Chapter 28 Growing Pains
Haruno Sakura has been very upset recently, not because her relationship with Sasuke has made no progress, nor because of her annoying Naruto, but because of her annoying Naruto, she really felt that she had become a drag in the three-person team. It was not forgot that the chief student Sasuke, but even Naruto caught up at the end of the crane. How can this make him happy, a top student? Now his status in Sasuke's heart is not as good as Naruto, which is really sad. What makes me even more unacceptable is that I find that all this seems to be true.
"Naruto has become stronger, Sasuke is already very powerful, I am the only one who can't help with anything!" Haruno Sakura complained on the balcony, "Do you want to take the exam at the Chunini exam? I really don't have confidence, so don't drag Sasuke and Naruto down!"
While I was struggling, I suddenly heard someone calling me.
And in another venue, Hashiki Kakashi looked at Shuimu helplessly.
"You are a barrier and a illusion array, and you have arranged so many traps and sealing techniques. If you don't know, you think you are setting up a battlefield."
"Be prepared for any trouble," replied Mizumu. "I have put in such great effort for your student, and you should thank me."
"Just a preparatory test, is it necessary to be so troublesome?"
"For the next generation of the village, we as seniors should not be afraid of trouble. Kakashi, where is your sense of responsibility?" Mizuki had planned for a long time and could not give up halfway. "Why are you staring at me here? Don't you go to see Sasuke and Naruto?"
"I'm quite relieved to the strength of the two of them," Kakashi said helplessly. "The only thing I worry about is Sakura, especially the one responsible for the assessment is you..."
"It's finally done." Shuimu, who had finished his work, turned around and asked, "What did you say just now?"
"Nothing, I mean Sakura is coming soon."
"Your eyes are so good, I didn't see it at all."
“I stand high…”
In the distance, two thin figures gradually walked over, exactly what Sasuke and Sakura looked like.
"Sasuikun, do you have something to say to me?" Sakura said uneasy, "But why do you bring me to such a place?" It was obvious that there were no people around.
"It's quieter here, no one disturbs me. I'll just tell you a long story. You'd better quit the Chunin exam." Haruno Sakura was dizzy when she said mercilessly.
Kakashi, who was hiding beside him, frowned, "I really dare to talk nonsense. It turns out that he is a bastard who is not at ease."
At this moment, while Haruno Sakura was restless, Mizuki quickly activated the illusion array, and the barrier began to cooperate with changing the surrounding terrain and landforms. Various traps and small seal arrays also began to work.
"Sasui-kun, why do you want me to quit?" Sakura asked in surprise, "Do you don't like being with me?"
"No, it's because you are not strong enough. After you quit, Naruto and I will invite more suitable people to team up for the exam."
"But, will Mr. Kakashi agree?"
"Didn't everyone say that they will participate voluntarily? As long as you withdraw, Teacher Kakashi must have nothing to say."
Looking at Sasuke pretending to be a tangled Sakura outside the court, Mizuki turned his head and smiled at Kakashi: "It's time for the villain to come on the field. Do you want to play a cameo?"
"Forgive." Kakashi refused.
"What a pity, it's so boring. I'm honestly worried about your humorous cell."
After saying that, Mizuki used the Shadow Clan technique, and then Shadow Clan turned into a masked grass ninja, then rushed over and covered the two of them with countless traps. The sudden change and the attack without dead corners left the two below with nowhere to escape, and they were immediately in desperate situation.
"Be careful, retreat quickly." Sasuke shouted and threw Sakura to the ground. In an instant, Sasuke was shot into a hedgehog and seemed to be unable to live long.
"The incompetent idiots should all get out of this Zhongnin exam, otherwise there would be such an end?" The shadow clone did not forget to mock him at the right time.
"Are you finally coming out?" Sakura turned over and pushed the Fake Sasuke away. "Do you think you can easily trick Konoha Ninja by combining the shadow clone with illusion?"
Shuimu on the sidelines frowned. Compared to the traps in the original work, Shuimu asked himself that he had done a very good job. If Shuimu, who is better at scrutinizing people's hearts, would not be so easy to find. However, the plot is not bad, and it doesn't matter if there are any changes in small details.
"Kakashi, you see Sakura's insight is really good, it can be exposed to the trap."
"After all, he has the best theoretical knowledge in Shinin, and the best chakra control is also the best. It is normal to have such performance." Kakashi also breathed a sigh of relief. At least he has excellent performance at present. As long as the next one is not bad, he will have a remark and will not prevent Sakura from taking the Chunin exam.
The shadow clone had to attack for being exposed unexpectedly.
"It seems that you are very confident in yourself. Little girl, the Chunin exam is not such a joke. Everything will become a reality. Since you don't want to give up, let the uncle give you some colors."
Before the words were finished, the magic tricks started again, rows of kunai shot, blocking all retreat routes. Then a hazy light and shadow on the ground, three wooden puppet warriors rose up and drew their swords and chopped towards Haruno Sakura.
Faced with the attack from all directions, Sakura turned a blind eye and made seals with both hands, preparing to remove the illusion. Kyuubi passed through Sakura's body, but it was unharmed. The two long knives of the puppet also slashed across Sakura's body, but they were still not injured. Just as the third long knives of the puppet were about to cut Sakura's head, Sakura suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly dodged sideways, but was still one step slower, and a strand of hair fell along the blade.
"The combination of virtual and real in illusion, Shuimu, is this difficulty too high for the low endurance?" Kakashi said dissatisfied.
Mizuki replied: "It is indeed too difficult for the new Shinin, but it is barely reasonable for Shinin who wants to take the Zhongnin exam."
"Hmm." Kakashi reluctantly accepted this statement.
"How is it, little girl, are you going to be unable to do it? Quit out quickly, otherwise the next time it will be hair."
"No, I won't admit defeat to a guy like you who is hiding his head and tail."
"Is it meaningless? It's so naive, so let you experience the cruelty of ninjas."
The formation barrier was completely activated, and the Shadow clone cooperated with the puppet and directly killed him. Haruno Sakura, who was in danger, did not retreat but advanced, rushed directly to the puppet warrior, instantly kicking the puppet made of inferior wood, and then flew back and avoided the Kyuba who shot out of the Shadow clone.
"It's almost done, Shuimu, do you still have to continue?"
"There is a beginning and an end, there is not much time left for the Shadow Clan."
Next, while the clone of Mizuki was deliberately letting go, he always maintained a situation of attacking and defense. Finally, the exhausted Sakura Haruno finally persisted until the clone of Mizuki was disappearing.
Just when Kakashi thought it was over, the puppet that was originally kicked away by Sakura suddenly recovered quickly and then quickly waved his knife at Sakura.
"What's going on? Why didn't the barrier disappear?" Kakashi could confirm that the Mizuki body around him did not take action. When the shadow clone disappeared, no one should have used chakra to support the barrier, and everything would have to disappear. When he saw the puppet that should have been abandoned, Kakashi was shocked and pulled open his forehead to reveal the blocked Sharingan to observe carefully.
"What is that? It's not an ordinary puppet?"
Under the insight of the Sharingan, ordinary illusions and hidden truths are nowhere to be hidden.
"Did the Shadow Clan use the transformation technique? It doesn't look like this. It's actually this one that has been supporting the illusion barrier." Kakashi turned his head in surprise and asked, "It seems that your purpose is to test this thing. He is really a scheming guy."
Sakura was struggling to dodge, but her long-exhausted body could no longer hold on. Her body was exhausted and her steps slipped, and she was cut by the unknown creature who was caught up with her.
Sakura, who could not avoid it, could only close her eyes helplessly.
But Sakura, who had closed her eyes and waited for death, did not wait for the sharp blade to come, so she opened her eyes to observe and saw a strand of hair falling down the blade.
Sakura, who survived the disaster, could no longer support her already overdrawn body and immediately collapsed on the ground.
"I just peeled my hair on my left, but now I broke the right one again. I finally have a symmetrical shape, and my hairstyle looks normal. I'm sorry for hurting your carefully cared hair." A sharp voice came out of the puppet's mouth, "To thank you for your hard work, I'll give it to you." A scroll was thrown to Haruno Sakura, "But you should think carefully about what I said. Without corresponding strength, it will only be a burden to others."
Kakashi said to Shuimu with an ugly face: "You've played too much, Shuimu."
"Hasn't you given compensation?" Shuimu shrugged indifferently, then made a seal and "solve it."
The puppet turned into a chakra smoke and disappeared, and then the illusion barrier gradually disappeared.
"What did you give to Sakura?"
"These are all my recent research results. Some sealing techniques, potions, and illusion materials are very practical. They are most suitable for Sakura-like ninjas who are a student and a chakra-controlled ninja."
"Academic master?" Although he didn't understand it very much, it did not prevent Kakashi from understanding the meaning. "Isn't it too early for her?"
Mizuki shook his head and sighed, "Kakashi, you are biased. Although you are not as talented as Sasuke as you, nor as talented as Naruto, you shouldn't turn a blind eye to Haruno Sakura's talent, right?"
"Maybe you're right, I'm really not very good at dealing with this kind of female ninja."
"Carry?" Shuimu smiled, "It's not my business anyway. She is your student, not mine, so it's up to you. I'm going to submit a report, and I'll leave it to you."
