Then Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Mirai again. "I did my best for you this time. You did very well. Rest in the village for now. What are your plans for the future?"
Mirai nodded. It was not as though he lacked any special experience now. After killing Mabui last time, Mabui's experience points and the rewards from copying her had been a huge gain. He now had over ten million experience points, but he lacked money! "Mirai is going into business!" he declared.
"What? Business?!" Granny and the monkey were both stunned. Mirai was going into business! He was only seven years old! Even if he temporarily did not want to become a ninja, he could still become a demon-like force hidden within Konoha's military corps! They could neither deceive men nor control women. But if Mirai wanted to do business, the implications would be enormous!
If it were anyone else, people would ask what a seven-year-old child knew. What did he know about economics? Wouldn't he just fail? Konoha's economy was very powerful, but also very fragile. If Mirai truly insisted on going his own way and used the Mirai family's money, Konoha's economy could easily collapse. No one would be able to clean up the mess!
But this was Mirai! A genius prodigy who had created countless legends! He had been making legends almost from the moment he was born! Hadn't the rapidly growing chickens from his "research" brought Konoha enormous profits?
"Mm, Mirai thought it through carefully! Before his hand recovers, Mirai needs to find a better path in Konoha!" Mirai smiled as he looked at his hand. This excuse seemed pretty good. Look at what a fine excuse he had found!
Sarutobi Hiruzen was moved by Mirai as well! What? He really was a good boy.
