The Days of Being the Richest Man in the Ninja World

Chapter 16. Inspection

---

"There is no other information for now!" 

"Is that so?" 

Hanzo of the Salamander closed the intelligence report and fell silent for a moment. 

His aged body and shattered ambitions made this former demigod of the ninja world begin to fear newcomers. 

Or rather… 

Who isn't afraid of those legendary eyes? 

He worried that everything he currently had would be shattered like bubbles and that he, the demigod of the ninja world, could ultimately be killed by a child. 

How ridiculous! 

Thus, the chaotic Land of Rain needed a demigod of the ninja world the most, and he, as the demigod, was in turn most in need of the chaotic Land of Rain. 

This was why he had been sitting back and watching the turmoil in the country over the past few years. As long as no other ninjas came in… he was still the demigod of the Land of Rain. 

He didn't know how long had passed. 

Hanzo of the Salamander raised his head, recalling a certain secret letter he had received some time ago. 

Once the timing is right… 

He would resolve the troubles in the Land of Rain for them, but those legendary eyes must be handed over to him. 

In truth, it didn't matter; those legendary eyes were inconsequential to Hanzo of the Salamander now. 

After a moment of contemplation, he looked up and said to his trusted aide beside him, "Have there been any updates from over there recently?" 

"None, my lord!" The Rain Ninja shook his head, hesitating before adding, "But…" 

"But what?" Hanzo of the Salamander frowned, displeased. 

"Well…" The Rain Ninja hesitated, unsure how to express it, but eventually pulled out a bounty notice from his ninja pouch and respectfully placed it on Hanzo's desk. "This is the recent bounty from the black market; I heard it's still rising." 

"???" 

Why was he handing me a bounty notice out of the blue? 

Hanzo of the Salamander was taken aback for a moment, lowering his head to look at the notice. 

[Bounty]: Shimura Danzo 

[Strength]: xxx 

[Specialized Ninjutsu]: xxx 

[Evaluation]: An extremely powerful ninja. 

[Bounty Amount]: 350 million ryo (ranked first on the bounty list) 

There was also a serious portrait of Danzo with crossed arms. 

"…" 

Hanzo of the Salamander raised an eyebrow. 

He fell silent. 

Just… continued quietly gazing at the bounty notice on the desk. 

… 

After a series of examinations, Uchiha Yuto put on his merchant's clothing. 

"The overuse of the Sharingan can indeed put a strain on the body," Kana recorded the data, seriously examining him before saying solemnly, "My chakra can restore part of this loss, but I'm not sure if it can recover fully in severe cases, so Lord Yuto needs to be cautious." 

"I understand!" Yuto adjusted his clothes, wiped his mouth, and nodded, "What about the evolution of the Sharingan?" 

It couldn't be as simple as he initially thought, right? 

Otherwise… he'd have to cultivate beloved friends and brothers? 

In truth, he also deeply admired the Third Hokage and Danzo, who silently protected Konoha from the shadows. 

Moreover, the awakening of the Mangekyo Sharingan is largely related to one's inner desires and beliefs. 

Originally, his belief was to become the new god of the ninja world, but after acquiring wealth… Uchiha Yuto found himself starting to lose direction. 

He no longer had a dream. 

Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh. 

"What's wrong, Lord Yuto?" Kana looked at Uchiha Yuto in confusion, but upon seeing his indifferent expression, her soft voice carried a hint of embarrassment. "Sorry, I haven't thought of a solution yet." 

"It's fine." 

If plan A didn't work, he still had plan B! 

Uchiha Yuto casually said, then stretched his bones. "Every time I absorb your chakra, I feel much more comfortable." 

After he spoke, 

Kana nodded seriously, "That's also something Kana has discovered." 

Saying this, she took out a stack of wave graphs. 

"The unique chakra produced by the Sharingan seems to blend with my chakra, making it feel less cold; of course… it seems to vanish in an instant." 

"…" 

I can't understand. 

But it's probably a fusion of Yin Release chakra and Yang Release chakra~ 

Thinking of how his energetic nephew had absorbed for so long and was still in high spirits, Uchiha Yuto didn't mind it anymore. 

But Hashirama could make Sasuke and Madara's eyes evolve into Rinnegan; he wondered if Naruto could also do it? 

Uchiha Yuto checked, "There don't seem to be any other changes in the body, but… I do feel much more spirited." 

As for that graph… he couldn't understand it at all; with the system he had, the operational profits were directly given as results, straightforward and clear. 

"Is that so?" Kana pondered for a moment, then smiled gently. "Perhaps that's a good thing? I'll pay attention and continue to study it." 

"Thank you for your trouble." 

"No need; Kana should be grateful to Lord Yuto." 

At that time, 

Thanks to Yuto, she was able to come here and see her fellow clansmen. 

Kana seemed to remember something and furrowed her brows. "Nagato's Rinnegan is somewhat similar to the Sharingan; I wonder what the ultimate evolution of the Sharingan—the Mangekyo—looks like." 

"…" 

It's part of a system. 

For example, the Uchiha, Senju, and Uzumaki clans all have a common ancestor. 

Of course, Yuto didn't explain. 

After Kana gently drew some blood and collected some samples, the two of them returned upstairs. 

At that moment, 

Yahiko was the only one inside the house. 

Nagato had already gone out to dig a tunnel, and Konan had gone to prepare some explosive tags. 

These guys are really serious. 

He asked Yahiko, who was working hard on his business. 

Yahiko was taken aback, looked up, and frowned. "Rest time? If you're tired, rest when it gets dark. As for vacations, there aren't any because there are too many issues that need to be resolved, so we're short on manpower." 

The Land of Rain had already been affected by war and climate issues, so there were very few people, not to mention ninjas. 

Plus, they had only claimed a small territory, meaning even fewer people. Of course, the future was bright; Yahiko had always believed that. 

Seeing Yuto suddenly clutching his chest, he asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Brother Yuto?" 

"Nothing~" 

Just a sudden pang of conscience. 

He still had some conscience left! 

He was not yet a qualified capitalist. 

Uchiha Yuto sighed, "Thanks to you, Yahiko!" 

"No! It's thanks to your guidance, Brother Yuto!" 

"I've only done a trivial thing." 

He had only made a little money. 

Uchiha Yuto pondered for a moment. "The war has already arrived; although it's currently just a small-scale war, it will only intensify in the future. So, Yahiko, you should prepare for defense. Avoid going out if you can; let's hunker down." 

"War~" Yahiko sighed, seemingly recalling something, a hint of sadness in his eyes. "Is it another war that sweeps through the entire ninja world?" 

"Um." 

"…Nagato, Konan, and I will protect this place." Yahiko paused and nodded seriously, "Brother Yuto, please be assured!" 

"Protecting yourself is the most important." Yuto patted Yahiko's shoulder. "During this time, stock up on some explosive tags, and if there are any for sale outside, buy them! If we can avoid a fight, let's do so and use explosive tags to attack!" 

"That… would be a big loss, Brother Yuto!" Which ninja would fight like that? 

However,

Yuto, who was wealthy and extravagant, patted Yahiko's shoulder. "It's fine, spend freely!"

Don't worry; the chain barbecue restaurant will be opening soon!
