Chapter 100 Tsunade: How Can We Lose a Game Like This? (Third Update)
Hearing Tsunade say that,
Mikami Yu hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Well, Tsunade's net worth must indeed be quite substantial.
After all, she was the princess of the Senju clan and inherited a portion of the Uzumaki clan's legacy. In addition, as a Kage-level shinobi of Konoha, she had carried out over a thousand missions, half of which were A-rank or higher. Her commissions must have been several Asuma's.
But she probably already gambled all that money away at the casino.
At this point, Tsunade might have Hiruzen Sarutobi and Jiraiya backing her up, plus some creditors who used IOUs as medical insurance cards and were willing to lend her money, which is why she was able to pretend to be a tycoon in front of him.
But...
"Lady Tsunade, are you sure you don't want a share? It may not be obvious now, but it could be a great fortune in the future."
Yu Mikami asked another question.
"Pshaw, how big can it be? Can you really earn 200,000 taels a month?"
Tsunade scoffed and waved her hand casually: "Even two hundred thousand taels is just the reward for a mere B-rank mission. It's not enough for me to gamble... cough cough."
She clearly meant to say, "That's not enough for a single round at the casino," but then remembered that the two people in front of her were still children, so she stopped herself to avoid influencing the values of the teenagers.
However, Yu Mikami chimed in, "Lady Tsunade, how about we make a bet?"
"bet?"
Upon hearing this word, Tsunade immediately perked up: "How do we bet?"
"Let's bet on whether 'Konoha Cola' can achieve a monthly net profit of over 200,000 taels within six months."
Mikami Yu smiled and said, "If it exceeds 200,000 taels, I'll consider it a win. In that case, I can make a reasonable request of you, such as learning one of your secret techniques. Conversely, if you win, you can also make a request of me."
"how?"
"..."
Tsunade narrowed her eyes.
She wasn't some pampered young lady from a wealthy family who was oblivious to the realities of life. Although she had been living a life of leisure for the past few years, spending most of her time going back and forth between home and the casino and not paying much attention to outside developments, she still had some understanding of the basic prices in Konoha Village and even the Five Great Nations.
Take the two most popular restaurants in the village, Ichiraku Ramen and Yakiniku Q, for example. Their monthly turnover is only a few hundred thousand taels. Even if we take a 30% profit margin, it would still be hard to reach two hundred thousand taels.
If Yu Mikami gives a timeframe of one or two years, then Tsunade might have to hesitate.
but……
Half a year?
Do you think doing business is that easy?
Putting everything else aside, just getting the recipe approved and choosing store locations—these mundane tasks alone would take one or two months, and Mikami Tajima isn't even out of the hospital yet. Four months at most, and you think a single sweet drink can beat established ramen chains like Ichiraku Ramen and Yakiniku Q? That's pure fantasy!
It's true that Tsunade has bad luck with gambling, but to lose a game where she's practically facing a dragon...
She immediately ate the recipe in front of her!
“Good! I’m sorry!”
Tsunade immediately slammed her hand on the table, her gaze sweeping over Mikami Yuu from head to toe. Then she licked her lips, giving him a look that said, "I've got you cornered."
"I won't take advantage of you. I'll start working on the formula this afternoon, and once it's improved, I'll have Shizune deliver it to you as soon as possible. If you're not in the village by then, I'll go directly to Mikami Tajima... But don't worry, you're definitely going to lose, so don't try to renege on your promise."
"Each each other."
Yu Mikami said.
At this point, both matters have been discussed.
After exchanging a few more polite words, Mikami Yu got up to take his leave.
Nohara Rin also ended her quiet conversation with Shizune and turned her head: "Are you leaving, Yu-kun? Goodbye, Shizune-neechan. I'll come to visit you and Tsunade-sama again when I have time."
At this time.
Tsunade hesitated for a moment, then suddenly called out to them, saying coldly, "Hey, you two, be careful lately... don't die."
"?"
Yu Mikami was taken aback.
Nohara Rin also looked confused.
"...I heard there will be some major military movements in the village recently, which may affect your whereabouts for a while. I don't know the specifics either. You can ask Minato when he gets back."
Tsunade said something casually, then turned and went inside with the "raw cola" recipe.
Leave the room silent to help see the guests off.
Yu Mikami and Nohara suppressed their doubts: "Let's go back first, Rin. This scroll of the Palm Healing Technique has a lot of content. Do you want to come to my house tonight and copy it together? If we miss anything, we can remind each other."
"Oh? Oh! Of course!"
Rin Nohara snapped out of her daze and nodded vigorously, her clear eyes sparkling with excitement. "Yu-kun, we have to do our best! We must learn the Healing Palm Technique! And the Super Strength Technique that Lady Tsunade used just now... it was so amazing!"
"Ah."
After leaving the Senju clan's territory.
Yu Mikami and Rin Nohara went to a ninja tool shop together and bought two blank scrolls to replenish the ninja tools they had used up recently.
For the past six months, prices at Konoha's ninja tool shops have remained high due to the war, only recently dropping slightly after Konoha's military victory over Sunagakure.
However, Yu Mikami knew that the current victory was just a halftime break, and Sunagakure would make a comeback. He also knew when Iwagakure and Kumogakure might launch a surprise attack on Konoha. Therefore, he had to buy more and stock up while the prices were low.
on the way home.
Obito appeared as expected.
This guy now understands that he's not cut out for medical ninjutsu and can't join the advanced medical class with Mikami Yu and Nohara Rin. So, he can only take advantage of this moment to excitedly chatter behind them, boasting about his recent progress in training.
of course……
This progress seemed unremarkable compared to Yu Mikami.
After all, Obito is now completely overshadowed by Yu Mikami, making his position in the team rather awkward. Yu Mikami knows all the Fire Release techniques he knows, and uses them even better; while Obito doesn't know the swordsmanship, Water Release, or even the Eight Gates that Yu Mikami knows.
but……
Considering that his first Fire Release technique, "Great Fireball," was taken from Obito, Yu Mikami forgave Obito.
"By the way, Rin, have you seen Kakashi recently?"
Obito seemed to remember something and suddenly asked, "I asked him to train with me last time, but he refused, saying he was busy developing new techniques and didn't have time to play with me... It really annoyed me! That guy really treats me like a child!"
"New technique?"
Nohara Rin blinked, a little curious.
Yu Mikami, however, understood perfectly: it seemed that Kakashi's "Chidori" was about to be unveiled.
Chapter 101 Homemade Skin! Returning with Minato Namikaze! (First Update)
Yu Mikami didn't know the exact time when Kakashi developed "Chidori," as it wasn't mentioned in the original work. However, it was definitely before the Kannabi Bridge incident, so its appearance at this time is reasonable.
It's a pity he doesn't have the lightning attribute, otherwise he could have copied it.
At the crossroads in the civilian district, Obito reluctantly bid farewell to Rin Nohara and Yu Mikami before heading back to the Uchiha clan's territory.
That afternoon.
Yu Mikami went to Orochimaru's place again and, as usual, spent half a day doing experiments for him.
Because the agreed-upon "payment date" hadn't arrived yet, Orochimaru didn't give Mikami Yu anything this time. He just focused intently on his research, his eyes gleaming with an almost pathological light.
That evening, Nohara Rin knocked on the Mikami family's door, greeted Mikami Aoi with a smile, and then went to Mikami Yu's room.
The two of them hunched over the desk and spent an hour or two copying half of the contents of the "Palm Immortal Technique" scroll.
"Wow, there are so many words..."
Yu Mikami stretched his wrists, which were sore from writing, and suggested that they continue copying tomorrow. Rin Nohara readily agreed.
After she put away the scroll and left, Mikami Yu stretched and started to communicate with the ninja girls in the corner system while preparing to take a bath and rest.
……
The next day.
Mikami Yu and Nohara Rin spent almost another day finally finishing copying the "Palm Immortal Technique." They even painstakingly copied down the several human anatomy diagrams on it. During this time, Mikami Yu considered creating several water clones to help, but he was afraid that the water clones would get the scroll wet, so he had to give up.
Hmm... it seems I still need to learn "Shadow Clone Technique".
It just so happens that Mikami Yu has also increased his physique by 2-30 points thanks to the Corner System. Although his chakra reserves can't compare to the monsters like the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans with their massive chakra, they are comparable to, or even surpass, those of ordinary ninja clan members. This is enough for him to learn Shadow Clone Technique.
Whether used as free labor to help with tasks or as a cultivation accelerator that doubles the speed, it will come in handy.
You can go directly to Minato Namikaze for this; presumably, as long as you state your needs, he will be very willing to teach you.
After the transcription is completed.
Mikami Yu tried showing the copied scroll to the Ga La system for a look.
[Ding! Gift detected: Premium Limited Skin (Custom-made) - Healing Spell: Palm Spell!]
OK OK.
It seems that it can now be confirmed that the scrolls I copied can also be recognized as "skins". This is very good news.
There's no rush to give it away; we can talk about it later. Anyway, Mikami Yu can't openly use this ninjutsu for the time being.
Next.
Nohara Rin began to carefully study and comprehend the scroll and notes.
Yu Mikami then picked up his pen and paper again, pondered for a while, and began to write the business plan for "Konoha Cola".
how to say……
Even if he loses the bet with Tsunade, it's not a big deal, since the bet is just a requirement. Given Tsunade's character, she wouldn't ask him to do anything immoral or cross moral boundaries.
However, Yu Mikami did not want to lose.
Moreover, he was also considering the future of the Mikami family.
After all, being a ninja is a very expensive profession. Ninja tools alone are a continuous and large expense, not to mention the enormous amount of money required to conduct scientific research.
Now that Mikami Tajima has retired, the Mikami family can live off their savings and the disability pensions provided by the village for the short term. However, if they cannot find a way to increase income and reduce expenditure as soon as possible, Mikami Aoi's salary at the Konoha Library will only be enough to cover the family's food, clothing, and other expenses. Mikami Yu will have to solve all the other problems on his own.
Given that the social environment of the ninja world is different from that of Earth in the past, it is uncertain whether "Konoha Cola" can replicate the success of a certain cola in the past and become a hit product that sweeps Konoha and even the entire ninja world.
But Yu Mikami felt there was still a good chance.
present.
He went through all the ideas, from formula confidentiality measures to logistics construction and publicity and distribution, and wrote them down one by one.
Given the differences in social environment and technological level, many details will definitely need to be adjusted according to the actual situation during implementation.
However, these are matters for Mikami Tajima to discuss.
After all, the other party is a man in his thirties who has served as a ninja for over a decade, possessing basic experience and competence. Mikami Yu has already outlined the key ideas; even if there are discrepancies in actual implementation, it should be feasible, at least within the limited territory of Konoha.
……
Several days later.
Early that morning, Mikami Yu got up as usual, washed up and ate breakfast, and prepared to go to the training ground for some practice. But as soon as he stepped out, he saw a familiar figure appear not far away.
"...Kakashi?"
"Ah."
Kakashi nodded, his voice coming from beneath his mask: "Meet at Training Ground Seven in half an hour. Call Rin, I'll go inform Obito. Minato-sensei is back and has a new mission to discuss."
After Kakashi finished speaking, he didn't explain further. He turned around and left with a Body Flicker Technique, heading towards the Uchiha clan's residence.
Mikami Yuu stopped in his tracks, abandoned his original plan, and then turned around to knock on the door of the Nohara family next door.
soon.
The group of four arrived at the training ground.
