Chapter 15 Grudge Game

"Understood!" Naruto crossed his arms and had high morale.

"Whatever you do." Gaara said coldly, "Rather than that, let's talk about the content of this life-threatening exam!"

To Gaara, the Third Hokage's tirade was nothing more than bullshit.

He only understood one thing, that killing was welcome, reasonable and legal.

And this is what he likes most.

"Then, as the referee, I, Moonlight Hayate, will explain next."

A ninja with a sickly face instantly appeared in the center of the field and saluted respectfully to the Third Hokage.

The third generation nodded in greeting.

Moonlight Gale stood up and faced everyone, saying in a deep voice:

"Before the third exam officially begins, there is one more thing that everyone needs to complete first."

"Because there are too many people left, we have to hold a pre-selection before the third official exam begins. Only those who successfully advance can move forward."

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd became noisy again.

"What, it's really too much trouble." Nara Shikamaru complained.

"I'm so hungry" Akimichi Choji.

On the other side, Uchiha Sasuke showed a look that was indeed the case.

As Jiraiya-sensei said, there will be another battle next.

It seems that the choice to take a serious rest and regain energy is the right one.

"I don't quite understand. We have obviously passed through the Death Forest, why can't we advance together?" Sakura raised her hand and asked.

"As Lord Hokage said just now, there will be many distinguished guests coming to watch the third game. The competition between more than 20 people is too long and drawn-out.

"You must understand that the guests' time is very precious. Only the most elite ninjas can show on the biggest stage!"

"Okay, if you are currently feeling unwell, please bring it up now. Because the preliminaries are about to begin!"

Do you want to start immediately?

Then those who have just completed the second game don't even have time to rest.

The crowd was in commotion again, and those who passed through Inuzuka Kiba and others showed happy expressions.

"By the way, from now on it will be individual battles. You don't need to worry about your group teammates anymore. You can decide whether to continue participating by yourself," Moonlight Hayate introduced.

Mitarai Anko stared closely at Sasuke's expression.

Although it was already known that Kakashi helped him complete the evil-sealing seal, no one knew better than her what kind of extreme state his body and mind were in after being inoculated with the seal.

Even with the suppression of the evil seal, the recipient will be weak for a long time.

"I give up!"

Following the sound, a ninja wearing glasses raised his right hand in the crowd.

"Konoha, Kabuto Yakushi." Moonlight Hayate flipped through the files and nodded, "You can quit."

Under the gaze of everyone with different expressions, Kabuto Yakushi bowed his head and walked out of the hall.

A miniature of war, a stage for display?

Kabuto thought about the Third Hokage's words and felt funny in his heart.

I'm afraid that the real shadow of war has already been cast, and when the time comes, it will quickly cover this seemingly eternal peace.

Goodbye, just save this fun until the end.

The lenses of Yakushi Kabuto's glasses were glowing as he left this small area.

"The qualifiers adopt a 1v1 battle mode, without any rules, until one party dies, falls, or surrenders. If you don't want to be killed, just surrender quickly.

"The ten winners will go straight to the third exam."

"The next thing that controls your destiny is..." Following the order, the mezzanine on the wall of the hall slowly opened, revealing a black electronic bulletin board.

"Before each battle, two names will be randomly displayed on the bulletin board, and the chosen person will be the two parties who will participate in the duel."

"Then, let's reveal the contestant for the first battle immediately!" Moonlight Gale suddenly raised his voice.

At the same time, the names of each player began to flash rapidly on both sides of the electronic screen. Everyone held their breath, and the screen froze, and two names suddenly appeared:

Uzumaki Naruto

VS

Kankuro
-

"Tch, it's exactly what I wanted!" Seeing this result, Naruto clenched his fists tightly.

"Boring, you actually picked such a weak guy." Kankuro said disdainfully.

The two entered the stage and faced each other.

"What a pity I didn't beat you properly that time!" Kankuro said.

"Stop talking nonsense, this is what I should say!" Naruto said angrily.

Seeing this tense atmosphere, everyone in the stands couldn't help but wonder, could these two people have fought against each other in the Forest of Death?

Sakura knew the reason very well. Looking at the tense situation in the venue, she couldn't help but recall the scene half a month ago.

At that time, Team 7 had just returned from the Land of Waves, and they were doing daily tasks such as walking the dog and weeding.

However, Naruto always makes things messy.

He also always made provocations to Sasuke-kun who was kindly helping him, saying stupid things like "It's all your fault for stealing the show every time."

"If you don't want to owe me any favors, just become stronger than me." Sasuke said coldly, turning to leave.

"Sasuke-kun, don't be acquainted with him! How about the two of us go together to strengthen teamwork, okay?" Sakura said coquettishly to Sasuke.

"The same goes for you and Naruto."

"If you have time to bother me, why not practice more techniques. To be honest, your strength is worse than Naruto's."

Sasuke said coldly.

At that time, Sasuke only wanted to become stronger. However, spending his time on meaningless things every day made him feel angry and anxious.

At that time, these two words were like two huge rocks that suppressed Sakura hard.

Recalling this, Sakura suddenly realized that Sasuke seemed to have become much gentler after returning from the forest of death.

Whether it was the day of the visit or the small talk just now, Sasuke was more responsive to Naruto and I's kindness, instead of always feeling like he wanted to push us away like before.

Could it be that, after Orochimaru's life and death test, he finally understood the bond of love and friendship between us in Team 7?

Sakura looked in the direction of Sasuke, her face full of love.

"Hey! Do you want to fight or not?"

Inuzuka Kiba shouted impatiently. Although the two people in the center of the field spoke loudly, neither of them made the first move.

You must also be worried about what happened at that time, Naruto.

Sakura thought to herself.

Thinking back to that day, after being scolded by Sasuke, Sakura walked down the street in despair, hearing only the commotion in front of her.

When he looked up, he saw that it was Naruto and Konohamaru, the three brats, talking about some ninja game.

Sakura was extremely depressed, staring at Naruto and thinking to herself: Am I really worse than this childish ghost?

"Boss, who is this eldest sister?"

Konohamaru asked.

What a rude kid.

On the other side, Naruto looked shy.

No, you are so shy!
