[Naruto] Haruno Sakura Preface

"Sakura, watch it."

In the intensive care unit of Konoha Hospital, the chief physician Shinji Satomi was seriously operating on the patient on the operating table.

While his men kept moving, he quickly told Sakura who was wrapped in surgical clothes not far away.

Sakura deliberately stood in a place that would not hinder the operation and observed carefully, taking a pen to write something down in a notebook from time to time.

As the red card outside the intensive care unit turned green, the patient was pushed out of the operating room and pushed to the observation ward by the arriving nurse.

"Is there anything you don't understand about this operation?" Shinji Satomi took off the medical gloves on his hands, took the notebook in Sakura's hand and looked at it carefully.

"Yes." Sakura said calmly.

"Tell me." Shinji Satomi closed the notebook in his hand, nodded with satisfaction and handed it back.

Sakura brought up some details of the operation that she didn't understand just now.

Shinji Satomi fluently answered questions about Sakura.

"Isn't there a final exam in the Ninja School today?" Shinji Satomi asked curiously after answering Sakura's questions.

"Yeah, I'm going to go after I finish my work now." Sakura folded the protective suit she took off and put it back in place.

"I see." Shinji Satomi nodded to express understanding.

"Thank you for taking care of me during this time." Sakura bowed to her with a respectful look on her face.

"What happened?" Shinji Satomi looked at Sakura's movements in surprise.

"Jiraiya-sama has returned to the village and will embark on his journey tomorrow." Sakura replied.

"I see." Shinji Satomi looked regretful.

Sakura was a student who was temporarily assigned to Konoha Hospital by the senior management three months ago. The senior management asked Satomi to teach by name.

She originally thought that she was just another young lady from a high-ranking family who was temporarily interested in medical ninjutsu, so she never took it to heart.

But as the contact between the two gradually deepened, she gradually discovered Sakura's talent for learning medical ninjutsu, that is, superb chakra control ability and rich medical theoretical basis. The most important thing is that she treats everything with diligence, which makes her love talents.

I didn't expect to leave so soon.

"I will come back to visit you when I have time in the future." Sakura comforted upon seeing this.

"Then remember to take good care of yourself and don't slack off in your medical studies." Shinji Satomi cheered up and told Sakura like an old-timer.

"I understand, then I'll leave first." Sakura nodded to express her understanding, packed up her things and said goodbye to Satomi.

After leaving the hospital gate, Sakura quickly walked towards the Ninja School. Before reaching the entrance of the Ninja School, across the street, Sakura saw the classes in front of the Ninja School arranged in an orderly manner from left to right.

Each of the squad leaders stood at the front of the team, each holding a team flag with their squad number written on it.

Sakura quickly sneaked to the end of Class 6's team while no one was paying attention.

"Sakura-chan!" As soon as Sakura slipped into the team, Naruto, who was standing at the end of the team, saw her and happily raised his hand to say hello.

Before Sakura could reply, a cold voice came from beside her.

"Haruno Sakura, I will definitely compete with you today."

Sakura didn't even need to turn her head to hear what the young Uchiha in her class was saying.

Sure enough, when Sakura turned her head, she received a handsome and critical blow from Uchiha.

However, the real owner was looking at him expressionlessly with a disgusting face at this time.

"Ahem, classmates must be friendly to each other. As Teacher Iruka said in class, don't fight and kill all day long."

Sakura coughed a few times to get rid of her identity as Yan Gou, and then gave her earnest advice.

"Mutual friendship" Uchiha Sasuke was silent.

When I had a routine duel with her a few days ago, she was not the one who punched the floor.

Tsk, after all, she is not a female gorilla who can only use brute force.

Sasuke raised his eyes disdainfully and thought to himself.

"Anyway, there will only be one winner between the two of us today."

Sasuke looked impatient, and after saying harsh words, he stood alone at the end of the team again.

"What a stubborn child." Sakura looked up at the sky. Three months had passed since her first fight with Sasuke.

In the past three months, Sasuke fought and lost again and again, but he never won the battle, and his ability to resist blows was forcibly improved a lot by Sakura's fists.

"Damn it, don't interrupt my conversation with Sakura-chan!" Seeing Sakura's attention shift to Sasuke, Naruto shouted dissatisfied at Sasuke.

"The end of the crane." Sasuke raised his eyes and looked at Naruto with disdain, and said a few words out of his mouth like a mockery.

"Damn it, I'm going to beat you to a pulp this time!" Naruto stretched out his finger and shouted at Sasuke.

"That's enough, that's enough." Seeing that the two of them were going to argue, Sakura forcibly pulled Naruto by the collar and returned to the team.

When the little girls on the side saw their male idols and Cranetail quarreling over Sakura, they just wanted to curse a few times when they thought of Sakura's brutal act of beating their male idols. He had no choice but to stare angrily at a certain pink haired person.

Sakura automatically ignored the anger of Sasuke's support team behind her. This happened frequently after she defeated the two pillars for the first time.

Not long after returning to the team, a few more people sneaked into the team.

"Everyone in the class is here, let's officially set off now."

After Iruka counted the number of people, he followed the previous classes to the examination venue.

Along the way, Sakura realized that the team was gradually approaching the Konoha Forest.

Konoha Forest is a small forest inside Konoha. It does not occupy a large area and there are no dangerous beasts. Therefore, there are often some novice ninjas practicing in it.

The large army stopped in front of the forest. One of the dignified-looking men in the third-grade class spoke: "This is the assessment venue for your final exam today in the third grade. The assessment method is conducted in teams, with every three people forming a team." , the exam time is four hours. Later we will distribute scrolls with three categories of heaven, earth, and people to each group. Each group will distribute one type of scrolls, and candidates need to collect the three types of scrolls before handing them over to the forest entrance. Complete the assessment."

The man paused, seeming to see everyone's worries, and added: "The Hokage attaches great importance to this exam, and specially mobilized ten jounin and twenty chuunin to invigilate the exam. During the process of collecting the scrolls, If someone is about to be injured or killed, they will be stopped by the ninja invigilating the exam. So - please let go and grab it."

After explaining the competition matters, the long grouping time began.

Sakura and Ino Hinata were placed in a group, while Naruto was placed in a group with Sasuke and Shikamaru. The remaining Choji, Kiba, and Shino were divided into one group.

Everyone looked at this strange distribution and couldn't help but be silent for a moment.

"Why are you put in the same team with such an idiot!"

Naruto pointed at Sasuke standing aside and said dissatisfiedly.

"Hmph, the tail end of the crane." Sasuke also darkened his face.

"It's really troublesome." Shikamaru looked at the sky with dead eyes.

"Are they really okay?" Ino whispered in Sakura's ear.

"I don't know, let's work hard." Sakura said helplessly, spreading her hands.

"You are Hinata, I am Haruno Sakura. Please give me your advice next time."

Sakura turned her gaze to Hinata, who was assigned to a group, and said politely to Hinata.

"Please take care of me." Hinata, who was paying attention to Naruto, noticed Sakura talking to her and stuttered with a blush.

"My name is Yamanaka Ino, just call me Ino." Ino patted Hinata on the shoulder generously.

"Yeah," Hinata replied shyly, lowering her head.

"This is your group's scroll." While several people were introducing it, Iruka handed a scroll to Sakura.

"Thank you, teacher." Sakura took the scroll and put it on her waist naturally.

"It's better not to open it now. It would be bad if someone finds out." Sakura said to Hinata and Ino who were confused.

"The exam will begin next. I hope all candidates will work hard and pass." After the scrolls were distributed, the man took out an hourglass from the storage scroll and placed it on the ground to announce the start of the competition.

Without stopping, everyone immediately dispersed, looking at the surrounding teams warily, and each led his own team into the woods one after the other.

"Let's go too." Sakura nodded. Instead of running on the ground like everyone else, she jumped onto the tree trunk.

Ino and Hinata also jumped to Sakura's side. Compared with Sakura and Ino's familiarity, Hinata is a bit unfamiliar. But her rigorous daily practice soon allowed her to stabilize her figure.

"Are you okay?" Sakura asked Hinata concerned.

"Okay." Hinata nodded.

"Then let's go." After saying that, the three of them rushed into the forest without stopping.

---

"Ino, feel it."

Sakura observed the surrounding situation vigilantly, and the three of them stood back-to-back in a circle to guard against any movement around them.

Ino didn't say much, and immediately put her index and middle fingers together on her chest. Then he closed his eyes, and in an instant, all the chakra flow within a hundred meters radius was exposed to Ino's spirit.

"Watch your step at two o'clock!" Before Ino could carefully sense the position of the person ambushing them, a familiar chakra rushed toward them, and they had to stop sensing. Remind the two people around you. .

As soon as the words came out of their mouth, the three of them jumped up without hesitation, avoiding the shadow that was darker than the shadows around them.

"Shikamaru." The sun was blazing, and the sunlight was blocked by the large trees in the forest, causing large areas of the forest to be shadowed.

Sakura watched the inconspicuous black shadow on the floor fade away again, and immediately thought of a certain hedgehog.

"That's him." Ino opened her eyes and confirmed Sakura's answer.

"Hinata, turn on your Byakugan now to avoid being taken advantage of by Shikamaru's secret technique." Sakura commanded calmly.

"Okay." Hinata opened her eyes, and the chakra surge of the three people behind the tree was clearly visible.

But the first thing that was exposed to her eyes was a shadow running towards her. The shadow was surging with blue chakra, clearly visible in the shadow of the trees.

"It's here again, get out of the way!" Hinata quickly reminded the two of them.

"How annoying." Ino clicked her tongue, and the others avoided Shikamaru's shadow restraint technique again.

Just as Sakura stood still, the sound of ninja tools breaking through the air was heard behind her.

Sakura didn't turn her head, but quickly took out the kunai from her ninja bag and threw it backwards.

With a few tinkling sounds, several kunai shot towards Sakura were all knocked to the ground.

"Hinata, location!" Sakura didn't care who threw the kunai, but immediately confirmed the location of several people to Hinata. At the same time, she condensed chakra in her hand, and with one palm, she moved the person beside her who was big enough for an adult man to hug her. Tree trunks are on sale.

"Two o'clock, five o'clock, twelve o'clock, Shikamaru, Sasuke and Naruto-kun respectively." Hinata was quickly reporting the locations of several people.

"Then, it's my turn." Sakura picked up the bent tree trunk on the side and waved it towards the location of the three of them unceremoniously.

"This woman." Shikamaru hid behind a tree and observed Sakura's movements, his expression solemn.

When he saw the ten-meter-long tree trunk swinging towards him unceremoniously, Shikamaru quickly jumped out of the way. When he turned around, he saw that the tree he was originally standing on was suddenly split in the middle.

"Terrible woman." Faced with Sakura's cruelty, Shikamaru said in a cold sweat.

Before the others could react, Sakura quickly waved the tree trunk in her hand, turned around and swung towards the hiding place of the remaining two people.

The last two people also moved out of the way, and the tree they were standing on became the dead souls of Sakura's men.

The originally dark woods became brighter after a few trees were interrupted by Sakura.

"Sakura-chan." Naruto standing aside was frightened by Sakura's actions.

"" Sasuke was also shocked and speechless, silently raising the level of Sakura's cruelty to another level in his heart.

"Sakura is so amazing." Hinata looked at Sakura enviously and said. |

"I found you." Sakura smiled as she saw the familiar faces exposed in her field of vision. The tree trunk in her hand instantly broke into several pieces and was thrown towards several people.

"Get away!" Several people hurriedly jumped away, and the flying tree trunks penetrated straight into the ground, making several people feel numb.

"Secret Technique - Heart Turning Technique!" Without giving Shikamaru time to react, Ino's seal faced Shikamaru, who was still in the air due to his leap, with a sly smile.

"Not good." Shikamaru was about to adjust his posture to avoid Ino's heart and turned around, but there was no point of leverage in the air.

Shikamaru, who was in the air, just felt his body shake. After landing, he immediately rushed towards Naruto who was beside him uncontrollably.

"Hedgehog head, what are you doing!" Naruto shouted in confusion as he looked at Shikamaru who was charging towards him with a kunai.

"This idiot." Shikamaru was squeezed aside by Ino's consciousness, unable to hold his forehead.

However, Sasuke immediately came over, and when he was about to reach out and snatch Shikamaru's kunai, he suddenly slashed the back of Shikamaru's neck with a hand blade, intending to knock out Ino's spirit.

But before the action started, Sasuke was violently pulled by a strong force from behind and threw himself away.

Sasuke landed easily, and when he raised his eyes to observe, he saw the cold silver light reflected from the iron.

Sasuke's black and white pupils shrank, and a red magatama suddenly appeared from them.

"Sasuke-kun, you lose." Sakura held a kunai against the face of the boy in front of her and announced the end of the game with a smile.

"" Sasuke clenched his fists and looked behind Sakura with a calm expression. Shikamaru, under Ino's distraught body, was held down by Hinata's soft fist and his joints were unable to move. He could only look at the sky with dead eyes, while Naruto on the side also couldn't move. Ino threatened to tie him up with a rope and threw him aside, looking at the ground with a depressed expression.

The girl's kunai in front of him got closer to his neck, threatening him to hand over the scroll.

Seeing this, Sasuke had no choice but to hand over the tightly hidden scroll. His fair and handsome face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

But the pink-haired girl didn't care about his dark face and still kept a smile on her face.

"Sasuke-kun, bye." Sakura took back her kunai, waved the scroll in her hand to challenge Sasuke, and then disappeared into the forest with the two of them.

"What kind of scroll could it be?" The three people quickly left the scene of the crime and opened the scrolls they snatched from several people while the surroundings were safe.

"Scroll of Heaven." The three of them looked at the marks on the scroll with great satisfaction. Together with the human-character seal in their hands, they were satisfied with the last earth-character seal.

"Leave the Heavenly Scroll to Hinata for safekeeping." Sakura rolled up the Heavenly Scroll and handed it to Hinata.

"It's safer to keep the scrolls separate." Sakura explained to the confusion on Hinata's face.

"Then keep working hard." The three of them disappeared into the forest and ran towards the center of the forest.

----

| Along the way, Sakura and the others were able to cut through all the enemies. Except for Sasuke and his group, who had a hard time facing each other at the beginning, the others could hardly survive two moves in the hands of the three of them.

Soon, the three of them gathered the three types of scrolls and rushed towards the entrance to end the exam.

"Did you give up again?" He watched the three people talking and laughing as they returned to the entrance of the forest. The examiner looked at the hourglass on the ground. There was still more than half of the sand in the funnel, and there were still three hours left before the exam. Naturally, I thought that the three of them were also abstainers from the game.

He didn't react until the three of them handed him the scroll smoothly.

"Haruno Sakura, Yamanaka Ino, and Hinata Hinata got perfect marks for this test." As usual, the examiner announced the first team to pass in the forest and praised them a few words. After receiving the examiner's reply, the three of them disbanded on the spot.

Sakura declined Ino's request to go shopping, so Ino had no choice but to take Hinata, whom she had just met, to join them in a street sweeping battle.

"I wonder if Jiraiya has found any trace of Tsunade." Sakura left the Konoha Forest thoughtfully and quickly ran towards the Hokage Building.
