The frustrated boss never expected to encounter such a freak as Naruto.

You can't drive Naruto away with words, and you might even get beaten up. As for taking action, you might end up in jail.

Left with no other option, the frustrated boss sought help from the police department.

This land is under the jurisdiction of the police department, but under the warning of the Third Hokage and the order of Fugaku, the police department dares not interfere with Naruto's affairs.

They refused to do it, and even issued warnings to the shop owner...

Get lost! Don't try to scam us, or we'll arrest you.

The fox demon has a deep background...

Nishimura was once again convinced of this truth, and felt that Konoha was truly too dark.

Just as Nishimura was feeling disheartened and about to leave.

One of the Uchiha clan members suggested, "For certain reasons, it's not convenient for our police department to get involved, but I suggest you go directly to the Hokage..."

Upon hearing this, Nishimura outwardly agreed, but inwardly he cursed.

The Uchiha clan members are indeed all extremely wicked; they actually harmed him for no reason.

Putting aside whether he could even meet the Hokage given his status, even if he could, what difference would it make?

Almost everyone knows that Naruto's arrogance is entirely due to the protection of the Anbu, which is directly under the Hokage's command.

So, do we even need to say who Naruto's biggest backer is?

Going to the Hokage for help is practically suicide.

This reveals Nishimura's dark side...

Although the third generation has many flaws, they are not too bad to the villagers and are still considered reliable.

Before Nishimura could even speak, the Third Hokage approached Naruto and urged him to be kind and let the man go.

Naruto scoffed.

Stop pretending to be a big shot. If I let him go, who will let me go? And ultimately, this matter is due to your inaction as the Third Hokage, allowing rumors to arise and spread.

None of this would have happened without the rumors.

"If I repay evil with kindness, how will I repay kindness? My demands aren't high. As long as he apologizes to me and promises to treat me like a normal customer from now on, I'll leave immediately."

Are the requirements high?

Three generations asked themselves honestly...

The demands are minimal; a verbal apology is all it takes. It's just normal business; the grocery store suffered no loss.

But it's meaningless.

They may verbally agree, but they are not convinced in their hearts. There are many people in Konoha who hate Naruto, so forcing Nishimura to apologize is useless.

On the contrary, it might incite resentment among others, making them dislike Naruto even more.

"It doesn't matter. To me, 99 and 100 make no difference."

"Naruto, you'll never make any friends like this."

"People who don't care and are bound by prejudice don't deserve to be my friends."

The third generation felt a headache after hearing this.

How can you not care? If things continue like this... how can you shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the village?

……

After sitting on the job for over a month, when Naruto had meticulously crafted a presentable wife, Nishimura finally knelt down in admiration.

He was a middle-aged man with elderly parents and young children to support; his entire family depended on this grocery store for their livelihood.

It's foolish to ruin your livelihood just because of personal likes or dislikes.

"I'm sorry, I'll never do it again. From now on, I'll give you a 50% discount on everything you buy at my store. Please forgive me." Nishimura handed over a stack of banknotes with both hands, kneeling down in humiliation before the three-year-old child and begging for forgiveness.

Fortunately, it was inside a general store, and no one else saw him, otherwise he would have no face to live in Konoha afterward.

Naruto's eyes lit up. He took the banknotes and quickly counted them: one thousand taels, enough for two months' living expenses.

I accept your sincerity.

With the money tucked into his pocket, Naruto patted his shoulder with his small hand and said with satisfaction, "It's great that you know you've made a mistake and can correct it. I'm being magnanimous this time and I forgive you. I hope you won't do it again."

Yes, yes, yes, brother, whatever you say is right, let's go quickly.

Nishimura nodded repeatedly in agreement, eager to get rid of the plague as soon as possible.

The moment the plague god left, Nishimura breathed a long sigh of relief.

Thirty seconds later, he looked at Naruto, who had returned, with a blank expression.

Naruto explained, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not backing out. I just want to do business with you."

I don't want to do business with you, I just want you to get lost.

Ignoring Nishimura's dismissive expression, Naruto continued, "Do you have any business enemies? Do you need me to go sit outside their shop for you?"

Wait a minute! This business deal... seems like something I could consider.

By the way, Noguchi has been incredibly arrogant lately, constantly mocking Nishimura for not being able to beat a three-year-old kid, making Nishimura lose face on social media.

Now that we have the opportunity, it's a good chance for him to experience the pain I've suffered.

"that……"

Nishimura opened his mouth as if to speak, but then, remembering Naruto's infamous reputation, he quickly shut his mouth.

Colluding with the demon fox to harm others is too sensitive a matter; Nishimura doesn't trust Naruto.

If it gets leaked, he'll be close to social death.

Seeing this, Naruto frowned, pondered for a moment, and seemed to understand something. He then raised his hand and said solemnly.

"I swear by my most respected grandfathers of three generations, if I leak this secret, may I be struck by lightning and never be reincarnated."

……

In the end, Nishimura could not suppress his hatred for his enemy and took out a thousand ryo to ask Naruto to cause trouble.

Okay, now they've turned into the mafia...

Thus, Naruto embarked on a path he had never imagined.

—Two weeks later—

As expected, Noguchi, whom Nishimura had asked Naruto to take revenge on, also knelt down and apologized to Naruto, paying him money in return.

After receiving the money, Naruto used the same trick again, slightly altering the words he had spoken to Nishimura and telling them to Noguchi.

Noguchi suddenly realized, "So it was Nishimura who sent you."

Exposing one's employer is not allowed, Naruto argued, "No..."

Noguchi waved his hand and said, "No need to say anything. I've been fighting with Nishimura for decades. I know what kind of person he is. He's petty... Tell me how much he paid you. I'll give you double. You can go back to sitting in front of his shop."

"But this isn't about money..."

"three times!"

Naruto shook his head and said, "I refuse! I've already said it's not about money. My feud with Nishimura is over. We have no grudges now, so I can't just attack him."

In addition, one should have a long-term vision when doing business.

Turning your back on your employer is strictly prohibited in the ninja world; once your reputation is ruined, you'll never get any more orders.

Aside from his arch-rival Nishimura, Noguchi dislikes the clothing store owner on the next street the most.

That bastard sold him counterfeit goods last week and he's been refusing to admit it. It's infuriating!

This is a thousand taels, you little devil, get rid of him.

Naruto accepted the order.

The clothing store had also tried to drive him away, so it was a potential target.

But having learned from the two previous mistakes, the clothing store owner quickly backed down, surrendering in less than a week and offering Naruto a thousand taels in compensation.

But after Naruto revealed that he could do business with him, he offered Naruto a reward of a thousand taels of silver and asked him to cause trouble at the clothing store across the street.

With three precedents to follow, clothing stores will be even more likely to fail.

But unfortunately...

This guy is a coward; he's too scared to do business with Naruto.

Naruto expressed his deep regret.

But it doesn't matter!

Naruto has found his own ninja way!
