Without needing explanation or looking any further, the audience could already predict what would happen next.

As expected, the lightning bolt, trailing a dazzling tail of flame, roared down from the sky. The power it contained was so great that even some well-trained ninjas felt an overwhelming sense of awe and fear, let alone ordinary residents.

In an instant, the situation reversed.

The one now trapped in the prison is the little princess of Sunagakure, and the thunder that descended upon the world is the gift her opponent returned.

Temari, barely managing to steady herself, stared intently at the lightning bolt crashing down in her face, her eyes flashing with astonishment and resentment.

A quick glance revealed that all around were solid, towering rock walls, tightly sealed, leaving no room for escape.

The only exit is the unsealed dome.

But the lightning that filled the field of vision...

Temari subconsciously swallowed, and the three-star fan in her hand began to rise again.

But in the end, he put it down again.

The remaining chakra within her body left her with no confidence that she could defeat this raging energy ball, and she didn't know if this attack would ever end.

A real sense of powerlessness rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Enough, Temari, just admit defeat!"

An urgent roar came from beside my ear; judging from the tone, it should be Kankuro's voice.

This warning immediately made the little princess of Sunagakure inclined to obey.

But just as he was about to utter the words of surrender, a strange sense of pride and resentment surged up from the depths of his heart.

I represent Sunagakure!

The Sand Village, which is on par with Konoha, no longer had the same scene as in the second preliminary round, where only their respective team leaders were present to watch.

Today, there are also dignitaries and powerful figures from various countries, as well as ninja leaders from various forces. How can she possibly admit defeat under such circumstances?

She began to exert force in her wrist, and her slightly pale lips tightened at that moment. She was going to make a final stand for herself and for the honor of Sunagakure.

However, just as the lightning approached the ground, it suddenly seemed to have eyes and its trajectory was abruptly reversed, slamming into the rock walls. In an instant, the exploding energy was like a rising tide, wave after wave, with no end in sight.

Under such intimidation, Temari slowly put down the three-star fan in her hand and her pride.

She knew that this was yet another instance of the other party holding back.

The first time was at the beginning, when I underestimated my opponent.

"The victor is Yakumo Kurama of Konoha Village."

Genma Shiranui's voice rang out after the raging thunder.

Even after the rock and earth prison was removed, the little princess of Sunagakure, who was revealed to the public, still maintained the strength to fight. However, it was clear to everyone that this was because the frail girl had held back.

A strange resonance arose in the hearts of many viewers: if she wanted, this torrent of lightning strikes could very well continue until the end of all the matches.

Temari did not refute this result.

After giving a slight nod to her opponent, she headed toward the lounge.

He didn't plan to leave immediately, because after composing himself, another task awaited him.

"Yakumo,"

"Kurama Yakumo!"

"The Kurama Clan!"

"........"

After a brief silence, the entire arena erupted in a surge of enthusiastic gasps.

Compared to the confusion and doubt of the first match, this time they truly witnessed the clash between ninjutsu and strategy, and "feasting the eyes" was far from enough!

Of course, what they talk about most, and what will surely be sung about for a while, is the Kurama clan, who possess this terrifying five-sense bloodline limit!

As he put away his easel, Yakumo Kurama slowly bowed to all four sides to express his gratitude for the enthusiastic response from the audience.

Finally, she looked towards the location of her parents and family. In the exchange of glances, she saw the pride and joy in the eyes of her family and clansmen.

At the entrance to the lounge, Uchiha Ara had already stopped.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yakumo Kurama slung his easel over his shoulder and walked toward the other person.

At this point, he had fulfilled all his promises to himself.

Meanwhile, watching the result of the second victory, the middle-aged man wearing a hooded hat in the main stands clapped his hands gently to express his appreciation and congratulations.

"Oh, it seems that Konoha, with its Uchiha and Kurama, will dominate another era."

Taunting words followed.

They didn't seem to have any dissatisfaction with their own genin's defeat.

Chapter 524 For the Sharingan, I'll help you this time, old man.

How could Hiruzen Sarutobi not hear the sarcasm and irony coming from the Fourth Kazekage?

But he had no idea how to respond to that!

The Uchiha clan is a clan that is gradually drifting away from itself, while the Kurama clan has completely tied itself to the former's chariot.

Although this will was not directly expressed in public.

But today,

When Uchiha Ara restored dignity and prestige to his clan and brought this sealed-off clan back to the stage of history, everything was already settled and no words were needed.

As the spiritual pillar of the Sarutobi clan, Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally understood that the clan's prosperity and prominence were the obsession of many of its predecessors and successors.

This is especially true for the Kurama clan, who once had a glorious period.

There are very few clan leaders who are as unambitious as the Senju clan.

Do not,

Perhaps, it should be said that a clan head like Tobirama-sama, capable of dispersing his family throughout Konoha, should emerge.

The glory and return that the Kurama clan has been craving in recent years is something that Konoha has failed to provide for decades, or, to put it more ironically and radically, has not put much effort into giving.

Therefore, after this battle, the Kurama clan truly chose to stand on the side of the Uchiha.

"Kurama Yakumo is older after all, but he has the advantage in terms of chakra reserves."

Even if the Kazekage's praise was tinged with sarcasm, Hiruzen Sarutobi could not simply laugh it off; he would rather remain silent in response.

So after a little deliberation, he used these words to brush off the praise.

With the Uchiha and Kurama clans at its disposal, Konoha is destined to dominate another era.

Of course, such comments still made him feel uncomfortable for a while.

If the younger generations of those two families can truly be used by them and wholeheartedly serve Konoha, then such bold words and such control will surely come true.

but,

He knew perfectly well that this was a realm he could never reach.

“Your little princess’s strength is truly astonishing.”

"At such a young age, he can wield the Three Star Fan and Wind Release ninjutsu with ease; his future is limitless."

After suppressing his inner turmoil, Hiruzen Sarutobi regained his composure and spoke.

This can be considered mutual business flattery.

"hehe."

"Temari is not bad, but she can't compare to your Blood Demon, Uchiha Ara, can she?"

"His reputation is quite impressive."

"Moreover, he is the same age as Temari."

The Fourth Kazekage, veiled in white, responded calmly.

Moreover, his voice already carried a certain mocking tone, as if he were saying to his face: Although your side's Uchiha Ara is very strong, he is not on good terms with the village.

"It seems that Konoha will once again dominate this year's Chunin Exams."

"And the title of 'Number One in the World' will inevitably belong to that person."

When he caught a glimpse of the Third Hokage beside him, who looked like he'd swallowed a fly in silence, he couldn't help but point at the four-character plaque hanging on the main stands and sarcastically remark.

"The competition isn't over yet, so it's best not to make any hasty comments."

"Or perhaps your side has no confidence in your contestant, who is known as the 'Absolute Defense of Sand'?"

If he could, Hiruzen Sarutobi would naturally not want to respond to such blatant sarcasm.

However, the former was ultimately the Kage of Sunagakure, and it just so happened that this was a critical juncture where all sorts of people were mixed together and internal strife had not yet been quelled. He could not ignore the other party's words, nor could he directly show his displeasure.

That's why he singled out Gaara.

I wanted to use this point to respond to the other person's sarcasm.

After all, regardless of whether that guy was the vessel of that calamity monster, one identity was beyond doubt: he was the offspring of the Fourth Kazekage.

However, the instant he blurted it out, Hiruzen Sarutobi realized that he had lost his composure.

If Gaara is indeed the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast, then when the identities of Jinchūriki and the current son of the Kazekage come together, it will inevitably be a very sensitive situation for Rasa.

So he quickly tried to say something else to change the subject.

However, the Fourth Kazekage didn't seem to care about this, and even stated directly:

"Compared to Uchiha Ara, Gaara is still far behind."

"Moreover, if I could, I would really like to see the full extent of his power."

"I wonder if anyone on your side can force out its full strength."

As he said this, the man who symbolized the highest will of Sunagakure turned his gaze to the area, and his eyes began to gleam with danger.

At that moment, that person stood at the entrance to the arena.

Not long ago, that guy had tricked him badly.
