What the hell is making games in the Ninja World?.

Chapter 272: Hatake Sakumo: Kakashi, you are addicted to games. As a father, I will personally...

Hatake Sakumo finally met his son Hatake Kakashi.

At the Konoha Game Hall headquarters.

After Kakashi and his friends completed their ninja mission, they rushed forward eagerly.

That posture, if placed on Earth, would give countless people a strong sense of déjà vu, because it was similar to the students who used to go to the game hall after school, then to the Internet cafe after school, and then to the mobile phone store or even the mobile Internet cafe after school.

When Hatake Sakumo saw this, he couldn't help but frown.

Although he didn't think that playing games would ruin his life, the sight of his son and his friends rushing straight to the game hall made the old father instinctively feel unhappy.

This unhappy feeling even diluted the anxiety of seeing his son again.

Then, the silent Hatake Sakumo walked into the game hall, and a warm waiter immediately came up to him and greeted Hatake Sakumo with a smile.

This enthusiastic service spirit directly silenced Hatake Sakumo, who even felt a little uncomfortable.

It's not that I haven't seen people being well served before, but those were usually servants of aristocratic families or in brothels, and those environments were completely different from what I'm doing now.

However, Hatake Sakumo did not say anything. After thinking about it, he took out a black card. This was the card that Uchiha Kei gave to Hatake Sakumo before Hatake Sakumo left, telling the other party that after taking out this black card in the store under the name of Konoha Game Chamber of Commerce, he would enjoy the highest treatment.

Because this is the Black Gold Membership Card system that Konoha Gaming Chamber of Commerce launched just a month ago.

When the waiter saw the black gold membership card, he was stunned. Then his expression changed and he bowed respectfully to Hatake Sakumo, expressing his offense. He would ask the manager to come and entertain Hatake Sakumo.

However, he was stopped by Hatake Sakumo, who expressed his desire to keep a low profile.

The waiter said he understood, and immediately perked up his energy to continue entertaining Hatake Sakumo, leading him into the store.

Then, Hatake Sakumo saw a scene that was like the cyberpunk version of the ninja world. In the seats belonging to the guests, people were either lying down or leaning back in their seats, and all of them had their eyes closed as if they were asleep.

However, the chakra flow of the illusion game never stopped. Under the influence of the illusion game scroll, each consciousness entered the illusion world.

In addition to the public play area in the hall, there are also partitions and even private rooms. The partitions are separated by wooden boards, allowing players to enjoy a certain degree of independent space. The environment is based on Internet cafes in Japan on Earth.

As for the private room, it is a separate room with complete facilities. You can play alone or with a group of people. Except for the higher price, everything else is much better than outside. It is a truly independent area for distinguished guests.

In addition, there are large and small projections in many places in the game hall, which play live game scenes of certain players and also play some game advertisements in a loop. For the ninja world, it is full of cyberpunk dislocation.

In addition, the game hall is divided into a rest area and a dining area, and even provides sleeping accommodation services, ensuring that as long as customers have money, they can easily stay in the game hall without having to go back.

In fact, there are many people in the game hall who really treat it as their home, and it is filled with the feeling in Uchiha Kai's memories.

However, the game halls of the Konoha Game Chamber of Commerce usually have a very good environment and good service, which is not comparable to some black Internet cafes. This not only refers to the black Internet cafes on Earth, but also to the "black Internet cafes" in the ninja world. The waiter was very proud when introducing the game hall, and at the end he did not forget to complain about the poor service of the black game halls in the ninja world.

Because some unscrupulous businessmen and nobles have already opened "black game halls" in the ninja world.

Most of these "black game halls" are located in remote areas that the Konoha Game Chamber of Commerce cannot take care of, or in areas that are prohibited from entry by other countries.

Since there are many exports of illusion games and smuggling is also very serious, and many games are stand-alone and do not even require multiple players to play online, the technical support provided by the Konoha Game Chamber of Commerce, such as multiplayer and even networking, are non-essential services.

As a result, merchants and nobles in those places took advantage of the classic collusion between officials and businessmen, set up their own game halls, and made profits by earning money from the locals.

Furthermore, the prices varied, depending on the region, and were usually more expensive than regular game halls - after all, the illusion games that Konoha exported were not cheap, and if the prices were not high, no money would be made.

The Konoha Game Chamber of Commerce actually knew about these things. After all, a little investigation would reveal the truth, but they did not care. This was Uchiha Kai's intention.

"Although it is a black game hall and non-compliant, our power cannot be extended to it for the time being. It is difficult to manage it even if we want to. It is better to leave it alone. It can also help us expand the market and cultivate users."

"In this way, when our power can be extended to those places in the future, we can directly connect to a good market, and with a little improvement, we can use it directly."

“It doesn’t matter even if we can’t ultimately extend our influence to those places, because the illusion games used by those places are still produced by us, and we still have a share of the profits.”

The above are Uchiha Kai's original words, which made those people agree deeply. They all praised Lord Qi for his foresight, business acumen, and long-term vision, which no one else could compare to.

Uchiha Kai was quite calm about this and said that this was just what the people on Earth had left over. Why did Microsoft allow pirated copies of Windows to spread in China?

The answer is very simple, it is to seize the market - many people probably don’t know that in the early 2000s, China actually developed its own operating system and tried it in places like Internet cafes, but it was eventually killed by Windows due to stability issues.

What was used at that time was a pirated version of Windows.

This is Uchiha Kai's current attitude towards black game halls. Allowing them to develop cannot be said to be without disadvantages, but the benefits are obvious.

Moreover, even if it is a black game hall, the system still counts the players inside as the statistical number of Uchiha Qi game players, but it does not count the sales.

For Uchiha Kai, who now relies on the high prices of illusion games and has no shortage of sales to complete the task, he doesn't need to care about this little bit of money.

Of course, the waiters didn't know about these things, and even though they were complaining about the shamelessness of those black game halls, they couldn't conceal the pride and pride in their expressions.

For this waiter who used to be just an ordinary person in Konoha, his current job is decent and makes him feel full of honor. The classic corporate culture has occupied his entire being.

Hatake Sakumo just listened and didn't make any comments. After all, he had just been resurrected. Although he had learned a lot of things, he also had more questions and confusions.

This calm and collected Konoha White Fang would not comment on things he is not familiar with, even if he is familiar with certain things. He is a classic calm and cautious person.

For such a Hatake Sakumo, now, the new world is a new field, and he will only use his heart to understand the new world. Moreover, compared with these business matters, Hatake Sakumo cares more about another thing, that is...

"Just now I saw three people from Minato's team come to the game room, but I didn't see them in the lobby, so are the three of them in the box? Or in the cubicle?"

Hatake Sakumo spoke up, and since he didn't see Kakashi and his friends in the hall, he asked directly.

Faced with this question, the waiter was stunned, and then looked at Hatake Sakumo in surprise.

Because the three members of Minato's team are already regular visitors here, and they are also three people with privileges. After all, who says that they are disciples of Minato Namikaze?

Minato Namikaze has privileges in the Konoha Game Chamber of Commerce, not because he is now the de facto assistant to the Hokage, but because he is a close friend of Lord Kai.

Because of this relationship, Uchiha Kai was also very caring towards the three little ones in Minato's team, and gave them considerable privileges in the game hall - at least in the eyes of others, Uchiha Kai did give the three little ones privileges for this reason.

So, now that Hatake Sakumo suddenly raised such a question, the waiter became concerned and subconsciously became suspicious.

I even suspected that the black card in Hatake Sakumo's hand was fake.

After all, there is never a shortage of spies in the ninja world.

What kind of person is Hatake Sakumo? Naturally, he was the first to sense the waiter's mood change.

This made Hatake Sakumo feel a little surprised. After all, in his opinion, his own son and his friends were just ordinary graduates of the ninja school and were not worthy of special attention at all. How could they arouse suspicion by just asking a question?

Suddenly, Hatake Sakumo became curious.

However, this Konoha White Fang did not make trouble, but directly handed the black card to the waiter: "This is the card that Lord Qi gave me. You can take it for verification. Lord Qi said that there is a special anti-counterfeiting design inside. If it is fake, you can tell it with a check."

Upon hearing that the mysterious man in front of him actually got the black card directly from Lord Qi, the waiter's expression changed and became more respectful.

However, out of professional ethics, he did not believe it immediately. Instead, he respectfully took the black card, said sorry, and then took it for verification.

This kind of thing must be treated with the most cautious attitude!
Hatake Sakumo had no objection to this. Instead, he secretly admired this kind of rigor and seriousness. Only in this way can we prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to the greatest extent.

The Konoha Gaming Chamber of Commerce is really great, worthy of being created by Lord Qi.

Thinking this in his mind, Hatake Sakumo also came to the rest area and waited.

Soon, the waiter came back, and with him came another person who was better dressed and had a more outstanding temperament. That person had blonde hair and was a member of the Yamanaka clan. There was a name tag on his chest with his name written on it, which started with "Yamaka".

When the manager of the Yamanaka clan arrived, he respectfully returned the black card with both hands and apologized again for the poor service.

Then, since this was a public place with many people around, he invited Hatake Sakumo to go directly to the manager's office for a detailed discussion.

Hatake Sakumo did not refuse. After saying "thank you for your hard work", he followed them.

After entering the manager's office, Manager Yamanaka asked the waiter to go ahead and poured tea for Hatake Sakumo. He then said, "Sir, we have verified your black card. It is indeed genuine and belongs to Master Qi. So, may I ask who you are to Master Qi?"

"I'm sorry to delve into this. The main reason is that the meaning of this card is really important and we must find it out. In addition, the three juniors of Minato's class were specifically chosen by Master Qi to be our VIP customers. We have an obligation to ensure the privacy of these three guests."

His words were cautious and respectful, but he also displayed his principles and professionalism. He did not completely kowtow to Hatake Sakumo just because of Hatake Sakumo's black card.

In this regard, Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but look up to the Yamanaka manager in front of him, secretly admiring his principles and persistence. Although he had never met him before, judging from his ambition and attitude, if he had outstanding ninja talent, he must be an excellent Yamanaka ninja. It would be a waste of his talent for him to be a mere store manager here.

However, Hatake Sakumo also knows that the times nowadays are completely different from the past, and his cognition is very "old-fashioned", so he won't say anything, but just sigh in his heart.

As for the words on the surface, Hatake Sakumo also told the other party with a simple and direct answer.

"I am Master Qi's shadow warrior. My current appearance is a special transformation disguise. It is not my true appearance."

Simple and direct words, in a sense, reveal one's own situation.

Manager Yamanaka nodded in understanding. He was not surprised at all that Uchiha Kai had a Kagemusha. Rather, it would be strange if he didn't have a Kagemusha given his status and position.

The Uchiha clan directly arranged a team of Uchiha jonin with three magatama to provide round-the-clock protection. This is a treatment that neither the Uchiha clan leader nor the Hokage has ever received.

At that moment, Manager Yamanaka did not ask any more questions. He directly told Hatake, Sakumo and Kakashi that they were playing games in a special VIP customer box and asked if they needed to be called over.

In response to this, Hatake Sakumo just thought about it and shook his head, saying that he would go and see the three of them and meet them, and would talk about it after they left the game hall.

Upon hearing this, Manager Yamanaka immediately arranged for Hatake Sakumo to rest in a VIP lounge and asked the other party if he wanted to play an illusion game, but Hatake Sakumo simply shook his head and refused.

It’s not that he is not interested in illusion games. In fact, this Konoha White Fang is also very curious.

However, Hatake Sakumo knew that although he looked human, he was actually a "dead person". Who knew if there would be any problems when playing this illusion game with living people?

So, just in case, not playing is the best option.

So, Hatake Sakumo began to wait, and this wait lasted until the evening, when this Konoha White Fang had a blank expression on his face, and his whole body exuded the kind of anger that all parents have accumulated towards their own good-for-nothing children.

As a result, when Kakashi and his friends went back, Hatake Sakumo directly stopped the three of them and spoke.

"Hatake Kakashi, now, follow me to the survival training ground outside Konoha!"
