Chapter 17

The Exams Part 2

I don't own Naruto or Zelda

The remaining teams were all lined up. Ronin noticed that Koro's team wasn't there but he knew that it would be fine. After everyone had finally settled The Third Hokage started to speak.

"Okay children before we start this, is anyone willing to forfeit?" The same person who was fighting the sound ninja before the first exam rose his hand. No one else did.

"Ok then depart." The ninja left. Ronin felt kind of suspicious but, he ignored it. "Now can someone tell me why we have these exams?" No one seemed to know the answer. "We have these exams not to prove which nation is strong but, to show the equality all the nations share." Gekko walked up into the front of the adults.

"Those two boards up there." Everyone looked up and saw them. "They will randomly select two people to battle. While the two ninja are fighting the rest of you will be on those balconies." He said pointing to balconies on either side of the room. "It is an anything goes battle but, I will call if I think the battle should be over." Everyone seemed to comply. "The first two contestants are…" The machine is working. Then it stopped. "Shino Aburame vs Zaku Abumi." Shino held quiet and walked to one side. Zaku went to the other side and the rest of the shinobi when to the balconies.

"Now do you have any objections?" Gekko said. Both Shinobi stayed silent. "Alright Begin!" Gekko jumped back to avoid the combat. Shino just stared at Zaku, and Zaku back. Zaku charged Shino. Shino dodge multiple swing and jumped backwards. Zaku keep moving and kept Shino on his toes. Shino then had to result to blocking sending insects to steal his chakra and injury him.

Shino was now on the offensive. He was cheering up. Shino was then meet with a blast. Shino flew back and hit the wall. Zaku had his arms forward.

"Your done. I'll just blast you with pure chakra." Zaku grinned. When he tried to his arms burst. Everyone looked mesmerized. Zaku yelled in pain.

"You should really pay attention to you skin and you'll find another competitor." Shino said. Zaku stares at his arm. He saw lots of bugs all over his skin. He fell to the floor, knocked out. The medics walked out to get Zaku.

"Shino Aburame wins." Gekko said. The gang cheered for him.

"Nice job!" Naruto said.

"Yeah good job!" Ino yelled. Shino walked up onto the balcony. The board flickered. After a couple seconds it stopped.

"Ren vs Sasuke Uchiha." Gekko said. Both jumped from the balcony and walked to the middle. Everyone was so excited. Naruto looked frustrated.

"Of course everyone cares when Sasuke fights." Naruto whispered. Ren and Sasuke glared at each other.

"Any objections?" Gekko asked.

"No objections here." Ren said cracked his knuckles.

"None." Sasuke growled.

"Hold on." Kakashi said. He jumped down. "You want to go through? You are on the same team." Kakashi stated.

"Yeah, he needs someone to show him who's boss." Ren said.

"Ren needs to learn his place." Sasuke said. Kakashi only nodded.

"Okay suit yourselves but, this can't get in the way of the team." Both teens nodded. Kakashi jumped back on the balcony.

"Begin!" Gekko said and jumped back. Ren and Sasuke clashed. Both were throwing punches and blocking others. Everyone watched carefully.

Ren was dodging shurikens and trying to deflect them with his blade. Ren threw back kunais. Sasuke was on his toes as well. Then he made some hand signs.

"Fire style, Fireball Jutsu!" Sasuke yelled and a fireball flew from his mouth. Ren put his sword in front of himself. All of the fire surrounded the blade till the sword itself was on fire.

"Aren't you happy you have my flaming longsword?" Ren ignored him. Everyone stared at his sword.

"Want to try that again?" Ren asked mockingly. Ren swung his his sword and an arc of fire flew at Sasuke. The arc hit him in the chest and he flew to the floor.

"The winner is Ren." Gekko announced as medics came to take away Sasuke

"Nice job Ren!" Ino cheered. Kakashi clapped slowly. Ren jumped up the balcony and stood next to Ino.

"Thanks for your support." Ren said.

"No prob." Ino said the lights flickered as the board chose the next contestants.

"Shikamaru Nara vs Kin Tsuchi."Gekko said. The two walked down the balconies.

"Any objections?" Gekko asked. Both of the ninja shook their heads. "Then begin!"

Kin reached down into her pouch and whipped out three senbon with bell's attached to them and threw them at Shikamaru, who heard the chime and dodged them. He started thinking. She might be trying to do the shadow senbon technique. And as if to answer his thought Kin threw more senbon with only some with bells and Shikamaru was hit by two of them.

He now knew he couldn't rely on just sound alone. He stood ready to move when he heard a jingle behind him. He turned instantly and was hit in the legs by senbon. He looked at saw Kin holding a wire that conected to the bells as he looked at her his vision got blurry and it looked like there was more than one Kin.

"Your done now." she said. Shikamaru started weaving hand signs. Kin grabbed more senbon and raised her hand ready to throw them when she froze.

"Checkmate." Shikamaru said. Kin looked down and saw his shadow stretched thin under the shadow of the wire. Shikamaru graped a kunai from his pouch. Kin did the same. He raised his hand ready to throw the kunai.

"You would never do that." Kin said smiling but Shikamaru just smiled back. He threw the kunai and before it hit him he bent his back.

"Ha! I knew-" Kin started but stopped as she hit her head on the wall behind her knocked out.

"The winner is Shikamaru Nara." Gekko announced. The board flashed with the new names.

"Tenten vs Temari!" Gekko yelled. The blond haired sand shinobi jumped off and glided to the floor. Tenten jumped down from the balcony and rolled into her position.

"Any objections?" Tenten shook her head. Temari only got into a battle position. "Okay. Begin!" Tenten threw some kunai at Temari who blocked it with her fan casing. Temari swung her fan and Tenten barely dodged the arch.

Tenten unraveled a scroll. Out the scroll hundreds of kunai and shurikens flew out. Temari only blocked direct one but was cut multiple times. Temari opened her fan a little.

"Now you see one moon. Once all three are revealed the battle is over!" Temari yelled. She swung her fan again and a large gust of wind flew toward Tenten. It made contact and cut Tenten in multiple places.

"Fine! You wanna fight. Here's a fight!" Tenten flew up into the air and unraveled two scrolls. Down fell iron spike balls and senbon. Temari opened her fan to block the attack. Tenten growled in frustration. Temari ran at Tenten.

"And now there's three!" Temari opened the fan and swung it. A small tornado hit Tenten and cut her up even further. Tenten fell.

"Temari wins!" Gekko said. Temari returned to the balcony. Then the board flashed.

"Neji Hyuuga vs Hinata Hyuuga!" Hinata hesitated but, she went to the middle.

"Lady Hinata. I recommend you quit now. If you know what's good for you." Neji growled. Hinata only glared back.

"No. It's time I prove myself." Hinata said.

"Obviously no objections. Begin!" Both contestants activated their byakugan and rushed at each other. Both attack with pulses of chakra.

(On the balcony)

"This is bad." Rock-Lee said.

"What's bad." Ronin asked.

"This whole fight. Lady Hinata is at a major disadvantage."

"Don't underestimate her." Ronin said.

"No it not that I'm underestimating her it just, Neji hates her." Rock-Lee said. Ronin looked confused.

"Why." Now the whole gang was listening.

"There are two houses of the Hyuuga clan. The main house and the branch house. Hinata is part of the main and Neji is part of the branch." Rock-Lee explained.

"How do you know this?" Naruto asked.

"Neji has told me a little and I investigated the rest." Rock-Lee said.

"Intriguing." Ronin said.

"The branch house consist of servants to them main house. Neji's father was the youngest of twins, making him part of the branch house." Rock-Lee continued.

"Ok. Let's get back to the match." Naruto said.

(Hinata)

Neither Hyuuga had landed a solid hit. Just some glances here and there. Then Hinata made a small mistake. She tried for a kick, which Neji easily avoid and he slammed his palm into her chest. Hinata slid back and held her chest. Neji rushed at her going for a kill. Then suddenly multiple Jonin held Neji.

"Neji. I have told you not to let personal relations get in the way of this exam." Guy sensei said. Neji only grunted. Medics rushed out. They scanned her with chakra for a diagnosis.

"She's internally bleeding! He really did try to kill her. Naruto rushed to help with Hinata. The jonin let Neji go and Naruto saw a small pool of blood in Hinata's place. Naruto gritted his teeth.

"I make a blood oath." Naruto said dipping his fingers in Hinata's blood. "In Hinata's name, I will defeat you!" Naruto yelled. Neji only laughed.

"Try me punk." Neji turned and walked away. Naruto returned to Ronin.

"She'll be okay. " Ronin said softly.

"Thanks Ronin." Naruto whispered sadly. The board blinked.

"Ino Yamanaka vs Yoroi Tsurugi." Gekko said. Ino walked down.

"Any objections?" Gekko asked. Ino shook her head. "No." Yoroi said. Ino studied him when Yoroi charged at her. He swung multiple hits that Ino doged. Then Yoroi grabbed her by the throat and started draining her chakra. Ino pushed off his chest and kicked Yoroi. Yoroi only rushed after her but Ino punched him before he could swing. Yoroi grabbed Ino again in a crushing bear hug.

"Say goodbye to you precious chakra." Yoroi whispered. Ino struggled and head butted Yoroi and kicked him in the shin. Ino made hand signs then giggled.

"Mind body transfer jutsu!" Both ninja stopped in their tracks. Then Yoroi raised his hand.

"I forfeit." Yoroi said in a cowardly voice. Gekko knew what was happening but, said nothing.

Naruto sighed as the names were called.

"Naruto Uzumaki vs Kiba Inuzuka." Gekko said. Naruto jumped down. Kiba walked down with a large grin.

"This is gonna be easy." Kiba said. Akamaru barked.

"Don't underestimate me." Naruto grinned back.

"Any objections?" Gekko asked.

"Nope." Naruto said and got into his fighting stance.

"Nah." Kiba said and got down lower to the floor.

"Alright. Begin!" Naruto ran at Kiba and swung Kiba grabbed his arm and threw him. Naruto recoiled and made hand signs.

"Shadow clone jutsu!" 10 Naruto clones appeared. They all ran at Kiba and he and Akamaru tag teamed clone after clone. Naruto made more clones to keep Kiba occupied but Kiba kept destroying clone after clone.

"Akamaru!" His wolf pup jumped on top of him and then Kiba made some hand signs. "Man beast clone!" Kiba yelled. There was a puff of smoke then in the pup's place was another Kiba.

"What?" Naruto yelled. Naruto threw some shurikens at the two. They easily avoided them and rushed towards him. Kiba and Akamaru kept Naruto on his toes. Naruto desperately tried to swing but, he couldn't land any blows. Kiba then slashed Naruto in the leg then threw a smoke bomb at Naruto's feet.

"Fang over Fang!" Kiba and Akamaru both turned into a cyclone. They rushed at Naruto who couldn't see anything. Kiba and Akamaru were hitting Naruto multiple times. Ronin was just watching.

"Think, Naruto, Think!" Naruto thought. After more scratches and cuts Naruto thought of something and when the smoke had cleared there were three Kibas.

"You think you can trick me! Nice try, I can smell you." Kiba said and punched one of the Kiba's. When he fell to the floor it turned into Akamaru. Kiba was shocked. Kiba turned and hit the other but, it turned into Akamaru too. Then Naruto caught Kiba by his back.

"Ha, I got you!" Naruto yelled. His clones grabbed Akamaru and then both grinned.

"You think you have me! Akamaru here!" Kiba said and flung a pill into Akamaru's mouth. Kiba ate one too. Naruto looked confused. Then Akamaru grew two sizes and turned red. Akamaru destroyed his clones. Naruto then was thrown off of Kiba.

"Now your done!" Kiba charged at Naruto, but Naruto made some hand signs.

"Wind style, Great wind cannon!" Naruto called Kiba flew back into the wall and was knocked out.

"The victor is Naruto Uzumaki!" Gekko said. Naruto cheered. Ronin clapped for board flashed.

"Kankuro vs Misumi Akado." The two walked down the stairs.

"Any objections?" both ninja shook their heads. "Then begin." Kankaro dropped the thing off his back next to him. Misumi ran at him. When Kankaro threw a punch Misumi wrapped himself around him.

"What?" Kankaro asked. "If you don't quit know I will break your neck." Misumi told him.

"Never!" Kankaro said.

"I warned you." There was a crack and Kankaro's head went limp.

"The winner is-" Gekko started but stopped as Kankaro's head moved. Then his head turned one-eighty to look a Misumi.

"But how?" Misumi asked. The thing in bandages that Kankaro dropped moved. Then it unraveled and revealed Kankaro himself. The Kankaro that Misumi was wrapped around face began to chip off.

It revealed a puppet. "That is Crow, my puppet." Kankaro replied. He moved his fingers where Misumi saw chakra threads were attached. Suddenly, Crow turned and wrapped itself around Misumi.

"Wait-" he said but before he could forfeit Crow constricted and broke all of the bones in his arms and legs. Misumi fell to the floor as Crow unrapped himself from him.

"The winner is Kankaro." Gekko anocued. The board flashed

"Ronin Vs Dosu." Dosu jumped down, but Ronin spread his wings and flew to the floor. Everyone who saw this for the first time stared .

"Any objections?' Ronin cracked his knuckles.

"None here." Ronin smirked. Dosu's eyes hardened.

"None." Dosu growled.

"Okay. Begin." Ronin summoned his scythe and wings and flew up into the air. Ronin swooped down and cleaved his scythe. Dosu jumped back and threw some shuriken. Ronin reflected them. Ronin then summoned some cloness and sent them at Dosu. Dosu started to fight the clones the Ronin flew up into the air.

"Fiery rain!" Ronin shouted and fire started raining onto Dosu. Dosu put his braces in front of him.

"Sound Barrier!" There was a sonic boom in the room and the fire was cleared out and the clones disappeared. Ronin smirked.

"Nice trick. Not like it will help." Ronin charged and instead of swinging Ronin grabbed Dosu and flew up into the air. He threw Dosu to the floor and in a puff a smoke he split in to a clone who charged Dosu and the real Ronin sat on the statue. Ronin meditated to talk to Infurgus.

When Ronin got into his self conscious he was holding the potions he redeemed.

"Why am I still holding this?" Ronin asked.

"You're suppose to drink them to gain the full aspects of both power." Infurgus said.

"Well then bottoms up." Ronin chugged both bottles one after the other. Infurgus just sighed.

"Go back to fighting the kid. You know enough to defeat him." Infurgus said. Ronin came back and Dosu was in front of him.

"What's up?" Ronin asked then kicked Dosu off the statue. "Now your done." Ronin grabbed Dosu but, Dosu put his gauntlets forward and let out a huge sound wave. Ronin held his ears and Dosu kicked him in the gut.

"Look who's done for now." Dosu said. Dosu kicked him again. When he tried to go for a third kick Ronin grabbed his leg. Ronin lit his hand on fire and started to burn Dosu. Dosu tried to pull away but, Ronin held on tighter.

"Look who's done for now." Ronin mocked and increased the intensity of the flame.

"That's enough!" Gekko said. Ronin dropped Dosu.

"Alright no need to get mean about it." Ronin sighed.

"The victor is Ronin." Gekko said. Ronin cheered. Everyone looked at Ronin. Ronin flew up to the balcony to see Lana there.

"Hey." Ronin smiled

"Hey." Lana said.

"After this we'll go out and buy you some house necessaries." Ronin said. Lana looked confused.

"I want to balance out the universe and be nicer to you." Lana just scoffed.

"Yeah right." Lana said.

"You'll see." Ronin said. The board flashed.

"Faron vs Aaron!" Gekko yelled. Aaron jumped off the balcony and landed on the floor. Faron gave Koro's katana to Gori and did the same thing.

"Any objections!" Both keep quiet.

"Alright Begin,"

"Your friend deserved to die. Anyone who made the mistake of becoming your friend does. Just like this stupid nation." Aaron said throwing kunai at Faron. Faron made no attempt to dodge them and they deflected off of his armor.

"You don't remember who I am do you? Don't tell me the name doesn't even sound familiar." Aaron threw two more kunai but, for some reason the kunai embedded themselves where the hit.

"I didn't think regular kunai would penetrate your armor so I made these." He said holding up three more. He threw them and Faron pulled his shield of his back and deflected them.

"Do you know who the real monster is here?" Aaron asked. "It's not Infurgus nor the nine tails. It's you." Faron drew his sword and raised his shield.

"I know what you did Faron. You killed them all. Your own village. Your own sister." Aaron pulled out a scroll from his coat unraveled it and threw it into the air. He made a hand sign and in a puff of smoke a dual bladed sword fell from the scroll. He put the scroll back in his coat and ran at Faron.

Their swords clashed together. "This sword will cut you." Aaron said. He kicked Faron and slashed his chest. "You ran away from what you did and thought it wouldn't follow you." They clashed swords again. Aaron spun the sword and knocked Faron's shield out of his hand.

Aaron walked back and Faron made no attempt to follow. "I will avenge our village because, as of today there will be only one survivor from our village. I was lucky that I wasn't in the village when it happened. But I saw when I came back. She thought she could stop you." There was pure hatred in Aarons eyes. Faron dropped his sword.

"And that was her last mistake. This is your fault Faron. You killed her!" He charged at Faron. "You killed Ame!"

"Stop telling me things I already know!" Faron yelled back. His chakra grew larger than it dispersed. The kunai embedded in him melted into his amor. He raised his hand and the kunai shot back out. Aaron dodged them. "What?" Faron moved his hand out to the side. A sword slid out of his gauntlet.

"It wasn't my fault." Faron said looking down. He swung the sword and senbon flew from the blade. "This is what you used." Aaron said staring in shock as the senbon hit him. Faron looked up.

"This is my kekkei genkai."

(Flashback)

Faron lived in a small village with his mother his father and little sister Ame. His parents were merchants and every day they were telling him trading day a stranger had appeared.

Faron walked towards the stranger. His parents always told him to be nice to strangers when they arrive in the village. That way they said the stranger will be more willing to buy things.

"Hello," Faron said. "My name is Faron welcome to our village. Do you need anything?" The man looked down.

"Actually I've heard a story that said a man from a far away nation came here and settled in the villages in this area." Faron had heard the story many times .

"Yup, I've heard it too. He was from a different continent, whatever that means." Faron replied. The man's interest grew.

"Do you know which village he lived in?" Faron wondered why a man would come here chasing a story.

"This one." Faron answered. The man's eyes widened.

That was when Faron first met the strange man. The man stayed in the village and bought a house. He especially found interest in the children. One day the man told Faron about something called chakra and Faron learned to harness it. Once when Faron was experimenting with chakra he found that if he charged metal with his chakra he could shape and control it.

He immediately went to show the man and the man told him he had to keep it a secret and not to use it. Faron decided to not to listen and charged metal everywhere in the village with his chakra for later use.

One day his best friend Anissa, had wondered in the man's house looking for him. Faron never knew why but he heard his name called. He rushed to where he heard her voice and saw her impaled by a sword wielded by the man.

Faron screamed. He didn't know it at the time but, metal all over the village were

turning into spikes and impaling people. The houses themselves were punctured along with citizens.

(With Aaron)

Aaron and Ame walked to the village on the hill overlooking it to see destruction. Some of the houses were on fire and in the middle of it, was Faron.

"We need to find out what happened!" Ame exclaimed sliding down the hill.

"Wait, no!" Aaron yelled. I need to go help her. But.. but I'm to scared. He hid and watched. Ame ran to her brother. Aaron saw a piece of metal on the ground move. The metal formed a spike and extended, impaling Ame.

"No!" Aaron yelled. He again hid crying. He sat there for the rest of the day and, when he woke up Faron was talking to someone. The stranger had a giant sword on his back and the two walked off together.

Aaron sweared he would avenge his village. He stood up knowing what he had to do. Follow them. No matter where they went.

(End of Flashback)

Faron raised the sword and ran at Aaron. He swung twice and although Aaron blocked the swings, they had so much power in them that he was unbalanced. Faron swung up knocking the sword into the air. Faron raised his fist and the sword went back into his gauntlet. He punched Aaron in the face with all of his strength.

Aaron flew back and hit the ground, knocked out.

"The winner is Faron." Gekko said. Faron's demeanor had changed and everyone was cautious of him. Ren walked up to him.

"You okay?" Ren said. Faron let out a heavy breath.

"No. I'm not. I need some space right now." Faron walked off. Nia watched him walk away.

"It'll be fine Nia. What ever happened he'll tell us soon." Ino said.

"Wow that makes four off us with a shady backstory." Ronin commented. The Board flashed.

"Nia vs Kazoku!" Gekko called. Ino patted Nia's back.

"You can do it Nia." Ino said.

"Okay." Nia said and she walked off the balcony. Her opponent jumped down. Nia dropped down into her battle stance.

"Any objections?" Gekko asked.

"No need for one." Kazoku hissed. Nia's face hardened.

"Try me punk." Nia said.

"Begin!" Kazoku threw multiple shuriken at her. The shurikens missed completely and went to either side of her. Then in the corner of her eye, she saw something and realized that Kazoku had wire attached to the shurikens.

He pulled the strings and shurikens turned and wrapped themselves around making the wire tie her up. The shurikens stabbed into her back. Kazoku tightened the wire and they cut into her skin.

He put the wire in his mouth, holding them with his teeth. He made hand signs.

"Fire style, fireball jutsu!" the fire ran along the wire setting her on fire. He dropped the wire looking at her burn.

"Boo." Nia said. Kazoku whipped around to be kicked in the face. He fell to the floor.

"What?" he asked looking at the flaming wires to see a burning log. She raised her fist.

"Substitution jutsu that's what." she punched him in the face and when it didn't knock him out she kept doing it. By the third punch he was knocked out but she didn't stop.

"Stop!" Gekko said. She froze in the middle of punching him.

"The victor is Nia." Gekko said. Nia lowered her fist and returned to the balcony. The board flashed.

"Gori vs Midori!" Gekko yelled. Gori flipped off the balcony. Midori walked down. Gori smirked.

"Better give up. I'm gonna wipe the floor with you." Gori said.

"I got someone cocky. Good." Midori grinned maniacally.

"Begin!" Gori charged at Midori who made no attempt to move. When he was about to swing he heard a bell chime.

"Boom." she said. There was an explosion next to his ears. He fell to his knees and covered his explosions went off on after another. Gori thought he was going to go deaf because how loud they were.

Midori kicked him in the chest making his hand uncover his ears. He noticed something. The explosions are just as loud when my ears aren't covered. I must be in a genjutsu! Midori walked closer. Gori took out a kunai with a explosion tag attached to it. He took wilds swings at her and with her arogense she didn't notice the tag. He slammed the kunai into the ground, seeming to give up stabbing her. She kicked him again and walked up to him.

With the kunai now behind her, he made a hand sign. She put her foot on his shoulder.

"What are you trying to do?" she asked mockingly. He looked up, staring her straight in the eyes.

"Boom." He said. There was a hissing sound and Midori turned around to see the paper bomb kunai. It exploded sending them both flying. Midori hit the ground knocked out and Gori was unable to move

"Both contestants are unable to continue the battle!" Medics rushed out and took them both away. The board flashed one last time. "Rock Lee vs Gaara!" Rock Lee jumped from the balcony enthusiastically. Gaara however took his time.

"Any objections?" Gekko said.

"None here!" Rock Lee yelled putting his arm forward.

"None." Gaara said.

"Begin!" Gekko said. Rock Lee ran extremely fast at Gaara. When he went for an attack, sand appeared where Lee tried to attack Gaara. Everyone observed closely. Lee continued to somewhat teleport around Gaara. Gaara tried to attack Lee who easily avoided it. Lee continued to attack until Gaara sent a stream of sand at Lee. Lee jumped back and ran up to the statue.

"Alright Lee take em off!" Guy said from the balcony. Lee smiled widely and unhooked the weights.

"Not like there's anything in there." Naruto said. When the weights hit the floor they exploded in a large wave of sand and dust. Naruto looked wide eyed and so did everyone else.

"You push him really hard Guy." Kakashi said.

"Well he's like me. At a certain disadvantage of not being able to use jutsu, but I trained him to use Taijutsu in a way that he has no competitor. Lee started to move and puffs of sand around Gaara started to appear around him.

"Wow. That's… awesome." Ronin said. Everyone nodded in agreement. Lee continue but, he was caught off guard and Gaara tripped him and Lee skidded across the floor. Lee jumped up. Gaara was now on the offencive. Lee avoided lashes of sand and small waves. Lee then speed around Gaara and hit him so quickly that he got past the defences and nailed Gaara in the face. Temari and Kankaro looked wide eyed.

"No one has ever hit him before!" Temari yelled. Lee smiled widely after he jumped away. Lee when in for what he thought was the final attack. Lee threw Gaara into the air then jumped after him. He wrapped Gaara in bandages so he couldn't move.

"Wind Lotus!" Lee shouted. Gaara was slammed head first into the ground. The bandages unraveled to reveal a broken Gaara. Just after Lee realized it Gaara wrapped Lee in sand.

"Sand Coffin." Gaara said coldly. Gaara crushed Lee's legs and one of his arms. Gaara was about to continue when Gekko called.

"That's enough!" Gaara stopped in his tracks and turned away from Lee.

"Oh. I don't think I can heal that." Ronin said. Everyone looked at him.

"Can you relieve his pain?" Ino asked. Ronin shook his head.

"I can patch it up but, he'll still feel pain. I can't do it now though because, of the people."

"Okay that's fine." Nia said.

"The victor is Gaara." Gekko said. "All the victors come down. Everyone jumped down. "Grab a number." Everyone to a number.

"One." Naruto said.

"Two." Neji followed.

"Three." Nia said.

"Four." Midori said.

"Five." Shikamaru sighed.

"Six." Temari grinned.

"Nine." Ronin said.

"Eight." Gaara said.

"Seven." Ren said.

"Ten." Faron said.

"Twelve" Shino said. Gekko wrote something down on paper.

"Naruto vs Neji, Shino vs Kankuro, Shikamaru vs Temari, Ren vs Gaara, and Midori vs Faron, Nia vs Ronin You have two months to train for the final trial." Naruto faced Neji with a stern look.

"I'll show you that you made a mistake today." Naruto growled. Neji only smirked.

"Try me." Neji said. He walked away. Ronin walked to him.

"We need to go, we'll train hard and you'll destroy him." Ronin said. Naruto nodded.

Everyone funneled out of the tower and returned to the village. Ronin and Naruto walked to the hospital to check on Hinata.

Hey guys this is the second instalment of the exams next chapter(s) will be the two months of train. Thanks for following or favoriting.
