Red sand dust

In the dark underground space, a huge monster squatting underground, unable to see the whole thing, occupied a large area. In front of the huge monster, an unconscious Five-tailed Jinchuuriki lay on the ground. Although his chakra reaction was weak, But it is still very stable and far from dying.

In addition to the dead Red Sand Scorpion and Deidara who was captured by Orochimaru, there are a total of seven members on the surface here.

Because "A Fei" has not yet received the "Jade Girl" or "Blue Dragon" ring that represents a formal member of the "Akatsuki" organization, there is once again a vacancy.

Therefore, three of the ten official members of the "full complement" are theoretically absent.

"It seems that the job of finding experts to supplement the members is not going well!"

After looking at the scene around him, Kisame Kisaki, who didn't have much scruples, spoke carelessly, without the slightest embarrassment of exposing his own shortcomings in public.

"First we have to find the rings of 'Jade Girl', 'Qinglong' and 'Kong Chen', right?"

Big-mouthed Hidan asked mercilessly,

"Didn't you say that the new guy named 'A Fei' went after Orochimaru? It seemed like there was no result! By the way, it seems that some people went to Sunagakure Village to stir up trouble, were beaten up, and ran back in despair. , I don’t know if he is dead or not, he never showed up..."

Several subordinates who were watching the excitement and did not take it too seriously spoke the truth without restraint. Not only was Zetsu, who was partnered with Uchiha Obito, speechless, but the leader who called everyone over was also a little embarrassed.

"Today's task is to recover the five tails, and put the others aside first..."

The phantom of Heaven, representing Nagato, suppressed everyone's discussion and directly used the Phantom Dragon Nine Seals, driving the heretic demon, spitting out a ball of chakra dragon, wrapping the five-tailed Jinchūriki in a ball mixed with life force. The tailed beast's chakra is constantly being withdrawn.

After waiting for so many years, the "Akatsuki" organization's "great cause" of capturing the tailed beasts has finally achieved its first result.

…

In the early morning in the "Devil's Desert", there is always sand and dust coming with the gradually brightening morning light.

It was already the last day, and the cool wind laden with water vapor blowing from the northeast rarely reached the "Devil's Desert."

Under the combination of cold and heat, the clouds in the sky became a lot thicker. It rained a little at dawn, but most of it evaporated before it fell to the ground.

Fortunately, this long-lost abnormal weather not only gave the candidates who had been ravaged by the scorching desert for several days a refreshing comfort, but also made the floating sand and dust slightly less severe. The severity of the haze was far less than the previous two days. .

"It's a good day for fighting!"

The sighing Rock Lee was about to rush on his way with Tenten on his back, with Hinata Neji in front of him, looking at the Konoha Village female ninja team who suddenly met.

No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to find anything, and you won't be able to find it without any effort at all?

After searching for most of the day, I didn't find him. When I had no hope, I suddenly met him.

One side is in average condition, Tiantian hasn't woken up yet, and with their hands tied, Hyuga Neji and Rock Lee may not be able to win if they join forces.

Sakura Haruno, a disciple of the Fifth Hokage; Shiho, a talented girl who is known for her caution; and I don’t know how to describe it, the eldest lady of the Kurama family who has weird illusions and idiotic physical strength. Such a tricky combination must be dealt with carefully in the prime of life.

Nowadays, people have something to ask for, and conflicts may break out. Hyuga Neji is not sure whether he can really get what he wants.

"Although the examiner of the second test did not place specific restrictions on each team, a certain member has lost his combat effectiveness and will obviously be eliminated. It seems that you are about to go home! If you can get rid of this unbearable weather as soon as possible, It’s really gratifying to return to the beautiful Konoha Village and enjoy it..."

Haruno Sakura and Shiho, who didn't know what to say, looked at Kurama Yakumo who was pretending to say something strangely:

"Although we are a temporary team without a captain, is it too casual for you to make sarcastic remarks like this?"

"I am such a straightforward little girl. I have been weak and sick since I was a child. I have not had much interaction with others. I am really embarrassed to say something rude..."

"Your expression doesn't look like you're embarrassed at all!"

Although a little slow, Rock Lee's attitude was clearly visible and he bluntly exposed Kurama Yakumo's lies.

"I just like to tell the truth. If you feel uncomfortable, I can't help it. You can't blame me!"

Kurama Yakumo, who kept a safe distance from Hinata Neji and Rock Lee, glanced at the three people opposite him with a smile.

"I originally thought that I could have a good fight with powerful seniors like you by chance, but now it seems that there is no need for that! We will not do anything that adds insult to injury..."

In fact, the condition of Kurama Yakumo, Haruno Sakura and Shiho is not much better. The three girls stayed in the "Demon Desert" for three or four days. Their skin was rough and dull due to the wind and sun. She said, her hair was shiny, her cheeks were dull, and she didn't look like a charming little girl at all.

Although Haruno Sakura, an expert in medical ninjutsu, was protecting them, the chakra and physical strength of the three of them had been consumed a lot. After a night's rest, they could not recover to their best condition, especially the mental fatigue. It can be replenished with some potion.

However, looking at the fact that there is simply one less person on the other side, they are even more at a disadvantage. If there is a real fight, the outcome will still be in favor of the female ninja team.

In particular, Hinata Neji and Rock Lee, who were a little scrupulous, did not take action immediately, giving Kurama Yakumo enough time to prepare.

"Although I'm a little embarrassed, who told you to be unlucky? Luck is also a part of strength..."

As he spoke, Kurama Yakumo's figure began to become illusory, and then disappeared from the same place, along with Haruno Sakura and Shiho.

"We are all Konoha ninjas, so let's keep some dignity! If you stay here and wait for the end of time, or you will be defeated by the 'monsters' outside the shrinking circle of punishment, it would be nicer to say it out loud!"

"What's going on? Don't you plan to fight..."

Rock Lee, whose illusion resistance was almost non-existent, asked solemnly,

"What do they mean?"

After looking at the situation around him, Hinata Neji, whose face was ashen, replied,

"Illusion Space! Damn it! I didn't even see her make any extra moves, and I deployed such a powerful killing move..."

"very dangerous?"

"It's not a question of whether it's dangerous or not!"

Hinata Neji stared anxiously, looking for loopholes in the illusion space.

"With almost no illusion skills, we will definitely not be able to get out for a while. We will either be delayed until the end of the exam and be kicked out, or we will be eliminated by the rules of the 'Circle of Divine Punishment'..."

"Can't even see through your white eyes?"

Hinata Neji replied:

"This is not a power that genin should master at all. The limits of the Kurama family's blood inheritance are far beyond expectations..."
