Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

Baiyun Qingye nodded, looking at the green bodysuit the other person was wearing.

Naruto only wears this outfit when he is training.

Of the three, only Naruto's injuries fully recovered overnight.

"Ok!"

Naruto nodded seriously, "I must become stronger as soon as possible!"

"If I had been able to open the Sixth Gate back then, Sasuke and Sai wouldn't have suffered such serious injuries."

"Naruto, how did Sasuke get such serious injuries?"

Kiba Inuzuka walked over, looking at Sasuke wrapped in bandages with a surprised expression.

He hadn't expected that Sasuke, with his strength, would be injured so severely.

"We've encountered a rather strong opponent. If Aoba hadn't come in time to drive that guy away, we would have been in serious danger."

Naruto scratched his head and explained.

"There's actually someone this powerful..."

Kiba Inuzuka nodded.

Sasuke had already gritted his teeth.

A strong sense of resentment filled his heart.

In yesterday's battle with Orochimaru, no matter what methods he used, they were easily neutralized by Orochimaru.

Whether it's ninjutsu, taijutsu, or genjutsu, he is no match for his opponent.

But Shirokumo Aoba was different; even a single clone of him was enough to send Orochimaru fleeing in a sorry state.

He's been working so hard lately, but he's still fallen even further behind.

Shirokumo Aoba noticed Sasuke's expression and roughly guessed what he was thinking.

All I can say is that Sasuke was too ambitious.

He just graduated this year, yet he's already able to exchange a few blows with Orochimaru; he's a genius among geniuses.

Kakashi was so scared when he saw Orochimaru that he didn't dare to move.

As for comparing themselves to Baiyun Qingye, that would be asking for trouble.

Even if your Uchiha clan's ancestor appeared before him now, he would have to slap him first before he could speak.

However, Sasuke was so confident before, but now that he's been beaten up, he'll probably have to stay quiet for a while.

Baiyun Qingye sat down at the table next to them.

"Hong, would you like to have dinner together?"

Asuma sat down at another table, intending to take the opportunity to invite Kurenai Yuhi to have dinner with him.

Kurenai Yuhi glanced at the three students who were already seated on her side and shook her head.

He walked over and sat down opposite Baiyun Qingye and the other two.

"No, I still need to talk to them about the qualifiers."

"Oh, I see. I'll tell them about it too."

Sarutobi Asuma didn't think much of it; he would be staying at the central tower for the next four days.

He always finds an opportunity.

However, he couldn't find an opportunity in the following days.

These past few days, Baiyun Qingye has been living a shameless life.

During the day, she practices with several girls at the training ground, and at night she practices with Uzuki Yugao and Terumi Mei in the lounge.

The second round of the Chunin Exams is about to end.

Four days passed quickly.

Teams that did not reach the central tower were eliminated even if they did.

The preliminary rounds are about to begin.

Chapter 255 Xiao Nan's Changes

early morning.

After breakfast, Shirokumo Aoba met Tsunade again.

The two arrived at the Hokage's office on the upper floor of the tower.

The preliminary rounds won't start until the afternoon.

The morning is a time for people to adjust their state of mind.

At this time, the genin were all in the rest room preparing for battle.

There were only Tsunade and Shirakumo Aoba in the office.

"Teacher, is there something you need?"

Shirokumo Aoba asked Tsunade with a natural expression.

"It's about Orochimaru."

Tsunade's face also showed no unusual expression.

Having not seen each other for a few days, the two of them tacitly forgot the memory of the "rebellious disciple" special CG that had been triggered in this office a few days ago.

Orochimaru?

"Use your Kagura Mind's Eye to scan the ninjas inside the tower and see if you can find Orochimaru's trail."

Orochimaru used the technique of erasing facial features, making him undetectable by ordinary sensory methods.

Konoha has been searching diligently for some time, but so far they have found nothing.

Is there a reward if we find it?

Baiyun Qingye asked curiously in return.

Click!

Tsunade snapped the pen in her hand, gritting her teeth. "Are you going to do it or not?"

"Dry!"

As Baiyun Qingye spoke, he pretended to sense things.

a long time.

"Hmm... I didn't sense any chakra related to Orochimaru in the Forest of Death."

Not even a little?

Despite it being good news, Tsunade's expression became even more serious.

In her mind, Orochimaru was definitely not someone who would give up easily.

The other party is like a venomous snake, lurking in the shadows, waiting for you to let your guard down before delivering a fatal blow.

"Teacher, don't worry, if he dares to come out, I'll take action!"

This is Shirakumo Aoba's confident declaration.

"This can't be done by you alone."

Tsunade took a deep breath. "Go back and prepare for your exam this afternoon. Be careful."

"it is good."

Baiyun Qingye left the office.

I walked towards the restaurant downstairs.

But after entering the restaurant, he suddenly saw a woman with blue-purple hair wearing a black dress that exposed her armpits standing in front of a ramen shop window.

From Baiyun Qingye's perspective, one can see the other person's fair and delicate shoulders.

Is this Xiao Nan?

In an instant, a sense of curiosity flashed through my mind.

The only girl with blue-purple hair is Xiaonan.

But why would Xiao Nan wear clothes like that?

Baiyun Qingye curiously walked towards the other party.

Just then, the older woman seemed to notice his gaze and turned around.

"Aoba?"

"Sister Xiao Nan?!"

The two sat down together at a table in front of the ramen shop window.

"Why isn't Konan with the ninjas from Amegakure?"

Xiao Nan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, and with her current clothes, she looked incredibly charming.

"In this exam, all members of Amegakure have been eliminated."

"I see."

That makes sense, since Chunin Exams of this level generally end up as a battle between the major ninja villages.

It's difficult for a small village like Amegakure to cultivate ninjas of the same caliber as the Five Great Ninja Villages.

Baiyun Qingye looked very serious, but his eyes would often wander uncontrollably to the side.

This mature young woman has now removed her lip piercing and shed her heavy black robe.

The tight-fitting black dress gave Xiao Nan a just-right sense of maturity.

This was the first time Baiyun Qingye had ever seen the scenery beneath the black robe.
