Traveling through Naruto: I am Haruno Sakura

Naruto grumbled, "You're really late. I thought you were afraid to compete with me and didn't dare to come."

Sasuke was in a good mood and looked at Naruto, "Did you win the first game?"

Naruto was motivated, "Of course."

Sasuke smiled, "Don't be so careless, you big idiot... Where's Sakura?"

Sakura nodded. "Is that a win?"

Naruto glanced at Gaara in the stands, "Don't lose to that guy... I want to fight you too!"

Sakura watched the interaction between the two and thought... ...absolutely amazing! I think you two should get married right here! He runs away, he chases, he can't get away even if he has wings!

Shikamaru glanced at the audience, which was buzzing with noise when he saw Sasuke coming. He couldn't help but complain, "I'm just a warm-up guy... But there's nothing I can do, I'm also looking forward to this game..."

Shiranui Genma looked at Gaara in the stands, "Gaara, come down."

Sakura patted Naruto beside her and said, "Let's go. We have to leave the game to them..."

Shikamaru muttered, "Please... take the stairs slowly when you come up."

Naruto watched the two of them leave, but he was very unconvinced by what Shikamaru said, and said as he walked away: "What's wrong? Are you afraid that I will push you down?"

In the stairwell, Naruto walked in front, "Hurry up..."

Shikamaru didn't care, "Nothing good will happen in a hurried life..."

Sakura saw Naruto stop and a look of fear on his face, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Following Naruto's line of sight, Gaara slowly walked out, and in front of him stood two ninjas. One of the ninjas said, "A competition as low-level as the Chunin Exam is best suited for gambling. Several daimyos came here for this purpose."

Another ninja then said, "So, I lose this match."

At this time, the gourd sieve behind Gaara made a slight sound, but the ninja was still unyielding, "Hey, hey, answer me..."

"Are you too scared to speak?"

The sieve on Gaara's gourd suddenly burst open, and a cloud of yellow sand gushed out of the gourd, devouring the two ninjas completely...

Sakura walked forward slowly, "Gaara..."

Gaara glanced at Sakura and said nothing, then glanced at Naruto and Shikamaru, and slowly walked between the two of them...

After Gaara left, Naruto and Shikamaru sat on the steps together. Shikamaru murmured, "If it weren't for the two people in front of us... we might have been killed... I've never seen a guy who kills without hesitation. Sasuke is also dangerous..."

Naruto was unusually silent. Sakura sighed, "Now is not the time to worry about this. I feel their purpose is not simple... Do you know the tailed beasts?"

Shikamaru couldn't help but ask, "Tailed Beast?"

Sakura glanced at Naruto and explained, "There are nine tailed beasts in total. One of them, the Takushi, is sealed in Gaara's body. It is said to be a tanuki cat covered in yellow sand. It has the strongest defense among the nine tailed beasts."
