Naruto Flower Stem

Chapter 14

The screen of the electronic version lit up and began to draw the names of the contestants.

Everyone raised their heads and carefully watched the text on the electronic version, and remained silent. Tension spread among the only remaining 22 people. The room was unprecedentedly quiet, and only the sound of everyone's breathing could be heard.

The names of the first round were quickly displayed on the screen.I saw a smile on Sasuke's mouth.As expected, he was the first to play, and his opponent was Dou's teammate, Red Copper Armor.

While fighting, Sasuke seemed a little out of sorts.It must be the curse seal on his neck that has affected him, making him unable to use ninjutsu. I clenched my fists secretly, sweating coldly for him.But I know that in the final result, Sasuke will definitely win. Even so, I still want to see his lion combo with my own eyes.

Up to now, I have already accepted this strange ability to predict the future. In fact, there is nothing wrong with it. If I can know the future, can I avoid many bad things from happening?
Sasuke won the preliminaries with a beautiful self-created taijutsu and successfully advanced to the third test.After that, he was taken away by Kakashi because of his exhaustion.But my memory doesn't know all the things, so I don't know anything except the qualifiers.

The rest of the game has always been smooth.

Amoyame Shino fights against Zack, that is, the Shinobi who has the power to control ultrasonic waves and air pressure. As a result, Shino wins by an overwhelming advantage.But that forbearance is not worthy of sympathy at all.Losing badly is a lesson for him.

I stood next to Gaara, watching him a little restless because of watching all kinds of battles, I reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.He turned his head and glanced at me indifferently, his restlessness was temporarily suppressed.

The third round is Sword Triangle against Brother Kankuro.

Brother Kankuro smiled confidently, as if he couldn't restrain his excitement before the battle, or maybe he underestimated his opponent.In short, looking at his back, it makes people feel that he seems to be [-]% sure.Everyone watched solemnly as the two contestants walked to the field to start the competition.

"Hey... Brother Kankuro will definitely win." I muttered in a low voice.

then.When Brother Kankuro walked up victoriously, many people were surprised, but Gaara and I were side by side, expressionless...

In the fourth round, it was Ino and Sakura, who ended up losing both, neither of them passed the qualifiers.

The fifth round is Teju sister and Tiantian.Tiantian uses hidden weapons, but Temari's Feng Dun is the nemesis of hidden weapons, so Temari wins.

The sixth round is Shikamaru's fight against the female ninja of forbearance, Jintu.

In this battle, I really felt his IQ.It's pretty cool to win... I squeezed my chin and watched his lazy look on his triumphant return.

There are still 5 battles... Isn't it my turn yet?

In this case, only Gaara and I are left without playing.

Naruto's battle is in the seventh round, and the opponent is Inuzuka Fang.

There is no doubt that Naruto won. This guy's unexpectedness, physical luck, etc. are all values ​​​​beyond normal people...

Hinata confronts Neji.

Neiji Hyuga, the number one newcomer last year... It turns out that Konoha's Hyuga clan has such a long history.The hatred between the clan and the branch family may continue forever, or it may be resolved in this generation.

I don't understand many things, but I see hatred and indifference in Neci's clear white eyes.In Hinata's eyes, she saw strength and bravery.

In fact, no matter who they are, they all have a sad past...but it's not the best way to be immersed in hatred all the time, is it?
For some reason, watching their battle made me suddenly understand a lot.This is the Chunin Exam...

After several battles, more and more wounded were taken away by the ambulance squad.

Finally it was Gaara's turn to play.

Ninth round.The name on the screen shows Gaara VS Lee Rock.

Gaara looked at the screen calmly, and without saying a word, cast sand and came to the arena.

"Get out of here quickly." He said to Xiao Li who was still in the stands.

but……

Xiao Li's enthusiasm really made me feel speechless and ashamed.

And his teacher...

I saw Xiao Li kicking horizontally, and then began to explain the reason for his temper just now...

"You've been fooled! I hope that the end is not the end. It's like throwing a stone at a pole intentionally and miss it, or throwing a stone unintentionally but miss it!" He said, still punching and kicking, with bloody eyes Shining golden light.

"Oh! As expected of my beloved apprentice!" Kai strode forward proudly.

Then the master and apprentice got together to discuss something, and finally Xiao Li looked at Kai with tears in his eyes, and the two embraced excitedly.

"Okay! Let's go! Li!" Kai's white teeth gleamed silver.

Xiao Li's eyes were blazing, and he jumped off the stands and landed in the arena.

Ning Ci closed his eyes and remained silent.Sakura and Naruto are helpless.Kakashi ignored it...I held my head and stopped looking at them.

Since I know Gaara, I have never seen him get injured, no matter how difficult the task or situation is, the sand will protect him and let him complete the task unscathed.

Including the second exam is the same.

But in this battle, Xiao Li's speed made me unforgettable.

Halfway through, he took off the weights tied to his legs, and the speed suddenly became so that he couldn't even see clearly.

Is this his true strength... I stared blankly at Gaara who was injured by Xiao Li.Both Temari and Kankuro shouted in disbelief, "He actually hurt Gaara!"

Yeah, he hurt Gaara!That Gaara who never got hurt...

I stood aside and worried about Gaara, and at the same time worried about Xiao Li.We have also fought against enemies side by side, and I can't ignore his safety just because his opponent is Gaara.

However, Gaara is not only so easy to defeat... Just when Xiao Li opened the fifth door Dumen but still failed to defeat Gaara, Gaara, who was lying on the ground and almost exhausted his chakra, actually planned to use Sand finished him!

How can you do this……

"Gaara!" I leaned on the railing of the stand and shouted at Gaara, but he raised his hand as if he couldn't hear my voice at all, while Xiao Li couldn't move.

The Sand Armor has been shattered into disrepair... Not only his face, but also the cracks on his body and arms became more and more obvious.

I can't fight anymore, Xiao Li's hands and feet...

"Ah..." I covered my head in pain, memories flooded in like sea water.

Then, I made a move that shocked everyone present.
