An Interruption

"Excuse me, are you Dr. Vegapunk? This is Konohagakure. Welcome, Dr. Vegapunk!"

Upon entering Konohagakure, Vegapunk saw the current Third Hokage walking towards him with a smile, followed by Kakashi Hatake.

Kakashi, being the only ninja who had ever interacted with Vegapunk for a period of time, was naturally brought over by the Third Hokage to entertain Vegapunk.

Although Vegapunk held a high position, he was not Daimyo of a country, so having a Jonin like Kakashi entertain him was not considered a slight.

"So it's the Third Hokage!" Vegapunk said with a smile. "You look quite energetic!"

"Haha, thank you for your praise, Doctor, but I can't compare to you young people! Dr. Vegapunk's inventions have contributed far more than this old man's! Your current Daimyo is also far greater than that of a mere ninja leader!"

"Not at all, how could I compare to you, sir..."

The two engaged in some pointless boasting. While Vegapunk didn't particularly enjoy such things, it didn't mean he was unfamiliar with interpersonal communication. However, after exchanging only a few words, the Third Hokage sensed that the gaze of the stunningly beautiful woman standing next to Vegapunk was growing increasingly cold, making him feel as if he were being pricked by thorns.

The Third Hokage was well aware that the woman beside Vegapunk was definitely not weak. After all, Kakashi had suffered a great loss at her hands before. Even he was wary of her strange petrifying power.

Therefore, seeing that Hancock was already showing some dissatisfaction, he didn't talk to Vegapunk any longer, but left Kakashi behind and quickly made an excuse to leave.

"Dr. Vegapunk, I will now guide you on a tour of Konoha!"

Kakashi spoke directly, but as he spoke, he glanced strangely at Obito Uchiha at the back, feeling that this unassuming coachman was somewhat familiar.

However, Kakashi quickly shook his head, attributing it to his own imagination. As for the coachman's considerable Chakra, Kakashi had no doubt whatsoever.

After all, he's Vegapunk's personal coachman, which can be considered a bodyguard, so it's perfectly normal for him to have some strength.

On the contrary, Obito Uchiha, whom Kakashi regarded as a coachman, kept glancing at Kakashi Hatake out of the corner of his eye, his eyes filled with complex emotions that even he himself did not know how to describe.

In the end, however, Obito Uchiha, further concealing his presence and strengthening his resolve.

"If only we could go back to the past... if only we could go back to the past... all regrets could be made up for, all tragedies could be averted... if only we could go back to the past!"

Konohagakure valued Vegapunk and his group highly, giving them a level of hospitality second only to the Daimyo.

At least the inn that hosted them was one of the largest and most prosperous in Konohagakure. Of course, there must have been many Anbu nearby, but as soon as Vegapunk and the others entered, they set up Barrier to block all outside eyes.

Night fell quietly, and outside Vegapunk's inn, some mysterious ninjas appeared without a sound.

Having bottled up a lot of anger during the day, Vegapunk, who was currently enjoying the service of Hancock and Mei Terumi, was soon alerted by the warning set on his Quantum Chip.

Damn it! Of all times! These bastards, can't they even wait a day?!

Vegapunk, who was enjoying himself, suddenly became furious. He patted Mei Terumi's head below and then wiggled his toes to remind Hancock.

Mei Terumi glanced up at Vegapunk with a dazed look in her eyes, while Hancock, who possessed Observation Haki, suddenly sobered up from her blushing and intoxicated expression.

"Damn it, these bastards! I'll feed all these ninjas to the snakes!"

Hancock hurriedly got up, grabbed the Cheongsam from the ground, and dressed herself in a few quick movements. Her originally beautiful face revealed a terrifying expression, and she immediately prepared to give all the Konoha Ninja a lesson they would never forget.

Mei Terumi, whose perception was not up to par, finally realized what was happening and hurriedly spat out what was in her mouth. The brown-haired beauty also showed a gritted-teeth expression and prepared to put on her clothes and join Hancock in causing a ruckus.

Vegapunk hugged the two of them tightly. "Don't get excited, I've already thought of a way to get revenge! Don't mess things up."

"Alright, for my sake!" Hancock went limp after being hugged by Vegapunk, pouting as she said that. As for Mei Terumi, she was even more so.

"Hancock, please open the gate to the Heavenly Realm Space first, and we'll go inside!"

Following Vegapunk's instructions, Hancock obediently nodded and directly used her powers to open the gate to Amenominaka.

Then, Hancock and her two companions went straight inside. The black Space Gate didn't close immediately; instead, after a moment, ten lifeless figures emerged.

Within the space of Amenominaka are Vegapunk's Laboratory and resting house, as well as machines that allow direct observation of the outside world.

Vegapunk issued the command directly using his Electromagnetic Ability, and a projection screen appeared in front of the three of them a moment later.

"Alright, let's watch it here!"

Vegapunk chuckled and said something, then sat down on the sofa behind him.

After Vegapunk's modifications, the Amenominaka Space not only allows one to observe the outside from inside, but even the space walls have become more solid. Apart from Hancock herself, only Vegapunk, who possesses the corresponding Spatial Coordinates and space travel technology, can enter.

No one else could possibly get in, not even through Summoning Jutsu or Space-Time Ninjutsu; it was truly impregnable.

Hancock looked at the sneaky ninjas and Vegapunk's Bio-Weapons in the projection, a bored expression on her face. She didn't find watching ants fight interesting at all.

However, when Hancock saw Vegapunk sitting on the large sofa, her eyes lit up. She then walked over to the sofa, snuggling her warm body next to Vegapunk, while giving Mei Terumi a wink.

Mei Terumi trembled slightly, her face flushed, and she hesitated before sitting down on the other side of Vegapunk. Then, both of them gently leaned down.

Vegapunk, who was watching the projection, gasped, feeling a tingling sensation from his scalp to his toes.
