Sasuke leaned forward slightly, his hands clutching a pair of pink underwear behind his back. His usually composed face was flushed with embarrassment, and his brows were knitted together as he avoided eye contact.
Kakashi stood nearby, holding an identical pair of pink underwear, muttering something unintelligible under his breath. Naruto, meanwhile, held up a sailor uniform in front of Sasuke, trying—unsuccessfully—to suppress his laughter.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, and the three froze in place, their eyes widening in horror.
Sakura stood at the threshold, her expression rapidly shifting from shock to confusion and then to utter disbelief. The boy she admired—Uchiha Sasuke—was in a room with Kakashi-sensei and Naruto, and all three were involved in something beyond comprehension.
From where she stood, it looked like Naruto was holding up the sailor uniform to size it against Sasuke.
Sakura's thoughts raced: What is happening here?
Her eyes landed on Sasuke's flushed face and then to the pink underwear in his hand, and a realization hit her like a ton of bricks.
Oh no. He's even wearing girls' underwear... and it's pink!
"You... you..." Sakura stammered, her voice trembling as she struggled to process the scene before her. "What the hell are you doing!?"
Sasuke's face grew even redder, his eyes avoiding Sakura's in sheer mortification. He had finally mustered the courage to try on the ridiculous outfit, and the last thing he wanted was to be caught by her—of all people.
This is a nightmare, Sasuke thought, his mind a whirlwind of anger and embarrassment. Naruto... Kakashi-sensei... I'm going to kill you both!
Sakura's thoughts became a chaotic mix of emotions, shifting rapidly from confusion to anger, then regret. Why is Sasuke letting them do this? she wondered, her mind spiraling further into irrational conclusions. Why would he rather wear this... this... than look at me?
Her heart sank as she recalled Naruto's harsh words about her earlier. Maybe it's because I'm not as curvy as other girls... Maybe that's why...
Tears welled up in Sakura's eyes as she slammed the door shut, her back against it as she tried to calm herself down. "No... no... This has to be some Genjutsu from Kakashi-sensei. There's no way Sasuke would do something like this!"
She slid down the door, hugging her knees to her chest as her tears flowed freely. "Why... what's wrong with me? Why would Sasuke rather dress up like this than look at me...?"
In the room, Sasuke's embarrassment reached its boiling point. His eyes sharpened, and the double tomoe of his Sharingan spun rapidly in response to his heightened emotions. Without fully realizing it, his Sharingan evolved into the three-tomoe form, but he couldn't care less about that now.
Wearing girls' clothing was already mortifying enough, but to be caught by Sakura made it unbearable. His mind flashed back to Naruto and Kakashi's snickering, fueling his anger.
They're going to laugh at me for this forever, he thought bitterly. His frustration mounted until he could feel the heat rising to his head, blurring his vision.
This world... doesn't deserve to exist!
Without a second thought, Sasuke tore off the pink underwear with one hand, his eyes narrowing as his aura grew darker. "You want me to awaken my Sharingan like this? Is this your plan!?"
Naruto and Kakashi exchanged uneasy glances, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
"You... Did you at least unlock it?" Naruto asked nervously, his voice cracking.
"Shut up!" Sasuke roared, the electricity crackling around him as he grabbed the nearest object—a heavy ruler infused with lightning chakra. "Today, I'm going to kill you both!"
Naruto and Kakashi flinched, their instincts screaming at them to flee, but they were rooted to the spot.
Sasuke's patience had snapped. The sight of Naruto with his ridiculous sailor uniform and Kakashi still holding those pink underwear had pushed him over the edge. This wasn't just training—it was pure humiliation.
Sasuke swung the electrified ruler with terrifying force toward Naruto, but as it made contact, Naruto exploded into a puff of smoke.
A shadow clone?!
Kakashi's eyes widened as he realized Naruto had tricked them both. "Naruto... you didn't—"
"Uzumaki Naruto!!" Sasuke's scream was filled with rage, and he turned his attention to Kakashi. His look was pure murder, his Sharingan spinning rapidly.
Kakashi, now the sole target, held up his hands in surrender, trying to calm the enraged Uchiha. "Wait! Sasuke! This was all Naruto's idea, not mine!"
Sasuke's eyes narrowed as he gripped the ruler tighter. "Then why didn't you wear the skirt, sensei?"
Kakashi hesitated, glancing down at the pink underwear in his hand, which only made him laugh again. "Hahahahaha... Sorry, Sasuke... But you look... hahahaha!"
"Die!" Sasuke lunged at him, swinging the ruler with all his might.
Kakashi dodged the first blow, but the sheer force behind it shook the entire villa, knocking down furniture and cracking the walls. Sasuke, still clad in a short skirt and stockings, continued his relentless assault, his embarrassment only fueling his fury.
Meanwhile, Naruto watched from a nearby tree, grateful that he had the foresight to switch out with a clone. Kakashi-sensei... I'm really sorry. But it's better you than me...
As the villa echoed with the sounds of battle, Naruto decided it was best to make his exit. He activated his Space-Time Jutsu and disappeared back to his home, leaving Kakashi to fend for himself.
Later that night, Naruto lay in bed, reflecting on the day's events. He closed his eyes, feeling a twinge of guilt. "Kakashi-sensei... I really didn't mean for it to go this far..."
Naruto's consciousness drifted into his inner mindscape, where the Nine-Tails, Kurama, awaited him.
The massive fox was glaring at him, its eyes filled with an unusual intensity.
Naruto, catching sight of the half-eaten barbecue grill, gulped. "Big fox... what's wrong? Did I do something?"
Kurama continued to stare, his enormous eyes tracking Naruto's every move. After a long silence, the fox finally spoke. "Kid... that book you gave to the Uchiha brat today..."
Naruto froze, unsure where this was going.
Kurama's nostrils flared as he continued, "I just want to know... who the hell is this 'Uchiha Xiao Yan' you mentioned?"
The giant fox paused, his voice dripping with annoyance. "And for the record, I have absolutely no interest in that book!"
Naruto blinked in confusion. "Wait... Big fox, you're telling me you read it too?!"
Suddenly, it dawned on him—the implications of having both Sasuke and Kurama get hooked on the same novel. He could only imagine the chaos that would ensue.
"This is bad... Really bad..." Naruto whispered to himself, mentally preparing for the madness that was sure to follow.
