After dealing with Kurotsuchi, Orochimaru summoned dozens of small snakes to check if there were any other ninjas in the Forest of Death.
After some investigation, Orochimaru determined that only the Genin and Wood Leaf's Anbu members were left in the Forest of Death. Naruto's safety was guaranteed.
Orochimaru's "mission" was over, so he carried Kurotsuchi and left the Forest of Death.
As for Naruto and Sasuke, after chatting for a while, they began to recover their Chakra.
When the two of them had mostly recovered, Xiao Ying arrived with Class Ten from not too far away.
Shikamaru looked at the destroyed trees around him and the large piece of scorched land in front of him. He had a rough idea of the situation at that time.
"Why are you here?" Naruto asked strangely.
"Sakura told us that you were targeted by Shinobu Iwa Village's Genin and a powerful woman in the Forest of Death, so we rushed here immediately.
Sakura said that the woman is at least an Elite Jonin. You can win against her. Sure enough, Sasuke is really powerful! "Ino said excitedly.
Naruto immediately retorted, "Hey! Ino, I was the one who contributed more in the battle just now! And we didn't kill that woman. "
Shikamaru frowned, "Not you? But what about the scorched land over there? What happened? Tell me. "
When Naruto was organizing his words, Sasuke said first, "Let me tell you! At that time, Naruto and I did hit that woman with our combined Ninjutsu … "
Sasuke told Shikamaru about the incident in detail. Shikamaru was shocked after hearing Orochimaru's name, "Orochimaru? Sasuke, are you talking about that Orochimaru? "
Sasuke nodded, "Yes! That's him! "
"It's really troublesome. I didn't expect that there would be such a big shot in the Chunin Exam. If I knew, I wouldn't have participated." Shikamaru muttered in a low voice.
"Who is Orochimaru?" Sakura asked in a low voice. Choji on the side was also curious.
Shikamaru sighed and briefly told them about Orochimaru's glorious deeds.
After listening to Shikamaru's narration, Sakura's expression became more and more nervous. Chōji still looked indifferent, but he asked a question that everyone wanted to know, "Shikamaru, why is there such a powerful person in the Chunin Exam?"
After a moment of silence, Shikamaru pointed at Naruto and said, "I think it's probably because of him!"
"Me? Why me? "Naruto asked curiously.
"It's very simple, it's because of your identity. You are the new Kyuubi Jinchuriki of Konoha, and you can communicate with the Bijuu at such a young age and use the power of the Kyuubi. The Rock Village is afraid of Nine Tails, which is why they sent someone to kill you.
As for Orochimaru, he was probably sent by Uncle Ryo to protect you. "
After listening to Shikamaru's words, Sasuke also suddenly realized that everything could be explained.
"Sasuke, did you just say that Orochimaru went after that woman?" Shikamaru asked.
Sasuke nodded, "Yes! Orochimaru went after that woman. As for whether he left the Forest of Death, I'm not sure. "
Shikamaru bowed his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Orochimaru should have left!"
"Shikamaru, how do you know?"
"Because Naruto is safe. Sasuke just said that the Shinobu Iwa Village's Genin were very respectful when they saw that woman. After that woman appeared, the Shinobu Iwa Village's Genin left.
This means that this woman is very powerful in the eyes of these Shinobu Iwa Village's Genin. With her, they can definitely kill Naruto.
Since she can definitely kill Naruto, Shinobu Iwa Village shouldn't send a second person. Assassinations don't rely on more people. "
"Shikamaru, you said so much. Do you mean that Shinobu Iwa Village only sent an Elite Jonin? There are so many Genin here. Naruto is not safe!" Sakura asked.
Ino smiled and said, "Sakura, you don't understand. This Orochimaru was called by Uncle Ryo. Uncle Ryo doesn't care about the fight between Genin, so Orochimaru should be the same."
Sakura's expression changed drastically when she heard this. "In other words, now we have to face all the Shinobu Iwa Village's Genin teams?"
Shikamaru nodded, "Yes! The Shinobu Iwa Village's Genin teams should still be chasing after Naruto. "
"Tsk, it's just a group of Genin. I'm not afraid!" Naruto said disdainfully.
Sasuke glared at Naruto and said, "Idiot! With our strength, if we come one by one, of course we're not afraid. The problem is, what if these Shinobu Iwa Village swarm us? "
Ino looked at Sasuke's side profile and her eyes lit up. She quickly said, "Indeed, if these people come together, you won't be able to handle it. How about this! We'll act together with you! What do you think, Shikamaru? "
"Ah? Such a troublesome matter … "Before Shikamaru's voice fell, he felt a chill on his back. He turned around and met Ino's murderous gaze.
Shikamaru was scared and quickly changed his words. "That … I mean, such a troublesome matter, and we're companions. Of course, we have to bear it together. But I have two conditions."
"What conditions?" Sasuke asked.
"One, since we've decided to act together, all battles and actions during this period have to listen to me.
Two, because we're helping you, we have to take the scrolls first. "
Sasuke thought about it and agreed. Naruto and Sakura didn't have any objections. Team 7 and Team 10 officially formed an alliance.
After a while, Naruto and Sasuke's state had completely recovered. The six people were ready to leave after eating something.
Before leaving, Shikamaru said to everyone, "Naruto and Sasuke will be in the front, Ino and Sakura will be in the middle, and Choji and I will be at the back.
Naruto and Sasuke are much stronger than us. You two will open the way in front and attract firepower.
Ino and Sakura are girls, so it's better for them to be in the middle. Ino is a Perception Ninja, and Sakura is a Medical Ninja. It's natural for us to protect them.
Choji and I will be at the back because the family secret techniques of our Ino-Shika-Cho three clans need to cooperate with each other. Once there's a problem, Ino can immediately return to the team and form a fighting force.
Ino will establish a spiritual connection with us. At the same time, pay attention to whether there are other Genin nearby. Once there's any movement, inform us immediately.
That's it for the time being. Does anyone have any objections? "After the arrangement, Shikamaru looked at everyone and asked.
Everyone agreed. Before leaving, Sasuke looked at Shikamaru and said, "The wisdom of the Nara Clan is really terrifying. In this case, wisdom is really the most powerful weapon."
Shikamaru smiled and said, "My father often says that in the face of absolute strength, any intelligence is useless."
