For Naruto, participating in the Chuunin Exam is useless and a waste of time that he can use to train his magic mirror sun and moon. But because his participation in the Chuunin Exam is an S-rank mission from Sandaime, he did not have any other choices except to participate.
Of course, Naruto was already preparing the special blood clone technique that would let his clone copy Sakura's and Sasuke's abilities up to one hundred percent.
So his blood clone can pretend to be Sakura and Sasuke without anyone noticed or feel suspicious with him.
And right now, in the event when Lee is challenging Sasuke. Naruto decided it was the right time for him to test how strong his basic taijutsu skill was, having already been trained by Gojo for a decade.
A strong body and mind was one of the basic requirements for a Limitless user so they could use the Limitless to the maximum.
"Are you sure you want to fight me, Naruto-san? Because according to the information I got, your taijutsu skill was bad! You would be hurt if you tried to fight a taijutsu user like me!" Lee said while ready in his Konoha Taijutsu stance.
"Nah, I will fight you all right to test how strong I am right now. After having an extreme training!" Naruto said while in his Wing Chun stance.
"Okay, the Konoha Taijutsu advanced student Rock Lee is ready to fight you!"
"Wing Chun-style taijutsu, Senju Naruto is ready to have a fight with you!"
***
Lee was never heard about Wing Chun, but he saw Naruto's horse stance was solid, and Naruto was not showing any openings. Lee was sure Naruto was doing a lot of training to reach the level of the horse stance he uses right now.
He would never underestimate Naruto and try to attack Naruto carefully.
Lee moved really fast and then used his left foot to attack Naruto right on the right side of Naruto's stomach.
But Naruto uses his right elbow to stop Lee's left kick, and then he himself tries to attack Lee's front chest using his right kick. Lee was able to avoid Naruto's kick by retreating to the back.
Surprised to see Naruto can fight on equal terms with him, Lee was smiling. Sure, in terms of taijutsu skill and movement, he was still not as good as Neji or Naruto in front of him.
Who can move his body fast, refined, and soft so flawlessly? But Lee knows in terms of strength he would not lose to Naruto or Neji by the analysis he does to the two of them.
Besides, he realized that Naruto was covering his eyes all the time using his head protector, so Lee knew that Naruto was fighting using his other sensory perception to feel everything around him.
And for Lee, Naruto's perception abilities are really amazing.
Lee then tries to use his right fist to attack Naruto's face, but once again, Naruto stops his attack by using his left palm. And then Naruto's right finger is slashing Lee's eyes, making Lee have a hard time seeing because Naruto's attacks are causing his vision to be a bit blurry.
***
Lee did not expect Naruto would use an attack that would make his vision blurry. Naruto then attacked Lee with a continuous punch, who was so fast and full of power.
The continuous punch hit Lee right on his chest. And Lee can only block Naruto's attack using his hand based on instinct.
But Lee did not want to give up even though he lost his vision a bit.
Lee uses chakra to reinforce his leg, and then Lee avoids Naruto's continuous assault using the quick move he learned from Gai.
Because Lee suddenly avoided his attack, Naruto's continuous attacks became misses, and he lost a stance because of it. But because of his experience in fighting against Gojo, Naruto quickly fixes his stance and is ready to fight once more.
Sadly, because Naruto was showing an opening because of losing stance, Lee, who was seeing the opening, did not want to waste the chance to attack back. He suddenly appeared behind Naruto after he opened the first gate of Hachimon Tonko and was about to use the bandage in his hand to wrap Naruto's body. But Naruto being Naruto, who had already used a lot of tricks in his ten years fighting Gojo so he could have a chance to win against Gojo, quickly took a kunai he took from the kunai pocket on his waist and then cut the bandage using the kunai.
***
When the fight is in climax and about to have a final confrontation, the fight was stopped by someone Naruto did not want to meet at all: Guy Might. The most powerful Taijutsu user in Konoha beneath Hiashi Hyuuga.
Someone Naruto did not like, but he did not hate him either because he was a good person at heart even though he was a bit eccentric.
"Guy-sensei, why did you stop the fight between me and Naruto-san? We almost reach the climax of our fight!" Lee cannot accept that his Jounin-Sensei is stopping his fight, but Lee was stopped from talking when he saw the seriousness in Guy's face.
"Lee, Kakashi's student, is playing around with you, and he is even not using half of his power in your duel with him. He is using you to test how strong his taijutsu prowess is. And by seeing his movement, he has half of my current strength, and if he decided to train harder, he could reach my current level in one or two years. His taijutsu talent is much stronger than even mine or Kakashi's!"
Guy's words made Lee's jaws drop because all this time he worked ten to twenty times harder than ordinary ninjas to reach his current level of power. But when he heard Naruto could easily reach Guy level in one or two years of training, he felt the world was really unfair to people without a talent like him.
"Ah, you caught me, Guy-sensei. Yeah, I only used Lee to test how strong I was compared to other Genin. As a payment for using Lee, please keep this," Naruto said while throwing a green shiny bean to Guy. "Those beans were the answer for Lee's chakra problem!"
***
After giving the Senzu beans to Guy, Naruto decided to go along with his two special bunshin who look like Sasuke and Sakura to trick Orochimaru.
The Senzu beans Naruto gives to Guy were not the usual Senzu beans, but the special ones given to him by Goku, who can even fix the defect in human bodies. It even can heal any disease perfectly.
Guy feels a bit weird and confused by why Naruto is giving him green beans. But because he knew Naruto was a good boy and he seemed to not lie to him, he decided to give Lee the beans if it really could fix the chakra meridian problem in his body that prevented Lee from using Ninjutsu.
And the other thing that made Guy believe in Naruto was because he knew the secret about Naruto, who was the son of Tsunade Senju, the best doctor in the world.
Lee then ate the Senzu beans without feeling suspicious because of his blind trust in Guy. And just like Naruto said, Lee can feel his body become so warm. The chakra problems inside his body are starting to be fixed, and for the first time in his life, Lee can feel his chakra flowing more smoothly.
