Ch 406: I Just Want To See Your Body
After thinking for a while, Yuta stopped pondering. After all, what Sasori did had nothing to do with him.
Moreover, with Konoha’s current strength, to put it bluntly, Sunagakure and Amegakure combined wouldn’t be enough. Only Akatsuki coming to fight as a group could pose a challenge.
Slap —
Kimimaro passed by, casually using his bones to kill a Poisonous Snake that was about to ambush Yuta.
The reason the Death Forest is called the Death Forest is because it’s filled with factors that can lead to death.
Not only are there Genin conducting examinations and fighting, but there are also various powerful beasts or poisonous creatures.
For example, there was a bear’s roar earlier.
Yuta didn’t stop, heading towards the direction of the bear’s roar.
After getting closer, parting the grass, he saw a brown bear, over two meters tall on all fours, on the open ground beside a rock.
It’s hard to imagine that in a climate like the Land of Fire, a tropical or subtropical dwarf forest, a proper brown bear would appear in the Death Forest. Yuta strongly suspected that this brown bear, with its obviously oversized physique, was captured from somewhere else by Konoha and thrown here.
“Ah!!! Don’t chase me!”
A little girl with red hair hugged her head and ran wildly, the brown bear closely behind, roaring, seemingly because the little girl had invaded its territory.
The red-haired girl is Karin. Karin at this moment is very cute, but she’s already wearing glasses.
Thud —
Tripped by a dead branch on a tree, Karin directly pounced forward, throwing herself to the ground, her glasses also flying away.
“Oh dear! It’s over!”
The brown bear was about to catch up to her, and with this fall, Karin despaired.
“Lion Continuous Bullet!”
Boom —
Sasuke suddenly appeared, slamming his foot on the brown bear’s head. The unannounced attack directly knocked the brown bear unconscious, and it fell with a thud in front of Karin.
Lion Continuous Bullet, is a Sharingan copied version of Rock Lee’s Leaf Hurricane technique, but the intensity is certainly not as high as the Eight Gates Formation.
Karin looked in shock at the foaming brown bear on the ground, then looked up at Sasuke.
“So…so strong, but…”
Karin’s nearsightedness was severe; she couldn’t see Sasuke’s appearance clearly.
Hurriedly picking up her glasses, she finally saw Sasuke’s appearance.
“So handsome…”
Karin didn’t notice that Sasuke’s gaze was fixed on the scroll she was holding in her arms.
Slightly tilting his head, Sasuke saw the character “Earth” written on the scroll.
“It’s the same scroll. Then… goodbye.”
Team Seven also had the Earth Scroll. Seeing that Karin’s scroll was the same, Sasuke didn’t say a word and left directly. Any heroic rescue was just about not wanting to waste time.
Karin just stared blankly as Sasuke left, feeling relieved, then somewhat dejected.
Her teammates were scattered. If she was alone, let alone seizing others’ Heaven Scroll, it was unknown whether she could even survive leaving the Death Forest.
“What should I do…”
“Yeah, what should I do?”
“Huh?”
Karin froze.
That voice just now didn’t seem to be her own echo, did it?
With wide eyes, Karin slowly turned her head, and then saw Yuta, Kimimaro, and Sai emerging from the bushes.
Seeing Yuta’s mischievous smile, Karin secretly felt uneasy.
Although they also wore Konoha’s forehead protector, Konoha’s ninjas weren’t all as good as the handsome guy just now!
“You’re alone, but we have three. I’ll give you a chance, a one-on-one fight, how about it?”
“Boss, bullying someone like this isn’t very good.”
Sai mumbled.
“Who’s bullying her? Aren’t we giving her a chance?”
Sai rolled his eyes. You don’t even participate in the one-on-one fight, and Kimimaro and I fighting a little girl is bullying. Seeing that she couldn’t even handle a bear, how could she have any fighting ability?
“Think it over, one against three~”
Sai: Okay, I still thought you were somewhat kind.
Swish —
Kimimaro didn’t say a word, directly revealing his Bone Spikes. No gentleness or compassion; this is a battle!
The Bone Spikes scared Karin to the point of almost crying.
“I-I-I… I’ll give you the scroll, please don’t kill me…”
The Chunin Exams were already filled with death. In the later battles, because of the Daimyō’s presence and Konoha Jonin specifically maintaining order in the exam grounds, casualties were reduced, but this is the Death Forest!
“Throw it over~”
Yuta showed no consideration for the little girl, beckoning Karin with his finger.
Karin had no choice but to throw the Earth Scroll in her hand towards Yuta.
Her teammates were scattered, and they were probably in grave danger. Looking at the guy sharpening his bone weapons, she didn’t think that even if her teammates arrived, they could defeat the opponent. Therefore, they definitely couldn’t succeed in this Chunin Exam, so it was better to save her own life.
Karin wasn’t a mindless woman. On the contrary, she was very smart since she was young, but she couldn’t control or resist many things.
Yuta caught the scroll, glanced at it, and nodded. The Earth Scroll, wasn’t that it?
Casually tossing the scroll to Sai behind him, Yuta walked towards Karin.
Under Karin’s terrified gaze, Yuta walked in front of her and examined her up and down.
Karin was wearing a short-sleeved jacket, a net-like lining, and shorts.
Yuta crouched down and tore off Karin’s jacket.
Rip —
The clothes were torn, and Karin screamed, covering her remaining lining.
“AAAA!!!”
Sai helplessly covered his eyes, while Kimimaro stood rigidly, holding his bone knife, on guard.
Yuta looked left and right, nodded, and stood up.
He couldn’t possibly have any interest in doing anything to an underage girl. After all, hidden beneath Yuta’s childlike body was Kozō, of an unknown age, who had lost most of his humanity.
He just wanted to see if Karin at this time had already been used as a chakra battery by Kusagakure, the kind where one bite could relieve hunger and restore her to herself.
After a quick glance, Yuta found no bite marks or similar traces on Karin’s body.
In other words, Karin’s special constitution hadn’t been discovered yet, or Kusagakure had already killed her mother, but she was too young to be put on the table.
Yuta remembered that Karin’s parents had already died at this time.
“Stop crying, stop crying~”
Yuta impatiently said to Karin.
“A washboard, what’s there to cover? Do you want to come with us to the High Tower, or do you want to cry here for a while?”
“Huh?”
Karin sniffled and found that this beggar-dressed ninja hadn’t done anything bad to her. She secretly looked up at Yuta.
“I… I’ll go with you, don’t leave me here…”
There was also a foaming bear nearby, whether it was dead or not, Karin didn’t dare stay here alone.
“Let’s go, let’s go. Hey, Kimimaro, anyway, your clothes always tear, take it off and give it to her, so it doesn’t look like someone is bullying her.”
Kimimaro, who was always obedient during missions, directly took off his combat uniform and threw it to Karin.
Although wearing a net-like lining, the ninja’s lining only partially revealed skin, but wouldn’t expose anything.
However, Karin still put on Kimimaro’s jacket.
“Oh, don’t look like that, the quality of your Kusagakure Village clothes is bad, they break with a single pull. I just wanted to see your body…tsk, saying that, I’m really not a good person…”
…….
