Chapter 233 God! Prepare for a rainy day
"Mutaito, the teacher of two Sages."
"Sages?"
Shikamaru was speechless: "This world actually has so-called Sages."
"One of them must be the Master Roshi that Naruto mentioned, right?"
"And the other? It's not recorded."
Shikamaru organized his thoughts, surprised to find that this world seemed to naturally forget them.
If Naruto hadn't told him, he wouldn't have been able to find anything at all.
"It seems necessary to investigate."
Shikamaru thought for a moment and decided to take the initiative to investigate it thoroughly.
Having been friends with Naruto for so many years, he deeply realized that anything even slightly related to Naruto would always appear in unexpected ways.
What was this called?
It was called a surprise, and also a fright.
Think about it, when they were five or six years old, who would have thought that the legendary Six Paths Sage was real?
Who would have thought that Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, from the myths, was also real?
Even more terrifying was that there was a whole bunch of Ōtsutsuki waiting for them to fight.
He looked at this world from the perspective of someone who had experienced it; when Narutoarrived, it was very possible that all so-called legends would become reality.
Not to mention that this so-called King Piccolo was a recent figure.
"It seems I need to plan ahead!"
Shikamaru continued to pore over ancient texts, his mind already deep in thought.
"I'll investigate tomorrow."
...True to his word, Shikamaru, on the second day, quietly began his investigation, leveraging the connections he had accumulated during this time.
"Pilaf? Mai?"
Looking at the photos in his hand, Shikamarupondered: "I didn't expect such an unexpected discovery."
"Red Ribbon Army? Red Army?"
"Is this the cannon fodder Naruto mentioned? Their strength is quite impressive."
"I should send this information to Naruto. As for how he'll deal with it, I'm beyond reach for now."
Shikamaru silently organized the data and sent it to Naruto.
"Shikamaru is so dedicated!"
When Naruto received the intelligence from Nara Shikamaru, he was completely taken aback.
This guy, he actually compiled so much data in his spare time.
And the information was basically consistent with his own memories.
"Is this the value of a smart person? It's truly terrifying."
"Oh, the World Martial Arts Tournament?"
Naruto saw the information in the intelligence Nara Shikamaru sent over.
After a closer look, he immediately lost interest.
The current Martial Arts Tournament was far from as exciting as it would be in the future, and he wasn't interested.
As for King Piccolo, the ocean was so vast, it wasn't that easy to find him.
To put it in a more fantastical way, it wasn't his time to emerge yet.
How could one dredge the boundless ocean?
He was currently just waiting for Orochimaru to build the Dragon Radar, and then he would go collect the Dragon Balls first.
Everything else was trivial.
The plot would slowly unfold in a few more years.
Even if it did unfold, he was already in the first tier of strength, safe and sound.
He had to improve his strength as much as possible during this gap in years.
"Never mind, I'll continue cultivating."
Naruto slowly closed his eyes, and the surrounding natural energy surged in.
At the same time, the natural energy of space also roared, impacting Naruto's body.
The energy surges from both spaces led to an astonishing accumulation of energy within Naruto.
Coupled with the cultivation method he created, Naruto's strength steadily increased.
Seeing this, Hinata also dared not slack off. After finishing her tasks, she also began to cultivate.
Nine-Tailed and the others looked at each other, and were also drawn into it.
Work hard!
Everyone, work hard!
Nine-Tailed roared internally... "Kami, what are you looking at?"
The Lookout is the highest and strongest place on Earth, where the gods reside.
This is the dwelling of the gods.
At this moment,
Mr. Popo was holding a watering can, watering the flowers and plants.
This was almost his unwavering hobby every day.
Whenever he saw these flowers and plants sway, his heart would be much happier.
The remaining task was to serve the god.
That is, the kind Piccolo in front of him.
"I am looking at variables!"
Kami leaned on his staff, his somewhat aged face filled with benevolence. His gaze fell upon Mount Paozu.
Uzumaki Naruto, Hyuga Hinata, and a few Tailed Beasts playfully teasing each other.
These were all variables, and none knew where they came from.
If he had seen Son Goku's arrival, then these people appeared without a trace.
It was as if they had suddenly appeared on Earth.
His gaze shifted, falling upon Nara Shikamaru.
It fell upon Kakashi Hatake.
Then it fell upon Might Guy.
Finally,
Kami's gaze once again fell upon Uzumaki Naruto.
He could tell that these people all looked to him as their leader.
In other words, Naruto was the leader of these people.
"Variables?"
Mr. Popo was stunned.
He had served several generations of Kami and had never seen variables.
"That's right, they are variables."
Kami withdrew his gaze and shook his head: "For now, they haven't done anything, but we still need to be prepared."
"Unfortunately, the energy within them is quite remarkable. Currently, only the Master Roshi in the lower world can match them."
"I hope it won't be too bad."
Kami shook his head.
He didn't know why, but lately he had a bad feeling.
As if something terrible was about to happen in the future.
As a god,
Even if he was just a local god of a planet, his perception of such things would not be wrong.
Clearly, a terrifying disaster would occur on Earth in the future.
He couldn't help but suspect that this disaster was brought by Uzumaki Naruto and his companions.
Because he hadn't had this feeling before.
However, when Uzumaki Naruto and his companions arrived on this planet, he had a premonition.
Isn't that quite a coincidence?
Does such a coincidence exist in the world?
Kami didn't believe it.
The universe was vast, perhaps such coincidences truly existed, but he didn't believe such a coincidence would happen to him.
"I need to find a way to inform the Master Roshiand have him prepare."
Kami tapped the ground with his staff: "Mr. Popo, you and the Master Roshi are old acquaintances. Go and remind him."
"Oh, alright!"
Mr. Popo was truly surprised this time.
Had things progressed to such a point?
Even Kami had to start interfering with what was happening in the human world?
Mr. Popo didn't understand.
But he knew that listening to Kami was always the right thing to do... "Mr. Popo?"
When the Master Roshi saw Mr. Popo sitting on a rug and appearing in his Kame House, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
He dared not open his eyes... "Master Roshi, long time no see."
"Ah, Mr. Popo, long time no see."
The Master Roshi gasped, then quickly scurried out.
Years ago, he had climbed Korin Tower and learned about Kami's existence from Korin Sage.
It happened that Mr. Popo had descended to Korin Tower at that time, and he had the fortune to meet him once.
He dared not underestimate Mr. Popo in front of him.
According to Korin Sage, this dark-skinned individual had lived for an unknown number of years.
A true living fossil.
His strength was only stronger, not weaker, than his own.
He just didn't know why such an existence would come to him now.
Could it be...
