After transforming, I became the wife of all Naruto fans.

Chiba was truly amazed by Orochimaru's skill in seducing people; he was just too good at it.

However, having survived this ordeal without being abducted by Orochimaru, Chiba's gains were still immense.

With the Wind Release scroll annotated by Orochimaru, and later obtaining some of White Fang's notes from Kakashi, Chiba finally had a clear idea of ​​what to do next with the Wind Release: Sword Technique.

It will take some time to finalize it.

However, the Chunin Exams arrived first.

The live stream started, and the three members of Team 7 reunited outside the Ninja Academy.

The only difference was that Sasuke now carried a ninja sword at his waist.

Naruto, who had always paid close attention to Sasuke, keenly noticed this.

"Hey, Sasuke, why are you carrying a sword just like Chiba?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Well..."

Sasuke and Chiba exchanged a smile.

The reason Sasuke carried a sword is naturally because he learned a lot of swordsmanship from Chiba.

However, there's no need to explain this to Naruto specifically.

"It's just for the sake of the battle!" Sasuke replied casually.

"Is that so?" Naruto looked confused, his suspicious gaze shifting back and forth between Sasuke and Chiba, his nose still gently sniffing the air. "But why do I smell a lie in this?"

Naruto muttered softly, "Is it just my imagination?"

"Uh..." Naruto's keen perception made Sasuke break out in a cold sweat.

Chiba was also speechless. Naruto, who was usually so careless, was only so perceptive when it came to Sasuke.

She even suspected that Naruto would be able to tell even if Sasuke changed his lipstick color.

Seeing Naruto like this, the comments section was filled with amusement:

"Chiba & Sasuke: Want to guess (dances) who wasn't invited to this special training (sways)? Is it you (points and laughs)!"

Naruto: I suspect I'm being bullied in an American style, but I have no proof!

Naruto: Slurp! This smell... it's the smell of a lie! Sasuke, Senba!

"Haha, but to be honest, Naruto seems to be paying a little too much attention to Sasuke, doesn't he?"

"Upstairs, is this the first time you've noticed something's off about those two? With Qianyu's looks, neither of these two brothers is interested! I don't even know if we're the only ones who like Qianyu."

"Is that so? (Naruto: Sasuke, don't turn around, it's me!)"

"Great, you've learned it! Go use it on your good buddy!"

"..."

"...These people, 6!"

Qianyu simply couldn't bear to look at the current barrage of comments.

Fortunately, after the minor incident, everyone quickly entered the Chunin Exams venue.

But when they stepped onto the second floor, what they saw was not Xiao Li pretending to be a pig every day, or the two best friends, Shen Yue Chu Yun and Gang Zi Tie, pretending to be children, but a broken door and half of a collapsed wall.

The doorplate number 201 hung forlornly on the wall that was now only half intact.

"Huh, what's going on here?" Naruto exclaimed in astonishment at the state of classroom 201.

"Is there a fight taking place here?!"

After observing his surroundings, Sasuke made this judgment.

"However, such massive destruction would probably require a fire-style technique. Wouldn't that person be afraid of dying if they used a fire-style technique in such a confined space?"

Sasuke frowned slightly, as did Chiba.

The appearance of these ruins indicates that the plot has changed again!

This time, Izumo and Kotetsu stopped someone they shouldn't have stopped—there were still skilled opponents in the Chunin Exams!

What Qianyu couldn't understand was, where did this fire-style master come from at this point in time?

"It's not Fire Release!" a very energetic voice interjected.

"Not Fire Release?" Sasuke looked in the direction of the voice and found a man wearing a green bodysuit, with thick eyebrows and a hairstyle similar to a kappa.

Xiao Li said, "According to the intelligence we've gathered here, that person used a strange kind of earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of escape technique)."

"Earth Release?" Sasuke was even more puzzled by this answer: "Are you sure?"

Because Earth Release is the most obvious of the five escape techniques, whenever it is used, there will inevitably be soil residue on the ground.

The ground is just a little dustier now.

"I'm not sure!" Lee shook his head. "That's why I came to find you! Uchiha... Sasuke!"

His gaze was intense: "As an Uchiha, you should be able to tell at a glance whether it's Fire Release or not!"

"Hmm..." Hearing Lee's words, Sasuke looked at the collapsed wall again and examined it carefully.

After a moment, he concluded, "It's definitely not Fire Release; there are no signs of burning or explosion from Fire Release. However, it doesn't look like Earth Release either..."

Sasuke looked at Chiba, seeking advice, and said, "Chiba, what do you think?"

Qianyu arrived at the front of classroom 201 and carefully examined the damage marks on the wall. She agreed, "It's definitely not Earth Release. Earth Release items are generally quite soft, and the marks from the impact are those of a blunt object."

“And here!” Qianyu pointed to the broken edge of the wall: “It’s too smooth. It seems to have been smashed and crushed by something extremely hard!”

"Even if it really is Earth Release, it is an extremely special kind of Earth Release, which has the property of being hard."

Qianyu looked at Xiaoli: "In the information you collected, is there any information about the color of the escape technique that person used?"

"Well..." Xiao Li was at a loss and could only look to the side for help.

On the other side, Hyuga Neji and Tenten walked over.

“It’s red!” Neji answered Chiba’s question helplessly: “Li, didn’t we agree that we were just staying here to gather other people’s opinions?”

"Sorry!" Xiao Li turned his head away sheepishly, then looked at Qian Yu with a puzzled expression.

"Hey, no way! This Xiao Li..."

Seeing the faint shyness on Xiao Li's face, and recalling the original plot, Qian Yu felt a knot in her heart, and a very bad premonition suddenly arose.

Her face remained expressionless, but she quietly stepped back, shielding Naruto in front of her.

However, Naruto was simply too short. He couldn't block Lee's view at all.

After staring at Qianyu for a few seconds, Xiao Li strode over to her.

At this moment, Naruto had not yet noticed that Chiba was hiding behind him.

"Um..." Naruto wanted to ask Lee what he wanted as he walked towards him.

But Rock Lee completely ignored Naruto standing between the two of them: "My name is Rock Lee, and your name is Chiba, right?"

"Please go out with me, Chiyu! I'll protect you until I die!"

After saying that, Xiao Li gave a thumbs up, grinned, and his gleaming teeth flashed brightly under the light.

Faced with this light, Qianyu seemed to have been struck by Garen's whisper, falling silent and vulnerable.

In my heart, a thousand curses mixed with countless emotions surged within me.

However, what was even more intense than Qianyu's inner turmoil were the comments on the screen.
