Butchery

"They really have us under surveillance..."

After leaving the place, he did not hurry to look for his next prey but instead began to stroll through the forest.

From time to time, his sharp senses made him perceive that someone was watching him in some way.

At first, he used his sensory jutsu to investigate, but finding nothing, he quickly realized that it was probably the people of Kumogakure using some kind of jutsu similar to the 'Telescope Jutsu' to monitor the entire forest.

Understanding this quickly, he acted as if he hadn't noticed and went on with his business.

"The requirements to pass this test, besides surviving, only ask that you have two badges, but surely, many will try to obtain even more."

To be precise, stealing badges served as an excuse to eliminate the geniuses of other villages.

Compared to the first test, the environment and rules of this second test were the best hunting ground.

However, although he knew this, Gen did not plan to launch himself like a Peregrine Falcon to hunt ninjas from other villages.

If he encountered them, he would not hesitate to eliminate them, but if not, he wouldn't go looking for them either.

Swoosh

The hairy trees and vegetation were a natural camouflage. As he wandered through the area, suddenly, a shadow shot out from the top of a tree and lunged like lightning toward his neck.

However, having foreseen it, Gen abruptly stopped and took a step back, perfectly dodging the black shadow.

After missing its attack, the shadow fell to the ground not far away, revealing its true identity: it was a black snake.

This snake was more than a meter long and very thin, as thin as a finger.

When it opened its mouth and revealed its fangs, a liquid dripped from them, corroding the ground instantly and leaving behind small, steaming holes. That made it clear how lethal its venom was.

"A ninja snake...?" Gen looked at it with interest.

Now he understood why the examiner had specifically warned them to be careful with ninja beasts before the test began.

With the speed this snake had just demonstrated, let alone a Genin, even a Chūnin might not be able to dodge it.

And with the toxicity of that venom visible to the naked eye, being bitten meant certain death.

"Hiss!..."

The snake hissed, and instead of retreating after landing, it coiled its body and raised its head, its cold, completely black eyes fixed on Gen.

After flicking its tongue several times, the snake fully revealed its venomous fangs and, like a spring, launched itself from the ground with explosive speed, shooting like a black lightning bolt straight at Gen.

However, in the face of the snake's new attack, Gen dodged calmly, tilting his body. At the same time, a kunai appeared in his hand, and the moment the snake was about to pass by, a flash appeared.

Thump

The black snake fell to the ground, but this time split in two. Although it was still moving, its fate was already sealed.

Even though he had to find his own food during these ten days, Gen obviously had no interest in eating this venomous snake, so he simply turned around and left.

Even though it was only the first day of the second test of the exam, battles and killings were already breaking out throughout the forest.

…

'Water Gun Technique'

With his hand taking the shape of a gun, a drop of water formed at the tip of his index finger, which flew at an impressive speed, piercing the head of a Sunagakure ninja who tried to dodge but obviously failed.

"Even though we are both part of the Five Great Villages, the difference in quality between us is very evident." With a cruel smile, Hanyue looked at the Sand ninja he had just killed.

In front of him, the fallen ninja's numbered badge rolled into his hand, after which he set off to search for his next prey.

…

'Earth Release: Earth Mausoleum Dumpling'

A massive chunk of rock was generated from the ground and launched with great force.

Boom

With a thunderous impact, the earth trembled as it fell. At the spot where the rock landed, the ground not only sank, but a dark reddish liquid began to appear at the edges.

"The ninjas from small villages, even if they are lucky enough to reach the second test, only face an even worse fate."

A ninja wearing the Iwagakure forehead protector approached the giant rock while murmuring. Then, with impressive strength, he lifted the rock effortlessly.

Beneath the stone lay a completely crushed corpse—a ninja from a lesser village.

From his headband, it was clear that this teenager with terrifying physical strength was a ninja from the Rock.

He wore the traditional red clothing of his village and had spiky brown hair like a hedgehog, giving him a dangerous air.

His name was Ken, and he was the leader of the Iwagakure ninja group participating in the Chūnin exam.

After picking up the badge from the mangled corpse, Ken turned around with an emotionless expression and continued his slaughter.

…

Ten thin chakra threads, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, connected to a massive tiger-shaped beast, which, with each leap, left deep footprints in the ground. Moreover, as it opened its mouth, a dense shower of poisonous needles shot out.

"Ahhh..!"

The Kirigakure ninja fighting against the tiger was unable to dodge and was pierced all over his body by the venomous needles. Under the invasion of the poison, he let out a heart-wrenching scream, and in no time, his visible skin turned a purplish-red hue before losing all signs of life.

The Sunagakure ninja controlling the puppet approached with a cold smile and took the badge from the corpse.

…

Boom

With impressive speed, his body lunged forward, and with immense force accumulated in his arm, he raised his wrist and struck violently at the chest of the Konoha ninja who had attacked him, sending him flying.

Under the devastating impact, the Konoha ninja became a cannonball, crashing through several trees before landing heavily on the ground, showing no signs of life.

"Hmph, even though he wasn't that guy from the Uchiha clan, taking down a Konoha ninja isn't bad at all..."

Speaking strangely while taking dance-like steps, Killer B approached the corpse, took the badge, and without bothering to be cautious, continued walking arrogantly through the forest.
