As he spoke, the squad leader of the Anbu took out a pale yellow scroll, shook it, and then put it away again.
"There are many scrolls like this in the Forest of Death, but they are hidden in rather secluded places. We need to rely on various clues to determine their location and find them."
"If you obtain one scroll and return it to the tower, you will receive ten points. If you carry two scrolls, you will receive twenty points, and so on."
"I want to remind everyone that scrolls can be stolen from each other... So, while searching for clues, you must also conceal yourselves... This is the first training session."
"The only rule is that intentional deathmatch is prohibited. Of course, accidents are inevitable in combat, and we will not be held responsible for accidental deaths."
"This training camp will be monitored throughout."
The squad leader of the Anbu calmly explained the key points of the first training session, then raised his voice slightly.
"Therefore, I hereby declare the training camp to begin!"
They heard the instructions from the Anbu leader.
All the Anbu ninja candidates exchanged glances, then emerged from the tower and entered the Forest of Death.
Whoosh!
Almost instantly, this large group of Anbu ninja candidates all turned into a blur of motion, leaping into the air in their respective chosen directions.
"As expected of the Anbu's training camp... This kind of assessment alone is even more demanding than the Chunin Ninja Exams in the original story."
Uya was also among the crowd. After leaping to the top of a tree, he first glanced around and then muttered something to himself.
Almost every official ninja in the Anbu is an elite among elites.
This training alone tested their intelligence gathering, intelligence analysis, combat, escape, and tracking abilities...
Almost all the basic skills of a ninja are covered in the test.
Just as he was about to choose a direction to search for those so-called traces and then find the scroll hidden in the forest, Uya suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
No! That's not right!
"Full monitoring... full monitoring... the real purpose of this training camp is not to test the all-around abilities of the Anbu Ninja."
Its true purpose should be to find everyone's most unique and strongest qualities!
It's impossible for every ninja to be an all-rounder. The goal is to find the scroll safely and bring it back to the tower safely.
The difficulty level is ridiculously high.
Ninjas skilled in searching for information might easily find a large number of scrolls, but they might not be able to keep the scrolls they find.
Those ninjas with strong escape abilities may not be able to steal other people's scrolls, but they can constantly maneuver through this Forest of Death, looking for opportunities.
As for ninjas with strong combat abilities, they don't need to search for scrolls; they can simply steal scrolls from others!
The real purpose of this training camp is to see what each ninja is best at, to give an evaluation from all aspects, so as to determine whether the ninja should become a scout-type ninja or a combat-type ninja in the future.
So that's why there was that last sentence, "Monitored throughout the entire process?"
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Uya's lips.
Now that he understood, he no longer needed to look for any scrolls.
There are definitely no Jonin- level ninjas among the Anbu candidates.
Jonin- level ninja is already a full- Anbu ninja, or even a captain-level figure.
In other words, for Uya, he has no rivals here!
In the Forest of Death, ninjas quickly found the scroll.
Then, others quickly discovered it, and a scramble for the scroll began.
Most of them were fighting their own battles.
The purpose of this training camp was not to test teamwork.
Battles continued to break out.
However, due to the constant monitoring and the prohibition of deliberate deadly combat, that is, intentionally killing someone.
So there were only injuries, no deaths.
Soon, someone carrying a scroll arrived at the central tower.
At this very moment, outside the tower, Uya's figure stood quietly.
He never even entered the Forest of Death.
Yes.
Since the destination is the tower, we can just wait there!
There's absolutely no need to go into the Forest of Death!
Of course, there is a problem with doing this, because no one knows who the first ninja to return will be, or how strong he will be.
It's very likely that they'll suffer an unexpected setback.
Therefore, all the Anbu candidate ninjas except for Uya had considered this possibility, but none of them chose to do so.
"Get out of the way."
The Anbu candidate ninja carrying the scroll saw Uya's figure blocking his way, snorted coldly, and charged forward.
Although her face cannot be seen, judging from her appearance, Uya should be very young.
They probably didn't dare to go into the Forest of Death to compete for the scrolls, so they gave up on this round of training from the very beginning.
He shook his head inwardly, disdainful.
However, this Anbu candidate ninja was not careless. As he rushed over, he still used a B-rank Wind Release Ninjutsu on Uya.
If Uya simply dodges, he can rush straight into the tower.
However, the idea is good.
Reality, however, is often the complete opposite of what we expect.
boom!!
The cracks caused by the shattering air spread outwards.
That B-rank Wind Release Ninjutsu was shattered by Uya's single punch!
"It's you?!"
The ANBU Anbu ninja stopped in his tracks as he watched his B-rank Ninjutsu be shattered by Uya's punch, letting out a cry of surprise.
He was very familiar with this ability; even though he hadn't seen it in person, he had heard of it.
Isn't this the ability of Konoha, the genius student from the Ninja Academy who was famous in Uya not long ago?!
Without a doubt, the young man in front of us must be Uya!
Thinking of this, a look of disbelief immediately appeared in his eyes.
It wasn't because Uya had become a candidate for the Anbu, but because... Uya had shattered his B-rank Ninjutsu with a single punch!
This is ridiculous!
Even if Uya is a genius at the Ninja Academy, he shouldn't have grown to this level in such a short time.
After the outcome of Uya's battle with Uchiha Kan was suppressed by the Konoha High Command and the Uchiha Clan, not many ninjas knew Uya's true strength.
Even among the official Anbu ninjas, very few knew about it.
Not to mention the ninja candidate in front of him.
All he knew was that Uya defeated Minato Namikaze at the Ninja Academy, achieving first place in the practical combat ranking assessment and becoming a renowned genius in Konoha.
So, after recognizing Uya's identity and witnessing Uya shatter his B-rank Ninjutsu with a single punch...
This Anbu candidate ninja found it almost unbelievable.
But the facts were right in front of him.
"Give me the scroll."
Uya looked at the ninja in front of him and spoke calmly.
