Naruto: My version is ahead of the ninja world

Yakushiji Fusen is a veteran ninja since the founding of Konoha. According to the original owner's memories, although Yugen does not know this person's exact age, he has at least been in charge of Konoha's orphanage for more than 20 years.

In a sense, this person can be considered a force within Konoha, even if it is hidden... Over such a long period of time, he must have trained quite a few ninjas.

Yakushiji is, after all, the person responsible for raising orphans. During the education process, he can easily plant various ideas in the minds of young children. Certain age groups are particularly suitable for brainwashing. After brainwashing, a person's life is very likely to be controlled.

In a sense, Yugen was actually a pawn controlled by Yakushiji, but due to his mediocre talent and strength that wasn't even good enough to be cannon fodder, he was directly abandoned.

This should be considered a good thing, at least they won't die without knowing why.

The orphanages in ninja villages are often associated with their dark side, bearing the mission of cultivating various special talents... Ninja villages need people to do dirty work, and some dirty work always has to be done by someone.

And those kinds of things are especially suitable for orphans who have no ties to bear.

Even without mentioning Yakushiji Fusen, just look at Yakushi Nonou and Yakushi Kabuto in the original work to understand the responsibilities that orphans and orphanages bear in the ninja village system.

There's no way around it; ninja villages simply don't tolerate idlers. And objectively speaking, the responsibility for these dirty deeds can't be entirely pinned on Danzo. Even if Danzo is particularly suited to taking the blame, some things that involve the entire ninja village system can't ultimately be blamed on him alone.

Therefore, if we were to label the person in front of us as either a hero or a villain, based on my memory and common sense, I would say that Yakushiji Fusen is a villain.

"Lord Yakushiji, what do you mean by that? I don't understand." Yugen pretended not to understand.

The headmaster of Yakushiji Temple, who manages orphans, is obviously someone with an extremely strong desire for control. He wouldn't allow any accidents to happen to the things he manages.

Unfortunately, for Yakushiji, it was already a bit too late for him to come looking for Hagen at this point.

Yu Xian already has the ability to protect himself, so it's impossible for the other party to bring him under their control... The dean is just the dean, and his power is severely limited.

Yakushiji gave Yugen a deep look, then said, "I remember every child who came out of the orphanage. Yugen, you've always been mediocre, both in the orphanage and as a ninja. But why did you change so much after the war started?"

In his description, Yu Xian seems to be a person who is exceptionally good at enduring hardship and biding his time, but in reality, Yu Xian is just a different person.

"Between life and death, one always learns a great deal."

Yu Gen wondered if their meeting was accidental or if the other party had deliberately come looking for him. If it was the latter, regardless of how the person found him, just the fact that the other party appeared as soon as he returned to Konoha was enough to make him understand Yakushiji's intentions.

"Life and death...that makes sense. The sense of urgency on the battlefield is completely different from that in the village." Yakushiji, of course, did not believe Yugen's words.

"Is there something you need from Lord Yakushiji?" Yugen asked bluntly.

"It's nothing. I was just thinking that since an excellent ninja like you has returned to the village, you should go back to the orphanage to set an example for the children there."

Go back? For what purpose, to give a report? Yu Xian didn't see any need for further contact.

"Lord Yakushiji, once I have completed the task assigned by the Hokage, I will definitely make a special trip to visit you and the children in the temple, as long as I have enough time... I am a person who never forgets my roots."

"It's a deal then, I'll be waiting for you."

The two exchanged a few words at the alley entrance. After receiving Yu Xian's promise, Yakushiji turned and walked into the narrow alley. Soon his figure disappeared... He didn't care about Yu Xian's condition of "plenty of time" and took it as Yu Xian's agreement.

Yu Xian hadn't forgotten his identity as a medical ninja from Yakushiji. As a special case whose strength was growing rapidly, he was a little worried that the other party might use him for some kind of experiment, like dissecting and studying him.

Therefore, staying far away from the other person is the right decision. Yu Xian only hopes that this person can understand his intentions.

If all else fails, then he... well, he'll prepare to call the police.

After this little incident, Yu Xian lost interest in continuing to wander around. He found a place to eat something and then chose a hotel to rest.

For the next three days, he did nothing but eat and sleep.

Three days later, he reunited with Kohinata and headed to the Hokage's office building.

This time, the two did not wait and entered the Hokage's office very smoothly.

"Yu Xian, Zhen Yan, after three days of testing, it has been proven that your ninja tool is very successful. In fact, it is even more suitable than expected. The village will not hesitate to proceed with mass production."

Upon seeing the two, the Third Hokage immediately put on a smile.

His attitude indirectly reflects Konoha's emphasis on scientific ninja tools.

"Lord Hokage, it's good that it can be of use," Yu Xuan said.

There's no need to discuss whether he's willing to hand over the "intellectual property rights" here, because he already has.

"In view of your outstanding contributions, the village has decided to give you appropriate rewards."

"First, there's the economic reward, which is the simplest and most appropriate. However, due to the ongoing war, the village is short of funds, so I hope you won't have too high expectations for the amount."

Just as Kohinata was about to make a symbolic refusal, the Hokage waved his hand to stop him, making his meaning very clear... Take it if it's given to you.

"Then we shall accept it without further ado, Lord Hokage."

Yu Xian accepted the first reward certificate, and then he discovered that the reward amount was not as stingy as the Naruto had described... The prize money was roughly equivalent to two Asuma, which, when converted into the currency Yu Xian was most familiar with, was equivalent to more than 30 million.

Considering it's wartime, this amount of money is quite substantial. Yu Xian has become incredibly wealthy overnight, and if she were to go to the battlefield again, she would definitely have plenty of explosive talismans.

"Furthermore, we need to produce ninja tools in the village and form experimental combat teams. You two can serve as advisors... Considering your age, we cannot make you the leaders." The Hokage seemed apologetic.

"Lord Hokage, we understand... we currently lack the ability to organize a team."

Whether it's production consultant or team consultant, it's clearly just a measure to elevate Yu Xian and Zhen Yan's status. As for not letting them take on leading roles, it makes sense when you think about it. On one hand, it's because they're young and inexperienced, and on the other hand, they're not the Hokage's trusted confidants.

The Hokage was satisfied with their attitude; it was good that they could remain calm. Of course, he wouldn't just give them a paltry sum to get rid of them.

"Finally, I've decided to grant you permission to learn certain knowledge..."
