Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 67 Bait

"Oh!?" And at this time, Yume Shino seemed to have reacted, and asked Xianglin: "'He'? There is only one person!?"

"Yes, yes." Xianglin stuttered slightly after being startled.

"One against three, the strength is not low." Hearing the words, Inuzuka Ya raised his eyebrows and said, but he would not hesitate to move forward because of this. This kind of opponent, don't take advantage of the opportunity of the two teams to get rid of this time , in the follow-up exams, he will definitely be a strong opponent.

"Of course the strength is not low, and the other party is likely to be a Jonin!" Shikamaru twitched the corners of his mouth after hearing Inuzuka Ya's words, thinking in his heart that the enemy in disguise as Kusanagi mentioned in Kaorin's mouth should be Otonin who sneaked into the examination room with Oshemaru, the examinees of Dainin Village will receive attention and increase the discipline of being seen through, and although the technique of erasing face is many times stronger than the transformation technique in terms of camouflage, but in terms of body shape However, it is difficult to change. With this screening, the range of candidates that Orochimaru can choose to disguise is very small. What's more, the Kusanagi who was disguised by Orochimaru has long hair, and Orochimaru who also has long hair is very difficult to disguise. It is convenient, so it is not too coincidental that Orochimaru chose the grass ninja village team as the target and disguised it like the original book.

"I didn't expect to find them here." Shikamaru lowered his head and said in a voice that only one person could hear.

That's right, Shikamaru's goal from the beginning was not Ningji Hinata, Gaara, or Sasuke Uchiha, but the ninja of Otonin Village who came with Orochimaru.

Only by defeating Neiji Hyuga in the official contest can his reputation flourish in Konoha Village and the Nara clan, and he will be honored as the number one genius in Konoha. , but it is not something that the six ninjas can deal with. As for Uchiha Sasuke, Shikamaru's strength at this time is not in the eyes of Shikamaru.

Relying on the ability of the eighth class of Konoha Shinobi to find Otonin who is alone, kill him, and finally hand over the body to Konoha Village. Relying on the ability of the intelligence department to learn some plans of Orochimaru, this is Shikamaru original intention.

Although with Orochimaru's habit, unless he is a subordinate whose abilities are valued by him like Yakushidou and Otonin, he has no value or status at all, and it is impossible to know the whole plan of Orochimaru, but as long as three generations It is enough for Shikamaru that Naruto Sarutobi knows the existence of Konoha's collapse plan!

The breeze blew through the forest, and the roar of the wild beast came here. After hearing it, several people couldn't help but look into the distance. Although they were not afraid of the wild beast, they were always troublesome.

"I hope you don't lie to us." Shikamaru waved lightly, and said to Xianglin who had stood up: "Then please hand over the scroll to us first!"

Although Kaorin's ability is dispensable for Shikamaru and others who already have Inuzuka Kiba and Hinata Hinata, but the opponent said that the enemy with one enemy and three enemies made everyone The character who cared, so he didn't refuse Kaorin's request. With Baiyan and Akamaru, even if the other party was ambushing, he could find it in time, and if it was a trap, he would be able to deal with it calmly, but naturally he wouldn't tell Kaorin about it.

…………

"It seems that your companion has completely abandoned you!" Hechuan Qiwan bent down, grabbed the tall Kusanagi's throat with one hand, and dragged him up until his feet were off the ground, the cold words came from the ghost mask. It was later reported that it is not difficult to imagine his expression at this time, it must be cold and cruel.

Gao Dacao endured the blood on his face, and his eyes were slightly confused. It could be seen that although he was not dead yet, his consciousness had gradually dissipated due to excessive blood loss. He Chuan Qi Wan's wrist didn't have any extra strength to do other movements.

"I don't even have the qualifications to be a bait." Hechuan Qiwan knew that Xianglin was a sentient ninja. Phosphorus tried to find a way to return to the rescue, but he didn't expect Xianglin to be so vicious, and his companions who got along day and night gave up as soon as they said they would give up.

"Scroll..." Unexpectedly, at this time, Gao Dacao Ren seemed to know that he would die, and the corner of his mouth was pulled, showing a smile, and murmured, as if he was mocking Hechuan Qiwan.

"This idiot, do you think I came here for the scrolls!?" He Chuan Qiwan thought disdainfully, the right hand that grabbed Kusanagi's neck increased his strength, crushed the fragile bones around his neck, and then shook his hand like throwing away trash Same, throw Kusanagi's body on the ground.

"Although I didn't turn around to rescue her, maybe it's because I'm afraid that my strength may not be certain. That girl may still be nearby." He Chuan Qiwan shook off the blood stains on his hands, thinking with a frown.

…………

At the same time when Hechuan Qiwan killed Kusanagi, Xianglin, who was marching in a column formation not far away, suddenly stopped, with a shocked expression on his face. After staggering two steps, he quickly held onto the tree trunk with one hand, shrugged his shoulders, Eyes filled with tears.

"What's wrong!?" Shikamaru, who was standing side by side with Karin, frowned and asked after seeing the other's movements.

Let Kaorin lead the team alone, everyone in Class [-] and Class [-] will not feel at ease. If it is an ambush, the leader position will be easy to escape. Therefore, Shikamaru and Kaorin are at the front of the team side by side, which is also convenient for Shikamaru to fight when necessary. At that time, he caught Xianglin and gave orders to Inuzuka Ya and others.

"The captain's Chakra disappeared..." Xianglin choked and murmured to herself, tears flowed down her cheeks and fell to the ground, and her companion's Chakra disappeared one after another, making her sad beyond control.

"Hinata!" Seeing this, Inuzuka Kiba curled his lips, turned around, and whispered to Hinata Hinata who was not far away.

The tacit understanding that has been formed for a long time does not require Inuzuka Ya to say anything more. Hinata Hinata understood the meaning of the other party, formed a mudra with both hands, concentrated Chakra in the eyes, and looked into the distance with sharp eyes.

"There is a ninja wandering 400 meters away, as if he was looking for something." After observing carefully for a while, Hinata Hinata said in a deep voice, and suddenly frowned and said: "...His chakra is so strong, comparing it alone, I'm afraid we don't have it. People can compare to him."

"I'm looking for scrolls!" As a girl, Ino's heart is much softer. At this time, she was going forward to comfort Karin, who looked sad and not fake, when she heard Hinata Hinata's words, she turned her head and said.

"We have six, no, seven of us, and the other party has only one after all, what are you afraid of!" Inuzuka Ya said confidently with his arms folded, while lowering his head, he whispered to Akamaru who was lying in his arms Said: "Yes, Akamaru!"

"Wow!" Akamaru called out understandingly, as if responding to Inuzuka's words, which made the other party more satisfied.

"Having said that, the main purpose of this exam is still a war of attrition, not to mention that our purpose is to eradicate many candidates, so as to save energy, or try to save as much as possible." Shikamaru said, he didn't know whether the opponent was a Chunin or a Junin , but it’s okay to be careful: “Just in case, let’s make a plan!”

"Shikamaru, you are too careful!" Inuzuka Ya heard the words and muttered in a low voice, but he did not refute Shikamaru's proposal loudly. Facing a battle, there is no harm in being more cautious, let alone he is not alone at this time In the battle, the safety of Yume Shino and Hyuga Hinata on the same team as him is also something he has to care about.

"This location is good, we will choose this place as the battle venue!" Shikamaru didn't care about Inuzuka's whispers. After turning his head and looking around, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. The trees were slightly sparse, but it was not so empty It is a big tree, and the sunlight can just sway in, shining on the tree, casting criss-cross shadows.

The open area is not conducive to Shikamaru's use of shadow imitation, which is very conspicuous. In densely wooded places, if six people miss one hit, the enemy will react, and the two sides will fall into a high-speed mobile battle. During the period, the enemy can use giant trees to block [-]. Divide the formation of six people, so that everyone can't connect head to tail, and can't support each other at the first time, and the situation of being defeated one by one occurs.

"Karin," Shikamaru said to Karin who had controlled his emotions, "I need you as a bait to attract the enemy into our encirclement."

Xiang Lin looked a little hesitant when she heard the words. She had seen the opponent's strength with her own eyes and remembered it deeply. Although the distance was only 400 meters, it seemed nothing to the ninja's foot strength, but if she was caught up, with her strength, she could almost even No right to resist.

"Don't worry, I'll go with you and sneak attack in secret." Seeing Kaorin's expression, Shikamaru knew the other party's worry, and said.

"Shikamaru! This is too dangerous!" Ino suddenly interrupted Shikamaru's words at this time, frowned slightly, and categorically objected, if all of Xianglin's performance was a disguise to ambush a few people, Shikamaru alone It would be too dangerous to go there. Although under the investigation of Hinata Hinata and Kiba Inuzuka, this possibility is very slim, but with Ino's concern, he also feels that this situation is not impossible.

"It doesn't matter, the distance is only 400 meters, and it will be there in a blink of an eye. Ino, you don't have to worry." Shikamaru smiled, looked at Ino, looked into the other's eyes, and said seriously.

"But..." Seeing this, Ino wanted to say something, but found that a hand was suddenly placed on her shoulder, and when he looked back, he found that it was Choji, looking at him seriously.

"You should trust Shikamaru, Ino!" Choji said seriously.

"After entering the ambush circle, because there is only one person on the other side, Choji and Iba will attack in one section, Choji will launch an offensive with a roudan chariot, and Ibayou and Akamaru will use the 'Ibatoya' cross attack to seal his retreat " After Shikamaru heard Choji's words, seeing that Ino was silent, he continued to explain the plan.

"Crack!" A kunai was suddenly thrown away by Shikamaru and nailed to the trunk of a big tree not far away.

"Choji!" At the same time, Shikamaru said to Choji seriously: "I want you to break that big tree down the middle after launching an offensive, no matter whether you hit the enemy or not!"
