Zhang Yu stopped and turned to look at her.
"How?"
Anko opened its mouth.
The words that were already on the tip of her tongue were forcibly swallowed back down.
"I..."
"What?"
"I have something to ask you."
Zhang Yu turned around.
"Ask away."
Anko suppressed her emotions and changed the question on the spot.
Why didn't you Hand Seals when you cast the Genjutsu?
Zhang Yu looked puzzled.
Why do you need to form Hand Seals to cast Genjutsu spells?
Anko was stunned.
"Does Genjutsu not require Hand Seals?"
Do you need it?
"Don't you need it?"
Why is it necessary?
The two people engaged in a question-and-answer session.
Anko was quickly confused.
She had encountered many Genjutsu ninjas.
Whether casting or dispelling Genjutsu Genjutsu, Hand Seals are always necessary.
But Zhang Yu had only glanced at her briefly.
She then completely lost the ability to move.
To this day, she still doesn't know how she got infected.
"How did you do that?"
Anko couldn't help but press for more information.
Zhang Yu raised his hand and casually waved it in front of her.
"Eyes."
Raise your hand.
"They can all cast Genjutsu."
"Why make it so complicated?"
Anko stared at his hand, completely speechless.
Zhang Yu spoke too casually.
It seems that this is how Genjutsu are supposed to be used.
But she had never seen any Genjutsu ninja who could do that.
No Hand Seals.
Do not mobilize Chakra in advance.
With just a glance, he could render Special Jōnin incapable of resistance.
If Zhang Yu had intended to kill her, she wouldn't even know how she died.
Anko wanted to ask more questions.
The force binding the body vanished rapidly at that moment.
She regained control of her fingers.
Then came the arms, waist, and legs.
Anko swayed slightly and immediately grabbed the table next to her for support.
"Two minutes are up."
Zhang Yu lifted the tent flap.
The Genjutsu has been dispelled.
Anko flexed her wrists.
There were no physical injuries.
The Chakra was not disordered.
The feeling of being unable to move that I just experienced felt like it had never happened.
When she looked up, Zhang Yu had already stepped out of the tent.
Anko looked at the swaying curtain and murmured to herself.
" Genjutsu don't require Hand Seals?"
"Who taught him?"
Outside the tent.
Shiro and Uzuki Yugao stood in the same spot, waiting.
As soon as Zhang Yu came out, Bai went to greet him.
" Boss Zhang Yu."
Did you get the scroll?
Zhang Yu handed him the Heaven Scroll.
"Got it."
Keep it close to your body.
Bai took the scroll with both hands and placed it inside his clothes.
I will keep it safe.
"Many people will be vying for the scroll in the Forest of Death."
Zhang Yu instructed, "Don't take it out casually."
"And we mustn't let anyone else steal it."
Bai nodded earnestly.
"Clear."
Uzuki Yugao glanced into the tent.
The Anko haven't sprouted yet.
She didn't ask any further questions, but simply walked to Zhang Yu's other side.
" Lord Zhang Yu."
"Our arrangements are all complete."
"Enter from entrance number seventeen on the east side."
"Then let's go."
The three arrived at entrance number seventeen.
After confirming the identities of the guards, the Konoha Ninja opened the iron gate.
The second assessment has begun.
"After entering, you must reach the Central Tower within five days."
I wish you all the best.
Zhang Yu led Bai and Uzuki Yugao into the Forest of Death.
The iron gate closed again behind the three of them.
The trees in the forest are thick and sturdy.
The branches and leaves blocked most of the sunlight.
When ordinary test takers enter this area, they first observe the terrain and then look for a suitable hiding route.
Zhang Yu didn't pause at all.
He walked straight ahead.
The speed is not fast.
His steps were also very casual.
It didn't feel like participating in an assessment where an attack could happen at any moment; it felt more like taking a stroll in the backyard of a tavern.
The white one is on the left.
Uzuki Yugao walked on the right.
Neither of them raised any objections.
Zhang Yu doesn't need to hide his whereabouts.
With his abilities, any candidates who actively seek him out will only have themselves to blame.
Five hundred meters away.
Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju also entered the Forest of Death.
The two moved forward by stepping on tree branches, always keeping their distance from Zhang Yu.
Hashirama took a deep breath.
"The air here is nice."
"The trees are growing very well."
The spots swept across the surrounding area.
"Quieter than the streets of Konoha."
He landed on a thick tree branch Hashirama.
"The name 'Forest of Death' doesn't sound good."
"The environment here is actually quite nice."
The spot stopped on the other side.
"You can stay here if you like."
"That won't do."
Hashirama immediately shook his head.
"The tavern also serves meat and iced cola in the evening."
The two continued forward.
Hashirama looked in the direction Zhang Yu was, still somewhat confused.
"Does the boss really need our protection?"
"Of course not."
Ban answered very directly.
"Then why should we come in?"
He told us to follow him.
"Too."
Hashirama.
At that moment, a message popped up in the Tavern Chat Group.
Tobirama Senju: " Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha."
Tobirama Senju: "Have you already entered the Forest of Death?"
Hashirama Senju: "Just came in."
Madara Uchiha: "Hmm."
No sooner had the message been sent than a figure suddenly appeared in front of the two.
Tobirama Senju activated the Flying Thunder God and instantly stood in front of Hashirama.
Hashirama was startled.
Tobirama?
Why are you here?
Tobirama glanced at his clothes.
" The Flying Thunder God Formula is still active."
Hashirama looked down to examine the scene.
He quickly discovered a spell inside the clothing.
When did you carve it?
Before setting off.
Why is it engraved on my clothes?
"Easy to locate."
Hashirama looked displeased.
"At least tell me first."
"We'll talk about it next time."
Tobirama didn't have time to argue with him.
He took out a stack of picture books and shoved them directly into Hashirama's hand.
The album features illustrations of various herbs, flowers, and fruits.
Each species is indicated with its shape and suitable growing location.
Ban glanced at it.
"What's this?"
Cocktail ingredients.
The Tobirama points to several pages.
"These materials cannot be found in shops outside."
" The Forest of Death has a unique environment; we should be able to find it."
Hashirama turned a few pages.
"So you came all this way specifically to have us help you find something?"
"Right."
Tobirama said, "I want herbs, flowers, and fruits."
"Add it to the group's inventory once you find it."
"I'll handle this at the tavern tonight."
Hashirama looked at the thick stack of picture books.
"So much?"
"We'll take whatever we can find."
Tobirama then looked at Madara.
"The two of you searching together will be more efficient."
Before Ban could speak, another message popped up in the Tavern Chat Group.
Uchiha Izuna: "Madara-nii."
Uchiha Izuna: "The kitchen is also missing a few special fruits."
Uchiha Izuna: "It's marked in the album, please bring it back as well."
Madara Uchiha: "..."
Hashirama Senju: "Madara, you have a mission now too."
Madara Uchiha: "Shut up."
Tobirama took a step back.
"Big brother, don't just focus on having fun."
"I need to see the first batch of materials by tonight."
