Chapter 200 The Snake's Attack
"Gah, let go of Crow Gah!!!"
The crow was grabbed by a giant hand made of quicksand, while a red-haired boy below held up his hand, looking at the talking crow.
What are you?
A barely perceptible curiosity flashed in Gaara's eyes, but more so was the madness caused by long-term insomnia and the hostility of the villagers.
"Crows aren't things, bah! Crows are here to tell you information!"
Temari wanted to persuade Gaara to let go of the crow, as it was highly likely to be an official summoning beast of Konoha, and killing it might cause unnecessary trouble.
"Enough with the rambling, just say what you need to say."
Gaara glared fiercely at Crow, his hand clenching slightly.
"Gah! Naruto's team is next to that huge building that just appeared."
Ya Ya felt the quicksand squeezing her body and panicked a little. The aura of the red-haired brat in front of her seemed a bit terrifying.
"hehe."
Gaara covered his face and let out a low laugh.
"Gaara, our priority right now is to pass the exam. Have you forgotten the tasks that Master Maki and Father gave us?"
Temari sensed that Gaara was about to go berserk, so she quickly brought out Maki and Rasa to try and calm him down.
"Shut up!"
Gaara lowered the hand that was covering his face, and slowly lowered the other hand as well. The giant sand hand that had been holding Crow slowly disappeared.
"Gah, what a scary little brat."
The crow flew away quickly; it was too dangerous. Just now, the crow really felt that it was in danger of being killed.
I've decided, I won't come looking for that brat tomorrow.
Or call Itachi, who's on vacation, over to be with you, and see if that brat can still laugh like that!
Crow has completed its mission for the day, but what is Naruto's team doing now that their location has just been exposed?
"So how exactly did that person die?"
Karin looked at Naruto, who was telling them a story, with anticipation and asked curiously.
"In fact, the one who killed her was not Mr. Tano, who had fingerprint evidence, nor Mr. Hayasaka, who was passing by the scene of the crime, but Gofuku, who was a swordsmanship instructor!"
"ah?!!!"
Even Sasuke showed a rare expression of shock.
"Ahem, actually it's like this..."
A case shrouded in mystery unfolds as Naruto vividly describes it.
"I see."
Sasuke stroked his chin, surprised that the Fifth Branch had been hiding so deeply, and even chose to harm the other two gentlemen. They were simply too wicked.
"By the way, our location should have already been reported, right?"
Karin asked.
"Hmm, it's already past eight o'clock, why hasn't anyone come yet?"
Naruto stretched and sprawled on the table in the living room of the cabin, saying...
"Don't rush. If there were people nearby from the beginning, they should have arrived yesterday."
Sasuke took a sip of water and said slowly.
After all, the noise Naruto made when he built that Ferris wheel yesterday was quite loud; if there had been anyone around, they probably would have come over long ago.
However, it's also possible that they're afraid to come over; after all, who wouldn't get confused looking at such a huge Ferris wheel?
"I don't know why there are so many snakes here."
Karin sensed that there were many snakes around her, including several particularly large ones that could swallow a person whole.
"After all, it's the Forest of Death, but I remember there weren't this many snakes back then."
Naruto shrugged, not paying attention to that. Maybe it was because he ate all the snakes' natural enemies back then, which is why there are so many snakes.
"Too."
Karin nodded, but something still felt off.
Meanwhile, on a tree outside the barrier, a female ninja from the Grass Ninja Village looked at the barrier in front of her and licked her lips with her tender red tongue.
"Hehe, the orphans of the Uzumaki clan can also become my new vessel."
This female ninja, or rather, a female ninja in physical terms but a male ninja in mental terms, Orochimaru looked at the barrier in front of him and said in a slightly hoarse voice.
His skin was very white, just like the group of White Zetsu who worked under Obito.
"I wonder what will happen when the Uzumaki clan's body is combined with the Senju clan's Wood Release power?"
After saying that, his body burrowed into the ground, dodging the barrier above Karin's cage, and swam toward Naruto's cabin.
"Let's have another snake soup tonight."
"I think it's a good idea."
"Let's play Werewolf then."
"negative."
"If Naruto wants it, it's not impossible..."
"Um, I think I'll pass."
Unlike yesterday, today Hinata looked at Naruto slumped on the table and her heart softened, so she agreed.
But Sasuke and Karin didn't want to play at all.
You never know what kind of attack nine Narutos would use.
"Waaah, Hinata, you're the best!"
Naruto pretended to wipe his eyes, but suddenly became serious, and his aura instantly rose.
"What's wrong?"
Sasuke lacks sensory abilities, but he understands Naruto.
Just now, Kurama's voice echoed in Naruto's mind.
"Naruto, there's a cold chakra approaching you from underground, and its aura is similar to Hashirama's."
Someone I know would never sneak underground if they wanted to get in, so the visitor is an enemy, not a friend.
"Someone came down from underground."
Naruto took out the Executioner's Blade, but because he couldn't find a blacksmith to reforge it, its appearance remained unchanged.
"learn."
Sasuke nodded, then walked out of the cabin and drew his Moonbeam from his waist.
Hinata activated her Byakugan, and after scanning the area and locking onto the person, she saw who had arrived.
"It's that girl from Kusagakure."
Because the girl's aura was very similar to the examiner's, and she also had a large amount of chakra, Team 7 remembered her.
But why did she come to find us alone?
Hinata couldn't understand it for the time being, but since the other party had ill intentions, they weren't going to take it lying down either.
Karin was very unhappy that someone had found a loophole in her barrier. She was being praised last night, but now she's been proven wrong.
Anger flared in her eyes. Today, I, Karin, will see what kind of audacity this woman has to dare to provoke me, Karin-nee!
"Brother, leave it to me later."
Karin's Vajra chains extended from behind her, dancing wildly in the air as if expressing her fury.
"Oh, well then you go first."
Naruto wanted to warn Karin that the opponent was not weak and might even use Wood Release, but looking at Karin's current state, he knew he couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he decided to let it go.
"Okay!" (`皿´)
