Chapter 171. It's Time to Distribute the Profits

---

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, some time had already gone by.

At this moment—

Land of Wind, Sunagakure.

Inside the Kazekage Building.

"What's the deal with that Konoha businessman?" A young man with short brown hair, dressed in a black ninja outfit with a mesh undershirt, sat with his arms crossed, his face serious as he looked at the other ninjas seated around the round table. "Is he really just a businessman? And not a spy from another nation?"

Uchiha Yuto.

A guy bearing the Uchiha name—how could he possibly be just an ordinary businessman?

Especially recently... Reports of this man had been heard all across the oases of the Land of Wind, and what's more, he was highly popular among local officials.

It was said that he came to the Land of Wind to invest and open businesses.

His movements were clear and deliberate, and his objective seemed straightforward—he had nearly traveled across all the oases in the Land of Wind.

And then there was that surname.

The ninjas of Sunagakure took immediate notice.

After all—

During the Third Ninja World War, an Uchiha had slaughtered enemy ninjas, striking fear into every village.

Many even claimed:

"I would rather face the Three Sannin than clash with an Uchiha!"

Needless to say—

Sunagakure had to be cautious.

Even though the Daimyo's government had cut off funding to Sunagakure, they could not afford to be careless when it came to foreign ninjas.

"Uchiha Yuto?" An elderly woman with grayish hair furrowed her brows slightly, pondering for a moment before speaking. "I feel like I've heard that name before."

As soon as she finished speaking—

An elderly man beside her picked up an intelligence report and began reading: "Uchiha Yuto, a member of the Uchiha clan, younger brother of the current Uchiha Clan Leader. According to investigations, he possesses considerable talent as a ninja, but for some reason, on the very day he graduated from the Academy, he abandoned the ninja path and entered the business world. He also has a strong 'Will of Fire.' He wrote My Konoha, My Hokage, On the Nobility of the Third Hokage and the Elegance of the Hokage's Wife, A Brief Discussion on the Will of Fire Through the Words of the Third Hokage… While in the academy, he published many articles with a strong spirit of the 'Will of Fire.' After venturing into business, within just a few years, he built Yuto Milk Tea, Yuto BBQ, Yuto Dance Hall, Yuto Cinema, Yuto Internet Cafe, and many others. His success has been remarkable."

At this point—

The old man paused, his expression becoming even more serious as he looked at the Fourth Kazekage. "The intelligence on Uchiha Yuto is not confidential. It has been thoroughly investigated. And from the reports, it's clear that he has extraordinary business talent—his businesses have only grown bigger and more successful over the years. Especially…"

He stopped speaking and glanced toward a young black-haired ninja nearby. The black-haired ninja immediately understood and stepped forward, retrieving a few flyers from his ninja pouch and handing them over.

Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, took them out of curiosity.

The first thing that caught his eye—

A masked young man in the advertisement.

[The moment I drink this milk tea, you've already lost.]

[There's nothing a round of Yuto BBQ can't solve. If there is, have another round!]

[My story! Do you dare to film it?]

Seeing this, Rasa's pupils shrank. His expression grew even more serious. "Uchiha Obito…"

"That's right! Just as Kazekage-sama has noticed, Uchiha Yuto made an unexpected move—he hired Uchiha Obito as his brand ambassador! You have to know that Uchiha Obito's reputation in the ninja world... However, he won by surprise and attracted everyone's curiosity at once!"

Ebizo continued with a stern expression. "I heard that at that time, Root Milk Tea and Root BBQ, backed by the Third Hokage, waged a full-scale promotional war against him, offering continuous discounts and deals—yet in the end, they still failed! That alone proves this man's exceptional business talent. Especially Yuto Milk Tea—it has become incredibly popular in the Land of Fire. People passing by just can't resist stopping for a cup!"

"Indeed!" At this moment, Chiyo also nodded seriously, as if recalling something. "I remember when I visited the Land of Fire, I couldn't help but buy two cups myself… And now, seeing those empty bottles… I can't stop craving another two cups!"

"Is it really that good?" Rasa stared at the milk tea on the flyer. For some reason, just looking at it made him feel a bit intrigued. Maybe it was Chiyo's words that had piqued his curiosity. Muttering to himself, he then looked up at Ebizo. "So, he really is just here for business?"

"For now, it's unclear. But based on what we've got, it seems true." Ebizo nodded. "However, according to our investigations, he has been constructing several strange high platforms across the Land of Wind. I don't know what they're used for—perhaps a secret weapon, or maybe a special barrier. Regardless, Sunagakure must remain vigilant!"

"If that's the case…"

Rasa furrowed his brows, resting his hands on his chin in deep thought. After a moment, he turned to a well-endowed woman in a backless outfit. "Pakura, you go personally investigate him. If necessary, bring him to Sunagakure."

"Should I use force?"

"If he's really just a businessman, there's no need. Just keep an eye on his movements."

"Understood!"

"Oh, right!" Chiyo suddenly seemed to recall something, her expression turning serious. "I remember now—I've actually met him once. You must be extremely cautious when dealing with him. He…"

She deliberately dragged out her words, instantly drawing everyone's attention. Even Pakura, who was about to leave for the mission, turned back, eager to gather any useful intel.

However—

"He's ridiculously rich!"

"…"

What does that have to do with us?!

Even Pakura's face twitched. As a ninja of one of the Five Great Ninja Villages, she couldn't just outright rob the guy, could she?

Would businessmen even dare to hire Sunagakure's ninjas after that?

Rolling her eyes, she said, "I'll go prepare now."

With that, she left.

Even Chiyo, who had more to say, didn't get the chance to finish.

"Eh? Wait a moment." Watching Pakura's silhouette disappear, Chiyo could only sigh helplessly. "I wasn't done yet!"

"Sister, what else were you planning to say?" Ebizo sighed. "What does his wealth have to do with Sunagakure?"

"It's true he is rich, and his wealth is none of our business, but…" Chiyo let out a deep sigh, her eyelid twitching slightly. With a profound gaze, she slowly said, "He… has a lot of explosive tags."

Silence.

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other. What did she mean by that?

Even if he had a lot of explosive tags… ten or twenty wouldn't be a big deal. With Pakura's strength, it wouldn't be a threat.

Surely… it wasn't hundreds of tags, right?

I mean—what kind of normal person carries that many explosive tags?! Wouldn't they just blow themselves up?!

"Achoo!"

Yuto sneezed and declined an invitation from a local official to experience the Land of Wind's customs. He staggered slightly, his face flushed from mild intoxication, as his guards supported him back to his temporary residence.

His plan had gone unexpectedly well.

He hadn't even needed to use his "painting-buying" negotiation skill, yet the Land of Wind had welcomed him with open arms.

The only problem left—he still hadn't found a way to deal with Sunagakure…

If things didn't work out, he was going to throw money at the problem!

There was no way those broke ninjas could resist, right?

As the cool desert night breeze brushed against him, he shook his head to clear his thoughts. His Land of Wind project was almost complete. If Sunagakure didn't cooperate soon, he'd be heading back.

[I wonder what kind of movie Danzo and his team are filming…?]

To be honest… he was very curious.

Just then—

Ding Ding!

A message arrived on his [Nin-Nin].

Yuto opened it curiously, and seeing the sender's blinking avatar, he immediately understood.

Opening the message, he saw it—

[Little White Man 10086] sent a message:

[That manager… It's time to distribute the profits!]
