Kakashi's single visible eye widened slightly, his expression turning strange.
As a seasoned connoisseur of certain literature, he naturally recognized exactly what Naruto was holding.
He'd seen plenty of female characters wearing outfits like this in his research materials...
But the key point is…
'Why the hell are you pulling out a JK skirt right now?!'
'Are you asking Sasuke to wear it now!?'
Kakashi stole a glance at Sasuke, and his brain couldn't but conjure an image of Sasuke in that short skirt...
'Hiss…'
'No!'
'My eyes!!!'
Kakashi barely got halfway through the mental image before forcibly shutting it down, and his body shivered uncontrollably.
The way he looked at Naruto grew increasingly disturbed.
Meanwhile, Sasuke stared at the cloth in Naruto's hand in silence for a long time, his face cycling through shades of pale and green.
Although he is not as 'experienced' as Kakashi...
He can still see that this piece of cloth is very improper!
'Also, wasn't this skirt meant for girls?!'
After a long silence, Sasuke finally looked up and said to Naruto, "Naruto, this is not funny."
There was some anger in his tone.
If it's Kakashi who takes out this thing, he would've already smacked him with his Heave Xuan Ruler.
"No!"
"Sasuke, trust me!"
"Wear this, and you'll evolve your Sharingan."
Naruto said seriously, his expression was extremely sincere at this moment.
After saying that, he solemnly placed the skirt and over-the-knee stockings on the table, then turned around and sighed softly, "Sasuke…"
"We've known each other for so long... I never thought you'd see me this way."
"Sigh…"
"Have you forgotten what you once told me?"
"That you'd do anything to get stronger..."
Naruto's tone sounded very sad, and after hearing this, Sasuke's mind began replaying the memories of the two of them spending time together over the years.
Except…
Kakashi noticed that Naruto's shoulders were trembling slightly.
'This guy is obviously trying to hold back his laughter!!'
Sasuke looked at the things on the table with great embarrassment, his face showing a conflicted expression.
He did trust Naruto very much, but he also knew the guy's sense of humor.
What if this was just an elaborate prank to make him cross-dress and humiliate him?
The risk was way too high, so Sasuke didn't dare to listen to Naruto and change rashly.
To put it bluntly, Sasuke didn't dare to gamble.
'But...'
'Three-tomoe Sharingan…'
'It's just too tempting!'
Finally, after a brutal mental struggle, Sasuke gritted his teeth and said, "Everything is for the sake of becoming stronger!"
"Naruto... I'll trust you this once."
"But…!"
Sasuke paused here, pointed at the things on the table, and said with fierce expression. "You two must change too!!"
In order to prevent Naruto from making fun of himself, Sasuke decided to drag these two guys with him.
'If everyone wore this, there shouldn't be too many problems, right?'
Kakashi: "???"
Naruto was slightly stunned when he heard Sasuke's words, then turned around and patted his shoulder with a smile.
"Don't worry!"
"I know you have concerns..."
"But it's okay. To help you awaken your eyes, Kakashi-sensei and I will gladly join you."
Naruto smiled radiantly, looking extremely reliable, while his other hand dug into Kakashi's shoulder.
"Wait, Naruto, is this method of yours even..."
Kakashi suddenly spoke at this time, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Naruto with a righteous look on his face.
"Damn it, Kakashi-sensei!"
"Please don't underestimate the bond between us!"
Kakashi, whose mind had not yet recovered, was forced to agree.
Of course…
The main reason was that Kakashi noticed that there was something wrong with Naruto's eyes.
At this moment, the two of them made eye contact, and after a brief two-second exchange, they nodded firmly at the same time.
In order to reassure Sasuke, Naruto took out two more sets, gave one to Kakashi, and took another set for himself.
Sasuke finally felt relieved when he heard Naruto say this.
'Hmph…'
'Since they will also wear these, Naruto wouldn't be playing tricks on me, right?'
The three of them blushed while holding their JK skirts and over-the-knee stockings. Then, they looked at each other, and ran to their respective rooms to change clothes without saying a word.
…
After changing into the miniskirt, Sasuke looked down at the miniskirt and the black stockings that just reached his knees, and he instantly frowned.
Even his brain started to feel dizzy.
'I... what the hell am I doing!?'
At this moment, every fiber of Sasuke's being screamed in protest and his hand that was holding the doorknob could not move.
After standing there for a few minutes, Sasuke decided not to look down at his miniskirt anymore. As long as he kept his eyes fixed forward, he could deceive himself that he was not wearing a miniskirt.
Worried that he would be laughed at by the other two if he went out first, Sasuke shouted towards the door, "Have you guys changed yet?"
"Done."
"Ready."
After hearing their responses, Sasuke immediately felt a bit better.
After all, Naruto and Kakashi also experienced this humiliation together.
"Alright, let's come out together!"
Sasuke stood by the door and shouted inside.
After getting their confirmation, three door-opening sounds echoed through the room...
Sasuke's face was slightly red as he held the skirt with both hands, and he walked into the living room shyly.
However…
The moment Sasuke saw Naruto and Kakashi, his brain completely froze and his mind went completely blank.
Naruto and Kakashi hadn't changed into the miniskirts at all and they were still wearing the same outfits as before.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze...
The two glanced at Sasuke, who was wearing the miniskirt and stockings, and their shoulders began to tremble wildly uncontrollably.
They even occasionally made stifled 'kukuku' sounds.
It could be said that they were already being extremely considerate by not bursting out laughing on the spot.
Sasuke stared at the two expressionlessly, not reacting at all. He mechanically walked to the table and picked up his Heavy Xuan Ruler.
Sszzzt…
Then, a crackle of lightning echoed through the living room as Sasuke raised his Heavy Xuan Ruler high, swinging it at the two.
"You two!!!"
"Damn bastards!!"
"I'll turn all your laughter into screams!!!"
"Go to hell!!!"
Arcs of electricity flashed all over the furious Sasuke's body, and even the weapon in his hand was covered with a layer of electricity.
Sasuke didn't even realize that his current condition was many times stronger than before.
But right now, he didn't care.
He just wanted the white-haired and yellow-haired creatures in front of him to die by his sword.
"Wait!!"
"You idiot! Calm down first!!"
"Didn't you realize that you have mastered the Lightning Attribute Chakra?"
Seeing Sasuke raising his sword to chop him, Naruto hurriedly tried to reason with him.
Kakashi also stepped forward and began to persuade, "Yeah! You've definitely gotten much stronger!"
"Kukuku…"
After hearing what the two said, Sasuke's expression softened slightly. He put down the Heavy Xuan Ruler that he was holding high, and then began to feel the power in his body.
Only then did he realize that his Lightning Attribute Chakra was flowing smoother than ever, with no blockages at all.
The most important thing is…
It finally doesn't singe his hair anymore!
Sszzztt…
Sasuke, crackling with electricity, moved slightly and was pleasantly surprised to find that his speed had increased to the point of leaving afterimages.
When Naruto noticed that Sasuke's expression had eased a lot, he began to praise Sasuke again.
"So strong, Sasuke!"
"You're definitely the strongest in the Uchiha Clan!"
Kakashi nodded in agreement beside him.
"True."
"Out of all the Uchiha I've seen, you're the strongest."
After hearing the two people's praise, the corners of Sasuke's mouth moved up and down several times, and he couldn't suppress his smile at all.
'Naruto actually praised me!!'
'Has he finally acknowledged my strength?'
'And the praise from the genius Jonin, Kakashi-sensei…'
'They actually called me the strongest Uchiha…'
Sasuke had always placed great importance on his clan's honor.
Now that both Naruto and Kakashi praised him as the Uchiha Clan and called him the strongest, he could no longer suppress the ecstasy in his heart.
He put his hands on his hips, slightly closed his legs, swayed the skirt a few times, then burst into wild laughter, "Hahahahaha!"
"Of course! We, the Uchiha Clan, are the strongest!"
Naruto felt that the heat was not enough, so he pulled out a sailor uniform and pink girl's underwear, walked up to Sasuke and winked at him, "Sasuke, look."
"You mastered the Lightning Attribute Chakra right after you put on a miniskirt..."
"If you put this on, won't you awaken the three-tomoe directly?"
Sasuke rolled his eyes and felt that what Naruto said seemed to make sense. After hesitating for a moment, he agreed.
'Since I'm already wearing a short skirt, why should I mind wearing one more top?
…
Outside the door…
Sakura sat at the entrance, listening to the noises coming from the villa, completely unable to imagine what was happening.
She only heard Sasuke shouting something about the Uchiha being the strongest...
And Naruto saying something about success…
'Could it be...?'
'Sasuke really succeeded?'
When she eavesdropped at the door for a while and found that there was no movement inside, Sakura decided to go in and take a look.
She gently turned the doorknob and opened the door, only to witness a scene she would never forget for the rest of her life...
