Orochimaru, running away with a bucket

As he imagined the scene of a beautiful older sister with a curvy figure vying to hug him, Jiraiya showed a somewhat obscene grin on his face.

"You pervert, you must be up to no good!"

Tsunade punched Jiraiya on the head, interrupting his fantasy.

"Tsunade, you bastard! Don't go too far!"

Jiraiya covered his head and glared at Tsunade.

"I just went too far, what can you do about it? Do you want to be punched?"

Tsunade pumped her fist.

Here it is again...

Orochimaru looked at Tsunade and Jiraiya who were confronting each other, and couldn't help but feel a little worried about this mission. She was not worried about their safety, as she was very familiar with their strength.

The key is that the enemies they may encounter in this mission are not targeting them, but the goods they are escorting. There is more than one organization that is eyeing the goods of Baishe Pharmaceutical Technology Company.

No matter what, the goods are not important, what is important is human life.

Orochimaru would not put the mission first. The mission is important, but when it comes to human lives, the mission means nothing.

base of root

boom--!

Wow——!

Shimura Danzo slammed his hand on the table, and with a sweep of his arm, the office stationery, reports and documents on the table were scattered all over the floor. He pointed at Sarutobi Hiruzen and shouted angrily: "Huruzen! I tell you! Impossible! I will never agree to this!"

"Danzo, listen to me!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen had long expected Shimura Danzo to have such a reaction. Even he felt embarrassed, let alone Shimura Danzo.

"Those who want to buy the medicinal tea are the powerful people of the Land of Fire. As far as I know, you have been using the Shimura clan's money to train Root ninjas. If you continue like this, it's only a matter of time before the Shimura clan becomes dissatisfied with you."

"So, you want me to convince the Aburame and Uchiha clans? Hiruzen, are you kidding me?"

Danzo Shimura's eyes were aggressive, asking him to persuade the Uchiha clan was the funniest and most unrealistic joke he had ever heard!

"Danzo, you are the Hokage's assistant, don't you want to do something great?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Shimura Danzo calmly and persuaded him, "I know this is difficult, but you must understand that this is good for Shimura, Sarutobi, Aburame, and the Uchiha clan."

Danzo Shimura fell silent. If he didn't want to achieve something great, would he want to win over Orochimaru and provide him with research funds?

Everything he did was for Konoha, and he also wanted to accomplish something to show the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, who did not choose him to be the Hokage, that he was more suitable to be the Hokage than Sarutobi Hiruzen!

"Medicinal tea, are there really so many people who want to buy it?"

Shimura Danzo asked suspiciously, "Any doctor can make this ordinary medicinal tea, so why are so many people interested in buying it? And they're the dignitaries of the Land of Fire, too."

It is true that those people are rich, but they are not fools and are willing to pay for everything.

Just like the skin care products produced by White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company with the formula provided by Orochimaru, they are truly effective and are purchased by the powerful and wealthy.

"The formula for the medicinal tea was developed by Orochimaru."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a low voice.

"Orochimaru...that's not surprising."

Danzo Shimura finally understood why Sarutobi Hiruzen was so confident. Since the formula came from Orochimaru, there would be no problem.

She could even improve the formula of the Akimichi clan's three-color secret medicine, so it's no surprise that she developed a popular medicinal tea.

"Huruzen, I promise you that I will convince the Aburame and Uchiha clans, but when it comes to the distribution of benefits, my Shimura clan needs to take a larger share."

Danzo Shimura was well aware of the consequences of uneven distribution of profits, so he was not greedy. After deducting the 9% of the net profit that Orochimaru took, the remaining 4% was divided equally among the four families, with each family receiving 2.25%.

But this matter was done by Danzo Shimura, so it wouldn’t be too much for the Shimura clan he represents to get a 30% share, right?

"0.25%? Danzo, don't be too greedy. I am willing to give % of the Sarutobi clan to your Shimura clan."

Sarutobi Hiruzen is from a different village and Danzo took away 30% of the net profit.

"Okay, that's settled then."

Danzo Shimura thought that the current distribution of interests was good, at least the Shimura clan was superior to the Sarutobi clan.

When he thought about the fact that the Shimura clan got more money than the Sarutobi clan in the medicinal tea business, he felt extremely comfortable, and even looking at the monotonous reports and documents was not so annoying anymore.

"Well then, Hiruzen, you should arrange for the Anbu to notify the leaders of the Aburame and Uchiha clans."

Danzo Shimura didn't want to waste too much time. Since the recipe of the medicinal tea was fine, he decided to finalize the matter quickly.

"I'll arrange for the Anbu to notify them right away."

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and walked out, but he paused before he reacted.

I am the Hokage, right?

Soon, at the invitation of the Anbu, the patriarch of the Aburame clan, Aburame Shisuke, and the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Kaguya, secretly came to the conference hall of the Hokage Building.

Aburame Shisuke and Uchiha Kaguya met in front of the conference hall, and looked at each other with doubts in their hearts.

I wondered why the Hokage specially sent the Anbu to call them here?

Could it be that the tribesmen have been getting too close to the villagers recently, making it difficult for the police to enforce the law?

Uchiha Huoji thought of the order that the Uchiha Police Force had implemented a few months ago. He was also thinking about his family and Konoha. It would not be good for the Uchiha clan to be too unsociable.

Look, ever since the Uchiha clan changed their style of doing things, there have been so many fewer complaints to the Uchiha Police Force, which proves that his orders were correct.

Seeing that Uchiha Huoji was ignoring his existence and didn't know what he was thinking, Aburame Shisuke had no choice but to say, "Huoji, you said that the Hokage-sama is looking for us."

"do not know."

Uchiha Huoji shook his head and pushed the door open and walked into the conference room.

What happened next was something that Aburame Shisuke and Uchiha Kagami had never expected. They thought it was something very serious, but they never expected that the Third Hokage and the Assistant Hokage would actually represent their respective families to discuss cooperation with them.

Is it really that easy to make money in the medicinal tea business?

Aburame Shisuke and Uchiha Kaguya had no idea about the powerful circles in the Land of Fire, and were skeptical about what Danzo Shimura said about the medicinal tea business. Seeing that he was so confident in his family's medicinal tea formula, they didn't know what to say.

(It cannot be revealed that the medicinal tea formula was developed by Orochimaru. Sarutobi Hiruzen could not say it was his own, and Shimura Danzo could only say it was his family formula, without knowing that Sarutobi Hiruzen, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, had tricked him.)

Uchiha Kaguya agreed in order to give his clan members who were not qualified to be ninjas something to do.

Aburame Shisuke had no objection. There was nothing wrong with making money by providing some insects used as medicinal materials. The secret technique of their Aburame clan was to raise parasitic insects in their bodies, which cost a lot of money.

If some insects did not have medicinal value, the Aburame clan would not have fared much better in Konoha than the Yamanaka clan before them.

Seeing Aburame Shisuke and Uchiha Kaoru agree, Shimura Danzo glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen from the corner of his eye. There was a hint of boasting in his glance, as if to say, "Isn't this simple? Hiruzen, look at you, you're being so serious."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who felt that he had betrayed Shimura Danzo, had a smile on his face and a pipe in his mouth. Because the Aburame clan did not like the smell of tobacco, he could only inhale the flavor of the tobacco and could not light it.

I hope the day when Danzo knows the truth will come later.

PS:

The fifth update, the last update of today.

Volume 1: Chapter 6 and 4: The recipe is provided by the Hokage's assistant

The Land of Waves is a small maritime country adjacent to the Land of Fire. Its area is about the size of a small island, and the only way to travel to the Land of Fire is by sea.

Orochimaru and his party came to the coast and boarded the ship. With the speed of the ship, it would not take long to reach the port of Wave Country.

Along the way, many merchant ships from other countries were sailing towards the port of Wave Country. They purchased goods in large quantities, and could buy skin care products at a lower price, and then sell them at a higher price.

It's the same thing as what the traders in the villages around Konoha do, the only difference is that they make more money the more goods they buy.

"I hope I don't run into any trouble this time!"

Jiraiya thought that this was his first C-rank mission, and it would be troublesome if a battle broke out at sea again, as he couldn't summon the toads from Mount Myoboku to help.

He didn't want to be thrown into the air by Gamabunta again and fall into the sea in such an embarrassing posture.

Even the most talkative Gama Ken probably doesn't want to fight at sea.

"If we encounter an enemy, it's all because of your bad mouth, Jiraiya!" Tsunade crossed her arms and looked at Jiraiya unhappily, "Can't you say something nice?"

"Wu... a crow's mouth?! Master Jiraiya's mouth has charmed thousands of girls, how could it be a crow's mouth!"

"Charming thousands of girls? How dare you say that!"

"Jiraiya-sama is so handsome and handsome that a violent girl like you with a flawed aesthetic will never be able to see it!"

It starts again...

Orochimaru looked at Tsunade and Jiraiya who were arguing again. They really couldn't go a day without quarreling.

It's normal for children to make noise.

If only I wouldn't be involved.

Orochimaru looked at Tsunade and Jiraiya who were arguing with him as the dividing line, and sighed helplessly.

The boat driver looked at the three people with suspicion. It was not that he did not trust the ninjas of Konoha, but the three of them were too young. Not only did their appearance not convince, but they also acted so innocently, as if they were just here for fun on the boat.

Are they really okay?

The ship docked at the port, and Orochimaru and his party disembarked. Cargo was continuously delivered to the port, and there were ninjas waiting to escort the cargo. Among them, there were many ninjas from the Hyuga clan or the Uchiha clan in the team.

"Are they also on escort missions?"

Tsunade looked at the ninjas in surprise, then turned around and found that the ship that brought them here was heading towards the Land of Fire, apparently to pick someone up.

"It is said that White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company has a long-term partnership with Konoha and hired ninjas to escort their products. These are the skin care products sold by the Konoha White Snake brand skin care products store."

Orochimaru looked at the buildings in the distance. He hadn't been there for a while, and the Wave Country had changed a lot. The houses people lived in had changed from old wooden houses to more sturdy houses.

A huge White Snake brand logo hangs on a multi-story building. The building is the White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company, and the processing plant is behind the company.

Around the White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company is the most prosperous downtown area in the Kingdom of Waves, where many businessmen come and go, and the hotel industry is extremely booming.

The porters worked hard, sweating profusely, to load boxes of goods onto the merchant ships. Teams of ninjas followed the merchant ships back to the Land of Fire, escorting the goods to the designated towns.

"When will it be our turn?"

Jiraiya squatted on the ground, watching the workers busy loading goods onto the merchant ship with boredom.

"It should be soon."

Tsunade was also a little impatient, and looked curiously at Orochimaru who was writing something in a notebook. When she got closer, she saw densely packed words. She took a step back before she could break free from the ocean of words.

Are you writing an article?

Tsunade thought of the emperor's uncle written by Orochimaru, and her cute little face blushed.

I'm still writing the manuscript of that kind of book at this time. What if Jiraiya sees it?

When Tsunade thought about what kind of expression Jiraiya would have when he knew Orochimaru was writing that kind of book, her fists stiffened and she looked at Jiraiya fiercely.

"You...what are you going to do?!"

Jiraiya was frightened by Tsunade's eyes and quickly moved away from her as if facing a great enemy.

Could it be that she knew what I was thinking?

White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company

"Qinghe, this is the recipe for the medicinal tea. The effects are on the second page."

Orochimaru's shadow clone placed the recipe for the medicinal tea on the desk.

"Herbal tea?"

Qinghe looked at the recipe for the medicinal tea and his eyes widened in shock when he saw the effects on the second page.

This medicinal tea has such effects?!

Qinghe looked at the formula in his hand, then looked at Orochimaru, then looked back at the formula in his hand.

"Qinghe, don't let others know that I gave you this formula. Remember, this was provided by Shimura Danzo, the Assistant Hokage of Konoha. Do you understand?"

Orochimaru said with a smile, a hint of warning in his words.

(Shimura Danzo:?)

"Yes... Orochimaru, please don't worry!"

Qinghe nodded repeatedly. Even though Lord Orochimaru was smiling, he felt his hair stand on end. A faint smoke floated from his body, and he subconsciously used the life-saving Smoke Illusion Technique.
