Chapter 257: Kitazawa

"The winner is Naruto Uzumaki."

Kitazawa announced in a timely manner.

A wave of gasps immediately erupted from Grade 1, Class A.

Although Naruto Uzumaki had always performed well, his opponent was Sasuke Uchiha, a long-renowned genius.

Especially since Sasuke Uchiha had held the advantage from the beginning of the fight to the end.

Naruto Uzumaki's final burst of power to secure the win left many feeling dazed and incredulous.

"Naruto actually won?"

Choji Akimichi's mouth hung open, a potato chip clutched in his hand, momentarily stunned.

"I certainly didn't expect that."

Ino Yamanaka nodded in agreement.

Compared to Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha fit the mold of a powerhouse much better.

In fact, that was exactly the case.

Since enrolling, Sasuke Uchiha had performed perfectly in every aspect.

Whereas Naruto Uzumaki's performance when he first enrolled was truly a sight to behold—in the worst way.

"That's absurd!"

Kiba Inuzuka couldn't help but complain: "How can someone learn the B-rank Shadow Clone Jutsu at six years old?"

He was a top-tier genius within the Inuzuka clan, but in Grade 1, Class A, he felt quite ordinary.

Comparing yourself to others only leads to frustration!

"Sasuke also learned the B-rank Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu."

Shikamaru Nara shook his head and analyzed: "The reason Naruto won wasn't because of the Shadow Clone Jutsu, but his speed."

"The speed he burst out with at the end was very fast."

Shino Aburame said with a solemn expression: "Even my parasitic insects aren't that fast right now."

"Is it from Might Guy's training?"
