Konoha.
The forest behind the Hokage mountain,
"Fire Style! Fire Ball Jutsu!!"
Sasuke quickly made several hand signs as he took a deep breath, and the fire roared out from his mouth, rushing towards the figure standing before.
The figure looked around 10 years old, he had white hair spiked up and was pretty tall for his age, and a dark blindfold covered his eyes completely.
He was wearing an all-black high-necked jacket with matching pants and dark dress boots.
The sea of fire enveloped Gojo, who didn't dodge at all.
Finally, the flames went out, and in the helpless eyes of Sasuke, a figure unscratched appeared.
"I still can't even touch this guy"
Sasuke thought with an annoying expression on his face as no matter how much he wanted to hit this annoying guy, he still couldn't even touch him.
"Haha~ you indeed have gotten better, Sasuke, but if you want to hit me, you would have to train hundred years more"
Tch…
Gojo laughed as he teased Sasuke, who snorted and turned his head to the side.
"This kid's growth is remarkable"
Gojo looked at Sasuke before him as his talent really surprised him a lot.
Sasuke can now calmly face his murderous aura and has significantly improved in Taijutsu.
Gojo didn't have any Ninjutsu to teach Sasuke, so he only strengthened his mental quality and somewhat helped him in Taijutsu.
The current Sasuke, despite only being 9 years can easily fight toe to toe with a Chunin now.
The only regret is that during this training, Sasuke couldn't awaken Sharingan once again.
It's been a year since he came to this world.
During this whole year, Gojo didn't get lazy as he trained every morning along with Lee on the Hokage Mountain.
Due to his inhuman training routine, which even Lee couldn't follow, Gojo was able bring his body back to 20% of his peak strength in just one year.
Now his body is strong enough to withstand the continuous use of Mugen along with the Reversed Cursed Technique that helps him keep his brain fresh.
After all, without Reverse Cursed Technique, his brain will fry from the continuous use of Mugen.
Now infinity surrounds his body every moment, even while sleeping, so he doesn't need to worry about sneak attacks anymore.
But other techniques like blue, red, purple, and domain expansion, he still can't use unscrupulously.
"Well~, Sasuke, it's about time your training ends; you should have noticed it already; I don't have anything to teach you about Ninjutsu and Genjutsu"
Gojo explained the reason patiently for not training him anymore as there was nothing left for him to teach.
If Sasuke had cursed energy, he would have taught him how to use it, but sadly he doesn't, and about Chakra, Gojo can't teach him anything.
He is just an orphan; the only Jutsu he knows are Clone, Transformation, and Substitution, taught at the academy.
His understanding of Chakra is not enough to teach Sasuke, so he decided to end the training and leave Sasuke independently.
Sasuke hearing his words, had a sad look in his eyes, but he quickly tried to cover it up as he didn't want to look weak in front of this annoying guy.
"That's it~ you don't need to come here anymore, Sasuke, goodbye!!"
Gojo chuckled, seeing Sasuke trying to act tough, but he didn't tease him this time and turned around and left.
"Thank… You!!"
Gojo, who had just taken two steps, stopped suddenly after hearing these two words.
"No need to thank me~; I charge you after all"
Gojo didn't look back at Sasuke, and after being silent for a moment, he smiled as he started walking again, took out a wallet, and shook it high.
"This guy…!!"
Sasuke looked in the Ninja Bag, and after not finding the wallet, he remained silent for a few moments, and a smile appeared on his face.
----------------------------
Hokage Building.
Hokage Office.
On the Hokage seat, wearing the Hokage Robe, Sarutobi, with the smoke pipe in his mouth, processed the documents placed on the desk before him.
Knock… Knock…
"Come in!"
Suddenly the door was knocked as Sarutobi put down the document in his hand and said lightly.
"Lord 3rd!!"
Iruka strode in as he arrived before and bowed in respect.
"Oh, it's you, Iruka… how are your days going in the academy? I hope those kids don't bother you too much"
Sarutobi held the smoke pipe in his right hand as he looked at Iruka with a smile on his old face.
"Ha...Ha… how can it be lord 3rd, all of them are very obedient!!"
Iruka gave a dry laugh and praised the students, but his facial expressions said the opposite.
"Hmm~ Hyuga Neji, Gojo Satoru and Sasuke Uchiha"
After some greetings, Iruka gave this year's academy report to Sarutobi, who looked at it carefully and was surprised after seeing another name in the list of top performers.
"What do you think about this Gojo Satoru?"
After looking at the report for a while, Sarutobi looked at Iruka as he knew no one should know better than Iruka about Gojo as a teacher.
"Lord 3rd, in terms of talent, he is no less than Neji and Sasuke; it's just his mischievous personality that holds him back; other than that, Satoru is an excellent kid"
Iruka, without hesitation, told Sarutobi his opinion on Gojo.
"Haha~ everyone around this age is mischievous; remember how you used to pull a prank on others"
Sarutobi looked at Iruka and reminded him of his past mistakes.
"Lord 3rd, I…"
Iruka was a bit embarrassed being pointed out like this by Sarutobi.
"Haha… no need to be embarrassed, Iruka… you have done an excellent job; they are the future of Konoha; I leave them in your care"
Sarutobi didn't embarrass him anymore and praised him for the excellent Job.
"I will, Lord 3rd"
Iruka nodded with a serious expression on his face as he left the room, and Sarutobi again began to process the documents before him.
