I'm in Konoha, and I started with Ashura Chakra.

Chapter 47 His Wings Are Not Something Anyone Can Strike.

"Are those two people nearby your companions? They ran away as soon as they saw me."

"That's their style. My mother and I are outsiders, and the Grass Village doesn't trust us outsiders at all. When I came to Konoha to participate in the Chunin Exams, I was actually prepared to die."

"Did you have any Jonin to guide you along?"

"No, Kusagakure is just a small ninja village with very few Jonin. They only sent two small teams to deal with the invitation from the neighboring country."

"In that case, let me make arrangements for you."

"Mmm... whatever you say, I'll do. I'll listen to you!"

In the forest at night, two figures walked and talked along the forest path.

Just like Haku and Kimimaro, once Karin sets her mind on someone, she will be his dog for life.

Even if she can't become the mistress of the house, and even if she is hurt many times by the person she likes, Karin will not hate or become a yandere. Instead, she will be satisfied as long as the person she likes is happy, and she will never marry.

This is the difference between an ordinary simp and an ultimate simp!

And Yagyu has two such sycophants.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

Yagyu secretly activated his red-eyed X-ray vision and farsightedness, and led Karin to an entrance to the Forest of Death. Then, he formed hand seals and created a shadow clone.

Then, Yagyu took out an envelope containing banknotes from his person and handed it to Karin, saying, "The Chunin Exams will probably continue for a while. To avoid your comrades finding you, and since you can't get a permit to leave the village right now, I suggest you leave Konoha and stay somewhere in the Land of Fire for a while."

"After the Chunin Exams are over, I will bring the supervising Jonin to find you and take you back to Konoha."

"Take this money, rent a place, and eat something nice."

Karin quickly shook her head and waved her hands, saying, "Yagyu-kun, you don't need to give me money. I can find a place to stay anywhere."

"Take it."

Suddenly, Yagyu changed his gentle demeanor and forcefully shoved the envelope into Karin's hand, then laughed and said, "Your body is too weak right now. If you don't recover, the Hokage won't believe you're a descendant of the Uzumaki clan."

"If you feel bad about it, then consider this money a loan. You can pay me back once you join Konoha and are able to earn money by completing missions."

"……Um!"

Karin once again felt the warmth that only her mother could give her, and nodded vigorously with her eyes slightly moist.

"Let's go. While it's dark and no one's around, I'll have my shadow clone take you away from Konoha."

"Um."

Just as Karin was about to leave with her shadow clone, she suddenly turned to Yagyu and asked, "Yagyu-kun, where should I wait for you?"

A slight smile played on Yagyu's lips as he softly uttered a place name: "Tanabatsuchi!"

After seeing Karin off, Yagyu instantly teleported back to reunite with Shino Aburame and Hinata.

Yagyu is very confident about Karin's safety.

Now that it's late at night and there's no one around, and with her red-eyed illusion ability that even the Byakugan can't see through, Karin can walk out of Konoha's gates openly and honestly.

With his red-eye vision activated, Yagyu began searching for the location of Class 8.

After following his memories to a certain area, he stayed with Class 8 and activated his red-eyed, farsighted shadow clone, which immediately turned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared.

Shino Aburame and Hinata, who were standing nearby, were not surprised at all.

When Yagyu's shadow clone brought back the prey, it had already told them that he was just a shadow clone.

After Yagyu's true form returned, Shino Aburame couldn't help but ask, "Yagyu, did you find him?"

"No, I wasn't looking for anyone just now."

Liu Sheng shook his head and said the words he had already thought of: "I met a very interesting person while I was hunting just now. I'll introduce you to him when I have the chance."

"People from other ninja villages?"

"Well, her identity is a bit special. I need to talk to Teacher Hong about it after the exam."

Liu Sheng nodded, seemingly unwilling to say more.

Shino Aburame didn't ask any more questions.

However, both he and Hinata were somewhat curious about the person Yagyu had mentioned.

The person who can make Yagyu take it so seriously, and who would waste so much time talking to Kurenai-sensei, must be very special and important.

Thinking of this, Shino Aburame and Hinata couldn't help but recall the examinees they had been watching during the first exam.

Seeing the two deep in thought, Yagyu smiled and said, "You two rest first, I'll keep watch."

"it is good."

------

Time flew by and it was already the next morning.

After taking out the water from the storage roll and washing up briefly, Class 8 continued searching for Class 7 and Class 10.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Liu Sheng's expression changed slightly.

Then he quickly formed hand seals, creating several shadow clones.

This time, the shadow clones moved with incredible speed, and three red-eyed surveillance cameras covering a radius of one kilometer searched for Team 7's location in the Death Forest.

Even though the person hasn't been found yet, Yagyu knows the current situation of Class 7.

They must have encountered Orochimaru disguised as a Grass Ninja yesterday, and Sasuke Uchiha must have had the Heavenly Curse Seal planted on his neck as well.

Naruto, too, was affected by Orochimaru's Five Elements Seal and was unconscious along with Sasuke Uchiha.

Currently, Sakura is the only one awake in Class 7.

This is also why the shadow clones are in such a hurry.

Because of the first exam, Kabuto didn't have a chance to show off his acting skills, which made Yagyu forget about the few underlings.

Just then, Yagyu suddenly remembered that after Orochimaru planted the cursed seal on Sasuke Uchiha, he not only reunited with Anko Mitarashi in the Forest of Death, but also ordered the Sound Ninja trio to kill Sasuke before leaving. In reality, this was to activate the power of Sasuke's cursed seal and make Sasuke addicted to the power he had given him.

However, because the Sound Ninja trio was so loyal and proactive, they found Team 7 before Sasuke Uchiha even woke up.

With both main attackers unconscious, Sakura is left to face the Sound Ninja trio alone.

In the original story, it was during this battle that Sakura underwent her first transformation, cutting off her long hair and taking the first step towards becoming "Sakura-san".

Transformation is a good thing, but that's for Sakura in the original work.

Sakura doesn't need any transformation right now.

Sakura, who grew up with the three of them, has long since transformed and is now a very qualified, even excellent, support ninja.

If she hadn't lacked chakra when she was young, Yagyu would have taught her water-style ninjutsu long ago.

Because Sakura's chakra nature is the same as Yagyu's before graduation, it is one of the four natures: Yin, Yang, Water, and Earth.

After graduation, Yagyu didn't teach Sakura ninjutsu. Instead, he let her continue to build a solid foundation in sensory perception and medical skills, leaving a deep impression on Kakashi Hatake. After Team 7 was temporarily disbanded, she was recommended to Tsunade by Kakashi Hatake, just like in the original story.

Therefore, Sakura doesn't have much fighting power right now either.

Before she gets beaten up by the Sound Ninja trio, Yagyu needs to find her first.

His wings are not something anyone can easily break!

With the three shadow clones searching at full speed, they quickly located Sakura's position.

However, as soon as the shadow clone dissipated and the memories returned, a cold glint flashed in Yagyu's eyes. He said to Hinata and Shino Aburame, "Sakura has run into some trouble. I'll go over there first. You two hurry up and catch up."

After he finished speaking, Liu Sheng's figure vanished into thin air, leaving only a fleeting afterimage that was barely visible to the naked eye as he swiftly swept across the treetops in the forest.

In the blink of an eye, Yagyu disappeared from Aburame Shino and Hinata's sight.

Upon seeing this, Shino Aburame's pupils, hidden behind her sunglasses, contracted slightly.

Is this Yagyu's true speed?

He even hid his teleportation technique so well!
