Naruto: Yes, Uchiha-sama!

Chapter 64: Senju Hashirama: Tobirama, the bad nature of Konoha is deeply ingrained!

"The naturally evil Uchiha brat is still too young after all. The most important thing now is to build the ninja village, train more ninjas, and take on more missions. He's really not doing his job properly!"

Tobirama Senju sat in his chair and looked through the latest information about Akatsuki Village. He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and smiled.

The traditional Warring States ninja's war thinking made Senju Tobirama unable to understand Uchiha Cheng's current behavior, because he himself was not good at it and was instinctively unwilling to do business.

The most important thing is that the bloody lesson learned not long ago is still before our eyes.

This damn tulip business not only caused the village to lose a huge amount of money for no apparent reason, but also made the village inexplicably bear the blame! !

Isn’t this lesson profound enough?

That's what a ninja should do, that's what a ninja should do!

"Perhaps only an inherently evil Uchiha would commit such a rebellious act. Some nobles are already dissatisfied with Uchiha Makoto's actions. As time goes on, Konoha's workload will inevitably increase."

"Even if we agreed to a 70-30 split with Akatsuki Village, so what? This is a mission specifically requested by the employers for Konoha to carry out!"

Senju Tobirama thought happily.

His shrewd eyes flashed with a light that seemed to have seen through the fog of time. He had keenly noticed that the attitude of the Fire Nation nobles towards the Akatsuki Village was taking a sharp turn for the worse. Humph, poor Uchiha Makoto!

After secretly gathering information about the Akatsuki Village, Senju Tobirama organized the information and locked it in his own cabinet.

Ever since I was mistaken for a plagiarist.

This behavior has become a daily routine for Tobirama Senju.

Subsequently

Tobirama Senju started his daily work. He flipped through a pile of documents on the desk, then turned to the last line with ease, and read from the bottom to the top. This is the basic quality that a qualified Hokage should have, and he can process these documents very quickly.

"Another family is defrauding funds!"

“This is also a funding scam!”

"Not approved!"

"Not approved!"

Senju Tobirama wrote a few "Not Approved" on the document, and then couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows. This group of ninjas could really come up with any excuse to cheat him of his funds!

The reasons for this phenomenon.

That must be my good brother!

Big brother is such a bastard!

There really is no sense of confidentiality at all!

Generally speaking, funding issues are top secret. Uchiha Makoto has never disclosed the financial funds of Akatsuki Village, so the ninjas in Akatsuki Village only know that their Lord Guangying is very rich and has abundant financial funds.

As for how much money it was, they had no idea.

But as soon as Senju Hashirama came back, he started shouting everywhere that they had made great gains in the Land of Fire. He answered honestly whatever the group of ninjas asked, and accidentally let slip the news that they had brought back 10 billion taels of funds from the Land of Fire!

This is a huge sum of money!

After that, the ninja clan of Konoha went crazy!

However, every penny of these 10 billion taels of funds cannot be used indiscriminately. Good steel must be used on the blade, such as in one's own scientific research experiments, only then can such a small amount of money be approved!

"Brother, what a coincidence, you are in the office too."

A sneaky person poked his head in from the door. As soon as he heard the voice, Senju Tobirama knew who it was.

"Brother, what a coincidence! I remember you haven't appeared in this office for three consecutive days. If you hadn't come, I would have almost forgotten that you were still the Hokage of Konoha."

Senju Tobirama raised his head and saw Senju Hashirama acting sneakily and with a guilty look on his face. Then he made a Sima face and teased his good brother.

"Hahaha sorry, sorry."

"You're here, aren't you? You know I've never been good at handling these things. When I was the patriarch, you were the one who managed many of the family's affairs."

Hashirama Senju touched his head, not caring about Tobirama Senju's "sarcasm" at all. It is important for people to know themselves. He knew very well that he was not good at these things, so it would be better for him to hand over all the things to his younger brother Tobirama Senju. In this way, he could have more time to play happily with Madara. Oh, I almost forgot, there is also Mito.

"Tell me, big brother, what do you want to do this time?"

“I’m very busy!”

Senju Tobirama had a cold face and told Senju Hashirama to "speak quickly if you have something to say and fart quickly" because his time was very precious and there were a lot of documents that only he had to deal with.

And Senju Tobirama's intuition told him.

Big brother, it’s definitely not good this time!

“I want to apply for a grant.”

"impossible!"

"I'm telling you, big brother, I absolutely won't let you squander your precious funds on gambling. This is absolutely impossible!"

When Senju Tobirama heard that his elder brother Senju Hashirama also wanted to apply for funding, he subconsciously refused.

Big brother is an old gambler!

Not only did he lose all the pocket money his sister-in-law gave him, he also liked to borrow money from himself, and he basically never paid back the money he lent him. This bastard brother even dared to covet Konoha's funds.

"Tobirama, you misunderstood me!"

"How could I possibly use Konoha's funds to gamble? At most, I'll use my pocket money and yours."

Senju Tobirama: "Not even my pocket money!"

"I'm applying for funding this time for a good purpose, for the benefit of all of Konoha!"

Senju Hashirama said this with great confidence, and his serious expression surprised Senju Tobirama. His elder brother who usually did nothing was actually doing serious work.

Weird, really weird!

It can't be that Uchiha Madara is inherently evil, but he wants to use his ignorant and naive elder brother to cheat Konoha's funds!

It's possible, it's very likely!

Not only other families were jealous of the 10 billion taels of funding, the Uchiha clan was no exception and wanted to cheat some of it to subsidize the family. Naturally, he refused such a thing.

Moreover, he did not show mercy even to the Senju clan when it came to this sum of money. He would not approve any unreasonable requests. He would handle matters impartially and impartially, which was his basic principle as Shadow Hokage.

Even if it is Senju Tobirama's scientific research experiment.

That was also the money he saved by saving money bit by bit.

We can't delay the important work at all.

"Brother, if it was the Uchiha clan who instigated you to defraud the funds, you'd better tell me the truth now. You know you can't fool me at all!"

Senju Tobirama had a serious look on his face and felt even more tired. Not only did he have to guard against the Uchiha clan, but he also had to guard against his good elder brother doing stupid things behind his back.

"Of course not!"

"Tobirama, this is something I wanted to do completely on my own!"

Senju Hashirama said this with a solemn oath.

No matter what, he is the Hokage and must make contributions to Konoha. Then, Hashirama Senju took out two books from his pocket, one of which had "New Ninja" written on the cover and the other had "Romance of the Warring States" written on the cover.

Senju Tobirama: "What is this?"

"Sorry, I took an extra book. 'Romance of the Warring States' is the novel Madara and I have been reading recently. It's a pity that the author updates so slowly, only once a day. I really wish he could update three times a day."

Senju Tobirama rolled his eyes and said, "Not doing your job!!"

“Found it, it’s this article!”

Hashirama Senju ignored Tobirama Senju's words and opened "New Ninja" to find the latest short story.

The name of the short story is [The Kindness that Should Be Born in Akatsuki Village]

[At some point, an old wooden box appeared on every street corner in Akatsuki Village. One of them was placed under the eaves of a ninja tool shop. The box was unlocked, and on the lid, inscribed in red paint, were eight words: "Take what you need, and fill in any surplus." Inside, a layer of velvet cloth was spread, and scattered around were tens of thousands of taels of silver.]

A young Genin, fresh from a D-rank mission, passed by, his injured leg dragging along, his forehead protector tilted against his forehead. He had just enough money in his pocket to buy a bandage. He paused when he saw the wooden box and took out two thousand ryo—the amount for a consultation with the medical ninja. As his fingertips touched the velvet, he felt the kunai at his waist, muttering to himself, "I'll be back when I finish my next mission."

The old man who ran the ramen shop was passing by after packing up his stall. He glanced into the box and counted out three hundred taels from his purse, putting them in. The girl selling rice balls nearby also stood on tiptoe, gently placing the several hundred taels she had earned on the velvet cloth. Suddenly, petals fell onto the silver coins, like a brooch pinned to the box.

Three days later, the injured Genin returned. His forehead injury had healed somewhat, and his forehead protector was tied neatly. He placed three thousand taels in the box—one thousand more than the original amount. On the stone slab next to the box, someone had carved a small line of words: "Yesterday I borrowed two thousand taels, today I return three thousand taels. Thank you for your help."

The patrolling jonin could see clearly from the shadows: an orphaned ninja sprained his ankle during training and took money from the box to buy medicine; a ninja from a wealthy family would casually drop a silver coin in, muttering "What a hassle," but pause for a second.

The old woman selling oden squatted beside a wooden box, adding charcoal to the fire. She watched the money in the box grow. Occasionally, a jeweled coin purse would appear—a jounin had secretly placed it there. She added a handful of radish to the soup and muttered, "This box is warmer than the soup itself. It carries the warmth of the entire village."

A month later, the wooden box was repainted, and the red writing shone even brighter. A note lay at the bottom of the box, written by the injured Genin: "The forehead protector will get dirty, but the light in my heart will never." Next to it, a new line of small words, like the handwriting of Master Light and Shadow, read: "It's troublesome, but I can't let the light go out."

[What a tacit understanding, enthusiasm, and will of light this village is! ]

An unknown daimyo learned everything. It turned out that this was all intentional on the part of Lord Guangying. He had ordered the wooden box and the money to be placed there in the first place. The daimyo then tapped the shoulder of his attendant and said, "See? This is the foundation of the Akatsuki Village. It's not about the power of ninjutsu, but about when someone falls, someone quietly hands them a stepping stone. When they get up again, they clean the stone and leave it for the next person."

I can't help but reflect: if the entire ninja world were to follow Akatsuki's lead, their hatred would have long since been warmed into a simmering soup. After all, even the coldest night can't be weathered by an entire village supporting each other.

If other ninja villages can't do this, it's probably because they still retain the bad habits of the Warring States ninjas!

Under the excited gaze of Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju spent a few minutes reading the entire article. After reading it, he was so shocked that he felt that the folds of his cerebral cortex were smoothed out.

But it was different for Hashirama Senju. Although he had read this article several times, he was still shocked in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.

He seemed to see the light of the ninja world. This was the future he had always pursued and the image of the ninja village he hoped for.

Everyone can understand and help each other, making Konoha a home that everyone will always cherish and love.

Konoha must learn the advanced experience of Akatsuki Village and grow up bit by bit!

You have to take action as soon as possible!

"I'm applying for 200 million ryo. I've already planned to place 50 wooden boxes on the street corners of Konoha Village, each containing 4 ryo. This is the first step in creating a friendly and supportive atmosphere in Konoha, and it's also a major step for Konoha's future!"

Hashirama Senju could not hide his excitement. He couldn't wait to implement the plan and make Konoha what he wanted it to be.

"200 taels?"

"Brother, do you know that this is the reward for two S-level missions?"

Senju Tobirama frowned. He did think the content of the article was good, but his intuition told him otherwise.

There is an indescribable weirdness everywhere in this article.

And most importantly.
