Recalling Minato’s era, Kakashi designs a bell test to evaluate teamwork and independent thinking over blind rule-following. Meanwhile, Guy worries after Lee, Neji, and Tenten discuss Kakashi failing three brothers. Guy joins Asuma and Kurenai at a dumpling house, discussing Kakashi’s methods before confronting him. Kakashi refuses to explain his approach but later meets the brothers, who thank him for the lesson. Subsequently, Hiruzen selects the next candidates for Kakashi’s evaluation: Sakura Haruno, Sasuke, and Naruto.
