Konoha: The New Will of Fire

In a cave near the stream, Naruto and six others were recovering from their injuries.滃

"I didn't expect that I would survive."

Shikamaru looked at the black wall in front of him and smelled the scent of fish soup in the air. He felt like he was dreaming. If he hadn't been sure that he wasn't under the illusion, Shikamaru would have thought it was all fake.

Unfortunately, the smell of fish floating in the air told Shikamaru that these were real. Shikamaru wanted to move his body, but his body had no strength now, and he couldn't even move a finger.

Snapped…

Ino slapped Shikamaru and cursed: "You are still in a turbulent mood. Please be quiet. Do you know that you are lucky to be able to save a small life? If you hadn't killed Naruto at the last moment, After using the antidote that the adults distributed to us, you are already a corpse now, and you are still moving around. The toxins have not been eliminated yet, so please calm down for a while."

"Lie down for a few hours and wait for your toxins to be eliminated. Then you can take action."

Faced with Ino's scolding, Shikamaru rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Women...are indeed a troublesome creature. I haven't liked women from the beginning. It's true."

While complaining, Shikamaru looked at Ino who was giving medicine to Choza. He felt strange. Ino was still the same Ino, but she seemed different.

Shikamaru couldn't tell specifically. In short, the original Ino was just a little kid who didn't grow up. He was also very aggressive, liked to lose his temper, was unreasonable, and had the shortcomings that all girls have.

Ino now also has these shortcomings, but it is different. Shikamaru can't find good words to describe it, as if Ino suddenly grew up and became mature.

In fact, it was not only Ino, but also Chouji, and the others. Ino glanced at everyone, and everyone had undergone tremendous changes in this battle.

"Ino, can't you let me eat some barbecue? I'm hungry, look at my belly."

Chouji raised his hand and touched his already flat stomach, while pleading to Ino, but unfortunately Ino ignored Chouji at all.

"No, you can't eat in your current state. Take it with you. You two guys are not worrying at all. You have been so seriously injured and you are still not honest. You two have just taken the healing potion. Wait for the potion to arrive. The work efficiency has been achieved, and we will talk about it after you recover."

After saying that, Ino stood up and threw the empty reagent tube into the fire.

Shikamaru glanced at the silent Naruto next to him and comforted him: "Don't worry, Naruto, Sasuke is fine. His injuries are just more serious than ours. We are carrying the latest treatment potions this time. But it’s made with Grayl’s Stone as raw material. You can see that Sasuke’s wounds have completely healed. His body is no longer a problem. Now it’s mainly mental damage. As long as he gets a good rest, he’ll be fine.”

Hearing Shikamaru's comfort, Naruto's expression didn't get much better. Next to him, Sakura looked at Sasuke with a worried look on her face, choking and shouting: "Sasuke, when will you wake up?"

At this point, everyone fell silent. This time they experienced an unprecedented failure. Everyone was seriously injured. If they didn't have the best treatment potion, they would have been forced to withdraw from the game due to injuries.

Logically speaking, even if Sasuke was fatally injured, with the treatment of the medicine, the injury recovered. Sasuke should wake up, but for some reason, Sasuke never woke up.

Seeing this scene, Shikamaru changed the subject and said: "We all underestimated the cruelty of this exam, especially me, who didn't even consider this situation. Kumogakure, Kirigakure, Sunagakure and Iwagakure Village, these four major villages secretly chose to join forces to kill all of us in Konoha."

"Those bastards!"

Naruto gnashed his teeth and cursed, it was these people who caused Sasuke to be so seriously injured, and why he still hasn't woken up, and why they are like this now.

Ino comforted Shikamaru and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Not to mention you, even the Hokage and the others didn't expect it."

"No!"

Shikamaru shook his head: "You are wrong, Ino, Hokage-sama and the others should have known about it, don't you think it's strange? Why did Hokage-sama give us the best antidote and treatment potion before we take the exam? I'm afraid They must have made some guesses when they were looking for it, and the most annoying thing about grandma is that she was prepared, but we are the fools and didn’t even think about it at all.”

Having said this, Shikamaru couldn't help but blame himself. If he had thought about it a little at the beginning, he would have figured it out, so that he could tell everyone and this situation would not have happened.

They were lucky. They rescued others and saved their lives in the end. But I wonder if other people can have such good luck?

Thinking of this, Shikamaru couldn't help but sigh: "Now I just hope Toneri and the others can act fast enough to help the others."

"That's all!"

Ino's eyes darkened, and she was filled with worry. The rest of the people were now in danger, and she didn't want to see any of her familiar partners die.

Naruto suddenly thought of something and suggested: "Why don't you let me leave first? I can also help the others."

Because Naruto is the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails, he did not suffer too serious injuries. Coupled with the strong vitality of the Uzumaki clan and the use of healing potions, Naruto has fully recovered and is now alive and kicking. It should not be said that it is better than being injured. Even more energy.

However, as soon as Naruto finished speaking, a fist struck behind him, slamming Naruto to the ground.

It was Sakura who was furious: "Are you stupid? At this time, you run to save others. What should we do? Everyone is injured. If someone finds us, do you want us wounded to fight?"

"Xiao...Xiao Sakura...can you be gentler?"

Naruto, who fell to the ground, had stars in his eyes, and he felt that his whole head was sublimated.

Seeing this scene, Shikamaru couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and added: "Okay, everyone, Naruto is actually right. Since the four major ninja villages have united, we must unite at this time. Only Only by uniting can we deal with the alliance of the four major ninja villages."

Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Shikamaru's eyes. He has never suffered such a big loss in his entire life. This is definitely a lifelong shame. No matter what, Shikamaru will get this situation back. In the words of Lord Hokage, He said, we people in Konoha can't suffer a loss, let alone suffer a loss on our own territory.

Dingci suddenly interjected: "If we do this, what about our exam? After all, our mission is to search for tokens and then pass the exam. If we go to war with the four great ninja villages, we will not be able to pass the exam in the end. All of us will be I can’t become a chuunin, let alone participate in the subsequent arena competitions.”

"Yes, this is indeed what we have to test."
