The blind swordsman selling pots in Konoha

Kurenai left with Hinata, and Neji also left after hesitating for a moment.

The only referees left on the field were Shaz and Moonlight Blast.

"Then, cough, cough, cough... the additional test has begun, and those who are interested in challenging are invited to enter." Moonlight Gale announced.

"I come!"

Naruto yelled and was about to jump off the second floor, but was unexpectedly grabbed by Sakura.

"Naruto! What are you doing? You have already passed the pre-selection!" Sakura persuaded.

"Let me go! I will beat that coward today!"

"Don't let it go!"

"Let go!"

……

"Sakura, let go of Naruto."

Sakura looked at Kakashi in shock. In this distracted moment, Naruto broke away from Sakura and jumped into the arena.

"Kakashi-sensei...why?" Sakura asked in confusion.

Ino looked at Kakashi nervously

But Kakashi didn't answer, he just looked at the field, watching Moonlight Hayate waving his hand to announce the start, watching...

boom!

Naruto flew back at a much faster speed than when he went down, crashing into the guardrail and hitting the wall behind.

"Naruto!"

Sakura exclaimed and immediately rushed forward to catch Naruto.

"Kakashi-sensei, Naruto..."

Kakashi checked Naruto: "He just fainted, don't worry."

Sakura breathed a sigh of relief, and so did Ino.

"Hong, do you know what happened to him? You should be the first among us to know him, right?"

Kakashi asked Kurenai who had just returned from handing Hinata to the medical class.

"I don't know for sure. It probably has something to do with his early experiences. I only met him a year earlier than you. I don't know about him before that."

Hong adjusted her hair and thought for a moment.

"But he seemed really angry this time. This is the second time I've seen him really angry."

"What happened the first time?" Ino asked.

"A very interesting thing happened, with three scoundrels who smashed his stall, collected protection money from him, and insulted him."

Kurenai didn't elaborate, but after hearing about the other protagonist in the story, Ino roughly guessed that the "interesting" Kurenai mentioned was probably not interesting in the popular sense.

"Hey, that sand ninja brat has actually ended up."

After hearing Hong's words, everyone immediately looked towards the field. Sure enough, there was another person on the field at this time.

Faced with Gaara's entrance, not only Kurenai but also Shaz was surprised.

However, Shaz was not the most surprised. The most surprised person was actually the remaining Suna Ninja.

"What is this guy Gaara doing? Even if that guy is Gaara, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to win. What if..." Kankuro complained softly.

Temari also had a serious look on her face, fearing that Gaara would go crazy while slapping her.

"let's start."

Moonlight Hayate looked at Shaz and saw that Shaz nodded and said he was ready before announcing the start of the game.

Click, click, click...

Shaz moved the joints in his wrists and neck.

"If it weren't for the fact that the previous games had to be played in groups of three, I would have taken the Chunin Exam to test my strength."

"By some strange combination of circumstances, I didn't expect that you, a good target, would be delivered to my door by yourself."

Shaz said as he strolled over to Gaara.

After walking one meter in front of Gaara, Shaz slowly raised his arm and gathered strength backwards, then swung it out with all his strength.

Bang!

A wall of sand blocked Shaz's fist.

But the next moment, the sand wall completely shattered, revealing Gaara with a slightly stunned expression behind him.

"It's me!"

A stream of sand suddenly shot out from the ground and hit Shaz's neck.

After dodging, Shaz turned around and punched again.

However, it was blocked by the sand wall again, but this time it was better. Shaz successfully penetrated the sand wall.

"The hand is trapped...trouble."

Breaking free from the restraints with force, Shaz performed several more pure physical attacks, and finally came to the conclusion that his physical skills were indeed not very good.

Seeing Shaz pull away and draw his sword out of its sheath, Hong in the stands was obviously relieved.

"This guy is finally serious," Hong said with a smile.

Kakashi also nodded and watched the game more seriously.

Next to him, Kankuro, who had sneaked in from nowhere, looked around, and finally ran to Xiao Li and poked him.

"Hey...how much do you know about that blind man?" Kankuro asked.

Xiao Li thought deeply for a moment: "Oh, I don't know. I even heard the name just now."

Kankuro: ...

Then you were just thinking about something!

With no other choice, Kankuro had no choice but to bite the bullet and ran to Sakura again.

"that……"

Every time Kankuro finished asking, Sakura shook her head.

"I don't know either. Although he and I were teammates before, he took very few shots. I just know that he is definitely better than me... and Naruto."

Kankuro looked at Naruto who was still on the ground and said to himself, "Aren't you talking nonsense?"

Looking at Kakashi again, Kankuro hesitated this time: Isn't it a little too blatant to directly ask the other party's leading jounin to gather information?

Sensing Kankuro's gaze, Kakashi turned his head and smiled: "Don't ask me, I don't know. He didn't try his best in the previous chuunin assessment."

After saying that, Kakashi continued to watch the game.

On the other hand, Kurenai snorted at Kankuro angrily.

"They have already started the game. Don't you think it's too late to collect information now? Watch the game carefully!"

Kankuro suddenly became well-behaved and watched the game quietly.

On the field, after Shaz pulled out the knife, he held the knife in his left hand and raised the knife in his right hand, charging it for less than half a second, and swung it downward with all his strength.

A huge white ball that was as tall as a person appeared... and slowly floated towards Gaara.

It can't be said that it floated slowly. It was slow enough, but it didn't float. Instead, it plowed a groove on the floor and slowly pushed forward.

After making a move, Shaz stood still, waiting quietly for the Ghost Seal Bead to approach Gaara.

"What...is this move?!" Sakura's eyes widened.

Although it does look very powerful, but... this is too slow!

"Maybe... it's an unfinished move?"

Kakashi said that he was not sure, but looking at this big ball was really kind.

The Ghost Seal Pearl slowly approached Gaara, hit the sand wall, and continued to advance against the sand wall.

Gaara looked at the ghost seal bead that was about to stick to his face, expressionless... and took two steps to the side.

He took two steps like taking a walk, as if to prove that he was not sick.

"It seems that this move is indeed quite powerful...it's just a little slow." Kakashi commented.

Kankuro nodded immediately, the move that could make Gaara move must be quite powerful.

"I hope this guy uses this trick, so no accidents happen." Kankuro prayed silently in his heart.

However, just as Gaara regained his footing, Shaz swung his sword again, and a huge slash flew across.

This time Gaara was no longer calm, and immediately squatted down and patted the ground with both hands, and a much larger and thicker sand wall appeared in front of him.

Blocked successfully.

Kankuro in the stands could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, before Gaara could stand up, Shaz raised his sword with his backhand, and several pillars of fire shot up from the ground and struck Gaara again.

"Now I understand what the little blind man just said about a good target." Kurenai said to Kakashi.

Kakashi put his hand on his forehead and nodded silently, he understood now.
