Naruto: All depends on Kyuubi C

In the forest of death, a masked figure advanced rapidly.

The examiner, who originally thought that if he met genin, could play tricks in front of them, turned around and ran away without any hesitation.

Because behind him, there was another bolt of lightning, shortening the distance between the two at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This Thunder Release Ninjutsu...is that Uchiha Sasuke!"

The expression on the former's mask became tense. As an Anbu, he naturally recognized this 'genin' from his own village who had fought against him through ninjutsu.

When he was in the Uchiha clan, although he was finally controlled by Hinata Hizatsu using his acupuncture points, he still remembered Uchiha Sasuke's fighting performance. He even received a knife from him in the melee for no apparent reason... ...

When he appeared in the examination room before, he was also shocked when he saw him and Hinata Hinata.

But then I thought about it, they are a team, and they only need one mask. There is still a high chance that I will not encounter the two of them... As for whoever encounters them, that person will be unlucky.

However, I didn’t expect that I would be the unlucky guy!

Having fought against him, I know very well that this boy's fighting ability is definitely not at the genin level, and he can even fight against veteran jounin!

When the only option was to escape, he really didn't have the confidence to escape from this fast and terrifying escape technique.

However, he is also an experienced Konoha Anbu who has carried out countless highly confidential and dangerous missions assigned by the Hokage!

Is it possible that it really could fall into the hands of a young boy?

At least it cannot fall into his hands twice!

He decided to divert trouble to the east!

With the understanding that the dead Taoist friend will not die the poor Taoist, the masked examiner went straight in the direction of his teammate he had seen before.

"This guy only needs to take off one mask at most to pass. I remember just seeing those guys hiding here... Where can they hide?"

"Ok?"

Covered by the Thunder Chakra, the Sharingan clearly captured the opponent's movements. Sasuke soon discovered that the opponent seemed to be looking for something, and his speed slowed down.

[Did he set a trap?Want to lure me there? 】

Sasuke's first reaction while moving at high speed was to take out his shuriken and throw it in the direction of the opponent's advance!

"Boom boom boom!"

"Click"

The three shurikens were nailed to the branch where the opponent was about to land, and at the moment of contact, the branch broke.

【Oops! 】

The feeling of weightlessness coming from under his feet made the mask examiner suddenly feel cold. Just when he was about to make a final struggle and use the tree trunk next to him to change direction during the fall, the lightning flashed across his face, and the mask on his face has been taken away.

The masked examiner, or rather the examiner who lost his mask, quickly raised his head after landing.

When he saw Uchiha Sasuke standing steadily on the tree trunk, holding a mask and looking at him, he only felt a bitter taste in his mouth: "You are so strong, even though you are so young..."

"It's over, hand over the scroll."

Sasuke was not prepared to chat with the examiner, so he appeared in front of the examiner.

"......Give."

As if he simply accepted his fate, the examiner shook his head, took out the scroll with human characters from his arms, and threw it towards Sasuke.

Sasuke caught the scroll and was about to go back to join his teammates when he was suddenly stopped by the examiner: "Wait, I have one more thing."

"Although you may not care, I still want to say thank you. Before, thank you for saving my colleagues and saving my life."

Sasuke was not surprised when he heard this and nodded to him.

After taking off the mask, he also recognized that the other party was indeed one of the ANBU who had fought with him when he was in the Uchiha clan.

"Why are you here as examiners for this exam? What is your mission?"

Sasuke asked.

"...No, actually..."

The examiner smiled bitterly, "This is not a test for you, but for us."

"Anbu members cannot expose their identities or leak information. We have violated the ANBU regulations, so we are destined to give up this identity and return to a normal life."

"That?"

"But we are not willing to give in! We were the first batch to be controlled. Not only did we cause so much trouble to the village, we also helped the guy deceive his companions...

In short, those of us are unwilling to give up our identity as ANBU and want to avenge our past humiliation.After careful consideration, several adults asked us to participate in this Chunin Exam. If we can investigate...Sorry, it is related to the mission and cannot be disclosed.As long as we can complete the mission, although we cannot retain our ANBU identity, we can at least wash away this stain before leaving. "

"Understandable."

Sasuke nodded, roughly understanding the other person's situation.

Naruto had mentioned it before.

When a weak-looking Jonin came to thank him, he specifically said that most of these Anbu who were willing to remain anonymous for the sake of the village were very loyal to the village.

He was a ninja who abandoned his past and glory for the sake of the village. Instead, he was manipulated and almost harmed the village and his companions.

If he was controlled in a certain mission and almost killed Naruto and Hinata, no matter who the other party was, he would never accept being manipulated.

"...But that's all in the past."

Looking at the mask in Sasuke's hand, the other person's eyes were full of loneliness.

Sasuke also understood something. The mask he took off meant the failure of his mission.

"Without strength, any purpose is delusional."

Sasuke thought for a while, and then said 'comfort'.

It's just that his comfort was somewhat abstract. Seeing the boy in front of him, who was at least 20 years younger than him, naturally accusing himself of his lack of strength, the examiner didn't have any temper at all.

After all, his skills are really inferior to others.

"Oh, that's right. I was so dizzy just now that I wanted to harm others... Just go ahead and leave me alone."

Sasuke looked at the other person's retreating back and said nothing more, preparing to go back and join his teammates.

He didn't know why, but he felt vaguely uneasy from just now until now.

[It is better to complete the scrolls that need to be collected as soon as possible and complete the exam]

However, just a few steps after Sasuke walked out, he was suddenly startled, and his expression suddenly changed!

Bloody smell!

Sasuke quickly turned around and saw that the examiner who was behind him just now was nowhere to be seen, and the air was filled with the smell of blood coming from the forest, and it was getting stronger!

"sand."

There was a sound of feet stepping on leaves on the muddy ground in Sasuke's ears. The other person did not hide his presence, and it also showed that something was slowly approaching him from inside.

"Don't play tricks, get out!"

Sasuke flipped over, and a kunai shot out forward!

However, the kunai thrown with this impeccable throwing technique was directly caught by two slender fingers.

Then a man who looked a little too feminine walked out of the woods and smiled at Sasuke.

It was Orochimaru after his disguise.
