Chapter 110 Tower
"Okay, Asuma, let's go first." Haneda said helplessly as he saw the two of them were about to argue.
"Yes, Brother Haneda!"
Asuma immediately turned around and left with Haneda, not paying any attention to the furious Obito behind him.
"See you at the end, Kakashi." Haneda walked a few steps and turned back.
"See you at the finish line."
…………
Training Ground No. 44 is inside the Death Forest.
There are countless large beasts inside, as well as many poisonous snakes and spiders lurking in the dark.
But for Uchiha Haneda, who grew up on the edge of the Death Forest, these were already commonplace.
"Brother Haneda, where are we going now? Are we going to find the Scroll of Earth?" Asuma asked casually, holding a piece of grass in his mouth.
Class 9 was given the Scroll of Heaven. If they want to enter the third exam, they only need to obtain the Scroll of Earth.
Judging from the ratio of the number of Scrolls of Heaven to Scrolls of Earth, the probability of defeating the opponent and obtaining the Scroll of Earth is fifty percent.
But Haneda was not in the mood to gamble with a fifty percent probability.
"Go directly to the high tower in the center and wait for the gathered people to be sent over." Haneda said.
"As expected of Brother Haneda, you are so thoughtful. It is much more efficient to wait for someone in the tower than to look for him!"
Asuma worshipped Haneda everyday, then turned back to Hong and said,
"Let's go, Hong, we'll listen to Brother Haneda and go to the tower first."
…………
Over at Class 7.
Obito, Kakashi and others also entered the Forest of Death.
Although Obito had always been dissatisfied with Kakashi, he took the initiative to ask:
"Kakashi, where to go next?"
"The tower." Kakashi said.
"Tower?"
Obito didn't react for a moment, and asked again,
"Isn't the tower the destination? We need to collect the two scrolls first, stupid Kakashi!"
At this time, Lin explained:
"Obito, Kakashi means that we just need to go to the tower and wait for someone."
“This way you don’t have to spend too much energy looking for people.”
"Souga!" Obito naturally wouldn't refute Lin, but suddenly he thought of Haneda and asked subconsciously,
"Kakashi, Haneda doesn't think so too, does he?"
Hearing this, Kakashi smiled and said nothing.
He knew that with Haneda's efficiency-seeking (and lazy) personality, he would definitely not want to spend a lot of energy to go to the Death Forest to look for someone.
…………
In the center of the 44th training ground, inside the high tower.
Since the second exam took a long time, Nagano Hiroshi, as the chief examiner, usually had to sit idly in the tower unless an emergency occurred.
He sat there bored and made himself a pot of tea.
Just as he poured himself a glass and was about to drink, someone he didn't expect came in.
It was a man named Hatake Sakumo with long silver-white hair and a short sword on his back.
"Sakumo-sama!"
Nagano Hiroshi quickly stood up and greeted Sakumo respectfully.
Sakumo is a hero of Konoha and it is difficult to meet him on a normal day.
Nagano Hiroshi was fortunate to meet him today, probably because of the help of his students Haneda and others.
But it was very unreasonable that the instructor came to watch just as the exam started, which was the first day.
Nagano Hiroshi reminded, "Master Sakumo is here to visit the students?"
"It's still early for the exam to end. Judging from past experience, it will take at least until the next day for someone to collect the two scrolls of heaven and earth."
While speaking, Nagano Hiroshi did not forget to hand the tea he had poured earlier to Sakumo.
Shuo Mao took the tea, smelled it first, then took a sip, moistened his throat, and said:
“This is the norm, but my students don’t really like to follow the routine.”
"Master Sakumo means that they will come directly here and set up an ambush?"
"But usually the first ones to come here are the strong teams, and you are only guiding the ninjas who have just graduated."
Nagano Hiroshi quickly thought of a possibility, but considering the strength level of the newly graduated Genin, he found it incredible.
"They have completed many dangerous missions, including S-rank missions."
Sakumo said with some pride.
But due to the ninja's habit of concealing information, he didn't say much about Haneda and the others.
And just this little bit of information revealed by Sakumo shocked Nagano Hiroshi.
A newly graduated Genin can participate in an S-rank mission?!
A Chunin can only barely get a ticket to an S-rank mission!!!
If he knew that Haneda had killed many ninjas with strength above the rank of Jonin, he would probably be so surprised that his jaw would drop.
At this time, a reporting voice came from outside the door, and a Chunin pushed open the door and walked in.
"Someone has already arrived at the tower... Lord Sakumo!"
He had barely said half a sentence when the Chunin saw Sakumo and immediately saluted excitedly.
When he heard someone had arrived, Sakumo thought of Haneda first.
He walked towards the window and scanned the Death Forest for any movement.
A startled bird flew over the Death Forest.
There were three familiar chakras approaching rapidly and without any concealment.
It’s Haneda and the others!
…………
"We're almost there, Brother Haneda. Should we ambush the area and set traps first?"
Asuma looked up at the tall tower not far away and asked Haneda out of habit.
"You and Hong make these preparations. I'm going to practice near the tower." Haneda said casually.
He was not very interested in bullying weaklings, so these ninjas with almost Chunin strength were just right for Asuma and Hong to train.
Suddenly, Haneda felt a familiar gaze staring at him.
He opened the Three-magatama Sharingan, looked up at the tower, and Uncle Sakumo's face appeared before him.
"Uncle Sakumo is here too." Haneda said with a smile.
"Teacher Sakumo? He wouldn't be here to practice with you, Brother Haneda?" Asuma guessed.
Soon, Nagano Hiroshi followed Sakumo out of the tower.
He looked at Haneda who was sitting on a big rock at the entrance of the tower practicing the transformation of the nature of lightning chakra, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
While other Genin were still planning how to hide the scroll and how to get another scroll, someone had already arrived at the destination and was sitting at the entrance to practice arrogantly...
This shows how confident he is in his own strength. He doesn't worry about himself at all and allows his two teammates to set traps outside and prepare for an ambush.
Nagano Hiroshi felt the powerful chakra and precise lightning technique of Haneda.
He subconsciously observed a moment of silence for the second team that arrived.
This was a crushing battle without any suspense.
Haneda's attitude was clear: even the best in the Chunin Exams were just a threshold to see him.
Moreover, from Nagano Hiroshi's perspective, Haneda's two teammates are not simple either.
The traps they set were simple and practical, and were specially designed to match a set of tactics.
In order to defeat them both, it may take at least two Chunins to take action!
