Chapter 31

When Liu Sheng returned to Konoha, there were less than 24 hours left for the second exam.Since Hinata's access control is very strict, Liu Sheng didn't look for her after returning, but started to set foot on Konoha.The current Konoha is an extraordinary period.The return of Orochimaru made Konoha's senior management busy.So Liu Sheng came to Konoha's cemetery and did not attract the attention of the guards.Even if he is discovered, Liu Sheng can still explain that he came to visit his parents who sacrificed for Konoha.In fact, Liu Sheng visits the cemetery several times a year for his own tomb robbery plan.When he was young, Liu Sheng learned from the guards that Konoha's funerals were all burials.Not only Konoha, but to be precise, from thousands of years ago to the present, the funerals of the ninja world are all burials.Moreover, the anti-corrosion work in this world is done very well, even if the corpse is buried for many years, it will still be the same as if it had just died.This is also the reason why Yakushi Kabuto was able to rob graves everywhere and bring countless dead ninjas to Impure World Reincarnation.As long as he didn't turn into a skeleton, and as long as his brain was still there, Liu Sheng's devouring ability could obtain the other party's blood inheritance limit and part of his memory.Therefore, Liu Sheng has had the urge to rob graves more than once in the cemetery in recent years.But at that time, Liu Sheng's strength was too weak.If he dared to do this, even if he defected immediately, he would definitely be caught up by Elite Jōnin and Anbu.Therefore, Liu Sheng endured until now.The Konoha collapse plan a month later will be Liu Sheng's chance.If Otonin Village and Sunagakure broke in at the same time, even if the cemetery was destroyed and a large number of corpses disappeared, Tsunade who took over Konoha would only suspect that Orochimaru, who mastered Impure World Reincarnation, did it.The only regret is that there is no body of Senju Hashirama in the cemetery.As the best descendant of Ōtsutsuki Ashura, and also the first person under the Six Paths level powerhouse, to what extent has Senju Hashirama developed the body of a sage?When it was developed, even if he died, the corpse was still full of vitality, infinitely stronger than a living person.Those experimental subjects implanted with Hashirama cells will all explode and die.And the only person who has not died is now the first Anbu person in Konoha, the current "sky burial", and the future teacher Yamato.Also, Shimura Danzō is able to have so many Sharingan, also because of the Hashirama cells.Not to mention Uchiha Obito, thanks to Hashirama cells, Mangekyō Sharingan can be used as Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.The body of Senju Hashirama is a huge treasure.Therefore, it is impossible for his body to be in the coffin.Otherwise, if Liu Sheng devours Senju Hashirama's body, he will definitely be able to obtain super Kage-level energy and immortal body, as well as the Wood Style blood succession limit to calm down the troubled times.But Wood Style and Mangekyō Sharingan, or even Rinnegan and Tenseigan, or even Blood Successor Snare, Liu Sheng will have them sooner or later.For today's plan, the plan of "Fish Leaping over the Dragon's Gate" is the top priority.After checking the points, Liu Sheng returned home and waited for the end of the second exam.At noon of the next day, Liu Sheng, Hinata and Aburame Shino met at the place where the eighth class often gathers, and then the three of them came to the outside of the death forest, and returned to the central tower under the cooperation of the outside world and the invigilator of the central tower in.At this point in time, many candidates have already arrived at the central tower.However, they who arrived at the central tower on the last day obviously did not receive the same treatment as the eighth class and Gaara's three siblings. They were all dirty, and some even had wounds and blood on their bodies.Among these candidates, Liu Sheng quickly found Ino–Shika–Chō."Liu Sheng, Hinata, when did you guys come?"Ino–Shika–Chō also found the eighth class, and Ino immediately trotted over and asked happily."We arrived at the central tower on the first day, and then left the death forest with the help of the Summoning array. We have been at home for the past few days."Liu Sheng touched Ino's head, looked at Ino with a little dirty face, and said gently: "It's been hard these few days, it's good to be fine.""Hee hee...Actually, we were able to come to the central tower a long time ago, but something happened on the way." Ino rubbed Liu Sheng's palm without shyness, and talked about their experiences in the past few days with a smile.Just as Liu Sheng thought, Ino–Shika–Chō accidentally saw Squad 7 who was being targeted by the trio of Toss.Ino, who did not fall out with Haruno Sakura, rescued Haruno Sakura together with Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Chōji, until Uchiha Sasuke, who was imprinted by the curse, woke up.During the period, Ino–Shika–Chō suffered a lot at the hands of the Toth trio because Lee Locke did not show up.The dirty body is also the reason for fighting the Toss trio."The three guys?"After listening to Ino's words, Liu Sheng glanced in the direction of the Toss trio, with a cold light in his eyes.But on the surface, Liu Sheng said with a smile: "If you meet them in the third exam, I will avenge you.""Uh-huh..."Ino nodded vigorously, and started chatting with Hinata.And Nara Shikamaru reminded: "Liu Sheng, if you meet those three guys from Yinnin Village, you must be careful of the devices on their bodies. It is a sound wave ninjutsu that can attack the enemy without touching it. .""If it wasn't for the first exam, if I saw them hurt Senior Dou in this way, I might be fooled by them when I fight against them.""I see." Liu Sheng nodded seriously.While Class 8 and Class 10 were chatting, the time for the second exam was finally over.After a while, an invigilator came to inform the Genins in the lounge to gather in the lobby of the central tower.When Liu Sheng came to the hall and scanned all the candidates, he found that the number was the same as the original, except that there were three more people.And these three people were Abandoned by Third Hokage, Inuzuka Kiba and the others teamed up with two commoner Genins, that is... Squad 11.Counting the twelve Xiaoqiangs, two commoner ninjas, and Liu Sheng himself, only Konoha Genin, who passed the second exam, reached fifteen people.Including Yakushi Kabuto who was undercover in Konoha, and Red Copper Armor and Jian Meicheng are all Konoha Shinobi, so there are 18 Konoha Genin who passed the exam.And how many candidates have passed the second exam?The answer is... twenty-four people!Yes, among the twenty-four candidates, Konoha's Genin accounted for eighteen, and the rest of the candidates were all buried in the death forest.The only one who survived was Xianglin who was sent out of the death forest by Liu Sheng.However, only 24 people passed the second exam, and Konoha's senior management still felt that the number was a bit too much.The third exam is an important competition to show national strength to other countries, and only elites can stand on that stage.Therefore, before the start of the third exam, all candidates will have a preliminary round in the central tower.Twenty-four candidates were just divided into twelve groups, and twelve outstanding Genin were selected to show the quality of this year's Genin to other countries and their own country.Then, based on the performance of these Genins, each side of Ninja Village will consider whether to promote their own Genin to be the leader of the Chūnin team.
