Naruto

Naruto and his fellow participants arrive at the Forest of Death, the site of the second part of the Chunin Exam.

The second exam starts in the Forest of Death. Sasuke notices that an enemy has disguised himself as Naruto.

The Grass ninja that attacks Sasuke and Sakura has more power than the two can handle.

Seeing Naruto furiously fight back against the Grass ninja, Sasuke realizes that he was wrong to think about fleeing the scene of a battle.

After receiving the report from her staff, Anko senses that Orochimaru has snuck into the examination.

Protecting Sakura, who can no longer move, Lee battles the three Sound ninja himself.

While Sakura fends off the Sound ninja attack by herself, the rival Ino team appears!

The Sound ninja depart after witnessing Sasuke's intense power. Naruto's team finally gets a moment of peace to recuperate.

To heal their wounds, Naruto and his team take a much-needed rest after their battle against the Sound ninja. But it has already been four days since the start of the exam and there is only one day remaining until time expires.

Naruto's team joins Kabuto on their journey to the tower, but on the way, they are trapped by the genjutsu (illusion technique) of the Hidden Rain Village's genin (low rank ninja), Oboro's team.

When Naruto and his team open the two scrolls after reaching the tower, Iruka suddenly appears.

The 21 ninjas that passed the second exam assemble for their next challenge.

The preliminaries for the third exam are one on one combat, and the first match is between Sasuke and Orochimaru's minion Yoroi.

As Kakashi safely releases Sasuke from the spell, Orochimaru suddenly shows up. Orochimaru expresses his desire for the power of Sharingan that the Uchiha clan holds in order to fulfill his ambitions.

The preliminaries continue as the next match pits Sand ninja Gaara's teammate Kankuro against Orochimaru's minion Misumi.

The fourth match is between Sakura and Ino, who are childhood friends and competitors for the affection of Sasuke.

The fifth match is between Tenten and Temari. The sixth match is Shikamaru versus Kin.

In the seventh match, Naruto clashes against Kiba, who brings along his dog Akamaru.

By consuming Food Pills, Kiba and Akamaru increase their chakra levels and start their counterattack on Naruto.

Cousins Hinata and Neji of the Hyuga clan confront each other in the eighth match.

Hinata goes up against Neji, but he hits her pressure point by using his Byakugan (white eyes). Hinata's flow of chakra is stopped, and she almost loses consciousness.

Gaara finally appears in the ninth match, and his opponent is taijutsu (physical technique) specialist Lee.

Lee uses the banned technique Primary Lotus to attack Gaara.

Lee decides to use the forbidden move, Hidden Lotus, as a last resort.
