Hokage, I am Uzumaki Naruto

Among Jonin, Kakashi noticed all the whispers between Naruto and Sasuke.

He looked at the two, and said silently in his heart: "Naruto, Sasuke, after hearing the explanation in the third exam, how would you understand this cruel world?"

After years of war and killing, Kakashi no longer remembered how much blood of the enemy was stained on his own hands.

It was also because of the war, or because of the war, that he had lost all the most important people around him.

Father, mentor, teacher's wife, Obito, and... Lin.

Kakashi suddenly turned his head to look at Maitekai next to him. This guy who talked about youth all day was probably his last best friend in this world.

On the stage, after the Third Hokage spoke again, he finally retreated.

On the side, the moonlight blast with a pale face and panda eyes coughed non-stop and said: "Everyone, it's the first time we meet. Before the third exam, cough cough... I need you to do one thing, That is related to whether you can participate in the preliminaries of the main match."

"Preliminary selection?" Sakura looked puzzled.

Shikamaru said angrily, "What do you mean by preselection?"

They finally passed the second exam, and there was another pre-selection. Isn't this a mentality.

Although the rest of the candidates did not speak, their faces were indeed full of puzzlement and anger just like Shikamaru.

Sakura puzzled: "Teacher, I still don't understand, why don't you let us directly participate in the main match of the third exam?"

Regarding Sakura's question, Moonlight Hayate obviously already had an excuse.He coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said in a leisurely manner: "Because the first two exams were too simple, too many people passed. Therefore, pre-selection should be conducted according to the Chunin selection rules to reduce the number of people in the third exam."

As Hokage-sama also said just now, daimyos from various countries will also come to watch this exam, so there is a certain limit on the exam time. "

"How could this be?" Sakura was completely stunned!

Yueguang Gaifeng said indifferently: "So, those who are not fit for health should quit as soon as possible."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he coughed several times in a row, leaving everyone speechless for a while.

This... seems to be unwell, it must be you, teacher.

Is it really okay for you to look like this?

After a while of silence, seeing no one quitting, Moonlight Gale said sternly: "Then, if no one quits, then the qualifiers will begin."

On stage, behind.

Looking at Sasuke Uchiha among the candidates in the audience, Hongdou was filled with shock.

what happened?Bayi Chinese Network

Wasn't that child cursed by Orochimaru just like her?

Why does it look like nothing happened?

But even so, she still worried: "Master Hokage, that child, I suggest that he be terminated immediately for the qualifiers and be protected and isolated by Anbu's people."

"That's impossible!" Kakashi's voice suddenly sounded.

Looking at the nervous red face, he said with a smile: "That guy is from the Uchiha clan, he won't give up so easily."

Seeing that the person who came was Kakashi, Anko said loudly: "What stupid things are you talking about? Even if you force him to quit. Even if you seal Chakra, the curse seal will respond and trigger his power."

"This is a forbidden technique that will erode the spirit and even the body of the caster. No one understands the pain of this spell better than me. It is already a miracle that the child survived."

As she spoke, she held down the painful curse mark on her neck, with a helpless expression on her face.

Of course Kakashi knew what she said was right, but he already said seriously: "Master Hokage, I assure you that Sasuke will be fine. If something happens midway, I will immediately terminate the match."

"Kakashi! Are you going to kill that child?" Red Bean looked at Kakashi firmly and shouted angrily.

"Shut up, Red Bean. I believe in Sasuke, he is my student, he has the ability to suppress the curse mark." Kakashi said solemnly.

He looked at Naruto next to Sasuke.He looked at Naruto with a calm expression on his face.

Kakashi secretly said: "Naruto, you wouldn't watch Sasuke die, would you?"

After a moment of silence, the Third Hokage finally made up his mind and said: "Just do what Kakashi said, and let that child participate in the qualifiers first. Regarding the matter of Orochimaru, continue to investigate. If that child loses control of the spell, stop him immediately. "

Hongdou wanted to continue to persevere, but it was still futile after all.

He could only helplessly say: "I understand, Hokage-sama."

However, they never imagined that Orochimaru, whom they care about the most, is now pretending to be an Otonin Jonin, hiding among the Jonin, looking at Sasuke excitedly.

Orochimaru suppressed the excitement in his heart, secretly said: "Sasuke, let me see how powerful you are after you have completely mastered the power of the curse seal."

He glanced at Naruto again, and said, "Naruto, you too. It's really exciting to see how far you have grown after mastering the power of the Nine Tails!"

Chapter 53: The Shocked People

Amidst the whispers among the candidates, Moonlight Gale began to explain the rules of the preliminaries.

"The preliminary selection is a one-on-one individual battle. That is to say, this is an actual battle. You have a total of eighteen candidates, which can be divided into nine groups. The winner will take the third test.

There are no rules for this battle, until either party is beaten to death or surrenders.Of course, when I think that one side can no longer fight, I will also stop the game and declare the other side to win. "

Soon after the rules were finished, a large electronic screen appeared on the wall of the duel room.

Soon, under the random selection on the electronic screen, the names of the two players in the first group appeared on the screen.

Uchiha Sasuke vs Red Copper Armor

Seeing the result, Naruto smiled slightly.

Patting Sasuke on the shoulder, he said with a smile: "Go ahead, here's your chance to pretend. By the way, that guy named Red Copper Armor is under Orochimaru's subordinates. You don't have to hold back against him."

"Are Orochimaru's subordinates? Interesting." Sasuke walked towards the field with confident steps, with a dismissive smile on his lips.

The pharmacist stepped out with a face mask on his back, and a pair of eyes covered with black discs of red copper armor.

The two confronted each other, Kakashi came to Sasuke in an instant, and reminded softly: "Sasuke, remember, don't use Sharingan."

Sasuke smiled lightly, and said: "You don't have to worry about the curse seal, Mr. Kakashi, Naruto has already solved it for me, and you can just watch it."

"Naruto? That guy..." Kakashi glanced at Naruto with complicated eyes, and sighed: "If that's the case, then I look forward to your next performance."

"Then, the first round of competition begins here!"

Moonlight Gale gave an order, and retreated to the other side, quietly watching the next battle between the two.

The rest of the people also went up to the second floor one after another, looking forward to the start of the battle between the two.

Sasuke looked at the red copper armor and said with disdain: "Are you the red copper armor? You can only be considered unlucky to meet me."

The red copper armor sneered and said: "Little brat who can only play tricks, look at the trick!" After speaking, chakra emerged in his hand, and he waved his fist to assist Zuo.

"Hmph, over your own strength!"

Sasuke snorted coldly, his body suddenly rushed towards the red copper armor as fast as a gust of wind.

Bang!

Everyone felt a gust of wind flashing in front of their eyes, and before they could clearly see Sasuke's movements, they heard a dull sound.

Under the red copper armor, Sasuke looked at him with a smile on his face, the fist in his hand had pierced his abdomen.

"what……"

The red copper armor wailed, staring at Sasuke with a shocked expression.

This kid, when?

Feeling the heat from his left hand, Sasuke knew that it was blood flowing down his hand.

"You... Sasuke Uchiha..."

Before the red copper armor could finish speaking, Sasuke pulled out his left hand suddenly, followed by kicking out with his right foot.

The red copper armor flew out straight and upside down, and hit the ground heavily.

After finishing this, Sasuke shook off the blood on his hands, and said dissatisfiedly: "Really, it's so vulnerable, I thought it was so powerful!"

"It makes my left hand sticky, which is really annoying."

Glancing at Moonlight Hayate who stayed where he was, Sasuke smiled and said, "I've already killed that guy, can the teacher announce the end of the competition?"

After hearing the words, Yueguang Jifeng came back to his senses, hurried to the side of the red copper armor, checked his breath, and sure enough, he had completely lost his life.

Then he got up slowly, with a horrified expression on his face, he said, "He's already dead."

After finishing speaking, he swallowed hard, suppressed the shock in his heart, and pretended to be calm: "Now I announce that the winner of the first round is Uchiha... Sasuke."

After the words fell, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.But the people present couldn't sit still.

"You're lying! Is Sasuke so strong?" Mimi Ino said in disbelief with her eyes wide open.

Shikamaru looked serious, and said in a deep voice: "It killed that guy named Red Copper Armor in one blow, Sato helped him, it's really scary."

Ya took two deep breaths, and then said happily: "Fortunately, I didn't face that guy Sasuke, otherwise it would be really miserable."

Neji looked at Sasuke's smug look, and instantly recalled the experience of being an enemy against Sasuke and being broken ribs.

His heart was pounding, and he said with lingering fear: "That guy Sasuke is as terrifying as ever."

The three of Sha Yin were shocked when they saw this.

Gaara's face was gloomy and serious, and he looked at Sasuke, and Sasuke happened to meet him.

Looking at Sasuke's cold gaze, he felt for the first time that Sasuke was a difficult opponent to deal with.

As for Kankuro and Temari, the former was directly frightened into a cold sweat.In the latter case, he only felt that his legs were weakening.

Among the candidates, Pharmacist Dou also had a gloomy expression.He never expected that in just a split second, his teammate would be instantly killed by Sasuke.

And what's even more incredible is that he couldn't see Sasuke's movements at all. ..

Sensing everyone's surprised gazes, Sasuke smiled faintly, walked slowly to Naruto's side, and looked at him with a smile on his face.

"How is it? I'm doing pretty well!" Sasuke looked at Naruto, like a general returning from victory, waiting for Naruto's praise.

Naruto smiled slightly, and said comfortingly: "Not bad. It's just that you come out of nowhere, aren't you afraid to scare other candidates and teachers?"

Sasuke said indifferently: "I don't care that much."

Seeing this, Sakura looked away from Sasuke.

Without him, Sasuke killed someone just now, which really shocked her.But soon she thought of Sasuke's victory, and she was sincerely happy for him.

In the end, she summoned up her courage and said, "Congratulations, Sasuke, you have won the first competition."

Hearing Sakura's blessing, Sasuke's heart warmed, and he said softly, "Thank you, Sakura."

Seeing Sasuke smile at her for the first time, Sakura instantly felt that the persistence for so long seemed to have finally paid off.

Finally, Sasuke stopped being cold to her.

Jonin.Kai looked at the red copper armor that had died and was carried away by the medical staff, and said in shock: "Kakashi, your disciple Uchiha Sasuke, you are really ruthless! It took only one blow to kill that red copper armor armor.

His strength, I'm afraid it's not as simple as renunciation.I'm afraid the real strength is even more terrifying than you back then. "

Kakashi nodded, glanced at Sasuke who was about to leave, and agreed: "Indeed, to be honest, the current Sasuke has grown so fast that it has far exceeded my expectations."

In the corridor on the second floor, Sasuke said a few words to Naruto, and then went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

Seeing Sasuke leave, Kakashi also disappeared in an instant.

In the bathroom, Sasuke had just washed his hands and was about to leave when he found Kakashi standing at the door, looking at him seriously.

Seeing that it was Kakashi, Sasuke smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Kakashi, what's the matter?"

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Nothing! I just wanted to come and see you. By the way, congratulations, you are doing very well."

Chapter 54: Shino's Battle Sword Misumi

"Really? I also think I did well." Sasuke replied with a smile.

After saying the words of congratulations, Kakashi then asked the doubts in his heart, and said: "By the way, Sasuke, you said that Naruto helped you solve the problem of the curse mark, so how did he solve it? Can you tell me?"

This issue is not only important to him. If Naruto can really solve the negative effects brought about by the curse seal, then Hongdou, who is also troubled, will have the hope of getting rid of the curse seal.

Kakashi thought so.

Looking at Kakashi's eager eyes, Sasuke said in a low voice: "I was unconscious at the time, but when I woke up, I realized that Naruto used the power of Nine Tails to drive away the will of Orochimaru in the curse seal for me. As for how to do it, I have to ask Naruto."

This answer was obviously expected by Kakashi, so he didn't think there was anything unusual.

Then he asked again: "Then can you control the power of the curse seal now?"
