  • Mirai invites the adult Sasuke to accompany him, partly because he distrusts the unfamiliar Rinnegan user and wants to observe his abilities.
  • In the Land of Grass, Urashiki attacks local ninjas, extracting their Chakra with his fishing-hook weapon. After reading their memories, he learns that this timeline contains Naruto, a second Ten-Tails, and the previously unknown Fifth Hokage, Mirai.
  • Greedy at the prospect of obtaining both Naruto’s Nine-Tails and the Ten-Tails, Urashiki flies toward Konoha.
