"Eh?"
Yahiko looked at Kiyoshi in surprise.
Why would he know that Akatsuki is now short of ninja tools?
"Why did you..."
"Why do I know, right?"
Kiyoshi knows what Yahiko wants to ask.
He would know that the current Akatsuki lacks ninja tools is very simple, that is, the official novel "The Secret Story of Akatsuki - The Flower of Evil Blooming All Over" tells about this matter in chapter Konan.
Konan recalled all the experiences he and Yahiko had, including this kind of embarrassment.
No one sells them ninja tools, and the price they can sell them for is extremely high, which Akatsuki cannot afford.
"You can tell from the fact that the Kunai and shurikens you people use are in tatters."
Kiyoshi certainly couldn't point at an Akatsuki member who was maintaining a ninja tool for such a reason.
When the ninja saw the others looking over him, he immediately put away his shuriken with obvious gaps in embarrassment.
Normal shurikens have four corners. If the shuriken is missing one corner, its stability will be greatly affected.
If you continue to use such shurikens, the only possibility is that you are short of money.
Yahiko scratched his head, this is true.
They are all like-minded ninjas, so they gather together.
All of them are civilians, and without investment from the ninja clan, their daily expenses require many commissions to maintain.
"Trading ninja tools?"
Konan was surprised, and his beautiful blue eyes looked at Kiyoshi.
The white flower decoration in front of the hairpin swayed gently on the head with the evening breeze, and a few slender blue hair strands were flying.
Can Kiyoshi take charge of these things?
"Our Uchiha Clan's weapons come from the Ninja Cat Clan. I can purchase them and resell them to you. The market price can be lower."
Kiyoshi added.
The profit here is not small, and it is zero cost for Kiyoshi.
But what he values is not money, but the opportunity to contact Akatsuki.
With this level of relationship, wouldn't it be much easier to let things take their own course?
"I don't think anyone in the clan will oppose me."
Kiyoshi said lightly.
This is the case with family-run ninjas.
When the ninja is weak, the family will provide shelter and use the family's power to skin the tiger.
When that ninja grows up and can feed back to the family, he himself becomes the tiger skin.
The growth of Kiyoshi is obvious to all.
If he makes some quick money, no one will say anything, and he might even get a favor.
After all, the current Akatsuki is just an ordinary small organization with ideals.
It's not Akatsuki who will be wanted by various countries in the future and regarded as a thorn in his side.
"You say so, Sister Mikoto."
Kiyoshi said lightly.
Ninja Cat Clan, in addition to trading with Uchiha, will also trade with other forces.
However, Uchiha Clan generation is the honored guest there, and what they get are the best batch of ninja tools.
Therefore, they are deeply bound to the Uchiha Clan. Most of the orders are from Uchiha's ninjas. It is no wonder that they are Uchiha Clan's exclusive ninja shop.
Now Kiyoshi is just using it to earn the price difference.
Ninja Cat Clan won't say anything. After all, the brand name is Uchiha, and it's not their Ninja Cat. They are out of the closet and will not be held responsible.
Then Kiyoshi took out a piece of clothing from Sealing Scroll and put it on.
His shirt had exploded during the battle with Shinno, and he walked around naked.
"The clan... will indeed not oppose you."
Mikoto thought for a while and said
Uchiha Clan is a wealthy family. If you want to live a decent life, in addition to accepting commissions as a ninja, various businesses are also essential.
There are also various robbers, bandits, etc. in the world of ordinary people, so those wealthy businessmen will want to be protected by the Uchiha Clan to deter others.
These give out lots of dividends every year.
In addition, Uchiha has a large population. Most of the clan members are actually ordinary people, and many of them will choose to take care of the family business.
Something like Kiyoshi is a way to make money.
But you can only bear the consequences.
In the past, there were cases where Uchiha had transactions with outsiders, but the outsiders simply took the money and ran away.
"Kiyoshi, this matter is too involved, don't you think about it carefully?"
Mikoto said.
It is very risky to rashly conduct such a transaction with an organization. Is Kiyoshi so sure that he will not do anything?
To be honest, she didn't trust people from these small countries.
I don't want to see Kiyoshi suffer.
"No need, the leader of Akatsuki is an aboveboard person at first glance, and I think this organization is the same."
Kiyoshi's words have won the favor of many Akatsuki members.
Along the way, Kiyoshi was the first ninja from a major country to support them.
And he was born into a wealthy and famous family like Uchiha Clan Shinobi World.
"Thank you so much, Kiyoshi-kun, I am Yahiko."
Yahiko held the back of Kiyoshi's hand with the other hand, and held Kiyoshi's hand with both hands excitedly.
The title also directly adds the word "jun".
He had been to many ninja shops before, and those shops either did not provide them with ninja tools, or sold them at high prices.
Today's Akatsuki is still very short of funds, and the price tag attached to it is still a bit expensive for them.
In other words, in addition to Xiao, even Amegakure many local ninjas will feel expensive.
Because in a small country like Land of Rain, not many people have the feelings of family and country.
To put it bluntly, ninja tool shops are arms dealers. They only care about money, and all their ninja tools are sold to ninjas from big countries at high prices.
The stronger the country's power, the more high-quality commissions the Ninja Village will receive, and the ninjas there will naturally be richer than the ninjas from smaller countries.
This is why Five Great Nations will take the initiative to organize Chunin Ninja Exams, and the ninjas from nearby small countries will also participate.
Chunin Ninja Exams is a good opportunity to show the strength of Ninja Village to the outside world.
Nagato also looked surprised.
Unexpectedly, Konoha Ninja, whom he had always hated, would actually offer them a deal.
"You're welcome, this is also an investment of mine. I'm optimistic about you. For example, this young lady seems to have great potential. She uses "Paper" so well."
Kiyoshi's eyes fell on Konan again.
Konan's black robe became dry after being soaked by the rain, but it still clung to the graceful curves.
Coupled with that charming and delicate face, it gives people a sense of temptation.
Konan is one of the few ninjas who chooses lip piercing.
I don't know if it's because the timeline is much later than the original work, but Konan now has lip nails.
In the original book, she got her lip nails after Yahiko died, so the lip nails were probably Chakra Receivers.
Kiyoshi's gaze made Konan frown slightly. She always felt that Kiyoshi was thinking of something bad.
On second thought, Kiyoshi saved her and Nagato, and even provided Akatsuki with a stable channel for ninja tools.
She could only comfort herself that she was worrying too much.
Kiyoshi This helped them a lot. Konan still remembers the scene when several of them were rejected by the ninja shop.
Land of Rain's ninja shop is a group of self-interested businessmen. They are obviously from Land of Rain, but they don't think about their own country.
If the ninjas of Iwagakure or Sunagakure attack, I'm afraid they will turn to please them in order to survive.
Then, those people used the ninja tools they bought in Land of Rain village to kill other Land of Rain people.
"This is Konan, my companion, the red-haired one is Nagato, this..."
Yahiko introduced the Akatsuki members to Kiyoshi enthusiastically, and Kiyoshi nodded slightly.
The two then left the shelter and discussed some details in a barely intact house, such as where the first batch of goods would be traded, how much it would cost, how long it would take, etc.
Others went out one after another to deal with the mess that Shinno had made in the village.
During the transaction, Kiyoshi mostly cooperated with Xiao's situation, and the only contact person who made the request was Konan.
"Konan?"
Yahiko was stunned.
Why do you need Konan?
He thought Kiyoshi would designate him as the leader.
In the end, the two set the location at the border between Land of Rain and Land of Fire.
Regarding Kiyoshi's proposal, Yahiko didn't think much about it. He just thought that Konan was a rare woman among Akatsuki and was more eye-catching.
And it's not good for Konan Tenten to stay among men. He has to go out occasionally to see different scenery.
At this time, it was countless kilometers away on the other side.
Ginka Hyuga knocked on a door.
"Please come in."
In the office, there is Rin Nohara wearing a white coat.
She was recording something on the table, and after a while she looked at Ginka Hyuga and asked her to sit down.
Ginka Hyuga came in and sat on the chair in front of Rin Nohara.
She is wearing a conservative kimono. If you look from behind the chair, you can see that the back of the kimono is close to her back, outlining a delicate and smooth back groove. Under the long back groove is the outline of the plump buttocks.
Black hair, snow-skinned skin, broad shoulders and plump body... these graceful physical features can only belong to a mature woman.
"Do you have anything you want to ask?"
Rin Nohara said.
Now she also has her own independent office.
I usually work part-time at Konoha Hospital, which is a source of income to support my family and improve my medical skills.
"I want to know if Nobuhiko's situation has improved recently."
"Nobuhiko Hyuga Is that right? Let me look for it."
Rin Nohara heard of Nobuhiko Hyuga.
A unique case like this is somewhat famous.
Soon, she found out information about Nobuhiko Hyuga's current health status and whether his eyes were infected.
"Much better."
Rin Nohara came up with a report.
Hearing this, Ginka Hyuga felt a little relieved.
"Are there any more eyes for Nobuhiko in the hospital?"
Ginka Hyuga asked.
Rin Nohara shook his head when he heard this.
The technology is not perfect.
At that time, she performed a transplant operation on Kakashi and took many risks.
Nowadays, equipment is available, which can certainly improve the success rate a lot, but the risks are still high.
Moreover, the hospital does not have spare eyes suitable for Hyuga people.
The meridian system near the Hyuga Clan eyes is thicker than that of ordinary people. When they use Byakugan, they will feel like the veins on their foreheads are bulging.
If you want to fit the eyes of Hyuga people, you have to look for those whose eyeballs are naturally enlarged in their meridian system.
Of course, if you transplant a new pair of Byakugan, you don't need to pay so much attention.
Rin Nohara explained the difficulty to Ginka Hyuga.
Ginka Hyuga's face suddenly turned ugly, and his straight back also bent.
squeak...
The chair made a noise.
"Sorry."
Ginka Hyuga apologized to Rin Nohara. He was so excited just now that he almost lost control of Chakra and collapsed the chair.
"It's okay. If you want to transplant eyeballs, maybe you can ask Kiyoshi. He also knows Lady Tsunade and Lord Orochimaru."
Rin Nohara said.
Kiyoshi has a wide network of contacts.
I have inherited the connections Yakushi Nonō accumulated in the hospital, and I also know Orochimaru, a leader in the field of scientific research.
As for Tsunade, needless to say, Konoha Hospital is the best doctor.
If he wants to find eyeballs, there should be some channels.
"Kiyoshi?"
Ginka Hyuga murmured repeatedly.
In fact, she went to find Kiyoshi, but Kiyoshi went to Land of Rain to perform a mission, leaving Ginka Hyuga in vain.
"Have to go again."
Ginka Hyuga secretly said.
After Ginka Hyuga left, Rin Nohara stretched out and packed up all the documents for today.
There are still a few minutes until get off work ends.
Ginka Hyuga was the last person to consult.
"I'm alone again."
Rin Nohara said to himself.
She stretched out and found a piece of scratch paper on the table to pass the time writing.
She drew a Q version of Kiyoshi, deliberately making it look silly.
Then Rin Nohara added two devil horns to Kiyoshi's head.
"Hey, hey, go on a mission without saying a word. This is punishment."
Rin Nohara continues to write and draw boringly, adding more details to the Q version Kiyoshi.
Originally, she planned to go to Kiyoshi to ask a question about Medical Arts, but Kiyoshi went directly to perform the task.
Rin Nohara I have been waiting for several days and still haven't received it.
Rin Nohara, who was obsessed with painting, didn't notice at all that there was a man in black robe staring at the rooftop of another building.
"Lin..."
Even though he kept telling himself that the current Lin was fake, Obito still made waves.
He wanted to touch Lin.
He wanted Lin's eyes to focus on him again.
"I... are actually wavering?"
Obito found that his palms were sweaty.
Can you still resist seeing Lin with your own eyes again?
Obito is disappointed with his weak nature.
Suddenly, Obito's pupils shrank.
The character Lin drew is...Kiyoshi?
Obito felt the anger of betrayal in his heart.
"What I have in my hand... is rain."
Obito raised his head.
The sky turned gray at some point.
Rain fell from the sky and quickly became dense.
It rained heavily and the cold wind howled.
Once again it blew through Obito's hell-like empty heart, as if it was the ghostly wind from hell.
Tobi, who was attached to Obito, felt that Obito seemed to have changed again.
"Hashirama Cells" merged into Obito at an astonishing speed.
A human face should not have appeared on him, but it became increasingly clear.
Tobi I have only seen this face on Madara's chest.
"We need to speed up Nagato's plan..."
Obito's voice became firm again and disappeared in place.
The next day.
Kiyoshi of Land of Rain and Mikoto, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi set foot on the road back together.
Thanks to Kiyoshi's heroic performance last night, they won the support of the villagers, used the best house, and spent a relatively good night.
There was no need to worry about the speed of Shinno and his disciple Makado like when they arrived, the four of them hurried on much faster.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Kiyoshi and others also arrived at Konoha, who had been away for a long time.
The first time I went back, I went to Hokage's Office Building to hand over the task.
"Did something like this actually happen?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi smoked a cigarette and remained silent.
It almost led to a crisis, but fortunately Kiyoshi did a good job and stopped Shinno in advance.
If we wait for Shinno to mass produce Land of Sky's flying fortresses, it will also be a challenge for Konoha.
As of the third Shinobi World attack, Konoha's troop strength has bottomed out.
Ninja Academy implemented the early graduation policy, and as soon as he graduated, he had to lead Kunai to the battlefield.
"You did a great job Kiyoshi."
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Kiyoshi with relief.
Whenever I think of myself adjusting Kiyoshi to Anbu, Hiruzen Sarutobi I feel like I did the right thing.
A high-potential genius like Kiyoshi must invest in advance to provide help when needed.
Investment after growth is called adapting to the wind and icing on the cake.
"It's nothing. Wherever Konoha flies, fire also Unceasing Vitality. This is what I should do."
Kiyoshi said.
As for handing over "Zero-Tails Technique", Kiyoshi has no such plan at all.
Asking is to be destroyed along with Royal Capital Fortress.
Even if they go to investigate, they can only find ruins.
It is estimated that many Land of Rain villagers have dismantled those parts in exchange for some money.
"Okay."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded again.
Then he looked at his second son who was careless and incompetent at all.
There was an instant feeling that there would be no harm without comparison.
"Asuma, you should study like Kiyoshi."
Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke.
Kurenai Yuhi frowned slightly.
Silently, he took a small step back and stood behind Kiyoshi.
Well, Kiyoshi still smells good.
Kurenai Yuhi thought so.
Kurenai Yuhi really doesn't understand people like Hokage-sama who like to smoke.
Smoking smells bad, and smoking too much can easily lead to cancer. Why do people still smoke tirelessly?
"I know, old man...Hokage-sama."
In formal occasions, Asuma Sarutobi still did not call out the old man directly.
He had to give him the face he deserved. After all, his father was the head of the village.
It's just that Hiruzen Sarutobi's words made him very uncomfortable.
Especially saying that in front of Hong.
Classic other people's children.
He is just behind Kiyoshi now.
Let's see what other people say when he goes out to make a name for himself in the future.
Asuma Sarutobi's thoughts of running away became more and more serious.
Not because of the war, I would probably leave that night.
After several people handed over the task and received the reward, they left here one after another.
Shinno paid the remuneration in advance. Even if he himself has died, it will not affect Kiyoshi and the others from receiving the money.
"Sister, I'm going to buy some ingredients first."
Mikoto suddenly said at the door of Hokage's Office Building.
"Okay, Sister Mikoto, please do your business first."
Kiyoshi kept the reward this time and nodded to Mikoto.
During this time, he became very familiar with Mikoto, and their relationship made progress every day.
So there is no need to rush.
He had slowed Itachi's birth.
The remaining time is to change Mikoto into its own shape and explore the art of Yin-Yang Release.
The so-called Yin Release can "cast the shape" and change it into the shape you want.
And Yang Release can "inject life" into the form.
When the old-fashioned and honest Fugaku reacts, there is nothing he can do.
In the final analysis, the two have not confirmed any relationship.
Speaking of which, Kiyoshi also holds great righteousness.
"Okay."
Mikoto waved to Kiyoshi.
The lunch box prepared has been finished long ago, and Mikoto plans to make some more.
The dishes made by Kiyoshi are really good.
Well, I will send a copy to Kiyoshi later.
Mikoto thought this way and walked to the vegetable market.
"Then I'll leave first."
Kiyoshi said to Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi.
There is more to come.
Practice "Eight Gates Formation" and study the corpse of Shinno.
Kiyoshi is very interested in Shinno's method of calling Dark Chakra.
His forbidden medical techniques are all inseparable from Dark Chakra.
Once the acupuncture point is sealed and the Chakra cannot be used, it will be unusable.
By studying Shinno's body, Kiyoshi can reverse engineer this information.
As for using illusions to torture Shinno, with Zero-Tails's presence, it would be difficult to cast illusions.
Therefore, Kiyoshi chose to reverse engineer it himself.
"Puppet Clones can be separated out a little more and can be given to this part of Puppet Clones for research."
Kiyoshi secretly said.
On his way back to the village these days, [Azure Beast (purple)] and [Perfect Physique (gold)] were subtly strengthening his physical body.
The tolerance for Puppet Clones is also stronger.
"Ah, okay, I'll go back first."
Kurenai Yuhi originally wanted to ask Kiyoshi for a walk in the evening, but then he thought that his father Mahiru Yuhi might have been worried about him, and Kiyoshi was also very busy, so he decided to go see Kiyoshi tomorrow.
Watching Kiyoshi and Kurenai Yuhi say goodbye to him and then walking to their respective homes, Asuma Sarutobi lowered his head and looked at the reward in his hand.
He plans to invest the money in fitness.
"Captain Fugaku, isn't that Mikoto?"
Uchiha Yakumi and Fugaku Uchiha were patrolling the streets, and Uchiha Yakumi, who was maintaining law and order, pointed at a plump figure.
"Mikoto... It seems she is back from her mission."
Fugaku looked over, and with his eyesight, he easily recognized the figure in front of him who was bargaining with a village woman from behind. It was Mikoto.
I just don't know why Mikoto smiles when he is bargaining.
Fugaku I guess Mikoto is in a good mood lately.
Before, Mikoto felt sad in various ways because of the news that he was slandered. Now that he can see Mikoto come out, Fugaku is very happy.
He doesn't want the woman he likes to live in depression all the time.
"Fugaku Captain, you can go if you want."
Uchiha Yakumi gave Fugaku a knowing look.
Mikoto and Fugaku had a good relationship before. They just had to break the window paper, confirm their relationship and start dating.
That is to complete the transformation of friends and lovers.
He supports Captain Fugaku to pursue his own happiness.
"Let's go, we still have a mission now."
After thinking about it, Fugaku didn't go.
It's not a good idea to disturb Mikoto now. After saying hello, he didn't have time to accompany Mikoto.
We can only make Mikoto wait a little longer.
When the public opinion that slandered him is over, when he is done with his work during this period, and when the war is over, he will have time to find Mikoto.
"Alas."
Uchiha Yakumi sighed.
Fugaku Captain is really confident.
But apart from the captain Fugaku, there is only Kiyoshi, a young junior, who is close to Mikoto.
I think Mikoto will continue to wait for Fugaku.
After all, given their age, Mikoto and Kiyoshi look like a normal brother-sister relationship, just out of care for the younger generation.
The two turned around and continued patrolling.
After a while, Mikoto seemed to sense the line of sight and looked back, but there was nothing.
"Forget it, let's try the Mapo Tofu mentioned by Kiyoshi today."
Mikoto thought this way, carrying a bag of fresh tofu to buy other ingredients and spices.
It's approaching evening.
Kiyoshi finally returned home.
Thanks to me again, Reading Frenzy Azure Emperor for the reward.
Brother Azure Emperor is now the book's top sponsor!
