Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

"So your name is Nawaki. With your strength, you must be quite famous in the ninja world."

"I will make sure all the people of Loulan remember your kindness."

"..."

"I was just joking." Seeing that he was about to become the villain, Nawaki hurriedly explained, scratching his head awkwardly.

"This joking ninja is called Nawaki. He is from the Senju clan of Konoha Village, the younger brother of Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, and a special Jonin of the village."

"I see. Then I'll have to take notes..."

"Wait, wait! I was wrong! I promise I'll bring Honglian's family back, okay? Stop slandering me, I'm really a good person, sob sob sob—" Nawaki's heart ached as he thought about how he had caused a family and a country to become homeless.

"Heh." Shirahoshi glanced at Nawaki's state and thought to herself that the other party should be willing to cooperate with the experiment.

Once the follow-up matters are settled, we can begin the new research project.

Can't wait!

The fact that he doesn't exist in the future world of Centipede is most likely due to the parallel universe.

after all.

If there are records of Loulan in the future, why didn't Konoha Village record any information about the Centipede's appearance in Loulan?

Minato Namikaze's memory seal? Could it also seal the Third Hokage, who's far away in the Hokage Building?

It's worth noting that in the original story, spies had already learned about Loulan's specific details, and Minato knew the name "Centipede" when he accepted the mission.

These historical events could not have been completely unrecorded; the only record is of the water gate sealing the dragon vein.

Furthermore, Minato could seal the Nine-Tails' memories inside Naruto's stomach?

There's also Urashiki Otsutsuki from Boruto, who travels back to Naruto's childhood.

Whether it's Jiraiya's strength or the various strange Otsutsuki elbow strikes and Uchiha slams... Shirahoshi thinks a parallel world is more reasonable.

As we gradually develop the Dragon Vein and research the Gate to the World, it may not be limited to the Naruto world. However, this research will have to wait until Naruto and his friends arrive in the future.

Currently, the main focus is on researching how energy is used, and developing transportation, housing, electronic equipment, and other technologies specific to modern cities to expand their economic power.

......

In the days that followed, Shirahoshi mostly buried himself in the laboratory of a tall tower somewhere in the center, studying the energy of the Dragon Vein Chakra: created by An Lushan.

After resting for two or three days, Nawaki and Guren chose to leave in a hurry, but they encountered Yahiko and Nagato on the way.

After thinking for a moment, Nawaki felt that Yahiko and Nagato were of higher status than him, so he talked about some of the organization's future plans.

"What! The Dean has taken the Queen and her daughter and is now the Emperor of Loulan?"

Honglian: "Ugh...ugh..."

Rope Tree picked up Red Lotus, pressed his hand to her mouth, a wicked grin spreading across his face beneath his mask, and nodded slightly.

"Yes!"

"Loulan has now become our organization's official base."

"By the way, you guys seem to be doing quite well in the Chamber of Commerce these past six months, huh? You've all got custom-made code backpacks and clothes?" Nawaki asked, noticing Yahiko and Nagato's backpacks and clothes.

"It's alright. We just got lucky, thanks to the Dean's knowledge." Yahiko scratched his head modestly. "Compared to the Dean's ability to take down the Queen and her daughter from the ancient Loulan Kingdom in one fell swoop, I'm really envious... I envy the Dean's strength!"

Nagato glanced at Yahiko, thinking to himself that Yahiko seemed to have become corrupted as soon as he got rich, and that he had developed more wicked thoughts in his business activities: "Don't forget your original intentions, Yahiko."

"Don't worry, Nagato. I only do that occasionally, occasionally for social occasions." Yahiko rubbed his nose. Nagato thought to himself, "It's precisely because of you that Konan decided to open a shop in Konoha to promote it, and also quietly become a ninja chef."

"But where are you headed now? Do you need our help?"

"We are going to the Land of Fields to bring Honglian's parents to Loulan."

"I see..." Yahiko felt a little disappointed. He thought the Dean would take them to enjoy a life of luxury right away... Yahiko subconsciously shook his head, thinking that they had worked hard for the peace of the Land of Rain and had not yet gained the Dean's approval, so naturally they could not relax!

"However, the dean would be very happy to know that you have successfully established the Chamber of Commerce."

"How about I discuss the specifics with the dean later?"

"No! Please don't! We can't afford to lose face like that." Yahiko felt his income was far too low and quickly waved his hand, "Let's wait until our chamber of commerce has reached the dean's ears before telling him."

"Earning a minimum of ten million a year is really too little now."

"Yes. Compared to the Dean and her daughter... ugh! Compared to conquering the ancient Loulan Kingdom, we're far behind. It's all Yahiko's fault; I said the wrong thing too." Nagato finished speaking, giving Yahiko a disgruntled look. Yahiko retorted, "What does it have to do with me? You're clearly envious too, Nagato~~"

"I...I didn't!"

Rope Tree: "??????"

Although the mother-daughter flower story was made up by him, your ten million doesn't sound like a lie at all!

"Your chamber of commerce already has revenue?"

"Yes. Currently, dividends are paid out quarterly. We have already received more than six million yuan in this period. The money for the next quarter will be deposited directly into our chamber of commerce account in the bank."

After Yahiko finished speaking, he cracked his knuckles, ignoring the stunned Guren and Nawaki, and continued:

"This point."

"The next three million should have arrived by now."

"It's all small change. We also have to make various investments in research and development, which is a huge hassle."

"..."x2

Rope Tree and Red Lotus exchanged a glance, thinking to themselves that the dean/teacher absolutely could not find out about this, or it would definitely cause an uproar.

—Bai Xing once said on the way that he didn't have high hopes for Nagato and his group, and that they should learn a lesson first. He said that once they were in debt, they would work twice as hard. When they completed their next step of the plan, such as finding a base and developing it, they could come and find something to do.

Take a look now.

Not only did they succeed, they also earn over ten million yuan a year without having to work...

"By the way, our share is in Fire Coins. This means that whenever we need money, we have to go to the black market money exchange in the Land of Rain to exchange it, and the exchange rate there is terrible."

"I wish the Land of Rain would have a proper bank someday. Sigh."

More than ten million Fire Coins.

Yahiko's words caused Nawaki and Guren to exchange another glance, understanding each other's meaning.

—You absolutely mustn't tell the dean!!!

Chapter 118 Konoha Rogue Ninja, Sunagakure Visiting Team

In desert areas, the one thing that is never lacking is endless yellow sand.

After a period of fermentation, the Loulan Kingdom incident saw the reappearance of the Loulan Queen, and the news of the death of An Lushan, a high-ranking official of the Loulan Kingdom, due to illness also spread at this time.

Merchants were more concerned with whether the ancient kingdom of Loulan could increase their profits, while the local daimyo of the Wind Kingdom was concerned with whether the ancient kingdom of Loulan could fulfill its quarterly tax payment obligations... Only one place valued weapons and equipment.

Sand Hidden Village.

This great ninja village, which belongs to the power that protects the Land of Wind, was both uneasy and terrified upon learning this news.

In order to acquire the technology of the centipede, Sunagakure went to great lengths, placing a large order for military weapons and purchasing a large amount of puppet materials.

The results of it.

Centipede was hiding something; he didn't bring out anything real, only materials that they could make themselves.

However, the centipede was delivered a little faster, and the material costs in the village were also reduced slightly.

and so.

Sunagakure had long wanted to eliminate Centipede and acquire the puppet technology of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, but they had never had the opportunity.

At this time, no country knew about the Dragon Vein Chakra.

The reason why the request from Centipede Village was made not by the nearest village, Sunagakure, but by the more distant Konoha Village is quite clear.

Furthermore, why wait six years before taking action?

because.

The early economic development of the ancient Loulan Kingdom was inextricably linked to the influence of the Kingdom of Wind.

Furthermore, after the severing of contact, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind is worried that the Sand Village will obtain the puppet technology, and then he may not be able to suppress the power of the Sand Village.

Therefore, the neighboring Konoha Village is the best place to request a job.

After conquering the Centipede Kingdom, they then took control of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, a small city that could bring them wealth and prosperity.

But Da Ming never expected that, due to the closure of the dragon vein, the core of the prosperous city of Loulan would lose its energy, and its magnificent appearance and inner workings would eventually turn into a handful of yellow sand in the desert.

"Centipede".

"Someone who seems to have connections to Sunagakure has actually been defeated?"

"No."

"This is the Land of Wind."

"This is our Sunagakure ninja's home ground."

"Somebody come!"

call out--

An ANBU ninja, wearing a distinctive light yellow assassination uniform and an animal mask, appeared in the Kazekage's office, behind the Third Kazekage: At this moment, the Third Kazekage had finished reading the report and was looking out the window at the village.

"Kazekage-sama."

"Yes, Rasa. You are one of my most trusted subordinates. For this mission, you will travel to the ancient kingdom of Loulan as a regular Jonin, along with Karura and Yekura. Be sure to investigate the current situation of the high-ranking forces in the ancient kingdom of Loulan."

"As for the title..."

"We will proceed with further discussions based on the puppet material cooperation agreement that was previously terminated by Minister An Lushan, no, by the decision of Centipede."

"Let's see if we can get any information out of the Queen."

"If that's not possible, then try to find out An Lushan's whereabouts. Obtaining his body would also be acceptable."

"Yes!" The red-haired Luo Sha bowed in response and prepared to leave.

Then, the Third Kazekage remembered something and added:

"Wait a moment."
