The story travels back to the time after Sasuke's defection from the Leaf and before Naruto's return from his two-year training journey with Jiraiya.
Perhaps we should forego
the Chunin Exams this time.
ربما يجب أن نتخلى عن امتحانات الشونين هذه المرة
Vielleicht sollten wir dieses Mal
auf die Chunin-Prüfung verzichten.
Beh, allora dovremo declinare
 l'invito all'esame dei chuunin, stavolta.
