"Hu~~~" The puppet's big palm narrowly passed over Gaara's nose, bringing up a sharp wind sound."a**hole, do you want me to die?! Or do you want to die yourself?!" Gaara sat up suddenly and said to Kankuro coldly while staring at him.
This guy actually took out that kind of thing just to wake himself up, is he an idiot?!
With this slap, my head is about to be blown off, okay? Does this guy Kankuro really think he is invincible?!
Besides, what does that excited expression on your face mean?!
Gaara thinks Kankuro is a bit unreliable!
When I was a kid, this guy actually tricked me into using my powers to create a lot of poop?!
Damn it, I want to kill him as soon as I think of him!
"Okay, let's go!" Gaara glanced at Kankuro, then turned and walked towards the tall tower in the center of the Death Forest.
After seeing the strength of Uchiha Sasuke and Haruto, he no longer felt any interest in bullying weak opponents. He just wanted to enter the third exam as soon as possible and compete with these masters!
Shortly after Gaara and the other two left, everyone on Naruto's side woke up one after another. After a short rest, they rushed towards the central tower.
Inside the central tower, many examiners were already waiting here!
Seeing that the time was almost up, Hongdou waved her hand and announced the end of the exam!
So far, only a dozen teams had reached the central tower. Compared with the more than 60 teams at the beginning of the competition, the number had been reduced by more than half!
Although at the beginning of the exam, many candidates were eliminated because they were not adapted to the environment of the Death Forest!
However, the reason for the sharp drop in the number of candidates was Gaara's wanton killing!
Chūnin who was in charge of counting the scrolls of Gaara's team actually counted out a dozen pairs of scrolls from Temari's backpack!
That is to say, there were 60 to 70 examinees who died at Gaara's hands!
"Well, very good!" Anki looked at the number of candidates below and nodded with satisfaction!
"Hey, Ibiki!" Anko looked at Morino Ibiki with a triumphant smile on her face. "It seems that your psychological tactics are no longer effective!"
"Haha!" Ibiki smiled slightly, not paying attention to Hongdou's ridicule.
He looked at Uzumaki Naruto below, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Uzumaki Naruto... What an interesting guy! I hope you can have the same good luck in the third exam!"
In the line of examinees below, everyone looked at the situation around them and couldn't help but burst into an uproar.
When the exam started, the Red Bean examiner said that the number of contestants would be cut to less than half, but they didn't think much of it at the time. They didn't expect that now they would be cut to half of half. It was really scary!
Is this the Chūnin Exam?!
The competition is really fierce!
"How terrifying!" Sakura muttered as she took a look at the sharply reduced number of team members.
If her teammates weren't Naruto and Sasuke, she probably wouldn't have been able to get here!
"It turns out that everyone has successfully obtained the corresponding scroll!" Naruto said with his hands behind his head and a smile.
The team that passed the exam included all of Konoha's Twelve Warriors!
"Naruto-kun!" In the crowd, a cute little girl was pointing two fingers and looking at Naruto secretly.
"It's so good!" Chōji muttered as he ate potato chips that came from nowhere.
It had been a long time since he graduated from Ninja Academy and saw everyone gathered together.
He didn't expect to meet again when he was about to be promoted to Chūnin!
Very nice!
Carefree Naruto, cool and handsome Sasuke, cute and tender Sakura!
The reckless and straightforward Kiba, the nagging Shino, and the shy Hinata!
There were also three new graduates from the previous class whom they met in the Forest of Death!
The youthful and passionate Lee, the calm and resourceful Neji, and the neat and tidy Tenten!
Chōji had never felt happier than he did at that moment.
"Good job, Kakashi!" Guy was chatting with Kakashi on the stands around the examination room.
"I've heard from Lee about the performance of your team members. They are indeed very capable!"
"But..." Guy suddenly said with a smug look on his face, "As long as our team is here, you don't have to think about it!"
"Because the next level will depend on your real ability!" Guy said to Lee with confidence.
"My team members are definitely the strongest among this year's Genin!"
"Haha!" Kakashi sneered, disdaining Guy's words.
You should watch Naruto break Zabuza's sword before you speak!
"Bang!"
Just as everyone was still whispering, a cloud of smoke suddenly exploded in front of the examination room.
"Ahem!"
The Third Hokage showed up in a very pretentious manner and stood at the front of the examination room.
"Everyone, I'm glad to see you all come to this examination room!"
"Next, let's start the third exam of the Chūnin Examination!"
"Before I introduce you, I must first clarify one thing with you..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen cleared his throat and gave a speech on the stage for more than an hour.
Just when Naruto was about to fall asleep, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally finished his speech.
"Next, let the examiner of the third exam, Moonlight Gale, explain the third exam to you!"
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, Gekkō Hayate appeared in front of him in a servile manner, half-knelt on the ground and spoke.
"What?!" Naruto was shocked.
"The old man just talked about so much, but it has nothing to do with the third exam?!" Naruto suddenly had the urge to kill this old man!
"Ahem!"
Hayate Gekko coughed a few times before he started explaining.
"Hey, is there really nothing wrong with this examiner?!" Shikamaru looked at Hayate Gekko suspiciously, afraid that he might cough up his lungs by accident!
"Everyone!" After a violent cough, Hayate Gekko turned around and looked at everyone and said, "Before the third exam begins, I would like to ask everyone to help me complete something!"
"This matter is very important for everyone to be able to take the real third exam!"
"???"
Everyone was confused: "The real third exam?!"
"That's right!" Hayate Gekko said lightly.
"Although Examiner Anko eliminated a large number of contestants in the second exam... the current number of contestants is still too many for the third exam!"
At this point, Hayate Gekko started coughing violently again!
"What I have to do now... is to eliminate half of the people present!"
"What?!"
The crowd below suddenly let out a loud roar.
They thought the second exam was brutal enough, but they didn't expect that half of the candidates would be eliminated?!
This is incredible!
"Okay!" Hayate Gekko waved his hand, interrupting everyone's complaints.
"I declare that the third Chūnin Exam preliminaries begin now!"
