Chapter 293
"I am the head examiner of the second stage of the Jonin exam, Baki."
Gaara's sensei, Hidden Sand's famous Jonin and Baki, white cloth covers him Half of his face, hands behind his back, said: "Welcome to the forbidden area of Hidden Sand Village, confused sand desert!"
"Forbidden area? Here?" An exam candidate looked strangely at the piece behind Baki Sand desert, Land-of-Wind has yellow sand everywhere. Sand desert is normal, but he didn't see anything special about the sand desert behind Baki.
"Yes, this is the most dangerous place in Land-of-Wind." Baki is like a crazy tour guide, telling the terrifying of this sandy desert in a weird tone: "In the chaotic sandy desert There are often mirages that confuse people who are trapped in the sand desert. They don’t exist in the direction. No matter what, they will eventually get lost and die of thirst. Moreover, quicksand will be produced everywhere in the confused sand desert, devouring people’s lives, inside. There are still many cute little animals living in them. I hope you will like them."
Baki's originally not handsome face, said such words, it made a crowd of exam candidates seem to be blowing. There was a cool breeze. Although everyone knew that Baki was deliberately scaring them, many people were still scared.
"What about the content of the exam?" Shikamaru was still more calm, drowsily said with his hands in his trouser pockets.
"We previously buried ten unique kunai in the chaotic sand desert, with Hidden Sand Village’s unique Sealing Jutsu style on it. Within 24 hours, we found the Kunai and walked out of the sand desert. Even if you pass the second stage exam."
Finding a kunai in such a large desert is no different from finding a needle in a haystack, but Baki is not over yet. What he said next will make the exam candidates even more despair.
"I almost forgot to remind you that those kunai are all made of wood, so be careful when digging. Damaged kunai don't count."
Baki this sentence , So that the originally full-fledged Hidden Stone exam candidate suddenly collapsed, and originally wanted to use Earth-Style Ninjutsu to dig a large area, but if it can't damage the Kunai, Earth-Style Ninjutsu definitely cannot use it.
So big sandy desert? Is it digging by hand? Whoever wants to dig it, the surface temperature of the sand in the daytime exceeds 70 degrees, even if it rained before, but under the sun, the sand will heat up very quickly. Could there be a ninja with an engineer shovel?
"In other words, all 23 groups of people here may be unqualified."
"Yes, I hope you have good luck." Baki's words really can’t hear the slightest kindness. In fact, he still didn't say a word... It's possible that all 23 groups of people would die inside.
"Next, let’s talk about the conditions for failing the exam. First, someone in the team died or was unable to continue fighting; second, no special kunai was found; third, twenty-four hours beyond the time limit. , It’s not allowed to leave Chakra Sand Desert in the middle of the test, otherwise it will be regarded as an automatic waiver. Don’t want to imitate the dog and steal chicken. We have set up a sense barrier around the Dog and Steal Chicken. We have recorded your chakra features, as long as you leave. We will find out immediately and disqualify. Now everyone is going to get the consent form, and the exam will officially start in one hour!"
Like Chunin Exams, this exam is in danger of death, so The consent form must be signed first, which is the so-called evasion of responsibility.
After each team has signed the consent form, they are scattered in different places to wait for the start of the exam. The second stage exam is extremely cruel. Even the ninja of the same village must fight for the pass token. kunai while fighting.
If the First Stage exam is a test of the courage and fighting spirit of a ninja, the second stage is strength, which is a multi-faceted assessment of tactics.
"Shikamaru, the tactics are up to you." Neji looked Shikamaru, without the slightest hesitation and handed over the troublesome mission to Shikamaru. Although Neji and Shikamaru didn’t have much contact, But Neji trusted Naruto, and Naruto said that Shikamaru can.
"Although it is troublesome, let me explain." Shikamaru scratched his head, and after Neji and Bai both showed listening expressions, they said:
" This mission can be regarded as a treasure hunt game. Treasure is the kunai buried in this sand desert. Baki said that this sand desert often produces mirages, and will be completely lost in it. I guess Hidden Sand Village might be in this regard. Make some articles."
"How to make articles?"
"Before, during the First Stage exam, you all found out."
Neji eyes shined and said: "You mean Genjutsu?!"
"Yes, Hidden Sand Village may use multiple ninjas to use a wide range of Genjutsu in this exam."
"Well, it is indeed possible." Bai squeezed his chin and said: "Because Baki said, this sandy desert will have a mirage, and it will make people feel disoriented, so even if you can't find a way out after entering, Subconsciously think it is the peculiarity of the sand desert itself, but will not think of Genjutsu, because of this subconscious thought, it should not be found without an excellent Sensor Ninja. If the sand desert itself really has a peculiar power, add Putting on False Surroundings Jutsu should play a great role."
"I think so too, and Baki said, Kunai is wooden, very fragile, but it can’t be damaged, which means it can’t. Use Ninjutsu to search for a wide range, but the sandy desert is too big, the time is only 24 hours, and we don’t know how deep the kunai is buried, so whether it is to explore the road or search for the kunai, it depends on you, Neji."
"No problem, leave it to me." Neji said confidently.
"The next step is the problem of water sources. If there is a mirage in the desert, there must be an oasis inside, but there are too many exam candidates. If people from different teams encounter in the same oasis , The probability of fighting is very high, and even the water source may be poisoned by people, so we must not rely on the oasis here. This matter will trouble you, white."
"Don't worry, leave it to me. Well, although I can’t use too strong Water-Style Jutsu here, it’s still enough and to spare to make some drinking water."
"Then it’s what Baki said, “cute little Animals', I don’t believe it would be a harmless animal like kittens and puppies."
"Yes," the white eyes narrowed, usually disappeared in gentle appearance, showing shrewdness at this time. On the other hand, "Puppeteers of Hidden Sand Village are very good at making poisons. The'small animals' that Baki said may be some highly poisonous poison insects. I have to take precautions against this. This is for you."
Bai took out three green pills from his ninja bag, put one in his mouth and pressed it under his tongue, and gave the other two to Shikamaru and Neji.
"This is the antidote I made based on the master's formula. General toxins can be immune to three hours."
"That means we are best Pass the exam within three hours, right." Shikamaru put the pill into his mouth, then his face became serious, and said: "Next is the most important point, and the biggest problem we face. Our group has Neji, it’s not difficult to find kunai, but the most important thing we need to pay attention to is that other teams snatch our kunai."
Neji and Bai's face sank, this is really a big trouble.
Just like what Shikamaru said before, it is possible that all 23 teams will fail. As long as one Kunai breaks, the number of teams that can pass the exam will be reduced by one. Not every team For those with a Sensor Ninja like Neji, for those groups that can't find Kunai without Sensor Ninja, their biggest hope is to block the exit and snatch someone else's Kunai.
Moreover, you have to be careful not to damage the kunai during the battle. This is really a huge problem.
Shikamaru took out a blank scroll and a pencil, and quickly arranged tactics.
"First of all, I have an open field of view. If there is an enemy attack, I will first use Shadow Imitation Jutsu to restrain the opponent, and the second is white. Your Wind-Style Ninjutsu can be the largest Attack the enemy in the range, and you are also a Medical-nin. Whether it is me or Neji who is injured, I have to ask you. Finally, the queen of Neji, you have a 360 angle of view. You must always pay attention to whether there is an enemy from behind a sneak attack, and you must also search for the target kunai. Mission is the heaviest, can it be completed?"
"Of course it can."
"Our primary goal is to find the target kunai. After finding the target, we will immediately go to the end point. It is possible in exam candidates. Some people gave up looking for kunai at first and went straight to the end to wait for the killing and grab the kunai, so we must be very careful before we pass the exam, accidentally it will be fatal."
"In general, it is. "In this way," Shikamaru closed the scroll and said: "If there are any circumstances, it will be so much."
Shikamaru has done his best to arrange the most perfect plan in the shortest time. If there are any changes, it is unplanned, and it is beyond Shikamaru's ability to predict the future.
Each group is discussing their own plans. Some people are really happy and some are worried. It is natural that there are sense experts in the group. It is natural to rejoice. Yeah.
Anyway, the exam time is coming soon. A total of 23 teams who passed the First Stage exam rushed into the forbidden area of Hidden Sand Village in order to compete for the quota of Jonin. Many people were all in At this moment, I stepped onto the Road of No Return.
Just after all the exam candidates entered the chaotic desert, and after Baki went to the finish line to wait for the passer, two heads came out of the sand.
"I really like watching the scene better."
