"Of course, I'm not bragging, but when I get serious, I'm even afraid of myself."
Karot said with a smug look, "If you're talking about looks, Karot doesn't boast, after all, there are plenty of people in the Ninja World who are more handsome than him, his younger brother Kakashi is one of them. But when it comes to strength, Karot has nothing to fear."
"You haven't changed at all after all these years."
I was just telling the truth.
Naruto's admiration for Karot only grew stronger after hearing Karot speak like that.
I'm leaving now.
After saying that, Orochimaru left with Kabuto.
"Eh."
Karot wanted to brag to Orochimaru, but the audience left before he knew it.
"Lord Karot"
Naruto looked like a good boy, and if Karot hadn't already known what kind of person he was, he would have been fooled by him. What are you doing pretending to be innocent when you look like a delinquent?
"No, don't look for me, I don't want to mess with you."
Karot knows that Naruto is the reincarnation of the Six Paths' son, and he doesn't want to be associated with the Six Paths right now. Karot 'Orochimaru plan can't be disrupted!
Everyone was puzzled by Karot's behavior. They all knew Karot's personality and this was the first time they had seen Karot show such hostility towards a child.
"Karot, is my son really that annoying?"
Kushina, fiercely protective of her son, lashed out at Karot while holding him in her arms. Especially when Kushina was angry, her hair flew wildly, making her look like a veritable red-haired devil.
"Your son is very good; his future achievements will definitely be no less than Minato's."
Karot was somewhat envious of Naruto's future achievements, as he easily stood at the pinnacle of the Ninja World, a height that others could never reach in their entire lives.
"Then can you be his teacher?"
Kushina spoke up.
Wait for me here! After all that talk, the truth is out: you want me to take Naruto apprentice.
Naruto, hearing his mother's words, looked at Karot with the same hopeful expression, as did Sasuke. If Naruto succeeded, could he succeed too?
"Naruto doesn't need me. If the three powers within him are properly developed, he'll eventually..."
Karot stopped abruptly at this point.
"What three powers? Karot, explain yourself clearly."
Minato tensed up. He knew his own son; Naruto possessed only two types of Chakra: his own and the Nine-Tails' power. How could Karot claim there were three?
"Just kidding, Minato- senpai."
Karot turned to Kakashi and said.
"Would you like to come with me, Kakashi?"
After receiving Kakashi's answer, Karot instantly Instantaneous Movement away.
After seeing Karot leave, Minato turned to look at Naruto, seemingly trying to see through him. People like Naruto have something to say, but since Karot was unwilling to say it, there was nothing Karot could do.
Jiraiya Minato him on the shoulder. Jiraiya shook his head at Minato.
"Let's go back first! It's not appropriate for us to stay here any longer."
"That's a nice house you bought, Kakuzu."
Karot Instantaneous Movement to Kakuzu's newly purchased house and began to critique it. It was a three-story villa with a small courtyard. The yard was filled with expensive flowers and plants; the old man certainly knew how to enjoy life.
"Karot, could you please not show up so suddenly next time?!"
When Karot appeared Kakuzu was about to take off his pants to urinate, which almost Kakuzu back. Kakuzu was worried that if Karot did this a few more times, his happy life after fighting would be in trouble. Therefore, Kakuzu didn't give Karot a friendly look.
"I'll be more careful next time, and I won't be so stingy."
Karot waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing to worry about.
Seeing Karot's expression, it's clear he didn't take it to heart. Karot has always been someone who knows his mistakes but doesn't correct them, repeating them next time. Having a friend like that is quite frustrating for Kakuzu.
Where is my room?
"Second room on the second floor."
Kakuzu had already factored Karot into his calculations when he bought the house; he knew Karot would ask him for money.
"You're so easy to get things done."
After saying that Karot went straight upstairs to see his house.
"Stay for dinner tonight!"
Kakuzu shouted upstairs.
"Okay, I understand."
Upon hearing Karot's reply, Kakuzu instructed his servants.
Prepare enough food for one hundred people tonight.
The servant was a little surprised to hear his master's words. Two people preparing enough food for a hundred people? Wasn't that a waste? However, as a professional servant, he said nothing and went to prepare.
Karot returned home in the middle of the night, having eaten his fill. Just as he was about to undress and go to bed, a yellow figure appeared in his room. The person was none other than our Yellow Flash, Minato Namikaze.
"Minato- senpai, it's the middle of the night, and instead of spending time with your wife, you're coming here to find me. I'm a little scared!"
After saying that, Karot hugged the blanket tightly, looking frightened.
Upon seeing this, Minato's forehead veins bulged.
"Didn't you ask me to come?"
Minato suppressed his anger and said...
When did I ever say such a thing to you?
Karot was completely bewildered. Karot recalled the events of the day; he definitely hadn't said anything like that.
"When you left during the day, you walked into the shadows, scratched the back of your head, and held up three fingers. Wasn't that telling me to come find you at three in the morning?"
"What?"
Minato found Karot's words hard to believe. He'd only taken cover because the sun was too strong. Couldn't he even scratch the back of his head?
"Minato- senpai, aren't you overthinking this? Have you been under too much pressure lately?"
Married men tend to overthink things.
Seeing Karot's expression, Minato realized that he might have misunderstood; he had been anxiously overthinking all night.
"It's all because you mentioned Naruto."
Seeing Minato Namikaze calm down, Karot understood him; it was a father caring for his son.
"Naruto really does have..."
Karot raised his hand to Shisui from continuing. Karot snapped his fingers, and a cloud of energy enveloped the two of them.
"Now we can talk. No one but the two of us can hear us from here."
Seeing how serious Karot was, Minato became even more worried about Naruto's condition.
"What are those three powers?"
The Minato issue gets straight to the heart of the matter.
Karot chuckled. "As expected of Minato!"
"The first possibility is that Naruto himself used all his strength."
Karot held up one finger.
"The second type is the power of the Nine-Tails."
Extend the second finger.
"The third type is the power of the Sage of Six Paths' son."
Karot extended his third finger.
"What?"
Minato couldn't believe in the existence of a third power.
