Konoha All-Star Team

As the examinees entered Examination Room Two, the match-up list appeared on the screen. The first Chunin Ninja Exams was between Sai and Sasuke.

Naruto looked at the enormous examination hall and the numerous seats filling it, exclaimed "Wow!", scratched the back of his head, and shouted in utter astonishment:

"Wow, this exam hall is huge! This is our first time taking an exam here, it's amazing! And so many people are here to watch? Are they all here to cheer me on?"

The second examination room was a circular one, exactly the same as the one in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations. The circular room was surrounded by raised seats, offering a panoramic view of the entire room.

However, because Konoha was under martial law, there were no villagers watching from the high platform of the examination hall. Instead, a large group of Konoha Ninja, approximately 50,000 Elite Jonin, dressed in ordinary clothes, sat around the platform, watching the students enter and cheering them on.

"Go Konoha! Long live Konoha! Konoha's ninjas are the strongest! Konoha's ninjas are the best! Konoha is strong and awesome!"

The loud cheers startled the candidates below the stage, who all looked quite surprised.

Especially the Genin from the Hidden Sand Village, several of them were stunned and dumbfounded, looking completely bewildered by the loud cheers:

"How terrifying is Konoha! These ordinary villagers all look incredibly powerful. Is this the true strength of Konoha?"

Gaara watched the villagers cheering and jumping for joy, secretly marveling at their performance. He thought to himself, with a look of astonishment:

"How can these ordinary villagers all have such strong Chakra? How is this possible? Konoha seems really terrifying. How did they manage to do it?"

Temari and Kankuro were also there, shrinking back and looking at Gaara, muttering inwardly in great panic:

"The Konoha Crush Plan, it feels like they're courting death. How could the Fourth Hokage Kazuma- sensei come up with such a crazy plan? Aren't they just walking into the line of fire for Konoha?"

Temari and Kankuro then exchanged a panicked glance, looking at each other blankly, before humming in agreement, indicating, "Don't act rashly yet, wait for the Fourth Kazekage's instructions."

Kimimaro of Otogakure, along with Kabuto Yakushi and the Sound Four, felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing the loud cheers. They all sensed the strength of these Konoha and secretly thought to themselves:

"Lord Orochimaru, you must succeed, or we'll be killed!"

Even Kabuto Yakushi, seeing such a frantic call, couldn't help but tremble and mutter in astonishment:

"Since Danzo and Hiruzen Sarutobi died, what exactly happened to Konoha? How come there are so many Elite Jonin? All those villagers are ninja in disguise. Lord Orochimaru, you must be very careful!"

Kabuto Yakushi was Sensor Ninja and a medical ninja, so he could keenly sense that these Konoha were all Elite Jonin.

Furthermore, many ninjas possessed a green life energy within them, seemingly the cells of the First Hokage, and some were even Quasi-Kage Level powerhouses. Therefore, Kabuto Yakushi grew increasingly terrified; they were like lambs to the slaughter.

Kimimaro looked at Kabuto Yakushi, who was sweating profusely, and hummed in response, offering words of comfort:

"Lord Orochimaru is the strongest person in this world. He will definitely succeed. I have unconditional faith in Lord Orochimaru."

As Izumo Kamizuki saw the list of participants for the first round of competition appear, he immediately pulled out a megaphone and shouted:

"The first match, Uchiha Sasuke versus Sai, the exam begins,"

Sasuke looked at the surprised Sai opposite him, realizing this was his first exam, then put his hands on his chest, walked straight to the center of the exam hall, and shouted arrogantly:

"Sai, your path to advancement ends here. You've met this genius in your very first match. This is your misfortune. Prepare for your defeat!"

Sai looked at the arrogant Sasuke, gritted his teeth, and with a serious expression, frowned and shouted:

"Sasuke, even if I lose to you, I will not give up easily. Giving my all is my ninja way."

Seeing Sai's resolve, Sashin smiled slightly and shouted happily:

"Sai, you're amazing! You'll definitely become a great ninja!"

Naruto and Nawaki, looking at Sai's resolute expression, both expressed their approval and shouted out:

"Sai! Sai! Sai beats Uchiha Sasuke! Uchiha Sasuke is beaten by Sai! Yay!"

Karin and a group of girls, upon hearing Naruto and Nawaki leaking oil onto Sasuke, couldn't hold back any longer and roared angrily:

"You two idiots, what nonsense are you spouting? Shut your mouths, you two disgusting fools, believe me or not, I'll elbow you to death."

In an instant, Naruto and Nawaki became the targets of the scathing insults. These vile curses startled Naruto, and they both sat down on the ground, panting, looking at each Nawaki in dismay.

Nawaki looked at Naruto, his face full of embarrassment, and frowned as he muttered:

"Nephew, are these girls blind? They're actually cursing people for Sasuke's sake! I'm Nawaki- sama! These disgusting women, ahh... ahh... I'm going crazy!"

Naruto, seeing the frantic Nawaki, immediately picked his nose and spoke with great dissatisfaction:

"I don't know what's going on, these female ninjas are like they're in heat, they can't move their legs when they see Sasuke,"

Just then, another cheer erupted from the crowd on the high platform:

"Assistant Hokage is here! Long live Assistant Hokage! Also, Minister Shouhon Yihan, Captain Hayakumo Sōma Zaojian, Minister Senju Taoyuan, and Captain Kumo-ma are all here, along Yamato Minister Yamato. They've all come! They've all returned!"

Some of the Konoha Ninja, seeing the six people appear on the high platform, shouted out:

"It seems the Hokage isn't here, but with the Assistant Hokage here, all the major club leaders of Konoha have returned, even the Mad Demon is back! This is absolutely amazing!"

Kakashi, watching the jubilant ninjas, waved and shouted with a smile, "Long live Konoha! Konoha is mighty! Let's all watch the match first!"

Shouhon Yihan, Hayakumo Sōma, Senju Taoyuan, Yamato, and Kumo-ma. The last person was Uchiha Kun. The seven of them appeared directly on the platform, which made many Konoha Ninja realize that "our Konoha's top team, the six peak combatants, are all ready. Everyone is about to fight!"
