"If that's the case, I'll teach you another technique—the advanced version of the Rasengan."
Hearing that Shisui was going to teach him a technique even stronger than the Rasengan, Sasuke looked at him expectantly, his eyes practically turning into stars.
"Really, Big Brother Shisui? If I learn a technique stronger than the Rasengan, I'll be able to beat Naruto." Ever since he'd first met Naruto, Sasuke hadn't managed to defeat him in a proper match. Even with Shisui's guidance, the best he could do was fight Naruto to a draw.
Watching the excited Sasuke, Shisui couldn't help feeling sorry for Indra's reincarnation. It seemed that Indra's side had rarely won in the struggles between Indra and Asura.
In the original story, Sasuke had been able to gain the upper hand against Naruto in their early encounters. But now, Shisui's influence on the course of events had led Naruto to show strength far beyond that of his peers at an early age, leaving Sasuke unable to gain even the slightest advantage.
That was why Sasuke was so excited at the thought of finally having a chance to beat Naruto.
