The next day.
Naruto skipped school that day and went to the Red Revolutionary Army's research institute instead.
The institute had been established a few months earlier to study the different systems, technologies, and other aspects of various worlds.

Though he had always looked down on weak humans... he also envied them deeply.
Humans could play freely with their companions. But Tailed Beasts? They could only live in solitude forever.
Most importantly, after becoming human,
