Naruto: Yes, Uchiha-sama!

"The number of detonating talismans"

"This is too exaggerated!"

"Yeah, how much did it cost?"

Following behind was Uchiha Setsuna, and Uzumaki Shinji couldn't help but ask.

"The Akatsuki Village Research Institute has revolutionized the production process and technology of detonating talismans. I spent nearly 2 billion taels on this technology alone. During this period, we tried dozens of materials and improved various processes. Although ninjas are still needed to participate in the process, most of the work can be done by ordinary people. There are no middlemen to profit from the difference, and the cost has been reduced by three to five times. The more you produce, the lower the cost."

"They are all at cost price. The detonating tags you saw are only worth a little over 1 billion taels, close to 2 billion taels. However, according to the market price in the ninja world, they are not cheap."

Uchiha Makoto glanced at the two of them, then slowly said that this was actually a top secret of the Akatsuki Village, but Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji should be trustworthy people, so it would be okay to tell them.

Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji looked at each other, silently calculated the price in their minds, and then thought about the funds of their own ninja village, and suddenly felt that this world was a bit absurd.

After a round of walking, Uchiha Setsuna and Uzumaki Shinji were almost speechless. They saw several warehouses full of detonating tags, as well as piles of kunai, shuriken, and various war supplies.

In their opinion, the strength of Akatsuki Village and Kumogakure Village was not much different. Once the war started, it could be said that the odds were 50-50, and neither side was sure of winning.

But

Now.

It can be said that Akatsuki Village is sure to win!

Just throwing money at them can kill them.

For the Akatsuki and Kumogakure, war is a game of draining each other's health. In the early stages, neither side has much, and they keep draining each other's health. But ninja tools cost money, detonating tags cost money, medicine costs money, and even compensation for death in battle costs money. A ninja's fighting power and willpower are directly proportional to their money! The further you go, the more health you lose!

But the health bar of Xiaonin Village is too thick. Not only is it thick, but it can also restore blood. The dividends from salt this month have reached more than 6 billion taels, and it will probably be even more next month.

"Wish the Hidden Cloud Village good luck."

Uchiha Setsuna felt a little sorry for the Hidden Cloud Village. He didn't want to fight against an enemy like the Akatsuki Village. As soon as they met, they would scatter dozens of detonating tags. From time to time, a Genin covered in detonating tags would jump out from the bushes and rush towards you. It was probably a shadow clone.

Who can stand this?

"Cheng, how much money do you have in Akatsuki Village to spend like this?"

Shinji Uzumaki still couldn't recover and asked the question that concerned him the most, but Uchiha Makoto just smiled and said nothing more. Should he tell others that the annual budget of Akatsuki Village is nearly ten times that of Konoha?

Sorry, I'm afraid you'll be tempted by the money.

"I have a very good relationship with the Daimyo, and he supports me very much. After I win, the Fire Nation Daimyo will also have face. Besides, there are conflicts of interest between countries. You all understand."

Uchiha Makoto used the Daimyo as a shield and prevaricated. He was not afraid that Konoha would notice the clues and go to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to verify it afterwards.

Because the Fire Country Daimyo did know the inside story, but the previous behavior of Akatsuki Village had crossed the red line. In addition, Akatsuki Village did a great job. After the salt market was unified, the Daimyo and the nobles who participated in it all made a lot of money. Even if there were any complaints, everyone turned a blind eye for the sake of money.

Never again!

But how could Konoha know about such things?

What if they follow suit?

"That's right, it's the money I sent to Akatsuki Village. I've long been unhappy with the Land of Lightning. The previous Daimyo of the Land of Lightning was disrespectful to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. Nine generations of revenge can still be avenged. Akatsuki Village did a great job!"

The Fire Country Daimyo will definitely stick to this matter and help Uchiha Makoto keep the secret.

I'm so tired today.

Do experiments for an afternoon, then come back and start writing immediately.

Start coding at six o'clock.

I feel dizzy writing this.

Please vote for me! ! !

Chapter 90 The atmosphere in Akatsuki Village begins to change, and the village’s fortune is on the line!

"Cheng, since you have made up your mind!"

"As an ally of the Akatsuki Village, my Uzumaki clan will never let you fight alone!"

After seeing Uchiha Makoto's exaggerated and terrifying war budget, Uzumaki Shinji also made up his mind to send troops after the war broke out. After all, the situation could be said to be very favorable after the war started.

If he still hesitates and hesitates, how can he be worthy of the friendship worth 36.8 billion taels?

The Uzumaki clan would never do such a thing as repaying kindness with enmity!

After sending Uzumaki Shinji away.

Uchiha Makoto left Uchiha Setsuna alone.

"Setsuna, since Konoha doesn't approve of me starting a war, then I have nothing to say. I just hope that Konoha won't interfere with my affairs when the time comes."

Uchiha Setsuna looked a little unnatural. No matter what purpose the Akatsuki Village had in mind or what they did, even starting a war, they always used the irreproachable slogan of "seeking justice for the dead Chunin."

The Uzumaki clan has decided to follow.

And the leaves.

"Makoto, I'm sorry, I can't make the decision on this matter. After all, the First Hokage is Hashirama-sama. But don't worry, if a war really breaks out and your Akatsuki Village falls on the disadvantage, we, the Uchiha clan, will definitely support you. Even if Konoha doesn't send troops, the Uchiha clan will send people."

Uchiha Setsuna said this with a hint of shame in his tone. Konoha is now ruled by the Senju clan, and the Uchiha clan is still in a weak position. He cannot guarantee to Uchiha Makoto that if this matter escalates to the point of war, Konoha will definitely send troops to help.

But when the time comes, it is extremely urgent.

The Uchiha clan will definitely put pressure on the Senju clan, and even if the situation becomes desperate, they will send Uchiha clan ninjas to lend a helping hand to the Akatsuki Village.

"I feel relieved with your words, but my family probably has no chance. This battle is a battle for my Akatsuki Village to establish its prestige. Now the ninja world has been saying that Akatsuki Village is Konoha's pawn, and I have never liked such a statement.

After Uchiha Makoto finished speaking, he waved goodbye to Uchiha Setsuna and gave him a small note before leaving, which read: "Be careful of Senju Tobirama!"

After the overt and covert diplomatic confrontation ended.

The final war mobilization of Akatsuki Village has begun.

At this moment, Uchiha Makoto was sitting in his office, looking at the roster in his hand. This was the list of personnel for this special military operation. There were a total of 3,652 people, which almost emptied one-third of the ninjas in Akatsuki Village. This was already the limit of what the Akatsuki Village ninjas could add now.

Uchiha Makoto's current prestige is not enough to make all the ninjas of Akatsuki Village come out at once, not to mention that the headquarters of Akatsuki Village also needs ninjas to be stationed and defended to maintain the daily safety of the village.

and.

"The first battle is the decisive battle, and the whole country will be determined in one battle."

Such a slogan is somewhat unlucky, and the quick victory faction is actually the surrender faction.

"Master Guangying, combat supplies have been distributed to every ninja participating in the battle, including detonating tags, kunai, and shurikens. Also, here is the budget plan for this special military operation, totaling approximately 210 billion ryo!"

Kazuma walked into the office room at this time, holding the war budget for this military operation in his hand. This war budget would be enough to fight a large-scale war even in the ninja village chaos in the next few decades. At this point in time, it was equivalent to directly spending money to win a war, which was simply inhumane.

even.

If the First Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village knew that Uchiha Makoto had prepared 210 billion ryo to fight them, he might have secretly written to Uchiha Makoto: "Master Kokage, I was wrong. This matter can actually be solved with billion ryo. Just give me the money and I will do everything for you."

Although this description is a bit exaggerated.

But if you really do this, maybe there is a small chance of success?

"Master Guangying, please forgive me for being blunt. At this point, it seems this war is completely unnecessary for Akatsuki Village, especially considering the expenditures just for the detonating talismans."

Kazuma was really frightened when he saw the huge amount of money flowing out of his hands. Although it felt good to be a financial sponsor, this was a completely losing war.

Let Kazuma once again couldn't help but persuade him, if he stopped now

“Is there still a chance to stop now?”

Uchiha Makoto asked back. The propaganda had already caused the grassroots ninjas of Akatsuki Village to fall into an unprecedented state of frenzy. Regarding the tit-for-tat diplomatic statement of the Hidden Cloud Village, there was even a sense of indignation that "the enemy not only refused to surrender, but also dared to fight back against me."

"Can't come to an agreement?"

"Then fight!"

"Fight until they surrender!"

"Long live Akatsuki Village, long live Master Light and Shadow!"

"Everything for the will of light!"

Akatsuki Village has initially cultivated a group of "village-loving" ninjas. They took to the streets of Akatsuki Village with banners and issued the most intense protest against the diplomatic statement of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Since this time.

The Anbu ninjas cooperated with their protest and posted their banners all over the streets and alleys of Akatsuki Village. The whole village was in an uproar. The villagers looked at these inspiring banners, their hearts surging and extremely excited, and they joined in one after another.

Especially the villagers and employees of the village-owned enterprises run by Akatsuki Village, they gathered together and began to work overtime to deliver various materials to Akatsuki Village. After all, their vital interests have long been firmly tied to Akatsuki Village. In this ninja world, it is no exaggeration to say that they all prosper together and suffer together.

Some merchants who were bribed by Uchiha Makoto and those with good economic sense began to participate in this event. These spontaneous protesting ninjas gave free water and food, and took the opportunity to advertise themselves and started a big discount promotion. The ninjas responded enthusiastically, stepping on their left foot with their right foot, and then their right foot with their left foot, spiraling upwards, without any sign of the depressed mood as if the war was about to break out.

Even the economic development speed of Xiaonin Village is accelerating. The big businessmen have sales channels for their materials and have begun to increase their commercial investment in Xiaonin Village. A wave of hot money has poured into Xiaonin Village and started to invest in factory construction. The villagers have received batches of orders, which has also led to more people flocking to Xiaonin Village because it is easier to find a job here.

The current development of Akatsuki Village can be said to be faster and better than before!

of course.

Uchiha Makoto knew that there were prerequisites for maintaining this situation.

That's to win!

The ninjas, villagers, and merchants don't know more about the inside story. They think that Konoha and the Uzumaki clan are allies of the Akatsuki Village, so they now believe that the Akatsuki Village will win.

As long as you can keep winning.

All those problems are not problems at all!

The ninjas obviously realized this. Even if they didn't want to start a war so rashly, the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. Uchiha Makoto would not allow them to retreat, public opinion would not allow them to retreat, the villagers and merchants would not allow them to retreat, and even their own family members were clamoring to teach the Hidden Cloud Village a lesson this time.

The war machine of Akatsuki Village was like a tank filled with gasoline, rumbling and ready to crush the enemy at any time.

"This battle is inevitable."

"Although, judging solely from fiscal expenditure, this war is indeed a loss-making enterprise, the accounts don't work that way."

Uchiha Makoto said this.

He analyzed the current situation of Akatsuki Village and its future plans to Kazuma.

Although fighting this war in this way is very expensive, even if Akatsuki Village wins, it will still lose a lot of money, but the accounts certainly cannot be calculated in this way.

Uchiha Makoto wants to seize the claim!

Seize the right to speak!

Seize Konoha's influence!
