The Legend of Hope Chapter 4: Prelim Round
The five day limit had passed by. A lot of Genin had made it out. The third test was a tournament. But being that there was more then 10, a prelim round had to take place. Here are the results thus far.
Sasuke Defeated Leaf Genin
Temari Defeated Tenten
Shikimaru Defeated Kin
Shino Defeated Zaku
Ino VS Sakura ended in a double KO, and Rikku was supposed to fight winner, and thus winning that match.
Kankuro Defeated Leaf Genin.
Now, it was Naruto's match against Kiba. Kiba was a dog user, with his trusty companion, Akamaru. It was a brutal back and forth battle, until Kiba transformed Akamaru into another Kiba. They thrashed Naruto. But when hey got cocky, Naruto smirked.
"You don't realize Kiba. We've been friends for quite some time. But in the end, my ambition to win, it to powerful. Since you want to have a partner assist you, I think I shall as well" Naruto said. He summoned his staff, before waving it around, and three ice blocks came out.
"Akira. The Goddes Shiva, which I've renamed. My Icy aeon, I need your help" Naruto said. Akira came out from the ice. She smiled.
"Master Naruto. What is thy bidding?" Akira asked. Naruto pointed. Akira got into a fighting stance.
The two teams fought each other. Akira let Akamaru-Kiba try to get the best of her, but that was only a ploy, as she kept casting ice spells on herself to heal herself.
"Master Naruto. It's time" Akira said. Naruto appeared beside her, as she sent a massive icy wind in the direction of a very beat up Akamaru and Kiba. They were frozen.
"That was Diamond Dust. Let's finish them" Naruto said. They both snapped their fingers, and the ice exploded, knocking both Akamaru and Kiba out.
"Winner. Naruto Uzumaki" The Proctor said. Akira vanished at that. The next match, was battle of cousins. Neji VS Hinata. Hinata lost, when with the power of the Hyuuga taijutsu, Gentle Fist/Jyuuken, overcame her, when Neji struck her heart. She didn't get up in time, but she recovered, quickly after Naruto was pissed off at Neji.
"Naruto. You're pathetic. You needed a damn aeon to help you. Your fate was sealed at that point" Neji said. Naruto spat in Neji's face.
"Don't give me that crap. I'll show you yet. You best better pray to yevon, that you don't face me, or I'll unleash a power far greater the Akira. YOU DON'T KNOW ME! I will brutalize you" Naruto said. Neji wiped the spit off his face, and simply smirked.
Dosu defeated Chouji, and Gaara, a demon carrier like Naruto, nearly killed Lee. The prelims were over. Here are the third exam's order.
Naruto VS Neji
Sasuke VS Gaara
Shino VS Kankuro, winner faces Rikku
Temari VS Shikimaru, winner faces Dosu.
