Mirai Sarutobi (猿飛ミライ, Sarutobi Mirai) is a kunoichi of Konohagakure's Sarutobi clan.
Background
Mirai as an infant with her mother.
Before her father Asuma died, Shikamaru Nara promised him that he would look after and train Mirai.[2]
Personality
As a two-year-old toddler, Mirai is outgoing and friendly to her parents' students, showing a special liking to Shikamaru, hugging upon seeing him and viewing him as a big brother. She also like to give others nicknames. As a kunoichi, Mirai is cheerful and energetic.
Appearance

Mirai is a young woman with long, unruly black hair and red, ringed irides both of which she inherited from her mother, while for the most part she strongly resembles her father. She wears the standard attire of the Konoha-nin inclusive of a green flack jacket over a black jumper and forehead protector.
As an infant, she wore a simple yellow kimono with blue trimmings, held closed by a white sash. At two, her hair grew a significant amount and has a short ponytail tied above her head. Mirai wore a tan outfit with lighter tan colour stripe trimmings wrapped around her outfit, in a similar manner of how her mother wore her previous outfit. She also wears pink shinobi sandals.
Abilities
Mirai is a capable kunoichi, being known for escorting the Seventh, as well as being chosen to protect the Sixth Hokage.[3] Stemming from her heritage, she is capable of using her parents abilities, such as using her chakra blades to perform Flying Swallow, and use Yin Release to perform Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death. She also knows a range of Wind and Fire Release techniques, one of which grants Mirai the ability to create a pillar of fire out of a small spark.[4]
