"Throw your scroll to me."

Akihara Kagura extended his hand in a very friendly manner.

Just the enormous size of the Wooden Dragon jutsu and the shock of seeing the Wooden Dragon for the first time would probably be enough to deter this small team from any thoughts of resistance.

Whoosh!

The scroll traced an arc through the air!

Akihara Kagura caught the scroll, maneuvered the Wooden Dragon to turn around and leave, only leaving a sentence in the wind: "Thank you for your cooperation, I hope we can cooperate again in the future."

"..."

Three Genin looked at each other in dismay.

Let's hope there isn't another opportunity like this!

Akihara Kagura glanced at the scroll in his hand.

He had completed the Heaven and Earth scrolls with the first team he encountered.

Although the young man had always believed that passing the second round would not be very difficult, he did not expect to collect the scrolls so smoothly, which inevitably made him feel a bit happier.

The remaining time of this exam...

It's probably just a leisurely time to enjoy the outdoors.

Akihara Kagura had no particular attachment to leaving quickly.

He knew that Shimura Danzo was in a bad mood, and after leaving, he would still have to face Danzo's deadpan expression. It was better to stay here a bit longer.

When the boss is in a bad mood, you should definitely not approach him actively, especially when you are the reason for his bad mood. It's better to give the boss some time to cool off.

"I wonder when I will encounter the next team..."

Akihara Kagura, riding the Wooden Dragon, moved through the Forest of Death, planning to find his chef team for the next few days and also trying to track down Uchiha Itachi.

It's a pity, though.

The Forest of Death is ultimately too vast.

The entire Forest of Death has a radius of at least ten kilometers.

In this forest of over three hundred square kilometers, scattered are more than a dozen teams, even their entrances are unknown, and the dense forest also serves as their cover and protection.

This is a game of escape, hiding, and plunder.

Only Akihara Kagura, relying on his Wooden Dragon, can arrogantly move through the Forest of Death and even use this advantage to search for nearby enemies.

However…

The disadvantages of the Wooden Dragon were also quite obvious.

Human beings naturally have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. All enemies who could see the Wooden Dragon, after their initial shock, would quietly hide.

Akihara Kagura had a massive amount of chakra, which also enhanced his perception of chakra, but it still couldn't compare to the strongest sensory Kekkei Genkai in the ninja world, the Byakugan.

The ninja teams participating in the exam all chose to hide.

With the situation in the Forest of Death unclear and a massive Wooden Dragon roaming the skies above, the best choice was undoubtedly to hide and avoid unknown dangers.

Even Uchiha Itachi had to choose to lurk.

The entire Forest of Death gradually became silent.

Akihara Kagura patrolled back and forth twice, and it seemed that his luck had run out after encountering the first team, as he didn't come across a second team of competitors.

"Is there no one willing to come out?"

Akihara Kagura frowned and controlled the Wooden Dragon to head towards the central tower: "If no one wants to come out, then never come out again!"

On the outskirts of the Forest of Death.

A group of examiners stayed on the outskirts of the Forest of Death, discussing the unexpected developments in the exam. Their duty was to ensure the smooth progress of the second stage of the exam.

Obviously.

There was an unexpected development in the Forest of Death.

Akihara Kagura was the biggest unexpected factor.

Since Mitarashi Anko had brought back the news that Akihara Kagura was a Wood Release ninja, and with orders from the Hokage's office, the examiners made him their focus.

"Has he finally stopped wandering?"

"What does that kid want to do?"

"What we should be more concerned about is how long can this jutsu last?"

"At the moment, we don't know. We haven't seen the First Hokage's Wood Release jutsu, so we don't know how long a Wood Release can last…"

"The Hokage told us not to worry."

"If that kid wants to use this method to search for enemies, someone should tell him that it won't work. The enemies will just keep hiding…"

"Having strong power without enough brains is useless. His actions will only make other teams too scared to move…"

"It's getting dark…"

"Everyone needs to prepare supplies."

"This wilderness survival might turn into a wilderness escape…"

"Did that kid manage to collect all the scrolls? Are the two scrolls in his hand 'Heaven' and 'Earth'? If he gathers them early, he should come out sooner!"

"The surveillance can't make it out clearly…"

A group of examiners looked at the giant wooden dragon moving in the monitor, feeling a terrible headache. They had never seen such a troublesome candidate in the Chunin Exams before.

Once the candidate, Akihara Kagura, relies on his ninjutsu to cause some trouble, it wouldn't be good if he completely disrupts the Chunin Exams.

However…

Unexpectedly, accidents still happen.

An examiner suddenly looked at the monitor screen in front of him in horror.

"Something big has happened!"

"That wooden dragon has entwined the tower!"

"Don't panic!"

As the chief examiner, Yamashiro Aoba, holding his sunglasses, tried to appear calm: "It's okay, that kid must want to blockade the final tower, to lie in wait for other teams there…"

Yamashiro Aoba felt he had grasped Akihara Kagura's intentions and slowly continued: "This strategy is not new; few succeed each year. Even if his ninjutsu is strong, it's not certain he can catch the cunning…"

"But…"

Mitarashi Anko, with a dumpling in her mouth, muttered: "I remember that broken tower in the Forest of Death hasn't been repaired for many years…"

"The tower has collapsed!"

An examiner responsible for monitoring the tower area suddenly burst out, his face full of panic: "That wooden dragon entangled the tower and directly destroyed it! The checkpoint for the second stage of the exam has been destroyed by that kid!"

"What the hell!"

"Why block everyone's path!"

"This is going to add so much trouble to our work!"

All the examiners on site instantly boiled with excitement!

This was adding a difficulty to the normal workflow that the staff could not solve, nor had they even considered!

The only chief examiner, Yamashiro Aoba, had cold sweat on his forehead. His nature was somewhat timid, and at this moment, he seemed to be trying to maintain his calm, "Don't panic... Don't panic... Don't panic... Think about what to do in this situation…"

"What are you waiting for!"

Mitarashi Anko, biting a dumpling, voiced her opinion, "The Tower is just a signal marker for arrival. Inside the tower is just the correct method to open the Heaven and Earth Scroll. As long as the candidates arrive with the Heaven and Earth Scrolls…"

"Now quickly dispatch someone to stand guard there to avoid panic. When a candidate arrives in that area with the Heaven and Earth Scrolls, just tell them the correct way to open it, and there won't be any problems."

"Anko!"

Yamashiro Aoba, as if greatly relieved, quickly rushed to Mitarashi Anko, "This matter... I'll leave it to you! Go there immediately with your team!"

"..."

In the center of the Forest of Death.

The Tower had already become a ruin.

Akihara Kagura sat in front of these ruins, a huge wooden dragon spiraling over the ruins behind the boy. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, it cast the scene of a boy and a fierce dragon.
