Chapter 42: (Sasuke Debut)

Hayate turned towards the genins and spoke.

"There's something.i'd like you all to do before the third exam. And that is a preliminary to the third exam, with participation in the main battle on the line. Because. this time around, perhaps the first and second exams were easy. there are a few too many people left you see. Thus, in accordance with the rules of the chuunin exams. A preliminary will be held in order to reduce the number advancing. As Hokage-Sama had said before, many guests will be coming to the third exam. So, we can't have long pointless matches and our time is limited as well. Therefore, those of you not in top physical condition."

'Coygh Cough Cough'

'Hey is he okay?' Some genins thought as they saw hayate cough badly. "Excuse me!" Hayate apologized, after which he continued. "Those of you who wish to drop out, please speak up now. The prelims will begin immediately, so. I forgot to mention this, but it will be individual battles from now on. It is your decision, so feel free to raise your hands and drop out," Hayate concluded.

At this moment, a man in the group of genins raised his hand. "Excuse me. I'll quit." he said.

"Let's see. You're Yakushi Kabuto of the Leaf v
Village, correct? Then, you may step back." "Yes" Kabuto confirmed as he left the place. "i've seen that face quite a few times. As i recall, I think he dropped out of the main battle before, as well. What in the world is he thinking?" Hiruzen spoke his thoughts aloud.

"Anko" morino nudged her upon which anko started flipping through her papers. "Yakushi kabuto. According to the data, he has failed six straight times."H iruzen looked at anko and asked.

"What about his background?" Anko replied. "From his time in the academy, he was a student who did not really stand out, and his grades were ordinary. He finally passed the graduation exam on his third try. After that, as for the missions he carried out, two c-ranks and fourteen d-ranks."

"it's not a battle record to write home about. However." Anko paused as she looked at hiruzen.

"It's about before the academy. Do you remember the story about the one boy brought back from the Kikyo Pass battle?" "I remember. As i recall, i heard an enemy boy survivor at the battlefield was taken back by a Jounin from the medical unit. So he's that boy? Hiruzen asked as he watched the departing back of kabuto as he left the hall.

"Now then, we will begin the preliminaries." The preliminaries to come will be one on one individual battles. In other words, actual battle format. Since the one from before left. There are now exactly twenty people, so we will conduct ten battles. The winners will be able to advance to the third exam. There are no rules at all. You will fight until someone dies, collapses... or admits defeat. And please admit defeat right away if you don't want to die. However, in case i judge that a match is over. 'cough' Err. I don't want to needlessly increase the dead bodies, So i will intervene and stop the match or something to that effect."

"What holds the key to your destinies is." Hayate stopped as he turned towards anko. Anko nodded as she spoke into the radio. "Open it!"

A stone on the wall ascended, revealing a giant black screen. "This. The names of two foes will be randomly selected and be displayed on this electronic signboard. Now then, let's get straight down to it. And announce the two names for the first battle."

The screen flashed as the names kept cycling. All the genins felt nervous at the moment until. The screen displayed

< Akado Yoroi vs. Uchiha Sasuke >

"I couldn't ask for more" Yoroi smirked. Kakashi made his way to the balcony he stopped momentarily by Me and said, "Sasuke. I know that someone placed a sealing technique over your Mark to help keep it in check, however, it's dangerous if you overexert yourself. If the Mark flares up, it could endanger your life. Try to finish the fight as soon as you can and if you can help it, don't use the Sharingan". I smirked and then asked with a serious face. "What mark?"

Kakashi then said, "Anyway, If it flares up, I'll end the fight." I looked at him with a smile and said "If you are talking about the curse mark that Orochimaru tried to put on me, then let me tell you. He failed." That said, I walked away to the stage. Kakashi looked shocked and thought 'I will ask him later about it'. and started to watch the match. For the first battle, akado yoroi and uchiha sasuke have been selected. No objections right" hayate tried to confirm. "none" both yoroi and I answered at the same time.

"Now then, we will begin the first battle.'Cough'. Everyone other than the two foes, please move to the upper area." Hayate gestured towards the standing area above 5 metres from the floor. Now then, please begin."

Orochimaru watched intently in anticipation. I knew he had specifically planted Yoroi in the Chunin exams so he could fight Me. He wanted him to use his unique ability to absorb chakra and drain me of my chakra in an attempt to have Me rely on the Curse Mark.

Yoroi weaved some hand signs together before his palms lit up in blue.I Said, "Today I Will Show You My Orginal Sword Technique The One I Created Look Closely Specially You Naruto You Will Learn This Too"I Then Bend My Body Forward and My Left Leg Behind , I Grab Hold Of My Sword And open It *Click * the I Take A Deep Breath and Release It Then Suddenly a "Boom* and A Flash Of Purple and A Shockwave.I am Standing Behind Yoroi and Muttered Lound Enough For Everyone To Hear , "Kenjutsu Style:Purple Lightning Thunderclap And Falsh"Yoroi found his body paralyzed and Vision Darkening I Sheath My Sword and  walked away from the stage. Hayate called Yoroi, but got no response And Fell Down. So he went near him and touched him. As soon as he was touched, Blood Gushed Out From His Arm.

Everyone looked gobsmaked. Naruto then said "Nice win Sasuke". Hayate concluded "The winner of the first match by knock out Uchiha Sasuke." Orochimaru frowned thinking 'How?' Kakashi then walked towards me and said "Follow me". I smiled and said. "Kakashi sensei? can't it wait? I still need to watch my teammates win their matches. If you are worried about what happened in the forest, dont worry. We tricked Orochimaru." Kakashi nodded in understanding and said "We will have to talk later then. Tell me all that happened." I nodded and we started watching the arena.
