Chapter 79 Unified Funds

During this time, he had heard a lot of things, especially after being ambushed by Root ninjas several times. He learned from them that the Uchiha clan was destroyed because the Uchiha were inherently evil.

But now that these other ninja clans have revealed their ugly side, how are they any different from the Uchiha clans once they possess power?

Sasuke sneered inwardly.

In his view, Konoha was definitely not a place to stay for long if things continued like this.

You must have your own small group to avoid being left behind in the cycle of reincarnation and to keep getting stronger.

"Sasuke-kun!"

Sakura Haruno looked touched, never expecting that the usually cold-hearted Sasuke would consider her feelings.

Sasuke said coldly, "Don't misunderstand, I just don't want anyone to hold me back."

He only had revenge in his heart and never thought about love.

The more Sakura Haruno acted like a lovesick girl, the more annoyed he became. If she could demonstrate the ability to stand on her own, he might start to see her in a different light.

Asma took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Merchant, we want to buy them all."

Ten trial tokens, each granting one of ten chances to become a player.

The purpose of the quest scroll is currently unclear, but the rule-based items in the hands of merchants are definitely of high quality, although the prices are quite exorbitant.

"no problem."

Fang Yi never refuses requests to book out entire venues.

"Please wait a moment."

Asma bowed slightly, then quickly left.

Unlike other ninja villages, although he is the captain of the game, he doesn't have many reward points at his disposal, and he has to consult with the Hokage's higher-ups on all decisions.

He arrived at the Hokage Building quickly.

Seated behind a large desk, wearing a straw hat, Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled slightly upon seeing the visitor and said, "Asuma, how did your meeting with Mr. Fang Yi go?"

Asuma nodded and said, "The businessman is very approachable and has a very good impression of Konoha."

Is there any possibility of winning them over?

This is a question that Hiruzen Sarutobi is particularly concerned about.

If we could win over this mysterious merchant and have him stay in Konoha, his amazing equipment and abilities would definitely make the village the overlord of the ninja world.

Asma shook his head and said, "I haven't asked, so it's unlikely."

He held absolutely no hope of winning over Fang Yi.

Even now, the Naruto leadership still regards the game merchant as a representative of a powerful force from another world, possessing all sorts of magical items and tools.

No matter how you explain it, you can't change their minds.

Only by becoming a player can one understand the true situation. The game of reincarnation constantly reveals a power capable of overturning the world.

The game merchants who orchestrated all of this, like the legendary gods, wield power of equal caliber.

Asma smiled bitterly to himself.

Konoha simply doesn't have enough valuable assets to offer in order to win over such a powerful entity.

Recalling the fleeting glimpse of the other person's youthful face in the crystal ball, Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, "The position of high-level advisor—is a marriage alliance possible?"

If a marriage alliance is to be formed, the family must be a prominent and respected family in the village.

The Hyuga family's daughter is of a barely acceptable age, but that would allow the Hyuga family to grow too powerful.

Tsunade?

With perfect looks and figure, born into a wealthy family, he was once a top noble in Konoha, but his age is just a little too young.

"That probably won't work."

Asma shook his head and explained his intention to use funds to purchase trial tokens.

He didn't dare keep the game merchants waiting too long.

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly and asked, "Does the Trial Token guarantee the user's player qualification?"

The Konoha Game Squad only has a few hundred members at most, so having ten more players would definitely be a good thing.

Five thousand reward points.

Although expensive, the village now has around 130,000 reward points in assets available through hunting corrupted monsters in the game and auctioning off a Ghost Iron Mine.

It can be used to purchase trial tokens.

Asma shook his head and said truthfully, "What the merchant means is that only by passing the trials can one obtain the qualification for the game, and the difficulty of the trials..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback, then sighed, "The Samsara Game is great in every way, except it's too expensive."

If it weren't for Fang Yi's ability to suddenly reverse his ninjutsu and use the telescope technique to accurately capture the Hokage Building, he would have directly accused the other party of being greedy for money.

Upon hearing that there was a possibility of failure, Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated, not wanting to waste his reward points on buying tokens.

"We can't skimp on this money."

Asuma said firmly.

Every faction with even a little bit of resources is trying its best to turn its elites into players and participate in the cycle of reincarnation.

Right now, there are ten trial tokens in front of me. Once I pass the trial, I can become a player. I absolutely cannot give up this opportunity, even if there is a possibility of failure.

Hiruzen Sarutobi countered, "What about the silver materials?"

He actually wanted to establish a clan more than to become a player.

With the help of the Yugi clan and the Sarutobi clan's vast manpower and financial support, he will further consolidate his control over the village and suppress the arrogant ninja clan.

The inferior family token dropped by Asma requires a full twenty [Salina Hearts] to open.

Thanks to Naruto's incredible luck, we only need five more hearts to unlock the clan token. We'll save our 100,000 reward points to buy silver materials.

Asuma said calmly, "All the funds of the ninja clans will be handed over to the village for unified management."

These are the applications he keeps submitting.

However, his proposal was consistently rejected by the Hokage and senior advisors, and he was severely reprimanded.

Because of this, Asuma, the son of the Hokage, is now treated much like the Uchiha were back then, isolated and looked at with strange eyes.

These are some tactics employed by the ninja clans to discourage him from making a move.

Hiruzen Sarutobi paused for a moment, then said, "Asuma, this is not a time of war."

Unifying the funds of all ninja clans was something that wasn't even possible during the war years.

Aside from ninja gods like the First Hokage who could suppress all ninja clans, ninja clans have always been an extremely difficult group to deal with in any other period.

The second Hokage's Anbu, ninja academies, and various policies were all subtly suppressing the ninja clans. Although they were effective, it was not yet time to truly reap the rewards.

Even the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, who are close to the Hokage lineage,

If they were to make the decision to pool their funds, they would quickly band together for mutual support and distance themselves from the Hokage.

Asuma said with a serious expression, "Father, war is coming soon. I don't believe that those forces are just trying to show off their players' strength during the Chunin Exams. They definitely want to take the opportunity to attack Konoha. We must prepare early."

Logistics players have already reported to me that the flow of materials within the game is intensifying, with major factions starting to buy up large quantities of low-level materials and potions.

This is not a normal situation.

Hiruzen Sarutobi inhaled the last bit of tobacco, exhaled slowly, and asked, "Have you thought about the consequences?"

Even Sakumo Hatake, who intimidated the Sannin, was isolated and criticized by the entire village back then, and the shadow of the ninja clan was inevitably behind him.

The failure of that secret mission caused considerable losses to both the village and the ninja clan.

Compared to that, the approach of unifying funds is even better.

What will happen to Asma, who proposed this idea?

"It's just death."

Asuma answered without hesitation, as if he had been prepared for this all along.

Brothers, after reading everyone's comments, does everyone dislike the protagonist pulling people off the field? If so, I won't include these kinds of things after I finish writing my drafts.
