Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 211 Is the difference really that big?

Ultimately, Tsunade sent the Hyuga brothers and Fugaku to teach at the Ninja Academy.

The main reason is that Tsunade couldn't just hand over the mission of Konoha to someone from another world.

Since they couldn't be given a mission, they could only keep them in the village.

But here's the problem...

Leaving aside what Fugaku said...

When you Hyuga brothers introduced yourselves...

"We have extensive experience in amusement park construction, and are skilled in building facilities such as roller coasters, pirate ships, and Ferris wheels. We also have ten years of experience in childcare. If your village has such facilities, we can provide assistance."

Tsunade was completely dumbfounded.

Do you two want to hear what you're saying?

Amusement park... I know what that is, but why does Konoha need an amusement park?

Parenting experience... ten years...

How old are you this year? Are you twenty? How do you have ten years of experience?

and……

Why parenting?!

Tsunade actually knew she shouldn't have asked.

But she couldn't help it. Mainly, looking at the two Byakugan in front of her, she simply couldn't imagine the Hyuga brothers holding a child in their arms...

So she still asked, "Can I ask... about parenting experience... what's going on?"

Hyuga Hizashi calmly replied, "Naturally, I mean the kindergarten. Our Hyuga clan's kindergarten is the most professional, has the most abundant teaching staff, and is the most strictly managed kindergarten in the entire Hidden Leaf Village."

Tsunade: "..."

Am I still sleepy today?

In the end, Tsunade could only wave her hand and let the three of them go to teach at the Ninja Academy.

Then, he secretly had his secret agents follow him.

This is a basic operation. When the Yamato team from their world went to Yua's place, didn't Yua also send his ANBU to follow them?

To put it bluntly, whether the secret service is discovered or not is a matter of ability.

If you don't send any secret agents, then it's a matter of attitude.

Neither the Hyuga brothers nor Fugaku Uchiha cared that they were being monitored.

They had already left the Hokage Building.

Hizashi sighed, "All I can say is that, apart from the Hokage Building, we're familiar with this village..."

Fugaku nodded in agreement: "It feels like I've gone back to my childhood, when most places in the village were like this."

Hiashi: "Who says otherwise? Sigh..."

As Fugaku and his two brothers walked along the road, he asked, "Is the internal division within your family still very serious?"

Hizashi remained silent, but Hiashi nodded: "Like your family, the branch family is unwilling to be controlled by the main family anymore, but the mark of the caged bird makes them powerless to resist."

Fugaku sighed, "Trying to control a person's entire life with just a mark, the Hyuga clan really is..."

Hiashi glanced at Fugaku and sneered, "Your Uchiha clan isn't much better. I know that most of the people in the clan's territory have left."

Fugaku didn't respond, but instead looked at the two of them and said, "Then it seems that the three of us have the same goal."

Hiashi and Hizashi exchanged a glance, then nodded simultaneously.

The three of them...

Naturally, they wanted to find a way to get their family out of their current predicament.

Putting everything else aside, if no changes are made, then being sliced ​​into pieces by the current Hokage, Yua, will be the end of everything.

As I said before, no one who becomes the clan leader in Konoha is a fool.

Oh, except for Danzo.

They were aware of the problem their clan faced: unequal distribution of resources had led many clansmen to leave their clan's territory and become "Konoha villagers" in the inner city of Konoha instead of their "clan members."

These two are very different.

Of course, this applies to the patriarchs of these families.

But it didn't matter to these clansmen and villagers of Konoha.

Anyway, Konoha's inner city is huge, with such tall buildings, and not even half of it is occupied yet, so what's the rush?

And these are things that Youya started doing slowly twenty years ago.

It's just the same as before.

Back then, each ninja clan received one billion taels of silver annually. Now, some clans receive two to three billion taels, while others receive several hundred million. With so much money, they simply cannot compete with Yua's slow, insidious tactics.

If you resist, and Youya stops paying, your family will revolt that very day, so what future can you talk about?

It's worth mentioning that families with fewer members, such as the Mountain Clan and the Moonlight Clan, do not experience this negative effect.

Since the family only has a few members, no more than a hundred people in total, and everyone is related to them, they simply divide the spoils equally. This eliminates the problem of other families where "I am close to you, so why should I get the same amount as you?"

You say you're my eighth aunt, but she's still my second aunt. Are you saying that because you're my second aunt, you're closer to me than her eighth aunt?

The gossip and idle chatter of others can be enough to condemn such a person.

Moreover, it's not without its benefits, so these smaller families haven't encountered any problems until now.

However, it is foreseeable that when another generation comes, their numbers will increase and their minds will become more complicated, leading to conflicts and a repeat of the current plight of these large families.

It can be said that Youya's move of cutting off the source of the problem is a sustainable, slow and gradual process of erosion.

If there are too many people, they will be exploited, unless you deliberately control the number of people.

Hmm... That's how the Nara clan operates. Nara Shikaya only had one child, and it's obvious that his son, Nara Shikaku, will only have one more child, Shikamaru.

You've found a flaw in the family's sustainable development strategy.

Yes, as long as the family population size doesn't change much in one generation, there won't be much of an impact.

Unfortunately, other families don't think that way.

Some people may have noticed, but it's impossible for anyone to control the lower half of their family members' desires; no one can.

Furthermore, the subsidy policy for second and third children in Youya does not differentiate between families or villagers; as long as a child is born, money is given.

Therefore, some people who don't understand this relationship even think that having more children is a win.

Some insightful people could only sigh helplessly at this.

After all, these are things that can't be discussed openly.

Besides... Yu Ya was able to do this because he was capable. Have you ever seen anyone who started planning twenty years ago?

And to be honest, this kind of move... looks a lot like Tobirama Senju's plan. After all, although Tobirama Senju hated every member of the Uchiha clan equally, it's impossible that he wasn't wary of the other clans in Konoha.

If Tobirama Senju truly wasn't on guard, then why did he accept Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, and others as his disciples...?

So even though Tobirama Senju is now dead, many members of the clan believe that Tobirama Senju was behind this plan to wipe out the family.

As for Yahoo!

Hmm... Impossible, absolutely impossible.

"Uncle! Uncle!"

As Fugaku, Hiashi, and Hizashi walked out of the Hokage's office building, they heard Naruto's voice calling out to them.

Hiashi looked at Fugaku, who smiled and said to Hiashi, "I've met this kid before; he's quite a loud and boisterous child."

Then Hiashi saw Naruto, who was already fourteen or fifteen years old, run in.

Hiashi was speechless. Fugaku is only in his early twenties, around twenty-two years old. How is he that much older?

But never mind, he's a brother who came from another world with me, so I shouldn't undermine him.

Fugaku leaned closer, and Naruto said happily to Fugaku, "Uncle, let me treat you to Ichiraku Ramen here!"

Fugaku nodded with a smile.

This time, the roles were reversed, and Fugaku arrived in Konoha without warning, needing Naruto's help.

Of course, Naruto is also very willing to help others.

Fugaku looked at Hiashi and Hizashi: "How about it, want to go grab something to eat first?"

Hiashi and Hizashi exchanged a glance, shrugged, and nodded.

Since they had nothing else to do, they decided to put the situation in the village aside for now and investigate it later. They wanted to go get some food first, as they were indeed hungry.

Meanwhile, at Ichiraku Ramen, Fugaku watched speechlessly as Naruto rapidly stuffed ramen into his mouth. Was he treating me or did he just want to eat it himself?!

He chuckled and shook his head. Of course, Fugaku wouldn't have any prejudice against children.

But when he thought about the problems his family was facing, he had no other thoughts.

Although he had made a foolish mistake by trying to cause trouble with Danzo, Fugaku had managed to absorb the essence of all the books he had read during his months in prison.

Although he didn't fully understand everything, Fugaku Uchiha was indeed like a completely different person after being released from prison.

To put it simply, the transformation was a success.

Fugaku's impatience used to be quite obvious.

He knew how serious the internal problems were within the Uchiha clan, and he also knew that the Uchiha clan's character destined them to be unable to pursue business or integrate into the village.

If Yuya cuts the share of the water plant and power plant profits, the Uchiha clan will be left to live off their past achievements.

He used to be extremely anxious about this situation.

However, during his months in prison, he came to understand some things.

That is, he himself is impatient, and others may be influenced by him to become even more impatient.

It's difficult to change the Uchiha clan, but starting with oneself, it should be possible to change some people's views.

Let's start with ourselves, start with small things, and slowly pull the Uchiha clan out of this deep pit.

That's what he wanted to do.

The reason he voluntarily applied to come to this world was undoubtedly to avoid trouble.

After all, he really couldn't understand what they had done to deserve the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.

It couldn't possibly be a rebellion, could it? That would be too stupid.

Hiashi and Hizashi were also discussing something at the ramen stand, naturally referring to the two Hyuga clan ninjas who had come to greet them that day.

Naruto was eager to introduce the two, but was interrupted.

Because a figure suddenly barged into the noodle stall.

It is precisely old age that comes with it, and the lustful immortal.

"Yo, Naruto, long time no see~"

"Perverted sage!" Naruto's eyes lit up immediately.

Strictly speaking, the Perverted Sage didn't actually teach Naruto for very long, but for Naruto, the time he spent with the Perverted Sage was equivalent to the sum of all the time before.

The saying goes, "The master leads you through the door, but the practice depends on yourself."

The perverted sage was undoubtedly the most important teacher who led Naruto into the world of ninja.

The perverted sage smiled slightly at Naruto: "You go back first. I'll take care of these guests from another world."

Hiashi, Hizashi, and Fugaku all turned their gazes toward Jiraiya, their brows furrowing simultaneously.

This old man...

It actually gave them a very dangerous feeling...

In fact, they could say that even the Hokage Tsunade they had seen in the Hokage's office before hadn't given them this feeling.

However, it's also possible that Tsunade in this world is also a doctor, and doesn't place too much emphasis on personal combat strength.

And the previous casual conversation did indeed reveal that Tsunade was the best doctor in Konoha.

Naruto pouted: "Huh? But I finally managed to get together with those older guys..."

The lecherous immortal waved his hand: "Go back. You must value this intelligence highly. Go back and prepare. You and I need to get ready to leave the village."

Naruto looked at the perverted sage with a puzzled expression, not quite understanding what was going on.

The perverted sage simply smiled and said, "Orochimaru's stronghold has been found."

"!"

Naruto was immediately shocked. He then decisively said goodbye to Hizashi, Hiashi, and Fugaku, and ran out. A moment later, he ran back, took out his frog wallet, counted out a few bills and coins, and shouted to the shopkeeper, "Boss, I'll leave the money here! Thank you for your hospitality!"

The middle-aged man chuckled and replied, "Slow down! Don't fall!"

After Naruto left, Fugaku looked at the perverted sage: "Did you send this child away because you have something to discuss with us?"

The lecherous sage showed some interest. To be honest, this Fugaku felt very unfamiliar to him. Although the Fugaku from both worlds looked exactly the same, their personalities were completely different.

At least the Fugaku of his world wouldn't ask this question; even if he had such a question, he would only keep it to himself and not say it aloud.

but……

"Ah, that's true. I've seen the relevant information about your other world, so I'd like to ask you, or you can take this as a formal question from the perspective of the two villages."

"Then may I ask, how did the villages in your world develop into what they are?"

The lecherous immortal looked at the three people in front of him, and seeing them looking at each other blankly, he smiled and asked a more specific question:

"Or...may I ask, in your world, what kind of relationship exists between the village and the Sarutobi clan?"

A thought flashed through Fugaku's mind, and he understood. This was probably the question that Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage of this world, truly wanted to ask...

So, it seems there will always be friction between villages and ninja clans, no matter which world you're in.

Thinking this, Fugaku looked at Jiraiya and said, "Regarding this question... we can indeed tell you about the situation in our world."

But... what information are you prepared to offer in exchange for this information?

Fugaku stared intently at the other person.

The lecherous sage was not surprised by Fugaku's reaction.

He certainly knew what the other party wanted.

Without a doubt, the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, would not easily reveal the truth about the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.

Unless the specific benefits are determined.

So the perverted sage looked at Fugaku and shook his head: "You should know that these two pieces of information are not equal. What did the Hokage of your world do to the Sarutobi clan that caused the two sides to not only coexist harmoniously but also seem to get along well? These things should be clear after investigation, even through their overt interactions."

But what you want... is top secret information here.

It's not exactly top secret, since the culprit who wiped out the Uchiha clan is still out there, so it's impossible to guarantee that the truth about the Uchiha clan's extermination won't be leaked. Naturally, this information can't be top secret.

However, when it comes to raising prices, the price will definitely be raised higher.

After thinking for a long time, Fugaku Uchiha finally agreed.

After all, it was indeed as the lustful immortal had said.

What did Yua do to the Sarutobi clan?

It's nothing more than using profit as bait, making the Sarutobi clan reluctant to turn against Yua because they couldn't bear to part with the enormous benefits, and then using the unequal distribution of profits within the clan to divide and conquer them...

These operations could be uncovered with a little digging, but since ordinary villagers in Konoha Village usually have to go to work, no one has time to investigate how many kindergartens, elementary schools, and junior high schools Hiruzen Sarutobi owns, or how much money he can earn annually from his shares in hospitals and banks.

These are actually all semi-public information.

After all, the figures are usually announced at the annual year-end meeting.

That makes it impossible to hide.

Given this so-called exchange internship program, it's clear that it's not something Youya could just do on a whim.

Everyone knows that Yuya is desperately short of people. The reason why a master of shadow clones like Naruto can enter the lab to wash test tubes is because he didn't have Yuya's permission.

It's not that Naruto's lab is that important, it's just that it would be fine for ordinary Konoha villagers, but Naruto is from another world!

Even with such a background, Youya was still allowed in, which shows just how desperate the manpower shortage was.

Fugaku Uchiha understood that Yua definitely had a next move in mind, and these people in this world were probably already on Yua's list of people to poach.

Since that's the case, they'll go there sooner or later; the Sarutobi family's affairs can't be kept secret any longer.

It would be better to take it out now and exchange it for some intelligence.

Every little bit helps.

Thus, the perverted sage and Uchiha Fugaku made a deal.

The lecherous sage was satisfied with getting what he wanted. He told the three of them to remember to attend ninja school the next day before leaving.

That evening, Fugaku, who was staying at the accommodations arranged by Konoha Village, received what he wanted.

However, only a part of it details the internal turmoil within the Uchiha clan after the First Shinobi World War, and then it talks about how the village isolated the Uchiha clan, how the Uchiha clan didn't want to play along with the village, and how the Hokage wanted to suppress the Uchiha clan's security forces because Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to consolidate all power.

The ultimate result of extreme pressure was... bang.

The emotions of most of the Uchiha clan were ignited.

Fugaku Uchiha's face darkened...

The annihilation of the Uchiha clan in this world is actually...

Thinking of rebelling?

Fugaku Uchiha didn't want to read the second half of the story anymore; what was there to see?

Let alone whether Fugaku in this world has his Mangekyou Sharingan.

He's basically a clone of a small squad...

They simply couldn't fight against the entire Hidden Leaf Village!

Even if the Uchiha clan is strong in combat, they and Konoha will both suffer heavy losses.

As for the outcome of a lose-lose situation...

Please watch the video from Kirigakure...

In their world, Kirigakure is now considered a prime example of what not to do.

The village's internal strife eventually escalated into a civil war. After the war ended, the village was completely wiped out, returning to the state it had been twenty years ago.

Fugaku Uchiha didn't even need to read the later parts to know that the Konoha higher-ups must have sensed something was wrong, and in the end, these people were assassinated.

Fugaku Uchiha shook his head, having lost all interest in the Uchiha clan of this world.

He initially thought there were many reasons for this.

The result was completely unexpected...

To put it bluntly, no matter how much the Uchiha clan acts up, Konoha can't go too far.

9. The only issue is the bottom line.

Without a doubt, the Uchiha clan in this world crossed the line set by the Hokage.

Of course, if you look at this separately, from the perspective of the Uchiha, they are oppressed and exploited, and they can't even resist.

The Uchiha clan being forced into rebellion could never be their fault.

From the Hokage's perspective, regardless of your reasons, if you want an internal war, he will definitely punish you without hesitation. That's not wrong. Perhaps he took a series of measures before that led to this situation. In that case, we can only say that the Hokage was wrong from the beginning and could only continue down the wrong path.

If you really have the ability...

Fugaku Uchiha suddenly remembered the current internal situation of the Uchiha clan he led...

Those who remained in the clan's territory and those who left the clan's territory utterly loathed each other...

Although it gave him a huge headache, but...

This is an internal problem within their Uchiha clan... it has absolutely nothing to do with the village...

There's no way they could ever fall to the level of the Uchiha in this world.

Fugaku Uchiha became even more withdrawn, because he discovered a possible truth...

Yuya has been consistently weakening and dividing these ninja clans...

It might really be about saving these families...

Otherwise, what if they really grow to the point where they can threaten the village...

Fugaku Uchiha probably thinks someone might actually dare to make a move in the shadows...

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, stared at the handwritten information that the Perverted Sage had obtained from Fugaku and fell into a state of despair...

The Sarutobi family from another world...

Making that much money in a year? Doesn't the Hokage in your area care about this?

That much money could support so many ninjas! Aren't you afraid something might happen?!

Tsunade strongly suspected that the village in the other world was already on the verge of destruction.

After all, the tens digit on it made her heart pound.

The next day, after indirectly learning from Fugaku that the Sarutobi clan's annual income was only one percent of Konoha's annual revenue, Tsunade became even more withdrawn.

Both are Hokage, both are from Konoha Village...

Why is there such a huge difference?!
