The Flying Thunder God Formula is activated.
Tobirama an instant.
From the moment they appeared to the moment they left, it took less than a minute.
Hashirama stood on a tree branch, holding the atlas.
"He came here specifically to arrange jobs for us?"
His complexion wasn't good either.
They were clearly there to secretly protect Zhang Yu.
Now, however, he has become a tool for Tobirama and Izuna to collect materials.
The chat group quickly became lively.
Tobirama Senju: "Try to keep the materials intact."
Uchiha Izuna: "Don't crush the fruit."
Hashirama Senju: "We also have to protect the boss."
Tobirama Senju: "With the boss's strength, he doesn't need your close protection."
Uchiha Izuna: "Madara-nii, please."
Madara Uchiha: "Understood."
Hashirama Senju: " Tobirama, you're exploiting your older brother."
Tobirama Senju: "You haven't been eating less every day."
Hashirama Senju: "What does this have to do with collecting materials?"
Zabuza Momochi: "The tavern's front hall is normal."
Bai: "We've entered the forest."
Uzuki Yugao: "No other candidates have been found yet."
Messages kept coming in.
Zhang Yu walked ahead, the chat interface in front of him constantly refreshing.
After watching for a while, he finally couldn't help but speak up.
Zhang Yu: "You guys have a lot of free time?"
The chat group fell silent instantly.
Hashirama, who had been complaining just moments before, fell silent.
Tobirama did not press the matter further.
Izuna also left the chat.
Ban looked at the now quiet group chat and closed the interface.
Let's go.
Hashirama was holding the atlas.
"Find the materials first?"
"Search along the way."
"Let's head towards the Central Tower while we're at it."
The two slowed down, checking the surrounding plants as they continued to follow.
Zhang Yu was also heading towards the Central Tower.
He wasn't going to waste time on the periphery.
The Heaven Scroll is in my hands.
All that's missing is the Earth Scroll.
When you get close to the Central Tower, just grab one from any team.
Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from the branches ahead.
A Kunai high speed.
The target was Zhang Yu's chest.
Just as Uzuki Yugao was about to draw her sword, Zhang Yu had already raised his right hand.
Two fingers together.
The Kunai rested steadily between his fingers.
The metal tail was still trembling slightly.
Zhang Yu glanced at the Kunai and casually tossed it to the ground.
Three figures leaped down from the surrounding trees.
Sunagakure Forehead Protector.
The three of them stood apart, surrounding Zhang Yu, Bai, and Uzuki Yugao in the middle.
The lead Sunagakure ninja swept his gaze over the three.
A young man wearing martial arts uniform.
A handsome young man.
There was also a woman wearing a purple cheongsam.
They didn't recognize Zhang Yu.
They were even more unaware that Uzuki Yugao came from Konoha's Anbu.
In their view, this team didn't even know basic security.
After entering the Forest of Death, they still dared to walk directly in the open.
They were practically delivered to their doorstep.
Just then, a system notification popped up.
[bite!]
[New quest triggered.]
[Task Name: Heaven and Earth Scrolls Sale Plan]
[Mission Requirements: Steal the Heaven and Earth Scrolls from those you dislike and then publicly sell them in front of the Central Tower.]
[Initial mission reward: 2000 gold coins.]
[Final Reward: Calculated based on the total sales revenue of the Heaven and Earth Scrolls.]
After reading the task, Zhang Yu smiled.
He originally only intended to steal one Earth Scroll.
Now it seems that one is far from enough.
Aside from familiar faces, all the other test-takers can be considered as targets.
If you don't like it, just steal it.
After you've looted it, take it to the Central Tower and sell it.
You can both earn money and receive system rewards.
The leader of the Sunagakure assumed Zhang Yu was afraid when he didn't speak.
"Hand over the scroll."
Don't make me say it a second time.
Another Sunagakure blocked their retreat.
You're lucky.
"If you honestly hand over the scroll, we might spare your lives."
The third person gripped the Kunai.
Don't even think about resisting.
"This is the Forest of Death."
Even if you die, no one will stand up for you.
Zhang Yu felt helpless upon hearing this.
Every time I encounter someone like this, their excuses are pretty much the same.
First, surround them.
Further threats.
Finally, they forced us to hand over the items.
They can't even rephrase it.
Uzuki Yugao slowly drew her long sword.
The blade is drawn from its sheath.
She stepped forward, blocking Zhang Yu's right side.
" Lord Zhang Yu."
"Please allow me to deal with them."
Bai also stepped forward.
His usual gentleness vanished from his face.
Cold Chakra spread out beneath his feet.
A thin layer of frost quickly formed on the grass blades on the ground.
The three Sunagakure' expressions changed simultaneously.
They initially thought Haku was just an ordinary Genin.
But the moment this Chakra appeared, the three of them felt pressure.
Especially the rapidly dropping temperatures around the perimeter.
This is no ordinary Ninjutsu.
" The Kekkei Genkai?"
The leader of the Sunagakure stared intently at Haku.
The other two also gripped their Kunai, no longer feeling the same ease they had before.
The long sword in Uzuki Yugao's hand was already fully drawn.
She simply stood there, and the three of them dared not approach her.
A powerful swordsman.
A boy who has mastered the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai.
There was also a young man holding Kunai between two fingers.
The three Sunagakure finally realized they had chosen the wrong target.
Bai looked at Zhang Yu.
" Boss Zhang Yu."
I'd like to make a move too.
Zhang Yu looked at the three Sunagakure opposite him, whose faces were filled with astonishment, and nodded.
"Okay, you two take care of them."
As soon as Zhang Yu finished speaking, Bai raised his right hand.
He Hand Seals with one hand.
Ice Release: Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death!
The thin frost on the ground spread instantly.
Water droplets on the surrounding grass blades floated up and condensed into icicles in mid-air.
A dense array of ice spikes were aimed at the three Sunagakure, sealing off all their escape routes.
The leader of the Sand Ninja's expression changed drastically.
"Spread!"
The three of them retreated simultaneously.
But the ice spikes had already shot out.
Whoosh whoosh!
The sound of something cutting through the air blended together.
Just as a Sand Ninja leaped onto the tree trunk, a dozen ice spikes came hurtling towards him from the side.
He swung his Kunai, knocking several of them down in succession.
More ice spikes followed, piercing his shoulders, arms, and thighs.
Blood splattered.
The Sand Ninja fell from the tree, and before he could get up, the last ice spike pierced his throat.
On the other side, Uzuki Yugao also moved.
" Konoha-Style Kenjutsu: Dance of the Crescent Moon!"
Her figure was split into three.
Three figures rushed towards the remaining two Sand Ninja simultaneously, their movements identical, making it impossible to tell which one was the real one.
" Clone Technique?"
A Sand Ninja retreated rapidly, throwing three Shuriken at the same time.
The Shuriken pierced through the two figures.
The afterimage then vanished.
"The one on the right is real!"
He had barely uttered the call when Yugao on his right vanished right before his eyes.
A cold blade slashed past from behind.
Pfft!
Fresh blood spurted from the side of the Sand Ninja's neck.
He turned around, clutching his neck, and only saw Yugao sheathing her sword.
"How is that possible...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed to the ground.
The last Sand Ninja panicked completely.
White used Ice Release to seal off the surroundings.
Yugao's swordsmanship was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly.
As for Zhang Yu, who was standing at the back, he didn't make a move from beginning to end.
