Chapter 981

The dense jungle had already blocked the sunlight, and now, as time passed, the last trace of sunlight disappeared from the horizon, replaced by the cold moonlight gradually spilling over the earth.

But the slaughter in the Forest of Death would not stop because of this; on the contrary, some creatures that only appeared at night joined the hunt.

"Haha, you're quite a fighter." Neji Hyuga used his Byakugan to firmly lock onto Jiliang Miye, who was using the ability of her summoning beast "Shadow Stealth" to jump to various positions from time to time, attempting to find his blind spot. Among his peers, Neji had never felt such a threat from anyone other than Lee and Lin Cheng.

I heard that this Moon Ninja Village was a newly established ninja village. Sure enough, my knowledge is still a bit too shallow.

Neji's fists clenched, making a creaking sound. He had no time to be distracted to stop Lee, who might go berserk at any moment.

At this moment, he already understood that even if they eventually defeated the Moon Ninja squad, their team would have at most two people left to advance. Lee, having used "that," absolutely could not continue to hold on.

I really didn't expect that before the first night of the second exam had even fully descended, his own team, Team 3, which prided itself on being the strongest Genin squad in the Leaf, had ended up like this.

"You're not bad either. Are you wary of my blades? Forgot to introduce them; they were crafted by that lord herself. You know who I'm talking about." The twin blades in Jiliang Miye's hands spun flexibly, and the purple patterns on them, along with the tattoos appearing on her skin, were breathing in unison.

A certain inhuman aura became increasingly intense.

What kind of bizarre power is this? In the Byakugan, the opponent's chakra seemed to have been infected with purple.

That kind of violence and instability made Neji's eyes ache. Moreover, in his field of vision, the flat-chested loli from the Moon Ninja named Qiangong Yinlili had an aura even thicker than Jiliang Miye's. If this situation were allowed to develop, the first person to be out would likely be Tenten.

"Lee, get a little serious!" There was no other way. He originally didn't want the team members to expose so much strength before the third exam, but he didn't expect to encounter such an unexpected, powerful enemy here.

"Since Neji said so, then..." Lee's eyes lit up. He did a few backflips to distance himself from Harumura Rio. Under her puzzled gaze, he took off the weighted sandbags on his hands and feet.

"Boom!"

Anyone who saw the sky-filling dust kicked up couldn't help but think: are these really sandbags?

Harumura Rio also didn't expect that the next moment, she would feel a foreign object intrude into her domain.

"So fast!" She hurriedly added seals. The space around her rearranged, and the unseen foreign object finally stopped advancing, being forced out by her bit by bit. At this moment, she also saw clearly that the foreign object was indeed Lee, who had taken off his weights.

"Yaahhh!?"

The purple flames all over the enraged Qiangong Yinlili had condensed into substance, and even her figure began to change. If one ignored the constantly burning appearance, she was almost the size of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl now. Of course, the giant hammer in her hand was still disproportionately large.
