matters. What's more, this is an internal matter of your Konoha, and the Kingdom of Ghosts has no reason to get involved. Otherwise, your third-generation lord will have something to say again."

Yiji said.

"Why is this? Sasuke was killed by Orochimaru because of the negligence of the maintenance staff..."

Sakura wanted to argue with reason.

"The second exam is not managed by the kingdom of ghosts. Even if there is an uncontrollable accident during the exam, it is Shayin who bears the main responsibility, and has nothing to do with our kingdom of ghosts. Don't get the order of things wrong."

Yiji said lightly.

Sakura wanted to say something else, but Kakashi patted her on the shoulder to stop her from speaking.

"Okay, Sakura, what she said is right, this is not the responsibility of the Ghost Kingdom. Now I will give you two choices."

"Two choices?"

Sakura questioned.

"First, you give up the exam and wait to prepare for the exam next year."

"What!?"

Before Sakura could speak, Naruto couldn't sit still.

It’s hard to come to this point, how can I give up the exam?

Naruto was the first to disagree with Kakashi's suggestion.

Ignoring Naruto's jumping reaction, Kakashi continued: "The second option, you continue the exam. But if you take Sasuke with you, it may cause Sasuke to be seriously injured and die, or it may cause Sasuke to drag you down. In the next battle, you will fall into an unfavorable situation, and your entire army will be wiped out."

After saying the second choice, Naruto also calmed down a little this time, with a blank look in his eyes.

True, he was desperate to pass the Chunin Exams.

But as Kakashi said, Sasuke's current situation is very bad.

Choosing to continue the exam means that Sasuke will become the oil bottle in the team, his life is in danger at any time, and it will also lead to the annihilation of the entire team.

This is also something Naruto can't stand.

"The choice is up to you, how you choose is up to you."

Kakashi said calmly.

Sakura fell silent, she was more inclined to the second option - to give up the exam.

Chunin exams are held every year, but you only have one life.

Under such adverse circumstances, there is no need to risk your life to gamble.

However, this is only her personal opinion. As the team's temporary captain, she also needs to respect Naruto's ideas.

However, the expression on Naruto's face was very complicated. After struggling for about ten seconds, Naruto exhaled and his expression calmed down.

"Mr. Kakashi, you once said that we are a whole, right? We must respect and value the lives of our companions at all times."

"Yes. But tasks are also very important for ninjas. For you, the Chunin Exam is a task that must be completed."

Kakashi stared at Naruto.

"That's the case, the current situation does not allow us to have both..."

Naruto is also very unwilling in his heart, and knows the rules of ninjas.

Because the first exam has already explained the importance of missions to a ninja.

Abandoning the mission is tantamount to giving up the dignity of the ninja.

Naruto didn't blame this act of going against his own will, the only thing he felt unwilling to do was hate his own lack of strength.

If he was strong enough, he wouldn't need to make such a difficult choice.

But right now, a decision must be made.

Naruto sighed, raised his palm and said, "Mr. Kakashi, I choose second..."

However, a sudden voice came in:

"I choose to continue the exam."

Calm, cold, and full of firmness.

Everyone looked at the source of the sound. Sasuke woke up at some point, and was sitting on the bed with his arms propped up, his eyes were blood red, and two black goblins appeared in each Sharingan, which looked abnormal. mystery.

Has it evolved to the Ergouyu form? interesting. Seeing that Sasuke's Sharingan has evolved from one gouyu to two gouyu, Yiji twitched his mouth slightly.

It seems that the ninjas of the ghost country will meet their opponents this time.

"Sasuke!?"

Naruto and Sakura looked at Sasuke who woke up in surprise.

"Sorry for worrying you two, and... Naruto, thank you."

Sasuke said it awkwardly.

Just now he heard the conversation between Naruto and Kakashi clearly, and it is very clear what choice Naruto will make.

I also understand why Naruto made such a choice.

"Uh, it's okay, you just need to wake up."

Being thanked by Sasuke, Naruto scratched his head a little bit at a loss, he had never seen such a Sasuke, he didn't know how to face it.

"Um."

After Sasuke thanked Naruto, he covered his feverish neck with his palm, where the curse mark was located.

He said to Kakashi: "Kakashi, next we choose to continue the exam. This is my answer."

"But, Sasuke you..."

Sakura wanted to say something, but Sasuke said, "Don't worry, Sakura, I won't force myself. I am very aware of my current state. For me now, the curse seal is not a bad thing. I have found it. It does the trick."

Sasuke's tone was full of confidence.

Sakura didn't speak anymore, she just kept her worries in her heart.

"Is it okay now, Kakashi?"

Sasuke looked directly at Kakashi.

"You are still the same, and you like to push yourself. But seeing that you are fine, I am relieved."

Speaking of which, Kakashi looked at Kazuki, and said: "Since there is nothing wrong here, let's go, Maki Shangren, we still need to report the situation here."

"It's up to you. As long as it doesn't affect the progress of the third exam, there is no problem for me."

Ichiki shrugged her shoulders and answered.

Kakashi nodded, glanced at Sasuke and the others, then turned and left.

"Then, I wish you a smooth pass in the exam. As a ninja, it should be very interesting for you then."

Kazuhime smiled, and turned around and left with the red-haired Oni no Kunijou, not dragging his feet at all.

After Kazuhime and the others left, Sasuke relaxed his tense nerves, sat on the bed, frowned, as if in pain.

But soon, this pain was suppressed by Sasuke, and his expression returned to normal.

"Sasuke, are you really alright?"

Seeing that Sasuke's body seemed to be in some inconvenience, Sakura thought that Sasuke was trying to hold on.

Sasuke still shook his head and said, "No problem, my condition is better than ever. Instead of worrying about my body, let's think about how to pass the exam next."

His body is not as bad as Sakura imagined.

Although the curse seal did have some negative effects on his body, as long as the negative influence is suppressed, then not only will the curse seal not become a drag, but it will also become a huge boost to his strength.

"There is also that guy named Orochimaru. Sooner or later, I will learn about Itachi from him, even if he uses violent means."

Sasuke's tone was extremely firm.

Orochimaru mentioned Itachi's tone, obviously acquainted with Itachi.

In addition, both of them are Konoha's rebels~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Presumably after defecting, the two of them probably had some communication.

In this way, if you want to know about Itachi, Orochimaru is a good breakthrough.

Sasuke has decided that even if Orochimaru doesn't come to him in the future, he will go to find Orochimaru.

Before that, passing the Chunin exam and becoming a Chunin is the top priority.

Because of the rise in the level of the ninja, the authority in the village will become more and more powerful. When it comes to dealing with Itachi, he can also get some support from the village.

Therefore, for Sasuke, there is only one way to go in this Chunin exam from the beginning to the end, and that is to win the exam and defeat all the powerful enemies that appear in front of him!

Similarly, just to revitalize Konoha's Uchiha in the future, he must also upgrade his ninja class as soon as possible.

Chunin is just a starting point, not his end.
