Naruto Neji: I can see chakra!

Rock Lee, who was awakened by Hyuga and Neji, couldn't help but look ashamed, but he also grew up again after the blow.

They are originally a small team. Isn't the strength of teammates a manifestation of their own strength?

If you feel that you are useless if your teammates are strong, then you should practice more on yourself. Don't let yourself fall behind, and become stronger together. There is no need to act alone, even if this time it is for the person he fell in love with at first sight - Haruno Sakura.

The rest of the journey was completely fine, without any problems. Hyuga Neji and his companions successfully arrived at the central tower of the Death Forest, a huge tower with mottled traces and full of the breath of time.

When Neji and the other two walked into the tower, three hours had passed since the exam was scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m.

In fact, the three of them should have arrived faster. After all, there was no pressure at all, and they had obtained all the necessary scrolls at the beginning. However, due to Rock Lee running around alone, everyone had to go back to the opposite direction of the central tower to search, which wasted some time.

"What? There's no one in this tower—"

"There really is nowhere to go. We've been waiting for quite a while. How long do we have to wait?"

Da da da--

Led by Hyuga Neji, Tenten and Rock Lee, the three of them entered the first floor lobby of the central tower together.

The people who were complaining inside just now also looked up.

They were actually three ninjas from the Sand Village: Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari.

Hyuga Neji glanced at it, then nodded lightly, and took Tenten and Rock Lee to the other side of the open space to rest. Just like in the original work, the three-person team from the Sand Village quickly passed the second level in just 1 hour and 37 minutes.

You know, ordinary Chunins can't reach the central tower unscathed.

what?

You said that Hyuga Neji also arrived at the central tower spotlessly?

Hahahaha, he is a cheater!

The perfect control of chakra ensures that there won't be a trace of dust on Hyuga Neji's body, whether it's his hair or his clothes, which he doesn't want to see.

"This guy is really strong..." Gaara looked at Hyuga Neji and his gang with fear, especially Hyuga Neji.

The reason he was able to walk through the whole journey unscathed was because of the absolute defense and self-awareness of the sand that was silently protecting him.

Where is Hyuga Neji?

It all depends on your own strength!

Although he doesn't look particularly outstanding from the outside, my intuition makes Gaara subconsciously not want to get close to Hyuga Neji.

It's like two ferocious beasts unwilling to come together.

Tenten and Rock Lee saw the words written on the wall, and they quickly figured out that they had to open the scroll. Hyuga Neji took out a pair of scrolls of heaven and earth from his arms, spread them out and threw them aside.

He knew that if the two scrolls were opened separately, it would be a hypnosis that could make an unruly person sleep until the exam was over in five days. If the two were opened together, it would form a summoning technique that could summon a Chunin examiner.

After the scroll was unfolded, the spell hidden within it began to take effect. Black ink gathered and bulged upward like a living thing, followed by a burst of smoke.

Swah——

A figure flashed in it.

"Teacher Fujiwara——" Rock Lee couldn't help but shout out happily.

Isn't this too passionate? ! ! !

"Oh, it's you! What a coincidence, you three are the only graduating students in my class among this year's candidates!"

Fujiwara Daiki also felt it was a great coincidence. He really didn't know that his favorite students, Hyuga Neji and others, were recommended by the Jonin Mike to take part in the Chunin selection exam.

He just saw such a task posted in the Hokage Building, and since it was a high-paying, low-stuff job and close to home, he took it directly.

Although it is time to reminisce about the past, one's duties as an examiner must still be performed promptly.

Fujiwara Daiki checked the watch on his wrist: "Wow, 5:35! You guys are here pretty fast!"

"It broke the previous record of 4 hours for the fastest clearance!"

Hyuga Neji smiled and shook his head, pointing at the three ninjas from the Sand Village in the distance and said, "They arrived earlier than us. I estimate it will be within two hours."

"Ah, well, this is a really monstrous class of examinees—"

Fujiwara no Oki wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, turned around to look at the text that occupied the entire wall behind him, and then began to explain to Hyuga Neji and the other two.

"This is the experience related to the Chunin Exam written by Hokage-sama. As for Chunin, Hokage-sama pointed out that heaven represents the mind and earth represents the body. If you have good physical strength but not enough brain, you should study more and grow more. If you are smart but your body can't keep up, you should exercise more."

"When the heaven and earth are complete, and the brain and physical strength are relatively excellent, at this time, as long as you lead them on the right path, there is no task that cannot be accomplished."

Turned around and looked at Tiantian.

"So, Tiantian, you need to work harder on the Way of the Earth, which means you need to increase your physical strength!"

Turn around and look at Rock Lee.

"And Xiao Li, you need to study more and think more before completing the task. Don't just act recklessly!"

Finally he looked at Hyuga Neji.

"As for you, Neji, I have nothing much to say. You are already a true Chunin - in my heart."

Tiantian and Rock Lee bowed respectfully and expressed their willingness to learn.

Hyuga Neji also nodded and thanked his teacher for his wishes and expectations.

"Okay, that's it. Now I can congratulate you on passing the second exam! Next, I will take you to find a room, and you can rest for the next few days. After 2 days, when the time comes, everyone should prepare to start the third exam! Now my mission has been completed. There is a lot of money, little work, and it is close to home. I will go back to sleep soon!"

After taking Hyuga Neji and the other two to find three adjacent guest rooms, Fujiwara Daiki waved his hand, made a "yeah" gesture to his three favorite students in turn, and then disappeared.

Because it was too tiring - although they were just traveling out of boredom every day, the three of them said good night to each other, and quickly followed Hyuga Neji's instructions, returning to their rooms to refine chakra for two hours, and then fell into a good sleep.

Next, the few of them ate the delicious food prepared by Hyuga Neji every day, and spent the rest of the time walking around the central tower, exercising, and quietly waiting for the arrival of the remaining contestants.

……

Naruto Uzumaki's Team 7 arrived at the central tower in the afternoon of the second day.

In the original work, they lost the Scroll of Heaven due to various reasons - because it was burned by Orochimaru, so in the original work, several people had been looking for other teams in the Death Forest, but they never found them until the end.

It was not until they faced three ninjas from the Hidden Rain Village near the central tower and were defeated by the clever Uzumaki Naruto that they obtained the complete Scroll of Heaven and Earth and arrived at the central tower on time.

But this time, Orochimaru did not burn their Scroll of Heaven, the Butterfly Effect.

Moreover, Hyuga Neji had already given Uchiha Sasuke the scroll of earth that they were missing yesterday, so the three of them certainly didn't have to wander around in the Forest of Death all the time. After their conditions recovered, they could just quickly reach the central tower and have a good rest after arriving.

Although the number of people who passed the first exam was different from the original work, the number of people who arrived at the central tower was exactly the same: 1.

This is the real gold that has been washed out by the great waves. Only those who have both luck and strength can have the last laugh. Those cannon fodder who accidentally broke in are just going through the motions.

At the same time, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had also arrived at the central tower and was meeting with the examiner of the second exam, Mitarashi Anko, and the examiner of the first exam, Morino Ibiki. He listened carefully to Mitarashi Anko's report and looked at the curse mark on her neck, then said with a serious face: "Orochimaru is here. Things are getting tricky."

Mitarashi Anko anxiously requested: "Hokage-sama, things have taken an unpredictable turn, so I implore you to cancel this Chunin Exam! Gather the army and search carefully for Orochimaru's whereabouts, and bring him to justice." Of course, if we ignore the fear in the depths of her eyes, her request would be more convincing.

The Sandaime Hokage bit his pipe, which he never left behind, and pondered over what Mitarashi Anko had said. He did not directly answer the request, but instead said, "He is here to look for Uchiha Sasuke, right?"

"Nani?"

Mitarashi Anko's face changed drastically!

I was so shocked that I couldn't speak for a moment.

For various reasons, as well as her unspeakable personal pride, Mitarashi Anko did not report Orochimaru's purpose to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen: it was for Uchiha Sasuke, and Orochimaru spoke highly of Uchiha Sasuke, saying that Mitarashi Anko was just a disposable container, but Uchiha Sasuke was looked upon favorably by Orochimaru.

The Sandaime Hokage knew the specific facts as soon as his eyes rolled. After all, he was the longest-lived Hokage who had been in charge of Konoha Village for decades!

He knew much more about the deeds of light and darkness than Danzo Shimura.

As long as he wants to know about these events in the entire Konoha Village, nothing can be hidden from the Hokage.

"The Chunin Selection Exam will proceed as normal, but you need to keep a close eye on Uchiha Sasuke. If the curse seal on his neck gets out of control and he goes berserk, the competition will be terminated and he will be kept under guard."

Mitarashi Anko threw her own little thoughts out of the sky and hurriedly continued to dissuade him.

At this moment, the TV not far from the wall in front of him suddenly lit up, and a captain in charge of coordinating the Chunin examiners reported solemnly to the examiner Mitarashi Anko who was outside the TV.

"Lord Anko! There are 2 ninjas who have passed the second exam! According to the rules of the Chunin Exam, we will use exam questions that have not been used in the past five years. The second exam is officially over! That's it."

Finally, the screen went out instantly. Everyone present was silent, except for the Hokage, who was still smoking his pipe leisurely.
