Kira's POV
I already had the inside scoop from watching the entire series, so when the Hokage made the announcement, I was one step ahead. Excitement and nerves mingled within me as I pondered my upcoming battle and opponents.
"Yosh! Let's do this!" Naruto's enthusiastic declaration echoed as he led the charge onto the battleground, with us trailing behind. His energy was contagious, and I couldn't help but smile softly, feeling a swell of pride for how much he had accomplished.
Everyone stood apart from each other, but our team and Team 8 remained close, fostering a sense of unity. Ino and Sakura exchanged quick, intense glares, setting the stage for the impending battle.
"Alright! The first match is between... Uchiha Sasuke vs Yoroi Akado," the proctor's voice resounded through the arena. Sasuke visibly tensed, his excitement palpable in his trembling demeanor.
Wanting to offer assistance, I leaned in to advise Sasuke, "Yoroi absorbs chakra upon contact, so watch out." His surprise at my insight was evident as he widened his eyes in response.
"How did you—" Sasuke began, only to be interrupted by the call of his name once more. With a resigned sigh, he acknowledged my warning, nodding before descending into the battlefield.
...
The battle kicked off, with Yoroi initially gaining the upper hand as Sasuke struggled to match his pace. Despite Sasuke heeding my advice and avoiding direct contact, he faltered on a few occasions.
Growing weary, Sasuke faced Naruto's misguided attempt at motivation, but a shift in his focus became apparent as he smirked, diverting his attention away from Naruto.
Channeling his remaining chakra, Sasuke swiftly maneuvered behind Yoroi, unleashing a barrage of punches that left Yoroi unable to retaliate effectively. With a decisive final blow, Sasuke emerged victorious.
"And the victor is Uchiha Sasuke!" the announcer declared. I beamed with pride as Sasuke approached us, his expression adorned with a confident smirk.
"You've done it, Sasuke!" Naruto cheered, receiving a nod of acknowledgment from Sasuke. As Sasuke's eyes met mine, gratitude evident on his face, I simply nodded in return. Sakura congratulated Sasuke warmly, embracing him and praising his remarkable performance.
And with that...
Sasuke, Shino, Kankurō, and a double knockout for Ino and Sakura; Temari, Shikamaru, Neji, Gaara, and Dosu emerged victorious in the intense battles.
As Naruto's moment arrived, the arena announced, "Uzumaki Naruto vs Inuzuka Kiba!" I turned to Naruto, sensing his excitement. "Remember our training; I have faith in your victory," I reassured him with a smile, to which he responded with a confident grin and a nod.
Observing Naruto's progress, I felt hopeful for his success. His growth surpasses that of the anime; I instilled in him speed and quick thinking. I trust he will recall his training and make me proud with a resounding win.
