Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 356 Is reputation more important or profit?

What Yuya himself probably didn't expect was that his original plan was to thoroughly slash the ninja clans of Konoha Village.

After all, strictly speaking, these guys haven't really done anything to go against Youya in recent years.

It could even be said that many of the Konoha ninja clans, led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the head of the Sarutobi clan, followed the lead of Yuyama.

What does it mean to follow someone's lead?

That means they do whatever Youya tells them to do.

You Ya's thinking is that of a normal person.

This time, he did not want to suppress the ninja clans of Konoha.

He wanted to get to the bottom of it.

You guys have been taking our money for so many years, but you're still the same as you were ten years ago. How can that not make me angry?

Therefore, this time, Youya decided not to give these people any face and to go straight for them, forcibly taking another part of their family territory.

Simply put, besides the place we've provided for you to live, give me back all the other places.

For example, the Uchiha clan.

Yuya abandoned his idea of ​​taking half of the Uchiha clan's territory this time.

Taking only half is too stingy!

I don't want others to see this and think I only dared to take half!

I'm going to get at least three-quarters of it this time!

A quarter of the space should be reserved for the Uchiha clan members to live in and for the power plant; the water plant arrangements should be sufficient.

As for other families, if they have extra land for their own facilities, that land will also be requisitioned.

For example, Sarutobi, Hyuga, and Shimura.

However, Shimura was unwilling, which was within Yua's expectations.

However, Yua was quite surprised that Sarutobi didn't object.

Your Sarutobi clan wasn't always this obedient.

What You Ya didn't know was that he was thinking about these family patriarchs using the mindset of a normal person.

But people like Hiruzen Sarutobi and Hiashi Hyuga are different.

Oh, it's not that they aren't normal people.

Rather, they had seen another world before.

Knowing what the consequences would have been if Hiruzen Sarutobi had taken over instead of Yua, and what Konoha would be like now.

If you really want to know whether Hiruzen Sarutobi had the intention to compete against Yua back then, even Hiruzen Sarutobi himself would have to admit that he definitely did.

After all, who doesn't have thoughts like Shimura Danzo's?

It's just that Danzo Shimura really went against Yua.

In fact, more than a decade ago, when Hiruzen Sarutobi was chatting with Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane—(if Hiruzen Sarutobi had not risen to power, the three of them would not have had any fundamental conflict and could therefore have been friends)—Hiruzen Sarutobi had imagined what Konoha would be like if he had risen to power.

However, upon closer reflection, it turned out that Youya had spent a considerable amount of money to persuade them to abandon the idea.

Simply put, Yuya gave them too much money back then (at least it was a lot at the time, although it's not enough now), making them too ashamed to take Yuya's money while competing with him for a spot.

They are not as shameless as Danzo Shimura.

After failing to seize the position, that bastard Danzo Shimura still had the nerve to ask Yua for the share of money that originally belonged to the Shimura clan.

This kind of shamelessness is something that Hiruzen Sarutobi and his ilk could never do.

After going to that other world, I asked my counterpart in that world, and I found out exactly what happened.

Of course, Shimura Danzo didn't go with him at that time, so he didn't know.

Knowing what happened in that other world, Danzo Shimura was naturally even more despised by them.

They had completely given up on the idea of ​​taking over.

After all, I didn't do a very good job.

The reason why Youya cooperated so well this time, asking them for land and people, was indeed related to this.

In their view, since Yuya is developing Konoha so well, they would feel guilty if they didn't cooperate.

Moreover, in all these years, when has Yuya ever asked them for land back without receiving compensation?

So they very cooperatively gave it all to Yuya.

This surprised Youya, but she didn't think much of it.

After all, there's no need to think about these things at a time like this; he just needs to accept the land and people that these people bring.

As for returning it...

That's impossible.

Youya has already said he's going to go all out this time, so what reason is there to go back?

However, Yuya was right about one thing this time.

He couldn't offer these families any substantial benefits, much less give them money directly like before, let alone a large sum of money.

But Youya can indeed give them a huge reputation.

What are you planning to do, Youya?

Very simple.

Regarding the incident with Kumogakure going to the moon, Yua said he'd go there first, and now that's settled. [Of course, we need to be clear: we all know what the moon in Naruto is really like—it's a Sage Mode-level Chibaku Tensei, not the moon we're talking about. It's just a name.]

After several years of research, the research institute has actually found a way to get to the moon.

After all, Naruto anime showed how cannons could be used to blast the moon, so there's no reason why current propulsion wouldn't be enough.

Therefore, Yua decided to give the fame of being the first to set foot on the moon to the families who were willing to cooperate with him.

Logically speaking, the reputation of being the first one shouldn't be too memorable, right?

But what if there are people on the moon?

Yes, Yua set his sights on the Otsutsuki clan.

Regardless of whether the Otsutsuki on the moon and the Otsutsuki in space are the same thing, just tell me if there are people on those places.

The moon without people and the moon with people are definitely not in the same league.

If no one's around, it might cause a stir, and then the matter will pass.

But where are the people?!

That would be a momentous event that would directly enlighten everyone in the entire ninja world!

It is the first stop in the great development of the universe!

This is a matter of great importance concerning all of humanity!

Yuya knew this, and naturally also knew how much fame it would bring if he brought these ninja clans along.

Of course, You Ya did consider keeping this fame for himself, so that future history books would record that he single-handedly developed the aviation industry and pioneered space exploration...

But is it necessary?

If this entry is added to future history books, future generations will respect and admire him. If it is not added, or if it is changed to say that under Yua's leadership, the many families of Konoha Village worked together, then future generations will still respect and admire him.

Therefore, this reputation...

Yuya is actually willing to share with these ninja clans...

Of course, he still took the lead in the Asian tour.

Reputation is important, but Yuya's reputation is not bad either.

Not to mention there are so many other benefits.

Oh, of course, Shimura, Gekko, and the like, we won't be including them this time.

Did you really think I would treat everyone equally this time like before?

Don't you even look at yourself?
