Naruto: The Strongest Kakashi

"Sasuke-kun, sorry, I lost." Sakura looked at Sasuke and said apologetically.

"It's okay Sakura. Karin is really strong." Sasuke comforted.

As a companion in the same team, Sasuke will naturally not complain about her losing. After all, except for Shikamaru, whoever it was, they will be sad when lose the match.

Seeing Sasuke's gentle attitude, Sakura couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

'Sure enough, Sasuke-kun is the best!'

On the other side, Karin excitedly said to Neji: "Neji, look, I won." .

Neji smiled and said, "Congratulations, Karin. It looks like you will become a Chunin this time."

"Neji, you are also very powerful. Although you lost to Jugo, your strength is obvious to all. The judges will definitely choose you as Chunin!"

Karin was afraid that Neji is feeling down, so she comforted him like this.

But Neji didn't care at all.

Whether he can become Chunin or not is not important to Neji.

This time Tenten and Lee didn't make it to the finals, so he won't actually feel sad even if he didn't become a Chunin.

On the other hand, Shikamaru scratched his head and said depressedly: "Everyone is working so hard, but I don't want to go up, it's really troublesome. I was planning to give up, but I didn't expect to be here. I blame Asuma. That guy is the one who recommend us to take the Chunin exam. I should have been lying on the roof and watching the clouds right now if not for this."

Shikamaru looked lazy, and he was not interested in the competition.

"Shikamaru, you're the one fighting in the next match, so why are you still here? That Sunagakure's Kunoichi is your opponent this time." Naruto called.

"Naruto, what are you talking about? My name hasn't been called yet."

At this moment, Genma shouted: "The third match, Nara Shikamaru vs Temari, please enters the field."

Hearing this, Temari waves her huge fan, causing a powerful gust of wind. After that, she glides and landed at the field using the huge fan.

Shikamaru was slightly surprised when he saw this, and the laziness on his face became more obvious.

"Hey, I didn't want to fight, but now my opponent is a woman. It is really tangled. It doesn't seem to matter if I win or lose, I will still the one who will bear the same. It is really troublesome. Sure enough, I should just give up right now."

Seeing Shikamaru still not going to enter the field, Naruto hurry him up and push him to the field.

"Shikamaru, go!"

Pushed by Naruto, Shikamaru tragically fell from the audience area and fell into the field.

This way of entering is completely different from Temari's beautiful way of entering just now.

Suddenly, there was a lot of boos coming from the audience.

"Shikamaru, do your best!" Naruto shouted.

Shikamaru uncomfortably touched his neck that was hurt when he fell down and then he said, "Naruto, this guy is really rude. It's so troublesome. I can't even give up now. Forget it, I just need to show a good fight. "

Shikamaru slowly walked towards Temari.

"Hah, women are really troublesome."

Temari's expression changed and then she said, "Did you look down on women?"

"That's not the case, I just feel that this is troublesome."

"Hmph!"

Shikamaru and Temari's battle is a textbook-level battle using IQ.

With the holes left by Jugo and Neji's match, Shikamaru succeeded in controlling Temari.

Although he gave up the match in the end, he was able to show everyone his terrifying IQ.

Kakashi couldn't help but feel a little funny after looking at Shikamaru who left the field lazily.

'This guy definitely has spare strength, but he just gave up because he didn't want to participate in the next match.'

'Having proven his abilities and saved himself from more troubles, this guy is really a genius.'

'As expected of Shikaku-senpai's son, he definitely will become his father's successor.'

'It's just that this guy's fear of troublesome things is more serious than Shikaku-senpai.'

For such people, if they don't work hard and lack strength, no matter how smart they are, it won't help. In the end, they will feel the greatest pain when they saw their companions die without them able to do anything.

Temari looked angrily at Shikamaru who has left. At this moment, this lazy man has left a deep impression in her heart.

The match between Kankuro and Aburame Shino was over before it started. The reason was simple. Kankuro forfeit the match.

It is simply courting death to show the battle of the puppet master to a lot of audience like this.

Once all of the hidden weapons on the puppet are exposed, it will be a disaster for the puppet master.

After all, the puppet master often relies on hidden weapons.

Thus, the match was now the final match of the first round.

"The fifth match, Gaara vs. Uchiha Sasuke!"

"Sasuke, don't lose, otherwise, I won't be able to beat you in the next match." Naruto yelled.

"Hmph, don't worry, I will never lose in this kind of place."

Sasuke snorted coldly and jumped directly from the audience area.

On the other side, Gaara also jumped down.

"Fugaku, look, Sasuke is on the field!" Mikoto exclaimed excitedly.

Fugaku folded his hands on his chest with a smile on his serious face.

"This brat has been with Kakashi for a month, I want to know what he has learned." Fugaku said.

"Fugaku, don't say that, Sasuke has worked very hard."

"I know. Mikoto, pay attention later. I heard from Kakashi that there will be something happenings today."

"Yeah, I know."

Fugaku's gaze turned towards Sasuke who is on the field and his mouth curled slightly.

Although Sasuke at this time is not as good as Itachi at the beginning, at least, he has a childhood that is not much different from ordinary people.

This is the most important thing for Fugaku.

At the beginning, Fugaku forced Itachi too tightly, so that Itachi didn't have much happiness at all.

'Sasuke, do what you want to do.' Fugaku muttered silently in his heart.

Above the field, Gaara's eyes were full of cold as he was looking at Sasuke and there seems to be a strong sense of oppression coming out of it.

But Sasuke was not afraid at all, staring directly at the ice-cold green pupils.

"Your blood looks delicious, I can't wait to give it to my mother."

Gaara's face showed a hideous smile, which looked terrifying.

"Hmph."

Sasuke snorted disdainfully and back away to get some distance.

Although he hasn't watched Gaara's battle before, he heard from Kakashi that he was using terrifying sand technique.

'I should get some distance to see the situation first.'

Gaara pulled the plug of his gourd that was on his back, and the sand slowly began to flow out, covering his body.

The match officially begins!

"That Gaara is very powerful. I don't know if Sasuke can defeat him." Neji whispered.

"Neji, what did you see?" Karin asked.

"There is a very large amount of chakra inside that person's body, and it feels very cold. It also has extremely terrifying killing intent."

"Is Sasuke in danger?" Sakura asked worriedly.

"Sakura-chan, you can rest assured. Kakashi-sensei is there, so there should be no accident, and I think that Sasuke can beat that guy!" Naruto said.

"I hope so."

Although Naruto's words made Sakura a little relieved, there was still a faint worry in her heart.

Kakashi looked at the high platform at this time, 'The time is almost up, Orochimaru should start soon.'

Kakashi moved strangely, but it was actually a gesture.

In an instant, all of the Anbu who were hiding everywhere started to move.

An invisible big net is slowly covering the whole place.

Somewhere in Konoha, Hayate and Yugao led two Anbu teams at the gate of Konoha.

"Yugao, Kakashi-senpai said that there will be an enemy invasion today, but I don't know when."

"The estimated time is almost up. Let's wait."

"Okay."

In another part of Konoha, Tenzo also led the group to walk around and patrol the area.

For a while, there seemed to become a bit of murderous intent everywhere in Konoha.

Not far from the village, Sunagakure and Otogakure's Shinobi are being assembled. They only need to wait for a signal from Orochimaru to start their operations.

In the Root Base that was hidden deep under Konoha, Danzo was sitting quietly on his seat, and it is unknown what he was thinking.

His arm slightly moved and then he said.

"Is Orochimaru going to take action now?"
