Inside the arena, after Sakura said she gave up, except for people like Goku and Naruto who were prone to getting angry, everyone else had different reactions.
"This woman
Kankuro was still shocked that Gaara's defense was broken, and was suddenly shocked by Sakura's declaration of surrender.
"Why would Sakura admit defeat? Isn't the situation good now? The guy on the other side has no power to fight back."
Seeing his best friend admit defeat, Bingye was extremely puzzled.
"No, take a good look at the current status of both parties."
The usual laziness on Shikamaru's face was no longer there, and he was analyzing the situation on the field seriously.
"Although Sakura always had the upper hand, the damage she caused to Gaara was not that great."
"And when she attacked Gaara, she obviously consumed a lot of energy. Look, she's breathing heavily now, and her face is much paler than before."
Hearing this, Namino took a closer look and discovered that the situation was just as Shikamaru had said. Sakura now looked much uglier than before the game began, and she couldn't even straighten her back, obviously looking very tired.
"Then look at Gaara. Although he was constantly being hit, the sand defense on his body helped him offset the damage."
"Although his defense was broken by Sakura, he only suffered a little damage, which was not a big deal for him.
"Comparing the two, Sakura doesn't actually have the upper hand, unless she can defeat her opponent in one fell swoop."
"Just like the energy bombs she launched at the end, they were supposed to knock down the opponent with one strike, but unfortunately they didn't work.
After Shikamaru's eloquent analysis, Namiya finally understood why Sakura had to admit defeat, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for him:
If Sakura had met another opponent, she would have won by now.
However, what they both didn't know was that although Sakura's surrender had a lot to do with physical exhaustion, there was another more important reason, which was -
"What a pity! Sakura has used up too much energy. If she continues to fight, not only will she not win the game, but she will also faint from exhaustion."
Sasuke crossed his arms and glanced at Naruto, who was standing beside him with an unwilling look on his face.
"Yeah, I know."
Naruto replied muffledly.
If he hadn't known this, he would have yelled at Sakura, angry at her for not fighting back.
That's right, the most important reason why Sakura gave up the competition was that the energy in her body was no longer enough for her to continue fighting.
As for why her Qi was insufficient, apart from the fact that her Qi explosion consumed a huge amount of energy, the most fundamental reason was that she did not have much Qi in her body to begin with.
out
Once the explosion is activated, the energy in her body will drop drastically.
If she can't defeat her opponent before her energy drops below the safety line, she will have basically no hope of defeating him.
Unless she is ready to die and fights even if she uses up all her energy, she will have a chance of winning.
But now it's just a game, why should she go to this extent?
On the field, Moonlight Gale, the examiner, did not expect Sakura to suddenly admit defeat, so he confirmed again: "Are you sure?"
Sakura nodded: "Yeah, I'm sure."
"Well, in that case, I declare…
Moonlight Gale was about to announce the result of the competition when he saw something unexpected happen in front of him, and his voice stopped abruptly.
Gaara, who realized that Sakura was about to admit defeat, had a crazy murderous intent on his face and controlled the overwhelming sand to sweep towards Sakura.
"I haven't fought enough yet. Wait until I kill you, then you can admit defeat!"
His words were full of cruelty.
"this guy"
Seeing this attack coming, Xiaoying was a little surprised. Is this guy pursuing her so relentlessly?
She gritted her teeth and tried to avoid the attack.
Even though her body was exhausted now, she was confident that she could avoid the opponent's attack.
But before she could dodge, several gas bombs suddenly shot from above, blasting the sand all over the sky with a few bangs.
She looked back and saw Naruto standing on the railing on the viewing platform, pointing at Gaara and shouting,
"If you haven't fought enough, I'll fight with you!!"
Beside him, Sasuke raised his lips: "If it's not enough, there's me, but I don't think I'll be needed."
On the other side, Rock Lee was unwilling to be left behind and raised his hand to signal: "Me, me, me, and me!!!
"Naruto, Sasuke, Xiao Li, you
Sakura looked at them, her face full of emotion.
But the person being accused does not feel the same way.
I saw Gaara's face twitching a little, and he was very angry that someone was hindering his attack.
In his opinion, Sakura should be crushed by him, and then he can let her mother, who has turned into sand, taste her blood, which he thinks is extremely delicious.
But all of this was obstructed by people, and there were more than just one or two people who wanted to obstruct it.
The earth is falling! Seeing this, an idea that he had not implemented before came to his mind again, and he was ready to transform into a complete body and turn the place upside down.
But at this moment,
Three figures suddenly appeared beside him.
"That's enough, Gaara, don't forget our plan."
Maki glanced around and growled in a low voice after confirming that there was no one else nearby.
Gaara is the key to their plan to attack Konoha. If this is exposed, the whole plan will be in vain.
"Gaara, look at me and listen to me. You can kill these people when the plan is implemented. There is no need to rush now."
Temari boldly pressed Gaara's shoulders and looked him straight in the eye.
"Yes, yes, Gaara, please be patient for a few more days."
Kankuro didn't care about being afraid of Gaara in this state, and kept agreeing.
I don't know whose words among the three of them had an effect, but the madness in Gaara's eyes gradually disappeared.
After a while, he calmed down completely, no longer showing any signs of brutality or bloodthirstiness.
"I will kill them."
After saying this without any fluctuation in his tone, he turned and left.
Seeing this, Maki winked at Temari and Kankuro, signaling them to follow, and then he went to Moonlight Speedway.
He apologized to Feng: "Sorry, Gaara gets carried away easily when fighting with others. I have already criticized him.
Did you watch this game?"
There is a rule in the competition that states:
After one party admits defeat, the other party may no longer attack him.
He was afraid that Gaara's move just now would cause the examiner to judge that he had violated the rules of the competition and thus would not be able to advance to the finals.
Although Gaara did not advance, it did not hinder their plan to release the One-Tail in the finals venue on the day of the finals.
You can also enter as a spectator.
But except for Gaara, all those who took part in the Chunin Exam had been eliminated.
If even Gaara was eliminated, they, the Sand Village, would be left with nothing. Not only would it be embarrassing for their own Kazekage to come to Konoha, but they would also be laughed at by other ninja villages when the news spread.
Even if their plan to attack Konoha succeeds, it will not affect this.
After hearing his apology, Gekkou Hayate did not respond to him immediately, but looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.
After Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded slightly, he looked at Maki and said, "Since we are allies, you can allow Gaara to make a mistake once, but only this time."
