Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 381 Old Man: Sigh, the ninja world is so powerful now, how can it be destroyed?

This old man is the last survivor of the conflict between the main and branch families of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon.

His life had actually been nearing its end a year or two ago.

He could have simply closed his eyes and let Otsutsuki Toneri live on, bearing the goal of his clan—correcting the mistakes of the entire ninja world—which meant killing some people.

However, after watching those science fiction movies, because many of the special effects were simulated using real effects, the old man, who was on his deathbed, was so shocked that he sat up in surprise.

Holy crap, the Ninja World Continent is this awesome?!

One shell, one city?!

How can we then fulfill the ancestral teachings left by our ancestors?

Okay, we can't fight anymore.

They were fighting to the death on this side of the moon, but the people on the Ninja World continent just overtook them without relying on ninjas.

How can we play like this?!

While the old man was still hesitating about whether or not to let Sheren bear the ancestral precepts, You Ya contacted Sheren and said that he would send someone to contact Sheren in one or two years.

After learning about it, Sheren immediately communicated with his grandfather.

Then the grandfather became interested.

This is a great opportunity!

An opportunity to get up close to a village in the ninja world.

Otsutsuki Toneri was undoubtedly very interested in Konoha Village in the ninja world.

But here's the problem.

His interest doesn't mean he won't be deceived.

Or rather, it is precisely because Otsutsuki Toneri is still just a child that he is more easily caught in the traps set by the adults.

Before he died, he had to do everything he could to remove these obstacles for his servants.

So he has held on until now.

They held out until Minato Namikaze arrived.

Fortunately, Minato Namikaze wasn't lying at all; he was just stating his own understanding.

This gave the old man the illusion that the weapons of Konoha Village were indeed real.

If that's the case, then what's the point of struggling?

Even if, as he wished, Toneri evolved the Byakugan, would he be able to fight against those guys in the ninja world?!

impossible.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to let Toneri actually join Konoha Village on the Ninja World Continent.

That's what he thought, but here's the problem.

After his death, will the hermit be able to take care of himself?

Of the Otsutsuki clan members on the moon, Toneri is now the only survivor.

The old man couldn't possibly let his servant go to the mainland like that.

He wanted to do everything he could to eliminate some potential problems.

So he went to Minato Namikaze.

And his problem is very...

reality.

"What kind of treatment will Toneri receive after he goes to Konoha?" the old man asked Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze was taken aback, then quickly stated the conditions that Yua had given him before he set off.

Basically, the treatment that Toneri receives is comparable to that of an elite Jonin.

If the servant can provide some useful information, Youya certainly wouldn't mind improving his treatment.

This gave Minato Namikaze a very relaxed situation to talk to Toneri's old man.

To be honest, even Youya himself hadn't expected that besides Sheren, there would be an old man on the moon who was almost dead—

The reason is simple: it didn't appear in the theatrical version!

Fortunately, Yuya never intended to use violence against Toneri from the beginning, nor did she intend to force Toneri to come to the Ninja World.

Otherwise, Minato Namikaze would have been really screwed over by Yua today.

However, to be honest, given Minato Namikaze's fighting prowess, he doesn't seem to be inferior to a severely injured and dying old man or a congenitally blind Toneri.

Ultimately, it's definitely the best-case scenario that no fight broke out.

After that, the old man asked Minato Namikaze a series of questions.

The most important question is how many wives Konoha can marry now.

Although this question may seem absurd, it is indeed very important to this elderly man.

Why?

Of the entire race on the moon, only Toneri remains!

This is just like Uchiha Sasuke, whose entire family was almost wiped out. From then on, the heavy responsibility of restoring the glory of the Otsutsuki clan fell on Otsutsuki Toneri's shoulders.

If you can only marry one wife, you might as well give up and go to bed early, how long will that take?!

Minato Namikaze thought about it carefully and finally told the old man: Theoretically speaking, Konoha Village only allows men to marry one wife.

But Minato Namikaze suddenly changed his tone, dazzling the old man's back.

Minato Namikaze said: Although that's theoretically the case, some wealthy merchants in Konoha Village never care about that. They have plenty of maids, butlers, and servants in their homes.

The old man understood; this meant that although one could only have one wife, there was still considerable room for maneuver.

Of course, Minato Namikaze was just joking; in reality, many women in Konoha are very violent and serious.

She's from Konoha's inner city, no less than you. The so-called "matching social status" means that as long as the woman has a Konoha inner city household registration, even if the man also has a corresponding household registration, at most the two families will have similar social standing. Under this premise, it's impossible for the woman to tolerate the man's philandering.

Therefore, the only possible situation for such household maids, servants, and beautiful housekeepers is:

The woman in the house is not from Konoha's inner city.

Otherwise, no woman would be willing to let her husband cheat on her at home.

Of course, Minato Namikaze wasn't lying anyway. At most, he'll just tell your kid not to date women from Konoha's inner city.

The old man then asked a whole host of questions.

Minato Namikaze answered truthfully.

Although his account may be slightly inaccurate in some aspects, however...

It cannot be denied that he was telling the truth.

Finally, the old man smiled and told Minato Namikaze to wait outside for a few days.

Minato Namikaze didn't care, since the Rocket was right there and he could go back anytime he wanted.

So the old man called Sheren to his side and told him about the conflict that had occurred between the main family and the branch family on the moon.

This was the first time Sheren had learned of such a fact.

Utterly shocked, Sheren's mindset changed.

Before Sheren's mindset could change further, the old man said directly to Sheren: "Little Sheren, come here, Grandpa will give you a big treasure."

The attendant naturally went over.

And the final result is:

From then on, Toneri's world was no longer just the grayish-white he perceived with his chakra.

What he saw was a colorful world.

Yes, his grandfather gave his eyes to the servant before he died.

Strictly speaking, Toneri's best choice would be to find the eyes of someone in the ninja world who has the same Byakugan.

But the old man, who had watched so many science fiction movies, felt a wave of despair.

What if Sheren really angers someone by stealing their eyes?!

That's the power to destroy a city with just one shell.

If a rocket is combined with this cannonball, wouldn't Sheren be finished?

Alright, alright. Although my eyesight isn't great, you'll have to make do with it.

Don't provoke these lunatics on the ninja world by stealing other people's eyes.

And yet, the unborn firework has managed to preserve its eyes—what a wonderful thing!

……

A few days later, Minato Namikaze found Toneri, even though the old man had asked Toneri to go to the Ninja World before he died.

But in the end, Sheren chose to stay on the moon.

Regardless, this is where his people are buried.

He wanted to dedicate the rest of his life to protecting his people.

Minato Namikaze was helpless, but he respected the other party's choice.

Afterwards, Minato Namikaze returned to report to Yua.

The journey back was smooth sailing, which left Minato Namikaze, who was ready to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to pull out the return capsule at any time, somewhat disappointed.

He was hoping to put on a good show.

Oh well, now that I'm back, I'll report to the Hokage first, then go back and hug my little daughter.

During his few days on the moon, he's already come up with a really cool name for his daughter!
