Travel through Konoha and open treasure chests

“Must go up as soon as possible”

The thought passed away in a flash.

Bai Mingyu had already planned to swim upstream, but as soon as his eyes turned, he suddenly stopped somewhere.

It was at the bottom of the lake 40 to 50 meters deep, among the messy water plants and mud, and a strange pattern could be vaguely seen. Just when he was about to take a closer look, the nearest catfish monster had already pounced over, bringing it with him. The shock quickly spread to the bottom of the lake, and the pattern also shook, revealing its complete appearance.

It looked like an open box. The whole box was covered with dark green patina, but there was a palm-sized piece of stone inside, which looked like a small fragment.

The next moment, the catfish monster had rushed in front of him.

"Water Escape Water Fang Bullet Technique"

Bai Mingyu formed a seal with his hands, and the water mass in front of him quickly compressed and condensed. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a hard water block, and under Bai Mingyu's control, it collided head-on with the catfish monster.

The two forces collided, causing violent fluctuations at the bottom of the water.

With the help of this recoil, Bai Mingyu turned around and quickly approached the bottom of the lake. He reached out and touched the stone piece in his arms, then turned around and swam up the lake.

Three or four catfish monsters surrounded him.

Under the water, they swam very fast. In the blink of an eye, they broke through the water curtain and came to Bai Mingyu. Their mouths opened wide, as if they wanted to tear him into pieces.

At the critical moment, Bai Mingyu waved his sleeve snow again, condensing a piece of water under his feet into ice, and then stepped hard with the sole of his foot, and jumped out of the water at an accelerated speed.

"Mr. Bai Yu"

Quan's voice came, and then a rope was thrown far away from the shore, and Bai Mingyu grabbed it with quick hands and eyes.

Quan pulled the rope hard, and Bai Mingyu kept kicking the water. Together, the two of them soon reached the shore of the island in the middle of the lake. Several catfish monsters chased them not far from the shore and swam back and forth several times. Finally, they were still unwilling to give up. It sank and returned to the bottom of the lake.

"saved."

Bai Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief and sat down directly on the ground. Fighting underwater was very strenuous on his physical strength, especially since he was still wearing a weight-bearing vest. If he had persisted for so long, he was almost reaching his limit.

An expression of relief appeared on Quan's face, and he sat on the ground regardless of his appearance, breathing lightly.

Just now, she had used up a lot of energy to swim to the shore carrying Uoyuki Xiyan on her back, and her clothes and hair were still dripping wet.

After a moment, Bai Mingyu turned his head and looked behind him.

Looking across the trees on the island in the center of the lake, you can vaguely see a tall tower-shaped building. It seems to be the only large building on the island.

"Is that high tower the final destination?"

Quan also turned to look in that direction, nodded, and said softly, "Well, that should be it. After all, there is only one tower on the island in the middle of the lake."

Bai Mingyu withdrew his gaze and looked at his nose and heart: "Rest for another twenty minutes, and then let's go there."

From the shore where they are now to the tall tower in the center of the island in the lake, the visual distance is no more than one kilometer, so it stands to reason that they can set off immediately. But both of them are not in good condition now. For the sake of caution, it is better to recover some strength before taking action. Izumi didn't have any objections to this, and put his hands on his legs to silently refine chakra.

Time passes by

Finally, Bai Mingyu stood up with both hands. Quan next to him opened his eyes in time, and the two looked at each other: "Let's go."

One person lifted up Maoyue Xiyan, and the three of them slowly walked towards the tower.

Passing through a tall stone door, the light above the head suddenly dimmed, and what appeared in front of you was a wide hall. Several pillars around it supported the corridor above. In the middle stood a tall bluestone statue. I don’t know where it was. A statue of Dai Mizukage.

When Bai Mingyu and the others came in, there was already a team in the hall.

Judging from the forehead protectors, this team is obviously from Kirigakure Village.

One of them had a head of rare white hair, and the teeth in his mouth were shaped like saw teeth. Behind his back were two knives tied up with bandages. From the appearance, he was somewhat similar to Gui Deng Shui Yue.

When he heard the footsteps, the man turned his head, grinned, and then held his hands to the handles of the double swords behind his back.

"Has someone finally come?"

""

Bai Mingyu keenly felt a hint of murderous intent.

The next moment, the man stood up suddenly, sprinted over extremely quickly, drew out his ninja sword and swept across it. The speed was so fast that he even set off a whirlwind in mid-air.

次拉

Bai Mingyu pushed Quan and Uoyue Xiyan, and then jumped to the other side. However, the opponent's sword skills were stronger than expected. Even though he avoided the blade, there was still a sharp airflow that cut through Bai Mingyu. With the clothes on his chest, the ninja of Kirigakure Village opposite him had a stern look on his face, with a cold smile on his face.

"What are you doing? Why do you take action when you disagree? This is the gathering place."

Izumi shouted.

"Oh." Gui Deng Man Yue grinned, revealing a mouth full of shark-like fangs: "Yes, it is the gathering place, but the exam regulations say that you are not allowed to snatch scrolls in this place."

""

Bai Mingyu's pupils shrank.

At first, he had the same questions as Izumi, but now it seems that there is no need to continue asking. The rules of this exam do mention that it is allowed to snatch scrolls at any place and in any way, and the gathering place is not excluded. In other words, it is acquiesced that this tower is also one of the places where scrolls can be snatched. Even here, it is still possible. not in a safe state

However, the average person's mindset would never think of this. This is a deep meaning hidden in the rules.

"I see"

No wonder the team from Kirigakure came over so quickly. They probably didn't collect the scrolls at all. Instead, they crossed the forest immediately and rowed to the island in the middle of the lake, waiting to snatch the scrolls from the second arriving team.

The teams that have gone through successive battles and worked so hard to get here are often exhausted. It is difficult for them to make an effective counterattack against those who are just waiting for work.

Thinking of this, Bai Mingyu's heart became clear.

However, Gui Deng Man Yue seemed to be targeting him. After missing a single blow, he immediately followed closely and raised his fist: "The art of the powerful water wrist"

Before he finished speaking, Gui Deng Man Yue's arms twitched like running water, and then quickly expanded. His muscles tripled in an instant, and he punched Bai Mingyu hard.

"iron block"

Bai Mingyu's arms condensed a touch of steel-like luster, and he crossed it in front of him to block it. However, under the power of Hao Shui's wrist, he flew backwards, rolled over and stood up five or six meters away. At this time, the opposite side The ghost lamp Man Yue had already peeled off the bandages on the two swords, and immediately saw a dazzling blue light emanating from the swords.

Double-knife flounder

One of the seven ninja swords in Kirigakure Village, and also one of the most powerful among the seven.

Compared with the other six swords, the special effects of this Ninja sword are
