In the forest of death, towering trees that have grown for many years have covered the sun above their heads. Only a few rays of insignificant sunlight can shine on the ground through the gaps between the prosperous branches and leaves of the trees, allowing the weeds that grow in the woods to survive.

For this kind of environment that is very dark even at noon, except for the rain Ninja, who rarely sees sunshine when it rains all year round, obviously not many people will like it.

At least Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Hinata who were walking in it didn't like such a dim environment.

"If Aran's guess is correct, then if we encounter the ninja of Sakai, we must be as careful as possible."

The three people who had just entered the Death Forest are still continuing to discuss the previous topic.

"Don't forget, we are taking the Zhongnin exam, not only Sakichi, but we can't be careless no matter who we meet."

After hearing Sarutobi Shinnosuke's words, Hinata couldn't help but curl his lips.

"I mean, after encountering Sai Yin, we have to be more careful."

Shinnosuke, who was refuted by Hinata, immediately retorted with an unhappy look.

"I'm not stupid, how could I not know that even if I meet Yun Yin, Yu Yin's people can't be careless."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's find a place to prepare for the overnight stay."

Yueguang Lan stopped the quarrel between her two companions and spoke.

"Ah? It's just noon now?"

After hearing this, Shinnosuke and Hinata didn't care about quarreling anymore, and couldn't help looking at him with a look of shock at the same time.

"We are not far from our final destination. Do you really want to just take this scroll of the sky now?"

Looking at the two of them with shocked faces, Yue Guanglan took out the scroll of the sky from their arms and explained to them.

"Well, how do you know that this place is not far from the target location?"

When Shinnosuke and Hinata who had explained, the shock on their faces had not yet had time to dissipate, and there was another layer of curiosity.

"Ha, I can't get familiar with this forest of death."

When Yue Guanglan heard the two of them asking, she replied with a little pride.

"Have you not discovered before that we had not encountered a beast along the way?"

"yes!"

Shinnosuke and Hinata who heard his words were only aware of it and exclaimed.

"I had heard that beasts are everywhere in the Death Forest. Even if the Shinin team accidentally entered it, it was full of dangers. Therefore, it was the examination room for the Zhongnin exam. Why didn't we even see a beast along the way?"

Hinata frowned and glanced at the surroundings, and found that there was really not even a snake or a bird.

"This must have something to do with you. Tell me, what's going on?"

I didn't see any beast's Ninnosuke, so I couldn't guess that this must be related to Moonlight Arashi, so I immediately started to ask questions.

Although Hinata did not speak, the expression on her face also represented the same meaning.

‘If you dare not say it today, then wait for us to ravage it.’

"All right."

Yueguanglan nodded indifferently and told them in detail about the previous "monster sweeping" activity in the Death Forest.

Of course, he couldn't tell the story of experience, but gaining combat experience by fighting beasts actually sounds like the same thing.

"No wonder I went to find you every morning during that time and you were sleeping. It turned out that I came to fight in the Forest of Death every night!"

After listening to his story about Shinnosuke, he immediately recalled his past experiences and pointed at him with dissatisfaction and started to yell loudly.

"Why didn't you tell me at that time and let me fight with you with the beasts and increase your combat experience?"

"Yes, and I. We are from the same team, so we should act together."

Hinata, who was beside him, quickly followed him to help.

"I've scared these beasts to this kind of appearance by myself. If I call you both again, I'll probably change my name with the Forest of Death."

...

While Yueguang Lan was quarreling with her friends, Sand and the Sakai Shangnin who came with him this time also gathered together.

The purpose is naturally to discuss the next plan.

After learning the specific information about Moonlight Arashi from the spy, the group of Sand-ini ninjas led by Sand had made up their minds to take action before Moonlight Arashi grows up and bury this future that may become the second Konoha ninja to become the second Haki Sakuroshi.

However, since Konoha Anbu and Diosande had been surveillance for them, they had become more tightly scrutinized.

Moreover, even if the surveillance of Konoha's Anbu has not changed, it is obviously very difficult for so many of them to avoid Konoha's surveillance and attack Moonlight Arashi in the Death Forest.

Therefore, Sand could only place his hopes on the spy who is now unaware of life and death, and he also did not want to see the second Konoha force appearing in the second Konoha white teeth.

In addition, they have to think about another question, that is, how they should get out after this matter is successful, and the possible consequences of this matter.

The Konoha force, who was invisible in the dark and did not want to see the second Konoha white teeth, would definitely not cover it up for them. In order to clear away the suspicion on them, they might even pour all the dirty water on them.

So, after success, what they should do is to escape Konoha immediately and return to the Land of Wind.

Otherwise, they would definitely die at the hands of the other party like the spy who sent the message to Sand.

When the Chunin exam is in the exam, if you take action against Konoha Shinomizu, Konoha will definitely be furious, and war is likely to be inevitable.

However, Sai Yin is not afraid of war.

In the previous battle, Sakihiro was just because he was involved in too much power by Yuhiro, and the puppet master's troops who sneaked into Konoha were defeated by Haki Sakimo to lead people too quickly. He was unable to organize defensive forces in a hurry, so he was attacked by Konoha and could only be forced to seek peace.

Now that several years have passed, Satsuki has recovered. Both the top leaders and the ninjas below are deeply ashamed of the result of the previous war.

If Konoha really started a war, it would not be an unbearable result for Satsui.

Moreover, Iwaii and Konoha had a conflict in the Kingdom of Grass before, and until now, both sides still have their own opinions and are constantly rubbing against each other. If Konoha really dares to start a war, Iwaiii will definitely seek opportunities to invade the Kingdom of Fire.

At that time, Konoha will be attacked from both sides and the war will continue, which will be the first one that will not be able to bear it.

After a long discussion and analysis, the Sakai Shangnin who had once again determined to attack Yueguanglan were anxiously waiting for the opportunity they were looking forward to.
