Saiyans in the Naruto world

Orochimaru muttered to himself. If anyone in Konoha wanted Karot to return the most, Orochimaru would definitely be one of them.

Orochimaru tapped the table rhythmically with his hand. As the captain of the ANBU, Minato knew things were about to go wrong. Every time Orochimaru made this gesture, Minato would feel more tired than usual.

Minato became Orochimaru's ANBU captain because Orochimaru could make Konoha stronger. Although he wouldn't become Hokage himself, Minato was very happy to contribute his strength to Konoha's prosperity. However, Orochimaru was different; he used people to the point of exhaustion! There were no social security benefits back then, and no one could understand the hardships Minato endured.

"Minato, you're in charge of the rest of the work for today!"

After saying that, Orochimaru immediately dispelled the clone technique. Even though Orochimaru was far away in the laboratory, he learned that Karot had returned.

"are you back?"

Orochimaru licked his lips and then went back to his research.

"Like this again?"

When Minato saw that Orochimaru had once again left him with this heavy workload, he couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. Ever since Orochimaru learned of Minato's ability to handle government affairs, he often left Minato with these tasks, ostensibly for training, but in reality, it was to extend Minato's working hours without paying overtime.

Minato always came home looking exhausted, leading Kushina to believe he'd found someone new. But Orochimaru was different from the Third Hokage, and Kushina didn't want to risk offending him. So Minato's life was truly miserable. Minato secretly vowed to become the Fifth Hokage, then he could hire a few secretaries and comfortably retire.

Carrot and Kakuzu finally arrived at the Hatake family's doorstep. Nothing had changed; it looked exactly the same as when they left.

"Dong dong."

After Carrot knocked on the door, it opened shortly afterward.

"who are you looking for?"

The servants of the Hatake family opened the gate and, seeing two people at the door, asked a question.

Don't you remember me?

Carrot said.

Upon hearing Carrot's words, the servant glanced at Carrot.

"Young Master Carrot, is that you?"

The servant said with a look of surprise.

"It's me, I'm back."

"That's great, you're back. The head of the family must be very happy."

The servants quickly made way for Carrot to enter.

"Go and prepare a guest room. My friend is going to stay here for a while."

"Yes, Master."

The servant acknowledged and left.

"Carrot, your house is quite big!"

"Of course, after all, our Hatake clan is a prominent family in Konoha."

Carrot speaks of his family with great pride, for this place holds the most beautiful memories of his life.

"Is it just that they're ranked? Three Kage-level ninjas from one family is an incredibly powerful existence in the entire ninja world. Some small ninja villages don't even have a single Kage-level ninja."

"What's more, with someone as overpowered as you, your Hatake clan can practically roam the ninja world with impunity."

These thoughts only existed in Kakuzu's mind.

Carrot arrived in the courtyard and saw Hatake Sakumo brewing tea. Carrot remembered that every time he returned from a mission, Hatake Sakumo would be there, brewing tea and waiting for him. Waiting for his child to return home.

Kakuzu clearly sensed that Carrot's breathing had quickened, and his pace quickened as well.

"Father, I'm back."

"It's good to be back. Please have a seat."

"Ok."

The father and son's conversation was brief and direct, because the way they expressed their feelings was very reserved.

How's this tea?

Carrot and Kakuzu picked up their teacups and began to sip.

Taking a small sip, the bitterness of the tea stimulates the taste buds, and in an instant, the sweetness of the tea fills the mouth.

"Good tea."

Carrot showed an expression of enjoyment. Because of Hatake Sakumo, Carrot often drank tea and gradually developed some knowledge about tea. This time, he also brought back teas from different places for Hatake Sakumo to taste.

Kakuzu, however, drank it down in one gulp and found the tea extremely bitter, far less palatable than alcohol.

"It seems you've had a good time these past few years!"

Hatake Sakumo noticed that Carrot's body was even more robust than before. He knew the boy must be doing well, which had caused him constant worry. Although he knew Carrot's strength meant he wouldn't be in any danger, as a father, Hatake Sakumo couldn't bear to leave his son wandering alone. This had nothing to do with strength; it was the bond of family.

“Father, don’t you know me? I’m so good at letting myself suffer outside, it’s only others who suffer.”

"Yes, that other person is me."

Kakuzu felt he was the most wronged one. Why was he so famous in the underworld, and why was he targeted by Carrot, becoming Carrot's nanny and taking care of his food, clothing, and shelter?

"Yes, I don't know who you got your personality from."

Hatake Sakumo shook his head.

"Of course it's you, Father, after all, I am your son."

Carrot is good at flattery, but not everyone gets to enjoy it.

"Are you going out again this time you're back?"

Sakumo Hatake asked, naturally hoping that his children could all be by his side. Perhaps because he was getting older, Sakumo Hatake was now increasingly fond of his family's company, but he would not stand in the way of his children's paths.

"This time I need to get a good rest. After all, I've worked for so many years, and my body needs a break. These past few years, Carrot has either been fighting or on his way to fight. He deserves a good rest. A balance of relaxation and rest is the most scientific way to finish a battle."

In the ninja world, you still talk about science? Aren't you afraid the Sage of Six Paths will kick his coffin open and fight you?! Carrot has a scientist friend, so what's wrong with talking about science? Besides, even the Turtle School needs to rest properly.

"That's good."

"By the way, Kakashi is away on a mission. He'll be very happy to know you're back."

"I saw Kakashi, but he wasn't as happy to see me as you said! Father, Kakashi tried to hit me without saying a word. He has no respect for me as his older brother at all."

When Hatake Sakumo saw Carrot complaining, he couldn't help but think of something.

"You yourself are not acting like an older brother at all. You framed your younger brother, left without saying goodbye, and left behind a mess."

Under Sakumo Hatake's gaze, Carrot's voice grew softer and softer, after all, he knew his own situation.

Chapter 133 The Rebellion of the Land of Waves

at night.

Carrot lay on his bed.

"It's still so comfortable to lie in my own bed!"

To be honest, Carrot hasn't been able to sleep soundly away from home for years; he's not a big fan of different beds.

"It's so comfortable!"

"I woke up feeling refreshed and clear-headed, and before I knew it, it was noon," Carrot said after yawning. This was something Carrot hadn't expected; he found peace of mind at home.

"Young Master Carrot, you're awake. Shall I prepare lunch for you?"

The servant saw Carrot come downstairs and asked.

"Sure, I'm a little hungry. By the way, where did Father and my friend go?"

Carrot asked this question because he did not sense the presence of Sakumo Hatake and Kakuzu at home.

"The patriarch has gone fishing. Young master, your friend told you to tell him that he went out to find a way to make money after you wake up."

The servant replied respectfully.

"Then you should prepare lunch first!"

"Yes, please wait."

The servant went to prepare Carrot's lunch, knowing full well how much his young master ate.

"Father has taken up fishing; I wonder if he'll come back empty-handed!"

"Kakuzu is really something, he doesn't even know how to take a break. You can never earn all the money in the world."

The sound of servants serving food interrupted Carrot's thoughts. Carrot really wanted to slap himself; how could he be distracted while enjoying a meal! How unprofessional!

While Karot was leisurely enjoying his time, Kakashi was enduring the grueling life of raising a child. He was injured but still had to oversee his students' training. Today was also the last day of their mission; once the bridge was completed, they could go home, and Kakashi could finally end this period of torment.

"Kakashi-sensei, will that ruthless Zabuza show up today?"

After hitting Sakura with his big forehead, he asked, "Zabuza really gave me a huge shock that day."

"They're bound to appear. Those bounty hunter ninjas won't give up until they complete their mission."

Kakashi had great faith in his own deductions.

Hearing Kakashi's words, Sakura looked hesitant, while Naruto and Sasuke seemed eager to try. This wasn't surprising, given that a young girl like Sakura had been traumatized by the threat of death. Only strength could overcome that trauma.

"Slow down, slow down."
