Naruto finally got down to the arena to face Kiba. With their intense match and the struggles from both sides, Naruto finally ended up winning his match. He, too, showed sportsmanship and helped Kiba and Akamaru get back on their feet and paws as they shook hands and then parted ways back to their side of the stands. Next up is Hinata Hyuga against her cousin Neji Hyuga. Hinata got off Kaze's lap, then she turned around to face him, leaned close and kissed his lips, signifying that they were now a couple as Kaze's face went super red. "Oh wow...Go get him, Hinata." Kaze said as he was very dizzy from Hinata's sudden kiss. His reaction made Hinata giggle, and the others just awed them except Tsunade, who was now having a turn of being overprotective and had a piece of her clothing in her mouth, and her eyes were red. "Kaze... Hinata!." Tsunade started as they looked at her with fear, and everyone else was the same. "No dating until you're both thirteen," she said as the two rapidly nodded. Hinata darted away to the arena. Once both cousins face each other, Neji intends to prove himself to his clan, while Hinata will try to win this match for Kaze. Still, once the battle began, Neji became a loose cannon and hurt Hinata badly. At the same time, Hinata stands her ground against her cousin, but seeing Hinata hurt makes Kaze boil in anger. He can't do anything but watch as he stands up, approaches the edge of the stands, and grips tightly to the railing.
After a long struggle, Neji won the match, and Hinata was severely hurt and struggled to get up. Neji came close to her, ready to put her lights out for good, but before the other senseis interfered, Kaze jumped from where he was standing and sucker-punched Neji, knocking him to the ground. "Is that how you treat family, by almost killing them," Kaze said as he was trying not to lose his temper. Neji wanted to get up, but the battle against Hinata left him tired and unable to move. Hiashi Hyuga and Hizashi Hyuga came down to the arena and stopped just above Neji, "Don't interfere, boy." Hiashi said as he was going to walk over and take Hinata back with him, but Kaze threw a kunai just at his feet, stopping him while Hizashi picked up his son and watched the scene before him, "News flash, that is not how a family member should be treated old man." Kaze said as everyone in the arena gasped. Tsunade wasn't sure what to make of the situation as she stood up and walked to the railings and stood still with her arms crossed and ready to jump in to help her only flesh and blood. Kaze went over to Hinata and picked her up in his arms. "Hinata is staying with us; I don't think she should be with a family that was planning to let her die," Kaze said as he turned around and walked away with Hinata, taking her to the hospital. Hiashi was about to attack Kaze but stopped and looked up at the stands, feeling Tsunade's Chakra flaring up. "Attack my 'SON', and I will make you pay," Tsunade said as this shocked everyone hearing who Kaze belonged to. Even Lord Third and Fourth were surprised by this news, but Hiashi backed away and returned to the stands with his brother.
Hanabi left stands from her clan and rushed to her sister's side while the next match was Gaara against Rock Lee, the match was surprising, to say the least with Rock Lee being shown he's faster without his weights on him getting good hits onto Gaara but at the end of it Gaara is the winner of his match but with his tailed beast seals being properly fixed with his Mother around he doesn't damaged Rock Lee than his original counterpart did Rock Lee is still conscious he would be only sent to the hospital with only a broken arm and barely to walk, Gaara just like his family showed sportsmanship and used his sand to help Rock Lee and taking him to the hospital to get checkout but once the arena was cleared the next match could not begin with Dosu Kinunta against Choji Akimichi, with the match begins and being an excellent match to watch Dosu came out as the winner of the match and finally there's a three-way match for the preliminaries finals which includes Kaze, Sora Uchiha, and Menma once the names were announced both Sora and Menma went to the arena where they wait ten minutes for Kaze to return and if he doesn't return within those minutes he is out of the preliminaries and it would be just Sora against Menma, Kaze had left a clone with Hinata and Hanabi after he left the hospital and her to rush back to the arena and with less than three minutes left Kaze had managed to return to the arena and he looks ready to take on either one but Kaze would sense that Menma could be a problem since he always rely on the Nine-Tail's Chakra too much that Kaze and Sora would need to team up to take down Menma or they will lose their chances to be in the finals.
