"Kurama Talking"
*action*
As naruto released the seal from Neji, the hyuga was finally able to move, he sighed in slight disappointment as he moved towards the competitors box "hey Neji" naruto called out and the boy turned back "that was an awesome fight, now I see why they call you hyuga prodigy" naruto said "please don't say that, I am no prodigy" Neji said looking down, naruto then put a hand on Neji's shoulder, "prodigy or not, you are hella strong so don't beat yourself up about it" naruto said smiling, Neji looked at naruto in a new light, he out stretched his hand and naruto did the same as they both shook hands "naruto, thank you" Neji said "no problem" naruto responded, then they both went back to their respective places awaiting the next match
"Next match, Sakura Haruno vs Shino Aburame, both contestant please enter the ring" genma said, as naruto entered the competitors box he saw Sakura taking deep breaths to prepare herself for the match, he approached her "Sakura don't worry, I know you can do this" Naruto said encouragingly making Sakura smile "thanks naruto, I needed that, congratulations on your win by the way" Sakura said "thanks, now go win this thing" naruto said as Sakura nodded and went to the fight.
Both competitors faced each others as they waited for the proctor to start the match "are both fighters ready?" Genma asked as both nodded "hajime" with that the fight started, Sakura jumped away from shino's range and was planning her attack 'okay, from what I have read about the Aburame clan, they have control over insects that have chakra syphoning abilities' Sakura thought 'bugs, I hate bugs, the only saving grace for me is that it seems like Shino doesn't have any special physical abilites so if I avoid the bugs I should have a chance' Sakura thought
Shino then walked forward with a hoard of bugs surrounding him, he sent a swarm of bugs towards Sakura forcing her to use evasive maneuvers, as she was dodging, some bugs were able to latch onto her and were slowly sucking away her chakra, Sakura had to slow down because of this and got stuck in a bug ball 'oh no' she thought as the bugs flew around her trapping her and draining her chakra, as they flew around her they were tearing some fabric from the sleeves off her ninja outfit and messing up her hair, Sakura was getting more tired as this affected her due to her small chakra pools 'damn it, I really wish I was someone like naruto or Nemma right now' she thought, she knew she had to get out if that situation fast, so while in the bug ball she weaved some hand signs and said "earth style: earth spikes" she yelled and suddenly large earth spikes protruded from the ground chasing away all the bugs and even killing some.
As sakura was freed, Shino regrouped with his bugs to restrategize for their next offensive move, sakura was no going to allow this, the bugs had already ruined he outfit and her hair and she would be damned if he went any further, so quickly sakura rushed forward with her fist cocked back and delivered a chakra enhanced punch, this one was less than normal due to chakra exhaustion but was still enough to knock out Shino making her the winner
Sakura walked back to the competitor's box while Shino was taken to the infirmary "nice job sakura, I knew you could do it" naruto said "thanks" she said
"Next match, Shikamaru Nara vs Temari of the sand"
(This fight is cannon style, sorry about this but there are more fights that I am going to write and most of you all may already know this one)
"Next match, Nemma Uzumaki Namikaze vs Kankuro of the sand" the proctor said, Nemma got ready for battle until he heard something he did not expect
"I forfeit" Kankuro said, the crowd was silent as Kankuro had lost without even fighting 'that I really weird, why forfeit right before the match' Nemma thought, he sighed in slight disappointment as he was really pumped up to fight in the exams, "hey don't get disappointed, look at it this way, me and you are fighting after Sasuke's match and we'll both be on equal ground so no one else has the advantage" Mito said Putting a hand on Nemma's shoulder "*sigh* I guess you right, by the way, where is Sasuke, his match is about to start" Nemma asked "I don't know" she responded
