As Vegeta and Goku landed, they finally took a moment to observe the destruction they had caused. The battlefield was a wasteland of shattered earth, deep craters, and fallen debris. Entire stretches of land had been torn apart by their collisions, and the lingering shockwaves had left the surrounding area in ruins.
Goku scratched the back of his head with an apologetic grin. "Uh... sorry for that, everyone," he said, looking at the stunned group of shinobi, who were still trying to comprehend what had just transpired. "We were just testing our strength."
The silence from Minato, Kushina, and the others was deafening, their expressions a mix of awe, disbelief, and relief that the battle had finally stopped.
"But don't worry!" Goku added with a cheerful tone, as if trying to reassure them. "We only used about one percent of our full power."
The words hung in the air like a bombshell. Minato and the others stood frozen, their minds reeling at the casual revelation. If that level of destruction was only a fraction of their power, the true extent of their strength was unimaginable.
Vegeta crossed his arms, nodding as he surveyed the damage. "You're lucky we didn't take it seriously from the start," he said with a smirk, glancing at the wreckage. "Next time, we'll find a better place to fight."
The shinobi stared at them, speechless, realizing just how incomprehensibly powerful these two warriors truly were.
"Let's get eat something" says Goku as he took everyone to Konoha. Using instant transmission directly into Konoha
As Goku and Vegeta arrived in Konoha, their first stop was a bustling restaurant. The scent of food wafted through the air, and their stomachs growled in anticipation. As they entered, they spotted Tsunade and Jiraiya seated at a table, deep in conversation. The two Sannin glanced up as Goku and Vegeta walked in, and both looked confused.
Tsunade furrowed her brow. "Wait a second… Minato, where are those two kids who were with you earlier?" she asked, clearly puzzled.
Jiraiya scratched his head, equally confused. "Yeah, the kids. Where'd they go?"
Minato chuckled, looking at Goku and Vegeta before turning back to Tsunade and Jiraiya. "Those 'kids' you're talking about are right here," he explained, gesturing to the two Saiyans. "They've returned to their original forms."
Tsunade and Jiraiya's eyes widened in disbelief as they stared at Goku and Vegeta, now in their full adult forms, standing before them with confident grins.
"You're telling me these two were the same kids we saw before?" Jiraiya asked incredulously, trying to wrap his head around the transformation.
"Yup, they were temporarily turned into kids," Minato confirmed. "But now they're back to their full adult selves."
Tsunade folded her arms and gave Goku and Vegeta a long, scrutinizing look. "Well, I didn't expect that," she said, still processing the change. "First kids, now adults… you two are full of surprises."
Goku chuckled. "Yeah, it was pretty weird being a kid again."
Vegeta, unimpressed by the whole ordeal, scoffed. "It's about time we got back to normal. The child forms were holding us back."
Tsunade and Jiraiya exchanged bewildered looks before Jiraiya shook his head with a grin. "I guess nothing's ever ordinary when it comes to you guys."
Two months passed and Goku and Vegeta went back to their routine to teach their students. Vegeta returned to the rain village and Goku returned to Konoha.
Danzo sat in the dimly lit chamber beneath Konoha, surrounded by his loyal Root ANBU. The candlelight flickered, casting shadows across the room, but his expression remained cold and calculated. He had come to a decision—a drastic one, but necessary to ignite the war that would give him control over Konoha's future.
His plan? To frame an external enemy by staging a series of kidnappings and murders within the village. But not just any targets—the children of Konoha.
Danzo's eyes narrowed as he addressed his most trusted subordinates. "The village needs to be reminded of the threat from outside its walls. Fear must take root in the hearts of the people. Only then will they accept the necessity of war."
His most elite Root members, masked and emotionless, listened silently as Danzo continued. "You will disguise yourselves as foreign shinobi—specifically from the Land of Earth. Create false evidence, implicate them in these attacks. Capture several children from prominent clans and make it seem as though the other nations are behind it. The Hokage will be forced to act, and the people will call for retribution."
The plan was cruel, even for Danzo, but he was unwavering in his belief that the end justified the means. By targeting the children, he would create panic, outrage, and a thirst for vengeance within Konoha. He had no intention of keeping the children alive. Their deaths, staged as executions by a foreign power, would spark the outrage necessary to push the village into war.
"Ensure there are no survivors, no loose ends," Danzo added, his voice low but firm. "The evidence must be irrefutable. This war will shape Konoha's destiny, and we cannot afford any mistakes."
One of the Root members, standing at attention, gave a slight nod. "We will carry out your orders, Danzo-sama. The children will be taken tonight."
"Make sure no one suspect you. Target Uchiha clan first, after killing take their eyes and leave the mark of other nations" says Danzo as they nodded
As they departed, disappearing into the shadows, Danzo leaned back in his chair, already envisioning the chaos that would soon unfold. Parents would be devastated, the village enraged, and the Hokage forced into action.
The first missing child would be noticed by morning—a member of the Uchiha clan, followed by one from the Hyuga. Their lifeless bodies would be found near the village's borders, expertly mutilated to suggest the involvement of foreign shinobi. The evidence planted would point directly to the Land of Earth, and the suspicion of a greater conspiracy against Konoha would soon follow.
Once fear and anger gripped the hearts of the villagers, Danzo would make his move, ensuring that war was the only path forward. And in the chaos, he would position himself as the one capable of leading Konoha to victory, ultimately claiming control over the village he had long sought to shape.
"This is the beginning," Danzo whispered to himself, watching the candle flame flicker. "A new era for Konoha—under my rule."
In the middle of a cold, moonless night, two ANBU operatives moved swiftly and silently through the shadows of the Uchiha compound. Their mission was to kidnap young Uchiha and ignite tensions between Konoha and the Land of Earth, but as they infiltrated the home, a flicker of hesitation passed between them.
The child was innocent, just starting to understand the world around him. They knew this mission was rooted in Danzo's manipulative schemes. As they stood over the sleeping three years old kid, their decision was made. They couldn't bring themselves to take his life or deliver him to a fate of being used as a pawn in a political war.
One of the ANBU, his mask hiding a look of conflicted sorrow, motioned to the other. "We'll spare the child. But the mission must be completed... the parents can't live to tell what happened and it will be blamed on land of earth."
The other ANBU member nodded in grim understanding. Moving quickly, they silenced kid's parents before they had a chance to fight back, leaving the home soaked in quiet tragedy. The operatives took the sleeping child, still unaware of the horror that had just unfolded, and carried him through the forest. They put the child in deep sleep using the sleeping gas
Upon reaching the edge of the camp, they carefully laid child down just beyond the flickering glow of the campfire, making sure he was hidden in a small patch of bushes but close enough to be found soon. Without a word, they vanished into the darkness, leaving the child behind in secrecy.
Meanwhile, far from the village, in a peaceful clearing deep within the forest, Obito, Rin, Kakashi, Minato, Kushina, Yahiko, Konan, Nagato, Goku, and Vegeta had gathered around a campfire. Over the past two months, their bonds had grown stronger, and tonight they shared their visions for the future.
"I want to surpass Kakarot," Vegeta said, crossing his arms with determination, the flames casting a flickering glow on his face.
Goku chuckled, playfully nudging Vegeta. "We'll see about that."
Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato exchanged glances before Yahiko stood, his voice full of conviction. "We want to create a group that will bring peace to the shinobi world. We'll call it 'Akatsuki.'"
Konan nodded in agreement. "We've seen too much suffering. It's time for us to make a change."
"For that, we'll need to recruit others who share our vision," Nagato added, his eyes glowing with the hope of a better world.
Rin smiled warmly at them. "I believe in you all. You'll definitely make it happen."
Kushina leaned forward, her face bright with excitement. "You've already got the passion! Just keep that fire burning, and nothing will stop you."
Minato, watching the group of young shinobi, felt a sense of pride. "We'll be there to support you."
Goku, with his heightened senses, suddenly perked up. "Hey… you guys hear something?"
Vegeta's eyes narrowed. "There's someone nearby."
Minato, always cautious, stood up. "Let's check it out."
As they approached the bushes, Minato knelt down and gasped softly when he saw small kid curled up and unconscious. "It's a child… an Uchiha," he said, recognizing the clan symbol on his clothing.
"He is Shisui, but what is he doing here." says Minato in confusion
Kushina rushed forward, gently picking up the sleeping boy. "Who could have left him here?" she asked, her voice laced with concern. "And where are his parents?"
Vegeta's eyes scanned the treeline, looking for any sign of danger. "Something's off. There's no way a kid like this would just end up here on his own. As far as I remember Uchiha are elite class of ninjas."
Goku nodded. "Yeah, someone brought him here. But why?"
As kid slowly began to wake, his eyes fluttered open and started to look around and cry.
Kushina comforted him, brushing his hair gently. "You're safe now. No one's going to hurt you."
Meanwhile,Tsunade sat in her bed for what felt like hours, staring into the darkness of her room. The memories of Nawaki and Dan were too much to bear tonight. She ran her hands through her hair, her fingers trembling as she fought the urge to cry out. It was suffocating—the weight of her failures, the burden of her losses.
I can't stay here any longer. I tried to clear my mind, but every night the loss of Nawaki and Dan haunts me.
The thought struck her with clarity. The village, the place that once held all her dreams, now only reminded her of the pain, the endless loss. Every corner of Konoha felt like a ghost of the past, and no matter where she turned, she could not escape the memories of those she had loved and lost.
It's time to go.
Quietly, she rose from her bed and slipped out of her room. The complex was eerily silent, the usual bustle of Konoha asleep at this late hour. She moved swiftly, gathering a few essential belongings—her scrolls, her medical equipment, and the necklace she had once given to Nawaki, now a painful reminder of the life she couldn't save.
Tsunade hesitated for a moment, her fingers brushing over the necklace. A lump formed in her throat, but she quickly tucked it into her bag. She couldn't afford to break down now. Not here. Not in Konoha.
With practiced stealth, she moved through the compound and out into the night. The streets of Konoha were dimly lit by the moon, casting long shadows across the buildings. The village felt cold and distant, as if it no longer belonged to her.
Tsunade moved swiftly, her years as a shinobi helping her slip through the village unnoticed. She avoided the main roads, sticking to the quieter, darker alleys where she wouldn't be seen. The memories of her time here weighed heavy on her mind, but she didn't look back. She couldn't.
As she neared the village gates, she paused one last time, looking out over the place she had once called home. She had spent her entire life here—trained here, loved here, lost here. But now, all she felt was the overwhelming urge to escape.
The faces of Nawaki and Dan flashed before her eyes once more, their voices echoing in her mind. "Live on… for both of us…"
Tsunade's heart ached, but she knew what she had to do. She couldn't stay in a place that only brought her pain. She needed to find her own path, far from the village that held so many memories.
Without another word, Tsunade turned her back on Konoha and silently slipped through the gates. The night swallowed her as she disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind the village—and the ghosts that haunted her.
As the sun began to rise, casting a warm glow over the Hidden Leaf Village, Goku, Minato, Kushina, Rin, Obito, and Kakashi strolled along the road, their spirits lifted by the promise of a new day. However, their mood quickly shifted as they approached the market area where an unsettling scene unfolded.
A cluster of high-ranking officials, including Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, and Danzo Shimura, were gathered, their expressions grave. The air was thick with tension, and whispers among the villagers hinted at a tragedy that had just occurred.
The villagers had gathered, murmuring anxiously. At the center of the market square, two lifeless bodies hung ominously from a wooden structure, their faces obscured by the dark hoods of their cloaks. A hush fell over the crowd as the grim reality sank in: these were the Uchiha whose lives had been extinguished,
"Who did that" asks Minato
"Shinobi of land of earth. They uses sleeping gas to put the sensor shinobi to enter the village. They knew in and out of the village." says Hiruzen showing the headband of shinobi of land of earth.
Minato's heart sank as he gazed upon the scene. The sight of the bodies, cold and lifeless, ignited a fire of anger and sorrow within him. This was not merely an act of violence; it was a declaration of war, a cruel manipulation designed to incite fear and rage.
Kushina clutched Minato's arm, her eyes wide with horror. "This is... it's horrible!" she gasped, tears threatening to spill.
Rin, standing beside them, whispered, "What kind of monster would do this? It's unimaginable."
Obito's fists clenched, his jaw tight. "We have to do something! We can't let this go unanswered."
"But who can take the eyes of Shisui's parents" asks Kushina
"Guys don't say anything about the uchiha kid we found. We must save him. " says Goku via telepathy to Minato, Kushina and students.
Everyone nodded as they knew that revealing the child's existence could put him in even greater danger. There was no telling how the Land of Earth would respond if they learned the Uchiha heir was still alive, a potential pawn in their twisted game.
"Ladies and gentlemen , we have another sad news. Lady Tsunade is missing, we are unable to find her. It seems she left the village" says Hiruzen adding another shocking layer. Jiraiya who is standing found it very disturbing.
"Then what should we do now" asks Minato
"We will send our troops to find her. Meanwhile we will increase our security" says Hiruzen
The whole village is in tension. Soon the night time came and Danzo sat in the dimly lit chamber beneath the Hokage's office, hidden from the eyes of the village. The flicker of the single candle cast long shadows across his stern face as he mulled over the latest reports brought to him by his network of spies. He had been following the movements of the Land of Wind, particularly the Sand Village, for weeks now. But there was one piece of information that had caught his attention more than anything else—Sasori, an extraordinary child who had already shown incredible aptitude for the deadly art of puppetry.
The report detailed how Sasori, despite his young age, tried creating human-like puppets with terrifying precision. He was growing into a prodigy, one that could rival the greatest shinobi of the Leaf if left unchecked. Infact
Sasori's parents were killed by The White Fang Of The Leaf, Hatake Sakumo.
The thought of such a potential threat rising within the Sand Village concerned Danzo deeply. A shinobi like Sasori, under the guidance of the Sand's leadership, could one day pose a significant problem for the Hidden Leaf's dominance because of revenge taking place in his heart.
Danzo's brow furrowed as he tapped his fingers rhythmically on the wooden table. "We cannot afford to let that happen," he muttered, his voice as cold as the stone walls around him. "Such talent should either be neutralized... or brought under my control."
His eyes gleamed with ambition as a plan began to form in his mind. Sasori was young, impressionable, and dangerous—a perfect
There was a silence in Hidde leaf for next six months. The Shisui is growing up under the care of Amagakure orphans Nagato, Yahiko and Konan along with Vegeta. Goku, Minato and Kushina visit them every day in night time when no one is there. Vegeta already liked the toddler sensing great potential hidden in him. Back in Konoha Danzo is planning his next attack on Sasori
Danzo sat in the shadows of his Root headquarters, Danzo's fingers drummed against the wooden desk as he formulated his next move. Eliminating Sasori directly would raise suspicion and could ignite tensions between the Rain and the Sand. But Danzo had another way in mind, one that would both eliminate Sasori and turn the Sand against the rain, weakening their village without Konoha ever having to make a direct move.
His voice was cold as he called for one of his most trusted Root operatives. "We will strike the Sand Village soon. But this attack must be flawless, and it must point directly at hidden rain village—without implicating us."
The operative knelt silently, awaiting orders.
"I want you and your team to infiltrate the Sand Village," Danzo continued, his tone laced with cruelty. "You will use the Transformation Jutsu to disguise yourselves as hidden rain village
shinobi. Equip yourselves with rain headbands, weapons, and tactics they will recognize. But more importantly, you will make sure Sasori is the primary target. He must be eliminated, but it must look like an attack from rain village"
The operative's head tilted slightly in acknowledgment, his mind already calculating the steps. "Shall we assassinate others as well to make it appear more authentic?"
"Yes. Kill prominent figures in the Sand—chūnin, jōnin, whoever is available. Create as much havoc as possible, but ensure Sasori does not survive. His skills are far too dangerous to leave unchecked." Danzo's gaze sharpened as he gave his final command. "Ensure there are no survivors who can testify."
The operative nodded, vanishing into the shadows as he left to gather the squad for the mission.
Danzo's eyes narrowed as he leaned back in his chair. This plan was perfect. Not only would it rid him of a future threat in Sasori, but it would also push the Sand Village into a defensive position. They would be forced to focus on internal matters, rebuilding their trust in Konoha, and questioning their own security. It would weaken their position on the political stage, giving the Leaf more leverage in future negotiations.
Days later, under the cover of darkness, the Root operatives moved through the desert towards the Hidden Sand Village. Their faces were masked, but their bodies were cloaked in the attire of Amegakure shinobi, each bearing the signature forehead protector. Their transformation was flawless—the result of years of specialized training within Root. To any outsider, they appeared to be a Amegakure unit sent on an assassination mission.
Once inside the village, they slipped through the shadows, careful to avoid any detection until the moment was right. The streets were quiet, and the Sand's shinobi were unaware of the storm that was about to descend upon them.
The leader of the Root unit signaled to his men, and they spread out, each assigned to critical targets within the village. Explosive tags were planted in strategic locations, traps were set, and kunai were coated in poison. Everything was ready.
The first explosion shattered the silence of the night, sending villagers running in panic. Sand shinobi quickly mobilized, but they were unprepared for the sudden and precise nature of the attack. The Root operatives struck swiftly, moving like ghosts through the village. They killed without hesitation, each death leaving behind the distinct marks of Amegakure's tactics and tools.
Meanwhile, the team's leader made his way towards Sasori's home. He knew that the boy was often isolated, preferring his puppets over human company, which made him an easy target. As the operative approached, he noticed one of Sasori's puppets standing guard outside the door. Its wooden limbs creaked ominously in the moonlight.
Without a sound, the operative activated his Transformation Jutsu again, taking the form of a Sand Village shinobi to avoid detection by Sasori's puppet. He crept forward, kunai in hand, ready to strike.
Inside, Sasori was hunched over his latest creation, oblivious to the danger lurking outside. The operative slipped through the door and, in a single fluid motion, aimed his kunai at the boy's heart.
But Sasori was no ordinary child.
In a split second, one of his puppets lunged forward, intercepting the attack. The clash of steel against wood echoed through the room as Sasori leaped back, his sharp eyes narrowing as he took in the sight of his attacker. He didn't recognize the face—it appeared to be a fellow Sand shinobi—but something felt wrong.
"You're not from the Sand," Sasori muttered, his voice eerily calm as he summoned two more puppets to his side. "Who sent you?"
The Root operative, realizing that his disguise had failed. "You're too dangerous, Sasori. This ends here."
Sasori's lips curled into a cold smile as his puppets prepared to attack. "Dangerous, am I? Then let's see if you can handle me."
Outside, the rest of the Root unit continued their assault on the Sand Village, cutting down any shinobi who stood in their way. The chaos was palpable, and the village was in disarray. Flames erupted from buildings, and the cries of the injured and dying filled the air.
The Sand's defense forces fought back fiercely, but they were overwhelmed by the sheer speed and precision of the disguised attackers. With every move, the Root operatives made sure to leave behind evidence that pointed to hidden rain, headbands from their dead operatives.
As the battle in Sasori's workshop intensified, Sasori's puppets clashed with the Root operative's kunai, each strike growing more desperate. But Sasori was not a child to be underestimated. His puppets moved with deadly precision, and within moments, they overwhelmed the Root operative, skewering him with poisoned blades.
Sasori stood over the fallen body, breathing heavily but victorious. However, he knew this wasn't an isolated incident. He stepped outside, his eyes narrowing as he saw the village engulfed in flames.
"An attack… from Konoha?" he whispered, his mind racing. But something didn't sit right. These attackers were skilled, but they didn't fight like ordinary Konoha shinobi. He would investigate further, but for now, his village needed defending.
"Agghhh, our mission failed. We may disguised ourself as hidden rain shinobi but our tactics are of konoha" says one Anbu member
Danzo's plan was already in motion. The elite Anbu members, disguised as Hidden Rain shinobi, had infiltrated the outskirts of the Hidden Sand Village under the cover of night. Their mission was clear: eliminate the prodigy Sasori and frame the Hidden Rain for the attack. In doing so, they would destabilize relations between the Sand and Rain villages and will sow the seeds of the conflict within the sand village, making it easier for Danzo to manipulate the Leaf's involvement in the growing conflict.
The plan of Danzo is failed as Sasori recognized them from hidden leaf.
Meanwhile Goku and Vegeta, who had been passing through the Hidden Sand Village on their travels to find Buu, sensed the disturbance.
"What's going on here?" Goku asked, his eyes narrowing as he looked toward the source of the chaotic energy.
"I don't like the feel of this," Vegeta muttered. "Something's off."
In a flash, the two Saiyans sped toward the scene, their swift movements making them invisible to the naked eye.
"We are here to take you. Sasori, you will come and joun our forces. Don't retaliate or else we will kill you" says the disguised shinobi of leaf as four more joined.
One raised his hand, signaling the others to halt. In perfect synchronization, they formed a circle around Sasori. Sasori not able to understand, each operative readied themselves, preparing the complex sequence of hand seals required for the jutsu. Sasori, remained focused on his puppet, the tension in the air only growing thicker with each passing moment.
"Now," the leader whispered.
In a flash, all five operatives activated their jutsu simultaneously, their hands glowing with chakra as they slammed them into the ground around Sasori. The earth trembled slightly as the seals activated, forming a glowing pentagon of chakra barriers around him. The sudden burst of energy caught Sasori off guard.
"What—!?"
Before he could react, the glowing seals tightened around him like invisible chains. His body stiffened as the powerful chakra sealing technique took hold. It was a Five-Point Sealing Formation, a specialized jutsu designed to immobilize and suppress powerful shinobi by locking their chakra and preventing movement.
Sasori's eyes widened in shock as he tried to move, but his limbs wouldn't obey. His chakra felt like it was being drained, sealed away by the five shinobi around him. The seals hummed with energy, locking him in place, preventing even the slightest twitch of his fingers. His puppet tools were useless now—he couldn't manipulate a single thread of chakra.
The leader of the disguised Anbu operatives stepped forward, his eyes cold behind the mask. "You should have stayed hidden, Sasori of the Red Sand. Your talent has become too dangerous, and now, it ends here."
Sasori's mind raced. He was a genius of puppetry, yes, but even a genius couldn't act with his body locked by this level of fūinjutsu. His heart pounded in frustration as he glared at his captors. He could feel the power of the sealing jutsu tightening around his chest, his breath coming in shallow gasps as the invisible bonds constricted.
"You think... you can defeat me this way?" Sasori spat, his voice laced with venom. "Fools."
One of the shinobi smirked behind his mask, his hands glowing as he prepared to place an additional seal directly on Sasori's chest, meant to fully seal his chakra flow and render him powerless. But Sasori has a hidden trap that he activated revealing the hidden weapon trap that strikes all five shinobi at once. Spears infused with poison but they had peotective armor that saved them. They uses fireball jutsu to burn the Sasori and once heis burned they attempted to place aother chakra seal.
"Fools, you think you can defeat me so easily" says Sasori. Then there is another trap hidden and then it sends shuriken. The anbu members deflected every attack and then tried to put final seal
But before the final seal could be placed, a powerful shockwave tore through sending dust and debris flying. The five Anbu were thrown back, their formation broken in an instant. Sasori, still partially bound by the sealing jutsu, felt the grip on his body weaken slightly, enough for him to move his eyes toward the source of the disturbance.There, standing at the edge of the square, were two figures, their power radiating through the air like an overwhelming storm—Goku and Vegeta.
"Hi, we were watching you capturing that kid. It seems you failed" says Goku casually
The Anbu operatives struggled to regain their footing, but the sheer force of the two strangers' presence made it difficult. The energy surrounding Goku and Vegeta was unlike anything the shinobi had ever felt, far beyond anything even the most powerful of shinobi could produce.
"Damn, these two are here. How ?" says the Anbu in confusion
Goku glanced at Vegeta, a smirk on his face. "Looks like we arrived just in time. That kid doesn't look like he deserves this."
Vegeta grunted in agreement, crossing his arms. "Let's clean this up quickly. I'm not here to babysit a bunch of weaklings."
The Anbu, realizing the threat, quickly regrouped and charged at Goku and Vegeta, attempting to restrain them as they had done to Sasori. They formed seals rapidly, summoning chains and seals designed to immobilize chakra users. But Goku and Vegeta were far beyond their comprehension.
Within few seconds all five anbu operatives found themselves in ground while Goku and Vegeta standing still. Goku and Vegeta sends ki wave shattering the chakra chains like they were made of glass. Vegeta, meanwhile, raised a single finger and sent a blast of energy that knocked the approaching shinobi unconscious before they even realized what had happened.
Within moments, the battle was over. The Anbu lay defeated, scattered around the square, their mission in shambles. Goku turned to Sasori, who was still trapped by the remnants of the sealing jutsu. With a simple wave of his hand, Goku disrupted the seals, freeing Sasori from the chakra bindings.
Sasori, now able to move, looked up at Goku and Vegeta, his eyes narrowing with suspicion. "Who... are you? From hidden leaf village"
Chiyo, Sasori's grandmother, rushed out from the shadows, having minor injuries as she defeated majority of witnessed the entire scene. She stared at Goku and Vegeta in awe, recognizing the sheer power they had displayed.
"Thank you," Chiyo said, bowing her head slightly. "You saved my grandson. I don't know who you are, but your power is beyond anything I've seen.". Chiyo defeated the anbu but due to her age she is injured. Goku used his ki and gave her energy.
Vegeta grunted, clearly uninterested in flattery, while Goku smiled warmly.
Chiyo stood and stepped forward, her eyes gleaming with a new hope. "Thankyou,
Sasori is gifted, but he's lost his way. He lost his parents when he was small, his talents are being twisted by the darkness around him.Unable to get the love he deserved, he hates everyone, spend time with his puppets. I've seen what you two are capable of... Would you train him? Help him understand true strength and power? Taking him on right path and train him in martial arts. I can sense your true strength"
Sasori remained silent, his gaze shifting between his grandmother and the two powerful warriors who had saved him. Goku and Vegeta exchanged a glance, both sensing the potential in the young puppeteer.
"I have little motivation to serve Sunagakure any longer, as I am retired and felt that the next generation should look out for." says Chiyo
Goku placed a hand on Sasori's shoulder, his voice gentle yet firm. "We can show you a different path, Sasori. If you're willing to learn. Look, when I was small, I lost my grandpa Gohan but I found friends and I have a family now. We face many challenges in life, we either take a wrong turn and turn evil or take a good path and die a hero"
Vegeta, still standing with his arms crossed, nodded slightly. "But you'd better be ready to work hard if you want to keep up with us."
For the first time in a long while, Sasori felt a flicker of something he hadn't experienced before—hope. He nodded slowly, accepting their offer.
"He find it hard to have someone he can call his family. I may not live long but he should take right path" says Chiyo
"Don't worry, he will be in right hands" says Goku as all of sudden many root operatives arrived in an attempt to attack them but Goku and Vegeta used their spead and defeat all of them in few seconds.
"But are you from hidden leaf by any chance" asks Chiyo
"Yes, I am living in hidden leaf, and Vegeta in hidden rain but we are not enemies. We promise that we will keep your grandson safe" says Goku
"I can sense that even if you are from leaf, you are good, Sasori will learn a lot from you" says Chiyo
"Sasori, I know that it may be hard but you will find your true self after training with us" says Goku as the Anbu members stood and says "We will return". With that they teleported away
"Nice to meet you" says Yahiko extending his hand towards Sasori
"Hi," says Sasori and one by one they introduced each other
"So, as we decided we will create another base where we all can train. " says Goku
"Goku, I want you to take the little Uchiha with you. If someone is trying to hurt him, he will be safe" says Kushina
"Don't worry, we will train together" says Goku
Same night of failed mission, Danzo's figure seated behind a large desk. His one visible eye glares down at the kneeling ANBU operative, whose posture is tense, aware of the weight of his failure.
"Lord Danzo, the mission to capture Sasori has failed. He recognized us as Leaf shinobi before we could complete the task. To make matters worse, two outsiders—immensely powerful—interfered. We were no match for them."
Danzo's expression remains stoic, but the air in the room grows thick with tension. He taps his fingers against his cane, each tap echoing louder in the silence.
"Outsiders? You mean to tell me that mere interference, by two unknowns, was enough to disrupt my plan? That smal kid defeated you, you fell in his booby trap"
"They are Goku and Vegeta. Their power was... unlike anything we've ever encountered. They decimated our team in seconds and freed Sasori. I believe they are not from any known village, and their techniques... they're beyond comprehension."
Danzo's eye narrows slightly, processing this new information. His mind races, already considering the implications of these new players on the board.
"You and your team were supposed to be the elite. Trained to handle any situation. And yet, you've returned with failure. They are really a threat for us."
The ANBU operative flinches, knowing that failure under Danzo's command rarely comes without punishment. "The objective was simple. Infiltrate, capture, and eliminate Sasori. You've not only failed to neutralize him but allowed our involvement to be exposed. Do you realize what this means for the Leaf? The Rain Village now has reason to doubt our intentions. This failure could lead to a domino effect—alliances broken, suspicions raised."
Danzo walks forward, looming over the kneeling agent."You're lucky to still be breathing."
"We will atone for our failure, Lord Danzo. Please, give us another chance."
Danzo stands in silence for a moment, considering his next move. His mind, however, is not just on the failure, but on these Goku and Vegea.
"Forget Sasori for now. Your mission is no longer to capture him. You are to find out weakness of these two. Spy on them. Gather information.
"Go. I want a report on these threats immediately."
