Chapter 57 - 56: Target Gaara, Attempt To Control The Tailed Beast

Ohnoki: "Sarutobi, would you like to guess why Uchiha Sasuke is trying to control the Nine Tails' Chakra?"

Orochimaru: "Sensei Sarutobi, are you panicking?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."

He really started to panic.

The Sasuke from the parallel world has always been hostile to the Sarutobi clan ever since he returned to the Uchiha clan at the age of 9!

Seeing Konohamaru, expecting him to get beaten.

He also provoked the relationship between Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhihong.

He has no respect for him, the Third Hokage, in his heart!

If Sasuke were allowed to gain the power of the Nine Tails, his other self in that world would truly be in danger!

["Sharingan can control the Tailed Beast Chakra, but can it control the Tailed Beast itself?"]

[Sasuke frowned in thought. ]

[If any pair of Three Tomoe Sharingan could control the Tailed Beast, then the Uchiha clan would have completely conquered the world during the Warring States period! ]

[The Senju clan would have been overwhelmed. ]

["Maybe... it has something to do with the power of the eyes. You need the eye power to reach a certain level to control the Tailed Beast?"]

[Sasuke guessed to himself. ]

[He had recently felt his Sharingan's eye power gradually improving. ]

[It seems that even with the Three Tomoe, Sharingan's eye power varies and continues to change. ]

[For example, he discovered during daily sparring with Mr. Kakashi that Mr. Kakashi's Three Tomoe Sharingan seems to have much greater eye power than his own. ]

[If your eye power reaches a certain limit, you might be able to use the Sharingan to control the Tailed Beast and its power! ]

Senju Tobirama: "Damn it, this brat really is after the power of the Tailed Beast!"

What Sasuke intends to do with the Tailed Beast's power is clear as day!

Onoki: "To control the Tailed Beast, you might need to reach the level of Mangekyō Sharingan, like Uchiha Madara."

Uchiha Fugaku: "Hatake Kakashi's Sharingan has higher eye power than Sasuke's? A non-Uchiha can develop the Sharingan to that extent!"

Uchiha Obito: "..."

Heh!

Sasuke feeling that Kakashi's Sharingan has higher eye power is normal.

Kakashi's Sharingan, though appearing as Three Tomoe, is actually a Mangekyō!

It's just that Kakashi is so oblivious. He awakened the Mangekyō over ten years ago, yet he hasn't realized it even now.

["But doesn't the Jinchūriki die if the Tailed Beast leaves its body? Even if it's controlled without leaving the body, it would still probably hurt the Jinchūriki..."]

[Thinking this, the corners of Sasuke's mouth twitched.]

[If the Nine Tails' Jinchūriki were someone else, that would be fine. ]

[For revenge, Sasuke would feel guilty about hurting a stranger who is the Nine Tails' Jinchūriki, but he'd probably still do it. ]

[But the Nine Tails' Jinchūriki is Naruto...]

[Although Naruto is annoying, has no common sense, always drags him down, and constantly provokes him... this guy is, maybe, well, still his friend. ]

[Hurting Naruto for his own revenge, he couldn't bear it. ]

["Well, let's forget about it for now. Whether the Sharingan can control the Tailed Beast is still uncertain. Besides, there's still a One Tail in the village now."]

[Sasuke comforted himself.]

[He looked again at the massive mist Chakra around him.]

[These infiltrated Chakras should interfere with Naruto's Chakra control, right?]

[No wonder Naruto's Chakra control ability is so poor!]

[Forget it, I'll help that idiot.]

["Hey, Nine Tails, deal with your own mess."]

[Sasuke used the Sharingan to control the escaping Nine Tails' Chakra, sending it back inside the red prison.]

["Damn brat, don't let me see you again!"]

[The Nine Tails roared angrily as Sasuke's figure disappeared.]

Senju Hashirama: "As I expected, the boy is still good at heart; he wouldn't hurt his comrade!"

Namikaze Minato: "He even helped Naruto control the overflowing Nine Tails' Chakra. Over the next while, Naruto's Chakra control ability should improve rapidly."

Uzumaki Kushina: "If only Mikoto's Sasuke were a girl, they'd make a good pair with my little Naruto."

Uchiha Mikoto: "..."

Uchiha Sasuke: "?! Who's talking about dating that idiot?"

Uzumaki Naruto: "You're the idiot! Stupid Sasuke, are you saying I'm always lagging behind?!"

Uchiha Sasuke: "You're the idiot. That's what I said in another world! And yes, I still feel the same!"

Jiraiya: "Haha! The relationship between these two little guys is still strong! In that other world, there's no need to worry about Sasuke hurting Naruto."

Temari: "But it looks like he's targeting Gaara!"

Gaara: "..."

He felt a little nervous.

He wasn't sure what his future in the other world would hold.

[After helping Naruto finish answering the question.]

[Next, the examiner Morino Ibiki announced the tenth question. Candidates had to make a choice: if they didn't answer, they would leave the exam immediately; if they answered and failed, they would be banned from the Chūnin exam forever, and if even one team member failed, the whole team would be banned.]

[Under the pressure from Morino Ibiki, candidates kept choosing to quit.]

[Sasuke looked at the cold-faced Morino Ibiki and understood.]

[He had heard from Mr. Kakashi, who is the head of Konoha's Torture Department, that Morino Ibiki is best at creating psychological pressure.]

[It seemed the so-called tenth question was the choice itself.]

[Realizing this, Sasuke used the Sharingan's illusion to send messages to Sakura and Naruto, telling them not to quit.]

[Sure enough.]

[After no one else chose to quit, Morino Ibiki announced the results of the exam: everyone who stayed passed the first test.]

["..."]

[Sasuke looked at his completed test paper.]

[Then why did I work so hard to answer the questions, even helping Naruto? What was the point?]

[It was pointless!]

[Mitarashi Anko, the second examiner, burst into the examination room and announced the location for the second exam tomorrow: the Forest of Death.]

[After walking out of the exam room, Sasuke remembered something and said to Naruto:]

["Naruto, your Chakra control should be good enough now. Go back and train and master a single-person Rasengan as soon as possible."]

[Naruto scratched his head, puzzled: "Eh? Now that you mention it, I do find it easier to control my Chakra..."]

[How did that happen? What's going on?]

["Stop overthinking, just go back and train," Sasuke rolled his eyes and said.]
