Saiyans in the Naruto world

"Whose enemy did you get this from? Was he from Konoha?"

Orochimaru deduced from Hashirama's cells that Karot's opponent was someone from Konoha, but no matter how smart he was, he couldn't figure out who that person was.

"He is Uchiha Madara."

As soon as Karot finished speaking, the three people present were stunned. Every Konoha ninja knew this name very well: the Asura of the Shinobi World. Whenever Hashirama Senju was mentioned, Madara Uchiha was an unavoidable figure. He had left a deep mark on Konoha.

In particular, Shisui had the name Uchiha Madara deeply ingrained in his mind. From the time the clan members could remember, the elders in the clan constantly instilled in them how powerful Uchiha Madara was.

"But wasn't Madara Uchiha dead? He fought against the First Hokage and was killed by him."

Shisui voiced his doubts, while Orochimaru remained silent, for he knew there were many ways to slow down aging.

"Shisui, you should know that your Uchiha clan has a forbidden Sharingan technique called Izanagi, which changes the reality that is about to happen at the cost of one Sharingan. Madara Uchiha used this forbidden technique to change his fate of death and deceive the First Hokage."

Everyone learned from Karot how Madara Uchiha escaped from the First Hokage, and they couldn't help but marvel at how the Uchiha's scheme had fooled everyone.

"Senior, is he still alive?"

This is their biggest concern.

"Yeah, still alive."

"Even you, senior, can't deal with him?"

"It's not that I can't handle him, it's that I need him to live."

Karot told Orochimaru and Shisui about his cooperation with Madara. He also revealed the Uchiha clan's true intentions.

"What a terrifying opponent! To actually attempt such a ninjutsu, Madara Uchiha is a madman."

Even the usually composed Orochimaru couldn't help but swear.

"Uchiha Madara was also a pitiful person who was fooled."

At this point, Carrot continued.

"Oh why?"

Orochimaru really got interested when this was mentioned; it seems everyone is always interested in other people's gossip.

Carrot didn't remember to answer. He glanced at Dou, and in a flash, Dou fainted. Then, an aura emanated from his body, forming an energy shield that isolated the four of them from the outside world.

Seeing Carrot's series of actions, Orochimaru and Shisui took the matter even more seriously.

"Now that's good, no one will be able to hear our conversation."

"To say that Madara is a pitiful person, we have to start from the very beginning, from the origin of chakra."

"Orochimaru-senpai, you should know him, right?"

Orochimaru nodded and said.

"Hmm, I've looked through all sorts of documents, and the power that humans used in the past wasn't chakra. Chakra seems to have suddenly appeared in the ninja world. I can't find any origin for it."

"Orochimaru-senpai is right, he appeared suddenly."

"It was brought by the Sage of Six Paths' mother."

"What?" X2

Orochimaru and Shisui were both shocked by Karot's words; they had never imagined that the source of chakra would be like this.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki, the mother of the Sage of Six Paths, was from the Otsutsuki clan on another planet. She came to this planet to absorb its energy and strengthen herself."

"Somehow, Kaguya Otsutsuki fell in love with a prince and had two children, one of whom was the Sage of Six Paths."

"Kaguya Otsutsuki planted a sacred tree of the Otsutsuki clan on the planet, which continuously absorbs the planet's energy. When the planet's energy is exhausted, the sacred tree will bear a fruit. Eating it will cause the Otsutsuki to evolve further."

"And what about this planet?"

Shisui asked, but Orochimaru's face darkened; he had already guessed it.

"It will become a dead star, devoid of any living thing."

"How cruel, to exchange a week's life for the evolution of one person."

Shisui and Orochimaru thought to themselves that although they were ruthless killers on the battlefield, they still possessed humanity and conscience. The Otsutsuki clan, on the other hand, had truly lost all humanity.

Chapter 54 The duel begins

Carrot ignored the two and continued speaking.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki's conspiracy was discovered by the three holy lands. The toad sage of the three holy lands bewitched the Sage of Six Paths and his brother to seal their mother in the moon in the sky. When Kaguya Otsutsuki was sealed, she gave birth to a third son."

"This third child sowed discord between the Sage of Six Paths and his sons, causing them to become enemies and resulting in the Sage of Six Paths' two sons constantly struggling in the cycle of reincarnation. Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha are the reincarnations of the Sage of Six Paths' sons."

“This, this…”

Shisui and Orochimaru were both terrified.

"The reason why the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha were so strong is because the son of the Sage of Six Paths was reincarnated with their chakra."

"No wonder."

Orochimaru suddenly realized why no one in the ninja world had ever reached the level of the First Hokage.

"Madara was deceived by Black Zetsu, who was Kaguya Otsutsuki's third child, and turned against the First Hokage, thus beginning another cycle."

"What is Black Zetsu's purpose in doing this? If it's just to avenge his mother, then the Sage of Six Paths is already dead."

Zhi Shui asked, utterly puzzled.

"Black Zetsu did it to save his mother. Who else said the Sage of Six Paths is dead?"

Carrot's words were astonishing.

"what!"

This time, not only Shisui, but even Orochimaru cried out.

"You two don't think I set up an energy shield for no reason, do you? It's all to prevent the Sage of Six Paths from living in the ninja world as a soul."

This bombshell news caused Orochimaru and Shisui's expressions to change drastically. A figure from mythology had been observing the developments in the ninja world.

"Black Zetsu deceived Madara Uchiha into collecting the Tailed Beasts, reviving the Ten-Tails, and becoming its Jinchūriki, reaching the Six Paths level. Then, using Madara as a vessel, he broke the seal and Kaguya descended. The Sage of Six Paths then arranged for his son to reincarnate and reseal Kaguya. The two used the ninja world as a chessboard and all living beings as pieces. Let's see who wins."

That's why I said Madara is a pitiful person, who was kept in the dark by Black Zetsu all along.

After Karot finished speaking, Shisui looked dejected, while Orochimaru, on the contrary, felt a sense of "my fate is in my own hands," his confusion completely dispelled. He was no longer satisfied with the status quo; he also wanted to become a Go player. He knew that Karot had told them all this because he had a solution.

"I think the Uchiha clan is about to pass away, and the Sage of Six Paths is also arranging for his son's reincarnation. We still have time to prepare."

"Shisui, I want you to keep a close watch on the whereabouts of all the Uchiha clan members who have awakened their Sharingan. Now that I have brought Obito back, Madara Uchiha will choose another one."

"And Orochimaru-senpai, you're about to take the Hokage position. That will make it easier for us to do many things."

Karot and Orochimaru plotted all night, devising plans for everything they could think of. Karot couldn't help anymore after that, as he revealed all the plot details he knew. Now, they could only rely on Orochimaru's intelligence, since it was better to let the Saiyans use their hands than their brains.

That night, Carrot didn't go home; instead, he trained in his private gravity chamber. It was a habit he'd developed—he felt uncomfortable if he didn't train for a day.

"Senior, it's almost noon."

As Carrot meditated, levitating in mid-air, he heard Uchiha Shisui's voice coming from the sound transmission stone. This was a device Orochimaru had specially developed for Carrot to access the internet, because once the gravity chamber was closed, outside sounds couldn't get in.

Carrot finished his work and stepped out of the warehouse. Shisui had already prepared hot water and food for Carrot to enjoy.

"It's so nice to have a caring and considerate younger brother!"

This is Carrot's reflection.

"I heard you're going to duel Minato?"

After finishing his experiment, Orochimaru came over and asked a question. Orochimaru took out a tea set and began to brew tea, which was one of the few interests that Karot knew Orochimaru had.

"Yes, if I don't agree to Minato-senpai's invitation, it would be disrespectful."

Carrot changed lanes while eating. If you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't be able to understand what he was saying.

"Then I'll go take a look too. After all, I also want to see your strength, Carrot."

Orochimaru took a sip of tea and said, his face showing no concern that Karot would lose.

"Perhaps, maybe Orochimaru-senpai will be disappointed."

"hope so."

Having learned the secrets of the ninja world, Orochimaru naturally hoped that Karot would become as strong as possible.

On a bright, sunny midday, the three of them emerged from Orochimaru's laboratory, one after the other. The scorching sun was blinding, and pedestrians hurried past. Only Carrot leisurely munched on an ice pop. The other two were unfazed; anyone else would have had diarrhea long ago. They genuinely admired Carrot's stomach.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Training Ground 66. There were quite a few people there: Sakumo Hatake, the father; Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Hokage; Danzo; Jiraiya; Tsunade; Minato's team; and finally, Kushina, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. The outer perimeter was filled with Anbu and Root members. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were ambushing Carrot and his group.

"Wow, it's so lively! So many people are coming. If we had known, we would have sold tickets. That way we could have earned a little extra money for our efforts."

"I'm very annoyed," Carrot said.

He approached his father, Hatake Sakumo, and asked.

"Father, what brings you here?"

“You didn’t come home last night. I asked Kakashi and found out you had a duel today. I’m here to support you.”

"Are you sure you didn't come here to see me embarrass myself?"

Carrot could tell at a glance that Sakumo Hatake had ill intentions.
