Chapter 118: The First Crop of Leeks has Been Harvested. Even a Dog Won’t be let Go!
“Wait…”
Sasuke called out to Uehara hurriedly.
The confidence and pride on Sasuke’s face gradually faded, and his face became dark, “Do you know Uchiha Itachi?”
“I do.”
Uehara narrowed his eyes and smiled. He said, “I barely escaped from his hands! So I have a lot of information about him in my head. If you want to get his information, you will have to defeat me in the Forest of Death!”
There is nothing wrong with his words.
After all, when Uehara first joined the Akatsuki organization, he really fell to the eyes of Itachi, but at that time, Uehara was a little weak, and his strength was only one-tenth or even less of now.
“Good!”
Sasuke squeezed his fist, and there was a sense of fighting spirit in his chest. He sneered at Uehara and said, “Since you’re cooperating so well after I defeat you, I can spare your life.”
“Then I expect us to meet again.”
Uehara waved his hand in a friendly manner and left with Kimimaro and Haku.
Immediately after separating from Team 7, Haku couldn’t help but ask, “Uehara, Itachi-senpai, and his younger brother have very different characters…”
“Yes.”
Kimimaro nodded in agreement.
After Kimimaro nodded, he continued to add, “Itachi-senpai is very humble, being polite to almost everyone he meets, so why does his younger brother always look so arrogant…”
“That’s natural!”
Uehara waved his hand and said indifferently, “Geniuses are always a little arrogant and smug. After hitting them, they will become much more honest.”
In the afternoon.
It was Half-past two.
The entrance to the forest of death opened.
Uehara raised his head to look at the forest under the sun and walked forwards slowly, step by step, “Kimimaro, Haku, you guys should go to the tower and lie in wait. Before I reach the tower, no one is allowed to enter the tower. I will let you experience the pleasure of bullying children.”
“Understood.”
Kimimaro and Haku nodded seriously.
No matter what the mission is, Haku would carry it out seriously.
As for Kimimaro, he would do whatever Uehara asked him to do.
After the two left, Uehara rubbed his palms excitedly, “There are so many treasures here. Which ones should I dig up first? Then let’s leave it to Destiny to choose. Let me see which team of cuties is closest?”
Destiny, activate!
Inside the Forest of Death.
Team 8 Hinata, Kiba, and Shino
Relying on their superior sensory abilities and Shino’s insect manipulation skills, they set up traps in case of a dangerous situation. Thus, they easily dealt with a group of enemies and gathered both the Heaven and Earth scrolls.
Kiba looked at the enemy team they had defeated and said triumphantly, “We have a huge advantage in this survival exercise!”
“…”
Hinata was not comfortable with saying arrogant words.
Although her status was high, she just bowed her head due to being reprimanded by her father since she was a child.
Shino stretched out his palm, and a small black bug on it trembled, causing his brows to wrinkle.
“Kiba, Hinata, let’s go to the tower!”
Shino suddenly raised his head and looked at his two teammates, “My bug told me that staying here will be very dangerous. The bugs in the forest are very scared!”
“Ah, didn’t we find another group?”
Kiba raised his head in surprise and reached out and hugged his puppy in his arms, “Hey, what’s wrong, Akamaru?”
“Bark!”
Akamaru barked nervously and drew back into Kiba’s arms.
Hinata’s face becomes nervous, and she whispers, “I also feel a sense of crisis. I will observe with my Byakugan…!”
The moment Hinata opened her Byakugan, her face changed suddenly because a young ninja sat on the big tree behind them.
Hinata suddenly turned her head and looked at the big tree behind them!
“As expected of Konoha’s Byakugan…”
A young ninja flew down. He held a wild fruit in his hand, took a bite, and said h.e.l.lo to the three children in Team 8, “Good afternoon, my name is Uehara Naraku. Please advise me for three seconds.”
“Three seconds?”
Kiba’s eyes were a little puzzled.
The next moment, his eyes suddenly widened!
A considerable force hit his body, knocked him away, and slammed into a tree!
Hinata’s Byakugan had already noticed Uehara’s movements, and she waved her palms and shouted loudly, “Juken…”
Bam!
The Byakugan girl was also kicked away!
Shino tried to avoid Uehara’s attack, but Uehara stretched out his hand to pinch his throat and threw him to the ground.
“Three seconds, just right.”
Uehara threw away the half-eaten wild fruit and walked slowly to Kiba’s side, reaching out to take the scroll of heaven and earth from him.
Akamaru bravely jumped off Kiba’s body, opened his mouth, and barked at Uehara, “Bark, bark…”
“Oh, I almost forgot about you.”
Uehara reached out and grabbed the little puppy Akamaru when he was about to knock it out.
“Wait!
Kiba, while holding his chest, said solemnly, “Don’t hurt Akamaru. We’ve already been defeated, and I can give you whatever scroll you want!”
“No way.”
Uehara knocked Akamaru with a punch and threw it on Kiba’s body. He pulled out two scrolls of heaven and earth from his bag, “Not only will I hit your puppy, but I will also take your scrolls!”
After speaking, Uehara grabbed the scroll and disappeared.
The three little guys in Team 8 looked at each other blankly, their eyes full of blankness and confusion.
After inspecting Akamaru’s injury, Kiba swore fiercely, “That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He even bullies a girl like Hinata. He didn’t even let Akamaru go!”
“…”
Hinata nodded subconsciously.
Shino was very sensible. He whispered, “This is to make us lose our combat effectiveness. At least he did not kill us. That means that over the next five days, we still have the opportunity to collect the scrolls again.”
“We have to start from scratch.”
Kiba sighed, struggled to stand up, and said solemnly, “The next time we meet him, we must be cautious.”
“…Ok.”
Hinata rubbed her belly and nodded cautiously.
Uehara’s side.
Uehara was in a good mood. The reward for defeating Team 8 was much higher than the reward for defeating the Kazekage.
If it weren’t for Konan and Nagato treating him well, Uehara would have really regretted not choosing to start in Konoha.?????e??o?el. ?om
[Side Mission: Collect a Heaven or Earth Scroll during the Chunin Exam (1/1)]
[Reward: 300 gold coins]
[Side Mission: Defeat Inuzuka Kiba (1/1)]
[Reward: skill Hunting Rhythm.]
[Hunting Rhythm: Enter a stealth state and gain the precise location of all enemies within 2 kilometers for 20 seconds. The duration is proportional to the amount of Chakra used, with a minimum of 20 Chakra. Cooldown, 55 seconds.]
This skill is simply a must-have for survival in the wild.
Although the detection range of destiny was very high, chakra consumption was also very high. Even if it only takes a few minutes to locate an enemy and observe the enemy’s movements, it would still consume thousands of Chakra, which was far more than the Hunting Rhythm skill.
After all, the Hunting Rhythm skill barely consumed any Chakra, and Uehara could even continuously activate it.
Not to mention that this skill had its own stealth effect.
[Side Mission: Defeat Akamaru (1/1)]
[Reward: Magical cat Yuumi summon contract.]
[Summon Contract: The magical cat Yuumi. Consumes 1000 Chakra points. While active consumes 1 Chakra every second.]
[Side Mission: Defeat Aburame Shino (1/1)]
[Reward: skill Void Swarm.]
[Void Swarm: You can summon a group of Void Insects. When the Void Swarm kills a unit, it will consume the corpse to summon an additional Void Swarm. Void Swarms move further than 10 kilometers from the summoner. Consumes 40 Chakra. Cooldown, 4 seconds.]
Uehara fell into deep thought.
If he was stimulated and fell into madness in the future, becoming a world-destroying villain, he could summon the Void Swarm and kill every living being in the Ninja World, but he didn’t know if these Void Insects could resist a beating…
If they could be beaten to death by an ordinary ninja with three punches and two kicks, it would just be a neat trick for kids.
After all, no matter how many ordinary ninjas there were in the Ninja world, they couldn’t stop Uchiha Madara from summoning a meteorite.
[Side Mission: Defeat Hyuga Hinata (1/1)]
[Reward: 100 gold coins]
“…”
Uehara’s head was full of question marks.
That’s not right. This is Hyuga Hinata, the super-popular heroine from the Naruto Anime. Why did he only get 100 gold coins as a reward? 100 gold coins were the worst reward!
Uehara couldn’t help but pull the system panel again and took a look at missions with Hinata in them. There were so many that he practically turned blind!
“Aren’t there any serious missions?”
Uehara tapped on his forehead and sighed, “Forget it, let’s cut other leeks first!”
