It's almost March now, and the time for the newly Genin to assemble has officially arrived.

In a large classroom at the Ninja Academy, all the graduates gathered. The Guiding Jonin to enter one by one and address the students, who filed out with expressions of anticipation, excitement, or trepidation.

The rooftops, training grounds, and open areas on the hillsides of Konoha all became meeting places for everyone.

The next day, it was almost noon, and the sun was shining brightly.

In Konoha's Training Ground 3, three weathered wooden stakes still stand tall, having seen wave after wave of talented individuals depart, before welcoming a new team in Konoha's sixty-second year.

"Good morning, everyone!" Kakashi greeted everyone calmly, Teuchi.

"You're late!" Naruto shouted angrily. "We've been waiting for three whole hours!"

Kakashi chuckled a little sheepishly, "Uh... well, I happened to run into a lost black cat on the way, and I was a bit delayed taking it home."

"That's a lame excuse..."

After a bit of arguing, Kakashi finally got to the point, quickly taking a large alarm clock out of his backpack and placing it on the wooden post, and then pulling two bells out of his pocket.

Jingle!

"Alright, I'll set it for 12 o'clock." His expression became slightly serious. "There are two bells here... Your task is to snatch them from me before noon."

"Those who fail to grab the bell within the allotted time are not entitled to lunch and are instead tied to a wooden stake to watch me eat."

"..."

"What?! We've been tricked!" Naruto felt his stomach rumbling. "Damn it, they deliberately made us skip breakfast, so that's why."

"I haven't finished speaking," Kakashi suddenly said with a serious face, "Because there are only two bells. The person who doesn't get one will not only go hungry, but will also be eliminated because of the mission failure."

"In other words, one of them definitely has to go back to the Ninja Academy, hehe..."

Glug...

Sakura and Sasuke remained expressionless, but Naruto unconsciously swallowed.

Judging from everyone's graduation grades, if someone really had to be eliminated, it would most likely be me!

"Alright, the rules are that simple." Kakashi regained his composure. "You won't get the bell if you're determined to kill me. Let's get ready to begin."

Sasuke quickly got into the zone and whispered, "Hatake Kakashi, he's one of the strongest Jonin in the village. I went home yesterday to gather information about him. I'll analyze it later..."

"Leave it to me. I can take care of him by myself with my special move!" Naruto suddenly rolled up his sleeves confidently.

"Sorry, the bell is mine now. Sakura, you just wait, I'll definitely give you one so Sasuke can go hungry."

"Are you an idiot?" Sasuke's face darkened instantly, and Sakura was equally speechless.

Without giving them time to continue the discussion, Kakashi immediately announced, "Now... the exercise begins!"

Swish, swish, swish.

The four separated instantly.

Sakura and Sasuke disappeared, while Kakashi picked up a book with one hand and started flipping through it. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted Naruto arrogant not far away and glanced at him with deadpan eyes.

"As a ninja, concealing oneself is a basic skill, so what are you trying to do standing there?"

"Hmph, of course it's a decisive battle! A man's word is his bond!" Naruto crossed his arms and laughed loudly, "I've discovered your fatal weakness, it seems I'm destined to win!"

"Oh?" Kakashi was a little puzzled, but didn't pay much attention.

"A fatal weakness?" Sasuke, hiding among the bushes, frowned, pondering seriously, "Jonin is unlikely to have an obvious weakness. Could it be that Naruto discovered something that my brother hadn't? Or did he not tell me the real information?"

"No, impossible. It's not Naruto's place to say that..."

Sasuke immediately rejected the idea, explaining that he had frequently fought Itachi and knew that three newly graduated Genin could not possibly pose a threat to top- Jonin.

Both he and Sakura were far more skilled than the other graduates. Even though Naruto's academic performance was poor, he still possessed Advanced Jutsu like the Multiple Shadow Clones.

How could Genin of such low caliber be sent back to school to repeat a year? So the two bells were clearly a trap to distract them, but only Naruto foolishly believed it.

"What will he do?" Sasuke and Sakura stared intently at the field.

It's perfect for Naruto to test Kakashi; the two of them can hide in the shadows, observe carefully, and wait for the right opportunity to strike...

"Haaah..."

They didn't have to wait long. Naruto suddenly roared and rushed towards Kakashi. As soon as he got close, he leaped up and threw a straight punch.

Bang!

Kakashi remained calm, using his other hand to easily block Naruto's fist, then tilting his head to dodge the whistling side kick.

At this moment, Naruto surprisingly changed from his reckless behavior at the Ninja Academy; his Taijutsu became quite methodical.

Although it only involved a few moves, the transitions between them were quite smooth, which surprised the people present.

"It wasn't easy, but it wasn't for nothing that I specially guided him." In the Hokage's Office, Shuichi as he looked at the Crystal Ball, which displayed the scene of Team 7's exercise.

Since Naruto's core tactic is Shadow Clone, the higher the quality of his main body, the more powerful his group attacks will be. Therefore, training in Taijutsu is extremely cost-effective for him.

"That's interesting."

Kakashi dodged another hook punch, grabbed Naruto's forearm with one hand, and flung him away. "I admit I underestimated you a bit, but this little trick won't do much good."

Naruto smiled mysteriously, looking confident. After a brief test, he felt even more certain of his killing move.

Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, BOOM!

A dozen or so Naruto lined up on either side, surrounding Kakashi in the middle. One of them immediately shouted, "Let's charge! Everyone, charge!"

Hoo-haaaaa--

All the figures took a step forward in unison, and the next second they all leaped into the air, their target Kakashi at the center of the encirclement.

"Take this..."

Each Naruto simultaneously forms the [Tiger] hand seal, completing the Transformation Technique at the highest point, BOOM!

A dozen or so naked blonde girls with twin ponytails appeared out of thin air, each with ample breasts and hips, legs spread wide, and pounced on Kakashi in a wildly arrogant manner.

"Naruto Uzumaki's Ultimate Technique: Harem Descent from Heaven!"

"What?!" Kakashi's arms trembled violently, his eyes wide with fear.

Sasuke and Sakura were halfway through Hand Seals when their chakra flow suddenly stalled, becoming completely chaotic. The Ninjutsu they were preparing to unleash completely failed. "That idiot..."

"As expected, there's an opening!" Several Naruto, seeing Kakashi's expression, were overjoyed. "Let's seize this opportunity and take him down!"

Thump thump thump--

The naked blonde girls unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks, piling up on Kakashi like a small mountain, instantly engulfing him completely.

Shuichi, watching the game through the Crystal Ball, was completely speechless.

"My martial arts manual didn't teach Naruto this move!" he thought. "It's such a failure. This transformation is far from perfect. How could it possibly leave the seasoned Kakashi speechless?"

"Her breasts have become quite voluptuous and alluring, but the lack of hair between her legs makes her look like a hermaphrodite. She really suffered from her inexperience..."

Bang!

The beating ended quickly, Naruto laughed triumphantly, "Wasn't my special move amazing? This teacher's been taken care of! Everyone, hurry up and find where the bell is!"

"Hey, where did they go? I only saw a pile of mud..."

Call out...

Suddenly, a ring of Steel Wire burst forth from the ground, completely surrounding all of Naruto, then swiftly retracted, causing all the Shadow Clone to dissipate.

In the end, only Naruto remained, bound up, unable to believe this sudden change.

"A great opportunity!"

As if telepathically connected, Sasuke and Sakura saw Kakashi reveal his true form Earth Clone and immediately acted simultaneously according to plan.

Water Release: Water Bullet Technique!

Whoosh--

Several water spheres flew out of the forest one after another, while Sasuke enhanced his body with Lightning Release, using this as cover to rush towards Kakashi at high speed.

Along the way, he threw Shuriken with great force, each aimed at a vital spot...

Shuichi smiled as he watched Kakashi easily defeat the three rookies. Even though Sasuke's foundation and strength far surpassed those of an average Chunin, he was still far from being a seasoned ninja—one cannot undergo transformation without seeing blood.

"Lord Hokage!"

As he leisurely processed documents in his office, a ninja from the Intelligence Department rushed in, saying, "The Land of Wind has sent us an entry application; they are preparing to send an envoy to visit the Land of Fire."

According to the information we've received, Sunagakure intends to communicate with Konoha under the guise of discussing the Chunin Ninja Exams. How should we respond?

"Oh? The Chunin Ninja Exams?" Shuichi eyebrow.

He was originally considering whether to hold Chunin Ninja Exams the participation of multiple countries. After all, the enhanced version of the Konoha 12 had just been formed, and in addition to giving them experience, it would also be a way to show off Konoha's strength.

However, Sunagakure had been a runner-up in the previous two attempts, and the so-called allies had hardly interacted for almost ten years. Even when they did, it was all behind the scenes. Therefore, Shuichi felt that the other party would basically not agree.

Now that Sunagakure has brought it up on its own initiative, one wonders what kind of conspiracy or scheme is behind it.

"I agree. Send out the order as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

The practice of using birds to deliver intelligence only existed before the original Shippuden. Nowadays, Sunagakure doesn't want to be Konoha's subordinate, and the two countries still need to rely on envoys for communication.
