Uzumaki Naruto 63 - Disqualified?! Danger! Moving Ahead of Schedule!
After Naruto stuns the crowd with his come from behind victory over Neji, the crowd erupts into applause. Surprised, Naruto looks up at the numerous attendees and realizes they are acknowledging him. He hams it up and waves madly to the crowd, basking in the attention. As Sakura watches from the stands, she feels a sense of envy. He motivates her to try harder and to her best. The Jounins and higher ups are extremely impressed that Naruto has learned to control the Nine Tails so well without losing control of himself.
Meanwhile, Neji is taken to the hospital and treated. Naruto's determination not to give up and succumb to fate dominates his thoughts. Hiashi enters the room and asks the doctors for a moment alone with Neji. He then delivers a scroll that contains the truth of that day, written by Hizashi to his son. Hiashi explains that he had every intention of dying that day and asks Neji to read the scroll. Hizashi writes that the Lightning Country's head ninja was killed by Hiashi in the act of kidnapping Hinata. However, the Lightning Country refused to acknowledge the crime, instead focusing on the death of their head ninja. They demanded Hiashi's life as compensation. He agreed, knowing that his death would protect war. The Konoha elders warned about protecting the Bloodline and proposed a new idea. Hizashi would be the one to die in place of Hiashi. That had been the purpose of the Branch family for generations. Hizashi had already consented to it.
Hiashi immediately objected to his brother taking his own place, but Hizashi stepped forward to explain why. He admits that he has always hated the Head family, but he wishes to protect his older brother. His death will be the first thing he chose to do himself. He regrets that he has only shown Neji his ugly side - his hatred for the Head family - for now he has discovered his own will. This will not be an act to protect the Head family, but it will be his own choice to protect Neji, his siblings and family, and the village. His death is a symbol of overcoming his destiny. He then advises Neji in the letter to overcome his destiny.
When Neji finishes the letter, he is surprised to see Hiashi bowing before him. Hiashi then apologizes, and Neji accepts. After Hiashi leaves, Neji seems to come to peace with himself. He wishes to become stronger so he doesn't lose.
Meanwhile, back at the Chuunin, the crowd is growing restless waiting for the Sasuke vs Gaara match. The Hokage senses he has no choice but to disqualify Sasuke. A ripple of concern runs through the Sand attendees, who need the Sasuke/Gaara match to go on as planned for their grand scheme to work. Baki's worst fear is that Gaara already killed Sasuke... there is a flashback to Gaara observing Kakashi and Sasuke's training session. Kakashi senses him and asks him to come out...
In the present, Kazekage requests that the match be postponed because most of the head ninja and feudal lords came because of it. The Sand wishes that their best ninja should have the opportunity to demonstrate his skills against an Uchiha. The Fourth agrees and the match is postponed.
Gemma announces to the crowd that the Sasuke/Gaara match will be postponed. The next match will be Kankuro and Shino. Fearing that if he fought, he might expose techniques that will be useful in the Sand's game plan, Kankuro forfeits, and Shino wins by default.
The next match will then be Temari and Shikamaru. Shikamaru feels particularly lazy and contemplates giving up, but Naruto gives him a shove onto the field to get him moving.
