After your fight in the Chunin Exam, you step back onto the stage, out of breath and with a few wounds. You won.

There you look around and see Gaara, who is watching you with a cold expression

You sit back down next to your friends Neji and Lee and wonder what Gaara is thinking, his facial expression is unreadable for you

Gaara is extremely strong and unpredictable, many participants are intimidated by him

You can still feel his gaze on you even with your back turned to him
