Naruto's civilian cannon fodder starts with the three-body technique

Chapter 89: Profit Sharing Meeting
"Huh? There's still my sugar energy bar?"

Sasuke Umino checked the gains from the Sand Ninja smuggling scroll. In addition to more than 10 million taels of military rations pills, blades and detonating tags, there were also sugar energy blocks he sold, as well as nearly ten tons of flour produced in the Land of Fire, rice from the Land of Fields and other food.

It seems that in addition to smuggling a large amount of blade materials with Mitomon, this Sand Ninja smuggling team also made a smuggling deal with the merchants accompanying the army.

However, compared to the ethics of the Mito clan's ninjas, these profit-seeking merchants who followed the army had a little more integrity. They only smuggled food and did not involve the smuggling of blades and other materials that would lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan.

"It seems that the merchant caravan above Kong Enzang is also not at peace."

Sasuke Umino did not think that a small manager of the military caravan like Sora Enzo had the power to participate in such a large smuggling transaction. These sugar energy blocks in front of him must have been traded by the senior executives of the military caravan to which Sora Enzo belonged.

As far as he knew, the caravan that Sora Enzo was in was ranked among the top three in the Land of Fire, only slightly smaller than the caravan that monopolized the battlefield of the Land of Rain. Its background was probably very powerful, and must have involved the nobles of the Land of Fire and the Konoha Ninja Clan.

So, while the Konoha ninjas were fighting for their lives on the front lines, these noble ninjas in the rear were actually making money from the war.

What's more crucial is that although these sugar energy blocks are not as good as military ration pills in restoring chakra, they can be used as military ration pills in other aspects and are already military supplies.

However, these noble ninjas actually took advantage of the loophole and said that they were only engaged in food smuggling, but in fact, they were smuggling military supplies similar to Bingliangwan.

These noble ninjas are truly dedicated to their country and their people, and they are capable of doing anything.
"Looks like I'll have to find a new trading partner in the future."

Sasuke Umino suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and decided that if he wanted to sell sugar energy blocks in the future, he would trade them on the black market.

Kong Enzo has low strength and status. Although he is very dedicated to him, he is indeed not a good long-term trading partner.

Compared to the profit-driven and complicated military merchants, the black market is more reassuring, and the tradable items are more complete. As long as you have money, they can get even advanced ninjutsu.

However, it is better to be cautious. It is not too late to sell this batch of smuggled goods after some time, when the intensity of the war intensifies and the prices of military supplies rise sharply.

"Senior, there are so many military supplies. Could it be that those merchants accompanying the army have betrayed their country and dared to smuggle such items?"

Kurama Kon was born into a declining noble family in Konoha, so she had naturally heard about the smuggling trade of the merchants accompanying the army. She thought that smuggling some food and other items was already very bold, but she did not expect that these merchants accompanying the army would be so bold as to smuggle out so many military supplies.

"You take a look first."

Umino Sasuke handed the Konoha Anbu-related documents obtained from the Sand Ninja to Kurama Kone for inspection, and told them one by one how the Sand Ninja used secret codes to pass through the entire defense zone.

"Senior, someone has betrayed the village, and it's a high-ranking Konoha official?"

Kurama Kon knew the stakes involved and her face immediately turned pale with fright. She looked at Umino Sasuke with a worried look on her face.

"Qingyin, don't be afraid. I've already taken care of everything. As long as we don't expose ourselves, no one will know that we stole this batch of military supplies."

Umino Sasuke patted Kurama Kon's head. Her soft hair was very delicate and felt good, so he rubbed it again.

"Yeah." Kurama Kon lowered her head without comment, looking shy.

"Come on, let's start dividing the spoils, ahem, the spoils."

Umino Sasuke unearthed all the loot and arranged it in piles. The first section held the greatest value, consisting of over ten million taels worth of military supplies, including military ration pills, detonating talismans, and bladed weapons. The second section consisted of sugar energy blocks and nearly ten tons of food supplies, each worth several million taels. If they could be sold in the Wind Country, their value would likely increase by three or four times.

The third part is four extremely well-preserved custom-made puppets from the Sand Village, a valuable ninja sword, and some not-so-valuable kunai, shurikens and other bladed tools. The total value should not exceed one million taels, but there are still hundreds of thousands of taels.

The fourth part is the corpse of a giant lizard, a spiritual beast, which is as big as a mountain. The meat on the giant lizard alone is worth no less than ten tons of flour and rice.

What's more, this is the corpse of a high-level summoning beast. Its blood and bone marrow contain a large amount of chakra, which is the top material for making high-quality military rations. It can even be used to practice some special ninjutsu. The known ink escape technique and sealing technique require the blood of a high-level summoning beast.

The scales of this big lizard can also be used to make ninja vests, which must be worth a lot of money.

If you add the gold sand and iron ingots stored in the underground laboratory, the total value is close to 30 million taels, which is enough to buy an Asuma head.

"Senior, I don't want these spoils."

Kurama Kon kept waving her hands, refusing.

She did not share the spoils, not because she knew she had contributed little, but because she was afraid.

These military supplies are smuggled items of a high-ranking Konoha official. Once exposed, even the Kurama clan will be implicated, which will make the situation even worse. Her small body cannot withstand all of this, so it is better for her not to touch it at all in the beginning to avoid being exposed.

Then, Kurama Qingyin reminded with a worried look on her face: "Senior, these military supplies are of great value. You should wait a few years and find an opportunity to secretly take action."

"You have to collect at least some of it. Well, these sugar energy bars are just right for you."

Umino Sasuke immediately used a small sealing scroll to pack up and seal all ten or so boxes of sugar energy blocks, and stuffed them into Kurama Kon's hands. The meaning was very clear: How can we not distinguish between the dirty and the dirty? If you don't take it, how can I take it? If I don't take it, how can we all make progress?
"Roast the big lizard, I want to eat meat!"

"Eat meat, eat meat, roar..."

At this time, the God of Wind and the God of Thunder were surrounding the giant lizard's corpse and cheering.

"Okay, let's eat this big lizard today!"

Sasuke Umino wielded the fish butchering knife and began to dismantle the body and collect the blood of the giant lizard.

Kurama Kon carefully put away the sealing scroll and wanted to come up to help, but found that Umino Sasuke was as smooth as a butcher cutting a cow, and she couldn't help at all.

"Senior, you were able to kill such a powerful summoning beast. You must be a clan leader-level ninja master, right?"

Kurama Kon looked at Umino Sasuke who was constantly busy, with admiration on her face and little stars in her eyes.

"A clan leader-level ninja master?"

Umino Sasuke was stunned and thought about it carefully before he reacted.

Isn’t the so-called clan leader-level ninja master a general term for Kage-level strongmen in the Warring States Period?
