He was in Konoha, and his domineering aura was overflowing.

The few who are likely to be people like Madara Uchiha and Kakuzu are probably among them.

Why is there a Kakuzu?

His attitude towards money is well-known and widely praised.

Suddenly, Wu Zixian froze.

[Great Overlord, have you already spread the magnificent radiance of your will to dominate those mountains strewn with strange rocks? Oh, how truly exciting!]

Mountains covered with strangely shaped rocks.

Could it be the Land of Earth?

Mito Uzumaki was still tirelessly trying to enlighten Hiruzen Sarutobi, acting as a teacher.

"Don't the young people in the village all get along very well?"

“That’s true.” Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded in agreement.

The arrogant Uchiha and the lazy Nara, the impetuous Inuzuka and the silent Aburame.

Regardless of their relationship with each other, the ninja clan members quickly became acquainted under Isogen's powerful guidance.

Konoha has been established for over thirty years. Although it has experienced two large-scale wars, many of the original elders have survived.

Having all lived through the chaotic era of ninja clan wars, the hatred between them was as tangled and intertwined as a tangled thread, impossible to unravel or break.

As time went by, it was passed on to the next generation.

The most typical examples are the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

We still don't get along.

During the chaotic era, the Uchiha clans were known for their exhilarating battles, constantly fighting one clan after another. Over the millennia, various ninja clans in the ninja world rose and fell, appeared and disappeared, with only the Senju clan able to maintain a close relationship with the Uchiha.

If it weren't for the consensus reached between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha to establish Konoha, and Madara Uchiha's subsequent failure to retaliate against Hashirama Senju, other ninja villages would have suffered even more bullying from Konoha.

While Igogami's antics were indeed somewhat unfriendly to some, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt that trading this unfriendliness for a further breakthrough in relations between the various ninja clans and an increase in Konoha's fighting strength was a worthwhile trade.

The villagers will suffer a bit, but the benefits and reputation of the village's improved strength will be borne by themselves.

Insults?

The village's strength has increased, the ninja clans' relations have improved, and I have achieved great success. Where does the bad reputation come from?

If there is any, it's also a group of secret agents.

After shooing away the monkeys, a helpless yet kind smile appeared on Mito Uzumaki's face, and her thin, dry hand gently covered Isogen's smooth forehead like a feather.

"You're such a naughty troublemaker."

Being naughty is good.

Her eyes were gentle, as if urging Isogen to be a little more mischievous.

Mito Uzumaki has seen, experienced, and learned a great deal.

At her level, for her, letting children of this age happily be naughty and mischievous is the most appropriate thing to do.

The original intention of those two people in establishing Konoha was to protect children's childhood and allow people to bloom with smiles from the bottom of their hearts.

Unfortunately, even with the establishment of the five great ninja villages, the ninja world remained the same cruel ninja world, and the war never ended; it was just waiting for the next point of outbreak.

Children are often taught from a young age to protect the village, protect the villagers, become heroes, become Hokage, and lead the ninja village to continue to climb higher.

In this atmosphere, children often neglect the most important and deserving people around them.

Only when the other person is in danger and is overwhelmed with regret and grief will they suddenly realize their mistake.

She thought the fifty strings were very well done.

They value and protect those close to them, and they have no shortage of empathy for the vulnerable.

The business environment in Konoha has greatly improved after the reforms of the police department and the addition of Isogen. She has seen all of this and the Anbu also reports to her on a daily basis.

Ok?

And you even casually flicked the fifty strings away?

So what?

You can't beat a kid and you still think you're right?

He's still a student!

Isogen quietly savored the peace and tranquility that Mito Uzumaki was experiencing at that moment.

The all-around enhancement brought by the Yin-Yang attribute allowed him to vaguely sense Mizuto Uzumaki's feelings.

While not as sharp as Kagura's, it's sufficient.

"Grandma is biased. She's never been this nice to me, even though this kid caused such a big mess."

An inappropriate murmur came from Tsunade's direction.

Mizuto Uzumaki didn't even lift his eyelids.

What's wrong with this?

The Hyuga clan must be so arrogant they'll be practically touching the ceiling. If they don't get a beating, they'll be waiting until the New Year.

Moreover, although the commotion caused by Ren Yuge's play was considerable, it also brought benefits to Konoha. The young disciples of various ninja clans got to know each other, became familiar with each other, and cultivated tacit understanding for the future.

What about you?

What good did the little tricks you learned from your 'prematurely deceased' grandfather bring to Konoha?

Oh, it's generated revenue for Konoha's casinos.

"Get back to your room and read. This old woman doesn't want to see you right now."

Tsunade was furious and stood up angrily: "Fine, I'll watch!"

Today I'm going to immerse myself in books and become a bookworm who only knows how to read and study, neglecting eating and sleeping, so that you people who are not good to me will regret it!

"Come down for dinner later. Yu Ge ordered takeout; it includes tender chicken, which you like."

"Hehe, I'm available whenever you call!"

She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Konoha is currently facing more than just Hiruzen Sarutobi and the Hyuga clan as headaches.

The patriarchs of the large and small ninja clans were at their wits' end watching their children bow their heads and admit their mistakes, yet refuse to change.

"You really don't know what pain is, do you?"

"And you!"

With her face painted with face paint, Inuzuka Satoru pointed a finger, glared, and cursed even the shinobi dogs that were shrinking into themselves.

Despite his small size, Inuzuka Satoru harbored great resentment.

"Our brother treats us so well, would we be human if we did nothing? That would be so disloyal!"

"I'll show you loyalty!"

"Awooo!"

Inuzuka Satoru's father grinned, showing his big teeth, and watched his son being lectured.

"You're still laughing!"

"Ahem, Wu." He spoke, his face instantly tensing.

“You were indeed too reckless this time. I heard that the child gave you a share of the money. How can you, as members of the Inuzuka family, be swayed by a little money? Tell me honestly, did you go because of the money?”

The man and the ninja dog shook their heads repeatedly, their eyes burning with an unknown flame: "No, it's Big Brother's charisma that attracted us to act on our own!"

He scratched his head, genuinely surprised that Inuzuka Satoru actually acknowledged that 'big brother,' even though according to his investigation, Isogen had given each of these kids a beating back then.

"Then what about that money?" the mother asked.

"My older brother said that we should be rewarded for our work. He may beat us, but as long as we did the work, we would still be rewarded."

"You can't just go and cause trouble at someone's doorstep for money." The father sighed and asked, "How much is it in total? See if you can pay them back. They earned all of this themselves."

Inuzuka Satoru carefully opened one hand.

"Fifty thousand? You all have that? That kid is really generous."

The two adults exchanged a glance and both agreed that Wu Shixian was generous.

Inuzuka Satoru waved his hands repeatedly: "No, it's not that little. This time, our eldest brother rewarded each of us with 300,000 yen."

"Pfft!" X2

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the mother's expression turned serious: "Why are you carrying so much money, little one? Here, Mom will keep it for you."

Returning to his room in a sullen mood, Inuzuka Satoru locked the door, and his tense face relaxed.

"Phew, luckily I was quick-witted." After taking out the cash hidden in the bookcase compartment, Inuzuka Satoru and his father smiled knowingly.

"..."

……

P.S.: Everyone, I got elbowed! Waaaaa (┯_┯)

I need comfort, more reading, and more monthly votes.

Chapter 79 Konoha's White Fang is going to rely on connections

Konoha 40.

In this year, the future Scorpion of the Sand Village graduated, Mitarashi Anko and the future two gatekeepers of Konoha were born, and Uzumaki Kushina and a student who regrettably failed to reach the top of Konoha Ninja Academy graduated.

This year, at the age of fifty, he is about to graduate and will not become a ninja.

"Lord Mito, you really have to advise him! With such good qualities, how can Yuge not become a ninja?!" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked older than he had two years ago, and he was extremely anxious.

Mito Uzumaki said calmly, "There's no rule that says you have to become a ninja just because you graduate from the Ninja Academy."

First of all, there is no mandatory requirement to become a ninja after graduating from the Ninja Academy. There are also tests for squads afterward, and those who fail the tests will be sent back to the Ninja Academy to repeat their studies.

You can also choose to give up voluntarily. The Ninja Academy does offer general education pathways, and after graduation, you can choose from various careers such as inheriting the family business, switching to administration, or teaching.

In this regard, unless there is a genuine lack of available personnel, ninja villages generally do not forcibly recruit graduates into the ninja ranks.

But the songs with fifty strings are different!

With his strength and talent, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't become a ninja?

Hiruzen Sarutobi was afraid that Tobirama-sensei would hear him and kick open his coffin lid in the middle of the night to settle scores with him!

"You know Yu Ge is special; he had mission experience even before graduating. So, does it matter whether he's in the ninja ranks or not?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless.

He wanted to say that this was really important!

Once you're in the ninja ranks, you're nominally supposed to obey the village and the Hokage's orders. Although he felt that forcibly conscripting Isogen wouldn't work given his personality, he could still appeal to his emotions.

If you can't even make it into the ninja ranks, then all you can do is beg.

No matter how much Hiruzen Sarutobi tried to persuade her, even until his throat was dry, Mito Uzumaki's attitude remained unwavering.

Since it's a matter for the child, let the child handle it themselves.

Seeing that Mito Uzumaki's attitude remained unchanged, Hiruzen Sarutobi could only walk away helplessly.

"Kid? Ha, whose kid is blowing things up everywhere? What kind of brat is this?"

Inside the sealed space, Kurama still didn't miss the chance to gnaw at Mito Uzumaki.

"That brat blew that one-eyed guy's stuff up the sky. You guys keep talking about friendship and bonds, aren't you going to do anything about this?"

Kyuubi was not convinced.

You ignore this dangerous creature, but you travel thousands of miles to catch me, a perfectly fine fox who's just lazing around and sleeping soundly in the mountains.

Foxes have no human rights!
