22: Chapter 22: First Meeting with GaaraKonohamaru's admiration for Naruto stems from the fact that Konohamaru happened to see Naruto using seduction techniques to make the Third Hokage bleed from his nose.
At this point, he thought that Naruto had a way to defeat his grandfather, who was known as the strongest in the ninja world, so he insisted on worshipping Naruto as his elder brother and learning how to defeat the third generation.
Naruto thought the child was quite likable so he taught him the art of seduction.
At that time, I was afraid that he was too young to understand the essence of this technique, so I took him to the hot spring for an on-site investigation.
Seeing that there were two even smaller followers following Konohamaru, Naruto knew that they were probably sneaking out to play again.
Konohamaru is different from him.Before Naruto went to school, no one ever cared about him or taught him anything.
Konohamaru was arranged to have a teacher to teach him personally by the Third Hokage very early on.If Naruto was not gifted and was just an ordinary person without any special skills, he would definitely be left far behind by these family members.
"Don't just be naughty all day long.Study hard, okay?"
"Hmph!Boss Naruto, you've become annoying too!" Konohamaru angrily broke free from Naruto's hand, turned around and ran away.
Bang.
Two people appeared at the corner of the street, and Konohamaru bumped into one of the men in black.
The man in black was dressed like a black bear, with something wrapped in bandages on his back.
The other one is a blonde female ninja wearing a fishnet outfit, with bare legs and a well-developed upper body.
As soon as Naruto saw how the two were dressed, he knew they were undoubtedly Temari and Kankuro.
"Kid, didn't adults teach you to watch your eyes when walking?I hate annoying kids the most!" Kakuro raised Konohamaru with one hand and said viciously.
Seeing this, Naruto didn't say much and immediately used the instant body technique to appear in front of Kankuro.
Before Kankuro could react, Naruto had already grabbed his wrist.After a little force, Kankuro felt pain and had to let go of Konohamaru.
Naruto didn't let him go easily, and continued to hold his hand and said, "Didn't anyone remind you to keep a low profile in other people's villages?Otherwise, you will die!"
Naruto at this moment displayed a speed and strength far beyond his own, and his words at this moment frightened Kankuro so much that he dared not say anything for a moment.
"Wow!What a handsome boy!" Temari was not angry at all because her companion was restrained by someone.Instead, she just looked at Naruto with stars in her eyes.
Naruto's superior taijutsu skills, flamboyant red hair, and cold words instantly captivated her.
"Be careful when you do things in Konoha next time!" Naruto let go of Kankuro and reminded him again.
"Humph!What a disgrace!"
The sound came from the tree next to them.It turned out to be a red-haired kid with a gourd on his back, hanging upside down under a branch and looking at this side.
Looking at the word "love" written on his forehead, these features combined together must be Gaara.
Looking at Gaara dressed like this in real life, Naruto only felt a strong sense of middle school mentality coming towards him.
But looking at his dark circles that looked like smoky makeup, Naruto knew he was also a pitiful person.Because his seal was far less perfect than his own, he was afraid to sleep all year round to prevent the one-tailed Shukaku from controlling his body.
"Isn't this embarrassing enough?Follow me!" Gaara ordered.
Although he was the youngest, Kankuro obviously did not dare to disobey his orders and immediately followed behind him and prepared to leave.
"Wait, looking at your forehead protectors, you are from the Sand Village, right?Although the Fire Nation and the Wind Nation are allies now, you shouldn't appear in Konoha so casually, right?" Sakura stepped forward and questioned.
Because Naruto is here, she has the confidence to face the three opponents.
"It seems you don't know yet!This is a pass.We are Genin from the Sand Ninja and we came here to take part in the Chunin Exam." Temari stepped forward to explain.
"What's your name, the one with red hair?" Temari looked at Naruto.
"Uzumaki Naruto!" Naruto replied calmly.
"My name is Temari.Come and play with me when you have time!" Temari smiled charmingly.
Naruto couldn't help but glance at her fishing net and quickly said to himself: "Don't be moved, don't be moved, I have Hinata and that's enough!"
At this moment in the Hokage Building, the Third Hokage was gathering a group of leading jonin.
"I believe you can guess why I called you here.The selection of Chunin is about to begin.Please register the candidates you think meet the requirements, starting with Kakashi." The third generation said.
"Team Seven Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno, I, Kakashi, recommend you to take the Chunin Exams."
"Isn't it too early for them to take part in the Chunin Exam now?They have just graduated, and their experience and strength are far from enough to participate in the Chunin selection!" Iruka immediately objected.He was worried that his students would get into trouble because of this.
"I understand your concerns, but they are much stronger now than you think, especially Naruto.His strength is even greater than that of your teacher!" Kakashi comforted.
"I still object!They have no formal mission experience at all.I think it's too early for them!Hokage-sama, please reconsider."
"Iruka!Your worry is good, but children grow up much faster than you think, so don't worry!" The third generation knew the strength of Naruto and Sasuke, so he was not worried.
Seeing the third generation say this, Iruka felt relieved and stopped trying to stop him.
Afterwards, Hong and Asuma also signed up all the members of their teams.
Ding ding ding.
The three kunai hit the bull's eye accurately.
It turned out that Lee, Tenten and Neji, who had not been seen for a long time, were training in the woods.
"Hey, have you heard?This Chunin Exam is the first time in five years that new Genin will participate, and everyone has signed up!" Li said to the two.
"How is that possible!This is just something those jonin are forcing people to do for the sake of face."Right!" Tiantian analyzed.
"Not necessarily.After all, an elite ninja like Kakashi has signed up for the entire team.Given his fame, he shouldn't do anything rash."
"And my friend Uzumaki Naruto is also in his class.He is very strong." Li did not forget to promote him to his good friend.
"Then I'll have to see for myself!Let him hope he doesn't have to face me, or he'll regret it." Neji said confidently.
"Haha, then I can tell you in advance, Naruto's physical skills are not necessarily worse than yours.He has been training with Teacher Kai before." Li doesn't know Naruto's ninjutsu skills yet.
Neji naturally scoffed at this.He was very confident in his own abilities and didn't believe that anyone of his age could catch up with him.
At this moment, Neji felt that Uchiha Sasuke, who had always been called a genius, could barely be considered his opponent.In his eyes, all bloodlines except those with the Byakugan and Sharingan were inferior and looked down upon.
