Shikamaru's face was very calm.
His mind had already begun to analyze the situation based on the information from Uehara's mouth, analyzing the information that could be used from those few words.
Sakura mentioned before the exam, Uehara was an opponent that Kakashi told them not to provoke before the game.
Moreover, their enemy Uehara must have been in contact with other ninjas before. Judging from his state, he must have won easily.
This guy was alone, and the way he appeared was bizarre, proving that he could crush this small team alone...
He was a perilous enemy.
Shikamaru grinned and smiled confidently at Uehara, "What scroll do you need? Maybe we don't need to fight?"
"Giving up just like that?"
Uehara sighed with regret.
Just when Shikamaru thought they could negotiate, Uehara's fist suddenly hit his lower abdomen!
Uehara looked at Shikamaru, holding his lower abdomen, shook his head, and said, "Unfortunately, what I need is not a scroll but a battle."
"Nikudan Sensha!" (Human Bullet Tank)
The timidness on Choji's face suddenly changed when he saw Shikamaru fall, a flash of fighting spirit appeared in his eyes, and his whole body instantly turned into a ball and charged towards Uehara!
Bang!
Choji was kicked away!
Uehara slowly lowered his head and looked at the trembling Ino and saw a pleasing smile on the face of this little blonde girl, "Our strength is very weak. There is no point in fighting us, right?"
"But it would give me some pleasure."
Uehara squatted in front of Ino and said softly, "You are a girl, so I must be more modest. You have the right to choose..."
"I choose to surrender!"
Ino raised her hands.
This Ino-Shika-Cho team was too immature, they still didn't realize the way of their fighting, and their strength was too weak.
"Nope."
Uehara clenched his fist and placed it in front of Ino, "I mean, you could choose to be knocked out by my fist or my foot."
"..."
Ino turned her head and glanced at Shikamaru, who had fallen beside him, and Choji not far away. She bowed her head and desperately said, "Can you be a bit gentle?"
"Of course!"
Uehara showed a kind smile.
A second later, Ino's eyes went dark, and she lost consciousness.
A while later, with the Ino-Shika-Cho team lying there waiting to die, an old man finally found this place, and he set up his iron pot and started cooking.
"What kind of enemy did you meet?"
The old man slowly stirred the iron pot content with a spoon and said softly, "Was it a ninja named Uehara Naraku?"
"Yes."
Shikamaru took a meaningful look at the old man and replied directly, "He didn't kill us, nor did he take our scrolls. He just knocked us down."
The old man nodded and said slowly, "It's like after he grabbed the scrolls, all that interests him is wrecking you guys."
The old man had been tracking the trail of Uehara before, but he couldn't find it. He had just met the defeated Team 8 and Gaara's team, and now he met the Ino-Shika-Cho team, and finally, he was able to confirm Uehara's purpose.
To put it simply, he was using his strength to beat newcomers in exchange for pleasure.
His nature was quite terrible!
The old man sighed and called them, "After eating this pot of food together, you can continue to take the exam!"
"Yes, senpai."
Shikamaru nodded seriously.
The other side.
Uehara acquired three skills.
It seems like many people like the Ino-Shika-Cho trio!
[Side Mission: Defeat Akamichi Choji (1/1)]
[Reward: skill Power Sprint]
[Power Sprint: Change your body into a ball shape, greatly increasing your movement speed for6 seconds. The duration is proportional to the amount of Chakra consumed with a minimum of 60 Chakra. Cooldown, 8 seconds.]
The moment he got this skill, Uehara decided to blacklist it. After all, using this skill would be terrible for his image!
[Side Mission: Defeat Yamanaka Ino (1/1)]
[Reward: skill Hypnotic Bubble.]
[Hypnotic Bubble: Shoot out a hypnotic bubble. Upon hitting an enemy, force them to fall into a state of deep sleep for 3 seconds. If the hypnotic bubble fails to hit anyone, a hypnotic zone will be formed where it lands. Consumes 80 Chakra. Cooldown, 10 seconds.]
Uehara was numb. The utility of this skill in battle was far too low. After all, the probability of it hitting was too low.
Then only the reward for defeating Shikamaru was left!
[Side Mission: Defeat Nara Shikamaru (1/1)]
[Reward: skill Shadow Clone.]
[Shadow Clone: Release a shadow clone of yourself. Every time the main body releases a skill, the shadow clone also releases the same skill. The main body can also swap positions with the shadow clone at any time. Consumes 40 Chakra. Cooldown, 10 seconds.]
Uehara frowned, "Hmm... forget it."
If not for its ability to exchange positions with each other, this so-called shadow clone was not as good as the ordinary clone technique of Ninja World! [E/N: Don't ask. I don't get how it's worse either.]
"The next step was to find Hyuga Neji… huh?"
When Uehara turned on his Destiny skill, his face suddenly changed. He noticed that the meal that he left for last was about to be robbed!
Uehara bitterly hit the tree with his fist, and his whole body quietly disappeared, "I almost forgot about that bastard Orochimaru, I can't let him get it first... I must harvest the leeks first! "
If Sasuke blackening first after coming in contact with Orochimaru would greatly reduce the probability of Naruto blackening. According to Uehara's understanding, the reward for Naruto blackening and becoming a traitor was definitely very high!
The fetters of the Ninja World were outrageous!
In the outer circle of the Forest of Death.
Team 7 only encountered a reconnaissance enemy along the way. Sasuke dealt with them easily, so he was in a good mood, and his self-confidence was peaking.
Sasuke was looking everywhere for Uehara. After all, Sasuke was willing to do whatever it took to get Itachi's information.
Besides, Uehara took the initiative to send it to him!
Sasuke confidently said to his two teammates, "According to my observations, we can search for the traces of Uehara to the north and try to intercept a copy of the earth scroll..."
"But Sasuke-kun..."
Sakura's face was a little worried, "Kakashi-sensei specifically asked us not to provoke that man for no reason!"
Naruto waved his hand and said with a smile on his face, "Sakura-chan, but it makes more sense to challenge the strong ones!"
"Naruto was right."
Sasuke rarely agrees with Naruto's opinions. He folded his arm and said in a deep voice, "And if I want to kill that man, Uchiha Itachi, I must get his information first."
This was the blood feud that he carries!
Since the night of the genocide four years ago, Sasuke practically spent every waking moment thinking about how to kill Uchiha Itachi! He even dreamt about it!
The worry on Sakura's face did not disappear, but the two teammates agreed, so she could only agree, "Then I hope we find that person as soon as possible... Sasuke-kun will be able to defeat him and get what he wants!"
"Thank you."
Sasuke nodded and thanked his teammates for the first time causing Sakura to blush.
At this moment, a gloomy voice echoed around them, "Do you want to defeat Uehara Naraku with your current strength?"
A tall and slender man emerged from the ground and appeared in front of Team 7.
The man pressed down his hat, stretched out his long tongue, and looked at the three little guys in Team 7. He then said, "What a group of innocent and cute little kids, they always like to talk innocently and daydream…."
Uehara was a man who even he didn't dare to take lightly!
These little guys who don't know the height of the sky dared to challenge Uehara Naraku, this kind of behavior was no different from asking for death.
Rather than let them die at the hands of Uehara, he could test the strength of the Uchiha orphan first and see if he was qualified to be a container.
The long, narrow eyes under the man's hat stared straight at Team 7 sight, making people feel a chill. The murderous aura from this man even made Naruto and the others collapse to the ground in fright!
The thin and tall man frowned and looked at Team 7's performance. His eyes revealed a little displeasure, "You're only at this level?"
"Bastard, don't underestimate an Uchiha!"
Sasuke violently grabbed a Kunai and stabbed it into his leg. He withstood his fear and rushed at the thin man!
Just as Team 7 and the thin, tall man had started fighting, another figure quietly landed near them.
The second visitor was Uehara Naraku.
Uehara watched the thin man, who was Orochimaru, bully Team 7. With impatience on his face, he said, "Orochimaru, if you dare to ruin my harvest, I will kill you!"
The current Team 7 wanting to defeat Orochimaru was a dream within a dream.
It didn't take long at all. Orochimaru easily defeated both Sasuke and Naruto. Even Sasuke's desperate counterattack was useless.
"Not bad. You dare to resist even when meeting someone truly powerful."
After Orochimaru finished speaking, his neck suddenly stretched, sending his head in Sasuke's direction, trying to bite the back of Sasuke's neck!
Orochimaru's voice was a little crazy, "But to prevent you from going to Uehara to die, please accept my gift obediently! If you want to use this power in your body, go find me! Remember, my name is Orochimaru!"
Click!
Orochimaru's teeth suddenly bit onto a person's arm!
Suddenly a young man appeared next to Sasuke, who stretched out his arm to help him block Orochimaru's teeth.
Orochimaru looked at the man's face, with a hint of surprise and fear in his eyes, "Uehara Naraku? How could this guy appear here? Shouldn't he already be in the tower with his strength and speed?"
