He turned to face Shiranui Sou, his deep voice ringing out: "Boss."

The customers, who were initially displeased because they thought Shiranui Sho was planning to cut in line, suddenly changed their expressions.

This young man is actually the real owner of this business?

"Huh?"

The astonishment in Uchiha Hikaru's eyes was no less than that of these people.

Her gaze swept back and forth between Kakuzu and Shiranui Sho, and she remained silent for a long time.

But the shock he felt was no less than when he first saw Shiranui Sho in the Tsukuyomi space.

"Kakuzu, let's talk inside."

Shiranui Sou nodded slightly, took Uchiha Hikaru's hand, and stepped into the trading company.

The store is spacious.

Rows of solid wood cabinets stood neatly on both sides, displaying various goods from the Kingdom of Alabasta.

Exquisite bottled perfumes, bulk and boxed solid perfumes, as well as uniquely crafted fabrics and clothing.

At the far end of the shop stands a heavy, sealed iron door, behind which is a warehouse where large quantities of goods are stored.

"You've changed quite a bit in this period of time."

Shiranui Akira stopped and looked Kakuzu up and down, taking in all the changes that had taken place in him over this period of time.

Not long ago, he established an employment relationship with Kakuzu, making him the chief ninja officer stationed in the ninja world, responsible for selling goods from the Alabasta Kingdom.

Aside from regularly supplying goods, Shiranui Sho and Kakuzu did not have frequent contact.

He was busy with his spiritual practice and missions, while Jiao was busy with the early stages of his business. The two rarely met, only exchanging goods and accounts periodically.

After a long time, Kakuzu's aura has changed.

Compared to his previous coldness and sternness, he now appeared more worldly and gentle.

"Doing business and being a ninja are two completely different things."

Kakuzu's deep voice slowly rose, his tone revealing an undisguised satisfaction.

Being a ninja is just a job; making money is the real goal.

Now a senior executive in a business, with a steady and substantial daily turnover, his income is a hundred times more comfortable than the life-threatening assassination missions.

If being a "Chief Officer" can make money, then why be a ninja!

However, he also knew what was important and never completely abandoned his own fighting strength.

The fact that his business was able to successfully open up various channels in a short period of time, and become so popular and profitable, has not been targeted by anyone with ulterior motives, ultimately comes down to his strength.

Moreover, his body had already been transformed by the Earthly Grudge.

Even if one neglects daily practice, one's overall strength will not show a significant decline.

Kakuzu's gaze briefly swept over Uchiha Hikaru, who stood quietly to the side.

The fan pattern on her clothing made him recognize her as a member of the Uchiha clan at a glance, and he secretly wondered about her relationship with his boss.

However, this curiosity was short-lived.

In his eyes, people and things unrelated to money were not worth his time and effort. He quickly turned his attention back to Shiranui Sho and got down to business.

"Boss, all the goods you asked me to prepare are ready and are at the agreed location."

"Okay, I'll come over to check and pick up the goods later."

Shiranui Sou nodded slightly.

This is another thing he entrusted to Jiao Du to handle.

Some of the Alabasta Kingdom's specialties and products sell very well in the Land of Fire and even the Ninja World.

The ninja world also naturally has things that can find a market in the Alabasta Kingdom.

First, there's timber and food.

The Kingdom of Alabasta is located in the desert, and its timber and food resources rely on imports, while the fertile Land of Fire has abundant resources.

Secondly, there were military rations.

Ninja-specific rations are excellent export goods. Their portability and high energy content make them a perfect substitute for ordinary dry rations, serving as an emergency supply for the Alabasta royal army.

While establishing the Alabasta Kingdom Exotic Commerce Association, Kakuzu also opened up channels for sourcing these goods.

That's fair enough to justify the high salary paid by Shiranui Sho.

"Brother, what's going on?"

Uchiha Hikaru, who had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't help but tug at Shiranui Sho's sleeve, his clear eyes filled with confusion.

No, I only served as the clan chief for a short time, and suddenly my family became incredibly wealthy?

You'll find out soon enough.

Shiranui Xiao turned her head to look at her, a hint of mystery in her eyes, and gently patted her back.

"If there's anything you like here, feel free to take it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Hikaru's figure blurred, and he instantly floated to the shelf where perfumes were displayed, carefully picking up a perfume bottle engraved with delicate patterns.

The jewelry and gemstones displayed in the shop were certainly valuable, but she wasn't interested in them.

At first, she was attracted by the perfume's crisp and gentle scent.

Seeing that the girl had chosen her favorite item, Shiranui Sho turned to look at Kakuzu, raised her hand and gently patted his shoulder, speaking in a relaxed tone.

"Work hard, and a promotion and a raise are within reach!"

"Yes, boss!"

Upon hearing the words "salary increase," Kakuzu's eyes instantly lit up with a bright green light, and his tone became unusually enthusiastic.

However, upon further reflection, he fell into deep thought again.

Now that I'm the chief executive officer, how can I get promoted?

……

Inside the warehouse where goods destined for Alabasta are stored.

The huge warehouse was filled with boxes of goods. After roughly checking the goods, Shiranui Sho began to form hand seals, and her chakra surged within her body.

A pale blue barrier instantly unfolded, revealing the complete emblem.

"Next, we'll go to another place."

Shiranui Sho gently placed her free hand on Uchiha Hikaru's shoulder and said.

Uchiha Hikaru was already familiar with the Flying Thunder God Technique.

However, Shiranui Sho's somewhat mysterious demeanor along the way only intensified her curiosity, making her look forward to the next stop.

A black light flickered.

When I opened my eyes again, I was in another pitch-black warehouse.

After Shiranui Sho settled the goods transferred by the Flying Thunder God Technique, she then activated the Flying Thunder God Technique again with Uchiha Hikaru.

What came into view was a vast, boundless desert and a peculiar building standing in the sand.

"Is this... the Land of Wind?"

Uchiha Hikaru blinked and asked softly, somewhat uncertainly.

When talking about vast deserts in the ninja world, this is the first place that comes to her mind.

"No, this is the Kingdom of Alabasta."

Shiranui Sho shook her head and slowly uttered the name of the country to which the land beneath their feet belonged.

Alabasta...Kingdom?

Uchiha Hikaru was slightly taken aback, and the first thing that flashed through his mind was the tongue-twisting name of the trading company he had just heard from.

It seems to be Alabasta?

She couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Does such a place exist in the ninja world?"

Clearly, traversing the world was beyond her imagination.

Seeing this, Shiranui Sho recalled her own reaction when she first crossed the world.

When he arrived on the vast ocean, his first reaction was also that he was on the sea near the Land of Fire.

He spoke slowly, uttering words that made the girl's pupils shrink.

"This is not the ninja world, but... another world."

Chapter 110 Sha Crocodile!

Inside the Spider Cafe.

"Little sister, here's your hot milk~"

Miss held two coffee cups with her fingers, first placing one in front of Shiranui Sho, then placing the other cup in front of Uchiha Hikaru.

Uchiha Hikaru frowned slightly.

The image of a little girl with hot milk always gives me the feeling of being treated like a child.

How could she, the dignified head of the Uchiha clan, tolerate such an insult?

So she frowned and said, "Don't treat me like a child. Do you have anything for adults to drink?"

Before Miss could even answer with her fingers, Shiranui Sho blew on the cup of hot milk in front of her before speaking.

"When you're older, you'll be able to drink this latte without coffee, just like me."

"All right……"

Uchiha Hikaru still listened to his older brother, and his momentum weakened slightly.

She looked at the liquid in front of Shiranui Sho that resembled milk, and her eyes showed some confusion.

"hehe."

Miss watched the interaction between the brother and sister with two fingers, a smile playing on her lips.

At the beginning of their relationship, she was also somewhat intimidated by her new boss, Shiranui Sho.

The scene where the other party easily killed Mr. 5 and then suppressed Mr. 1 was especially etched in her mind.

But as they spent more time together, her fear gradually transformed into loyalty.

As long as they don't do anything that crosses the line, this new boss is very easygoing and generous to his subordinates.

"Is everyone else busy?"

"Shiranui Sou asked casually."

Miss nodded with both fingers and said, "Miss recently opened two new stores in two cities, and they went to help out."

Her eyes held admiration for the young man before her.

When she first saw him entrust the affairs of the "Konoha" company to the young Miss Wednesday, she had doubts.

Not only her, but several other former chief conductors of Baroque Works also shared this mentality.

But judging from the current situation, the young girl did do a good job.

"Ah."

After learning more about the current situation, Shiranui Sho picked up her coffee cup and drank it all in one gulp, then stood up.

"Then you go ahead with your work, I'll go check on her."

Shiranui Sho put down her coffee cup and took Uchiha Hikaru's hand again.

A black light flickered.

When they reappeared, the two were in a spacious office.

This is the headquarters of the Alabasta "Konoha" company, and is the office of Chief Commander Vivi.
