Aizen appears bringing great news from the Shinobi world. Aizen talks about the arrival of the Daimyo, and their messengers who had come to the Rouran Empire. Aizen reports great movements in the ninja world, as the five villages are mobilizing. Konoha was the most suspicious, as he had sent the Uchiha Clan alone to monitor the border with Kirigakure.

[October 05, 14 A.N.N.]
"ROURAN BANK!!"
When I looked at the name, I could only smile, since with a bank I could make the Empire grow more.
I had noticed that the Shinobi villages did not have banks, and always depend on the Daimyo. For this reason, the ninjas never rose against the Daimyo.
As the Daimyo said, ninjas are good dogs, since they don't know how to manage their money, and they only know how to fight.
The most ironic thing, the money that the ninja villages receive, was only the crumbs of the Daimyo.
What I didn't understand at first, was why the ninjas never rose, if they were extremely strong, and could kill all the leaders of this world.
The motto of a world is, The strongest commands the weakest!, and that would be the law, but in the Shinobi world, it doesn't rule that way.
The Daimyo commands the strongest, and the strongest commands the weakest. It was kind of ironic, but that's the way this world worked.
I was able to understand that logic, since in my previous world; the army is very powerful, but in the end, the ones who rule were the politicians. I adapted to that ideology, and it did me a lot of good, since I didn't need to fight, I just needed to do business.
Until today, no strong and intelligent person wants to change this system. If a person with those characteristics had been born, they would have considered him the bad guy, since he would have started a revolution in the Shinobi world.
I thought about this problem a lot, but in the end, I concluded, it's a lot of trouble to manage a world, when people don't care about peace, and only think about themselves. Also, world peace is an illusion, it will never happen, because we humans are selfish.
For that, I will control the Shinobi world behind the scenes. Who controlled the money, controls the world. For this reason, I was going to open this Bank, it is only the first step of my plan.
I always kept in mind that money is an imaginary good, and it is the value that one gives it.
'As I can create money... I can control this world, since many people I could buy.' I thought and continued 'But now that I am creating this bank, I am also creating a financial system, and I will no longer be able to continue creating money without any control... The good side is that all the money created is in assets, and the profits it's constant.'.
I was going to focus on gold because gold is always used in negotiations, since it is good, very valuable for society, and in this world, it is also used, I was thinking of buying all the gold I can from this world.
Someone once said that Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure was the richest man in the world, because he could control golden dust, with his magnetism ability. But, they were wrong, the answer is very easy, and it is physical, gold has no magnetism, it is also a very good conductor, which is why it is a very valuable metal.
To think that many people said that gold dust, is gold. Rasa could only control fool's gold, and the name of the metal is Pyrite, it also has a higher density than sand, being a metal, that's why it was superior to Gara. Every day you learn something new.
If it had been gold, the Sunagakure village would not have starved, much less dared to start a war with Konoha. Because of that, he wasn't worried about Rasa.
"Let's go!" - I spoke, and started walking, while Aizen followed me, he hadn't interrupted me, during the time I was thinking.
After a while, we arrived at the Commercial Palace, this palace was dedicated exclusively to the negotiations and treaties of the Empire.
In the palace, he had an exclusive place for negotiations with the Daimyo, since I had arranged it, with the best luxury.
The Daimyo is laid-back people who like money and luxury, which is why they despise ninjas.
When the guards noticed my presence, they immediately greeted me and had bowed their heads.
"Good morning sir!" - Said the Guards of the Rouran Empire.
"Good morning, continue with your work, don't worry." - I spoke with a calm voice while greeting the guards.
The truth is, I don't like it when a person lowers their head, but they had insisted that it is their tradition, and they didn't want to break their custom.
He had let it go, since it doesn't negatively affect the Empire, and the soldiers are very loyal.
I could see many personal guards of the Daimyo, most of them are Samurai, and they are waiting outside the palace, and they bowed and greeted me, they hold respect for people with the same level as their bosses (Daimyo).
Aizen was responsible for keeping an eye on all the guards, so there were no spies in this group of guards, and no one could avoid the radars he had placed throughout the Empire.
I just nodded in greeting, and the guards returned to their standby positions.
When I entered the palace, I went to the negotiation area, where the Daimyo was. Aizen had remained silent all this time, as he was fulfilling his military activities.
When he was near the area I could hear a lot of noise as the Daimyo were chatting while having fun.
When I entered the negotiation area, the Daimyo stopped, looked at me, as they stood up, and began to greet me.
They considered me as an equal, since I am very good with money, and I brought them new things for them to enjoy. Plus, he was making them a lot of money.
During this time, he had created many things, alcohol was one of those things, the vice of every man.
(Author: Recommendation, do not have any vice, since it can affect you in your life.)
As they say, the rich burn money, when they have to spend, they spend it, and also, they know how to earn a lot of money, that's why they have their lives of luxury.
Money is not bad when one knows how to use it. Many people work for money, but very few people who make money work for them, and those people who do, are the rich.
Nobody in this world is bad, or good, it reminds me of a phrase:
¡Sometimes we believe that money changes people. But really, it just does, show us your true face!
The Daimyo has every right to spend, as it is their money, and no one can stop them.
At this time, the Daimyo approached me.
"Hello Max, we were waiting for you." - Said Yoshiyuki Kaneko with a tired voice, Daimyo of the Land of Fire, Konohagakure.
"Hello Yuki, I was busy, I just got free." - I spoke with a relaxed voice and greeted him.
"Hello, Max, it's about time you showed up." - Taira Kikumoto said with a happy voice, Daimyo of the Country of the Wind, Sunagakure.
"Hello, Tai, yes, I'm here, don't worry, we'll eat very soon." - I spoke with a lazy voice, and greeted him, since Taira liked to eat.
"Hello Max, you've finally come." - Said Yousuke Akimoto with a bored voice, Daimyo of the Land of Lightning, Kumogakure.
"Hello Suke, yes, I hope you have time to play for a while, and we can bet big money." -I spoke calmly and greeted him, since Yousuke was a boring person, but he liked to bet large amounts of money.
"Hi Max, how was your day?" - Said Hiromu Kondou calmly, Daimyo of the Land of Water, Kirigakure.
"Hello Hiro, well... you still have a straight face... relax, in this place, you have come to relax." -I spoke calmly, and greeted him, since Hiromu is very cautious, he could understand, since, in his country, pure murderers abound.
"Hello Max, why are you late?" - Said Kenji Yamauchi directly, and bluntly, Daimyo of the Land of Earth, Iwagakure.
"Hello Kenji, you have arrived a day before the meeting, I was busy, and you have just notified me." -I spoke calmly, and I answered directly to Kenji, bluntly, since I like his personality, he is very direct, and doesn't beat around the bush. Among the five, he is the one with the most treaties, and business deals.
With the five Daimyo, I had confidence, that's why they called me my name normally, since we had made many deals and businesses.
As the saying goes, keep your friends close, but your enemies closer. Confidence with the Daimyo is just pure business, there is no friendship in business.
The Daimyo always came to this place as a place of rest, since in their territory they had to take care of being betrayed.
Typical in a feudal, or imperial family, they always want to reach the maximum power, and the best way is to kill their relatives and reach the main place.
Well, politicians are also similar, you can't trust anyone, after all, they can betray you; and if there is a good one, all the bad ones get together, to make the good one look like the bad one, ironic of life.
"Come on have a seat." - I spoke calmly, and I went to the main seat, and the Daimyo also sat at their respective seats.
Seramu had trusted me in the negotiations, as he trusted me, and he knew that he would not betray him.
She was going to wait for Seramu anyway, she was going to come, after lunch, since she was away, so she had to entertain the guests.
At this time, I began to converse with the Daimyo about trivial things, and the day-to-day life of their countries.
In this conversation, I had learned that the Daimyo already knew that I was going to see a war, but they were unconcerned, since it was not going to be in their lands.
In addition, with the war, they were going to weaken the ninjas, and it favors them that the ninjas never surpass themselves.
Instead, they increased the money in their ninja villages more so that the war starts soon since they wanted to bet who wins, and who loses.
When I was listening to their conversation, I just sighed internally and reminded myself of a phrase that I always remember.
"War is a massacre between people who do not know each other, for the benefit of people who, if they know each other, but do not slaughter each other!!"
He was not a hero of justice, since he was not going to intervene to stop the war, because it was not my problem.
Also, if I stop the war, then what? Humans will try to find any small reason to start a war.
One cannot save someone who does not want to be saved. I only have sympathy for the civilians, I will try to help if possible, but I was not thinking of stopping the war.
For this reason, Tony is following my order, he was spreading the news that there is work in the Rouran Empire, and they just had to come to the territory, by their means.
When I looked at the Daimyo, I was reminded that, in my previous world, there was also an organization that controlled the world, and they decided whether or not there was war in the countries, and they controlled the world's money.
(Author: The organization of the triangle with an eye, I will not put his name.).
As I continued to converse with the Daimyo, Seramu arrived, everyone saluted, and she sat down next to me.
Seramu was in charge of managing the entire Empire,I didn't want to get too involved, since it was too much work. Besides, she was very good at it.
"Really! Are you going to continue with that project?" - Seramu said in a low voice, with a little nervousness.
"Yes, it is the best way, with that we can ensure the future." - I spoke with a confident voice, no one could hear our conversation.
"Okay, I'll support you," Seramu said, she nodded at me, approvingly.
At this time, I started to remember the conversation with Seramu...
[Memory of Max]
"Seramu, I have a plan to further grow the Empire." - I talked
"What's the plan?" Seramu said.
"Create a Bank" - I spoke
"What benefits does a Bank bring us?" - Seramu said with doubt.
"When one of them asks for a loan, we earn on the interest, and they will always depend on us... they are going to get more and more indebted, and that will be very beneficial for us." - I talked
"Do you think they'll accept?" Seramu said.
"Yes, it's very easy, I already have a method planned for them to accept" - I spoke
"May I know?" Seramu said.
"Yes" - I spoke, and continued - "I'm going to make millionaire contracts, where they will have to think twice before refusing."
"Can you tell me more..." - Seramu said
"Of course, I'm going to buy raw materials from them, and we're going to produce term products, wherever they buy from us" - I spoke and began to tell him how the new bank was going to work.
"I hope they accept..." - Seramu said
"If they're going to do it, after all, I'm going to offer good contracts with them, for big purchases." - I spoke, and continued "This is the first step, the next step we will earn much more."
"Well, I trust you," Seram said.
[End of Memory]
When you stop remembering the conversation with Seramu, look at the Daimyo, as it is business time.
At this time, I spoke to all the Daimyo, and they stopped their conversation.
"Friends, they always told me that it bothered them to bring a lot of money to this place, since it took up a lot of space in their carriages." - I spoke calmly while looking at everyone.
At this time, all the Daimyo paid attention to me, as they always hated to bring large amounts of money, on their travels.
"I have a solution to your problems, and it will benefit us all..." - I spoke with suspense, after a moment of silence, while looking at everyone, I continued - "Also, I want to make big contracts with you, and we will earn a lot, a lot of money."
To be continued...
******************
Author: I need you to confirm the last name of the MC... I'm going to put the last name of "Dragon!", and it will only change depending on the world, where the MC goes, examples...
"Ryu!" means Dragon in Japanese. I'll use it when the MC is in Japan.
"Doragon!" will be used in other words, for example, One Piece, and others.
"Long" means dragon in Chinese, but I won't use it, since it means long in English.
If you have another last name about Dragon comment.
I think the last name "Doragon!" can be used for all worlds. I need to confirm the last name for the second world, since I need the last name for an identity record.
Something important, now I will only publish three chapters per week, during this time, but if I see the support I will increase the chapters.
