Chapter 357: Lao Sha's Way
White shirt, black suit, and a mink coat on top;
Wearing sunglasses, holding a cigar, he walked with a step that showed no regard for his relatives...
When a group of Sand Village ninjas appeared in front of everyone in a brand new image of suits and thugs, people from all the ninja villages couldn't help but feel a toothache.
"Aren't you hot dressed like this?"
"It's not hot, everything is to be on par with the boss!"
The answers from the Sand Village ninjas were exceptionally uniform and loud.
(ー ー゛)……
If they remembered correctly, the location of Sand Village should be in... the desert?!
In a place where the temperature can easily reach 50 or 60 degrees during the day, these Sand Village ninjas are still wrapped in minks...
What's wrong with your brain?!
Don't you want to live anymore?!
[What kind of charm does the newly appointed Kazekage have that can make these Sand Village ninjas so crazy in order to catch up with him? ]
This is what people who have never met Lao Sha think.
【Lao Sha... Awesome! 】
This is what people who have witnessed Lao Sha’s innate unique charm think.
As the boss of Baroque Studio in the One Piece world, Crocodile can be said to have enjoyed a second spring in his career in the Naruto world.
It can be said that most of the villagers in Sand Village have become fanatical followers of Old Sand in a short period of time.
After all, there are five social insurances and one housing fund, two days off on weekends, double overtime pay, custom-made work clothes, plenty of cigars, and free medical care for all...
After this combination of punches, every villager in the Sand Village shouted "The Fifth Kazekage is wise!"
Of course, Old Sand alone cannot carry out such drastic reforms on the entire Sand Village. There must be a mysterious financial backer behind him.
The reason why Lao Sha didn't come to the Hokage Village with his men at this moment was because he had already gone to the Akatsuki organization to meet his mysterious sponsor...
……
"Huh~ Kakuzu, business is tough over here lately..."
Lao Sha slowly exhaled a smoke ring and looked at his financial backer with a worried look on his face.
"What does your difficulty have to do with me? Anyway, you must pay me the money you owe me, not a penny less~"
"Can you please be a little more respectful to me?
In this world, only our Sand Village is willing to buy a large number of fake silver notes from you..."
"Tsk~ My fake banknotes never have trouble selling...
You should know that before I reached a cooperation agreement with you, I spent those fake banknotes as if they were real money!"
Lao Sha: (ー ー゛)...
Kakuzu couldn't refute what Old Sand said, because the large amount of fake silver notes he bought at a friendly price were finally used by him as real money to trade with people outside the Sand Village...
"That's true, but... you're still selling it too expensive."
Kakuzu: ＜(￣ ﹌ ￣)＞? !!
"Expensive? How expensive is that?!
The price has been the same for many years. If you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense.
Sometimes, look for the reasons in yourself..."
Lao Sha:?_?……
"Okay, stop talking. I know what you're going to say."
"You're not going to tell me if you want to?! I'm going to tell you anyway!
You hire a large number of people from outside the Sand Village to help you with development, construction and gold mining...
Then when you paid them their salary, you actually gave them fake silver notes made by me, and ordered them not to spend them in the Sand Village?!
Damn, do you know how many fake banknotes have flowed into the market during this period? !
The market economy of the ninja world is being messed up by unscrupulous idiots like you... Bah! Profligate businessman!"
Lao Sha: ?_?... Speaking of profiteers, who in the entire ninja world can compare to you, Kakuzu? !
"If it weren't for the fact that my fake banknotes were genuine, and if it weren't for me cleaning up your mess outside...you and your Sand Village would have been in a bad reputation in the ninja world a long time ago, don't you know that?!
Even so, you actually want to ask me to lower the price? !
...Do you believe me and I will publish the method to identify the fake banknotes I sold to you? !"
Kakuzu kept chattering on and on, criticizing the Fifth Kazekage for all his shortcomings, not daring to say another word.
Everyone in Akatsuki: (ー ー゛)...
"…Did you find out?"
"Well...these two guys are not good people. You should stay away from them in the future."
……
"Kakuzu, don't refuse so bluntly. Let's talk about it..."
"There's nothing to discuss! You want me to lower the price... Impossible!"
"I know a way to sell your fake banknotes in large quantities to Konoha..."
Lao Sha paused slightly here, glanced at Naruto with a subtle look, and when he saw that he had no extra expression, he continued.
“The risk is a little bit higher, but the benefits are still considerable.”
Kakuzu: (ー_ー)!!
"... Actually, it's not impossible to discuss it~
Come, tell me in detail about that path first..."
Naruto: (ー ー゛)…
What we are saying is, these two guys discussed how to harm his future father-in-law right in front of him... Is this really okay? !
"Cough cough~"
Naruto coughed twice, walked up to the two guys with an unhappy look on his face, and spoke in a low voice.
"Add me one!"
Everyone in Akatsuki: (ー_ー)!!
……
"A-choo~ Why do I feel like someone is plotting against me..."
Hinata Hiashi sneezed violently, and his whole body shuddered.
"Hokage-sama, stop joking. This should just be your illusion."
"……Maybe."
Hinata Hiashi rubbed the tip of his nose and looked at Gang Zitie who had spoken to comfort him.
"By the way, Gang Zitie, where did the cigars you and Shen Yue Chu Yun have in their mouths come from?"
"Oh, you're talking about this... This was sent by Old Sand to us from the Sand Village.
"Sniff~~~~~Huff~It tastes pretty good, Hokage-sama, would you like one?"
Gang Zitie extended a cordial invitation to Hinata Hiashi, but Hinata Hiashi smiled and waved his hand to refuse.
"No, you know I don't smoke."
Yes, Hinata Hiashi usually doesn't smoke.
But if you encounter unusual situations, such as...
When the future learned that Konoha's finances had inexplicably contained a large amount of fake silver bills, Hinata Hiashi smoked three packs a day and almost smoked himself to death in the Hokage's office...
……
At the same time, at the seaside of the Kingdom of Light.
A group of miserable Mist Village ninjas, led by Kimimaro, were pulling their pirate ship onto the beach.
"Speed up! Keep speeding up!
At this rate, by the time we get there, the place will have already left!"
"Captain, we are really out of energy...
Anyway, this place is not far from the new ninja village, why don’t we leave the boat here and walk slowly over there…”
"no!
Daddy said that a true Pirate King would never abandon his ship!
So... brothers, work harder~ We must bring our boat to the scene today!"
Ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village: (*?????)... Did you listen to what people say? !
[Godaime Mizukage, please take care of this little man you like (?w? )...]
Mei Terumi: (?′?`?)*??*~
