#57 - Chapter 57 Bullying the Honest Man Sets Out for the Central Tower

"These two women are really troublesome..."

"What did you say?!"

Hearing the voice, Sakura and Ino looked at Shikamaru together, their eyes seeming to want to eat him alive, scaring Shikamaru into taking a step back with a guilty conscience.

"No... nothing..."

"Hmph!"

The two women snorted coldly, glaring at him as if warning him, and then started arguing again.

Seeing this, Shikamaru wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Women are so scary!

Just as he was thinking that he must never offend women in the future, Naruto suddenly said, "Be quiet."

Hearing Naruto's voice, Sakura obediently quieted down.

Even Ino just glanced at Naruto and didn't continue arguing with Sakura.

After seeing Naruto's true strength, Ino didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Naruto.

And seeing Sakura's fear of Naruto, who knew if Naruto would hit women?

Shikamaru looked at Sakura and Ino being so obedient, and was speechless.

So they only bully honest people?

"So troublesome~" Shikamaru looked helpless, thinking about what kind of person would be easy to be in this world?

Seeing Sakura and Ino stop, Sasuke took back the wound medicine while taking the opportunity, and said coldly, "I can apply it myself."

Ino and Sakura stopped talking,

Wanting to say something, but worried about making Naruto unhappy, they could only give up helplessly.

"What scroll did you get?" Naruto suddenly asked Hinata.

"Heaven... Scroll of Heaven." Hinata answered subconsciously.

Kiba Inuzuka on the side looked at Hinata with some helplessness.

Can this be said to people casually?

What if other ninjas who got the Scroll of Earth heard it?

But the next second, when he saw Naruto hand a Scroll of Earth to Hinata, his face immediately became happy.

"This is for you." Naruto said lightly.

"Ah, this... I can't accept it!"

As soon as Hinata refused, Kiba Inuzuka took it unceremoniously.

"Naruto is offering his kindness, Hinata, don't be polite with Naruto!"

"Thank you, Naruto!"

Naruto glanced at Kiba and ignored him.

He gave the scroll to Hinata purely because there was an extra scroll, which he could use to thank Hinata for her concern.

Although he was not injured, he felt a little warm to be cared about.

Kiba and Hinata are companions, so his acceptance is Hinata's acceptance.

Ino looked at Naruto giving Hinata the Scroll of Earth and was a little tempted, but thinking that Naruto only had two Scrolls of Earth, she hesitated and didn't ask for it.

Naruto only has two scrolls, giving one away and keeping one for himself.

If she asks for it again, she will definitely get beaten up, right?

"Rest in place tonight and leave tomorrow." Naruto looked at the gradually darkening sky and made this decision considering Sasuke's injury.

Team Ino and Team Hinata originally planned to rest and make plans tomorrow.

Now seeing that Naruto and the others are going to stay in place to rest, they naturally plan to stick together!

With Naruto around, it can be said to be very reliable, and there is no need to worry about danger at all!

Not far away, Team Neji had been watching Naruto and the others from a distance and did not leave.

"Neji, what are we going to do next?" Tenten asked, looking at Naruto and the others who were lighting a fire below to prepare for rest.

"Why don't we go down and rest together?" Rock Lee suggested.

Neji looked at Naruto, was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "No, let's go directly to the central tower!"

He didn't want to go out and get closer to Naruto and the others.

There is no need to deliberately integrate into unfamiliar circles.

......

One kilometer away from where Naruto and the others were, Orochimaru was standing on a tree quietly waiting for something.

Before long, Yakushi Kabuto appeared behind him.

"Orochimaru-sama!" Yakushi Kabuto respectfully addressed Orochimaru.

"Well, there have been some changes in the plan, the plan for Sasuke will be delayed for a while." Orochimaru said in his magnetic, slightly hoarse voice.

"Changes?" Yakushi Kabuto was a little puzzled, "Could it be that the Third Hokage and the others discovered it?"

In his opinion, the only one in Konoha who could stop Orochimaru-sama was the Third Hokage.

"No, it's Uzumaki Naruto!" Orochimaru said.

"Uzumaki Naruto?"

Yakushi Kabuto looked surprised, "He's just a Genin, right? And he's only 12 years old this year..."

"Kabuto."

Orochimaru turned around, with a meaningful smile on his face, looked at him and said, "This is the most talented child I have ever discovered, more pleasing to me than all the children I have seen so far!"

Yakushi Kabuto pushed his glasses, lowered his head slightly and said, "I understand, your subordinate will investigate him!"

Although Orochimaru didn't say it clearly, Yakushi Kabuto understood what Orochimaru meant!

This Uzumaki Naruto - extremely dangerous!

Even so strong that even Orochimaru-sama is afraid of him!

"Don't give up on Sasuke either, I want this child too!" Orochimaru added before melting into the mud and disappearing in place.

"Yes, Orochimaru-sama!"

Yakushi Kabuto replied to the place where Orochimaru disappeared, then raised his head, pushed his glasses, looked in the direction of Naruto and the others, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Uzumaki Naruto..."

......

Early the next morning,

Team 7, who had rested in place for one night, prepared to head towards the central tower.

The night was very quiet yesterday, and no one attacked. Not even wild animals!

I don't know if it was deterred by Naruto and the others' previous battle, or if other candidates were too far away to come over.

No matter which reason it was, Naruto would not continue to wait for them in place.

"Naruto, can we go together?" Hinata asked in a low voice, watching Naruto and the others prepare to leave.

Naruto glanced at Hinata and the others, and said lightly, "Up to you, as long as you can keep up."

"Yes, thank you, Naruto!" Hinata said happily.

Kiba Inuzuka shook his head at Hinata.

He originally wanted to find a place to squat and guard other candidates to reduce his opponents in the third exam.

But since Hinata wanted to follow Naruto, then follow him!

It just so happened that he also wanted to find evidence to prove that this Naruto was a fake Naruto!

Ino on the side looked at Team Hinata and Team Naruto who were preparing to leave together with some envy.

"Damn it, why didn't we collect the scrolls!" Ino muttered unhappily.

Because they didn't collect the scrolls, they couldn't leave with Sasuke and the others.

They still need to spend time looking for other ninja teams to snatch the scrolls!

"Ino, we should be leaving too." Shikamaru urged.

"Coming, coming!"

Ino replied impatiently, then took one last look at Sasuke and Sakura, sighed and followed Shikamaru and Choji in another direction.

Sakura heard the movement of Ino and the others, turned around, looked at Ino who was leaving, and suddenly had the idea of helping Ino.

But... her abilities are limited, she can't do anything without Naruto and Sasuke.

In the end, she could only mentally support Ino to successfully pass the exam!
