A convenience store opened in Naruto

Chapter 122 The exam is about to begin

After Hinata repeatedly waved her hands to indicate that she was full, everyone started to pack up. After the table was put back in place and the tableware was put away, everyone did not leave and started playing games again under the leadership of Naruto.

Ye Feng did not participate, but returned to the door of the first floor, lay down in the sun, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery passing by.

Later, as night was about to fall, everyone walked out of the store and went home.

It was obvious that Inuzuka Kiba was reluctant to leave, probably because he couldn't bear to leave the games here. Shikamaru was the same. He didn't leave the second-floor balcony that afternoon. He found two stools, one to sit on and one to rest his legs on, and leaned against the sliding door. He slept for the whole afternoon with the warm sun. The only drawback was that the sound of several people playing games in the living room made him feel a little noisy.

Shikamaru felt that this was heaven, the place of his dreams. He shuttled between the first and second floors. Every time he went up to the second floor, he would carry a bunch of snacks, eat them, and then come down again, repeating this process over and over again.

As the heir of the Akimichi clan, his family's barbecue restaurant business is spread all over Konoha. He is not a man short of money. He packs snacks for everyone for the whole afternoon.

It was when he saw Choji that Ye Feng remembered something. He had secretly reached an agreement with Choji. Choji gave Ye Feng a barbecue restaurant discount card. Ye Feng could enjoy discounts at any barbecue restaurant opened by the Akimichi family in Konoha.

Ye Feng also gave Shikamaru a convenience store discount coupon, which allows Shikamaru to enjoy discounts on any snack items displayed on the first floor.

Considering that one is barbecue and the other is snacks, the values ​​are not proportional, so the card that Ye Feng gave to Dingci has a relatively large discount. Overall, both parties did not lose out.

In the meantime, Kakashi came back with a swelling on his face, and he didn't know who hit him.

He did not stay long. After informing everyone of the specific time and location of the second exam, he left in a hurry to find out about Danzo.

So everyone felt at ease playing in Ye Feng's shop for the whole afternoon. Kakashi also specifically asked everyone to relax and get their spirits back in order to face tomorrow's exam.

It was completely dark, but the number of people on the street did not decrease. The brightly lit streets meant that their shopping trips were not greatly affected.

The exam is approaching the middle of the term and there is still some time before the end. It is the busiest time now. Many people have waited until now just to be able to enter the venue to watch the third exam. They will not leave until the third exam begins.

It’s just as well that they don’t leave. Ye Feng wishes they didn’t leave so that his business could get better and better.

It was not until the crowds on the street gradually dispersed and it was early morning that Ye Feng finished his business for the day. He happily put the money into the cash register, took a shower, and went to bed.

After cleaning up the display table, the shadow clones disbanded and returned to Naruto's original body. Their return did not "wake up" the sleeping Naruto.

Naruto and the others had gone to bed a long time ago. In order to be in a better state of mind for the second exam, they all went to bed early.

The next morning, before Ye Feng got up, Naruto and Sasuke went to the meeting place with Sakura who had come with them. They ate breakfast while walking on the road, because they wanted to go early and check the surrounding environment in advance.

Of course, before leaving, Naruto did not forget to leave a clone behind, which turned into the appearance of a young lady and set up a stall to sell goods at the door.

So, while Ye Feng was still sleeping, his shop had already started business.

Fortunately, they have gotten used to it in the past few days. It is impossible for Ye Feng to open the door after waking up. Then who knows how long they will have to wait.

After all, sometimes even Ye Feng himself didn’t know when he would be able to get up. He didn’t set an alarm clock or anything, and he usually just slept until he woke up naturally.

When it comes to dividends, the earlier you open the door, the more money you can get. In this regard, Naruto is much more proactive than Ye Feng.

Back to the topic, when Naruto and the other two arrived at the gathering place, they found that they were not the first to arrive. The other few of the Twelve Young Strongmen were also present. Not only that, there were also many other candidates who came.

They all had the same idea, which was to check out the exam environment in advance.

Unfortunately, their trip was in vain as the examination room was surrounded by barbed wire and there were invigilators on duty at the entrance, which made their plans go awry.

Several invigilators were standing guard at the door, all with smiles on their faces; they had expected this to happen.

It's just a barbed wire fence. Although there is a formation on it to prevent the beasts in the Death Forest from coming out, it can't stop people who want to get in.

Under normal circumstances, with the warnings from the village, ordinary people would not approach this place, but during the exam period, it is inevitable that some candidates will take risks and try to take shortcuts.

There have been similar precedents in the past.

They are here to prevent those candidates from "straying in".

Of course, guarding the door wouldn't have much effect, after all, one could get in by "climbing over the wall", but that was none of their business.

They were just putting on an attitude in case other ninja villages used it as an excuse.

The other candidates were not fools either. As soon as they saw them, they knew what they meant and gave up the idea of ​​searching the environment. They gathered in groups of three or five, talking in low voices, waiting for the exam to officially begin.

It's impossible to leave. Since I'm here, I'll have to come back after a while. I might as well wait here.

Naruto and the others also gathered together, but they didn't talk much. They just took the time to replenish their strength.

Those who want to eat snacks eat snacks, and those who want to sleep sleep!

Having learned the content in advance, they knew that once they entered the examination room, it would be impossible to eat well and rest well, so they might as well take advantage of this moment to rest more.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but just when Naruto was feeling bored and wanted to find someone to chat with, the examiner, Mitarashi Anko, finally arrived.

This time she didn't make a splashy appearance. She just walked slowly from a distance, greeted the invigilator standing at the door, and then stood in front of the door.

"Is everyone waiting anxiously?"

No one answered, and many people looked dissatisfied. They were all people who had arrived early but were turned away. Some of them even didn't have breakfast and had been waiting until now with empty stomachs.

Mitarashi Anko didn't care about their attitudes. She smiled and said, "Behind me is the exam site. It's called the Death Forest. You will soon experience why it is called this name..."

"This place is called the Forest of Death, and you're about to experience it." Naruto pinched his waist, twisted his hips back and forth, and made funny movements. With his pretentiously delicate voice, he looked like he deserved a beating.

But Naruto was still unaware, and after imitating what he said, he laughed and said, "No matter how you scare me, I'm fine, I'm not afraid at all!"

"I already knew what was in it." Naruto was secretly proud of himself.

Yesterday afternoon, Inuzuka Kiba, who loved to show off as much as he did, told Naruto the reference method of passing the game that Ye Feng had given them shortly after dinner.

Naruto was already rubbing his hands in anticipation, unable to wait for the exam to begin.

He came too early in the morning, and while others were taking the time to rest, he couldn't help but walk around in circles, trying to find someone to talk to. Others stopped him and told him to shut up, but everyone knew Naruto's character and were afraid that he would let something slip, so they didn't dare let him say more.

This made Naruto very upset. Before Mitarashi Anko could say a few words, while everyone else was paying attention to what happened next, Naruto, who knew everything, couldn't wait to jump out and make trouble.

Mitarashi Anko saw all his actions and praised him with a smile, "Really? You're full of energy!"

Naruto, who didn't know what "people with squinty eyes are not to be messed with" meant, was still enjoying the praise from Anko Mitarashi with a smug look on his face. The next second, he knew what "too much joy leads to sorrow" meant.

But he saw a kunai brushed his cheek, and with a "puff", it pierced into the ground behind him.

Naruto froze in place, not daring to move. The voice coming from behind him made him feel scared.

"Children like you are usually the first to die!" A cold hand climbed onto Naruto's cheek. Mitarashi Anko leaned close to Naruto's ear and whispered something that made Naruto's heart stop, "Spray out my favorite, bright red blood..."

The kunai scratched Naruto's face, leaving a small wound and blood flowing out. She stroked it gently and was about to say some 'teasing' words. Suddenly, her eyes changed and another kunai appeared in her hand.

Without a moment's hesitation, and almost without thinking, Mitarashi Anko stabbed the kunai in her hand behind herself.

The next moment, her hand stopped again.

"Kunai, I give it back to you."

A long tongue that did not resemble a human's, with a fork at the tip, rolled up a kunai and was handed to Mitarashi Anko.

The owner of the tongue had a cold voice, wore a bamboo hat, had pale skin, and had long straight black hair.

Mitarashi Anko recognized the person who came. He was one of the many candidates, a candidate from Kusagakure Village. That was why she stopped attacking.

For some reason, she always felt that this candidate was a little strange, and she sensed a sense of familiarity from this candidate.

But, this was clearly the first time she met this person.

Temporarily suppressing the doubts in her heart, Mitarashi Anko thanked her: "Thank you for the trouble, but..."

As soon as the conversation started, Mitarashi Anko warned, "Don't stand behind me with murderous intent, if you don't want to die early!"

The reason why she took out the kunai and stabbed behind her was that she felt the murderous aura coming from behind her, which made her react instinctively.

The tongue was retracted by its owner, and the kunai on it had been taken away by Mitarashi Anko. The man apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm the kind of person who gets excited when I see blood. Besides, you cut off my most important hair."

It turned out that the first kunai shot by Anko Mitarashi not only scratched Naruto's face, but also cut her hair, and then it stuck to the ground.

She explained her murderous intent, and without caring whether Mitarashi Anko believed it or not, she turned around and left, returning to the team.

Many candidates gathered together to form a team.

Naruto covered his face and stuck his head out, completely forgetting that he had just frozen. He curiously stuck out his tongue, but he could not reach the length of the man just now.

'Why is that guy's tongue so long? ' Naruto wondered, he saw that the man's tongue was at least twenty centimeters long.

Before he could figure out the problem, he heard Mitarashi Anko say with interest: "It seems that this exam has attracted many 'hot-blooded' people. It's really exciting!"

She walked back to the door, no longer thinking about teasing Naruto, and turned around and said, "Well, I'll send this to you before the second exam starts."

He pulled out a stack of papers from his pocket and explained, "This is the consent form. Anyone who wants to take the exam must sign here first."

The twelve young strong men had all learned about the death consent form from Ye Feng, so they were not surprised. However, some of the other candidates asked, "Why?"

"Because once you enter the examination room, your life will be in danger, so..." Mitarashi Anko said with a smile, "So I have to get your consent in advance, otherwise if anything happens to you, it will become my responsibility..."

What she said was quite frank, which made many candidates back off, as if it was not worth throwing away their lives for an exam.

While they were pondering the pros and cons, Mitarashi Anko had already casually handed the consent form to Naruto. She just casually handed it to him because Naruto was closest to her.

Naruto took out one of the consent forms and passed the rest to the person behind him. The person behind him followed suit, took out one and passed it to someone else. By the time they passed it around, everyone had a copy.

Naruto pretended to look at the contents of the consent form, but his mind was not on it at all. He didn't even listen to the rules explained by Mitarashi Anko, he just listened to the general idea.

The general content is similar to what Inuzuka Kiba relayed from Ye Feng, except that Mitarashi Anko explained it in more detail than Ye Feng.

Finally, the rules of Mitarashi Anko were explained, and before Naruto could react, he was dragged aside.

"Everyone, we need to discuss this first." Shikamaru said.

Naruto reacted and said, "What are we discussing? Isn't it enough to just follow what the uncle says?"

"Idiot!" Sakura slapped Naruto on the head, "We need to discuss how to avoid attracting attention."

It was all thanks to yesterday when a few of them stood at the door of the classroom and chatted and laughed together that today, more than a dozen of them gathered together without attracting anyone's attention.

Even after being slapped, Naruto still didn't understand what 'not to attract attention' meant. He hadn't heard all the rules and hadn't found the loopholes.

The examination room for the second exam had forty-four entrances and exits, which was different from the 'different batches' that Ye Feng had mentioned. Mitarashi Anko had just made it clear that they would enter together, just through different entrances.

However, Mitarashi Anko didn't say that they couldn't enter through the same entrance, which gave them room to maneuver.

They could have chosen the same entrance, met up at the very beginning, and then headed straight to the finish line to block people.

But in this case, their target would be too big, and with more than a dozen people acting together, it would be impossible to cover up their traces.

They gathered together at this time to discuss whether to choose the same entrance or to follow the original plan and choose a different entrance.

Naruto didn't want to use his brain, so he just sat aside and waited for everyone to come up with a result. He didn't care. In his opinion, no matter what choice they made, their goal was always the same - to block people in front of the finish line!
