"You don't move first, I'll escort you to Nara Shikaku's side. As long as you pass, Shin and I will be safe," Kaoru said seriously.
"Okay... Well," Hina nodded, hearing Kaoru say this, and obediently buried her head in Kaoru's chest.
And at this moment, the owl that Deidara and Kurotsuchi were riding on had already flown to Kaoru's back.
"I'll destroy the path you're advancing on, let's see how you run, hmm!" Deidara snorted coldly, and a dense mass of small spiders suddenly appeared in his hands.
"Go!" Deidara waved his hands, and scattered all the small spiders in his hands. The target of these small spiders wasn't Kaoru, but the tree stumps he was standing on.
"Bang bang bang!" Explosions rang out one after another, and the tree stumps that Kaoru was standing on broke one after another.
Almost as soon as Kaoru's front foot left a tree stump, Deidara's back foot would detonate the tree stump.
"Boom!" One of the spider bombs exploded, enveloping Kaoru's figure in it.
"He should have fallen to the ground now, right?" Deidara thought happily.
But after a moment, Kaoru's figure holding Hina rushed out of the smoke, and continued to leap forward. However, there was a faint yellowish-brown smoke drifting out of this smoke.
"Damn it, how is this kid so fast?" Deidara frowned, not noticing the yellowish-brown smoke. He then turned his head to look at Kurotsuchi, "Use your bloodline limit to trap him!"
"No problem," Kurotsuchi nodded, and then made hand seals, "Lava Release, Quicklime Congealing Technique!"
After speaking, Kurotsuchi opened her mouth, and suddenly spat out gray cement, attacking Kaoru and Hina.
"Hmm?" Facing the flying cement, Kaoru exerted force on the tree stump with his right foot, and his body moved violently, dodging the splashing cement.
"Hey hey, Kurotsuchi! What's going on, he dodged it so easily!" Deidara shouted at Kurotsuchi when he saw this.
"Don't be so flustered, it's not over yet," Kurotsuchi chuckled, and made hand seals again, "Water Release, Water Trumpet!"
Kurotsuchi spat out a water flow shockwave, spreading out in the shape of a trumpet, hitting the previous cement.
Suddenly, the cement that hadn't dried yet was enlarged by this Water Release, and solidified in a short period of time, so that all the nearby genin were solidified in the cement.
"Damn it, what is this thing!"
"I can't move at all..." The genin shouted in frustration.
And although Kaoru barely dodged the previous Quicklime Congealing Technique, because the Water Release caused it to spread, his ankle was still contaminated by the splashing cement, and his entire foot was firmly stuck on the tree stump, and he couldn't move at all.
"Caught you!" Kurotsuchi smiled slightly.
"Junior sister, you did a beautiful job this time, very artistic," Deidara praised, and then controlled the owl to fly to Kaoru's side.
"How about it, you..." Deidara was about to mock him, but he noticed that Kaoru's face didn't have a trace of expression, and was very rigid.
"Poof!" In the next second, Kaoru and Hina both turned into a section of wood.
"Bastard, it's the Body Replacement Technique! When!" Deidara stamped his feet on the owl's back in anger.
"Could it be..." He suddenly recalled himself using the bomb spider to detonate the tree stump, and Kaoru emerging from the smoke.
"That's right, it should have been at that time!" Deidara shouted angrily after clearing up the reason.
"They're over there!" Kurotsuchi pointed to the edge of the exam venue. Kaoru had taken this opportunity to quickly leave the exam venue and come to Nara Shikaku's side.
"Damn it, it's too far away, I can't catch them!" Deidara said angrily. His attacks on Kaoru three times and two times had no effect at all.
"Alright," In the end, Kaoru holding Hina came to the tree stump closest to Nara Shikaku.
"Now you go and hand in the paper first, I'll go and take a look at Shin's situation," Kaoru instructed Hina.
Hina nodded, fell from Kaoru's arms, and jumped to Nara Shikaku's side to hand in the paper.
And when Hina came to Nara Shikaku's side, several genin had already handed in the paper. Their positions were all closest to Nara Shikaku, and they were considered to be a group of people who were lucky.
Kaoru, while sending Hina to her destination, was preparing to turn back and find Shin's whereabouts, but found that Shin was already stepping on a tree stump, confronting Deidara.
At this time, he and Deidara were looking at each other, the exam rules stipulated that they could not harm each other, otherwise they would be eliminated, and Shin and Deidara had both hidden their test papers very tightly, and neither of them dared to act rashly.
"You Hidden Stone Village ninja, I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" Shin said to Deidara coldly.
"Big brother, are you going to attack?" Kurotsuchi asked Deidara.
"Of course, this guy is the second most annoying person in Konoha..." Deidara said hatefully, "In the same way, you first trap him, and then I..."
"Really? Are you sure?" Hōzuki Mangetsu's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Deidara's words. Then Hōzuki Mangetsu also appeared on the tree stump behind Deidara, holding a cloth sword in both hands, looking at them with a smile.
Although Hōzuki Mangetsu had a relaxed expression, Deidara could see from his eyes that this guy was ready to attack at any time.
"Hmph, two against two, I'm not afraid!" Deidara said unhappily, but then his eyes glanced, and he saw that Kaoru had also returned again.
At this time, Kaoru saw the four-person confrontation in the venue, and his gaze immediately focused on Hōzuki Mangetsu.
"That guy, it looks like he should be Hōzuki Mangetsu, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. The swords on his back also look a little familiar..." Kaoru thought, and then: "Sharingan! Battle Stance!"
Suddenly, Hōzuki Mangetsu's level appeared in front of Kaoru.
"LV9, the same level as Deidara, a bit interesting..." Kaoru thought inwardly.
"Damn it, this guy has returned again, it's troublesome in this way..." Deidara saw Kaoru, and frowned. He was at a disadvantage in the 1V1 against Kaoru, and now it was even more hopeless to win if the war started.
"I'll settle the score with you later, hmm!" After thinking for a while, Deidara immediately admitted defeat, and the owl he was riding on made a turn, seeming to be leaving here.
"Ha? You want to run away just like that?" Hōzuki Mangetsu shouted strangely, and his figure was about to move.
