The Thousand Faces of Konoha's Weird Man

133 Attack of the Sound Ninja

"Master Kira, in two days the Chunin Exam will be held. Your safety during the observation period will be taken over by the Anbu, and you will not be able to walk around Konoha at will. In order to ensure the confidentiality of this Chunin Exam, many places will be listed It’s a restricted area.”

It was already a few days later, and with the Chunin exam approaching, Saki could clearly feel the solemn atmosphere in the air. It's like a Ferrari that has reached its top speed. What's waiting for it is either exceeding the limit or crashing the car and killing people.

It is Sakichi's captain Aoba Yamashiro who is speaking now. Because he needs to take over the Chunin Examination, all subsequent protection tasks will be handed over to the ANBU. Most dignitaries will be protected together, saving a lot of manpower to invest in preparations for the exam.

Just like the college entrance examination in our country, schools, the places where exam papers are stored, and even the education bureau are all critical locations. It is not a place you can just enter casually. The test papers will be rhymed to each examination room before the exam, and the examiner must ensure that the test papers are not opened.

In order to ensure that the contents of the Chuunin Exam are not leaked, Konoha's confidentiality methods are also diligent.

Of course, Saki also saw another meaning of Konoha, which was to deal with possible situations. After all, the third generation was still scared. Although he spoke uprightly when they met, the three of them became a tiger. With people like Sakichi repeating it in his ears, he still had concerns about the Chuunin exams and hoped that if something happened he could not control it. things that can reduce the riots to a minimum.

Saki also keenly discovered that the number of ninjas patrolling and standing on the city walls has increased a lot recently, and famous ninjas are no longer as common as cabbage in the vegetable market. On the other hand, the frequency of those who are preparing for the Chuunin Examination has increased a lot. They probably go shopping to relieve stress.

Today is also the time for Sakichi to deliver this task. Next, he will report to Morino Ihiki and pretend to be a genin taking the exam. Because the information that Sakichi is qualified as a chunin has always been in the hands of the Anbu, it can still be used before it is announced. As for being able to have the time and space to "review" before the exam, that is a privilege that only "excellent" graduates of the ninja school have. For ordinary ninjas, the chunin exam is just an ordinary task, especially for those who are young. The Ninja Village emphasizes actual combat and ability, not "certificates" and "diplomas."

But before that, Saki has more important things to do.

It's night, in the forest outside Konoha.

The black shadow who arrived at the agreed place early after seeing Zuoji said impatiently: "What kind of important thing is it? We have to meet at this time. Shouldn't you be here now?"

"Ahem, don't be impatient." Zoji seemed relatively calm, "Of course I will do what I agreed with you. The information I have recently obtained is all in this scroll. You can arrange the appropriate people to follow you according to your own judgment. Come on, besides, I came to you today to prepare for the worst case scenario."

With that said, Zoji handed over the huge scroll that Fang Zhu gave him to the visitor.

"The way to remove the seal is"

"The place where it is placed is"

"I will be entering and need special permission"

The nagging Zoji told the visitor in detail his arrangements. After all, the opponent's fists were relatively big, and it would be difficult for Zoji to get support without a clear explanation.

"Why are you so sure?" This question puzzled Zoji.

"Ahem, of course it is based on the analysis of the opponent's personality, and according to the arrangements for the Chunin Exam, that place is the most suitable. In addition, just in case, I have made arrangements in other places, but that place I'm more sensitive and just need your help." Lying is also a skill that requires proficiency. Saki has been involved in conspiracies for so long, and it can be said that he has mastered it. Without blushing or heartbeat, he kept giving excuses and finally made the other party somewhat dispel his doubts.

"Although I don't think things will develop to that point, but it's not a bad thing to make more arrangements, but how can you guarantee that things will develop according to your imagination."

"Have you already received my gift? According to your personality, you should have discovered the problem." Questioning is a good thing, indicating that the other party has seriously considered your suggestion. Therefore, it is necessary for Zoji to answer questions and even let the other party experience it.

"It's better to be like this." Before he finished speaking, Zoji directly pulled out a sharp sword from his waist. Yes, it was really a long sword, just like the one used by Moonlight Blast.

"Why?" It stands to reason that the person opposite is also a ninja who has experienced many battles, and he still has the necessary vigilance, but what Saki did just now really shocked him, because he really didn't see any murder weapon on Saki's body. There are no traces of it, even the waist bag that ninjas wear most of the time. How can they conjure a sword with empty hands?

Could it be space ninjutsu?

As soon as he thought about it, Zoji's sword had already passed through him.

"You should believe it now"

At the same time, Yakushi Kabuto came to Kikyo Castle with all the sound ninjas.

The sound ninjas settled in a simple camp on the outskirts of Kikyo City. Of course, Yakushi Kabuto also put on some makeup, at least with the sound of a sound ninja on his forehead, so that no one familiar with it would notice.

The few people headed by Oto Ninja were naturally the trio taking part in the Chunin Examination. After all, they were a newly promoted Ninja Village, and miscellaneous fish accounted for 90% of the group. People like Toss and Sak would not be selected if they were not strong enough, and they have actual combat experience. Even if they are placed in Konoha, they have a very good chance of passing the mission and qualifications to be qualified for chuunin work. It's just that this year's exams are all It's a monster that gives them no chance to perform.

"Tomorrow I will enter Konoha first, and you will follow the sound ninja's large army to Konoha."

Kabuto is the veteran of the Sound Ninja, and he is also the executor who helped Orochimaru prepare this matter. He even recruited and trained Sak and the others, and he has a transcendent status around Orochimaru.

"No problem." Although they are superiors, the Sound Ninja Village is Orochimaru's Sound Ninja Village after all. This group of people are a little rude even to Orochimaru's right-hand man, and their enthusiasm for Orochimaru flows in their bones. They were born as civilians and were filled with yearning for Orochimaru. That was what they most wanted to become.

"In addition, I am preparing to arrange a conflict with you."

"Why bother?" Before Yakushi Kabuto finished speaking, he was interrupted by Toss.

"Of course it's for Lord Orochimaru."

Although he is a supporting character in the comic, he seems to be a character who has no authority and can only show off his courage and fight ruthlessly. But being able to stand out in such a harsh environment in the Sound Ninja Village speaks for itself.

Therefore, just after Kabuto Yakushi revealed some information, Jin quickly discovered the problem: "Lord Orochimaru is already in Konoha."

"Yes, and he will show up during the Chunin Exam. He has other plans during this exam." Orochimaru has quite a lot of substitutes, and there are a bunch of people waiting to become his containers. That's why I feel like this guy seems to be everywhere, just like Voldemort. Even Yakushi Kabuto wasn't very sure about Orochimaru's whereabouts. He just knew that he would find a way to sneak into the Death Forest, which was the best time to take action against Sasuke.

As for why they knew that the Forest of Death would be the venue for the Chunin Exam, you could tell by simply collecting information. The layout of the exam room and cleaning up dangerous creatures are time-consuming and labor-intensive tasks, and you can't hide them even if you want to. What's more, Kabuto Yakushi has Danzo, a second- and fifth-level internal supporter, in Konoha, and the complete plan for the Chunin Exam is even on his desk. This kind of thing is not a problem for the high-level officials of Konoha who have some energy. After all, even if they know the content of the exam, they still need the real strength of a strong bridge to pass.

"Why Orochimaru-sama?"

"Why don't you tell me? I'm conveying Lord Orochimaru's order." The pharmacist laughed unscrupulously. He always had the most basic sympathy for such miserable abandoned children. On the contrary, these people The guy who abandoned the chess piece had no consciousness of becoming a chess piece, and always wanted to attract Orochimaru's attention. You must know that in this world with strict classes, these children without talents will never get ahead. Even the guys with talents, without the help of Orochimaru, cannot fight against the queens of famous families. "You will shoulder the responsibility of Lord Orochimaru." An important task is that Lord Orochimaru will give a curse seal to Uchiha Sasuke, the only descendant of the Uchiha family in this chunin exam, and your task is to monitor him. Of course, if you have the ability to create some trouble for him, I I believe you will be able to laugh at Orochimaru-sama’s place.”

Some things don't need to be said very straightforwardly, especially things like sowing discord. You can easily achieve your goals by making full use of other people's imagination and even jealousy.

Orochimaru's possession of curse seal technology was no secret to even the more advanced ninjas in Sound Ninja Village. After all, the initial test subjects of this technology were the lowest level cannon fodder ninjas. From the earliest Tiger Curse Seal to the Earth Curse Seal, to the Dacheng Heaven Curse Seal, this thing gradually became a shortcut for carps to leap over the dragon gate. From the five people, Sak and the other three naturally saw the power of the curse seal, but the danger involved was also obvious.

However, as ardent fans of Orochimaru, the three Satyrs did not care about their own safety, but due to their talents, they could not withstand the power of the curse seal. This is a thorn in everyone's heart, just like a man who is not handsome enough can only be used as a spare tire for girls. This feeling is very difficult.

Today, it's a little different

If Kabuto Yakushi had just arranged Orochimaru's mission, these three people might not have thought wildly, but after a hint, the three people's minds suddenly became more active. Is the curse seal really powerful? Of course it is, at least among the five of them, no matter who is standing here, Sak and the other three are probably no match, let alone Kimimaro, an opponent outside the standard.

But Sasuke is different

With the annihilation of the Uchiha clan and the rebellion of Uchiha Itachi, the Sharingan has completely become a legendary thing. Ninjas who have not truly experienced the horror of genjutsu will not understand how terrifying the Sharingan is. , so to these sound ninjas who lick blood with their swords, Sasuke is just a naughty kid who has never seen blood. The so-called genius is completely self-proclaimed. For the sound ninja who has really seen hell, there is nothing at all. Deterrence.

The sound ninja of this generation are undoubtedly the strongest. The people like Sak all grew up in the war to destroy the country. For them, the battle between countries is just a larger scale, and they have no fear at all.

The Sound Ninja Village was established in the Land of Honda. There was no Ninja Village in the original Honda Country. It was a small country attached to Konoha. It basically relied on hiring Konoha ninjas as tasks to protect the village. The daimyo may have some miscellaneous things in his hands. soldiers. Orochimaru relied on bribery to get the daimyo to agree to establish a ninja village, and then used thunder to seize control of the country. War was the only means.

Having participated in such a war and standing out was the source of the confidence of the three sound ninjas.

"Uchiha clan? Orochimaru-sama is also a ninja born in Konoha. Why do you want to use the Uchiha clan's container now and take such a big risk?"

"This is not a problem you need to worry about." Although the three sound ninjas are arrogant, they are not stupid. They wanted to get more information about Uchiha from Kabuto Yakushi, but Kabuto Yakushi was not stupid. Talking too much could easily arouse Orochimaru's suspicion. Although he had already made plans to set up his own business, he was not ready to start his own business. Orochimaru was not ready to leave until his skills were exhausted. Even if there is a secret struggle, you still have to respect Orochimaru openly, "All you need to do is to monitor him and that's enough."

"learn"

Having already won the flower, Kabuto Yakushi just had to wait for it to bloom. Looking at the three people who seemed to be in harmony with each other, Kabuto Yakushi left the Sound Ninja camp with satisfaction. He also had to contact the people from the Kingdom of Wind. The guys playing the Fourth Kazekage and the guards were all Orochimaru's stand-ins. The commander of this battle was the Jonin Maki of Suna Ninja Village. As the saying goes, more words lead to more mistakes. The best way for Orochimaru to play the Fourth Kazekage is to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

Even if Maki has doubts, he doesn't dare to really lift the veil of the Fourth Kazekage. People with the power and courage are now staying in Suna Ninja Village. What's more, Orochimaru's actions can also be understood as his new appointment to Maki, and he concentrates on dealing with the Third Hokage.

However, even if there is no intention of calculation, Suna Ninja Village is still desperate. It can be seen that it has been squeezed by Konoha and Iwa Ninja Village in recent years, and internal and external troubles are quite serious. So they embarked on a path completely opposite to Konoha's solution to conflicts, that is, war.

It's just that Tokiya's destiny ended up making a wedding dress for Orochimaru or the Akatsuki organization, which was a bad move that led to Uchiha Madara's comeback. It can be said that the Chuunin Examination is the real beginning of the story of Naruto. Without the weakening of the combat power of several major powers, the state of turmoil has been revealed. The conspirators hiding in the dark dare not show up at all. The Akatsuki organization is caught in the cracks. It is also impossible to defeat them one by one quickly.
