What the hell is making games in the Ninja World?

The final research proposal was approved.

The research on side-effect-free aphrodisiac pills didn't really matter. The main goal was to contribute to Konoha and the shinobi world through scientific advancements, making the world more harmonious and better.

Both Utatane Koharu, a high-ranking member of Konoha, and Mitokado Homura, were very supportive of the plan. Homura, being an older man, had some concerns that needed addressing.

As for Utatane Koharu, when she saw that the second project in the research was about making skin tighter and more youthful, she also expressed that this research was essential. 

It had to be done, and done on a large scale. All support, aside from material resources, must be provided to contribute to Konoha's peaceful development.

After all, since Konoha didn't have to spend money on this and it wouldn't increase the financial burden, full support was necessary.

Thus, the plan to build a top-tier laboratory was unanimously approved. 

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately designated a large plot of land on the outskirts of Konoha for Orochimaru and Uchiha Kai to handle.

Naturally, Uchiha Kai wouldn't personally handle such tasks. 

After informing Orochimaru about the approval, he simply followed procedures and sent out the contract for the laboratory construction to the Konoha Merchant Guild, leaving the professional work to the experts.

As for the supervision, Kai left that to Orochimaru, knowing that for him, it was just a matter of using a shadow clone to handle it.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Kai continued to work on "Escape" and used the accumulated emotional values for occasional lottery draws. 

As the new month arrived, the shop had refreshed its inventory, and Kai eagerly swept up all the useful items.

The potions that increased his own attributes were naturally used by him. The other items were sorted through, and one purple item was directly handed over to Orochimaru for research.

This item was named the "Aphrodisiac Formula."

Yes, you read that correctly—an aphrodisiac formula with no side effects. Uchiha Kai wasn't just making excuses when he mentioned researching aphrodisiac pills in the proposal; it was something real.

As for why the system would make such an item, the item's description explained it clearly:

[Aphrodisiac Formula: A side-effect-free aphrodisiac production formula. Special note: Please take care of your programmers and other overtime workers. As a boss, you need to care about all aspects of their lives. Provide them with the best support and satisfaction in life, so they can wholeheartedly dedicate themselves to you, becoming your most loyal subordinates.]

"Well, not even pretending anymore, huh? Just straight up calling the employees beasts."

"This system is really born."

"Though, the things are quite useful."

After Orochimaru received the recipe for the aphrodisiac, his face twitched, but he didn't refuse. He knew very well that, although it seemed shady, it was a good tool to change the situation. 

Once mass production succeeded, it would immediately bring huge economic and political benefits.

Although the term "aphrodisiac" doesn't sound elegant, it's a necessity from the highest-ranking Daimyo to the common people. 

As long as you're a man, no one can resist—especially when there are no side effects. Even those who think their health is perfect would probably have no issue using it.

So, before the newly built laboratory, which was actually a research facility, was even completed, Orochimaru had already started researching the aphrodisiac in his basement at home, attempting to use materials available in the ninja world to perfect the recipe.

By the way, Orochimaru already had a tablet, a laptop, and a solar-powered charger, all provided by Uchiha Kai.

As for how these things came about...

"Speaking of which, Orochimaru-san, you might think it's amazing, but this is actually the result of my summoning technique. It seems that the changes in the Genjutsu world have affected my summoning technique. Now, I can summon all sorts of strange things—things that either don't exist in the ninja world or surpass current ninja technology."

Uchiha Kai said this to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru believed him because summoning techniques are indeed such a magical jutsu. While it's rare to summon strange things due to variations in the technique, it's not unheard of.

Not to mention, Orochimaru's good friend Jiraiya once had a summoning mistake and ended up summoning himself to Myoboku Mountain.

Anyway, for this reason, Orochimaru, the number one scientific madman in the ninja world, embarked on the grand path of creating aphrodisiac pills.

Of course, Orochimaru didn't put all his energy into research. Instead, he sent out shadow clones to handle the task. 

His main body, on the other hand, entered the vast library of the mental network world and became immersed in studying without escape.

It must be explained that Orochimaru's ability to enter the mental network world at any time is due to Uchiha Kai's mental network mastery being upgraded to level 3. 

This function, combined with the power of the Sharingan, allows him to implant a login port in the minds of others, enabling them to access Uchiha Kai's mental network world through this port.

In essence, he created a mental local area network, with Uchiha Kai as the server. As long as someone has a login port within a certain range, they can access the server through the local area network.

Currently, the effective range is calculated to be a radius of 10 kilometers. However, if there are methods to interfere with the mental domain, the range will shrink or even become ineffective.

Despite these limitations, the concept of the "mental network" was practically demonstrated.

Uchiha Kai estimated that if he continued upgrading his mental network mastery, the next step would be to acquire the technology to build large-scale servers.

Once the technology is complete, "the sacred Kara will connect each and every one of us" will no longer be a dream.

Of course, this is just Uchiha Kai's guess. Whether it can be achieved will depend on the system's skill upgrade.

For now, Uchiha Kai provided login ports to both Orochimaru and Uzumaki Kikyō, calling them "mental seeds" to help them better understand the concept.

As for maintaining the "local area network," it depends on Uchiha Kai's mental power. The network doesn't continuously drain mental power, as it only builds a "virtual reality" world within his mental network.

With Uchiha Kai's current mental power, he can provide seven slots. He also has candidates in mind for the remaining slots, and naturally, Uzumaki Kushina and Minato Namikaze are two of them.

The reason they haven't received their slots yet is because Minato Namikaze has yet to return, and Uzumaki Kushina, as a jinchuriki with the Nine-Tails inside her, is always being watched. Without proper security, Uchiha Kai won't casually give her a slot.

The remaining three spots were already on Uchiha Kai's mind, though he hadn't made any final decisions yet.

Anyway, one of them had to be kept as a backup.

By the way, the management rights to the mental network world were always in Uchiha Kai's hands. 

With just a thought, anyone entering the mental network world would be kicked out without any ability to resist, so he wasn't worried about anyone causing trouble in there.
