"Oh? There aren't any teams with the Yin Scroll at Entrance B?"

Hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Hatake Kakashi also frowned slightly and said, "In that case, let's start the hunt! Ten minutes is enough time for us to complete the exam. And even if we go to the Central Tower, as long as we maintain our speed, it will only take one minute."

"Okay, then let's go hunting once we enter the Doomsday Forest!"

Hatake Kakashi finished speaking, Uchiha Yue slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile, and said, "According to my observation, there are a total of three teams entering the Doomsday Forest through Entrance B. Although they all possess Yin Scroll, if we can seize the Yin Scroll from them, we can eliminate a total of six teams!"

Then, Uchiha Yue looked at Hatake Kakashi and Sarutobi Danzō in front of him and continued, "It's very interesting, isn't it?"

"Moon, don't forget our goal!"

Just as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Hatake Kakashi's expression suddenly turned serious. He said solemnly, "Yue, our goal is to stop all the members of those teams, not to eliminate them. So, as long as there's a possibility of stopping those team members, don't eliminate them, Yue!"

"Okay, I understand."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly, though he was now somewhat curious as to why Hatake Kakashi's demands were so high.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Yue may never have imagined that Hatake Kakashi's rigorous self-discipline was driven by the desire to surpass him. In Hatake Kakashi's view, only by fighting more ninjas could he become stronger and ultimately surpass Uchiha Yue. This led to Hatake Kakashi's goal in participating in the Chunin Ninja Exams not being to obtain the title of Chunin, but rather to fight more powerful opponents and enhance his own strength.

Immediately afterwards...

After Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi entered the Doomsday Forest through Entrance B, Uchiha Yue prepared to begin their hunt. However, to Uchiha Yue's slight surprise, they didn't become hunters upon entering Doomsday Forest. Instead, a team Uchiha Yue had entered through Entrance B1 was already hidden at Entrance B, ready to ambush Hatake Kakashi and Hatake Kakashi!

"The Chunin Ninja Exams are really interesting!"

Using his Purple Eye to discern the intentions of the Genin team, Uchiha Yue immediately looked at Hatake Kakashi and Sarutobi Danzō and said, "Kakashi, Danzo, prepare for battle!"

"Yes!"

Upon receiving Uchiha Yue's orders, Hatake Kakashi and Sarutobi Danzō became fully alert, though neither believed the Genin squad ahead posed any threat. However, just as Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi were preparing to ambush the approaching Genin squad, Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to observe the surroundings. He suddenly frowned slightly and whispered, "Kakashi, Danzo, another Genin squad is heading our way. If I'm not mistaken, those Genin squads have reached a consensus and are preparing to deal with us in the Doomsday Forest!"

At this, a look of seriousness flashed in Uchiha Yue's eyes. He then turned his gaze to Sarutobi Danzō and continued, "Kakashi, I'm not worried about you, I'm just a little worried about Danzo. So, Danzo, when we fight later, just focus on protecting yourself! Kakashi and I both have the ability to protect ourselves, so please don't get hurt!"

"Yes, I understand, Tsuki-kun!"

Clearly, Sarutobi Danzō was also aware of his own strength, so the instant Uchiha Yue finished speaking, he had already prepared to defend himself. At the same time, Uchiha Yue was ready for battle, no longer focusing on Sarutobi Danzō's self-preservation as before. After all, Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi had tested Sarutobi Danzō's strength and were very clear about Sarutobi Danzō level of power.

Immediately afterwards...

The Genin squad that had entered through the B1 entrance of the Doomsday Forest had already appeared before Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi. Based on their observation, Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi realized that the ninja squad before them was also Genin squad from Konoha. Therefore, upon seeing Forehead Protector Konoha Genin worn by those Konoha, not only did Hatake Kakashi's face darken, but even Sarutobi Danzō said indignantly, "Tsuki-kun, Kakashi- kun, aren't they being a little too despicable!"

"You're also a ninja from Konoha, yet you're joining forces with ninjas from other villages to deal with you!"

"Moon-kun, Kakashi -kun, you must teach them a lesson!"

"Rest assured."

Upon hearing Sarutobi Danzō's words, Uchiha Yue smiled slightly and said, "I already knew they were from Konoha, so we need to eliminate them as soon as possible! Kakashi, don't forget what you just said: anyone in the Doomsday Forest who intends to attack us is an enemy, not a comrade from Konoha, understand?"

"Um!"

As soon as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Hatake Kakashi nodded heavily, his right hand gripping the White Fang Blade tightly.

Then, just as the Konoha Genin squad in front of Uchiha Yue and the others began searching for them, Uchiha Yue made a hand gesture to Hatake Kakashi. The next second, Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi appeared before the Konoha Genin. Moreover, Uchiha Yue was wielding the Ghost Tiger Hatake Kakashi, clearly intending to kill the Konoha Genin!

"Uchiha Yue has appeared! Everyone, prepare to engage him!"

"Yes!"

Upon noticing Uchiha Yue's appearance, the Konoha Genin, possessing excellent combat skills, immediately prepared to engage. However, just as the Konoha Genin gearing up to deal with Uchiha Yue, Hatake Kakashi had already moved behind them. Thus, without Uchiha Yue even needing to act, Hatake Kakashi was able to begin reaping the rewards from behind, killing all the Konoha Genin.

But...

To Uchiha Yue's utter surprise, just as Hatake Kakashi was about to reap the rewards...

Suddenly, two figures attacked from behind Hatake Kakashi, seemingly intending to kill him first!

"Kakashi, heart!"
