If you don't want to unify the ninja world, why are you crying about the ninja village system?

Ninja World No. 64, Land of Fire, Konoha Village, 44th Training Ground.

Mitarashi Anko was standing in front of the examination room, her hair fluttering in the wind and her eyes scanning the front sharply.

The rest of the candidates gathered densely in front of her. They all looked nervous, with their eyes revealing anticipation and fear of unknown challenges.

Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Mitarashi Anko took a deep breath, cleared her throat, and said seriously: "This is the examination room for the second exam, the 44th training ground in our Konoha Village - the Death Forest!"

When she finished saying this, a chilly wind blew past, as if it was a cold wind blowing from the depths of hell, making all the ninjas present feel cold all over.

Sakura shuddered and said with a trembling voice: "I always feel that this place is eerie..."

Mitarashi Anko seemed to have heard her muttering, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile. This smile was unpredictable, adding to the mysterious atmosphere of the Forest of Death.

"Wait a minute and you will know why this place is called the Forest of Death!"

Akito looked at Sakura upon hearing that and smiled.

"It's just a primeval forest. There's nothing to be afraid of."

Mitarashi Anko narrowed her eyes slightly, she was planning to give Akito a warning.

The next moment a kunai cut through the air, brushing against Mingren's face.

However, Mingren just turned his head slightly and dodged.

Seeing this, Mitarashi Anko raised her eyebrows, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"Interesting kid, I'm optimistic about your performance in the exam, I hope you don't die~"

Mitarashi Anko appeared out of nowhere behind Mingren, and then lowered her mouth to speak in his ear.

Mingren smiled upon hearing this.

"Don't worry, I will definitely give you a surprise!"

Just as Mingren finished speaking, a long tongue suddenly stretched out in front of him.

Seeing this, Mitarashi Anko immediately took out a kunai vigilantly, held it tightly in her hand, and her eyes revealed a wary look.

However, just as she was about to attack, the long-tongued man slowly spoke: "Why are you so nervous? Examiner, this is the kunai you dropped."

As he said this, he handed the kunai back to Mitarashi Anko with a weird smile on his face that made people shudder.

Then he pressed down the brim of his hat, silently retreated back into the crowd, and disappeared.

At this time, the scene was quiet and the atmosphere seemed a little solemn.

Seeing that all the candidates had arrived, Mitarashi Anko announced directly: "Okay! Now that everyone is here, the second exam... get ready... start!"

As she finished her words, the entire examination room suddenly fell into a tense atmosphere.

The candidates cheered up and prepared for the upcoming test.

"The rules for the second exam are also very simple."

"But before that, everyone should sign this consent form first!"

Mitarashi Anko took out a thick stack of consent forms from her clothes and slowly explained in front of everyone's puzzled looks.

"Because someone might die during the next exam, I need you to sign a contract first..."

"Otherwise I'll be in trouble..."

"Okay, let's start talking about the rules of the second exam..."

Mitarashi Anko said as she handed the consent form to Akito.

Mingren took out one and looked at it carefully. The content on it was nothing more than voluntary participation, and the death would not be blamed on Konoha and the examiners, etc.

"It looks like a waiver agreement..."

Mingren muttered.

"First, let's talk about the venue of this exam. There are 44 different entrances and exits outside the 44th exam room. The surrounding terrain includes forests and rivers, and in the middle is a giant tower."

"The distance from the tower to the entrance is about ten kilometers. An elimination process will be carried out in this limited area."

Mitarashi Anko put away the map, and then a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"The essence of this elimination match is... to fight for the scroll by any means necessary!"

"reel?"

Someone spoke in confusion.

"Yes, I have two scrolls in my hand, the Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth. I want you to fight among yourselves for these two scrolls."

"A total of 26 teams have passed the first test, and I will eliminate at least half of your teams this time."

"Thirteen of you will carry the Book of Heaven, and the other thirteen will carry the Book of Earth."

"As for the conditions for passing,... a team of three people must bring the Book of Heaven and the Book of Earth to the tower in the middle of the exam!"

Many of the candidates showed an eager expression.

"If that's the case... half of the team will lose their scrolls, and possibly their lives!"

Mitarashi Anko nodded.

"In addition, this exam also has a time limit. The total time for this exam is 120 hours, which is five days and five nights."

Her words immediately aroused dissatisfaction from the person below.

"What about eating?"

The one who spoke was Akimichi Chouji.

Luwan glanced at him from the side, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

"What a troublesome guy."

Yamanaka Jingye punched him directly on the head.

"Idiot! You must solve it yourself!"

Mitarashi Anko nodded.

"This is a primeval forest, filled with all kinds of original ecological food materials. You can get as much as you want from it!"

Pharmacist Kabuto also added: "Of course, there are also many poisonous insects and poisonous plants."

Sakura looked worried.

"This is terrible. As the time for this exam shortens, everyone is getting closer. The further we get, the less time we have to rest. The possibility of encountering other teams will also increase greatly..."

"Yeah, that's what makes it challenging!"

The Ming people rubbed their hands excitedly.

Zuo Zhu glanced at him coldly.

"This kind of stupid exam is not challenging at all for me..."

Zuo Zhu's words aroused the anger of the people around him, but he just glanced at them and many people shut their mouths that wanted to provoke him.

Orochimaru was among them.

His eyes were dim, and a sudden sixth sense alerted him, causing him to change his strategy before the exam...

At this time, a breeze blew, and the leaves rustled. Mitarashi Anko felt the breath of the wind and frowned slightly.

"It seems that quite a few contestants have already entered the forest..." she said to herself.

Before he could finish his words, a scream was heard, echoing throughout the forest.

The candidates couldn't help but turn pale and look at each other.

"Okay, let's get ready to enter the forest. Remember, teamwork is the key, and use secret codes to ask for help when you encounter danger. Good luck to you!" Mitarashi Anko announced loudly.

The candidates gripped their weapons tightly and took firm steps into the mysterious and dangerous forest of death.
