The outcome is already decided.
Haruma lowered her eyes and spoke softly.
Seeing Rock Lee unleash another burst of energy on the field, disregarding the limits of his physical endurance.
He forcibly opened Five Gates of the Eight Gates Released Formation and used the forbidden technique ' Reverse Lotus ' on Gaara.
pity...
In the end, just like in the original story, they were unable to defeat the enemy.
Risking everything for a single qualifying match...
He had many opportunities to give up, but he persisted.
Haruma admired his ninja spirit, but couldn't understand his actions.
Despite losing consciousness, Rock Lee remained upright on the stage, striking his signature attacking pose.
Might Guy stood guard to the side, a few tears welling up in his eyes.
Naruto then jumped down from the stands and shouted something at the arriving medical-nin.
"Let's go, there's nothing left to see."
Haruma got up and walked towards the door without any expression.
The members of the Gold Medal Collection Team silently withdrew their shocked gazes and followed behind Haruma.
Zabuza will stay behind and wait for the qualifiers to end.
Despite losing the game,
But Rock Lee's unwavering spirit taught all the genin in the stands a Genin.
That night, at the Uchiha Clan headquarters.
Zabuza retrieved a list of official match participants.
Six people from Konoha, five from Konoha, and three from Sand Ninja Kirigakure advanced through the preliminary rounds.
There are fourteen main contestants, divided into seven groups for the competition.
"Wow!"
" Sasuke, your opponent is that brat Naruto!"
"You two are truly destined to meet."
Suigetsu cried out in an exaggerated expression.
Sasuke looked at the main tournament roster in his hand and frowned slightly.
It's not that I think the enemy is troublesome...
On the contrary
Sasuke felt his opponents were too weak, and he didn't have a chance to train.
Kimimaro's opponent is that little brat who plays in the sand.
"Looks like that kid's luck has run out."
Then Suigetsu saw her own name on the screen, and upon closer inspection, her face filled with displeasure.
Bai and Karin were refilling tea for the group at that moment.
After glancing at the white banner at the back of the list, he said softly to Suigetsu, "I look forward to your guidance in the main competition."
Suigetsu shook her head and complained, "Why are there internal matches in the main competition?"
" Zabuza's luck is just too bad!"
The roster for the main tournament is determined by drawing lots from the Jonin each team, or by drawing lots from the players.
Zabuza looked at the Suigetsu of Suigetsu and said coldly, "You're lucky you're in the same group as the boss in the civil war."
Suigetsu glanced cautiously at Haruma above her, and involuntarily shuddered as she recalled the electrotherapy she had received during the preliminary round that afternoon.
Haruma took the list handed to him by Kimimaro, glanced at it casually, and discovered that his opponent in the main tournament was Temari from Sunagakure.
Anyway, it was just a prelude to the main show, so Haruma didn't take it seriously.
With a month to prepare before the main competition, Haruma also has her own plans and arrangements.
The next day, early in the morning.
Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Might Guy, and Hinata arrived at the gate of the Uchiha Clan.
When Zabuza heard the knocking and opened the gate to the mansion, he was also slightly surprised to see the strange group of people in front of him.
"Good morning, Uncle Zabuza."
Naruto, acting all familiar, Teuchi and greeted him.
Zabuza glanced at the group of people in front of him and asked in confusion, "What's going on here?"
"Disturb."
Kakashi explained their purpose with a slightly apologetic tone, " Hinata has come to Deva Path."
"As for Might Guy, he has something he'd like to ask of Haruma Jun."
" Naruto... he's also here to see Haruma."
Hearing this, Zabuza roughly guessed their purpose. "At this hour, he's still sleeping."
You shouldn't see him before noon.
"Feel sorry."
Might Guy bowed to Zabuza and pleaded, "Please allow me to wait here; I have something very important to ask him."
"It'll have to wait until noon, what a hassle!"
Naruto jumped out anxiously and said, "How about I go wake Haruma up? Rock Lee can't wait that long!"
As he spoke, Naruto lifted his foot, ready to go inside.
"When!"
Kakashi punched Naruto on the head, pulling Naruto back.
"Sorry, this kid doesn't really know the rules."
Zabuza and did not pursue the matter.
After all, Zabuza had traveled with Naruto through the Land of Waves, had some understanding of Naruto's character.
"No need to wait outside the door, you can wait in the side hall."
Zabuza speaking, he led the group to the side hall where guests were received.
Meanwhile, Kimimaro, Sasuke, Chojuro, Haku, and the others were having breakfast in a side hall.
Of all the people who have the habit of sleeping in late, only Haruma is the one.
They usually get up early to complete their daily training tasks.
Naruto, who was almost knocked unconscious by Kakashi-sensei's punch, jumped out again full of energy as soon as he saw Sasuke!
Naruto pointed at Sasuke and shouted confidently, "I will definitely defeat you in this Chunin Ninja Exams!"
"Idiot."
Sasuke glanced at Naruto expressionlessly, then continued eating his breakfast.
You bastard!
An enraged Naruto was about to confront the attacker when a sharp bone blade blocked his path.
"Could you please be a little quieter?"
The adults were still sleeping, and Kimimaro wasn't going to indulge Naruto's ideas.
Two beads of cold sweat slid down his forehead. Kimimaro's indifferent face and Naruto his stiff head.
Kakashi's expression was solemn; if it weren't for Might Guy, he wouldn't have wanted to come to this dangerous place.
"You guys are really noisy so early in the morning."
A Haruma came from outside the door.
Before going to sleep, he habitually used the Mayfly covering the camp. On Haruma, he had already woken up when Kakashi and the others arrived.
I guessed a few people would come, but I didn't expect them to come so early.
But I can accept sacrificing some early bedtime for my own plans.
With droopy eyelids, Haruma took the breakfast handed to her by Kimimaro and plopped down in the head seat.
Upon seeing the main character arrive, Hinata was the first to step forward and weakly speak:
"Thank you so much for saving me yesterday."
Having learned from Naruto yesterday that she was Hinata was healed by Haruma, she rushed over early this morning.
As for Hinata's teacher, Kurenai Yuhi, she only accompanied Hinata because she was worried about Hinata alone.
Kakashi, Guy, and Naruto were just master and student who met by chance on the road.
Seeing Hinata blushing shyly, Haruma waved her hand dismissively. "It's nothing, no need to thank me."
Healing Hinata wasn't just about healing her wounds.
Yang Release heal injuries, Yin Release imprint.
Yesterday, the Yin Release Chakra mark was also Haruma on Hinata's heart.
The mark is harmless; it's just that the Flying Thunder God Mark method changed after the Six Paths of Haruma.
More discreet and more convenient.
The printing time is also shorter.
After Hinata finished speaking,
Unable to contain himself, Might Guy said to Haruma voice, "Please take a look at my disciple!"
"Let's see if there's any hope for Rock Lee!"
As he spoke, Might Guy bowed deeply to Haruma at a perfect 90-degree angle.
Please!!!
