Naruto: Honoo no Chuunin Shiken! Naruto vs. Konohamaru!!

With the Fourth Great Ninja War approaching, Sunagakure holds a special Chuunin Exam to strengthen the Allied Shinobi Forces. Naruto Uzumaki enters despite already being one of the most accomplished young ninja in the villages, and among the hopeful candidates is Konohamaru Sarutobi, who has spent years admiring Naruto while also treating him as the rival he intends to surpass.

When the two finally face each other in the arena, raw experience seems to place Naruto far ahead. Konohamaru refuses to back down, turning the exam into a personal test between master and admirer. But becoming a Chuunin depends on more than winning a fight, and even Naruto can still be caught by rules he failed to take seriously.
