Chapter 4. Do You Know the Bubble Tea Shop at the Village Entrance?

---

Yuto sneezed and rubbed his nose, unaware that the Third Hokage and the Leader of Root were currently praising him.

He lowered his head to look at this year's data.

The development of the bubble tea shop had reached its peak.

Especially with the wars in recent years becoming increasingly intense, in another year or two, a full-scale war would likely break out, making business even harder.

Unless he could open his bubble tea shops all over the ninja world, but at this stage, that was impossible.

In times of war, how could the various ninja villages allow a Uchiha, of all people, to freely open shops in their villages or countries?

What if he was a spy with ulterior motives? 

What?

You said he has been expelled from the Uchiha clan?

Who would believe that?

It's not like his eyes were gouged out. Even if they were, people still wouldn't believe it.

So, at this stage, using the Uchiha name made business in the Land of Fire much easier. But trying to do business in other countries... that would be nothing but trouble.

Uchiha Yuto looked at the interface of The Rich Man in Here. The next unlockable business was a BBQ restaurant. According to the system's settings, as long as it was built, he would definitely make money. So, the question wasn't whether to build it, but how to build it to maximize profit.

Land wasn't a big issue. Even if he couldn't buy it, he could rent it. As one of the two founding clans of Konoha, although the village's perception of the Uchiha wasn't great, the clan still owned quite a bit of land. As long as he asked, he believed his stoic brother would definitely give it to him.

No problem there!

"Materials and workers are also easy to find. Once the construction is almost complete, I can have the system modify it and integrate it."

You could say... he was destined to become the richest man.

And he needed to keep an eye on Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Shisui, and Uchiha Obito as well.

Their tendency to act impulsively wasn't a good trait! Uchiha Yuto decided to use money to corrupt their pure hearts, to make them realize that the world had many temptations.

Becoming prodigals was far better than becoming terrorists.

He silently looked at the First Edition of the Uchiha Clan Elderly Care Plan in his hands. "Let's go with this for now. If there are any imperfections, I'll fix them later." Then he shouted loudly, "Suzune~"

…

"Grandma! Today's dinner is so bountiful!"

"Because Obito has graduated!" The elderly woman sitting next to Obito smiled kindly, "We have to celebrate today. Obito has finally become an excellent ninja!"

"That's right, Grandma! I'll definitely become a super strong ninja." Seeing his grandmother so happy because of him, Obito puffed out his chest, laughing heartily like a child, "I'll make Kakashi piss off to death!"

Today you look down on me, but this genius Obito will make sure that tomorrow you'll never reach his level.

"Come, come! Obito, you must be hungry!" His grandmother smiled and nodded. "But remember, you still have to get along well with your teammates, Obito!"

"That annoying guy just keeps making fun of me. Who's his teammate!" Obito angrily shoveled a spoonful of rice into his mouth, then added with a cheerful grin, "Oh, by the way, Grandma, I met a strange guy today. He actually wanted to recruit one of Uchiha's geniuses as his…"

Before he could finish speaking...

Knock, knock.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Both his grandmother and Obito froze, unsure who could be visiting so late. They exchanged glances.

"Is it one of Obito's friends?" 

"No way! Could it be…" Obito suddenly grew excited. "Could it be Rin coming to see me? She came so late because she missed me!"

He eagerly dashed over to open the door.

Standing there was a middle-aged man wearing the Uchiha clan's fan symbol. Was something going on with the clan? Obito was startled and then disappointed. "Is there something wrong?"

"Uchiha Obito's house?" The middle-aged man frowned and looked seriously at Obito. "Is your grandmother home?"

"What do you want with my grandmother?" Obito frowned in response. Having someone from the clan suddenly come looking for his grandmother without any reason felt strange, no matter how he looked at it.

At that moment, Grandma walked over, looking at the family ninja at the door with confusion. "Are you looking for me? What do you want to talk to me about, Ninja-sama?"

"Good news." The middle-aged ninja glanced at Grandma, confirming she was the one he was looking for, and then took out a bag of rice, a bag of vegetables, and a piece of meat. "Take these! They're yours!"

"???" Both Grandma and Obito were bewildered, staring at the rice, vegetables, and meat handed to them out of nowhere. "Ninja-sama, there must be some mistake! These aren't ours! We didn't buy them!"

"They're yours! This is a gift from the clan leader, specifically given to elderly widows in the clan!" The ninja explained impatiently.

"Also, tomorrow morning at ten, make sure to wake up and gather in the clan square. We'll be taking you for health check-ups. In the afternoon, there will be people guiding you through some exercises like badminton, singing, and dancing. I don't know the specifics, so don't ask me! Ask the people in charge tomorrow. That's it. Now just sign here."

"???"

"Hurry up! I still have a lot of people to notify. Honestly, it's unbelievable that the clan leader asked us to do this in the middle of the night!"

Startled by the ninja's sharp tone, Grandma quickly signed her name before she could even fully process what had happened, and the ninja immediately left. It was clear he was in a rush.

"Grand... Grandma?" Obito blinked, looking at the rice and meat on the ground. "What's going on?"

"Grandma doesn't know either." She finally came to her senses and smiled helplessly. "I heard it's something the clan leader is giving to the elderly."

"So what should we do now?"

"Just take it inside! Obito, always remember we've been taken care of by others for a long time. So, when there's a chance, Obito, you should help others too, alright?"

"I know it!" Obito nodded firmly.

...

The next day, a large group of elderly Uchiha, led by ninjas, began heading to their health check-ups. To ensure the thoroughness of the check-ups, Uchiha Yuto even had Suzune go to the Hokage Building to request several medical ninjas to assist.

At first, the Hokage was hesitant, especially since medical ninjas were in short supply during wartime. But when he heard it would only be for a day and that there would be high compensation, he assigned three ninjas to help.

Of course, the strongest medical ninja stationed at the rear of the battlefield—Tsunade—had not returned. Otherwise, he would have considered asking her to help too.

Early that morning, Uchiha Obito, after sending his grandma off, saw the large group of elderly Uchiha and felt at ease. It seemed the clan leader truly cared for the elderly.

As expected, Clan Leader Fugaku really was a good person!

Being a member of the Uchiha Clan filled Uchiha Obito with deep pride once again. Even as he walked, he felt like his steps were lighter, and he proudly showed off the Uchiha clan emblem on his back.

That is until he arrived at the meeting spot for his squad.

"You look disgusting! And you're late again!" 

The annoying voice immediately reached his ears!

"Mind your own business!" Uchiha Obito glared at Kakashi. "You're the disgusting one!"

Just then, a soft voice came from the side. "Did something good happen, Obito?"

"Mm-hmm, it's something about the clan!" Obito's expression changed instantly, and he smiled. "I'll tell you more about it later, Rin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato-sensei appeared before them with a gentle smile. "Alright, alright! You all passed my test yesterday. Today, we're going to start our mission!"

"Whatever the mission is, bring it on! I, the great Obito, will complete it perfectly, whether it's A-rank or S-rank!" Obito shouted immediately.

"Idiot!" Kakashi gave him a sidelong glance and looked at Minato-sensei. "It's probably a D-rank mission, right? Like catching a cat or cleaning up trash?"

"Damn it! Why is it a D-rank mission? That's not fitting for the great me!"

"…" Kakashi expressionlessly rolled his eyes at Obito. He was the one who was truly pitiful. Even though he'd been active on the battlefield, now he had to come back and perform these boring D-rank missions alongside this idiot.

"Idiot!" 

"Hey, hey! Kakashi! Who are you calling an idiot?"

"Alright, calm down, everyone," Minato laughed. "Just like Kakashi said, it is indeed a D-rank mission."

"But don't worry; the reward is pretty good!" 

"So, Sensei…" Rin looked curiously at Minato. "What kind of mission is it?"

"You all know about that famous bubble tea shop at the village entrance, right?"
