We last saw Kakashi being hit by the kunais and shurikens thrown by Sasuke but is he still alive? Well, it turned out that it was only a replacement. Sasuke realized that his position has been known thus retreated. Kakashi pursued and a melee battle was seen between the two. Sasuke shows the Uchiha's pattern technique Grand Fire Ball during the battle and manage to touch one of the bells but was unable to get it. Sasuke lost the fight eventually and was buried head deep into the ground by Kakashi. Sakura who later passed that way saw Sasuke buried in the ground screamed, thought to herself that Sasuke is now beheaded and faints. Naruto manage to escape from the trap and tries to steal the food prepared earlier for those who manage to get the bells. Kakashi appears behind Naruto just as he was about to eat and ties him up. Later, the three Genins meet together again as the time set by Kakashi was up. Kakashi announces that none of them were fit to be a ninja. He explains the reason of having 3 in a team was for the mere reason of teamwork. Sakura retaliates stating that if they were meant to work as a team why is there only 2 bells instead of 3? Kakashi explains that in certain situation, a ninja is required to sacrifice his life. He makes his point by placing a knife at Sasuke's neck and tells Sakura to kills Naruto or else Sasuke will die. After that, he gives them one more chance to get the bells. However, they were not supposed to feed Naruto at all or they will be punished severely. Sasuke and Sakura decided to break the rule given and give Naruto some food. Just then Kakashi appears in an angry mood saying that they have broken the rule. Sakura and Sasuke reply that they are a team and no matter what they should work together. Kakashi's mood changes into a happy-go-lucky mood and states that they have passed the test. They do not understand as they have not obtained the bells yet. Kakashi went on to explain that those who break the rule in the world of ninja are considered low but it's even lower if you abandon your teammate. So, everyone was happy and heads on home. Wait someone's left behind.
