Yugito-sama, We Love and Respect You

The matter of Hokage and Mizukage dating spread to all corners of the world within the first hour through today's increasingly advanced information networks.

Rightfully so, all social media blew up.

Ever since the Fourth Ninja World War, the well-known notables would break a super big news that was bound to be recorded in history every year. Everyone also began to gradually get used to this kind of thing... But even so, the matter of the two shadows dating still suppressed all the news and became the front page headlines of all the newspapers and magazines.

Some TV stations even temporarily inserted this news halfway through the news broadcast in order to grab the heat.

This news of the explosion, and even suppressed just settled not long ago the cabinet boss assassination case - although because of the countries jointly determined that the originator of this time is the dawn organization, but many people still want to rely on this opportunity, in order to achieve their own purpose... results of this group of Conspirators were suddenly burst out of the top of the big melon to the fried hemp claws.

Because they were too confused, they didn't even react for a moment.

Comparatively speaking, on the contrary, the reaction of the people of various countries was more direct.

The people of the Land of Fire expressed joy at this.

After all, Konoha was a part of the Land of Fire, and Makoto was a scum, but he really never touched the Land of Fire.

So very counterintuitive, in the Land of folk, Makoto's persona is actually similar to other people's children so a state - not only has the intensity of the beauty, but also very good at management, the most critical is the whole family dead, no mother-in-law, as long as the young girl married directly into the power of the mansion wife...

A boss who is ruthless but also takes care of his brothers can actually be said to be a positive comment.

The only pity is that he already has little Temari.

However, in this era where the legacy of the Warring States Period is still there, little kid like Temari have no human rights at all.

Now that Hokage had arched someone else's family's cabbage, except for a few maidens in their boudoirs who would be eerily sad, everyone basically expressed joy, and there was even that little bit of honor for the country.

This melon to eat, simply straightforward, hearty.

In contrast, it is like a bereaved Land of Water male youth... especially male ninjas... goddesses were arched by other people's pigs, their own completely hopeless!

I don't know how many older male youths can't wait to Makoto this scum shredded and ground to feed turtles.

This situation, I am afraid that it will continue until the next beautiful and capable of fighting Land of Water goddess came out of the sky.

... But that was all.

After all, the seventh prince had known about their relationship, and if they didn't get married, it would be really hard to end it in the future. Yagura, on the other hand, was even more direct and squashed all those extremists...

The Land of Wind and Suna, on the other hand, were calm.

The guys were eager to see the classic bridge of the father-in-law violently beating the thinly veiled lover, but Suna had already known the attitude of the father-in-law... Really let Hokage endure ten years? This is also too much.

There is no such reason.

As long as you don't get a child out of it, just let them be.

Compared to these three countries, Land of Lightning is obviously the most happy melon eating. All kinds of gossip is flying, there is revenge, there is injustice to hold injustice, basically become the Naruto version of the bloody dogs and men.

The strangest, on the contrary, is the Land of Earth and Iwa.

It is reasonable to say that Iwa and Kumo are close, and the relationship with Konoha is also poor, this time should be a ruthless wave of output is right.

But no matter how revelry the people of Land of Earth were, Iwagakure remained silent, which was thought-provoking.

...But no matter how lively the noise is, this is ultimately only the voice of the people.

The ones who really decide the course of events are still the big shots.

Rightfully so, something this big directly alarmed the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Although the nobles regularly didn't even do anthropomorphic things, it didn't mean that their political literacy was low.

Quite the contrary, when it came to defending their positions of power, their reaction speed was comparable to a cockroach sprint of bladed teeth.

And so while everyone was staggering with joy, a meeting that only the heavy ministers in the cabinet could attend was quietly convened.

Regarding how to handle this matter, the important ministers were divided into two factions with clear positions.

One faction believed that Hokage was at least an important person in the Land of Fire, but now he was colluding with an important minister of a foreign country, which was really undignified.

It's nothing to like women, we're all men. Even if it costs a little money, it doesn't cost much.

They all turn off the lights.

But now Hokage's behavior is really shameless.

Everyone could see it clearly through the sneak peek video.

Though the two were a bit blurry, those familiar with the two kages could be easily recognized - though I don't know what's going on, but that sneak peek video routinely has homo-style pointless dribbling that moves the camera to a certain type of wine every time it's important to do so... is it so the two don't find out?

That damn bottle of wine appeared more times than the two kages.

Never mind, it doesn't matter.

All in all, this faction thought that Makoto must come out and bow in thanks and promise never to do it again.

-Couldn't you really physically torture the increasingly powerful Hokage?

Let him admit his mistake first, and define the nature of the matter as a black matter before doing so.

That would be considered a success.

The other faction, on the other hand, made it clear that there had to be some kind of conspiracy, a diversionary tactic from an enemy country.

Their reasoning was also sound.

"None of you are ninja, so it's normal that you don't understand the power of ninja. However, it is widely recognized that the Godaime Hokage is currently the number one person in the Ninja world. -

"His perception is already very strong, plus he has always been meticulous, and he is bound to be incomparably cautious when doing this kind of thing, so how could he be secretly filmed with so many important videos? -

"What's more important...is the publisher actually still alive to send it out? Are Konoha ANBU just for nothing? Under normal circumstances, after the first day of sending out the message, the publisher would be hit with thousands of copies, and then was it later proven to be fake news? It's been a few days and it still hasn't turned around! -

"Instead of believing that this is the Godaime Hokage himself, we should believe that it's a botched transformation technique and that someone is deliberately vilifying... -

"If all of you even believe this kind of low-level lie, it's too ridiculous!"

Obviously, in the eyes of this faction, this was an extremely malicious slander.

Certain ill-intentioned people not only wanted to defame Makoto's character - if this was necessary - but also to divide the relationship between Konoha and the Land of Fire.

Instead of believing this, it would be better to believe that Makoto was Qin Shi Huang.

T/N: Qin Shi Huang was the founder of the Qin dynasty and the first emperor of a unified China, historically, he was often portrayed as a tyrannical ruler and strict Legalist

Each side had their own reasoning, and they argued for a while.

The Land of Fire Daimyo was also in quite a difficult position.

Not that he cared about the truth.

Ever since he was ten years old, he hadn't cared about such inconsequential things.

The Daimyo always cared about only one thing - what could he get out of this?

It was a fact that Makoto was becoming more and more of a threat, and he was far more threatening than the Shodaime Hokage before him.

For the Daimyo, it doesn't matter whether the other party wants to fight back or not, what matters is whether the other party has the strength to fight back.

But on the other hand, Makoto has so far, always maintained the Land of Fire's deference, and still to this day, still weakening other countries for everyone.

Such a sharp edge, if he is still suspicious, it is true that there are some pro's pain and hatred... He has also never rejected the princess of the Land of Fire, a number of years later, perhaps he can be abducted into the ruling system of the Land of Fire...

For a time, the Land of Fire Daimyo also hesitantly could not make up his mind.

Therefore, he finally looked to his heavy ministers.

"Gentlemen..."

Minister of Finance: "Your Highness, even if it is false, your anger must be displayed. Now that the times are in turmoil, the only way to deter the people is to show Lightningous anger! Lately, Konoha has indeed been getting more and more excessive!"

Foreign Minister: "I second the motion! Previously, I asked Konoha to investigate something, but as a result, they even pushed back, they must be severely punished!"

Hearing the flurry of attacks from the heavy ministers, the Daimyo knew what to do.

"Not so much, not so much... The Godaime Hokage is a good young man, I look at it very well."

"But young people, it is inevitable to make a little mistake. The next time I see him, I must have a good talk with him..."

In the outside world's puzzled doubts, the daimyo of the Land of Fire and the son of the Land of Water Daimyo gently put down this matter that had almost stabbed the sky.

... ...

While the whole world was shaking because of someone's underground romance, the conservative elders on the Kumo side also received an invitation from the Land of Lightning Daimyo's retainer.

These two years could be said to have been quite bad for the conservative faction.

After the death of the Fourth Raikage in battle, the conservative faction actually dominated for a time, even squeezing Yugito into Konoha.

However, after the appointment battle with Makoto, the elite of the conservative faction was killed by Makoto for the most part, and surprisingly, it fell apart.

Granted, the Conservative Faction also had one less flag-bearer, Killer B, to deal with. But as the situation in Kumo got worse and worse, more of the less powerful faction chose to cast their lot with the Restoration Faction.

Even the conservatives who weren't very determined originally began to think, can this really go on?

Now anyone can see, if nothing is done, Kumo completely broken by Makoto is just a matter of time.

Just even if it changes... how should it change?

The future was confusing, and everyone could not find a direction.

The Conservative elders were incredibly worried in their hearts, and even had sores on the corners of their mouths, but they never had too good a solution.

Until, the attendants invited them.

Don't look at just the daimyo squire, as the saying goes, in front of the chancellor's door seven pints of officials, because of the proximity to the daimyo, also has a great deal of influence.

Some of the things that were in between could become completely different after some lobbying by them.

Of course, the daimyo will sometimes deliberately leak some information through their mouths... After all, the daimyo can't make mistakes, only their subjects can make mistakes...

The retainers were also very direct this time and spoke their minds.

"Today's situation, His Highness is also worried in his heart. Previously, I had thought that I would respect the traditions of the Ninja Village. But this eventful autumn, also can not count too much... Daimyo hope, in any case, please both sides in the near future to elect the next Raikage, to reach an amicable."

The conservative elders really didn't expect that the Land of Rai Daimyo would choose to break with tradition and forcefully pressure the Shinobi Village to force them to elect the Raikage.

This was certainly not in keeping with tradition, but... perhaps it was also as the Daimyo had said, it was no longer the time to be counting on that.

However, the conservative elders could sense that the retainers' tone was a bit strange... Fortunately, they immediately comprehended it.

"Our fists and hearts, heaven and earth can be judged... Please be sure to speak favorably for us in front of the Daimyo!"

Nobles have always been greedy, let alone a special position like a close attendant. The Conservative elders put their hearts on the line and immediately sent a large number of gifts.

No matter what, those who can become elders will always have some of their savings... The retainers are obviously asking for it, and in order to obtain the position of Raikage, they can t care about that much.

For the position of Raikage, they are really planning to give everything they have.

If they don't put up a fight at this time, are they going to wait until they are counter-pressured by the Reform faction?

They and the Reform faction have been tossing each other around for so many years, and they know very well in their hearts that once they fall into the hands of the Reform faction, there is absolutely no good end for them.

Heresy was even more hateful than paganism.

After seeing the gift list, the attendants were clearly satisfied, they smiled and nodded, assuring the conservative elders that they would do their best to maneuver.

The Conservative elders looked at each other and went away with a thousand thanks.

When the several elders left, the attendants also smiled as they stroked their palms.

"I didn't expect these guys to be quite rich, swindling them and getting so much for nothing."

"Yeah, I wonder how much Yugito will give us, there?"

The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning had already internally determined that the next Raikage would be Yugito - at the very least, one of the Reform Faction led by Yugito.

As the Daimyo, however, his words had to be finalized once and for all, and he could not speak at will. Even if he had a candidate in mind, he still needed to be careful.

So there was room for these retainers to move around.

They wouldn't dare to change the Daimyo's decision, but the heart to make some big bucks out of it was not only there, but also big.

-They just bullied the fact that there were very few channels of contact between the ninja and the Daimyo, and it was impossible to ask directly about such matters.

When they were done eating from both ends, then they would announce the Daimyo's true orders is all.

They'd done things like this too many times.

"Speaking of which, the female ninja are really good. Especially when those little girls can clearly kill me with one finger, but there's no way to resist."

"You still dare to think about female ninja, aren't you afraid to die of exhaustion."

"Hahahahah... joke, it's a joke..."

... ...

For some reason, the retainer of the Land of Lightning's daimyo wanted to meet Yugito, as if he had something to say.

If it were before, it wouldn't hurt to meet.

But this time, Yugito really didn't want to see them.

-Who let a Demon King live in her cat's den.

This Demon King was usually very reasonable, but he likewise possessed the power to be unreasonable at any time.

Since the pitch had already been handed in, Yugito still thought it would be better not to make this one angry. Not to mention that... this guy was helping Kumo make money.

Before this goods lived in the cat's nest, Yugito really did not think that making money would be so easy.

Looking at this thick stack of liquor orders in front of him, Yugito was dumbfounded.

They took over that winery for a little more than a month, but the number of orders in front of them has already been lined up for the year after... why.

Yugito genuinely couldn't figure it out.

If you were to say it hard, there was nothing wrong with their wine.

Kumo Commercial Department is not bad in ability and conducted careful investigation before the acquisition. Moreover, the big wine dealer wanted to sell it quickly, so he was extremely honest and did not do any tricks. He really sold it together with everyone.

In order to get rid of it as soon as possible, he even left part of the inventory, so that Kumo can really take over that is open.

Yugito had tasted those wines, and although the drinks themselves were only low to mid-range, the quality was by no means questionable... It was just such a wine, so how did it suddenly burst into flames?

"Because of my scandal, and that viral marketing."

The weather was getting colder and colder, and Makoto was curled up like a boneless cat in the quilted oven of Yugito's cat's nest.

Next to him, lying on all fours, was the unrighteous two-tailed kitty cat.

"Just because of that?"

"Yeah, just because."

"I feel like an idiot... obviously worked so hard before... so it turns out that money is to be earned this way?"

"I also can't figure it out ah, why some people shout out a family member, and someone is really stupid to buy some inferior products at a high price... Humans, it's amazing, isn't it."

With the development of the times, the people of the Naruto world have gradually realized the importance of advertisements and tag-alongs. But honestly, advertising in the Naruto world was still not very mature.

Like the time of the Boruto era, Inuzuka Kiba, a thick browed one, has brought his own dog to sell dog food on TV and make endorsements.

However, in this era, such a thing was unthinkable.

Faced with Shikaku's unscrupulous viral marketing, they were immediately confused with almost zero armor.

Who has ever seen the wave of terrifying advertisements that appear on telephone poles, elevators, and even in supermarkets as soon as you turn on the TV, regardless of TV series or movies...

For a while, a certain type of drink that was brought up by the scandal of Makoto and Terumi Mei had completely filled people's lives.

Of course, this kind of messing around had undoubtedly caused a great deal of resentment while consuming vast amounts of money... But Makoto didn't care.

Those three bosses who had borrowed money didn't care either.

They would be better off if Makoto never repaid the money.

And naturally, all of the benefits generated between sales were gained by Kumo.

In the long run, this is certainly not as good as CAD. But for Kumo's current disastrous economy... it's as comfortable as wearing a brand new pair of underwear for the New Year!

Yugito shook her head, saying that she couldn't figure out what consumers were thinking.

Still, the money coming in made the kitty cat happy.

She was thinking of taking this opportunity to get closer to Makoto, but Makoto coldly continued to maintain the distance by blocking the middle of the two with her Nibi.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Please don't lean over, I'm only interested in rushing smelly black stockings after exercising."

...Yugito's body didn't have that intoxicating sweet smell, and Makoto didn't like to get too close to such a female.

If he genuinely wanted to find a woman, it was just too easy, and he could totally play the consort selection bit.

I don't know how many people pondered that they could replace Kotobukuro.

But he didn't like it.

Yugito couldn't figure out what was wrong with the guy, but instead of blindly continuing to try, she went on to adult topics.

"In that case, with this income, I can also explain to everyone..."

Money couldn't solve all problems, but it could solve most of them. After having money to lubricate them, the Kumo ninja's resistance should also be much smaller, right?

In the end, establishing the Land of Ninja would be beneficial to all ninja.

However, Makoto shook his head and wasn't prepared to meet with the Kumo people just like that.

"You don't have enough prestige yet, now is not the best time."

"Then when is it?"

"Let's buy insurance for everyone first."

"...Insurance? We Kumo never have..."

"That's why it's important to buy it now."

There was no insurance for Kumo ninja.

In fact, insurance companies already exist in this era, and with the power of the Ninja Village elders, the insurance companies dare not compensate for this or that - don't expect anything from the early capitalists.

The crux of the problem was that the death rate of ninja was simply too high.

Not to mention the two old hapless guys Nawaki and Dan, even the powerful and important Sannin have faced desperate situations many times during the war.

One time Jiraiya was seriously injured and couldn't fight anymore, and they were heavily surrounded. Aunt Snake wished to leave Jiraiya behind and the two of them escaped.

It was a war, and rationally speaking, it was better for one person to die than three. But Tsunade dead set against leaving her companions behind... Although in the end they were lucky and managed to escape with all three together, how many among the Ninja Village could be stronger and more important than the Sennin?

Except for freaks like Minato and Shodaime, any ninja must be prepared to die in battle at any time.

Customers like this who die at the drop of a hat are definitely not a good deal for insurance companies.

Unless... is willing to add money.

But the vast majority of ninjas are relatively poor.

For the same reason as insurance, banks were not too fond of lending to ninjas.

It got to the point where the ninja village simply stopped talking about insurance.

If something happens to a ninja, if the ninja village is in good condition, it will give out more or less a little pension. If the conditions are not good... just put up with it.

At present, the size of the ninja village situation is similar.

The only counter-example is the current Konoha.

But the situation in Konoha is different - because Makoto relied on the blue and green modifier to get an insurance company.

As long as the ninja entered the Konoha roster, they could immediately enjoy a full set of insurance.

It doesn't matter if you're injured, even if you're dead or disabled, the Konoha insurance company will cover you to the end.

This is not so much an insurance policy as it is part of the welfare of the Konohagakure.

...Konoha nowadays young girls and boys are popular outside for a reason, because once they marry them, even if they die halfway, the village's pension and the insurance company's payout will allow their children and partners to live on in a dignified manner.

This is something that other villages can't compare to in any way.

And for Kumogakure...

"So, you're going to buy everyone off with money?"

"Would you turn down a Kage who buys you a full insurance policy?"

Sooner or later, ninjas out on the line have to pounce. But if there really was a Kage who took such good care of himself... there was really no reason to refuse ah.

"That said... it would take a lot of money."

"Not a lot of money, but lots and lots of money."

"You have an idea again?"

"Well... but you have to promise me something."

"What?"

"This insurance company must be completely independent, even the Raikage can't take money from it, and the profits from it can only be used to pay for the ninja's insurance."

Yugito felt that he had no reason to refuse such a good thing.

"That's no problem, but I'm curious as to how you're going to do it... As you said, it's going to take lots and lots of money."

The rate of ninja deaths in battle was simply too high, and unification was after all something that would come later, and there were bound to be a number of great battles before unification, or else it wouldn't be enough to resolve the conflicts between the nations and the villages.

The consumption of this was not to be remembered by reason.

Yugito was curious as to what kind of industry could support such a large consumption.

"Let me tell you..."

Makoto came up and murmured softly in Yugito's ear.

"As long as..."
