This must be today's dream, but why am I in this awful place in my dream?
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Sasuke have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
……
In the audience seats outside the dream.
At this moment, a chorus of astonished exclamations arose.
"W-What's going on?!"
Naruto jumped up from his seat, pointed at the giant screen in front of him, and shouted, "How come Sasuke is in the forest?!"
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +100!]
On the other side, Sakura's eyes widened as she pointed incredulously at the scene on the screen: "Huh? I... I'm there too!!"
Ino, sitting on the other side, was immediately displeased when she saw Sasuke and Sakura appear together in the forest.
She jumped up from her seat, angrily shouting, "Damn it! Why is Sasuke dating someone with a broad forehead like you in the forest?! That's so unfair!"
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Yamanaka Ino have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
Upon hearing this, Sakura proudly raised her chin and gave Ino a provocative smile: "Hmph, that's because Sasuke and I are in the same class! Ino-boo, you can't be envious!"
"you!"
Ino was so angry she gritted her teeth, but she couldn't refute it. She could only glare at the screen hatefully, as if she wanted to replace Sakura on the screen with her eyes.
Of those present, only Kakashi remained relatively calm and had a vague idea of what was going on.
He stared intently at the screen, muttering to himself, "It seems... the Chunin Exams have already begun in the dream world."
"The Chunin Exams?!"
Sakura and Ino were taken aback at first, then exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Kakashi nodded slightly, pointing to the boundless forest on the screen: "Hmm. If I'm not mistaken, this place should be Training Ground 44, also known as the 'Forest of Death.' The location for the second round of the Chunin Exams should be here."
"The Forest of Death?!"
Sakura and Ino's expressions both changed slightly.
As Naruto listened to their conversation, something seemed increasingly wrong. He pointed at the screen, then at himself, and asked anxiously, "The Chunin Exams? The Forest of Death? Then... then where am I? Where am I? Could it be... could it be that I've already been eliminated?!"
The thought of possibly being eliminated early in such an important exam made Naruto feel a pang of anxiety.
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
Upon hearing this, Sakura couldn't help but roll her eyes and said with a playful expression, "Hmph, you, Naruto, might be eliminated, but that Naruto is unlikely to be eliminated!"
Ino nodded in agreement, echoing, "Exactly!"
After watching the dream version of Naruto for a while, Sakura and Ino have become devoted fans of the "Dream Naruto," filled with blind faith in his strength.
of course.
This kind of admiration is just a normal younger sister's admiration for her older brother, who is similar to a big star on the screen.
After all, they can't see it.
"Woooooooo..."
Listening to the two girls' merciless criticism, Naruto felt like he was being brutally attacked.
He pouted and sighed, "...Sakura-chan, your words were so hurtful, waaaah..."
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
There's another chapter coming up soon, I'll correct a typo.
Chapter 81 Huh? So soon we're meeting the parents?
on the screen.
Sasuke was unaware of the laughter and commotion in the audience.
Just as Sasuke was about to reach out and pat Sakura to wake her up and get some answers, a clanging sound of metal suddenly came from deep within the forest, accompanied by the rustling of the trees and the roars of wild beasts...
Oops!
Sakura suddenly woke up, her pretty face turning pale. She jumped up and looked around warily: "Did you hear that? There's fighting over there... Oh no! It's the direction Naruto just went to get water! Is Naruto fighting with someone?!"
"Naruto is here too?"
Sasuke was even more puzzled.
He was just wondering if this was some kind of special mission scenario when Sakura told him that Naruto was there too.
Is this a group task for Class 7?
Where is Kakashi-sensei?
Or……
A series of questions flashed through Sasuke's mind, but he quickly suppressed his confusion.
But now is clearly not a good time to get to the bottom of things.
If Naruto really encounters an enemy, then the situation will be urgent.
He immediately said to Sakura, "Don't think too much about it, let's go and take a look!"
"Ok!"
Sakura didn't have time to think about the reason. She nodded and exchanged a glance with Sasuke. The two of them then took off running in the direction from which the sound came.
This primeval forest is exceptionally dense, with ancient trees having intertwined roots, vines hanging down everywhere, and a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground that rustles underfoot.
Sunlight struggles to penetrate the dense canopy of trees, resulting in extremely dim lighting and poor visibility in the forest. One could easily lose their way or bump into an obstacle if they are not careful.
Fortunately, the sounds of fighting didn't come from too far away.
Sasuke and Sakura darted through the forest, using their keen senses and agile movements as ninjas to avoid obstacles one by one.
They arrived at the scene shortly afterward.
However, when they pushed aside the last clump of bushes blocking their way and saw what was in front of them, they were both slightly stunned.
The intense battle scene that was expected did not occur.
The sounds of fighting had completely stopped; clearly, the battle was over.
In the dimly lit forest clearing, Naruto stood there unharmed.
He was neatly dressed, his face was not flushed and he was not out of breath. His orange coat and headband were even clean and spotless, as if he had never been in any battle.
Not far from his feet, two figures lay sprawled out, both unconscious.
The two were dressed in matching dark green ninja outfits, with the character "草" (grass) embroidered on their headbands.
He is undoubtedly a genin from Kusagakure.
Not far from the two men, a huge brown bear lay sprawled on its back with its limbs pointing skyward.
Such a huge bear, along with two enemy ninjas, were all lying scattered and broken in front of Naruto!
Sasuke's pupils constricted slightly upon seeing this.
Judging from the situation, the brief fight just now was obviously a piece of cake for "Dream Naruto," who ended the battle in an instant by himself.
"Naruto!" Sakura was the first to come to her senses and was relieved to find Naruto standing there unharmed.
She hurried to meet her, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise and joy, "Thank goodness, I'm so glad you're alright!"
Hearing the noise, Naruto turned around.
Upon seeing Sasuke and Sakura, he scratched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly, "Haha, sorry to have worried you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto's sunny smile appeared on the large screen in the dream space.
At that moment, the eyes of the two girls in the audience almost sparkled with excitement.
“So handsome…”
Ino clasped her hands together, gazing at Naruto's cheerful smile with adoration, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Dream Naruto is so strong and handsome!"
"Mmm!" Sakura nodded frantically beside her.
Seeing the two girls' infatuated expressions as they fawned over their idol, Naruto's lips twitched, and he turned his head away sourly, feeling a pang of jealousy.
He was initially quite proud of his powerful self in the dream, but now he's starting to feel annoyed.
These two girls are infuriating; they completely disregard him.
The more she admired Naruto in her dreams, the more she despised him.
Girls are so superficial!
Hmph, he's obviously very strong and handsome too, okay?!
Suddenly, a figure popped into his mind...
Well, it seems that we can't generalize.
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
……
on the screen.
Sasuke looked at Naruto, who was handling the situation with ease, and his lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
Although I have witnessed the extraordinary strength of "Dream Naruto" many times these days.
However, witnessing the enemy being dealt with so effortlessly still left him feeling somewhat...uncomfortable.
This Naruto is completely different from the loud and arrogant loser he remembered.
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Sasuke have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
Sakura patted her chest, let out a long sigh of relief, and smiled broadly: "That's great, Naruto, I'm so glad you're safe and sound!"
She had just run all the way here, and there was still some sweat on her forehead.
Naruto nodded gently: "I'm sorry to have worried you, Sakura."
