Breaking it up just made it sound better.

Back to the story.

Minato said, "Well done to all the ninja that have passed the second round but due to there being 21 ninja still here there will be preliminary matches in order to cut the group of you in half. Hayate care to take over."

Suddenly a new Jonin arrived

Hayate said, "Ok first match Sasuke Uchiha Vs Yoroi Akado

Kakashi walked over to Sasuke and whispered, "try not to use any chakra if that curse seal shows I will pull you out of the Chunin exam got it."

Sasuke nodded as everyone left leaving him and the sound ninja

Hayate said, "Ok begin."

Yoroi charged at Sasuke his hands glowing blue

Hinata said, "That jutsu It drains chakra."

Naruto said, "This should be interesting."

Sakura shouted, "Go SASUKE KICK HIS BUTT!"

Kakashi said, "Look."

Sasuke freed himself from Yoroi and sent the sound ninja flying into the air he jumped up kicking him in the back further and further into the air Sasuke moved above Yoroi and slammed his foot down sending the ninja to the ground out cold.

Hayate said, "Winner Sasuke Uchiha."

Sasuke suddenly collapsed holding his shoulder.

Minato nodded to Kakashi as Kakashi moved behind Sasuke and took him away. Two new ninja arrived next to Sasuke and Kakashi one of them removed his hood revealing to be Itachi who walked over and stood next to Kakashi's team.

Sakura said, "Is Sasuke going to be ok."

Naruto said, "Don't worry Kakashi will deal with it."

Itachi walked over towards Naruto

Itachi said, "Sakura don't worry I will not let anything happen to my brother he will be ok."

Hayate announced, "Ok second Match Shino Aburame Vs Zaku Abumi."

Itachi said, "This should be good but I don't like Zaku's chances."

Sakura asked, "Why is that?"

Hinata said, "Look."

Sakura looked down to see a mass swarm of bugs surrounding Zaku

Zaku shouted, "Sound wave explosion!"

Zaku waited for the attack suddenly he screamed in pain as his arms started to bulge

Shino said, "I plugged up both holes not just one I wouldn't be that foolish to let your other arm even though its in that state slip my mind."

Hayate said, "Shino Aburame is the Winner.

Itachi said, "See what I meant."

Hayate shouted, "Next match Misumi Tsurugi Vs Kankuro."

Itachi smirked and said, "Hinata care to activate your Byakugan."

Hinata did so and grinned.

Naruto asked, "What am I missing."

Shinato said, "Watch the match and you will find out."

Naruto looked down to see Misumi crushing Kankuro suddenly Kankuro snapped in two revealing to be a puppet the mummified puppet on the ground suddenly moved to show it was the real Kankuro. The Puppet that Misumi was near suddenly sprung to life and started to crush the sound ninja knocking him out cold.

Hayate said, "Winner Kankuro."

Hinata said, "Hiding in the puppet it was a good tactic but now it will not work on anyone else."

Itachi nodded

Hayate said, "Ok fourth match Temari Vs Tenten."

Itachi Whispered, "Bad match up."

Naruto turned around and asked, "Why?"

Itachi said, "Watch."

Tenten threw a barrage of Kunai at Temari who just blew them all away like it was nothing Temari then moved sending Tenten into the air she landed on her back on Temari's fan knocking her out.

Hayate said, "Ok fifth match Shikamaru Naara Vs Kin Tsuchi."

Itachi said, "This should be interesting."

Hinata said, "Let's see what Shikamaru can do."

Shikamaru looked at Kin and said, "Troublesome why do I have to fight a girl."

Kin threw a barrage of needles at Shikamaru who dodged them effortlessly

Shikamaru said, "Shadow possession jutsu."

Shikamaru captured Kin in his Shadow jutsu the Shikamaru moved his head back forcing Kin's head to smack into the wall knocking her out.

Hayate said, "Six match Gaara VS Lee."

Naruto said, "I wonder if he is going to take his waits off."

Kakashi arrived and said, "Watch and find out."

Sakura asked, "Is Sasuke Ok?"

Kakashi said, "He is fine."

Lee charged towards Gaara who sent Lee crashing back with a sand arm.

Gaara said, "Sand Shiriken."

Lee dodged the sand attack and moved in closer to Gaara Lee was about to aim a Kick to Gaara's face when Gaara's sand shield blocked the attack and threw Lee across the room.

Lee charged again at Gaara who sent multiple sand arms out forcing Lee to dodge multiple strikes as he closed in. Suddenly Lee jumped back throwing two weights at Gaara who dodged the attack with ease the weights landed creating a small crater.

Suddenly Lee was sent into the air by a sand pillar but before the sand spears could strike lee moved faster and closed in on Gaara.

Gaara's sand Shield was up but it wasn't fast enough Lee sent Gaara into the air and slammed him back down on the ground

Lee said, "Gaara you are strong but I am stronger."

Gaara said, "Not really no I haven't even begun."

Gaara stood up to show the sand armour was repairing itself all over Gaara

Gaara moved four streams of Sand grabbing Lee sending him crashing into the ceiling leaving him to fall down out cold.

Hayate said, " Gaara is the winner now seventh Match Hinata Vs Kiba."

Kiba and Hinata both came down to the battle ground.

Hinata activated her Byakugan."

Kiba said, "If I attack you at a fast speed and get out of the way just as fast I should win."

Hinata said, "Sorry Kiba but you can't say that until you try."

Kiba shouted, "Fang over fang."

Hinata smirked she was expecting this.

Kiba headed towards her Hinata spun around sending Kiba crashing through a wall.

Hayate said, "Match..."

Kiba came back into the room his old wound had opened his arm was bleeding.
Kiba charged towards Hinata who dodged the attack and knocked Kiba out cold.

Hayate said, "Hinata is the winner..."

Two medical ninja came in and took Kiba away.

Hinata went up to the stand Naruto hugged Hinata and Kissed her smiling.

Hayate said, "Next Match Ino VS Naruto."

Ino and Naruto headed out of the stands and stood in front of each other Kunai drawn.

Both jumped back throwing the Kunai

Naruto said, "Ino I am not going to hold back so give me your all."

Ino said, "I wouldn't have it any other way."

Naruto dodged Ino's attacks one after another suddenly Naruto was trapped he couldn't move

Ino said, "Like my string trap now you can't move."

Naruto Asked, "What are you going to do?"

Ino answered, "Mind transfer Jutsu."

Both Ino and Naruto froze.

In Naruto's head.

Ino was standing in front of a massive cage.

Ino said, "Hello?"

The demon inside roared baring its teeth.

Ino screamed as a claw came towards her

Naruto appeared blocking the claw with a hand.

Shinato stood at the side watching holding down a laugh. Ino looked around to see the man trying not to laugh. She looked back at Naruto who smiled.

Naruto asked, "Ino are you ok?"

Back out of Naruto's mind

Ino screamed and collapsed. Naruto stood tall.

Hayate said, "Match over."

Hinata shouted, "Well done Naruto."

Two medical Ninja entered carrying Ino away.

Hayate said, "Next Match Sakura Vs Neji "

Sakura and Neji arrived on the stadium.

Sakura and Neji circled each other.

Neji said, "Just give up your no match for me."

Sakura said, "No."

Sakura neared Neji and the jumped away.

Neji asked, "How long can evade me Sakura?"

Sakura charged towards Neji who smiled he had provoked her Neji moved Striking Sakura four times in the arms and legs finely in the chest Sakura collapsed spitting blood.

Sakura was out cold.

Naruto said, "What a bad Match up."

Hayate said, "Next Match Theresa V Dozu."

Dozu and Theresa walked down Dozu was suddenly struck out cold in one hit by Theresa

Hayate said, "Theresa wins. Next match Ricky Vs Sparky."

The two lightning village ninja arrived down onto the stadium.

Ricky and Sparky stare each other down.

Sparky said, "You're a pathetic Ninja you should drop out."

Ricky said, "And what let a crack pot like you become a Chunin please your embarrassing yourself. You respect no one. Like hell I lose to you."

Sparky said, "Don't make me laugh I am going to beat you then I'm going to…"

Sparky was sent crashing down to the ground he quickly got up to find his mouth was bleeding.

Ricky said, "You discuss me you Sick Asshole."

Sparky said, "Ha your first swear well done."

Ricky said, "Finely your first clean joke."

Sparky said, "Fuck you."

Ricky said, "and your back to your usual self."

Sparky threw three Kunai Ricky dodged them all Ricky moved towards Sparky

Ricky whispered, "Lightning falcon drop."
