"What he means is that there are people who have natural talent and can achieve things more easily, and others who must work much harder to obtain the same result. Like Captain America" Midoriya explainer, deeply moved by Lee's words, since it is too similar to his experience as Quirkless and the hard work he went through to obtain One for All. "Is he like me? He also had to work much harder than others like me?"
"And also to the fact that the young Uchiha was considered the best in his class and possibly a natural talent, while Lee for his part had to work harder than him to be where he is." All Might said, much to the surprise of the audience who analyzed his words. All Might is surprised to notice the similarities that this young man has with young Midoriya.
"Though that's not entirely correct." Shoto said. "Even talented people must practice and work hard too."
"Well, it's something we all have to do if we want to be better every day and reach higher and higher." Yaoyorozu said. "Even if you are natural, you need to make an effort and practice." The rest of the audience including the villains nod in agreement with her words.
[Sasuke threw a punch at him, but Lee stepped aside, dodging it]
Lee: The fact is that your Sharingan is the worst combination for my extreme Taijutsu. [Sasuke kicked him, but Lee dodged it again.] This is what I mean.
Sasuke: I have to stop him. [Lee had kicked him, throwing him into the air, then crouched down and placed his hands on the ground, disappearing and reappearing beneath Sasuke before his surprised gaze.]
The audience tenses expectantly at what they will see.
"Oh the emo is in trouble!" Toga mocked.
Sasuke: Dancing Leaf Shadow...
Lee: Good eye, now I'll prove my point to you. [The bandages on Lee's arms were beginning to come loose from his arms] That hard work defeats natural talent!
The audience is surprised to see that Lee is removing his bandages, Midoriya, for his part, identifies with Lee again since something about it reminds him of himself once again.
Sasuke: What's his next move?
Lee: You're done. [A shuriken had headed towards them, pinning Lee's blindfold to the wall as Sakura and Naruto watched in surprise.] This is bad.
The audience is surprised once again to witness the abrupt end of the fight.
"Ehh!?" Several people exclaimed, surprised at what just happened.
"What the hell?!" Bakugo exclaimed. "Who broke up the fight!?"
"And just when it was getting good!" Shigaraki complained as he was actually starting to enjoy the fight.
Turtle: Enough, Lee.
Everyone is surprised again to see that the person who interrupted the fight between Lee and Sasuke is a turtle.
"What the hell!?" Kaminari exclaimed in surprise.
"Is that turtle... talking!?" Katsuma exclaimed in surprise.
"So it seems." Koda said surprised. "From the size I would say it is a Galapagos tortoise, although I have never seen one of that color."
"Although in our world there are cases of animals with Quirks that can speak, I did not expect that in that world they could also do so." Asui said.
"We've seen other animals from that world, even some surprising ones like the fox that's sealed in Naruto, the Fourth Hokage's giant toad, and Kakashi's ninja dogs, but that turtle is the first to speak." Midoriya said as he wrote this down in his notebook.
"Although on the other hand, why did he break up the fight?" Kodai asked, to which the rest murmur in agreement since they cannot understand why the turtle would do that.
"And not only that, but he also seems to know Lee. Could it be…?" Nezu thought, surprised that the animals of that world not only speak, but he wonders if they are also like him.
Sasuke: Now what?
Sakura: Sasuke! [Sakura started running towards Sasuke, catching him before his head hit the ground, while Lee was kneeling in front of the turtle.]
Naruto: [Surprised.] He completely defeated Sasuke. Something happened while he was unconscious. What did he do to him?
"Nothing, he just gave the emo the beating of his life!" Mineta exclaimed gleefully.
"You're enjoying this too much, ribbit." Asui frowned.
Sakura: Are you okay, Sasuke? [Looks worried at Sasuke] He's very shocked, he couldn't even be liked.
"Yes, shocked." Mineta mocked. "The emo is shocked." Jiro hits him with his Earphone Jack.
"For now maybe " Jiro said annoyed with Mineta. "As if YOU could defeat Lee." She said narrowing her eyes at Mineta.
Lee: Have you been watching me?
Turtle: Of course, that last technique is prohibited and you know it.
"Well this seems to confirm it." Midoriya said while writing in his notebook. "The turtle not only knows Lee but also scolds him. Is he really…?"
"So it seems Deku-kun." Uraraka said.
"Hey? What are you talking about?" Ashido asked blankly.
"You'll see later." Felicity said.
"Guy hasn't changed." Kushina thought amused. "He is waiting to make his entrance and surprise them. I already want to see how much he has grown since the last time I saw him."
"Although why would that technique be prohibited?" Eri asked without understanding that.
"Ah probably because he revealed it ahead of time." Mirio said. "Lee has just shown a rival one of his techniques, and from what we have seen of ninjas they try to avoid showing their techniques to their rivals to prevent them from using them against them."
"Oh yeah, I guess that makes sense." Komori said.
"Or maybe that technique is incredibly dangerous." Shoto said causing everyone to look at him.
"Todoroki, while we appreciate your honesty, there are things that are better left unsaid." Iida said, looking at his friend.
"I see, I apologize." Shoto replied.
"We really have a lot to teach him." Natsuo said to which his sister nodded in agreement.
"You're not wrong though, that technique is indeed dangerous and Lee should use it only as a last resort." Felicity thought.
Naruto: [Surprised] He's talking to a turtle and he's responding to it?
"Well, in our world it wouldn't be such a strange thing." Pixie-Bob said. "Although in that world it seems to be more unusual."
Lee: Sorry, I didn't mean to.
Lee apologized.
Naruto: Now he's apologizing to the turtle. Wait a minute! [Naruto realized] Could it be his sensei?
The audience is shocked to hear this.
"Wait really!?" Katsuma exclaimed. "That turtle is really…?"
"So the turtle is the Guy that Lee admires so much?" Asked Midoriya who suspected it.
"I guess so, ribbit." Asui said.
"Looks like we have another Kame-Sennin." Sero said.
"I just hope it's not another pervert." Ashido mumbled, disgusted by the idea. "We have enough with what we already have."
"Hey!" Mineta complained.
"Well, not now but when the time comes to meet Jiraiya."Felicity thought amused as she imagined it.
[Lee was scared when he saw that the turtle looked at him seriously]
Lee: I wasn't planning on using a forbidden Jutsu. It's just that... I was in the middle of a fight and... I mean you will understand or you don't...
Naruto: I was right, he really is your sensei Hey, you guys! [He goes to his friends.]
Sakura: What is it Naruto?
Naruto: That weird thing his talking to is a turtle, right?
The audience is shocked to hear what Naruto just said.
"It's not a cat. So obviously it's a turtle!" Bakugo exclaimed.
"I really want to know what education they gave him!" Iida exclaimed making a robotic cut. "How is it possible that he can't identify something so simple!?"
"Seriously, what did he think it was?" Mahoro asked. "Even I know it's a turtle."
Sakura: [Annoyed] Obviously. What did you think it was?
Naruto: And that means that a turtle can also be a sensei?
Sakura: And you want me to know that it's normal?
"Well, a turtle may or may not be a clueless sensei." Kaminari said confused.
"Although Lee's attitude seems to indicate that it's a yes." Tokoyami said.
Turtle: You are a disgrace. Do you think you're going to get away with a bunch of pathetic excuses? A Shinobi never reveals his technique unless absolutely necessary. It's a basic rule, you should already know that.
"What a strict turtle." Sato said. "He must be at the level of Aizawa sensei."
"You're right, though." Aizawa said seriously. "Lee broke a basic rule and revealed a technique to an opponent. Now Sasuke and his companions know about this and will be able to use it against him in the future."
"Ironic that you say that considering that you guys show us your skills at the sports festival." All for One retorted, smiling at the irony. "But it's better this way. They make things a lot easier for me." He thought.
Lee: Forgive me, sensei.
Sasuke: [Annoyed] How could I lose to that weirdo?
Turtle: Are you prepared for punishment for your actions?
Lee: I... Yes sir.
"What punishment will he give him?" Toga said interested.
"I just hope they aren't too hard on him." Kodai said worried.
"You lost emo, accept it." Mineta said happily.
Turtle: Very well, please appear Guy sensei. [A man had appeared on top of the turtle.]
Might Guy: Hello, what's up? What's everyone saying?! Is life treating you well? [Team Seven look at him in horror.]
The audience is surprised to see Might Guy for the first time and laughs at the looks of Team 7.
"W…what!?" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"That guy…" Kota said in surprise.
"His eyebrows are even bigger!" Makoto exclaimed in surprise.
"And it's even weirder!" Mahoro exclaimed.
"Is he Lee's sensei? Uraraka said surprised.
"So it seems." Midoriya said surprised, especially since it strangely reminds him of All Might.
"Nothing really has changed all this time. Guy is still the same." Kushina thought amused.
Naruto: He has even bigger eyebrows! They almost have a life of their own!
Guy: Hi, Lee.
Sakura: He's even weirder.
Naruto: So that's where Lee gets his inspiration from. Same haircut and same spanker eyebrows.
"He really looks a lot like Lee." Mirio said surprised.
"Could he be Lee's father?" Shoto asked surprised.
"Maybe?" Yaoyorozu said, surprised when she noticed the similarity between the two.
"Not really." Felicity said. "They are only student and teacher, and Lee admires him so much that he imitates him."
"Wow that reminds me a little of someone." Sero said looking at Midoriya who blushes.
"I'm not that much of a fanboy…" Midoriya tried to defend himself, embarrassed.
"Yes, of course, Deku!" Bakugo exclaimed. "Like you don't have his underwear!" The rest of the audience laughs at this much to Midoriya's embarrassment.
"That didn't need to be said Katchan." Midoriya complained embarrassed.
Rock Lee: [Annoyed] Hey, don't insult Guy sensei. He is one of the greatest men in the world.
Naruto: Oh! Excuse me for not seeing its magnificence, I was watching it crawl to get out from under the turtle.
Lee: He wasn't crawling!
"He definitely admires him a lot." Kuroiro said.
"It really reminds me a lot of someone right now." Asui giggled looking at Midoriya.
"Definitely." Sato said in agreement.
Might Guy: Easy, Lee.
Rock Lee: Yes, sir.
Might Guy: Now as a reprimand. [He punches Lee in the face, much to the surprised looks of team seven.] Little fool.
The audience was in a similar state to see that Guy hit Lee.
"Ahh!" Several people exclaimed in shock.
"So that was his punishment." Fuyumi said surprised.
"Heh… I didn't expect that." Dabi said surprised.
[Guy approached the place where Lee had fallen, crouching, while Lee sat up and looked at his sensei.]
Might Guy: I'm sorry, Lee, but you made me do this.
"It's true that he deserved a punishment but was it really necessary to do that?!" Awase exclaimed.
"Well, as his teacher, he must discipline him as he sees fit." Vlad said, although he feels somewhat uncomfortable. "Although it would be better if he looked for other methods to discipline his students."
"Yeah." Midnight said in agreement with her colleague. "He really shouldn't hit him even if it's to discipline him." The rest of the teachers nod in agreement, since hitting a student is too extreme for them.
Rock Lee: S-Sensei. [Guy had tears streaming down his face.]
Guy: Oh Lee.
Lee: Sensei, I'm sorry. [Crying] Forgive me.
He bowed.
Guy: Well, it's over, we don't have enough words.
Lee: sensei. [Guy and Lee hugged each other while crying]
"This is too weird..." Mahoro said uncomfortable.
"...yeah." Katsuma said.
"They are very normal! No, they are too weird!" Twice exclaimed.
"It's nice that they get along so well, but they really are very strange way of.. expressing." Ashido said.
"Are those two the counterparts of All Might and Midoriya?" Tokoyami commented making the others turn to look at them.
"Now that I think about it, they do look alike." Uraraka said surprised.
"Great just what I needed." Shigaraki said annoyed, while scratching his neck. "As if I didn't have enough with All Might and that annoying brat, without having to deal with this pair too." Toga and Dabi laughs silently when they saw their boss's annoyance.
"It's good to see that Tomura is still determined to destroy the symbol of peace." All for One thought.
[Team 7 looks at them surprised and uncomfortable.]
Sasuke: How could I lose to someone so pathetic.
"HA! Is emo admitting to being more pathetic?! Mineta said smugly.
"As if you could defeat Lee." Ashido said which silenced Mineta.
Guy: Don't worry, it was just a slip.
Lee: Forgive me, sensei.
Naruto: Well, the way they hug each other is very sweet.
Sakura: [Annoyed] Aaah you're kidding, they're both completely crazy.
"The girl is very funny when she is upset." Kodai laughed when he saw Sakura's expression.
"But you're not wrong when you say that those two are very strange and a little crazy." Komori said.
"HEY! And what's the problem with being crazy!? They are happy and have a good relationship!" Toga exclaimed, slightly scaring the rest.
"Naruto's not wrong though. Their relationship is really very nice." Uraraka said. "Almost like Deku and All Might."
"So it seems." Midoriya said surprised. All Might also looks at them surprised.
Guy: You're caught between two stages, you're too big to be a boy, but not too big to be a man.
Lee: You are so good to me, Guy-sensei.
Guy: Well, enough, I want to see you do a hundred laps around the training pitch, show me what you're made of.
The audience was shocked to hear this.
"W…what!?" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"H…hundred laps! Is he serious!" Kaminari exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh yeah. Guy never jokes when he talks about that stuff." Kushina said surprising the audience.
"Another proof that this guy is completely crazy." Bakugo said.
"But what about the exam?!" Iida exclaimed still not forgetting. "Did they forget that they have to register?!"
"Oh, that's true." Kamikiri said. "With all this I had almost forgotten."
"If I remember correctly, they had half an hour left to register." Sero said. "If they hurry up they could still sign up."
Lee: Yes, sir of course!
Guy: Run until sunset, run and suffer, but don't worry. [Guy looked at Lee with a smile] Come on.
Lee: Sure.
"The boy is as crazy as he is." Monoma said.
"Definitely." Tsuburaba said.
"There's a reason they get along so well." Kodai said.
"He also forgot the exam." Iida said, frustrated.
Naruto: Hey wait a minute, we're not done with this. They can't end this just like that.
Sakura: And what about the Chunnin Exams, there's no time for this nonsense.
"Actually Sakura has a valid point there." Tokoyami said. "Did that boy and his sensei forget about the exams?"
"Tch." Iida grumbled. "Thank goodness at least someone remembers."
Guy: Mmm aaah, Right, I forgot about that. Lee you not only disobeyed the rules of a battle, you also distracted yourself from the Chunin Exams. I think that implies a slightly harsher reprimand, don't you think?
Lee: Yes, sir.
Guy: Let's say five hundred laps. How does that sound?
Lee: Understandable, sir.
The audience was horrified to hear Lee's new punishment.
"Now its five hundred!" Kaminari exclaimed. "That's worse than before!"
"But how do you expect him to go around the field five hundred times and sign up for the exams?!" Natsuo exclaimed surprised.
"Is he really that crazy to do that?" Kendo asked in disbelief.
"Well, at least he didn't tell him to do it with his hands." Kushina thought.
Sakura: They're totally crazy.
Naruto: Maybe, but forget about them. What about that talking turtle, Sakura?
"Really that's what you have to say?!" Jiro asked surprised.
Guy: They must be from Kakashi's team. I'm going to keep an eye on them.
Sakura: [Scared] Oh no! He's looking at us!
Guy: Tell me, how is Kakashi-sensei?
Sasuke: Do you know him?
Guy: What if I know Kakashi? Well, people say we'll be arch-enemies forever.
The audience is shocked to hear this.
"So that weird guy is Kakashi's rival?!" Sero asked.
"Really?!" Eri asked surprised.
"Oh yeah." Kushina said. "Ever since he was a Genin he wanted to surpass Kakashi, and then they both had a kind of rivalry between them." This surprised the audience, Shoto for his part feels somewhat uncomfortable since it reminds him in some way of the "rivalry" between his father and All Might and the things his father did for this reason. Seeing this, his siblings hugged him to console him.
"Oh you don't have to worry." Felicity said. "Theirs is a positive rivalry, although sometimes Guy goes a little overboard, it doesn't hurt anyone." Shoto nodded in understanding.
Sakura and Naruto: [Annoyed] Of course not!
Lee: [Annoyed] How dare you?! If Guy Sensei says it, it's because it's true.
"And if your sensei tells you that pigs fly, would you believe it too?!" Bakugo exclaimed in annoyance at the pathetic student.
"That boy…" All Might said looking at him.
Guy: Let it slide. A ninja's actions always speak louder than words.
"Well that's actually good advice." Aizawa said, while Midoriya writes down Guy's words.
"Yes it definitely is." Snipe said.
[Sasuke stared seriously at Guy until he disappeared and appeared behind them, much to the surprise of Team 7.]
The audience was shocked to see this.
"So fast!?" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"It makes sense that he's fast considering how fast Lee is." Shoda said.
"Although their speed is still too surprising." Iida said surprised.
Guy: My record is fifty wins, forty-nine losses, which by the way is one better than his.
Sasuke: What?
Naruto: Really?! How did you beat Kakashi- sensei?
Guy: The fact is that I'm stronger than Kakashi and faster.
"Oh really?" Several audience weren't sure whether to believe that or not.
"That guy can really beat Kakashi?!" Bakugo asked surprised. "He is stronger than him?"
"You will see it later." Felicity said.
Sasuke: His speed is incredible, he's definitely faster than Kakashi. Is he really human?
"Seems so." Tokoyami said.
"He's a pretty weird human, though." Kuroiro said.
Lee: What do you say now? Guy sensei is the best ever.
Guy: I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you. Please look into my eyes and accept my sincere apologies. And while you're at it, appreciate my manly and attractive beauty.
"Oh yeah! "He is incredibly manly!" Kirishima exclaimed.
"Yeah!" Tetsutetsu exclaimed.
"But how are they going to see inside his eyes?" Kaminari asked, confused.
"I don't think he meant that literally." Jiro said. "Although I'm not sure what it really means either."
Sasuke: He claims to be better than Kakashi. Could it be true? I don't think he's making it up. [Sasuke clenched his hand tightly.]
"Well, I don't think I'm making he's up either." Yaoyorozu said thoughtfully. "Guy really looks to be very strong. The fact that Lee is his student and he admires him so much is already an indicator that he must be someone quite strong."
"Although he may be exaggerating a little." Honenuki said a little unsure
"I hope we get to see more of his power level." Midoriya said, eager to learn more about Guy.
Guy: Lee, you should escort these refined young ninjas to the classroom. [Guy threw a Kunai in the direction where the shuriken that was holding Lee's bandage was, releasing it, Lee began to put the bandages back on, but not before Naruto could see Lee's hands.]
Naruto: His hands...
The audience is greatly surprised to see Lee's hands.
"H…his hands!" Uraraka exclaimed, surprised to see them.
"This boy…" All Might said, shocked when he saw the wounds that Lee has on his hands, they remind him of the wounds that young Midoriya has on his hands.
"What the hell! How is it possible that he has so many injuries!?" Komori asked in surprise.
"Probably training." Midoriya said making the audience turn to look at him. "He previously said that he had worked very hard and trained. "They probably are that." Midoriya looks at his own arms, although he cannot see his own wounds (both from training and from his fight with Muscular) Lee's wounds seem too familiar to him. "Is he like me?"
"It's a good theory." Recovery Girl said. "Judging by the looks of some other them, they are old, although there are some that seem recent. So it is likely that they are caused by training."
Bakugo, for his part, feels uncomfortable seeing them, since he thinks that they could also have been caused by bullies who have bullied Lee, in the same way that he bullied Deku and caused him injuries with his Quirk, some of which will leave scars. permanent. Even if Deku has forgiven him for his past abuse, a part of himself will never be able to forgive himself for what he did to his friend.
"Karma sucks." He thought.
Guy: Remember to give your best Lee, Goodbye!
Lee: Sure! [Guy and the turtle disappeared in a burst of smoke.]
Lee: Hey, Sasuke. [He looked at it.] The truth is that I was not totally honest with you. I told you that I wanted to test my skills, I didn't lie, but you are not the person I want to test them with.
The audience is greatly surprised to hear that there is another person Lee wants to fight.
"Huh!" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"Okay, this is getting really interesting." Dabi said interested in this fact.
"Definitely." Said All for One also very interested in this.
"So if he was just using it, is it possible that Lee is actually stronger!?" Kendo exclaimed upon realizing this fact.
"Possibly." Midoriya said. "I already want to see the full extent of his strength."
"You're not the only young Midoriya." All Might said, this young man and his sensei draw his attention powerfully, probably because they remind him a little of young Midoriya and himself.
"And who will be the person Lee really wants to face?" Rin asked interested in this fact.
"No idea, but it will probably be revealed to us later on." Shishida said.
Lee: A while ago while we were fighting I lied to you. I told you I was the best Genin here, but there's another tall ninja, someone from my own team. [An image of Neji appears.]
The audience is shocked by this revelation.
"That boy!? The one who showed curiosity in Sasuke!?" Ashido exclaimed in surprise.
"He's also the boy who looks like Hinata." Hagakure said. "By the way, what is his name?"
"You will know later." Felicity said.
"Is he really that strong?" Midoriya asked, while drawing Neji in his notebook.
"Oh yeah." Felicity said surprising the audience. "But you will see him in action later."
"Now I'm really interested to see his skills." Yaoyorozu said interested, as did several in the audience.
"If he really is that strong, maybe I should keep an eye on him too." All for One thought, interested in this mysterious boy's power and abilities. "This world is truly a wonder. I've seen some really interesting abilities that I wish I could steal. I am sure that the doctor will be able to solve that Chakra problem."
Lee: And I came here to beat him, you were just a practice.
"Yeah, I can understand that, but he really shouldn't say that to his face." Kamikiri said.
"The emo is already furious enough for losing, now he's going to be even angrier." Kaminari said worriedly.
"I really wouldn't want to be in his place, now Sasuke is probably looking to get revenge on him in some way." Awase said scared at the possibility of Sasuke taking revenge on Lee in some way.
"Actually Sasuke is the least of Lee's problems, he just doesn't know it yet." Felicity thought that she knows what will happen in the confrontation against Gaara and how Lee almost had to abandon his career as a Shinobi due to the injuries he suffered in that duel.
"Although this fight will help Sasuke improve." Aizawa said. "He learned that he still has a lot of growing to do and could take some inspiration from Lee to improve." The rest of the audience nods in agreement with this observation.
Lee: But you're already a target and I'm going to crush you. [Sasuke looked at him angrily.] I already told you, consider yourself warned. [He leaves the place.]
Sakura:Sasuke.
Naruto: Mmm, what's wrong? It seems that the Uchiha clan is not as great as everyone thinks.
Sakura: [Annoyed] Naruto!
Sasuke: Shut up, will you? Next time I'll put him on his knees.
Naruto: Yes, of course. Says the one that just got their ass kicked?
"He really shouldn't add fuel to the fire." Natsuo said. "That's just going to make Sasuke angry at him too."
"As if Sasuke didn't already have enough with Lee." Tsuburaba said.
"Not to say that at least Sasuke gave Lee a fight, Naruto was defeated in seconds." Kuroiro mused. "So he should be the least likely person to say that."
"Although on the other hand it would be interesting to see a rematch between Sasuke and Lee." Kamikiri said, to which several nodded in agreement, excited at the prospect of seeing a second round between them.
"Unfortunately that will not happen." Felicity thought.
Sakura: What? Hey, you're saying too much! Better shut up Naruto. [Sasuke looked at him angrily.]
Naruto: Did you see his hands? Did you see them when he took off his bandages? [Sasuke looked at him surprised.] I think Don Brows has been training until he drops day after day after day. Train harder than you, that's all I'm saying.
"That's for sure. With the state his hands are in" Recovery Girl said.
Sakura: Sasuke.
Sasuke: Well, things are starting to get interesting. The Chunin Exams, I can't wait to see what's next.
Naruto: Good.
Sasuke: Let's begin Naruto! Sakura!
Naruto: Yeah! [They head towards the indicated place.]
"Oh yeah!" Tetsutetsu exclaimed. "This is definitely getting more and more interesting!"
"Especially if this fight was a warm-up." Kirishima said.
"Let them start now!" Bakugo exclaimed, impatient to see the chunin exams.
[Scene change, in the hallway of classroom 301 Kakashi meets team 7]
Kakashi: It's good that you came, Sakura, for your sake and for the others. [The three looked at him in confusion.] Now you can formally register for the Chunin exam.
The audience were again shocked to hear these words from Kakashi, while others realize that there may have been another logical trick involved in this.
Sakura: Why? What are you talking about?
Kakashi: You see, only groups of three are allowed to apply to take the exam. That's how they've always been.
Sakura: But sensei, you said that the decision to take the exam was an individual one.
Kakashi: Right, that's what I said.
Sakura: Was it a lie?
"Of course." Iida said. "It was another logical deception. "They should have it figured out."
"At this point this shouldn't surprise us, Kakashi proved to be more complicated than Aizawa-sensei." Sero said.
"Although for what purpose?" Kaminari said confused.
"Wait and see." Nezu said before drinking some tea, thanks to his Quirk he has already found out what Kakashi's real purpose was and he is very impressed with him. "Maybe I should try something like that with the students."
Aizawa was also very impressed by Kakashi and his way of educating his students. "I really have to take notes like this." He smirked.
Kakashi: Something like that. It was an individual decision, but it affects all of you, I didn't tell you before because I didn't want the others to pressure you and at the same time I didn't want you to feel obligated to participate because of any feelings you have for Sasuke or Naruto. I wanted you to come of your own free will.
Sakura: Wait a minute, what if the others had come to the exams and I hadn't?
Kakashi: They would have gone that far. If you hadn't come they wouldn't have let the others sign up, but it doesn't matter anymore everyone is here for the right reasons. Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke. I'm proud of you, I couldn't ask for a better team. [Kakashi stood aside for the three to enter the classroom] Good luck.
The audience nods in understanding Kakashi's intentions.
"So he didn't tell them the truth so they wouldn't pressure Sakura to come in." Yaoyorozu said thoughtfully. "That was certainly a good plan."
"This ensured that the three of them decided to participate in the exam or not of their own free will." Hawks said impressed. "Simply brilliant."
"He really have some amazing students." All Might said as proud as Team 7's Kakashi.
"And he has no shortage of reasons to be proud." Midnight said. "Although they still have a long way to go, all three have made a lot of progress since they started."
Naruto: We won't let you down sensei, believe it!
The audience takes great pride upon hearing Naruto's words.
"Of course!" Katsuma exclaimed excitedly. "Your sensei will be very proud of you!"
"The music is simply spectacular!" Jiro said excitedly while moving to the rhythm of the music.
"Oh yeah!" Ashido said equally excited. "It is a really very heroic topic! I could dance to it all day!"
"We should do it in the next interlude." Uraraka said, to which several of the girls nod in agreement, excited by the plan.
Naruto: Whoa what is this?
Sakura: Oh! We are not alone. [Sakura looked around seeing many ninjas from different villages] Wow, I had no idea they were so… crowded. If looking gloomy is part of the exam, everyone does very well.
The audience is slightly intimidated when they saw the amount that's going to participate in the exam.
"A-ah!" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, there are quite a few people." Awase said scared.
"The vast majority of them look much older than them." Thirteen said surprised. "And they are possibly well trained too."
"As already said, the chunin exams are an important event." Kushina said. "And it's actually unusual for rookies to participate, so it's normal that the vast majority are much older."
"But I thought Kakashi had become a chunin at 6." Kaminari said.
"Well yes, but he was an exceptional case." Kushina explained. "And also at that time the village desperately needed ninjas, as I already told you." This detail intrigues the audience although they refrain from asking since they know it is useless because they will not be given spoilers.
Ino: Sasuke, where have you been? [Ino had hugged Sasuke, wrapping her arms around Sasuke's neck] You have no idea how much I wish you were going to come here. I miss being able to see your attractive seriousness.
"Ugh!" Shigaraki groaned in annoyance. "As if it wasn't enough to deal with one annoying brat, now we have to deal with two!"
"Right I forgot, she's also obsessed with emo." Spinner said looking at Ino.
"And he just ignores her!" Mineta exclaimed jealously. "Why does emo get so much attention from girls and I don't!?"
"Do you really want an answer?" Ashido sighed disappointedly to Mineta who went silent.
Sakura: Hey, bait, get away from him, he's mine!
"Of course the brat was going to say something like that!" Shigaraki exclaimed in annoyance while scratching his neck. All for One, for his part, smiled when he saw Tomura's annoyance.
"It's totally predictable! No, it is not!" Twice exclaimed.
The rest of the league laughs a little at Shigaraki's reaction.
"I really feel a little bad for Sasuke." Shoji said. "That must be really annoying."
"Yeah." Tamaki said, imagining how uncomfortable he would feel to be in a situation like that, especially considering that he bears an extraordinary resemblance to Sasuke.
"Bah! Emo is fine!" Mineta said jealous of the female attention Sasuke receives.
Ino: Miss billboard brow, did they let you come? Do you know that you have more wrinkles on your forehead?
Sakura: Don't mess with my forehead.
"What a couple of girls." Midnight mused. "Using ridiculous nicknames to annoy each other."
"I'm genuinely curious about what happened between them." Nejire said. "They really fight like that over a boy!?"
"Seems to be the case." Ashido said. "As stupid as it may seem, especially considering that Sasuke isn't even remotely interested in either of them."
"Emo is only interested in his revenge." Dabi said, making the rest of the audience uncomfortable as they remembered Sasuke's dark ambition.
Shikamaru: Aaah hey it's you. I knew it was going to be boring, but I didn't think it was going to be so lame.
"I can relate to that guy a little bit." Aizawa said referring to Shikamaru. "It's really pathetic that they fight like that over something so stupid."
"Although that boy looks like he doesn't care about anything." Present Mic said amused. "As if nothing there is worthy of his attention or interest."
"This boy looks interesting." Nezu thought, looking at Shikamaru, he can tell that there is more to him than meets the eye.
Naruto: Who did the three stooges come with?
The audience laughs a little at hearing Naruto's nickname for Team 10.
"This guy…" Mirio laughed.
Shikamaru: I'll tell you something, you filthy boy... No, I don't want to waste my time.
Naruto: Shikamaru Nara, always complaining and never doing anything about it. The laziest in the academy.
The audience is surprised to see the description that Naruto made about Shikamaru, while Midoriya writes it down in his notebook, on the page he has about Shikamaru.
"Sounds to me like he's the type of kid who sleeps in class all the time?" Ectoplasm said.
"The apple really didn't fall far from the tree. Shikamaru is the spitting image of Shikaku, and what Naruto described about him is true, he also inherited his personality." Kushina thought smiling as she watched him.
"Heh, he just reminded me of someone right now." Present Mic said glancing at Aizawa. "What do you think Shota?"
"One way or the other. I don't care." Aizawa huffed.
Naruto: Choji Akimichi, eater I would say. He would eat his own head if he could.
Now that surprised the viewers. Once again Midoriya writes everything down in his notebook.
"Oh really!?" Several people asked in surprise.
"Does that boy really eat that much?!" Kodai asked in surprise.
"There's a reason he's so fat." Bakugo snorted, looking at Choji with disinterest.
"If I were you I wouldn't call him that Bakugo." Felicity said. "Especially considering the abilities of the Akimichi clan."
The audience, for their part, became curious on what Choji's abilities could be and what its relationship with the fact that he eats so much.
Ino: Sorry, but Sasuke is all mine.
Naruto: Ino Yamanaka, she is really annoying and not just because she brings the same thing for Sasuke that Sakura brings.
"What a surprise." Shigaraki said sarcastically. "Yes, even Naruto is fed up with that brat."
"They really are a couple of annoying brats." Spinner said in agreement with his boss, even the rest of the audience agrees with them, since they also find Ino and Sakura's attitude towards Sasuke irritating.
"Seriously, WHAT do they see in him! "Emo is no big deal!" Mineta exclaimed once again, jealous of the attention that Sasuke receives, which he doesn't care about in the slightest.
"No matter how many times we explain it to you, you'll never get it, ribbit." Asui answered very tired at this point.
Kiba: what a surprise. It seems that the whole band is reunited.
Hinata: Aaah hello Naruto.
Naruto: Hinata Hyuga, she's fine. But I don't know why I feel sorry for her and why she gets embarrassed every time I look at her... she does strange things.
"Oh! She is really adorable!" Hagakure exclaimed excitedly upon seeing Hinata again.
"She sure is!" Ashido said excitedly. "I really send all my strength to her and Naruto."
"I really like NaruHina a lot!" La Brava said, also enthusiastic about the couple. "You can tell she is very much in love." She gushed.
On the other hand, Jiro is a little embarrassed when she seeing Hinata since she doesn't like being compared to her, but she can't help but notice her similarities with Hinata.
Naruto: Kiba Inuzuka and his dog Akamaru. Forget what I said about Ino, this guy is the most annoying of all, he feels so important.
"Wow, it seems like this guy can be annoying." Sero said.
"Worse than the brats? I doubt it." Shigaraki said while scratching his neck.
"What a cute little dog he has!" Eri said excitedly upon seeing Akamaru.
"You're right Eri!" Nejire exclaimed. "That little dog is really very adorable!"
"But what is the dog doing with him." Koda wondered about this matter and if Kiba has abilities similar to his.
"I guess we'll see about it later Koji." Midoriya said while writing in his notebook.
Naruto: And this is Shino Aburame, he's kind of weird, period. Something mysterious, but that doesn't mean it's not also quite tiring.
"I honestly don't know what to think of this guy." Kodai said.
"You are not the only one." Yanagi said.
"He really looks a bit strange." Kendo said that he doesn't know what to think of this boy either. "But not weird like Lee or the other characters we saw. Like Naruto said, he's weird but that's it."
"As if the extra was important." Bakugo huffed.
"Bakugo you shouldn't say that. "That boy might be stronger than he looks." Uraraka reprimanded him.
"Yeah!" Toga exclaimed to the surprise of the rest. "Who are you to judge Dyna-idot?!"
"Shut up crazy bitch!" Bakugo responded, annoyed with the villain.
"Well, to a certain extent, it is an extra." Felicity thought. "A shame because he could have had a lot of potential, but he ended up like any other Yamcha."
Shikamaru: You too, huh? Wow everyone is here for this stupidity.
The audience was surprised to see Shikamaru's attitude.
"And what the hell is wrong with this pineapple head?!" Bakugo asked, annoyed with Shikamaru's attitude.
"I could fake at least a little excitement." Komori said.
"How disrespectful!" Iida exclaimed making a robotic cut. "You are disrespecting your classmates and the exams with that attitude!"
"That guy is an idiot!" Tetsutetsu exclaimed, causing a giggle from Felicity and Kushina who knew that Shikamaru was actually very intelligent.
"That is a very unmanly attitude on his part!" Kirishima exclaimed annoyed.
"Acting like this is all a waste of time as if you have something better to do." Rin said surprised by this fact.
"It almost seems like he was forced to take the exam." Tsuburaba said.
"Who knows? Maybe his sensei really made him do it, so his classmates could show up." theorized Kendo, to which several nodded in agreement, finding this credible.
"Ironically Shikamaru was the only one who managed to pass the exam and become chunin." Felicity thought.
Kiba: Yes, the nine rookies, this will be fun at least as long as we are good enough, won't it Sasuke?
Sasuke: [Confident. Behind him Ino looks at Kiba angrily.] Kiba, be careful not to get too confident.
"He is right." Aizawa said. "Overconfidence could end up costing you dearly."
"It is a very common defect. It can be observed among heroes, students and also ninjas apparently." Midnight said.
"Your correct." Recovery Girl said, remembering how many people she had to treat due to her recklessness, which led to them getting several injuries. Especially All Might, Midoriya and Bakugo.
"Those girls are really, really fun." Spinner said with a laugh. "While their attitude towards emo can be annoying, they also create a lot of unintentional comedy."
"It's true! No, it is not!" Twice exclaimed.
Kiba: Wait and we'll get rid of all of you. We have trained like crazy.
Naruto: And what do you think we have done? Sat down and chop onion? You don't know what training is.
Hinata: It doesn't matter Kiba. I'm sure that's not what he meant.
"Well, it's true that Naruto and his group have been training very hard, and their mission in the Land of Waves has helped them grow, but they still shouldn't be overconfident." Mandalay said.
"Not to mention we don't know what the other teams have done during this time." Midnight said. "From what Iruka said, all of them have developed great abilities."
Hinata: Aaah [Naruto looked at her confused, while she looked down blushing.]
Choji: Akamaru looks plumper, juicier.
The audience became uncomfortable hearing Choji's thoughts about Akamaru.
""W…what!?" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"Does he really want to eat the puppy!?" Eri exclaimed, horrified by the idea.
"I really hope that's not true." Nejire said worried about Akamaru.
[Choji started to walk to where Kiba was, but Shino stood in his way.]
Choji: What do you want? What's going on? [Choji looked at the place where Shino was looking, seeing an insect walking on the ground.]
Shino: I thought you hadn't seen it. [Choji looked at him confused] I didn't want you to step on it.
Choji: Why? Do you want to have it for lunch?
The audience were grossed out by this.
"I hope not." Melissa said disgusted by the idea of eating insects. Koda and Present Mic, for their part, feel uncomfortable seeing the insect and Shino's attitude toward it.
"Does this fat kid think everything is food?" Bakugo said surprised by Choji's attitude.
"That boy really is strange." Tokage said looking at Shino.
Kabuto: Hey, you guys [Everyone looked at the place where the voice had come from] Maybe you want to tone down your scandal a little, I mean don't be offended, but you're the nine rookies, right? Fresh out of the academy. If I were you I wouldn't make a fool of myself. Relax. This is not a school camp.
The audience is a little surprised to see Kabuto.
"Well, that guy has a valid point." Yaoyorozu said. "If they make a fuss that will only be negative for them."
"They really should avoid attracting unwanted attention." Melissa said. "As if it wasn't enough for them to be the youngest there, the last thing they need is to attract negative attention."
"Although why did that boy tell them that?" Shinso asked suspiciously.
"Maybe he's just trying to be nice to them. Because they are newbies and from the same village." Uraraka said.
"No. There's something about it that's not right." Aizawa said looking at Kabuto suspiciously, there's something about him that reminds him of Black Widow in a way, but not in a good way.
"You're just being paranoid Shota." Present Mic dismissed him, but Aizawa ignored him, the boy really gave him a very bad feeling.
Ino: And who asked you, who are you?
Kabuto: I am Kabuto Yakuchi. But seriously, look around, you are giving a very bad impression. [They looked around realizing that all the other ninjas were looking at them with seriousness.]
"So that's his name." Midoriya said while writing down in his notebook, he also made a portrait of Kabuto in his notebook.
"Those other ninjas are all really very intimidating." Awase said intimidated.
"Going unnoticed is not a bad idea." Sero said.
"Although it won't be easy." Kendo said. "With the fuss they've already made and the fact that they're rookies, it's not going to be easy."
Kabuto: See those people? They come from the rain village. They are very sensitive… all of them. The exam makes everyone tense. Don't bother them or they may ruin everything.
"That's actually good advice." Hawks said. "Try to go unnoticed and not look for problems, especially in a high-tension situation like that."
"Yes sensei, you are right." Tokoyami said in agreement with his mentor, while Midoriya writes in his notebook.
"Let's hope they follow his advice." Kodai said.
"Because I have a feeling that Naruto is going to do something stupid to upset him" Jiro thought, worried about Naruto and the rest of the rookies.
Kabuto: But I don't blame them, they're rookies, they don't know how all this works. They remind me of myself years ago.
Sakura: You said... your name is Kabuto?
Kabuto: Yes.
Sakura: I mean, isn't this the first time you've taken the exam?
Kabuto: No, it's the seventh.
The audience were surprised to hear that this is Kabuto's seventh time taking the exams.
"Seventh?!" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"The seventh time!?" Midoriya exclaimed in amazement, while writing it down in his notebook.
"Is it that difficult that he failed so many times already?!" Kaminari asked surprised.
"That seems to be the case, ribbit." Asui said surprised.
"I wasn't kidding when I said they're really difficult exams, you know." Kushina said, although on the other hand she feels slightly surprised that Kabuto has failed 6 times.
"Unless he had some purpose to fail." Aizawa thought, looking at Kabuto with suspicion, for some reason this information makes him even more suspicious of him, although he doesn't know his motivations, his senses are on alert.
Kabuto: There are two exams a year, this is my fourth year.
"That's true." Kushina said. "The exams are done once every 6 months, so yes, they are twice a year."
"Oh that's certainly interesting." Midoriya said as he wrote it down in his notebook.
Sakura: Whoa a veteran, by now you must be an expert.
Kabuto: ...Something like that.
Naruto: Hey, could you give us some basic advice?
Shikamaru: An expert who has never passed.
Kabuto: Well, seven is good luck, that's what they say.
"Well, that's one way to be positive about it." Iida said.
Bakugo simply snorted. "An expert that he never once passed. That four eyes is simply a loser."
"You are also not wrong about 7 being a good luck number." Makoto said making the rest of the audience look at her. "In the West at least it is considered a magical and good luck number."
"Oh wow, I didn't know that." Uraraka said.
"In China, on the other hand, the 7 can be both negative and positive." Said Rin. "So, who knows? Maybe this time he finally gets through."
"Not really, but because it was never his intention." Felicity thought.
Shikamaru: I think all the rumors about this exam being very hard are true. Oh! Damn I knew this was going to be boring.
The audience is once again surprised to notice Shikamaru's 'I don't care about anything' attitude.
"Seriously, what's wrong with that boy? He is disrespecting everyone present with his attitude!" Iida exclaimed annoyed while doing a robotic cut.
"He really is Shikaku's son. Even in attitude they are similar." Kushina thought, surprised to notice the similarities between father and son.
Kabuto: Boys, don't give up. Maybe I can help you a little, with my ninja info-card.
The audience is shocked to hear this.
"Info-cards?" Several people asked in surprise.
"But what is that?" Kaminari asked.
"I guess we'll see." Midoriya said as he prepares to write down in his notebook, very interested in whatever Kabuto is going to show the genins.
"Something here is not right. No one offers help to complete strangers just like that. He's obviously looking for something, possibly some kind of favor from the rookies."Aizawa thought, worried about the safety of the rookies and because his suspicions about Kabuto are increasing.
Sakura: Info-cards?
Kabuto: It's hard to explain, but these cards have been encoded with the Chakra of everything I've learned over the past four years. I have over two hundred so I haven't completely wasted my time.
"That is certainly very interesting." Midoriya said while writing in his notebook.
"And dangerous." Nezu said suddenly worried. "The fact that he has collected information on so many people puts him in an advantageous situation if he had to face any of them."
"And it also makes you wonder for what purpose he is collecting this information." Aizawa said worriedly. "I know that for ninjas the information can be vital, but is he doing this for someone else? Why is he collecting information about ninjas who participate in the chunin exams? Something here is really, really wrong."
"Maybe I'll just be like Deku and write down everything about everyone." Bakugo said downplaying it.
Kabuto: They may not look interesting at first glance, in fact they look white. But I don't want anyone to see this. [Kabuto placed his info-card on the ground and placed a finger on it, starting to spin.]
Sakura: What are you doing?
Kabuto: I'm using my Chakra to reveal the secrets. Like this one, for example [Kabuto made a hand seal and a map appeared on the info-card.]
The audience were surprised to see the information revealed by the card.
"Wow!" Eri exclaimed in awe.
"Those cards are really amazing!" Katsuma exclaimed excitedly.
"They really are." All for One said, much to the discomfort of the rest of the audience. "They would be really very useful to us."
"You're right sensei!" Shigaraki said in agreement with his mentor. "We could use them to hide information from the heroes."
"Or we could even put hero information in there, which makes things a lot easier for us." Dabi said, while All for One smiles proudly at the league members, much to the discomfort of the heroes.
"Thank goodness they don't have access to any of that." Hagakure whispered to the others, to which those who heard her nodded in agreement.
"So that's a map of Naruto's world." Midoriya said, as he copies the map into his notebook.
Sakura: Wow, of what map is that?
Kabuto: It shows the geographical division of the candidates who have come to take the exam, which village they come from and how many from each village. Why do you think they all come to the exam together and at the same time?
The audience were confused by Kabuto's words.
"To become Chunins, right?" Kaminari asked.
"Yes, but that might not be the only reason." Nezu said thoughtfully, much to the surprise of the rest of the audience.
"Then there could be another reason to hold the Chunin exams?" Makoto asked.
"An ulterior motive? Is it like a logical deception?" Iida asked.
"Could be" Naomasa said. "Though let's wait and find out."
Kabuto: It's to foster friendship between nations, international brotherhood and all that. And to a certain extent it is true.
Sasuke: But there is another reason.
Kabuto: Yes, the important issue is that they can carefully regulate the number of Shinobi that end up in each village, with which they maintain the balance of power.
Naruto: Oh yes, the balance of power.
Shikamaru: Balance of power? How boring.
The audience, again was shocked to hear the hidden purpose in the chunin exams.
"Actually all of that is true. The chunin exams are actually a replacement for war. A safe space where nations can confront each other and maintain their balance of power, you know." Kushina said to the surprise of the audience.
"Replacement of war? Power balance?" Kaminari was confused.
"It's really confusing." Ashido said.
"Not that much really." Kushina said. "In my world peace is incredibly fragile, and war is a very real threat. Before the first ninja villages were built, wars were commonplace. And even after villages were formed, wars did not completely disappear. So to try to keep peace between nations, chunin exams were formed, instead of each village dealing with it individually. And it also serves to ensure that all the villages are relatively balanced in terms of military power and thus discourage possible conflict between them.
"Well, that explanation really clarified a lot of things." Kodai said, like several in the audience, Midoriya for his part writes everything down in his notebook.
"To think that peace is actually so fragile." All for One said, amused to think that his own world isn't really that different. "With All Might's retirement, society realized how weak they really are. A few pushes in the right direction and everything they have built will crumble."
"That's why I hate society." Shigaraki said annoyed. "Through force they impose a false peace, allowing the waste to live peaceful and happy lives, and those who create the waste protect them, while all those who do not fit into that happy world will simply be ignored and hidden, waste that will be accumulate over time. I really hate that hypocritical society and I want to destroy it more than anything."
"Hey! Society is not like that!" Iida exclaimed annoyed.
"Shut up four eyes!" Toga exclaimed annoyed. "You don't have the slightest idea about anything! You probably haven't had any problems and were able to fit perfectly into society, but there are others who weren't so lucky! Some of us have to spend a lifetime pretending to be someone we're not to have a chance!"
"Not to say that some of us just won't fit in no matter how hard we try." Spinner said equally annoyed. "You will simply be rejected for something you did not choose and cannot change. The world is not so pretty outside your ivory tower.
"It's true! No, it is not!" Twice exclaimed.
"Those are pathetic excuses." Vlad said, convinced that his society is perfect as it is, much to the villains' disgust. The others in the audience on the other hand were not sure what to think anymore, since they first came to the theater with Kiddo, they realized that the world is not always reduced to black and white and they are seeing things from a different perspective. They even wonder if the villains might have valid points about their society.
Kabuto: If the balance is not taken care of, a nation could have more Shinobis than its neighbors and they could be tempted to attack it. So they try to maintain the status quo, it makes sense I guess.
"Well, to a certain extent yes." Present Mic said.
"So that's their balance of power." Natsuo said.
"I definitely hate it." Shigaraki said annoyed, especially because to some extent it reminds him of the society of his world.
"It's good to see Tomura and the rest getting motivation to hate these pesky heroes even more." All for One thought, satisfied.
Sasuke: Do those cards have information about other candidates?
Kabuto: Maybe, do you think of someone in particular?
Sasuke: Could be.
"I think I know who he means." Hagakure said.
"Yes, definitely." Yaoyorozu said. "The only ones who attracted Sasuke's attention are that red-haired boy and Lee."
"I hope we can learn something from them." Midoriya said interestedly, as he prepares to write down any information he can learn.
Kabuto: I can't promise you that the information is complete or perfect, but I think I have at least some of each. And this includes them of course, so who are you talking about? Tell me something you know about them, a description, where they're from, whatever.
Sasuke: They are Gaara from the desert and Rock Lee from the leaf village, they interest me.
Kabuto: This isn't fun until you know their names, it makes everything easier. [Kabuto took out two cards and showed them to the group.] Here they are.
Sasuke: Show them to me.
The audience watched with anticipation, as they are excited to learn any information Kabuto may have about Gaara and Lee.
Naruto: I have no idea what's going on here, but I have to pretend so…
"Why am I not surprised?" Aizawa asked with a twitch in his eye.
"He really still has a lot of growing to do." Midnight said shook her head. "Although he probably will in the future."
Kabuto: The first is Rock Lee. [Lee's statistics appear on the card] It seems that he is about a year older than you, his experience in missions, eleven in level C and twenty in level D, the leader of his team is Guy. In the last twelve months his Taijutsu has improved radically, but his other skills are quite weak. Last year he got a lot of attention as a Genin, but for some reason he didn't participate in the Chunin Exams. This is his first time as a candidate like you.
The audience were quite impressed to hear the information Kabuto has about Lee.
"Well, that's for sure. Lee really has a very good level of Taijutsu. Considering his fight with Sasuke there is no doubt that he is really very good." Rin said.
"And his extraordinary resemblance to Bruce Lee." Ojiro said.
"Although why are his other abilities so weak?" Ashido wondered. "Wouldn't it be better for him to also have Genjutsu or Ninjutsu?"
"That's certainly strange, ribbit." Asui said.
"Maybe he's just not good at it, and decided to focus on Taijutsu instead." Tokoyami guessed, it kind of reminds him of what Hawks said about training his strengths and he wonders if Lee does something similar.
Kabuto: His teammates are Tenten and Neji Hyuga. [We see images of Tenten- the brunette and Neji- long haired boy and then Hinata's face.]
Naruto: Aaah Hyuga.
The audience is surprised to hear Neji's last name.
"Hyuga?" Several people exclaimed in surprise, while Midoriya writes this information in his notebook.
"So that boy is a relative of Hinata's." La Brava asked surprised.
"Yeah." Yaoyorozu said. "That explains their resemblance."
Kabuto: Let's go with Gaara from the desert. [Gaara's information appears on the card.] Mission experience, eight at C level and look at one at B level as a Genin. We don't have much information about this boy. He's a rookie from another land, but there's also this, he survived every mission without a scratch on him.
These words from Kabuto greatly surprise the audience, the fact that Gaara has been on several missions, some of them very dangerous, and has not received even a scratch is something truly surprising.
"He didn't even have a scratch." Shoji said surprised.
"B…but how is that possible!?" Tsuburaba exclaimed in surprise.
"I have no idea." Kodai said surprised. "Possibly he is someone of great ability."
"But a class B mission is similar to what the mission in Land of Waves was. So that means…?" Uraraka didn't finish the sentence.
"That very possibly he faced someone with a power similar to that of Haku or Zabuza and came out unharmed." Ojiro said surprised, the rest of the audience is surprised to realize this fact.
"Oh wow... just.. wow." Kaminari said surprised.
"That boy is definitely not someone I want to face." Mineta said now even more scared. "As if having a disturbing presence wasn't enough on top of that."
On the other hand, even the villains feel slightly intimidated by Gaara, but they also feel interest in him. Toga is attracted to him, especially knowing that Gaara has never been hurt, which increases her interest in him. Dabi thinks he wasn't wrong in judging Gaara as someone he shouldn't provoke.
" It will certainly be interesting watching this boy in action."All for One thought excitedly.
Shikamaru: [Surprised] That guy has done B missions as a Genin, and has he never been hurt?
Naruto: What's up with that boy?
"That's what we were wondering!" Awase exclaimed, to which several nodded in agreement.
[Kabuto took another card and put Chakra on it, showing a map of the participating villages.]
Kabuto: Leaf, Sand, Rain, Grass, Waterfall, Sound. From the looks of it among us, there are candidates with exceptional abilities. Of course, the village hidden among the sound is small became known recently, no one knows anything about them. Those guys are a mystery. [The sound ninjas look at them, Kabuto takes his cards from the ground.] Well there you have it, this year the competition will be very intense.
Hinata: It might seem like it was enough to lose confidence.
The audience becomes tense due to the great challenge that the rookie genins are going to have, they are also interested in what the candidates from the other villages will be like.
"It's definitely going to be a difficult challenge for them." Uraraka said worriedly.
"You said it, ribbit." Asui said.
"Although they should have some confidence." Ashido said. "If not, they won't get anywhere."
"Although on the other hand I am curious about the other ninja villages, especially the sound one." Jiro said interested.
"Yeah." Midoriya said equally interested in the other ninja villages. "I already want to see their skills!"
Ino: What a good time to say those things.
Sakura: So, you really think this year will be rough.
Kabuto: Oh yes, during the four years that I have been here, I have never seen such great potential as this. Yes, we are going to have a great job.
"Very inspiring." Kaminari said sarcastically.
"Now I'm much happier not having to participate." Mineta said while shaking in fear.
"COWARD!" Bakugo yelled, annoyed by the grape boy's cowardice, much to his terror.
[Elsewhere Kakashi remembers Iruka's words about the chunin exams, and Guy intervenes on Iruka's behalf.]
Guy: Yes, he may be right Kakashi. You are putting too much pressure on them. Why the impatience? I retained my team for a year so they could hone their skills and mature. Let them enjoy their youth a little more.
"Well you both have a valid point there." All Might said. "I really don't think it's a good idea for them to do the chunin exams so soon. They should take their time to grow."
"The decision was theirs in the end." Aizawa said in response to the former number one. "They decided to participate freely and voluntarily, and I believe this experience will help them grow and develop as ninjas. Furthermore, they have already learned how hard the life of a ninja can be and it is best that they are prepared if they plan to continue in this type of life."
"But still…" All Might said.
Kakashi: Your concern is touching, are you sure it's not because your boys don't have a chance against mine? [Guy gets upset when he hears this]
"I wouldn't be so sure about that." Sero said. "Especially after seeing Lee and Sasuke's fight, and the fact that he defeated Naruto effortlessly."
"Ha! The emo was brutally humiliated!" Mineta gloated again as he remembered Sasuke's defeat and how humiliated he felt.
"Again, stop talking as if you yourself have any chance against Lee." Asui said annoyed, which silenced Mineta.
"Although it never hurts to see sexy sensei's confidence in his students!" Pixie-Bob cooed with which the audience partially agreed, Mandalay sighs in frustration at her teammate's behavior.
Hiruzen: Calm down please, stop it. The topic of rookie participation is closed, now like the other Genin I can consider your recommendations.
Kakashi: I know what I'm doing, you'll see. [Back to the present Kakashi reflects.] I wish I was as sure as I sounded. I wonder how they'll fare, even the proudest of them must be a little scared.
"Well, that's for sure. I mean with how hard the exams seem to be and all the competition out there, it's no wonder they're nervous." Sato said, to which several nodded in agreement.
"Hopefully everything goes well." Shiozaki said.
[Naruto was trembling before Sakura's worried look.]
Sakura: [Scared] So, we are rookies and most here are older and more experienced than us, it doesn't matter, it's okay to have some fear I can handle it, but it would be a lot easier if I wasn't watching Naruto tremble in front of me. Because... it generally doesn't affect anything. Poor thing, maybe I can cheer him up a little.
The audience is moved to see Sakura's concern for Naruto.
"That girl isn't so bad once you get to know her." Komori said.
"If it weren't for her obsession with Sasuke and the fact that she treated Naruto badly at first, she's actually not that bad." Asui said.
"Well, she's just a child and she still needs to grow and mature." Midnight said. "And once you get to know her you realize that she is actually a very kind young lady, despite her flaws."
"Nobody is perfect." Thirteen said.
The rest of the audience reflects a little on Sakura and how their opinion of her has changed throughout the episodes. While it is true that at first they only saw her as an annoying girl, obsessed with Sasuke and who was rude to Naruto, now that they have been able to see more of her and get to know her a little better, they realize that despite these defects Sakura is actually a kind girl, who wants to improve herself and who cares deeply for her sensei and teammates and even came to care for the people of Land of Waves even though they were complete strangers to her. Even the villains, although they still see Sakura as a nuisance, have softened a little how they feel about her. The only one who hasn't changed his stance towards Sakura is Shigaraki who still sees her as a fool and a nuisance.
Sakura: Hey, don't worry, Naruto, we'll be fine. [Sakura was surprised to see how Naruto squeezed her hands.]
Naruto: Aaaah! [Naruto turned around and then pointed to the ninjas present] My name is Naruto Uzumaki and I'm going to beat all of you, believe it! [Kakashi laughs at Naruto's comment.]
The audience becomes frustrated seeing what Naruto just did.
"Why am I not surprised?" Jiro said.
"You just did something really stupid, ribbit." Asui said.
"He has literally provoked everyone there." Kodai said. "The only thing he needs is to put up a sign asking to be attacked."
"I just hope everything turns out well." Shiozaki said worriedly, as she began to pray.
"His bravery is very manly!" Kirishima exclaimed, "Although I recognize that his recklessness will end up causing problems."
"Well, he got too excited, you know." Kushina said.
Ino: HEY, IS THAT IDIOT INTENDING TO DO TO KILL US!
Sakura: I should have known that he's not smart enough to be scared.
Ino: TELL YOUR BOYFRIEND TO KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT!
Sakura: HE'S NOT MY BOYFRIEND?!
Ino: TRUE, YOU CAN'T EVEN GET THAT!
Sakura: WHAT DID YOU SAY?!
The audience laughs as they see Ino and Sakura's expressions and exchange.
"Those girls…" Spinner said with a laugh. "They really are unintentional comedy."
"They really are." Mirio said also amused. "I really wish sir Nighteye were here. I know he would have had as much fun as we did." Mirio thought sadly. Seeing his friend thoughtful, Tamaki pats him on the back to encourage him.
"That's actually true." Awase said. "Naruto really doesn't know what fear is, he didn't even get scared with Zabuza."
Naruto: Yes! I feel much better now!
[Sasuke smiled as did Kabuto.]
"Well, both Sasuke and Kabuto seem to support his actions." Kamikiri said, to which the rest nod in agreement.
"It was either very brave or very stupid." Kodai said.
"I'll stick with brave." Ashido said.
[On the other hand, the rest of the genins look at them menacingly]
Kankuro: It's the same boy from before, right?
Temari: He squeals like a puppy.
Tenten: How silly.
Neji: He's already lost all his guts.
Lee: He has passion.
Neji: I think you didn't intimidate him as much as you thought, huh Lee?
"The reactions of others are within what was expected." Aizawa said watching them. "Most of them just see him as a loudmouth."
"Lee is not wrong, Naruto has passion!" Katsuma said.
"Let's just hope everything ends well." Shiozaki said worried about Naruto.
Zaku: Did you hear what he said about the village hidden in the sound?
The audience becomes tense because they sense that the sound trio is planning something bad.
"This is going to get ugly, ribbit." Asui said worriedly, as did the rest of the audience.
The villains, for their part, are interested in the sound trio.
Dosu: I heard.
Kin: I would say we teach him good manners.
Dosu: Yes, let's clarify part of the mystery. Let's update the information. Let him know that if he insults a Sound Shinobi, you must suffer the consequences.
"Oh no..." Several people exclaimed worriedly.
"They are going to attack Mr. Kabuto!" Eri exclaimed worried.
"Don't worry Eri. Surely everything will be fine." Mirio said in an attempt to calm her down.
"Yes, surely the exam supervisors will intervene and prevent an incident." Nejire said.
"Speaking of which, where are the exam proctors?" Iida asked.
"They are probably hidden." Uraraka said.
Kiba: Aaah, can you repeat that a little louder? I couldn't hear well.
Shikamaru: Dude, are you trying to make the people of this place hate us or what?
Sakura: Naruto you are an idiot, because you had to say those things you are a clumsy child. [Sakura had held Naruto by the neck and then looked forward nervously] Hello, don't notice, sometimes he says that nonsense, but he's not serious, he says it without thinking, he's special, it's a psychological thing, in fact, he should be in medical treatment. [Sakura let go of Naruto and scolded him] You saw what you did Naruto, you hurt all of their feelings, they think you don't respect them, but that's not true, right, Naruto?
"Those guys are right. Naruto's recklessness could end up affecting them too." Fuyumi said worriedly.
"That girl…" Spinner said looking at Sakura.
"As if Naruto had to respect any of those fools." Shigaraki said annoyed with Sakura's words.
"Tomura, even so, it is not good to provoke a possible rival. That could only be detrimental to him and his teammates." Kurogiri said.
Dosu: Ready.
Zaku: Sure. [The three disappeared from the place, Kabuto glanced back, while Kankuro had lowered what he was carrying on his back, but Gaara had put his hand in front stopping him, while the sound ninjas continued running and then Dosu was seen raising his head. sleeve.]
The audience were surprised by the speed with which the events happen.
"Ah!" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"How fast!" Eri exclaimed in surprise.
"The speed of the people of this world really continues to amaze me." Iida said.
"What is that under his arm?" Ashido asked.
"No idea. Although possibly a weapon or gadget of some kind." Yaoyorozu said, trying to see clearly what it is.
"Thank goodness the red-haired boy stopped the other from getting involved." Shishida said. "It could have made things worse." The rest of the audience nods in agreement with him.
Sakura: [Furious] Could you for once in your life think about what you do? Think of the rest of us!
Naruto: Okay. [One of the sound ninjas threw two kunai at Kabuto who dodged it and placed his hand on the ground to stop, but Dozu stood in front of Kabuto ready to launch a blow.]
"And while the brat is doing her thing those guys attack." Shigaraki said.
Kabuto: They are from the village hidden among the sound. [Kabuto stepped aside, dodging the blow.]
Sakura and Naruto: Whao is very fast.
"They are definitely fast." Iida said.
"And not just the sound guys, Kabuto is pretty fast too." Hagakure said.
"Well, he's been to these exams 6 times and we don't know how many and what kind of missions he's done, so I'd say his skills must be at least decent." Midoriya said theorizing about Kabuto's abilities.
"Yes, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's actually hiding his true power level." Aizawa thought, looking suspiciously at Kabuto.
"Oh you have no idea." Felicity thought.
Sasuke: He's almost as fast as me.
Kabuto: Mmm [Kabuto smiled, but the lenses of his glasses had shattered] Aaah I understand so that was some kind of attack.
The audience is shocked at what they have just seen.
"Eeh!?" Several people exclaimed in surprise.
"What!? What the hell just happened!?" Kaminari exclaimed in surprise.
"That guy didn't make contact with him." Ojiro said surprised. "But then how could he break the glass!?"
"As he said it was some kind of attack." Jiro said, interested. "And considering where those three came from I think we can deduce what they used." The rest of the audience is shocked when they realized this.
"Sound." Midoriya said while writing in his notebook.
"Wow that's really unpleasant when it happens." Iida said in reference to Kabuto's broken glasses and the fact that it has happened to him several times in his training that his glasses have broken. "That's why you should always need to have e spares."
"Yeah you said it" Uraraka said remembering the large amount of spare glasses Iida has in his bedroom.
Sasuke: Wait, I saw the whole dodging attack. How did that happen?
Shikamaru: It must have been closer than it seemed. Look at him acting like it's nothing, how brave [Kabuto began to get dizzy, falling to his knees on the ground.]
Naruto: [Worried] What? Just…
Sakura: [Worried] Kabuto, what's wrong? What's the matter?
The audience becomes worried upon seeing Kabuto.
"It seems that attack affected him more than just breaking his glasses." Kendo said worriedly.
"I hope he is alright." Shiozaki said worriedly, while praying that nothing serious had happened to him.
Naruto: Hey Kabuto [Naruto and Sakura ran to help him.]
Sakura: Are you okay?
Kabuto: Yes, I'm fine.
Naruto: Are you sure?
Dosu: He's not so tough after all, maybe that's why it's his seventh attempt.
"Hey! That was not manly of you at all!" Kirishima exclaimed, annoyed with the sound trio.
"Attacking like that without provocation!" Tetsutetsu exclaimed equally annoyed.
"Those guys are going to cause trouble, ribbit." Asui said.
"Something tells me that they will be the new villains of this arc." Kaminari said.
"That's for sure Jamming-Yay." Jiro responded, observing them, although she he disapproves of their actions, she is also interested in their abilities, especially since they are based on sound, and wonders if she could learn any tricks from them.
Zaku: Write this on your filthy little card. The Genin of the sound village will be Chunnin when this is over, I guarantee it [Naruto and Sakura looked at him annoyed.]
Sasuke: I don't understand, he saw her attack in time to evade it. What made him fall?
The audience is shocked to hear this.
"Could he have prevented the attack? But then, why didn't he avoid it? Kaminari asked confused.
"Maybe he wanted to measure his strength level. Whether for the exam or to have more information for their cards." Midoriya said.
"That could be it." Uraraka said.
"Or there could be something else there." Aizawa thought suspiciously.
Neji: Hey Lee, what happened with that attack?
Lee: There's more to it than just speed. Some kind of trick.
"Well, that's for sure." Yaoyorozu said.
"It's probably something related to sound." Jiro said, interested in learning more about it.
[An explosion of smoke caught everyone's attention.]
The audience is shocked to see what just happened on the screen.
"What's that?" Ashido asked confused.
"It's probably the instructor making his entrance." Nejire said.
"Let's hope that's it." Kodai said.
Ibiki: Let's see degenerates with children's faces, calm down and listen. [The smoke began to disperse, revealing several ninjas and in front of them was a man with two scars on his face.] It's time to start, I am Ibiki Morino, your sensor and from this moment on, your worst nightmare.
The audience feels great tension due to the appearance of this instructor and the start of the chunin exams. Everyone is very excited about what will happen next.
"What are you waiting for!? Play the next episode now! Bakugo exclaimed.
"That's it." Felicity responded, happy to see the enthusiasm of her audience. "Ah, I can't believe we've been together for a year." This statement greatly surprises the audience.
"One year!?" Several people ask, surprised.
"B…but that's impossible!" Hatsume exclaimed. "We haven't even been watching Naruto for a day!"
"Maybe for you, but for deities like me time works in a different way." Felicity responded to the surprise of the audience.
"Interesting." Midoriya thought, while writing down this information about the deities. "Although now that I think about it, I think Kiddo had said something similar."
Then the episode starts playing.
