Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

Moreover, he not only grew taller, but also gained muscle, just not as explosively.

She has a very well-proportioned figure.

The mascot, Xian Hongdou, is 1.67 meters tall, which is considered quite tall among the female ninjas of Konoha.

Even Tsunade isn't as tall as her; Tsunade is only 1.63 meters tall.

Yu Ming, who had entered the Forest of Death, walked easily behind Xiao Ying and the other two.

I'm not worried at all about being attacked.

They didn't encounter any other teams along the way, probably because they were afraid of Yu Ming's strength and therefore didn't appear by Yu Ming's side.

Even Gaara did not approach Yu Ming.

After walking for half a day without encountering a team, it got dark, so the group sat down by a small river to grill fish and eat.

This was truly a wilderness survival experience.

Moreover, it is even more dangerous than ordinary wilderness areas.

This Death Forest is teeming with poisonous insects and ferocious beasts.

If you're not careful, even a Chunin could die.

That evening, the group sat silently around the fire.

Sakura felt safe with Yu Ming by her side.

However, Sasuke and Naruto felt that with Yu Ming nearby, they couldn't possibly encounter any other teams.

The two were a little annoyed. After finishing the fish, Naruto finally couldn't hold back and looked at Yu Ming, saying, "Yu Ming, they're all afraid of you. No one's looking for us anymore. They're hiding from us everywhere. Do you want to go alone? Let's go find those teams, get the scrolls, and then meet up?"

Sasuke nodded and said, "That's right. You really shocked them during the first exam. They didn't dare to get close to you. If this continues, we won't be able to find the scroll."

Sakura frowned and said, "That's not a good idea. We're a team. If they don't come, we can go find them. There's no need to leave Yu Ming alone."

However, Yu Ming laughed and said, "That's also acceptable."

In fact, it didn't matter to Yu Ming. With his speed and perception, he could sense the location of other ninjas within a ten-kilometer radius.

However, he had no intention of continuing with them.

Moreover, he knew that his role this time was just to accompany Sasuke and the others in taking the exam, and it would be more appropriate for them to take the exam themselves. Kakashi probably thought so too.

Sakura, on the other hand, felt that doing so would make Yu Ming feel that they were ostracizing him.

But Yu Ming actually agreed, and Xiao Ying quickly said, "No, we are a team, we can't be separated."

Sakura wasn't really concerned about whether Yu Ming's strength was enough to protect them, since their opponents weren't that strong anyway.

What she was concerned about was that Yu Ming would think they were rejecting him because of this.

Sakura didn't want Yu Ming to have this feeling.

Yu Ming laughed and said, "It's alright. I was going to advance in this exam no matter what. The Third Hokage promised me that he would promote me to Chunin this year. So I'm just here to accompany you in this exam."

"Being with you guys all the time really feels like I'm helping you with your exams. Let's leave it at that, take a rest for the night, and we'll split up starting tomorrow."

Sasuke and Naruto nodded, pleased. "Thank you, Yu Ming."

Yu Ming smiled and waved his hand.

Sakura held his hand tightly, looking at Yu Ming with great sadness.

Yu Ming looked at Xiao Ying like that, and just smiled; he felt nothing at all.

Chapter 84

The next day, Yu Ming disappeared from the group of three.

Sakura was the first to wake up, only to find that Yu Ming was no longer beside her.

For a moment, I felt a little disappointed.

"Why did Yu Ming leave without saying a word? It must be because Naruto and Sasuke's words yesterday upset him."

Sakura felt a little guilty.

She felt that with Yu Ming's strength, they could easily find the other teams unless they actively sought them out.

Unfortunately, Yu Ming doesn't seem willing to do that.

After leaving the group, Yu Ming arrived at the other side of the Death Forest, in a completely different direction from Sasuke and the others.

The Third Hokage, who had been observing the group, smiled and said, "It seems he understands that this Chunin Exam isn't meant to test him."

Kakashi and Asuma, who were standing to the side, all nodded.

Kakashi said, "He should know very well that this exam is meant to test Sasuke and the others, and for him, such a Chunin exam is completely meaningless."

Asuma also laughed and said, "Is this kid the powerful ninja from Kakashi's team? Indeed, he's very strong in terms of speed."

Kurenai Yuhi nodded.

"Hmm, not bad. In my team, Hinata seems to be quite infatuated with him too."

Kai chuckled and said, "But I reckon none of these ninjas can threaten Yu Ming, except for Gaara."

Kai has already noticed how terrifying Gaara is.

His strength has definitely reached the level of an elite Chunin, or even a Jonin.

However, he knew that no matter how strong Gaara was, he was definitely not as strong as Yu Ming, but he couldn't say that directly.

Asuma, Kurenai, Anko, and the Third Hokage still don't know just how powerful Yu Ming really is.

Only a few people who participated in that mission knew Yu Ming's approximate strength.

Moreover, Yu Ming has now mastered many forbidden techniques, perfected the Wood Release technique, and mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique. Just how powerful he is, even they can only guess.

However, when they make their guesses, the lower limit is relatively high, at least at the level of a movie star.

It even reached the level of the Third Hokage, the Kage level.

The Third Hokage nodded and said, "That Gaara is a bit strange, but he is the son of the Fourth Kazekage, so it's normal for him to be stronger and more talented. After all, the Fourth Kazekage has the Magneton bloodline limit."

“His three children are indeed very talented.”

The three Gaara siblings are all highly regarded.

At this point, Gaara and his two siblings had all reached the level of Chunin, and Gaara's strength had even reached the level of Jonin.

Hongdou looked at Yuming in the picture with interest in her eyes.

However, after watching for only a short while, the Third Hokage shut down the telescope technique. Using this telescope technique consumes a great deal of chakra, and even the Third Hokage was reluctant to use his chakra for such a thing.

Of course, he would be quite motivated to peep into the women's bathhouse.

After the third generation removed the telescope technique, Yu Ming stood up.

When the previous three generations watched him, Yu Ming always sat next to a pile of flames to warm himself.

Because of Yu Ming's presence, many teams immediately ran away after noticing his presence from afar, and no one dared to provoke him.

Therefore, he became the most relaxed person during this exam.

Yu Ming spent the entire day in the forest sitting in meditation.

Actually, it was a period of quiet meditation.

His physical and mental strength has been increasing continuously, never ceasing.

His physique has now reached the level of Kushina Uzumaki.

Kushina Uzumaki is the strongest embodiment of the Uzumaki clan's physique, second only to Mito Uzumaki.

His mental strength has even reached a level surpassing that of a Kage.

Its chakra has already exceeded that of Naruto plus half of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

I spent a day meditating in the Forest of Death and then spent another night there.

On the third day, Yu Ming sensed a fight in the forest.

It was just five kilometers away from him.

Yu Ming carefully examined the area and, after figuring it out, smiled and said, "So it's this person. Interesting. It seems Orochimaru has already made his move on Sasuke by now."

As soon as Yu Ming finished speaking, he transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared.

This is his Lightning Instantaneous Body Technique, which is many times faster than the Instantaneous Body Technique.

Moreover, it is extremely long-lasting, and the teleportation distance is also very far, a full five kilometers.

With a lightning-fast movement technique, Yu Ming appeared at the scene of the battle.

Standing on a large tree nearby, I looked at the 1729 battle and 119 fight, which was several dozen meters away from the novel group.

Seeing Anko about to perish together with Orochimaru, Yu Ming smiled and said, "You're still too naive. Don't you know your teacher? How could he be so easily dragged down to die with you?"

With that, Yu Ming disappeared into the treetops.

When he reappeared, he stood next to Anko and punched Orochimaru in the face.

"Click~".

"Boom!"

Orochimaru's body was instantly turned into dirt after being hit by Yu Ming's punch.

The giant tree behind him, which was two or three meters wide, was completely reduced to wood chips due to the force of Yu Ming's punch.

"Wind Release: Wind Blade Technique".

He sensed the wind blades rapidly flying towards him from the side.

Yu Ming picked up Hong Dou and transformed into a bolt of lightning, disappearing from sight.

"Boom!"

The wind blades sliced ​​the spot where they had just been standing into countless pieces.

Orochimaru was already standing more than ten meters away.

Yu Ming wrapped one arm around Hong Dou's waist, while his other hand rapidly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Flame Bullet".

"Boom!"
