Thank you

for

watching!

Thank

you.

For the fifth match, Tenten, Tamari, get ready.

I'm so ready. After watching that last match, I'm fired up.

So, this is another getting from the sand village.

Come on, Tenten, you can do it! This should be interesting to watch.

Begin.

Killer Kanoichi and a shaky Shikamaru!

Huh?

All right, Ten -ten, keep her guessing!

Go for it! You've got the power of youth! Come on, Ten -ten, send that girl

to her village on a stretcher! We're right behind you all the way, Ten -ten!

Let's hear it! Two, four, six, eight, who do we appreciate?

Tan -Tan is carefully determining her distance.

Just what I'd expect from her.

She's well positioned to attack or defend.

What are you waiting for?

I did say to begin.

Huh. Guess she's waiting for me to make a move. Big mistake.

Because the first move I make will be the last one you see.

Come on, I don't want this match to be over too quickly.

So why don't you go first?

Come on, girl. Show me what you got.

Okay, if you insist.

Remember, you asked for it.

I missed her?

There's just no way!

What was that? A warm -up exercise?

Or maybe you're a little nervous and it's affected your aim. Is that it?

Perhaps. I was hoping I'd at least work up a sweat.

But forget that idea if this is the best you've got.

What is going on? How could she have missed? It is incredible!

It's impossible.

Tin Tin's aim is perfect.

She always hits her mark.

Not this time she didn't.

She never misses.

There must have been something that made her miss.

Huh?

You know, you can always count on Tamari to put on a good show.

Big deal.

Man, this is embarrassing.

Sand Village wins again.

What are you talking about? The match just started.

It's over.

Give me a break. What makes you so smart?

Why don't you explain it to me so I can understand?

Ah, skip it. If you can't see it, I'm not going to waste my breath.

It's obvious, like he said. This one's over.

I don't get it.

I really don't understand these guys at all.

Okay, stay calm.

Don't let her get to you.

One, two, three.

She must have dodged them somehow.

But if I try a different approach... Look at her measuring her distance.

Here comes her big move.

So that's... That's her secret. That fan she carries.

Okay.

What has she got in that fan of hers?

Take a look.

This is the first moon. There are two more.

When you see all three moons, you'll know.

You've lost the match.

Ten -ten!

Do not play your opponent's game!

Maintain focus!

Maintain focus!

I know, Lee, I know.

Well... I was planning to save this for the finals, not waste it on a

preliminary round.

But it may be now or never.

Huh? She's using that already?

What's with the two scrolls?

What is she planning on doing with them?

It won't work, whatever it is.

Rising Twin Dragons!

many you throw at me.

It's all the same.

Mood number two!

I've got her now!

Moon number three.

Over here.

What?

Now it's my turn.

Tamari's chakra is controlling the vortex.

Huh?

We fought well.

But she'll never escape from that whirlwind.

It's over.

Whoa.

That girl's really ruthless.

Oh, Denton.

Wasn't much of a math.

Kind of boring.

To be able to stop every one of Ten -Ten's attacks like that. I still cannot

believe it. It was impressive, all right.

Jerry!

Yep, it's another win for the Sand Village.

Just like you said it would be. Well, of course, that's why I said it.

Well, looks like we're guaranteed a clean sweep in this round.

This Sand Team is clearly one to be feared.

The winner of the fifth match.

Tamari.

Wait a second!

Hey, nice catch.

What is wrong with you? She may have lost, but that is no way to treat an

opponent who has done her best.

I'll beat it.

And take that sack of garbage with you.

No, Lee!

Lee! Leave her a gang!

What?

Not even close.

You know what? You're as dumb as you look.

What did you say?

Lee! Stop!

Quick, Guy Sensei!

Tamari, forget them.

The match is over, so get up here.

You won. Why are you wasting your time with that pathetic loser and his

ridiculous mentor?

What?

Just calm down, Lee.

A word of warning.

You sand villagers have no idea what Lee is capable of.

Remember, he still hasn't fought yet.

So I'd be careful if I were you.

That kid's crazy picking a fight with them.

Those Dan Village guys are trouble. They're the last people I'd want to go

against. They do look almost unbeatable.

Don't worry, Naruto.

I'm sure you could take him.

Sakura? What? You're all right? I never thought you'd be back so soon.

I'm fine, but never mind me. It's you you should be thinking about.

Huh? Me?

I don't have any injuries. I haven't even fought yet. What I meant was you

want to disgrace yourself after you worked so hard to get here. Think of

Sasuke will say.

Oh, all right.

Stay sharp.

Oh, thanks, by the way.

If you hadn't called out when you did, who knows what would have happened?

If it hadn't been for you, I might not still be here.

Yeah, that's probably true.

A little.

Here we go!

Let it be me! Bleep, let it be me! Let it be me! No, my turn! My turn!

Guess it's me.

Okay, okay.

All you gotta do is tell yourself I cannot lose, right?

Man, where did she get so darn enthusiastic?

Remember, he manipulates shadows.

Watch the shadows.

You think I'd ever fall for stupid jutsu like that?

This is such a drag.

I mean, give me a break. I've got to fight a girl.

Yeah, you just keep thinking that way, little man.

I know what these guys are capable of from the time we met them in the forest

during the second exam.

Problem is, I didn't get a look at her YouTube.

And to make things worse, she saw mine.

Ready? Oh, well.

Nothing I can do.

Begin.

It's all I've got.

You're not trying that stupid shadow thing again, are you? Shut your mouth!

Ninja art. Shadow possession jutsu. Is that all you know? If that's the only

trick you've got, this is going to be easier than I thought.

Oh, please, not that old trick.

Let me guess. Next you'll throw Senbon with bells and Senbon without bells at

the same time.

I'll react to the bell. And while I'm focused on dodging them, I won't notice

the silent needles coming at me.

Am I right?

Good luck.

You sure talk a lot, don't you? Now I know to be careful to dodge all the

Senbon. Not just the ones with the bell.

What?

Where? Threats?

Oh, man.

Too late.

Shigemaru! Well, that didn't take long.

Hold on. Don't be so sure. He's not beaten yet.

Huh? One inch higher, and that would have been a fatal hit.

Okay, now I get a turn.

Sorry, that was your turn.

What the... What's going on?

You see, you don't ever ask for whom the bell

tolls, because it tolls for thee.

This bell sends off a peculiar sound vibration that travels to the outer and

inner ear, then directly to the brain.

First comes paralysis, and soon you'll start hallucinating.

It won't work. You can't block the sound out once it's inside your head. It's

useless.

I can't tell which one of them is the real one. You can't move your arms or

legs. And even if you could, you wouldn't know which one of us to throw

shadow at.

Face it, you're cooked, little man.

I'm gonna cook you nice and slow over a hot fire.

You think it's that easy, huh?

That was three. Next time I'll throw five.

Each time a couple more until you end up looking like a hedgehog.

Stop playing games, why don't you?

If you're so tough, get it over with. Stop wasting my time.

I'm sorry.

So you're not a fan of my slow and painful method, huh?

Fine, fix yourself.

We'll do it the quick way then.

And painful.

What's wrong?

Can't move my arm!

Looks like my lame shadow jutsu was a success after all.

But you haven't thrown any shadows.

No way I made sure of it!

You really still don't see it?

What do you mean?

Look at that thread you're holding. Don't you find it a little strange that

would even cast a shadow at this height?

Of course you didn't notice it because you were concentrating on other things

like killing me.

The shadow spreading out around me, and I didn't see it coming.

Right. I stretched my shadow out along the line of that thread and followed it

all the way back. Now I'm attached to you.

Now, though we mirror each other's movements, so what? A cute trick, but

you gain by it?

Man, you're annoying.

Shut up and watch.

Hmm.

You must be insane!

If you throw that shuriken at me, you'll just be attacking yourself!

Makes it kind of interesting, doesn't it?

You wouldn't! You couldn't!

Yeah, like a game of chicken. Let's see who ducks first. You're crazy!

Big deal. I'll do that too.

And that's what I call using your head.

The wise shinobi carefully scouts the physical layout of the battlefield and

never loses sight of his position on it.

That was her problem. I made sure she was so busy focusing on me, she didn't

notice the wall inches behind her head. So when we both dodged backwards,

kaboom! Now who's hearing bells?

Winner of the sixth match, Shikamaru Nara.

Atta boy, Shikamaru!

Yeah, way to go!

Come on, come on, me next, me next, me next, me!

Even that good -for -nothing Lazy Bum won his match. When am I gonna get my

turn?

Now there's only me left.

Alright, moving on to the next match.

There's one Sound Village Ninja left. There's me, you, Naruto, Choji, Neji,

and that Sand Village guy.

Just don't put me up against him, that's all I ask.

This year's rookies look like they could be quite a challenge.

Lee, he's just like Guy used to be.

Good luck, Naruto.

Do your best.

You know it, Sakura!

It's your moment, Naruto.

Go on, show us.

Show us how much you've grown.

It's my time to shine!

Thank you.

Thank you.
