This Naruto Is A Little Different

Bursts of applause resounded throughout the venue.

"That's Kakashi's famous ninjutsu, right?"

"Raikiri."

"I remember it used to be Chidori."

"That's right, but because he used this move to cut through lightning, they started calling it Raikiri."

"Is he the genius of the Uchiha clan?"

"As expected from a genius of the Uchiha clan."

Cheers erupted from the stands.

Sasuke turned a deaf ear to the noise because, at this moment, he sensed that something was wrong with Gaara in front of him.

On the highest stand of the Chūnin examination venue, the Third Hokage focused intently, then allowed a hint of satisfaction to show.

Sasuke had learned Kakashi's Chidori and struck Gaara hard.

This time, the outcome of the competition seemed clear.

It was evident that the ninjas of Konoha had won.

The Third Hokage let out a sigh of relief.

The scene from the third round of the Chūnin exams came to mind.

Sunagakure's Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro had all performed exceptionally well.

But in this match, Neji's performance stood out. As a branch member, he had managed to learn the secret technique, Revolving Heaven, which was difficult for most branch members to master.

However, even such an impressive Neji was narrowly defeated by Naruto.

This outcome alone was enough to highlight the strength of both in the new generation.

Although Shikamaru, the young prodigy of the Nara clan, surrendered to Sunagakure's Temari, his performance clearly demonstrated that his clever mind was unmatched by hers.

And with Sasuke defeating Gaara, Sunagakure's strongest Genin, it was a complete victory.

In this Chūnin exam, jointly organized by Konoha and Sunagakure, the new generation of Konoha had claimed a major win, completely overwhelming Sunagakure.

And Kankuro?

Heh, with Gaara defeated, what could Kankuro possibly do?

Nothing.

The aged Third Hokage turned proudly to "Fourth Kazekage" beside him.

At the same time, "Rasa" glanced at the Third Hokage with a peculiar expression.

"I intended to surprise the old Third, but I didn't expect Gaara to get hurt," thought Orochimaru to himself.

He couldn't wait to see the expression on the Third Hokage's face when Shukaku attacked Konoha.

"Unfortunately, let's end it here."

"It's time to begin."

Orochimaru turned his gaze to Kabuto, who had blended in with the Anbu in the stands.

At that moment, Kabuto was preparing to cast an illusion.

"Do it!"

Seeing Kabuto make his move, Orochimaru gave the order.

The Third Hokage frowned.

Boom!

A smoke bomb exploded, and a thick cloud of smoke quickly enveloped several people on the high platform.

"Lord Third!"

The situation escalated rapidly, startling those guarding the Third Hokage.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

But then, explosions echoed from the sky.

Kabuto, now wearing a mask, looked serious: Impossible. The chakra I condensed for the illusion is actually retreating? What's going on?

[Ding! The viewing system is on! The live broadcast room is open, and relevant characters are being loaded...]

[The live chat room is opening...]

Accompanied by a loud mechanical noise, everyone looked up at the enormous structure that appeared in the sky.

Two screens, one with a black border and the other with a white border, stood impressively in the sky.

At the same time, the mechanical sound spread throughout the entire ninja world, startling even those in the Pure Land.

"Your Highness, what's happening?"

As the smoke cleared, the Third Hokage looked suspiciously at the "Fourth Kazekage" beside him.

With the sudden noise, even the master of ninjutsu had no idea what was happening.

Based on his decades of experience, he couldn't even discern what kind of ninjutsu the "Rasa" in front of him had used.

"Is this some kind of illusion you're using?"

"Are you trying to start a war between Konoha and Sunagakure?"

The Third Hokage's questions caused Orochimaru, disguised beside him, to raise his eyebrows in annoyance.

"Heh, Third, I think you're getting old and confused."

Please.

You think I can summon two giant screens from the sky? Who do you think I am?

[Ding! Relevant personnel have been successfully gathered.]

[Everyone can speak freely in the live chat room and participate in the system's prize-guessing activities.]

[The event will select the top three responders at a time, with generous rewards for correct answers.]

[Rewards can include ninjutsu, taijutsu, various physical attributes, unusual daily items, and even the resurrection of the deceased.]

[Everyone, make sure to cherish this opportunity.]

[Note: During the viewing period, the entire ninja world will be controlled by powerful forces, ensuring absolute safety. No one can inflict harm on anyone else.]

A mechanical voice echoed, leaving the ninjas too stunned to respond.

Rewards?

This...

Rasa: "A discussion group where we can speak freely? I didn't expect that even I, a dead person, would be included. By the way, is Orochimaru here? You treacherous snake."
