"The gate of life opens."

Only Might Guy would use the Eight Gates technique to arm wrestle.

"Kakashi-senpai, is this really alright?"

Lee said to Kakashi. He was afraid that Guy might hurt him. After all, Kakashi was about the same age as him, and his strength couldn't be that much stronger. Getting hurt wouldn't be good.

"Don't worry! Kai knows what he's doing."

Kakashi also wanted to see his "older brother's" strength. The Kai test would be perfect.

"Not enough. This is still not enough. Kai, show me your strongest power."

Carrot also felt that Might Guy was too weak and wanted him to be strengthened.

"Okay. I'll grant your request."

Might Guy respects his opponent and will use his strongest abilities.

"The seventh gate, the Gate of Shock, opens."

Instantly, a large amount of blue gas erupted from Kai's body. The wooden stump shattered from Kai's power, but the two men's hands remained firmly clasped in mid-air.

"Not bad, your 'Surprise Gate' is much stronger than your father's. You truly deserve to be called a genius in physical combat, Kai."

Carrot praised Kai repeatedly.

This was the first time Kai had ever heard someone call him a genius. It would be a lie to say he wasn't happy. From childhood, everyone had looked at him with prejudice, belittled him, and said that someone without chakra couldn't be a ninja. He had put in so much effort into taijutsu, and he finally reaped the rewards. He rose to the rank of elite Jonin through his taijutsu.

"You still know my father?"

Kai asked.

"Of course, he was very skilled when we worked together to kill the Seven Shadows of the Mist."

"Impossible, I've never seen you before."

Might Guy looked incredulous, because he had been right next to Might Guy when he reached the pinnacle of his power and had never seen Carrot.

Carrot knew he had let something slip first.

"Oh, I remembered it wrong."

Carrot's clumsy attempt at concealment did not fool Matt Ke.

"Tell me, who exactly are you?"

Matt Kai pressed on, asking further questions.

"You want to know? I'll give you a chance if you beat me."

"Carrot said confidently."

"Okay. Ah..."

Matt Kai began to exert his power. The surging force instantly knocked down the surrounding trees and sent rocks flying.

"Get out of here quickly."

Kakashi reminded him.

Immediately, Xiao Li and the others moved away from the two people who were competing. No one expected that an ordinary arm-wrestling match would turn out like this.

"Wow, that boy is amazing! He was actually able to withstand Mr. Kai's power."

Xiao Li praised.

"You're wrong, Xiao Li. That boy hasn't even used his full strength yet."

Neji activated his Byakugan and observed that the boy in the vortex of power looked relaxed.

"How could that be? That's Teacher Kai."

Xiao Li looked incredulous. As Kai's student, Xiao Li knew better than anyone else about Teacher Kai's abilities.

Suddenly, Carrot looked up and glanced at Neji.

"Impossible, how come I'm looking at him?"

Neji looked completely taken aback and took a step back in fright. Seeing Neji's unusual behavior, Tenten said...

"What's wrong, Neji?"

"It's nothing, I just got a gust of wind."

Tian Tian naturally didn't notice that Carrot glanced at Neji, as if he had heard Neji's words.

"Kai, let's end this here!"

"Ok?"

Before Kai could react, Carrot had already pinned his hand to the ground.

"this?"

Before Kai could even accept it, he had already lost. Kai withdrew his "Gate of Shock" and stood there, stunned. He hadn't expected to lose, especially not in such a crushing way.

"You also practice taijutsu? I can't sense any chakra in you."

"Yes, I practice the Turtle Hermit School. It's a different school of thought."

"Wow, you're amazing! You're incredibly strong."

Kai did not regret his defeat, but instead praised his opponent's strength.

"I don't know your name yet. What's your name?"

“Carrot”.

"Haha, I met another martial arts master today. I'll reward myself by running a thousand laps around the village. Little Li, how do I get there?"

"Yes, Mr. Kai."

Then, under the watchful eyes of Carrot and Kakashi, Team Guy went off to run laps.

"Hahahahaha."

Carrot's laughter grew louder and louder.

"What an interesting person."

Kakashi ignored the laughing Karot and prepared to leave. Seeing Kakashi leave, Karot quickly followed. He had come specifically to find Kakashi, so he couldn't let him leave so easily.

"How long are you going to stay with me?"

Seeing that he couldn't shake off Karot, Kakashi stopped and asked.

"Isn't it because I wanted to go home with you?"

Karot explained the purpose of his trip: Naruto wasn't home, and he needed to find a place to rest.

"Are you going to my house?"

"No, it's about going back to our home. I'm Hatake too."

Chapter 73 The Masked Man's Test

Stepping into the Hatake family's house, Carrot was deeply moved. Although the house was well-organized, it lacked a sense of warmth and felt desolate.

"Don't you feel lonely living in such a big house all by yourself?"

"I'm used to being alone."

"Why don't you get married? Although you're a bit older, you have a house."

"What did you say?"

Kakashi was caught off guard by the change in topic surrounding Karot.

"I think Tsunade's assistant, Sakane, is quite nice. She's good-looking, has a good figure, and is a good person. Most importantly, she's unmarried."

Karot's analysis was so logical that he completely missed Kakashi's bewildered expression.

"How about I go and help you with the betrothal gifts? It's what I should do as an elder."

Carrot said, taking full responsibility.

"No, please don't! I'm afraid Lady Tsunade will beat me to death."

Kakashi stopped Carrot, who was trying to leave. This guy really does whatever comes to mind.

"Could you tell me about the stories in your timeline?"

Kakashi finally managed to stop Carrot. Since they didn't know each other well, Kakashi tried to start a conversation with Carrot, which was also a way of gathering information.

Karot didn't think much of it and started recounting his memories from the time he could remember. When he got to the part where Sakumo Hatake was framed, Kakashi clenched his fists, veins bulging on his hands. Then he went on to describe how Karot perfectly resolved the problem. Karot sang his praises to the skies, portraying him as incredibly wise and powerful. Kakashi didn't believe a word he said; Karot was just too good at exaggerating.

"Where do I sleep?"

Carrot had to work up a sweat before he finally managed to give a rough outline.

"The first room on the left on the second floor."

"Okay, good night."
