Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

"It's nothing," Kushina forced a smile.

Bai Yu chuckled lightly, "If you have any troubles, I'd be happy to listen. Of course, if it's inconvenient to talk about it, then that's fine."

Kushina was silent for a moment after hearing this, then suddenly asked:

"Bai Yu, are you planning to graduate normally, or early?"

My parents, spanning three generations, won't allow me to graduate early; I can only take the graduation exam in sixth grade.

Bai Yu was slightly taken aback; it turned out that Kushina was worried about this matter.

Although the ninja academy has been changed to a six-year system, the school allows students to graduate early.

Moreover, it's wartime now, so graduating in fourth grade is normal.

Nowadays, early graduation is even encouraged.

This great battle could go on for who knows how long. Bai Yu could stay in the sixth grade, so naturally he didn't want to graduate in the fourth grade.

"The Third Generation Lord is also concerned about you."

Bai Yu comforted him.

Kushina was the real Konoha nepotism beneficiary; even the Third Hokage cared about her so much.

If conditions allowed, Bai Yu even wanted to stay at the school as a teaching assistant after graduation, and live a life of hardship until he became a first-level sorcerer before leaving the ninja academy.

"Of course I know that." Kushina looked somewhat listless.

"Sakamoto-sensei did ask me if I wanted to graduate early."

"how do you say?!"

Kushina asked.

[Affected by an unknown energy field]

"I'd like to graduate as soon as possible and serve my village." Bai Yu sensed being watched and silently activated his "Sixth Sense."

It's the Third Hokage!

Bai Yu continued, "But the medical class curriculum is too complicated."

Graduating now would affect my learning of medical ninjutsu.

So I want to wait until sixth grade to graduate.

"This much time should allow me to improve my medical ninjutsu."

"That's good." Kushina breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly said very seriously, "Shiroha, you can't die!"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I need to live for at least several hundred years to make it worthwhile."

"Nonsense, how could anyone live that long? Wouldn't that make you a monster?" Kushina glared at Shiroha, but her mood completely relaxed.

"That's hard to say," Bai Yu said with a smile.

Kushina has excellent physical attributes and an astonishing amount of chakra. For a considerable period of time, her potential for growth as a ninja far surpasses that of Shiraha.

I wonder if she has the talent of a wizard.

However, Bai Yu needs to reach at least the mental strength of a third-level apprentice to help Kushina with the test.

Perhaps ninjas are not incapable of immortality, but simply haven't broken through a certain limit; it doesn't mean ninjas are truly inferior to wizards.

Even if she has the talent to become a wizard, this path may not be suitable for her.

Being a jack-of-all-trades is sometimes not as good as being a specialist.

Moreover, Bai Yu sensed something was amiss from the Third Hokage's spying.

......

After dinner, the two went to Bai Yu's house together.

After working for a while, Kushina prepared to go home.

"Kushina... wait a minute."

Bai Yu suddenly stood up and called out to Kushina, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong, Shiraha? Just say what's on your mind." Kushina asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Um... I'd like to borrow some more money from you... I know this request is a bit much..."

After saying that, Shiraha took out a folded piece of paper covered with writing from his pocket and handed it to Kushina.

After much deliberation, Bai Yu decided to borrow money.

The outbreak of war instilled a strong sense of crisis in Bai Yu.

The medicinal baths used in conjunction with the Knight's Breathing Technique have run out, causing a sharp decline in training progress.

If you cultivate diligently, you will eventually break through.

However, if you refine the potion, the time can be greatly shortened.

The raw materials for making wizard potions are more expensive than medicinal baths, and even after graduating, he didn't initially undertake any high-paying missions.

Bai Yu estimated that the raw materials needed to make one potion would cost at least 30,000 to 40,000 taels of silver. Based on his success rate in making potions in his previous life, at least 10 sets of raw materials would be needed to guarantee the production of 2 finished potions.

Each alchemy session costs at least 30 taels of silver.

Kushina took the note, read it carefully, and looked up at Shiraha with a slightly surprised expression.

"Are you planning to sell yourself to me? Just for one million taels?"

Judging from Kushina's tone, one million taels was the same as one hundred taels.

Bai Yu said, "To become stronger, I need more resources."

"No problem, I can transfer the money to your card soon. If you need any medicinal herbs, you can just go to Matsuno Masato and mention my name."

Kushina readily agreed.

Seeing how readily she agreed, Bai Yu couldn't help but ask, "Won't using so much money and resources at once affect you? I can accept installment payments as well."

Although Kushina owned more than twenty shops, one million ryo was at least the reward for an S-rank mission, a mission that usually required a Jonin squad to carry out.

For an ordinary Jonin, it would take at least several S-rank missions to accumulate this much money.

This is definitely not a small amount.

"No." Kushina shook her head, seemingly lost in thought.

According to Matsuno Masato, the combined annual revenue of the shops on East Street is around 70 to 80 million taels.

Furthermore, the Uzumaki clan's businesses in the Fire Capital have been handed over to the village for management, and the third generation said they would give me approximately 40 million taels in dividends annually.

"?" Bai Yu felt that poverty had indeed limited his imagination.

Earning 120 million taels a year while lying down?

It seems we didn't borrow enough!

"It's too late for you to regret it now." Kushina waved the IOU in her hand; Shiro had already signed and pressed his fingerprint on it.

As she spoke, Kushina signed her name on it.

Bai Yu waved his hand, "I never regret what I do! From now on, I'm yours."

"Pah!" Kushina spat lightly. "Who cares!"

"Fine, if you don't agree, then forget it." Bai Yu suddenly became firm and reached out to take back the IOU.

Although he could earn money while lying down, he wanted to stand up.

"Who said I disagreed?" Kushina withdrew her hand and stuffed the IOU into her bodice.

[Chapter 14. Yagami Shiroha - The True Successor of the Will of Fire]

Kushina is very efficient.

The next day, Bai Yu had an extra million taels in his account.

He could finally begin concocting the level 0 wizard potion, "Vitality Potion".

However, the day after Bai Yu received the money, the Anbu came knocking on his door.

The ANBU ninja led Shiraha to the door of the Hokage's office.

"Lord Third Generation, Yagami Shiroha has arrived."

"Come in."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's gentle voice came from the office.

The ANBU ninja pushed open the door and gestured for Bai Yu to go in.

Bai Yu entered the Hokage's office and saw Hiruzen Sarutobi writing something at his desk, with various documents piled up on both sides of the desk.

"Wait a moment, let me process this document first." Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced up at Shiraha, then continued to focus on his official duties.

"Yes," Bai Yu replied respectfully, though slightly nervous.

After a while, Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head, looked at Shiraha who seemed somewhat reserved, put down his pen, stood up, and smiled as he said:

"Don't be nervous. I called you here not to question you as the Third Hokage, but to learn about some things as Kushina's elder."

"Yes." Seemingly sensing Hiruzen Sarutobi's sincerity, Shiraha relaxed a little.

"Let's go next door and talk."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and walked out of the office first.

Bai Yu followed him to the lounge next door.

"Please sit wherever you like." Hiruzen Sarutobi gestured for Shiraha to sit on the sofa, while he went to the side and poured two cups of tea.

"Thank you, Third Generation Lord." Bai Yu looked flattered, then sat down on the sofa with a tense expression.

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't say anything more. For a child of this age to be summoned by him alone and to react like this was already quite good.

"I heard from Kushina that you two have a very good relationship."
