If nothing goes wrong...
Everything should be completely under control.
Uchiha Sasuke was very confident about this. As long as Otsutsuki Kaguya had not yet been resurrected and the Six Paths Sage could not interfere with this world, his power was invincible in this world, enough to solve all the problems he encountered.
However...
Power cannot solve everything.
For example, there was a problem before the pre-selection match of the third exam.
Although Uchiha Sasuke killed quite a few people, the number of people participating in the second exam was too large, and an extra match was still needed to eliminate a batch of Genin.
The Chunin Exams were also a show for the noble Daimyo, and this performance did not require so many performers, only the best group of Genin.
Yet, Uchiha Sasuke still felt that there were too few participants in the third round of the Chunin Exams.
Due to the pressure from Akihara Kagura in the real world, The Hidden Mist Village also sent people to participate in this Chunin Exam, but in this world, The Hidden Mist Village still had a hostile relationship with Konoha.
But...
Everything else remained unchanged.
In fact, some things were still developing in a good direction.
For example, the main examiner of this match, Gekkou Hayate.
In the real world, Gekkou Hayate was also unfortunate.
Because in the real world, Gekkou Hayate often coughed during the exam, which Akihara Kagura believed affected Konoha's image. His examiner qualifications were forcibly revoked, and he was even humiliated as a sickly person, ordered to go to Konoha Hospital for treatment, making his girlfriend Uzuki Yugao quite angry...
Fortunately.
In this world, Gekkou Hayate was very lucky.
Without someone with a sharp tongue like Akihara Kagura, Gekkou Hayate finally fulfilled his duties as the main examiner.
"Cough, cough..."
Examiner Gekkou Hayate's face was pale and emaciated, his hand formed a fist covering his lips, looking terminally ill as he slowly announced the participants of the first extra match: "The opponent for the first match... Cough, cough... Uchiha Sasuke versus Akado Yoroi!"
"..."
Uchiha Sasuke had a complex expression.
Actually...
The absence of Akihara Kagura in this world might not be a bad thing for everyone...
At least some people's lives would take a better path, not being inexplicably humiliated by someone...
Forget it.
Better focus on the exam!
Uchiha Sasuke's opponent was Orochimaru's subordinate Akado Yoroi, who was instructed by Orochimaru. Facing Uchiha Sasuke, he immediately surrendered to avoid being killed by Sasuke, as he did not have the courage to defy Orochimaru's orders.
"Hmph..."
"That guy has some self-awareness..."
Uchiha Sasuke looked towards the direction of the Jonin leading the Hidden Sound Village team. He could see that it was Orochimaru in disguise, clearly indicating that Orochimaru had already suffered at his hands.
"Some sacrifices are unnecessary..."
Orochimaru noticed Uchiha Sasuke's gaze, his lips curling into a gentle smile, hiding the conspiracy within his heart.
Everything...
Was proceeding in an orderly manner.
Everything...
Was continually happening like fate.
Such as the battle over the main and branch families between Hyuga Hinata and Hyuga Neji, where Hinata nearly died at Neji's hands like in the real world. Once Hinata was saved, Neji began questioning Konoha's favoritism towards the main family...
It was...
Somewhat infuriating to watch.
Now, Uchiha Sasuke had no time to deal with the Hyuga family's issues. He knew that under the pressure of overwhelming power, the Hyuga Clan would easily submit...
Currently, Uchiha Sasuke just felt that this extra match was a bit boring because in his eyes, everyone participating in the exam was no different from insects.
An unexpected turn of events...
Happened quickly...
The next opponents!
Team 3's Rock Lee versus The Hidden Sand Village's Gaara!
In the real world, Rock Lee was unfortunate. For contradicting Akihara Kagura, he was directly stripped of the qualification to continue participating in the exam and could only cry with his teacher Might Guy...
In this world, at thirteen years old, Rock Lee showcased the charm of a Taijutsu Ninja. He directly and boldly opened the Eight Gates Jutsu, fiercely engaged in a powerful battle with Gaara, and it was even the most spectacular match in this extra exam!
However...
The price was extremely painful!
A flower that blooms its beauty too early often withers easily.
Rock Lee bloomed with the beauty of youth in this exam but paid an extremely painful price. Due to excessive physical exhaustion, he couldn't last long in the fight. His left leg and left arm were broken by Gaara's Sand Manipulation Jutsu...
A group of new-generation ninjas all waited outside Konoha Hospital for news but received shocking bad news. They might be losing a comrade...
"The Medical Ninja checked him over..."
Might Guy stood outside the hospital ward, speaking with a heavy expression about his talented disciple's condition: "With their current medical capabilities, it's impossible to heal Lee. Lee's injuries cannot fully recover, and he won't be able to continue his ninja career in the future..."
"..."
Konoha's new generation ninjas couldn't believe it.
A genius Taijutsu ninja, who was around their age, could no longer continue as a ninja just because of an injury from a single battle? Would he now completely withdraw from the ranks of ninjas and become an ordinary villager in the village?
