Black Technology? No, Just Ordinary Things That Already Existed
While Hiruzen Sarutobi was using the Will of Fire to brainwash Itachi, at Ichiraku Ramen Shop Konoha...
Feng was wandering around the neighborhood, feeling utterly bored.
He'd been wandering around the area for days. What for? Of course, it was to say hello to the protagonist, Naruto, and leave some 'souvenirs'.
but...
"Holy crap, is this a phone?? This... TV? Bluetooth headset??!"
He discovered something extraordinary in a high-end luxury store not far from Ichiraku Ramen Shop.
'Is this something that the Ninja World can possibly have right now?!'
Feng was greatly surprised. He had only been away from Konoha for a few years, and suddenly advanced technology had appeared.
'No, it seems that these things actually exist in the Ninja World nowadays. I remember when Naruto participated in the Chunin Ninja Exams, Mitarashi Anko wore something that looked like a Bluetooth headset.'
Laptops appeared at Orochimaru's laboratory after the Chunin Ninja Exams, and when Tsunade treated Rock Lee.
Naruto also participated in a mission to protect a television set or a movie star, and a train even appeared in it.
Therefore... the Ninja World isn't lacking in high technology, but rather, no one values it, which prevents its widespread adoption.
Immediately, Feng's thoughts began to wander, taking in these previously overlooked things.
Because of their Chakra, ninjas can run faster than cars and see farther than through a telescope, causing technological advancements to be overlooked.
They were also ignored by the Ninja World and treated as mere trinket for amusement.
However, as someone who came from a world without supernatural powers, Feng knew very well that, in fact, these things, if used well, were no less powerful than Ninjutsu, and some even far surpassed Ninjutsu.
Since the people of the Ninja World don't value it, then don't blame him for taking advantage of the situation and going down this path.
"Hey, is the boss in?"
Feng pushed open the door of the luxury goods store and went straight to the owner.
As for the telephones, televisions, and other items in the store, there's no need to buy them. He plans to pack up the manufacturing plant, along with the people and equipment, and take it with him. Buying finished products is no match for running your own factory.
"Um, sir ninja, I am the shop owner. How can I help you?"
When the people in the shop saw that Feng was wearing clothes with the Uchiha Clan Crest, they immediately realized that they couldn't afford to offend him. The shop owner approached very cautiously and answered carefully, but his smile was polite and not overly obsequious.
Are you the boss?
Do you know where these and others are made?
I want to discuss a big deal with the manufacturer.
Feng picked up an electronic product on display on the counter and asked about it.
Upon hearing this, the shop owner's smile vanished instantly, and he began to examine Feng intently.
Then, in a calm tone, neither arrogant nor obsequious, he began as if stating a perfectly ordinary fact:
"Haha, you're joking, sir. Gate of Opening business, there's no reason to cut off your own source of income."
The source of these items is naturally a closely guarded secret of our shop and cannot be disclosed.
Upon seeing this, Feng smiled.
Then he put his things back on the counter, took out a wad of banknotes from his pocket, placed them on the counter, and patted them.
"How about this? Could you tell me?"
He didn't count the banknotes, but judging from their thickness alone, they amounted to at least several hundred thousand taels.
He believed that business people can negotiate anything; it's simply a matter of whether the money has been paid.
Unexpectedly, the shop owner only glanced at the banknotes on the table. Although his face was full of greed, he neither reached out nor said anything. He just shook his head slightly with a look of regret.
Seeing this, Feng frowned slightly, thinking that the other party was too greedy and hadn't given enough money, so he took out two more stacks of banknotes from his pocket.
"Well then, people should still be content."
Being too greedy can easily lead to unnecessary trouble.
He stared at the shop owner, his words beginning to carry a hint of threat.
It wasn't that he was stingy with the money; this amount was just a drop in the ocean for him, and he didn't care about it at all.
He was just afraid the other party was too greedy and would keep him hanging on without telling the truth.
The shop owner, his eyes fixed on the nearly one million yuan in banknotes on the table, swallowed hard, clenching his hands and kneading them back and forth, clearly wanting it very much.
But then, as if remembering something, he suddenly shivered, turned his head away with great effort, and managed to utter a few words.
"If our esteemed guest wishes to purchase anything, our shop is more than happy to oblige."
But if you're looking for trouble, please don't get any ideas.
"I've been running this shop for seven years. You're not the first person to want to find a manufacturer, and I believe you won't be the last, but I also know that in the end, it will all come to nothing."
Upon hearing this, Feng raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Not the first one?" he repeated slowly, "And it just fizzled out?"
"Right."
The shop owner slowly walked out from behind the counter, then came to the door and pointed to the Hokage Tower in the distance.
"Do you know what kind of place that is? This shop is related to those guys who sit at the highest point Tenten."
Meanwhile, some noblemen from the capital were also involved.
If you dare to ruin this business, the entire Land of Fire will never tolerate you.
So, haha, the customer still wants to ask questions.
Upon hearing this, Feng did not immediately retort, but instead seemed to ponder.
He wasn't afraid of the people sitting in the Hokage Tower or the nobles in the capital of the Land of Fire.
However, he hasn't yet accomplished what he wanted to do back in Konoha. If he were to rashly attract the attention of Konoha's high-ranking officials for these things and ruin his plans, it would be a loss that outweighs the gains.
so...
"These, these, and these, give me three of each."
These, these, one box of each.
As Feng spoke, he pointed to the various products in the shop window.
Since it's not wise to alert them now, let's buy some samples first to study them and see which ones are suitable for promotion and which ones are just for show.
Once we've dealt with the Uchiha matter, we can have a proper talk with this shop owner and find out who made these high-tech products.
At that time, we won't care whether they're Konoha High Command or the Land of Fire's nobles; we'll deal with whoever gets in our way.
"Hehe, alright, buddy, where have you been? Hurry up and wrap up this important guest's things."
Seeing this, the shop owner resumed his polite smile and led his people to carefully pack the items Feng had requested.
After a short while, they were all packed together and sealed with a sealing scroll. The sealing scroll was then respectfully handed to Feng.
"Sir Ninja, everything you requested is here. The full price is 968,720 taels, but you can pay 950,000 taels."
Without further ado, Feng took the sealing scroll, paid the money, and was about to leave when he suddenly stopped after taking a few steps and turned back to look at the shopkeeper.
"Boss," he said, "One last question, will you be here for almost a year?"
"Hehe, don't worry, esteemed guest. Not to mention a year, I'll be here for three to five years if nothing unexpected happens."
If there are any problems with the items, please feel free to come to me.
The shop owner assumed Feng was worried about after-sales service, so he confidently assured him.
"Hehe, really? That's good."
Feng smiled upon hearing this. This boss seemed to have some skill. Although the Uchiha Konoha, this man could face him, Uchiha, with neither arrogance nor servility, and his words were measured.
Moreover, the other party seems to know quite a lot.
With such talent, once the Uchiha matter is settled, we can consider taking him with us as well.
For now, let's continue browsing Ichiraku Ramen Shop and see if we can run into the protagonist of this world today.
At the same time, the Yin Nine-Tails within him was also eager to see what the situation was like with the Jinchūriki who sealed its other half.
