Teacher Yamada cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention.
"The rules of the match are simple."
He picked up a handful of small stones from the ground and weighed them in his hand.
"In a moment, I'll throw ten stones into the air."
"What you need to do is hit them with shuriken before they land."
"Whoever hits the most wins."

Naruto's gaze sharpened slightly as he looked at the tomoe in Sasuke's eyes.
So this was... the Uchiha Clan's Kekkei Genkai?
Previously, after Uchiha Itachi's death, Sasuke had been so overwhelmed by grief that he finally awakened the Sharingan. However, it only had one tomoe, and its development was still very limited.

Against moving targets, the Sharingan's dynamic vision indeed offered a tremendous advantage.
"Are you ready?" Teacher Yamada asked.
"Any time." Sasuke's voice brimmed with confidence.
"Then..."
Teacher Yamada suddenly swung his arm up!
"Begin!"
Whoosh!
