Hinata lowered her head. Although she didn't want to admit defeat, the situation was already crystal clear.

She couldn't avoid admitting defeat even if she wanted to.

"I forfeit!" she sighed, unwillingly.

On the sidelines, the ninjas from other villages grew restless.

This Chunin Exam was truly bizarre.

Not only were the props strange, but the ninjutsu were also bizarre.

If this continued, how many people from outside Konohagakure would even advance to Chunin?

This was utterly unfair!

Gekko Hayate stepped forward.

"In this match, Hyuga Neji wins. The next match is Konohagakure's Aburame Shino versus Zaku!"

Zaku walked to the center of the arena with a sinister smile, twisting his neck. He glanced at Naruto, hatred burning in his eyes.

He could never forget the humiliation and perverse pleasure from the Forest of Death.

He pointed at Naruto and shouted, "You wait! We'll definitely meet again!"

Naruto made a funny face. "I'll wait! And I'll fill your butt with mountains of flowers!"

Shino stood opposite Zaku, watching him and Naruto argue. He said in a low voice, "You seem to have the wrong opponent!"

Zaku turned his head and sneered, "You're just an ant. I can deal with you effortlessly!"

As he spoke, he raised his hands and roared, "Air Cannon!"

Instantly, two invisible cannonballs condensed from chakra flew out.

Shino dodged left and right, his face expressionless. "You're starting with your big moves, huh? Let me show you my summoning jutsu!"

"Slug, I choose you!"

As his words fell, a small, dark hole suddenly flickered in the void.

A line of binary code dropped down, and a small, green, snot-like creature fell out of the hole.

"Yiyiyiyi!" it chirped softly, holding a large piece of pink poop in its hand.

Less than a second after landing, it split in the middle into two.

Zaku was stunned.

Another second later, two became four.

Everyone present was astonished.

The only known divisible summon in the ninja world besides Tsunade's Slug was... well, there didn't seem to be any others.

Moreover, the Slug's division only resulted in smaller and smaller pieces, not splitting into creatures the same size as the original body, like this snot-like thing!

In the blink of an eye, ten seconds passed, and the snot-like creature seemed to have stopped dividing.

Looking at the ground, it was now covered with the creatures.

A rough estimate put the number at over five hundred!

Zaku scratched his face. He had trypophobia, and seeing so many of these creatures now gave him goosebumps.

"Yiyiyiyi!"

Over five hundred snot-like creatures, holding poop, looked at Zaku with malice.

Suddenly, one of them threw a piece of poop at him.

Immediately after, a sky-covering wave of pink poop rolled towards Zaku.

"You'll die!" Zaku went berserk, raising his hands and releasing two Air Cannons.

Wherever the Air Cannons passed, the snot-like creatures instantly turned to dust.

However, just one second later, they would divide again.

Zaku's eyes widened, and he felt a desire to give up.

"Pfft!"

A muffled sound came from his face.

He instantly felt his vision blocked.

He raised his hand to wipe his face, feeling it hot, sticky, and somewhat smelly.

"Ah!"

He roared in despair, "I'll kill you all!"

He raised his hands, chakra surging through his body.

Unfortunately, before he could unleash an Air Cannon, continuous pink poop buried him.

His raised hands were also wrapped in layers of poop, making it impossible to fire the Air Cannon.

In less than half a minute, a giant, two-meter-tall blob appeared in the center of the arena.

Seeing that Zaku had stopped moving, the slugs turned their attention to the others on the sidelines.

The surrounding crowd instantly felt their skin crawl.

"Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—"

A continuous series of whistling sounds swept through the air, and the entire competition arena was plunged into a bombardment of excrement.

At first, the ninjas on the periphery still put up some resistance, but after witnessing the slugs' incredibly strong regenerative ability, they all fell into despair.

Shino repeatedly pleaded, "Stop throwing poop!"

But the slugs acted as if they hadn't heard him, completely ignoring the advice.

Gekko Hayate was getting impatient and directly announced, "In this match, Aburame Shino is the winner. Hurry up and take your slugs and get out of here..."

"Pfft!"

Before he could finish speaking, a hot, sticky, and seemingly foul-smelling lump smeared his face.

Seeing this, Aburame Shino quickly ran out.

He had forgotten to ask the boss how to make these slugs disappear earlier.

Now that the situation in the arena was clearly out of control, he could only seize the chaos to escape and seek a solution.

However, after he left, the slugs seemed to lose their focus. Searching left and right, they all began to chase after him.

Gekko Hayate, after clearing the mess from his face, gagged.

"The match is suspended for half an hour. Everyone will help clean up the venue. Those who don't participate will be immediately disqualified!"

Speaking of which, this year's tournament is truly bizarre.

Normally, there are no mid-match suspensions, but this year, after only a few bouts, it's already been suspended twice!

On the streets of Konohagakure, Shino was sprinting at full speed, with the slugs hot on his heels.

At first, passersby were astonished and gathered to watch.

However, after feeling the hot, sticky, and seemingly foul-smelling pink excrement, they all disgustedly dodged out of the way.

But these slugs were getting bolder.

Seeing people dodge them, they instead rushed out to attack people.

From the arena to the scratch-off ticket shop, the streets on both sides were soon reeking of foul odors.

On windows, on signs, on lampposts, on trash cans.

Almost every place imaginable was covered in a blob of pink mysterious substance.

"Aburame Shino!"

"Wipe the glass for me!"

"You stop right there!"

Complaints and curses echoed from both sides of the street.

Shino, sweating profusely, ran towards the small shop, shouting as he ran, "Boss, help me!"

Wu Di was currently lying on a pile of scratch-off tickets, lost in his daydreams.

Upon hearing Shino's call, he immediately jumped to the ground.

In an instant, Shino rushed into the shop, followed closely by a long line of green slugs.

Inside the shop, before Wu Di could even ask, he saw the slugs throw out the excrement they had already prepared.

"Hey, you need to take them away!"

Shino said aggrievedly, "You didn't tell me how to send them back either!"

Wu Di slapped his forehead, annoyed. "How could I forget something so important?"

Then, he solemnly said, "To make them go back, just shout 'You've worked hard, go back!'"

Without a second thought, Shino quickly followed Wu Di's instructions and shouted at the slugs.

As expected, the moment the sound fell, the slugs disappeared.

However, the traces they left behind remained clearly visible.
