So despite Sasuke claiming that Naruto is the one he wants to fight the most during the preliminary rounds, and vice versa right before Sasuke’s fight with Gaara, he decides he doesn’t want to fight him during the chunin exams and he’d rather wait for Naruto to learn a new jutsu to rival his own? Hmm that doesn’t sound right.

I’m pretty sure Sasuke wouldn’t care where he fights Naruto, he’s not picky. Plus Naruto would want to fight him regardless of where they are.

Not to mention, if Naruto and Sasuke were about to fight in the chunin exams and Sasuke decides to give up, I doubt Sasuke would be happy about letting Naruto win when he had a chance to beat him, nor would he want to bring dishonour to the Uchiha name.

Plus, they are both ninja. To be a ninja is to endure.

If you’re trying to suggest Sasuke doesn’t want to take on a jinchuriki then he shouldn’t be fighting Gaara, at this point I’d say that Naruto at least had a bit more restraint over unleashing Kurama whereas Gaara ended up unleashing Shukaku.
