Chapter 83: Warm-Up Exercises Begin
Then he raised his hand and tossed it to Sakura.
"Now our scrolls should be complete!"
Sakura, who received the Earth scroll, looked at Sasuke somewhat surprised.
"Sasuke-kun, how did you seem to know from the beginning what kind of scrolls these people were carrying?"
Upon hearing this, Sasuke smiled slightly. "When we exchanged scrolls, I paid a little attention and remembered what scroll each team was holding!"
What?
Sakura was stunned for a moment. Can one remember such things?
No wonder she hadn't sensed any tension from Sasuke from the start until now.
'Sasuke-kun... is a ninja on a completely different level from me and Naruto!'
Sakura glanced at Sasuke with a complicated expression.
She always had an uneasy feeling, perhaps after the Chunin Exams, Sasuke would part ways with them for some objective reason!
After all, their strengths were not on the same level.
"Did you get two scrolls so easily?!"
"I thought we would go through an extra tough battle!"
Even Naruto started to complain.
Sasuke thought about the original text; indeed, battle 690 was especially tough!
But for the proud ninja of Konoha to be toyed with by a few ninjas from other villages...
It's too demeaning for Konoha ninja's identity!
"Let's go! Now let's prepare to go to the center of the forest, submit the scrolls, and we'll pass the exam!"
And Sasuke was about to leave.
But Sakura looked at the other team.
The three guys on this team had scrolls, but Sasuke didn't search them at all. Did he just leave them here!
However, at this moment, Sasuke suddenly stopped.
He turned around and looked back at Sakura, who hadn't moved.
Sakura was stunned for a moment. "I was just thinking, for this team, are we not taking their scrolls? Although we already have two scrolls, maybe we can..."
As Sakura spoke, she suddenly felt something behind her.
Naruto directly pushed Sakura away.
"Sakura, be careful!"
Bang!
Sakura was pushed away and didn't understand what was happening.
The next second, she heard a fierce collision sound.
Sakura jumped up from the ground and quickly moved towards Sasuke.
On the other side, she looked back to check the movement behind her.
Three figures stood on a nearby tree.
"Suna Village!"
Looking at the headbands of the three, Sakura was stunned; these three guys left a deep impression on her.
Naturally, she couldn't forget them!
Thud!
Gaara of the Sand, with his hands crossed over his chest, jumped directly down from the tree.
He glanced at these people on the ground.
The sand beside him was slowly swirling, and a strong killing intent was being crazily released towards Sasuke.
Sasuke felt a bit helpless.
"Is it that urgent?"
Gaara didn't answer, just stared fiercely at Sasuke.
The sand slowly spread, continuously attacking in Sasuke's direction.
"Uchiha Sasuke, targeted by Gaara, you'd better consider yourself unlucky!"
At this moment, the other two people on the tree spoke.
Kankuro looked like he was watching a show, while Temari was also staring at Naruto and Sakura.
"I didn't expect your luck to be so good, encountering two trash teams, and collecting the scrolls so quickly!"
"But it's no use now, your luck can only benefit us!"
Now, Gaara's thoughts were entirely focused on Sasuke.
Since leaving the Sand Village, Gaara had always heard the name Sasuke.
He heard things like Sasuke had defeated an elite Jonin alone, possessed the unique Uchiha bloodline limit.
Such a person would become the cornerstone of Konoha in the future!
Gaara couldn't wait to see what kind of power this so-called last pride of the Uchiha had.
The first exam was already nearly unbearable, now approaching the second exam.
Gaara no longer needed to restrain his power.
"Kill you!"
"Only then can I prove my existence!"
Gaara suddenly spoke.
The killing intent in his eyes was even stronger; in an instant, it seemed like the surrounding temperature had dropped significantly!
Naruto looked at the murderous Gaara and wanted to step forward to act.
However, Sasuke directly blocked him.
"You guys are no match for this guy!"
"If he wants to play, then I'll play with him!"
Seeing Sasuke was about to act.
Temari and Kankuro felt very disdainful.
Trying to fight Gaara was basically seeking death.
More accurately, it was like offering themselves to die.
Gaara's power was not something these lower-level ninjas could withstand.
Swish~~
Gaara's sand, for ordinary Genin, was so fast that it was almost impossible to dodge.
Even with full effort to avoid, it was hard to completely evade.
However, for Sasuke, this speed was still too slow.
But Sasuke didn't intend to dodge immediately.
Boom!
The next second, Sasuke was entangled by the sand.
Naruto and Sakura immediately became somewhat worried!
"Sasuke..."
"Hahaha!" Temari's laughter sounded.
"I thought you'd be more formidable, but didn't expect you to be caught so easily by my sand!"
"As for the two over there, don't worry, once you're caught by my sand, there's only one outcome!"
"That is death..."
Crackling~ Sizzling...
The surging thunder erupted instantly, shaking all the sand around.
Sasuke, covered in lightning, calmly looked at Gaara.
"What..."
Temari and Kankuro were both stunned.
It was the first time they saw someone able to instantly break free from Gaara's sand.
And in this way.
"Using Lightning Release... to escape Gaara's sand!"
"What is this... technique?"
The two widened their eyes, looking at Sasuke covered in lightning.
At this moment, Gaara was even more excited.
'So strong... so strong...'
'Never met such a powerful opponent.'
'As expected, only by killing you can I prove my existence.'
The lightning on Sasuke slowly disappeared.
And Gaara's sand reassembled around him.
Sasuke gently twisted his neck.
"Fine, I'll use you to warm up a bit!"
Having just said that, Sasuke's figure disappeared in an instant the next second.
Swish!!
The sound of wind breaking rapidly.
Temari and Kankuro were directly stunned.
"Where is he?"
Bang!
The sand beside Gaara suddenly burst.
A residual image appeared; Sasuke's attack hit the sand.
Immediately, another attack sounded from the other side.
Bang!!!
Another attack.
'Such fast attack speed... this guy... how is his speed possible to be so fast...'
