Chapter 150 Forcibly Taking the Book of Seals (Third Update)

Eight days later, on the day of the Chunin Selection Tournament exam.

Early in the morning, Li Chuan led the nobles from the Land of Fire, who had arrived in Konoha a day earlier, to the main venue for the third Chunin Exams in Konoha.

It was a large arena similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome.

The entire venue is circular, and the seats on the platform are mainly divided into three sections.

Seated on the second floor of the central area are the Kage of the two largest ninja villages in this Chunin Exam, Konoha and Sunagakure, along with their guards.

Seated on the left are the daimyo and nobles from the countries participating in this Chunin Exam. The daimyo of the Land of Fire is not here, and the leader is Prince Li Chuan. The daimyo of the Land of Wind is also not here, and even the nobles of slightly higher status are not here.

The daimyo of the Land of Grass and the Land of Waterfalls have arrived, but because they are small countries, their presence is very low.

As for the Land of Rain, it has no daimyo, but it does have nobles, and some of them have come, though their presence is also very low.

Therefore, in terms of status, Li Chuan, the prince of the Land of Fire, became the most distinguished person in this region.

The area on the right is the largest, and it's mostly filled with Konoha ninjas and villagers who came to watch the game. Kakashi, Guy, Hinata, Sakura, and others are all there.

After a brief address by the Third Hokage, the final official match of the Chunin Selection Exams began.

The overall process of the competition varied slightly due to the different number of participants, but the changes were not particularly significant.

For example, Naruto defeated Neji and changed Neji's mindset with his talk-no-jutsu. Shikamaru was still facing Temari. After he was about to win by overpowering her with his intelligence, he finally admitted defeat because he was afraid of trouble. He lost the game but won his wife.

"Oh, let's get started!"

Just as he was playing the fifth match, Li Chuan suddenly felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him, and then feathers began to fall from the sky. He knew that the Konoha Crush plan had officially begun.

"untie!"

Disrupting his internal chakra and dispelling the A-rank genjutsu Nirvana Abode Technique, Li Chuan quickly left his seat and went to a secluded corner where he used the Shadow Clone Technique.

He left a shadow clone behind in the venue, while his real body Apparated to the vicinity of the Konoha Secret Archives.

"Change your clothes quickly!"

Using the Transformation Jutsu to transform into someone else's appearance, and then using magic to change his noble attire into a wizard's robe, he swiftly rushed into the Konoha Secret Archives as smoke rose from the Chunin Exams venue.

"Who goes there!"

Li Chuan's intrusion immediately alerted the building's ninja guards. Two masked ninjas, whose identities were unclear—whether from the Anbu or Root—rushed at him with kunai.

However, the two were clearly not very strong, at most Chunin level. Li Chuan flashed and knocked one down with a Stun Curse, while using a Soul Stealing Curse to control the other.

"Where exactly is the Book of Seals located?"

Because most magic is targeted, it is easily dodged by agile ninjas. Therefore, when facing a ninja casting magic, Li Chuan chose to cast it at close range.

That is, by using one's physical abilities, which far surpass those of the opponent, to get close to them, and then using a magic wand to cast a spell on their forehead, making it impossible for them to dodge.

Commonly known as close-range spellcasting!

"The Book of Seals is in Room 308 on the third floor."

The Chunin, controlled by the Soul-Stealing Curse, wore a blissful expression.

He collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

After figuring out the location of the Book of Seals, Li Chuan rushed to the third floor as fast as he could.

During this time, they also encountered several ninjas, the strongest of whom had the strength of a special Jonin, but he was still defeated by the ninjas in close combat using magic.

Because the Konoha Secret Archives are located inside the village, other Jonin can quickly come to support it if the barrier is triggered, so not many people are usually stationed there.

He has already taken down the two strongest squad leaders among the Anbu and Root guards, who are both Special Jonin level.

As for follow-up support, the Third Hokage is currently trapped by Orochimaru, and the village is filled with Sand Ninja and Sound Ninja, as well as Orochimaru's summoning giant snake. Even if the Jonin wanted to provide support, they simply couldn't spare any manpower.

This is why Li Chuan chose to act during the Konoha Crush plan.

"Found it!"

On the third floor, in room 308, Li Chuan used a lock-picking spell to open the door and immediately saw a huge scroll on the shelf.

He stepped forward, took the scroll in his hand, and unrolled it. Several forbidden techniques from Konoha appeared before his eyes one by one:

"Four Symbols Seal, Eight Gates Formation, Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Impure World Reincarnation, Mutual Multiplication Explosive Talisman Technique."

After quickly glancing through it, a smile appeared on his face:

"It seems Orochimaru didn't dare to lie to me after all."

Back in the Valley of the End, he deliberately demonstrated his Apparition ability as a warning to Orochimaru not to try anything funny with him.

Otherwise, he could have entered the Four Purple Flames Formation at any time, rescued the Third Hokage, and completely thwarted Orochimaru's plan to destroy Konoha.

"Put down the Book of Seals in your hands; it is not something you can obtain."

Just as Li Chuan was about to put the Book of Seals into the small cloth bag inside his clothes, a guy covered in bandages appeared at the door with two ninjas.

It was Danzo and his two Jonin subordinates, Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu.

In his plan to destroy Konoha, Danzo intended to use Orochimaru to kill the Third Hokage, so naturally he wouldn't allow the Root ninjas to participate. However, he would also absolutely not allow anyone to use this opportunity to steal Konoha's intelligence or ninjutsu.

So when he learned that an unknown ninja had taken advantage of the chaos to enter Konoha's confidential archives, he immediately led two of his most capable subordinates to the scene.

"Then we'll have to see what you're capable of."

Li Chuan wasn't surprised by Danzo's appearance; he simply changed his method of carrying the Book of Seals from putting it in a small bag to carrying it on his back.

He could have simply Apparated away, but he still wanted something from Danzo—not the Sharingan, but a few drops of his blood.

However, he must be careful not to let the other party recognize his identity, so he cannot use his second form transformation or the ninjutsu of the Fire Temple. It would be safer to use only magic.

"Take him down!"

Danzo commanded in a cold tone.

Upon hearing this, Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu immediately rushed towards Li Chuan.

"Thunderous explosion!"

Li Chuan dared not be careless, and immediately released an explosion spell towards the wall behind him with his wand.

The Explosion Charm easily blew up the wall, allowing him to jump directly from the third floor to the spacious plaza below.

Whether it's the countless nano-sized poisonous insects that inhabit Aburame Torune's body, or Yamanaka Fu's mind-swapping technique that allows him to exchange souls and possess bodies, both are extremely troublesome.

Especially in that small room, even if he was very skilled in physical combat, it was extremely difficult to dodge due to the limited space.

Therefore, to defeat the two, you must escape to an open area outside the building and fight them.
