After reaching the contract, Xie also decided to stay in [Yanyin Village].
Be a 'tool man' honestly and strive to create a qualified 'giant puppet' as soon as possible.
Of course, ordinary puppets are easy to make.
It must be difficult to create a giant puppet like this that can carry [Susanoh].
Just in terms of principles, technology, materials, etc., there are many problems waiting to be overcome.
However, since Orochimaru is not specialized in puppetry, he can create a 'mechanical Nine-Tails' that is comparable to the Nine-Tails.
And Scorpion is already a puppet master.
It shouldn't be a big problem to make a qualified 'giant puppet'.
As for the initial funding issue, Natsume was also very generous.
Directly moved the scorpion to Orochimaru's side.
Let beloved Aunt Snake be responsible for the supply of initial research funds.
Come to think of it, Aunt She can independently build such a large underground base. He must be wealthy and not short of this little money.
What's more, he is probably also interested in making 'giant puppets', right?
Moreover, the two of them together can greatly increase the speed and shorten the development time.
All in all, it’s like killing multiple birds with one stone.
It is definitely not to save a little bit of pediatric research funds.
Who could be so petty?
Of course, if Scorpion really succeeds in creating the first qualified giant puppet.
When mass production begins later.
Natsume still doesn't mind investing more money to build the assembly line.
As for.
Natsume was not prepared to pay out of his own pocket for the money to exchange for the forbidden technique [Reincarnation] and the cost of consuming [Evil God Body] as a condition for resurrection.
The wool comes from the sheep.
Naturally, Scorpio will have to prepare the money by himself when the time comes.
After all, he is a puppet master.
Make money or something.
It shouldn't be a difficult thing for him, right?
The worst thing is to make more ordinary puppets and sell them!
You can always save enough...
…
Today is the third day after the Battle of Konoha.
Time has also quietly entered November.
Towards the end of the year, the temperature dropped sharply.
In Yanyin Village, many tribesmen also added a few extra pieces of clothing and began to pay attention to keeping warm.
Now, at dusk.
Natsume's house.
A group of people were gathering together, happily cooking a steaming pot of spicy hot pot.
As for the main course, of course it is the tender beef shipped from [Yunyin Village].
Plump and tender meat, coupled with spicy and hot soup.
It's really appetizing.
In a short time, several people were eating steaming hot food and dripping with sweat.
And began to take off his clothes, exposing his arms and continuing to fuck.
So much so that even Yue Ji, who had always been aloof, took off her coat, wore a tight vest, and fought for the meat slices boldly.
After more than an hour, dinner was finished.
The five of them all collapsed in the living room with their round bellies, enjoying the leisurely time after dinner.
The maid Nagano Nou is leading the new maid Yuhi Kurenai, who is quickly clearing the table.
…
Soon, after a short rest.
Everyone also started talking about business while drinking ice-cold watermelon juice and sake.
Although, at present, various people's livelihood matters in [Yanyin Village] seem to be coordinated by the [Elders Group].
However, the core power level of the entire village is still here.
Just like the second-generation Hokage Senju Tobirama's personal bodyguards later directly controlled the entire Konoha.
At this moment, Natsume's personal guards also have considerable power.
Uncle Teng, Yue Ji, Riyao... all take charge of various government affairs in the village.
Although the ANBU in the village has not been established yet. But that's just a matter of time.
As for Natsume himself, he is comparable to a dictator.
Has the highest leadership power of the entire village.
If he wasn't old enough, he wouldn't be able to truly inherit the position of patriarch. He no longer has to bear the title of 'young patriarch'.
Of course, as long as there is absolute strength and dominance.
The so-called position is just a false name...
Natsume: "Uncle Fuji, is there any news from [Shipping Company]? It's already more than a month later than expected. Is there any accident?"
Uchiha Takashi quickly explained:
"Yes! Yes, a storm raged at sea some time ago and lasted for more than half a month, which greatly hindered sea trade transportation..."
"However, the loss is not too great."
"Long also responded to the letter. It is estimated that the first batch of profits and goods will arrive in the village around the day after tomorrow..."
Natsume nodded, no longer worrying.
He specifically paid attention to the [shipping company], not just for the profits and repayments there.
After all, that is currently the only major source of profit for my village.
Moreover, I don’t have many gold coins on hand recently, so I really don’t feel safe!
It’s time to think about making money...
"What about other situations?"
"Information about the Konoha War should have spread throughout the ninja world, right?"
"What are the reactions from the hidden villages?"
"After knowing that [God of Ninja] Senju Hashirama is resurrected, they shouldn't be able to sit still, right?"
"suck--"
Natsume took a sip of watermelon juice and asked casually.
Ri Yao, who was responsible for collecting and organizing intelligence, immediately reported:
"Currently, the remaining four hidden villages have received mixed reactions."
"Among them, [Iwagakure Village] and [Sunagakure Village] immediately expressed goodwill towards Konoha and sent envoys, seemingly supporting [Konoha]."
"In addition, [Iwagakure Village] seems to have quietly sent another delegation, which is on its way to my village."
Natsume joked with a smile:
"Hedge your bets? Or is it a delaying strategy?"
"That old boy Onoki is so smooth! He's very good at calculating the abacus!"
"anything else?"
"[Cloud Hidden Village] issued a strong condemnation to [Fire Country] in the name of [Thunder Country], claiming that [Konoha]'s behavior of desecrating the dead is extremely bad and should be stopped immediately!"
Natsume: "Tsk. The fourth generation Raikage Ai is still the same tough guy!"
"Unless Senju Hashirama beats him down in front of him, he probably won't believe it."
Ri Yao: "Young Patriarch, over there at [Yunyin Village]..."
Natsume: "Don't worry, since [Kumo Hidden Village] has taken [Byakugan], they will definitely not spit it out. From this point alone, they will not reconcile with [Konoha]..."
"Not everyone can be as cunning as that old boy Onoki!"
"Where is [Mist Hidden Village]?"
Riyao: "After [Misty Hidden Village] received the news, they sent a second mission that night and are on their way to our village. They should still firmly support us."
In response, Natsume chuckled and said with unceremonious disdain:
"Have you sent another mission? Are you planning to use the 'honey trap'?"
"Hmph! Don't be fooled by superficial appearances."
“Don’t look at [Mist Hidden Village]’s apparent honesty.”
"But that Elder Yuanshi has a lot of colorful intestines in his belly."
"Perhaps he is secretly placing bets on both sides, or intends to encourage us to fight [Konoha] again to the death!"
"In this way, he [Mist Hidden Village] can take advantage of the situation..."
“It’s essential to be on guard against others!”
In Natsume's view, an old guy who is older than Onoki and has survived from the Warring States Period is by no means as simple as he seems.
He could survive the death of the Fourth Mizukage and still hold real power.
It is enough to show that the old guy is not simple and very patient.
Obviously, this old beast will not give up easily.
The previous alliance with his family was just a helpless compromise forced by the situation and the suppression of his own strength.
If given the chance, [Mist Hidden Village] would definitely stab itself back without hesitation.
This is the ninja world!
He is so cruel, indifferent and only interested in profit.
In short, after this great battle, there was also the news that Senju Hashirama was back from the dead.
It will definitely bring great shock and change to the ninja world.
The pattern of the five hidden villages that has been maintained for decades should gradually change!
