Third Training Ground

The is a training ground where Konoha shinobi honed their skills. The Third Training Field was the first place Team Kakashi trained, using the bell training that the Third Hokage had once used on his own students. Sakura and Sasuke tried to get the bells and failed, while Naruto was trying to skip the bell training and just go after the reward without getting the bell. Because of this, Naruto ended being tied up while forced to watch his comrades eat, after which they would be given a second chance for the bells. But Sasuke and Sakura, realizing they would work better as a team if Naruto was not hungry, broke the rule and gave Naruto some of their food. Because of this, Kakashi, their Jonin sensei, passed them saying that "In the ninja world, those who break the rules and regulations are called trash, but those who don't care about their comrades are worse than trash."

After about two years, Naruto and Sakura once again had the same bell training with Kakashi so he could see how they had improved. Kakashi is able to see the results of their training with Tsunade and Jiraiya, but they were still unable to beat him until Naruto threatens to tell Kakashi the conclusion of the new "Icha Icha" book, making Kakashi cover his ears so he can't hear them, then closing his eyes to prevent his Sharingan from reading their lips. They then took the bells, and Naruto revealed that he had only read the first three pages, to Kakashi's humiliation.
