[Peter] The Chunin Exam was definitely one of the most BADASS arcs in Classic Naruto. Guys, that was pure mess. There were the qualifiers going on, then in the middle of everything the village is attacked, there is the thing of the village of sand with the village of sound, there is Hiruzen more there than here fighting against Orochimaru, there is Gaara turning Shukaku .
. But in reality, if all this nonsense hadn't happened, if the chunin exams had happened the way they were supposed to happen: Who would really be the winner? !
Sit down and we'll stay on top of it now! Hey Nerd, what's up? Peter here!
Guys, since the time I watched the classic Naruto, back then, I found myself thinking: Who would have really won the chunnin exam? Ok, we find out later that, by decision of the Village, Shikamaru ends up with the green vest, but I think that left a lot of people with a flea behind their ear! Not that it's totally absurd for Vila da Folha to give the rank of Chunin to Shikamaru, the guy is too top!
Apart from the fact that he's lazy, if he could ask for retirement at the age of thirteen, he would, we have to give it a try, because the guy is one of the only kids in town who can reason like grown-ups! He's a born strategist in a boy's body, right? But now, guys, let's face it: If that whole Shukaku and Orochimaru thing hadn't happened, if the chunin exam had gone normally, according to the tournament rules: who do you think would have been the winner?
Who would have advanced, phase by phase? The final would be who against whom? To settle this doubt once and for all, let's go back to the last battle that followed the exam rules and analyze how the switching would look like!
Naruto VS Neji, Naruto won. Shikamaru VS Temari, Shikamaru wins, so Temari wins. Shino VS Kankurou, barely started the fight and Kankurou farted in the farofa, so Shino won.
So we jump straight to: Sasuke VS Gaara. This fight, if we consider both of them using their full power, that is: Shukaku and the Curse Mark, would be one of the most balanced of the tournament. But there's a catch.
The only way Sasuke has to penetrate Gaara's absolute defense, that is, the one he makes a shield in the form of a sphere, is with Chidori, and even then, he can't open a breach that big. The probability that Sasuke has to win this fight is if it really ended very quickly and with a very surgical blow from Chidori on his part. But, if the fight extends to the height of the two, that is, Gaara with Shukaku and Sasuke with a mark, that would already be a problem for our Uchiha here.
Unlike Gaara's Shukaku, which gives him not only an increase in defense and attack, it can be said that he also gains a kind of healing factor, as we can see in his own fight against Sasuke in the forest. In that fight, even Sasuke using Chidori he can't cause damage from Gaara, and adding the wear of Chakra from Chidori, plus the energy consumption that the Curse Mark requires, Sasuke's effort would end up turning into damage and thus he would become more and more vulnerable while Gaara's strength and resistance would only increase, because here we are dealing with a Jinchuuriki and a Juin wielder who are completely different forms of forbidden powers. The bijuu grants Chakra to the wielder while the Juin, especially Sasuke's Juin that was sealed and had not yet been treated by Orochimaru's Mind Awakening Pill, consumes the wielder's Chakra in exchange for an increase in physical condition and impact on enemies.
jutsus. In this way, considering this whole situation, we give the victory to our Gaara of the Desert! On a good note, I think Shino is one of the best genin in the classic, but I can't imagine anything in this fight that could put Temari at a disadvantage.
Of course, we have to consider that she would already be completely EXHAUSTED from the fight against Shikamaru and Shino the way he is could take advantage of that, because Shino is a top strategist too. But in a good way, apart from the possibility of him planting some insect on her before the fight starts (which I even think would be against the rules), Temari at a proper distance could almost completely nullify Shino. Temari doesn't need to go near Shino even a bit, right?
Well, although Shino wouldn't need to get close to her either, but Temari has a much stronger element than Shino's, which even nullifies Shino's, right. Both Temari and Shino have very similar intellect levels. I wouldn't say that they were the same, because we have two situations: we clearly see Temari clashing with Shikamaru's intellect in the fight (even though she is defeated, but you can see how tough she is in this regard!
), while we see Shino's intellect more in isolated appearances, like against Kankurou or against Zaku. I think that in a way it might even be possible for Shino to surprise Temari in some way in the middle of the fight, but analyzing the brutes, nerds, Temari's techniques, her specialty in ranged combat, and especially the EXPERIENCE she gains after the fight against Shikamaru, even tired, she would be much more alert not only the traps she could fall in the middle of the fight itself but also the traps she could fall due to the battlefield, like Shikamaru's shadow that crossed that crater left by Naruto's clone! So here, the win goes to Temari!
This is where boys become men, get ready! This will probably be the hardest fight of the tournament, after all we have to consider something very important: There are two jinchuriki! That is, the way in which the two access the secret powers, in this fight, is exactly the same, or almost.
Well, we have a small difference here: in this arc, Naruto already learns to use the pirate Kaioken. . .
or rather, the Nine-Tailed Fox Chakra (which he NEVER used in the ENTIRE anime! ). That is, while Gaara transforms in the conventional way, losing control and letting the Bijuu dominate him completely, Narutinho manages to use only the Bijuu's chakra without necessarily having to lose control.
"But that's fine, Peter! What's up? What are you getting at?
! " Guys, think: Naruto had difficulties in the first fight because Neji annulled one of, if not Naruto's strongest point: which is the amount of Chakra, and here's worth a thought: If Naruto, completely without conventional chakra, managed to give a ride on Neji after activating the Kurama Chakra, imagine if here, in the fight against Gaara, he had access to the normal Chakra plus Kurama's Chakra? And that's exactly what this fight boils down to: a competition for who has more chakra, the core of the fight is this, you know, there are two Jinchuurikis.
And we can easily take the fight in the forest as a basis: In the manga, we see Naruto doing his two thousand shadow clone jutsu and literally beating Gaara in half-bijuu form. If the fight wasn't decided at that point, Gaara would still have one last resort: the total release of Shukaku. From then on, we use a lot of things that actually happened in the manga as a basis: Gaara in the form of Shukaku can only remain in control if he uses the pretend-dead jutsu, and once this jutsu is broken, just like Naruto did in history, Gaara would be defeated.
Other than that, let's face it, if we are considering here that Orochimaru would not stop the Chunin exam, if Shukaku completely took control of Gaara, the fight would certainly be paralyzed by the Jounnins of the leaf because it would no longer be a tournament fight but a threat imminent for the WHOLE Leaf Village, which, in any case, would give victory to our dear Narutinho! That is, it's win-win, no one would let the guy out of control there, do you agree? And now for the moment everyone has been waiting for: The true final of the Chunin Exams!
In this final, we have the classic case of Brute Force against intellect. But it's worth remembering one thing, Guys: here Temari would not be dealing with normal opponents, like Tenten or Shikamaru: she would be dealing with a Jinchuuriki. The biggest problem that Naruto would have right from the start would be approaching Temari, because even if he used his clones, Temari's gusts of wind are VERY strong and could finish them off without much difficulty.
A little gust and all the clones would disappear like soap bubbles, right? And the most important thing from now on: She would already be alert to Naruto's UNDERGROUND ATTACKS, so that strategy of using a clone to attack from below was already completely beaten. Temari saw this happen against Neji and mostly fell into the same trap against Shikamaru, and surely Temari, smart as she is, wouldn't let lightning strike the same place twice!
So the first thing I already make clear is: If Naruto is open-hearted, like he does with most opponents, you can be sure that he will take a whoop from Temari. But it's going to take a gust that's going to go up to his hair, it's going to turn Naruto bald. And here we still have something to consider, guys: the amount of Chakra he would lose in the last fight against Gaara.
We then have two possibilities for the outcome of this fight: If Naruto fights only in base form, considering everything we just said, the victory would be given to Temari due to the advantage of Intellect and ranged attacks, but here we arrive at a crucial point: the possession of the Bijuu. If the fight extended to that point, that is, if Temari hadn't finished Naruto yet, she would be in a situation of mortal danger and you know exactly what that means: Kurama would take control. At that point, Naruto would transform the same way he did in the Land of Mist against Haku and simply turn into a monster.
His strength and speed would increase so much that he would most likely DESTROY Temari's fan just like he did with Haku's mirrors, and, really, Temari without the fan would be a helpless bunny in front of the transformed Naruto and if that happened, guys, the mistreatment would be so great that most likely the fight would be paralyzed. Someone was going to whistle: ENOUGH! "Ah, Peter, but if the Jounins stop the fight then the victory will go to Temari!
" Not in this situation! Naruto with possession of Kyuubi does not necessarily represent a threat to the village, because, when the transformation does not yet have tails, it is easy to control, but most likely the fight would be paralyzed because Naruto would be so out of control that most likely he WOULD TRUCK Temari, especially if she was completely helpless without her fan. Guys, he is possessed and she without the fan, what would that happen there?
The Leaf Jounin would have no other choice but to stop the fight for the same reason they stopped Neji against Hinata: Neji literally beat Hinata to the point where she was on the brink of death, but still the victory was given to him, just like Naruto would have to be stopped if he was literally slaying Temari, but either way, victory would be given to him. So, the true winner of the Chunin Exam is: NARUTO UZUMAKI! There's no way we can go the other way, guys, this analysis was very well done.
Himself! Our dear thick-skinned Narutézimo would most likely have won the tournament if Orochimaru hadn't attacked and would have already taken his first step towards the Hokage's dream at that time! Man, I would have won a very tough tournament.
