(One month later)

All the gennin that have passed the preliminaries have spent the entire month training to their best abilities for example.

Naruto: practiced more on his healing and practice in his jutsu elements and now he has mastered wind, earth, and fire, and is working on lighting and water and thought he could try and save the advanced elements or the future.

Sasuke: has mastered both fire and lightning and is getting into trying to learn wind (bc Naruto forced him to). He has also advanced his sharingan to be able to extend the amount of time he could use it.

Sakura: has grown her chakra reserves and can REALLY throw a punch all thanks to the help of Naruto. She- like Naruto can also now withstand genjutsu, although she can't block every genjutsu, she's still able to block the basic ones. She also can do basic healing as well although it does take a toll on her chakra once in a while.

Shikamaru: has advanced his shadows to where he can make multiple shadows out of the tiniest piece of shadow he finds.

Ino: has enhanced her mind-transfer jutsu to where it even surpasses all but her dad right now. She (behind her clans back) has also learned a few basics on wind style.

Everyone was ready at the stadium, they had 10 extra minutes to relax before their fights where to begin.

"I'm nervous..I barely got to go to the preliminaries and everyone else is full of people that did win, and I can't lose not in front of my parents or anyone else ever again" Sakura said slumped with her hands ruffled in her hair; nerves causing her to sweat.

Naruto put a hand on her shoulder as he said "Sakura.. your physical strength is stronger than any of the gennin here, probably the chunin too! One punch and it's over for them."

"But I'm not as strong as you are!" Sakura exclaimed as tears started to well up in her eyes.

"And you don't need to be. You aren't me. You...are Sakura Haruno, the girl who's going to prove that anyone can be a ninja no matter how weak you start out. You're not me and you're not my shadow. You. Sakura, are going to be the next strongest kunoichi the world has ever seen." This made Sakura cry in his arms as she thanked and hugged him.

And if you're wondering where Sasuke is. He's training his sharingan right before the match starts as Kakashi is the only person that can help seeing as he as a sharingan.

They stood up and smiled at each other before that sat down on the stone chairs (whatever the hell their spelled) instead of staying to sit on the ground.
