Escape From Konoha

It rained continuously.

The atmosphere inside the tower seemed very quiet.

There were light but clear footsteps in the corridor, and when they walked to the door of a room, they knocked on the door three times, and a male voice came from inside the room:

"Is it Xiaonan? Come in."

With the permission of the people in the house, Xiao Nan turned the doorknob and opened the door.

Nagato was the only person in the room. The other person seemed to have just finished a nap. His hairstyle was slightly disheveled, and he was only wearing a long-sleeved shirt and gray trousers. Akatsuki's uniform was casually placed on the hanger beside him, and he didn't get up.

"You seem to be very tired recently, Nagato, are you feeling unwell?"

Xiaonan asked with concern.

As the core of Yuyin, any problems with Nagato are put first in Xiaonan's heart, even more important than his own life. .

"It doesn't matter. It's just that I need to rest recently because of repairing the golem and over-cultivation. I will pay attention to my body next."

Nagato shook his head, signaling Xiaonan not to worry about him.

Practicing Yin Yang Dun, also fused with the cells of the first generation of Hokage Mu Dun. Only by physical strength, there are few ninjas in the ninja world that can compare with him.

This level of fatigue can be recovered after a short rest.

"Don't force yourself."

Xiao Nan nodded, and after saying this, he did not dwell on the topic, but reported a message to Nagato:

"Itachi and Kisame are back."

Nagato paused slightly in picking up his coat and uniform, turned his head, and asked:

"What about Four Tails?"

"The operation was very successful. Four-tailed Jinchuriki Laozi was successfully brought back by the two of them, and he is imprisoned in the empty room next to 'Pain'."

Konan replied.

"It seems that Danzo didn't add oil and vinegar to this cooperation, which saved a lot of trouble."

Nagato seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

This time Akatsuki organized the capture of Four Tails, and Danzo's roots also contributed to it.

Without the clues and information provided by Danzō Genbu to the Akatsuki organization, it would be far from enough to capture the Four-Tails Jinchuriki who was under surveillance by Iwagakure.

After the five-tailed renzhuli disappeared a few years ago, Yanyin Village strengthened the control and management of the only remaining four-tailed renzhuli in the village. Even though Nagato is full of confidence in the strength of Itachi and Kisame, but there are only two of them, and they want to have a head-on conflict with the huge Ninja Village organization of Yanyin Village, that would be too underestimating the background of these great powers.

For decades, the Land of Rain has struggled to survive between the three great powers of fire, earth, and wind. Nagato is well aware of the military power of these great powers.

Fortunately, the joint Zhongnin exam involved part of the attention of Yanyin Village, coupled with the secret activity of the roots, which provided reliable information clues about the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, as long as Danzo did not falsify in this transaction Therefore, the Xiao organization's capture of the four-tailed Jinzhu Li Laozi is a certainty.

"Danzo is plotting the position of the fifth generation of Hokage. He doesn't want to make troubles at this time. Besides, he is not young. If you miss this time, you will never have the opportunity to become Hokage again."

"Anyway, the Four Tails are in your hands now, so hurry up and seal them up, or things will change if it's too late."

Nagato put on his coat and said to Xiaonan.

"Your body..."

"Don't worry, it doesn't take me much chakra to seal a tailed beast. Besides, I have the help of other members. Sealing the tailed beast as soon as possible will give me a lot of peace of mind here."

Nagato pointed to his heart.

As long as the tailed beast is not sealed in the container of the outsider golem, which holds the tailed beast, there is a risk of being taken away one day.

But once the tailed beast enters the golem of the outer way, in the entire ninja world, except for him who has the eyes of reincarnation, there is no second person who can let the tailed beast escape from the golem of the outer way and regain freedom.

"I see."

"Then let's go to the preparations, call all the members back, and seal the tailed beast."

Xiao Nan nodded, and was about to turn around and leave the room when he suddenly remembered something and said to Nagato: "By the way, that guy Orochimaru seems to have gone to the Land of Wind, should we call him back?"

"The Kingdom of the Wind?"

Nagato frowned, then relaxed.

"If I remember correctly, according to the news released by the big country, the country of the wind is the second test venue for the joint Chunin test."

"Yes, the test site is the famous 'Desert of Demons' in the Land of Winds. It is said that there was once an ancient city, and even today, part of the ancient city remains. Could it be said that Orochimaru is Are you looking for something there?"

Xiao Nan guessed.

Orochimaru is a ninja who is keen on self-interest and thoroughly implements the joy of exploring the unknown. The ruins of the Kingdom of Wind with a long history like the "Desert of Demons" are very suitable as Orochimaru's hunting targets.

"You're wrong, Xiaonan, Mr. Orochimaru is not interested in the ruins in the Demon Desert. It is estimated that he has already explored the places with weak defenses. The reason why he went there is because he was among the candidates. Desperately want the 'thing'."

"thing?"

Xiao Nan frowned.

"Mr. Orochimaru seems to have a deep grudge against the defeat at Itachi's hands. Although he has been obsessed with the study of longevity over the years, he has never given up on the study of sharing eyes. The idea of ​​revenge against Itachi, It has become an obsession in his heart."

Especially after knowing the connection between Sharingan and Samsarayan, Nagato knew that Orochimaru had developed a stronger ambition in his heart.

And this kind of ambition will drive Orochimaru to take action involuntarily.

Therefore, in Nagato's view, Orochimaru has only one purpose to go to the Desert of Demons in this special period—

"Uchiha Sasuke! Mr. Orochimaru wants to get Uchiha Sasuke's Sharingan, and then get Itachi's Sharingan, and combine two pairs of Sharingan with blood relationship to form a higher-level Sharingan."

Nagato explained the purpose of Orochimaru going to the Desert of Demons.

"Just leave him alone?"

Xiaonan asked.

Nagato knows Konan's worries, and at the same time, because of Yahiko's past, he has always been worried about Orochimaru's joining Akatsuki.

If you want to say that in the Xiao organization, who is the most wary of Dashewan, it is undoubtedly Xiaonan.

"Let him go, this is Mr. Oshemaru's personal matter, and I will not interfere. Moreover, the stronger he is, it is also a good thing for us. Because I don't think Itachi can defeat Uchiha Ruri Uchiha Ruri is not only the holder of Kaleidoscope Sharingan, but also proficient in fairy art. The first Hokage who defeated Madara is also a ninja who can use fairy art. It is an extremely terrifying and mysterious power, which is different from conventional art. .”

Nagato expressed his opinion.

"Is that so? However, Sasuke Uchiha must also awaken the Kaleidoscope Sharingan to make this possible."

"That depends on Mr. Orochimaru's own means. Since he didn't inform this side, it means that he himself doesn't want the Akatsuki organization to intervene. This is his personal matter. If I intervene in the past, it would be too unreasonable. .”

"I hope he won't make a big fuss by then. But he's really going to the Land of Winds at such a critical time."

Xiaonan hates Orochimaru, but he has to agree that there can't be any accidents in Orochimaru now.

"Because this is the only chance for him to directly contact Uchiha Sasuke. When the third exam opens and the examinees go to the country of ghosts, he will never have the chance to attack Uchiha Sasuke again."

Unlike the Land of Fire and the Land of Winds, where there are huge gaps in national defense capabilities, the Land of Demons has a very strong defense system. If Orochimaru goes there, there is no doubt that there is no difference between a sheep and a tiger, and it is no different from seeking death.

Bai Jue, who is extremely capable of infiltrating, has left an unknown number of bones in the underground of the ghost country over the years, and even now he can't get any splashes out.

Over time, Nagato completely gave up on the matter of spying on the country of ghosts.

With this heretical method, there is no way to shake the internal stability of the ghost country, it will only consume one's own strength for no reason, and the gain outweighs the loss.

"It seems to be the case. Then I will set up the sealing site now, but if you feel that your body is too weak, you can postpone the sealing until tomorrow."

After Xiao Nan said this, he left the room without delay.

After Xiaonan left, Nagato's mind was no longer with Orochimaru.

For him, the strengthening of Orochimaru's strength is far less important than the fact that his own strength has become stronger.

The countless sacrifices made by his companions in the Land of Rain over the years awakened the truth he recognized in his heart, and made him truly realize that in the diplomacy between countries, the stronger party will always dominate.

Although he is a collaborator with Orochimaru, he will not put his real hope on an outsider who is not his own.

Asking others is better than asking yourself.

Only when you become stronger can you gain the right to speak internationally.

If Orochimaru threatens the safety of the Rain Country, even if it is a collaborator, he will mercilessly take action and completely obliterate it.

Peace in the Land of Rain can only be obtained by force.

Any compromise and concession will only fuel the arrogance of the enemy and make our own people suffer oppression and bullying.

As for the so-called world peace, that is the peace of the country of rain, something that needs to be considered only after it becomes stronger.

So in a way, he agrees with a certain man's approach.

Strengthen the strength of your own country first, and then consider other countries' affairs after you have accumulated enough power.

This is a gradual process. Absolutely no inversions and mistakes can occur.

Therefore, the peace he wants to establish can only be world peace with the Kingdom of Rain as the core of the era. Rather than the peace dominated by the country of fire, the country of earth, the country of thunder and so on.

Nagato can no longer let himself become naive on such an issue that concerns the life and death of his own country.

"Qianba Shiraishi...Compared to those big countries, you and the country of ghosts are the most terrifying enemies on the road to "peace" in the country of rain!"

The peace of the ghost country is not the peace of the rain country.

Similarly, the peaceful era with the Kingdom of Rain at its core is not the peace that the Kingdom of Ghosts wants.

Every sovereignty, every interest, must be steadfast and fight to the end.

◎

the second day.

Hundreds of examinees who rested for one night in the desert fortress have adjusted their state to the best, and their physical strength and chakra have also returned to their peak state.

When I woke up in the morning, every face was filled with a look of confidence.

It took a total of half an hour to get up at five o'clock, wash and dress, and have breakfast in the restaurant.

At 5:30, under the command of Jonin chief examiner Ma Ji, I came to the inner gate of the desert fortress.

After the black iron city gate of the fortress on the inside was opened, only a tall city wall that could not be seen was seen, forming a huge circular sand dune territory on the desert.

The terrain of this sand dune territory is undulating, and a large amount of weathered sandstone is randomly scattered without rules.

In the hazy wind and sand in the distance, you can still vaguely see the black shadows of ruins similar to towns, which are ancient ruins that have been abandoned for a long time.

Devil's desert.

is the name of the area.

The degree of danger in this desert area, even the ninja of Sand Hidden Village, would feel shuddering.

It is said that it is also very difficult for Chunin to pass through such an extremely dangerous area without injury.

Only Jonin can truly traverse through such a dangerous environment without injury.

When we came to the sandy ground where the wind was blowing, the sky was dim and gloomy, and the temperature in the air was not high, but a little cold, but the candidates were all energetic, and none of them showed that they were drowsy.

In order to meet the second exam this morning, they all rested early last night to recharge their energy.

Ma Ji and a group of powerful Ninjas stood in front of the examinees. In front of them, there was a table and chairs with pens and a pile of paperwork on the table.

Maji walked out of the queue of jounin, glanced at the energetic candidates, coughed, and said in a loud voice: "This is the desert of demons, and it is also the place where the second exam will be held later. The desert The scope of the examination is bounded by the walls on all sides. If any candidate moves beyond the city wall at that time, he will be disqualified from the exam immediately."

The candidates once again looked at the tall circular wall surrounding the desert area. Because they couldn't see the edge at a glance, they couldn't estimate the specific extent of the Demon Desert.

Asuka looked at Cai, Cai opened his white eyes, and shook his head at Asuka, even with his white eyes, he couldn't fully see the specific scope of the Devil's Desert. Moreover, the range observed by Baiyan is probably only a small part of the desert of magic.

The Land of Winds is vast and sparsely populated. Even though a piece of land was ceded to the Kingdom of Ghosts a few years ago, the area of ​​the preserved land now ranks among the largest countries, and it can also be ranked in the forefront.

The Devil's Desert is a special area used by Hidden Sand Village to test the ability to endure. The scope of the venue will not be smaller than the famous Death Forest in Muye Village. In terms of its area, it may even exceed Konoha's Death Forest.

The Death Forest has a radius of ten kilometers and a diameter of twenty kilometers. If the Devil's Desert exceeds this range, not to mention more than a hundred candidates, twice as many candidates will have enough room to play in this desert.

"The rules of the exam are very simple. I have two scrolls here, which are divided into 'Heaven' and 'Earth'. You have a total of forty-six groups, of which twenty-three groups will be assigned to the Sky Scroll, and the other twenty-three Each team will be assigned the scrolls of the earth. What you, as candidates, have to do is to **** the scrolls of the other team. There is no limit to the means. As long as you have both the scrolls of heaven and earth, and then arrive at the central control tower of the desert of demons, you are considered qualified , get a ticket for the third exam."

The rules are simple and easy to understand,

If the first exam involved the participation of the examiner, then the second exam completely left the space for the candidates to develop themselves.

Unless it is a special case, the examiners will not appear to interfere with the examination.

And the way of unlimited means also means that this is a very cruel knockout match, which will be accompanied by death.

As the chief examiner, Markey naturally noticed this.

"Because there is a risk of death, you have to sign an agreement here, saying that any accidents during the exam will be borne by yourself, and then we will distribute scrolls to you here. If you don't sign this agreement, you will You can return to your own village directly without taking the second test."

Markey took a quick glance at the candidates and saw that no one questioned his words, and no one expressed their unwillingness to sign the agreement.

After finally passing the first exam, even if there was a risk of death in the second exam, they still had the attitude of giving it a try.

As elites, they bear not only their own destiny, but also the future of the country and the village.

There cannot be any retreat here, even in the face of the threat of death.

"Excuse me, Chief Examiner Jonin, is there a time limit for the second exam?"

It was Shikamaru who asked the question, and he hoped to get more information from it, which is also a topic of concern to many candidates.

Markey glanced at him and replied: "There is a time limit. There are seventy-two hours in total for the second exam. After this time, even if you get all the scrolls and come to the control tower in the center, it will be considered a failure." .”

"So, what about food and water?"

Shikamaru asked again.

He asked in the cafeteria last night that candidates were not allowed to get extra food and water from the cafeteria.

Therefore, he had a guess that food and water could not be prepared in advance.

And Markey's words also verified his conjecture, and said indifferently: "You are already real ninjas, and the cruel world will not always spoil you. Within seventy-two hours, all the food and water for you Solve in the desert. In order to take care of you, there are some water sources in this desert that can quench your thirst. There are also a large number of alien creatures from which you can get meat. But remember, those water sources may exist and ninjas cannot resist The viruses and those alien creatures also have powerful strength, and if you deal with them carefully, you will die."

Markey's words made many candidates look embarrassed.

Not only do you have to face raids from the rest of the candidates, but you also have to deal with desert creatures that might attack you. And those water sources may have viruses and need to be treated before drinking.

Not only that, but the high temperature environment during the day will make people suffer.

This is simply an extremely difficult battle for survival.

It's really bad.

"Any question?"

Maki looked at Shikamaru.

"there is none left."

Shikamaru shook his head and stepped back.

"Then, start signing now, and then the scrolls will be distributed to you."

Mackey ordered.

So the examinees started to line up, and began to sign their names on the paperwork on the table in an orderly manner.

After signing, it was already ten minutes later.

Everyone held the agreement and looked at Markey.

Markey continued: "Next, we will arrange for you to go to different starting points, where you will get scrolls belonging to your own group."

Markey's words made Asuka frowned.

He originally wanted Cai to use his white eyes to investigate the distribution of the scrolls. After all, if he didn't prepare in advance, the same scrolls might be strong enough, which was a waste of time.

And Markey did this, obviously so that each group did not know what the scrolls of the other groups were.

This method will lead to more intense fighting among candidates.

Unlike the first exam, the difficulty of the second exam increased dramatically. In contrast, the first exam was completely a house-playing game, not even a warm-up.

But no matter how meaningful it is, in this exam, Markey made the biggest rules, and they are also the rules that every candidate must abide by.

Once violated, it will face the risk of being eliminated.

With the agreement in hand, all forty-six groups were dispersed, and each group headed to a different starting point under the leadership of a Sand Yin Chunin.

About an hour later, the group of the Asuka three people followed Sand Yin Chunin to a tall fence.

There was also a Sand Hidden Chunin waiting there, holding a scroll in his hand, and the word 'Heaven' was clearly exposed on the scroll.

Next to it, there is a radio device for communication.

The bulky size, this type of radio is relatively old-fashioned, but it is enough for long-distance communication.

On the radio device, a colorful pattern in the style of an aster flower is also imprinted.

Asuka, the captain, received the scroll of 'Heaven' from this Sand Yin Chunin.

According to the exam rules, within three days, you have to get a scroll of 'Earth', and take two scrolls of heaven and earth, and go to the control tower in the center to pass the level.

"Excuse me, can I start the exam now?"

Asuka asked.

The Sagakure Chunin who had been waiting here from the beginning looked at the watch on his wrist and shook his head.

"It's 6:50 now, and there are still ten minutes before the exam starts. Then the exam will last until seven o'clock in the morning of the fourth day."

"Can I ask, how far is it from the control tower in the center?"

Asuka asked again.

Sand Yin Chuen took a look at Asuka, especially when he saw the forehead guard on the other's forehead, he felt very dazzling.

But considering that this is the joint Chunin exam, it is not a good time to resolve personal grievances, and it is too rude, which will make people feel that Shayin Village is small, so he had no choice but to answer lukewarmly:

"It's about fifteen kilometers from here to the central control tower."

fifteen kilometers? Asuka frowned tightly.

It seems small, but considering that the chakra of Cai and Xianglin is not unlimited supply, it is impossible to turn on the white eyes and perception ninjutsu all the time, because in order to deal with possible crises, it is necessary to save chakra as much as possible. Therefore, the timing of using perception ninjutsu and white eyes must be strictly controlled to avoid insufficient chakra supply during battles.

Time passed by one minute and one second, and ten minutes passed quickly. At seven o'clock, the sun had come out, and the air began to convey a stuffy atmosphere.

"The exam time has started, the three of you can act now."

Sand Yin Chunin said to the Asuka three.

Without any hesitation, the moment Sand Yin Zhongren finished speaking, the figures of the three Asuka disappeared from the spot immediately.

When it reappeared, it was already running quickly on the sandy ground, galloping forward.

"During the exam, the water source will be the most important strategic material. Cai, open your eyes and look for the area where the water source appears. Let's go there and wait!"

The purpose of the bird is very clear.

Since it is impossible to prepare water and food in advance, during the exam, in order to ensure the best condition of the body, obtaining enough water and food is a difficult problem that candidates must face.

Especially water source ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ has higher priority than food.

Then, just wait for the prey to come automatically in a place with sufficient water in advance.

Therefore, the moment the exam started, the three of them turned the speed to the maximum, found the water source area as quickly as possible, prepared traps in advance, and waited for the prey to be caught.

"What about the rest of the group? Do you want to make contact?"

Xianglin asked.

"Not for the time being. Now is not the time to think about them. Everything will be discussed after we get the Earth Scroll we need."

Although helping colleagues in the military, in Asuka's view, it is a matter of course. But whether the time of this competition is long or short, helping the other teams to clear the level is a question that should be considered only when your own team clears the level.

Now I am a bit overwhelmed, so first of all, ensuring that my group clears the customs is the highest priority task.
