Representatives of the industrial faction and Makoto reached a consensus, and the two sides quickly signed a memorandum.

But when it comes to a formal contract, both parties have to wait a little longer.

Because it is the special New Year, except for some necessary guards, almost no one is at work... Yes, it is Makoto, the leader of the Hokage.

Croak, taking a vacation means taking a good vacation. Thinking about work for even one second is considered a change!

Fortunately, there is still a lot of preliminary auxiliary work to be done on both sides, so there is no rush.

Representatives of the industrial faction hurried back to the Land of Fire to recruit help.

The automobile industry, especially hybrid companies that also involve new energy, will definitely require huge amounts of funds even if Konoha provides technology.

One or two wealthy businessmen will definitely not be able to support it, and more powerful people will need to join in. Of course, industrial representatives will also persuade some people to reduce certain frictions.

What the Land of Fire needs now is transportation capacity, and many well-informed wealthy businessmen know this. Makoto and industrial representatives joined forces to develop new energy vehicles, and they were naturally happy to join.

But not some people – like the unlucky ones who have invested heavily in traditional internal combustion engines.

They have gone through various channels and know that they will definitely make a lot of money in terms of transportation capacity, so they have spent a lot of effort in it. And now Makoto and the industrial representatives kicked the guy who was eating them as soon as they came up... How could they be willing to do so!

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents.

This is bound to be another commercial war.

But the problem is that real business wars are cruel. And Makoto is the Hokage...

Representatives of the industrial faction don't know what the future will be like, so they can only save one by one.

Good words can't save the damned ghost. Brother, I have already tried to persuade you. If you still refuse to turn back, that's your problem.

Of course, that's not all he has to do.

In addition to making contributions to the big names, he also needs to inform the Ministry of Transportation and arrange some new traffic regulations – this is something Makoto strongly advocates.

The relationship between the two parties is already very good, this is a serious request in itself, and the other party's money is in place, so things will naturally go smoothly.

But after all, it affects many aspects of society, and it will take a long time to fully implement it.

There's really nothing can be done about it.

Just wait patiently.

Anyway, the assembly of the assembly line, as well as Konoha's long-term and pressure reports, will also take a while.

Makoto's work here is relatively simple, which is the youth version of Reibi and the chakra center thing.

The demands of representatives of the industrial faction once caused a great headache for the ninjutsu masters in Konoha.

The main reason is that the requirements are so weird – everyone else has to do addition, but you have to do subtraction.

What normal people want is a complete tank, while industrialists only want two wheels of the tank...

Any industrial product and ninjutsu are becoming more and more complex, and the effects and interactions between each other must be taken into consideration. If you want minimalism, you only need two wheels...then only retain the ability to absorb and store dark emotions and vitality...

This can hardly be called an artificial biju.

From the point of view of those ninjutsu masters, this can only be said to be a very special kind of escape.

It's too extreme and has basically no combat effectiveness.

But... people themselves don't want it to have any combat effectiveness.

So be it.

Sandaime played a major role in this dismantling. After all, he has the title of Professor. His innovation in ninjutsu may not be as good as that of the second generation, but his extensive knowledge is quite reliable.

After several rounds of modifications, the Chakra Center was completed.

Under Makoto's special request, the absorption ability of these chakra centers was particularly weak.

The original Reibi can forcibly absorb chakra from others, but the current youth version, let alone forcefully absorb it, can resist the absorption of the youth version of Reibi by ordinary people with a firmer will to resist.

Even if the user activates the absorption ability to the upper limit, they can only absorb more negative emotions, but cannot obtain a large amount of vitality from a single individual.

Makoto lay in it all night, and felt refreshed when he got up... Turning this thing up, it even has a sleep-aid effect, because all the negative emotions have been absorbed...

Only when ordinary people fully cooperate with the youth version of Reibi can all kinds of absorption be completed smoothly.

...But Makoto also knew that with the urine of big factory owners, they would definitely do some very disgusting things.

They will definitely do this in pursuit of maximum profits.

Ultron spent ten minutes browsing the Internet and concluded that humanity was beyond redemption and could only be destroyed.

Makoto is not as extreme as Ultron, he only needs five minutes.

But technically speaking, Makoto could only do this.

In order to achieve their own goals, they may even invite foreign ninjutsu masters to forcibly destroy the original techniques in order to obtain the most energy.

The hoe is used to cultivate the land, but if you insist on using it to hit people, the manufacturer can't do anything about it... This requires the progress and restrictions of the world as a whole.

Konoha has not yet reached the point where it can order the world and everyone dares not to obey.

Take it easy.

All Makoto can do now is to feel free from guilt.

...He really wanted to accumulate some virtue and leave a son each to Minatsuki and Nono.

In the following days, the New Year passed slowly and people slowly returned to work. At the same time, the first batch of three wheeled truck prototypes were finally produced.

Makoto immediately ordered the start of long-term testing and stress testing.

Overall the results are quite satisfactory.

The cooperation between Makoto and representatives of the industrial faction is still relatively secretive for the time being, and has not been deliberately spread. But when the wealthy businessmen in Konoha saw that Makoto had made a new toy, they immediately came to ask for investment.

The Godaime Hokage naturally smiled and agreed to them one by one.

Rather than having a few more enemies, he hopes to have a few more friends, so that Konoha's future path will be much smoother.

This was not the first time that wealthy businessmen invested in stock subscription, and everything went smoothly. However, they always felt that Makoto had other options... He had always been like this.

So Kakashi came over and asked.

– Makoto has intentionally created this method since the tobacco era. It not only reduces his own troubles, but also allows Kakashi to have more friendship with most people.

For someone like Kakashi, Makoto had nothing to hide.

"With so much transportation capacity, I will naturally be of use...I am ready to build an express delivery business."

"Express delivery service? Isn't this one of our ninja's businesses?"

Traditional ninjas have a very complex job. They do everything from taking care of children to weed weeds to cutting people for advanced research.

...Although Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara taking care of children and weeding the field, it does ruin the character a bit.

It's just about making money, don't be embarrassed.

"Ah, indeed...but I plan to cut this part of the task out. Many express delivery services are very easy, and it would be a bit wasteful to ask Genin to make a trip. Many people in Konoha do not have ninja talents, I have to give them a way out..."

Makoto has always been committed to improving the status of ninjas. He positions ninjas as protectors and wise men.

If you were as powerful as Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, then you should be the ruler of a country and stand at the pinnacle of mankind.

If your wisdom is superhuman, you can be like Skynet, make yourself as powerful as Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, and stand at the pinnacle of mankind.

T/N: 'Skynet' refers to a fictional artificial superintelligence that serves the antagonists in  Terminator

The express delivery business can really be cut out... When the transportation capacity increases in the future, it will make no difference whether there are more ninjas or fewer ninjas.

Of course, if the benefactor's father is as wealthy as the Daimyo's wife, and he has to send something from one big country to another within a few hours, then he can do it.

You are the funder father, everything you say makes sense.

"It always feels like...you have more than that."

Kakashi looked at Makoto with suspicious eyes.

...You caught me.

Makoto once considered using Edo Tensei to complete the express delivery business.

He even thought of a name and called it Link Express.

Being a courier boy is a very tiring job, and you must know the local information very well. Makoto didn't want to spend the energy of the ninjas on this, so he thought about letting the dead do it.

If they do it, it will definitely be faster and better.

They can even reversely charge the Chakra Tripod – they all have unlimited Chakra anyway, so it's not easy to go out. Why don't you fill up hundreds of Chakra centers before leaving?

Those who are strong in Edo Tensei are troublesome, while those who are weak in Edo Tensei are very easy.

Definitely not one weak person, but there are many.

If you really do it, this business will not only be cost-free, it can even be profitable in reverse.

What kind of fossil energy and various power generation methods are being developed, all of which are thrown away by me, just look at me turning the electricity meter upside down.

However, this plan was rejected by himself.

This plan is efficient enough in terms of efficiency alone, but considering the stability that ordinary residents lose by staying with the undead for a long time, the efficiency it improves is not high enough.

If the debuff is too big, it will be boring.

For now, people can only accept the arrival of Eirei Shokan (Heroic Spirit Summoning) on the battlefield.

Or the ancestor comes at a critical moment to endorse his rule.

But there is no need to tell Kakashi this kind of thing...

"This is just an ordinary business event. There are so many twists and turns...Kakashi, you are a little nervous."

"Huh, that's good...I was worried whether you would want to use Edo Tensei to fill the chakra center."

"..."

"You wouldn't do that...right?"

"...Of course."

Kakashi felt it was best not to discuss the issue any further.

The Godaime Hokage is as free as the wind in the sky. You might think he is where he is, but in fact he has gone somewhere.

Kakashi decided to lighten the mood by saying something lighter.

"Hokage-sama, now there is two pieces of news, one good and one bad. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"It's bad. This world is bad enough. I can't think of anything worse than the world."

"The bad news is that you are wanted and have entered the bounty exchange's wanted list."

"Oh, that's so bad...what about the good news."

"The good news is that with a high bounty of 5.5648 billion ryos, you have become the Kage with the highest bounty ever."

"Not Shodaime-sama?"

"...The Shodaime-sama has no bounty. There is no such stupid party offering the bounty, and there is no such stupid party receiving the reward."

Makoto paused for a moment, then violently flip the coffee table.

"What happened? I'm only 5.5648 billion ryos? Is there a mistake? –

"Go and add 0 to me. I will never accept this insult!"

"...You might as well ask, who is wanted for you?"

"Who else could it be? Isn't it those internal combustion engine businessmen?"

Kakashi scratched his head.

"It seems that the news has leaked out...don't you think of a way? Although Konoha is not afraid of them..."

"Hey, they are serious businessmen. As Hokage, how can I abuse my power? If I kill them this time, what will other people think of me? Everyone knows that I am elegant, easy-going, and very trustworthy. I never Using personal vendetta to influence business judgment."

Makoto was troubled.

"To deal with this group of guys who try to use violence to interfere with the normal progress of productivity, being too kind will be seen as weakness. But if it is too violent..."

"Hey, how great would it be if there was someone who is absolutely violent, deviant, cynical, notorious as a Khitan, and has a sense of self-sacrifice to clean up all these bad guys and protect legitimate businessmen like us?"

T/N: Khitan were nomadic people from Northeast Asia (hah... China)

Kakashi always felt that these words were familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere.

... ...

Pain opened his eyes.
