Civilian Naruto: Becoming invincible from the Eight Gates

Chapter 862 Carrick Decides to Wait a Little Longer

I don't think I've ever seen Bulma speak to me in this tone before.

Am I still not fully awake today?

Why don't you go back and get some more sleep?

"I don't like your job, so leave me alone and mind your own business."

Bulma pushed Bumriff away impatiently. He had come to bother her so early in the morning, and when he saw her playing a game, he made this wailing sound.

I've never seen her like this before.

“I can’t just watch you waste your talent like this. You inherited my genes. I didn’t really care if you played around before, but now I’ve discovered that your talent is even greater than I imagined.”

Brief was still trying to persuade his beloved daughter with his own experience, but unfortunately, his words had no effect.

This only made Bulma more rebellious and even more irritable.

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. I've already said I only do research on things that interest me, and I don't like what you're doing."

Bulma was still trying to argue when Suzumiya Musashi stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. "Alright, Bulma's all grown up now. Let her do what she likes. The more you try to persuade her, the more upset she'll get."

Sometimes he really couldn't understand it. Didn't Brief always let Bulma do whatever she wanted?

Why did they change their attitude so early this morning? Is it because of the wish Bulma made to Shenron last time?

Perhaps it was because he felt that Bulma's talent was too high, and that making those childish inventions was simply a waste of life, that Brief reacted so excitedly. Suzumiya Musashi felt that he was quite close to the truth.

However, although he understood the father's feelings, he did not quite agree with the other party's sudden change of attitude.

There has to be a gradual approach; it's impossible for Brief to suddenly make Bulma change.

Moreover, sometimes interest is the most important thing. If you have no interest in something, no matter how talented you are, you can't reach the top level. So you have to take it slowly.

Being impatient will not only be pointless, but will also make things worse.

"Sigh, my daughter has grown up and doesn't listen to me anymore."

In the end, Brief just sighed and didn't say anything more, but his body became even more hunched, trying to use this sob story to move Bulma's heart.

However, he was overthinking things.

Bulma didn't even look at him, snorted and turned to Suzumiya Musashi, "Good morning, Uncle Musashi, what would you like for breakfast? I'll go buy it for you."

"Didn't Lanqi make breakfast today?"

Suzumiya Musashi was somewhat surprised. He said that something felt missing today, and it turned out that there was no food on the table.

And there are two fewer people.

Lan Qi and Karin Uzumaki have both disappeared.

"Sister Lanqi and Sister Karin went out. They said they wanted to buy some new clothes or something, so they went out early in the morning."

Bulma explained, her cheeks still puffed up with anger, that she could have gone with them if Brief hadn't stopped her. It was just that they were delayed for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared.

She also wants to buy some pretty new clothes to wear.

"Oh, I see. But going out to buy clothes so early in the morning, isn't that a bit...?"

Suzumiya Musashi nodded. It was a very good reason, but it was a shame to go out to buy clothes so early in the morning. Were the stores even open yet?

But I didn't say much more; after all, let them do what they like.

Besides, they're the ones enjoying the visual feast of wearing beautiful clothes.

There's nothing much to say about buying clothes; he had just thought Lan Qi had turned blonde again.

If that's the case, I'll have to clean up that mess myself.

...

Underground laboratory.

Because of the promise, Dr. Groh now seems to do everything with extra passion, looking as if he has become 20 years younger.

"Has this guy gone mad? He's acting so strangely today."

Carrick, however, felt that the guy in front of him seemed to have something wrong with him.

He had a lot of things to do, and the other man was constantly giving him orders. If he weren't now a prisoner, he would have rebelled long ago.

Of course, he could choose to resist now, since he had secretly removed the bombs that had been implanted in his body.

But he always felt that if he resisted, he would likely be suppressed on the spot.

Although I've never seen those two androids make a move, I always felt that their eyes were extremely cold.

Look at yourself as if you were an inanimate object.

Although Carrick comforted himself by telling himself that he was the Demon King and that these two beings, who were not even mortals, had nothing to fear, his heart was still pounding.

It was precisely this thought that made him hesitate, unsure whether he should rebel.

"What are you doing standing here in a daze? Hurry up, I asked you to bring me something, why are you taking so long?"

Dr. Gro started urging them on. The other party was not only experimental material but also his current assistant. Although all he could provide was some parts, it would at least save some effort.

Carrick turned away somewhat reluctantly, but finally decided to wait until a better time to make his move; now was clearly not the time to act.

"What's wrong with this guy? I was hoping to make a contribution."

Android 17, who had been observing from the shadows, withdrew his gaze with some disappointment. He had been keeping a close eye on Carrick's movements and knew very well that the guy was likely to choose to explode on the spot.

But I didn't expect that I still overestimated this guy.

After enduring for so long, have you still not chosen to take action?

It seems like it will be a long time before he makes a move, but Android 17 doesn't seem to be in a hurry.

Anyway, I'll be spending a lot of time in the lab, mainly because I'm still not very familiar with my own body.

Moreover, there are still many things that need to be debugged so that I can become stronger.

Android 17, who has always been suppressed by her older sister, is still very resentful.

"How boring, that guy is so honest."

Lazuli, standing to the side, said calmly that she was actually quite looking forward to that guy making a move, so that she would have an excuse to get closer to Suzumiya Musashi again.

Unfortunately, Carrick seems to have gone along with his heart.
