Versus Momoshiki Arc

Alongside his squad mates Yurui and Tarui, Toroi’s team travelled to Konohagakure to compete in the Chūnin Exams. Following attending the entrance ceremony for it, the team ran into Team Konohamaru. Afterwards, Toroi’s team raced towards the first round exam venue alongside the other participants. Bypassing all the traps on their route, the team made it to Exam Venue B. There, the team participated in a true or false question, which resulted in all competitors falling into a pit that contained a pool of ink. As they were able to avoid falling into the ink, the team passed the first round of the Chūnin Exams.

Three days later, for the second round of the exams, Toroi’s team competed in a game of capture the flag against Team 15. After capturing their flag, their team proceeded to the final round of the exams. On the day, all participants were pitted against each other in single fights, leading to Toroi being matched up against Mitsuki, during which he was defeated and disqualified.
