"Do you want to see the misfortune of fate of your future best friend" Mirai asked. Sasuke who had only asked out loud was surprised and raised his eyebrows high
"Misfortune huh? How unfortunate could he be. . . " Mirai interpreted Sasuke's challenging-like words as an acceptance. The surrounding image therefore changed from the empty white room to the scene of the Nine-Tails attacking Konoha on Naruto's birthday
The scene showed Tobi's preparation confronting the 4th Hokage then cutting to the sealing ritual ground where Sasuke saw the 4th Hokage Naruto's father and Kushina Naruto's mother being pierced by the claws of the Nine-Tailed Fox before the 4th Hokage sealed the light part of it into Naruto and sealed the dark side into himself. And Naruto's parents died right there at the ritual ground along with the image of Tobi laughing in the shadows and leaving
"His parents. . . sacrificed their lives for him huh" Sasuke said softly with a slight sadness while watching the childhood images of Naruto who had no friends to play with because parents forbade them from getting involved with the Nine-Tailed Fox in disguise which was contrary to the 4th Hokage's last words who wanted Naruto to be a hero of the village
"Just like me huh. That guy. . . And the reason why he's not skilled at jutsu is because the Nine-Tails seal interfered with the Chakra Control right?" Mirai nodded in agreement
"I want to recommend that you make friends with Naruto help each other train better than being hostile until the end of the 4th Great Ninja War because I want to see a change. Maybe you and Naruto can get along well be suitable sparring partners and become skilled in ninja arts both Ninjutsu and Taijutsu faster than before"
"Changing the future huh. . . Interesting. How old was I when I graduated from the Ninja Academy in the future you came from?"
"12 years old"
"If I want to graduate sooner . . . I have to practice hard huh. Can you be my teacher?"
"I can. . . Then from now on call me Teacher Mirai"
"Yes"
After that Sasuke started training Ninjutsu with Mirai inside Mirai's personal dimension. Even though physical skills training here would not affect the real body much the Chakra Control training did affect the real body. And importantly time moves slower inside this dimension than outside at a rate of 1 : 4. This means that training here for 4 hours the outside time only passes by 1 hour
Sasuke trained his skills in Chakra Control Hand Signs Shuriken throwing and Taijutsu inside his own residence throughout the period that the doctor allowed him to take a study break until the new semester started. So he returned to school as usual amidst the glances and close-range gossip about the tragedy of that night
But his mind was already strong from Mirai's advice so he was not bothered and set a goal to befriend the person with an unfortunate destiny like him and even worse because he had never received warmth from his parents had no kind older brother no one supported him only people who disliked him
That's right he planned to befriend Naruto! This is a major turning point in the history of the legend of "Naruto the Ninja Sage" which he doesn't know what kind of future this change will lead to whether good or bad but Mirai is ready to take a chance to satisfy his mind and his desire to see Naruto and Sasuke as partners going on missions together since childhood rather than coordinating only at the end of the war
Today in the Taijutsu subject Sasuke who had just returned to school had to participate in a Taijutsu match to measure how much they had developed during the break. And his opponent by fate was Naruto
Naruto was provocative challenging that he had practiced Ninjutsu throughout the break not lying sick in the hospital for months so he would definitely win but Sasuke was furious at being accused of lying sick in the hospital for months so he punched Naruto fully in the stomach causing Naruto to fly out of the ring hitting Choji who was secretly eating snacks and all his snacks spilled out of the bag
"Sorry Choji I will buy you 2 bags to compensate you after this" Sasuke said while bowing his head to Choji who was lying pouting staring at the snacks that he had just opened the bag and eaten less than 5 pieces piled on top of Naruto who was repeatedly punching Choji's stomach
"Hey hey get up you're heavyyyyy"
"Hmph Even punching him full force didn't knock him out. He's really tough huh" Sasuke said softly before smiling faintly. Perhaps if he didn't know the truth behind that night he might not feel happy with school as he used to be sinking only into revenge until he forgot to look at his fellow villagers like this forgot his original intention of wanting to be the "Police" to maintain peace in the village
"Thank you Mirai"
