"The plan... is it the Eye of the Moon Plan?" Kaoru thought. But Uchiha Obito was just a pawn of the real Uchiha Madara, and Uchiha Madara was a pawn of Kaguya Otsutsuki. It was karma.
"Okay, Uchiha Madara, I agree to spy on the Leaf Village for you," Kaoru nodded. "I hope we have a good partnership."
"Our partnership will be pleasant," Uchiha Obito smiled and asked Kaoru, "By the way, what are your chakra natures?"
"Fire and water," Kaoru replied. He had water nature besides fire, but he hadn't learned any water jutsus, so he never used it.
"Is that so? In that case..." Uchiha Obito took out two scrolls from his cloak and threw them to Kaoru.
"What are these?" Kaoru caught the scrolls and asked.
"Some fire and water jutsus. They might not be useful to you, but I'll give them to you as a gift," Uchiha Obito said.
"Is that so? Thanks," Kaoru looked at the scrolls. It was good. Using Hero Ninjutsu consumed his eye power. He didn't know many jutsus.
Besides what Kurenai Yuhi taught him and the jutsus on the first scroll he got, he didn't have any.
Now he had these two scrolls. Since Uchiha Obito gave them to him, the jutsus should be good.
At that moment, they heard voices approaching. It sounded like more than one person.
"Kaoru, where are you?" Shin's voice called out.
"Brother Kuro!" Hozuki Mangetsu was also looking for him.
"Looks like they're here for us," Kaoru smiled. "This will be our secret."
"Of course," Uchiha Obito nodded.
Soon, Shin and Hozuki Mangetsu found Kaoru and Uchiha Obito.
"Kaoru, I'm glad you're okay," Shin said, relieved that he was safe.
"Who's this?" Shin saw Uchiha Obito.
"Kuro, I didn't expect you to be with a Leaf Village Genin and not fighting," Hozuki Mangetsu said, confused.
When Shin and Hozuki Mangetsu were fighting, Kaoru's S-Rank Hero Ninjutsu interrupted them. They stopped fighting and started looking for their teammates.
"There was that terrible thing that happened. I don't want to continue the Chunin Exams," Uchiha Obito said.
At that moment, a voice came from the sky.
"Hey, you four!" The voice was indifferent.
An Anbu ninja with a fox mask landed in front of Kaoru and the others. It was Kakashi Hatake.
"Lord Hokage has ordered the second Chunin Exam to be stopped. Come with me. I'll take you out of the Forest of Death," Kakashi said.
"Okay!" The four Genin nodded and ran towards the edge of the Forest of Death.
They saw Leaf Village ninjas everywhere, busy with the rescue. Some were using Water Style to put out the fires, and others were looking for the Genin in the Forest of Death.
Kakashi was surprised. The sword was shocking. It only hit the edge of the Forest of Death, but it destroyed about a quarter of it.
That move was too powerful.
Kaoru was also surprised. He didn't expect the S-Rank Hero Ninjutsu to be so powerful. It was the first time he used it.
Soon, Kaoru and the other three Genin were taken to a clearing outside the Forest of Death.
The clearing was filled with Genin who escaped from the Forest of Death. They were nervous and talking about what happened.
There were Leaf Village proctors, Jōnin, and Jōnin from other countries. The Third Hokage and Danzo were in the center, showing how serious the situation was.
The Third Hokage wore a hat with the kanji for "fire." He was old, but his eyes were sharp, and his face showed authority and worry.
Danzo looked at the rescued Genin, looking for the Root ninjas he sent. When he saw Kaoru, he was surprised and confused.
"Kaoru, Shin, I'm glad you're okay," Mirai was already outside the Forest of Death. She ran to them, happy to see them safe.
Uchiha Obito and Hozuki Mangetsu went to see their Hidden Mist Village Jōnin.
Kurenai Yuhi, standing among the Jōnin, was relieved to see that Team 8 was safe.
More and more Genin came out of the Forest of Death, some dead. The scene was tragic.
After twenty more minutes, the rescue was ending.
"Lord Hokage, the rescue is over. We've searched every place in the Forest of Death," Kakashi said, kneeling in front of the Third Hokage.
"What's the result?" the Third Hokage asked.
"There were 75 Genin in the Forest of Death. 35 are dead, and 8 are missing!" Kakashi replied.
"Was it caused by the giant sword from the sky?" the Third Hokage asked.
"No," Kakashi shook his head. "The 35 dead Genin were killed by other Genin in the scroll battle. The 8 missing Genin... were probably hit by the giant sword. The sword was too powerful, so there were no bodies left."
"Is that so..." the Third Hokage thought. The disaster only took 8 lives. It was lighter than he thought.
"Lord Third Hokage, one of our Cloud Village Genin is missing," Darui, the Cloud Village Jōnin, said to the Third Hokage. Only one Genin from the Cloud Village came out of the Forest of Death.
"I didn't expect an accident to happen in the Leaf Village, the strongest village," Darui said sarcastically.
"This is a headache..." The Third Hokage rubbed his temples to clear his head.
"The Leaf Village will investigate this. The Cloud Village ninja should be patient," Danzō interrupted.
"This was unexpected. No one thought this would happen. Besides, the Genin signed consent forms when they joined the second Chunin Exam. Even if your Cloud Village Genin died in the Forest of Death, you can't blame the Leaf Village!"
"You!" Darui looked at Danzō angrily, but he couldn't do anything. Except for the Sand Village, which was allied with the Leaf Village, the Genin from the other three great nations came out of the Forest of Death safely. He was angry.
