The appearance of Zhang Yu's team has been firmly remembered by the candidates from various villages.
Some people tried to hide in burrows.
Someone hid in a tree hollow.
Some teams deliberately moved along the river, hoping to use the flowing water to cover up their tracks.
However, these methods had no effect on Zhang Yu.
His Chakra perception covered the entire Forest of Death.
Which team is moving?
Which team stopped?
Which side will be the site of the battle?
Nothing escaped his perception.
However, Zhang Yu did not target everyone.
He deliberately avoided Team 7, which included Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura.
Team 10, which includes Ino, Shikamaru, and Choji, also did not enter his target area.
The same applies to Team 3 and Team 8.
Zhang Yu has not yet provoked Gaara's Sunagakure squad.
Orochimaru wanted to continue pushing for the next famous scene, but he let it pass.
He only recruits the less important test takers.
Two days passed, and Yugao's scrolls were no longer enough to hold everything.
Several were also stuffed inside the white clothes.
Zhang Yu kept all the remaining scrolls.
The Heaven and Earth Scrolls together number nearly twenty.
" Lord Zhang Yu."
Yugao couldn't help but ask, "Are we really going to take all these scrolls to the Central Tower to sell?"
"Certainly."
"But other teams might not be able to afford it."
"You can owe me money first."
Zhang Yu answered naturally.
"If all else fails, we can use ninja tools or other items to settle the debt."
Yugao had nothing to say.
In Chunin Ninja Exams have been held, this is the first time she has ever seen someone hoarding the Heaven and Earth Scrolls like a commodity.
If things continue as they are, most of the scrolls in the candidates' hands will probably end up in Zhang Yu's possession.
Meanwhile, Madara and Hashirama were not idle either.
Following the map, the two gathered the materials needed for the tavern in the Forest of Death.
The Hashirama are responsible for identifying herbs and flowers.
Ban is responsible for finding special fruits.
After finding it, the two put the materials into the tavern's warehouse.
Every so often, Tobirama would activate the Flying Thunder God and personally enter the Forest of Death.
He brought the materials back to the tavern, sorted them, and handed them over to Izuna for processing.
After delivering the item, return using the technique on Hashirama's body.
Tobirama appeared again at noon the next day.
Hashirama pushed the two baskets of fruit in front of him.
"Is this enough?"
Tobirama bowed his head to inspect.
"We're still missing three kinds of herbs."
The marked locations on the atlas are too scattered.
"Continue the search this afternoon."
Hashirama's expression fell.
"We also need to protect the boss."
"The boss doesn't need your bodyguards."
Tobirama looked at Madara.
"Send another batch back before tonight."
Ban responded coldly.
"Knew."
Tobirama disappeared with the supplies.
Hashirama picked up the atlas and sighed.
"Are we here to guard, or to collect materials?"
Ban leaped forward.
Stop talking nonsense.
The boss has already gone far away.
The two continued to follow up.
Zhang Yu strolled around with Bai and Yugao.
As evening approached, the three of them arrived near a stream.
The stream is not deep.
Kunai and Shuriken left behind from the battle were scattered around.
Just as Zhang Yu was about to cross the stream, a timid female voice came from ahead.
"I really don't have the scroll."
Please, let me go.
Zhang Yu stopped in his tracks.
Bai looked in the direction from which the sound came.
There's someone ahead.
Yugao had already placed her hand on the hilt of the sword.
The three followed the stream forward and soon spotted three Kirigakure Ninja.
They surrounded a red-haired girl.
The girl sat on the ground, her clothes covered in mud, and her glasses were shattered.
She couldn't see her surroundings clearly, so she could only keep moving backward.
The leader of the Mist Ninja grabbed her hair.
"No scroll?"
"Where did your teammates go?"
They abandoned me.
The girl's voice trembled.
"I know nothing."
Another Mist Ninja took out Kunai.
"She's from Kusagakure."
"Arrest them first."
"Maybe we can use her to lure those two out."
The girl shook her head frantically.
"Don't want."
Please...
Zhang Yu recognized her.
Karin.
"Let's do it."
Bai did not hesitate.
The ice spread instantly along the stream.
The three Mist Ninja had just turned around when their feet were frozen solid.
"Who?"
The leader of the Mist Ninja raised his Kunai.
Yugao had already drawn her sword and rushed in front of him.
A flash of light.
The number one Mist Ninja had a gash on his chest.
Bai raised his hand.
A dozen icicles rose from the stream, piercing the bodies of two other people at the same time.
Three Mist Ninja fell one after another.
Karin heard the sound of the corpse hitting the ground and was so frightened that she backed away.
"Don't kill me!"
"I really don't have the scroll!"
Yugao sheathed her long sword and walked up to her.
Don't be afraid.
They are dead.
Karin couldn't see who was approaching at all.
Her glasses were crushed in the struggle, and she could only see a few blurry outlines.
She hugged her legs, still too afraid to look up.
Yugao squatted down.
We won't hurt you.
Zhang Yu walked over.
Don't make it sound so nice.
Yugao turned to look at him.
Zhang Yu looked at Karin.
We're not exactly good people.
"We've lost quite a few test-takers in the last two days."
Karin's body trembled, and she took half a step back.
Yugao said helplessly, " Lord Zhang Yu, you'll frighten her like this."
"Let's make things clear first, so she doesn't misunderstand."
Zhang Yu approached Karin.
He quickly noticed the debris on the ground.
"Are your glasses broken?"
Karin didn't dare to speak, but simply nodded gently.
Zhang Yu opened the System Shop and redeemed a new pair of glasses.
The glasses appeared out of thin air in his hand.
He crouched down and handed the glasses to Karin.
"Put it on."
Karin fumbled for the glasses and took them.
She hesitated for a moment, but still put it on.
The blurry world quickly became clear.
She first saw three corpses on the ground.
Then I saw Yugao, Bai, and Zhang Yu squatting in front of me.
Karin stopped moving.
Zhang Yu is strikingly handsome.
The black martial arts uniform fit his body perfectly.
After killing three Mist Ninja, he didn't ask her for anything; instead, he gave her a new pair of glasses.
Karin stared at him for a few seconds, her heart beating faster and faster.
My cheeks started to feel hot.
"Can you see clearly now?"
Zhang Yu asked.
Karin nodded immediately.
"Able."
"Thank you."
No need to thank me.
Zhang Yu stood up.
"You've been abandoned by your teammates; you won't survive much longer if you stay in the Forest of Death."
"From now on, follow me."
Karin stared at him blankly.
"Follow you?"
I opened a tavern.
Zhang Yu said, "We're short a maid."
"Meals and accommodation included."
"Salary is paid monthly."
Are you willing or not?
Karin didn't hesitate at all.
"Willing!"
She answered so quickly that even Yugao looked over.
Karin quickly lowered her head.
The surprise on her face vanished.
She gripped the hem of her dress, wanting to speak several times.
Zhang Yu noticed her concerns.
"Are you worried about the people of Kusagakure?"
Karin's body stiffened.
She slowly raised her head.
Zhang Yu pointed into the distance.
"Look over there."
