I became rich through business in the ninja world

The boy who is selling looks small, but he is very articulate and thinks clearly.

Not only does he accurately calculate the cost of each guest, but he also responds to people's questions without any hesitation.

"Would you like a cup, beautiful sister? If you have two cups, I will give you an extra cup holder for your convenience. You can carry it, do you need it?"

Not only that, he also learned the full gift system without any teacher, which increased people's consumption desire and consumption rate.

Of course, what is called a "cup sleeve" is actually a small pocket with a handle made of bamboo leaves and grass rattan, which can just fit a bamboo tube containing milk tea.

Although I feel that two glasses may not be enough to finish it, but...

The female tourist looked at the exquisitely woven bag.

"I want two glasses."

Anyway, you can take it away, or give it to your friends to drink later.

Being able to carry it makes it easier for her to move around.

"Okay, here you go, I wish you a happy viewing."

The young man sent away the guest with a smile and went to greet the next one.

"...It's really amazing."

Even though I have been laughing for a long time, I can still maintain my enthusiasm when receiving the next guest.

Everyone else in the orphanage looked at the boy who was usually looked after as their little brother because of his small size and young age.

They really didn't expect that he still had this ability.

When it comes to physical work or endurance, they are very confident. But working like this, where you have to communicate with people with a smile all the time, just...

The children looked in awe.

This is probably the legendary social player.

Just when the atmosphere was gradually reaching a climax, a very angry girl came from the venue's broadcast.

"Konoha Village's first Ugetsu Shoten Cup Sugar Contest is about to begin. Staff, contestants, visitors and spectators are asked to return to the designated area and minimize their movements. Spectators with children please pay more attention to their children to avoid getting lost or injured. A peaceful and friendly environment requires everyone's efforts, thank you for your cooperation."

Following the sound of the announcement, the ninja volunteers who had been waiting at various entrances also came out one after another and began to guide the guests who had not yet found a seat or were still wandering around.

Facing the smiling ninjas, even if some people wanted to mess around again, they still dared to think about it in their hearts.

It was impossible to cause trouble, and they were not stupid enough to use their small bodies to attack the ninja's reach.

"We sincerely thank all the viewers for coming. I am the host of this conference, Uzumaki Kushina - without further ado, let us witness this exciting competition together. Everyone, please watch! Now to us Coming are the contestants from the youth group!”

The red-haired woman standing in the host position started the introduction passionately. Following the direction of her hand, people saw the boys and girls gathered together in twos and threes.

The oldest of them is twelve or thirteen years old, and the younger one is only six or seven years old. There are ninjas and non-ninjas among them, but no matter who they are, they are very confident and show off their strong demeanor.

"The first contestants are the non-ninja players. Although they are young, their skills are by no means weak!"

As soon as she finished speaking, dozens of children walked onto the stage.

The syrup was prepared in advance and placed around the ring for them to pick up.

"We will review it from three perspectives: aesthetics, innovation, and cleanliness."

While the young contestants were preparing, Kushina Uzumaki, the host, had already begun to introduce the relevant points.

"Sticking to your hands, falling to the ground, and being unable to form shapes will all be deducted points. Hokage-sama, what do you think?"

She said, handing the microphone in her hand to the Hokage who was sitting in the guest seat.

In addition to the Hokage, there were also several high-level officials of Konoha, other leading ninjas from the ninja village, and the hero Minato Namikaze sitting at the guest table.

Taking the phone, Naruto said with a smile.

"Of course I hope that all players will achieve good results under the premise of complying with the regulations. But even if you fail this time, it doesn't matter or be sad. Just treat it as a life experience - people who inherit the will of fire will not Defeated by one or two failures.”

"well said!"

Metkai, who had not yet come on stage, shouted.

"That's right! Life is made up of countless failures! As expected of Hokage-sama! I am so excited that I want to do another two thousand push-ups——"

"you shut up!"

Mitarashi Anko rolled her eyes.

I really don’t want to admit that I know this person.

The audience responded with warm applause.

Ugetsu, who was standing aside, saw that the response was good and waved Xin over.

"Give this to Miss Kushina."

She stuffed a note into Xin's hand, and then saw the boy as dexterous as a loach, coming to Uzumaki Kushina's side without being noticed by the audience, and handed over her note.

Although Uzumaki Kushina was a little surprised, she didn't show it on her face. She quickly glanced at the words on the note with the dexterity of a ninja, and then continued to speak.

"Next, representatives from various ninja villages who have come from far away will be invited to give congratulatory speeches!"

The outside ninjas obviously didn't expect this step, and they were a little panicked for a while. But after all, they are all ninjas who have experienced many battles, and they will not panic just because of an unexpected situation.

They quickly took the microphone, put on their business smiles and started speaking.

But after all, he spoke suddenly, and he was not a ninja who was usually good at this. The speeches of several people were quite short, maybe only two or three minutes in total, just in time for the contestants to finish their preparations.

"Okay, thank you very much for your speech." Uzumaki Kushina, who took back the microphone, announced loudly in a very enthusiastic voice.

“To prove our sincerity, we have also prepared an additional prize.”

As she said this, Asuma Sarutobi, who was temporarily caught working, walked up to the podium with the 'prize' in his hands.

"That's the autograph card signed by Namikaze Minato with the Hokage and yellow flash!"

If the players on the competition field were originally just looking forward to it, now they have turned into fanaticism and vigilance.

They stared closely at the signature card displayed by Sarutobi Asuma, their burning eyes seeming to set the signature card on fire.

Uzumaki Kushina's voice also sounded at the right time, "Then, I announce! The first group of the Children's Group of the Glucose Contest has officially begun!"

The children on the field also had sharp eyes and quickly started their actions.

Because it was the preliminary round, the children moved quickly and the review was also very fast.

Those children who couldn't get rid of the sticky and soft characteristics of sugar were quickly defeated. They either picked it here and there anxiously, or they chose to grab it with their hands in a hurry.

Just like this, they walked off the field one by one. These eliminated children either had red eyes or clenched their fists.

I experienced the cruelty of competition prematurely at a young age. But this is not necessarily a good thing. If you see the cruelty of the world early, you can better adjust your mentality and face the wind and rain in the future.

The remaining children advanced smoothly and walked aside to wait.

Soon, the competition came to the ninja group.

Compared with ordinary people, ninjas are 'veteran warriors' who have seen all kinds of storms.

Metkai and Mitarashi Anko also took a deep breath and stood on the stage.

at last!

The day has finally arrived!

Metkai clenched his bandaged hands excitedly.

While he was excited by the attention of the people, he looked around for his fateful enemy.

After a short search, his eyes lit up

"Kakashi! Come on! It's time for a showdown!"

Kakashi, who was exhausted and just took time out to drink some water, "..."

What I am saying is that my name is not Kakashi. Is it still too late to change my name to something like Kakadong?

But Metkay seemed not to notice the strangeness at all, "Come on! This is our fateful battle! It's time to decide who is the real world's best sugar star!"

He shouted so loudly that he couldn't help but feel angry.

however……

"The staff will not participate in the competition."

Uzumaki Kushina said while holding the microphone.

"what?"

The jar-headed boy in a green outfit seemed to have been struck by lightning.

How, how could this happen!

He works so hard! So hard! Just to have a showdown with his old enemy Kakashi, but now they say he won't participate in the war at all! ?

"Stop talking!"

Mitarashi Anko couldn't help but close her eyes.

She didn't even dare to look at the contestants from other Ninja Villages - this time they were really embarrassed and thrown outside.

"Although Kakashi is not participating in the battle, there are other strong men from everywhere."

As Kakashi's master wife, Uzumaki Kushina naturally stepped forward to rescue him.

"And this is the time to decide who is number one in the village."

Of course, being number one in the village is more attractive than just facing off against Kakashi.

"Number one in the village..."

Metkai recited it silently, and then his eyes lit up as if they were on fire.

"Okay! Then be the first in the village!"

"Please wake up quickly and don't waste time!"

Mitarashi Anko really wanted to kick the person out.

Despite some interruptions, the game went on smoothly.

And Metkai did live up to the training during this period of time. It started at a super fast pace, and his hand speed was so fast that multiple afterimages appeared.

Coupled with his focused expression and the voiceover of "Hey ha", it is also quite eye-catching.

"So fast!"

People around him exclaimed.

"Is this the Metkai of Rapidity? It really deserves its reputation!"

"how did you do that!"

People exclaimed.

Seeing that Metkai had taken the lead, the people around him began to show their talents.

"Look at me!"

Mitarai Anko also started her performance.

She is almost the exact opposite of Metkai. Every move she makes can be clearly seen and extremely smooth.

During the tugging, the originally sticky glutinous rice liquid could be retracted and retracted as freely as her arms.

Showing beauty in every move.

The original amber color quickly turned into a silvery texture and color, making it particularly shiny.

"Oh! This looks good!"

"What's that over there? A honeycomb!"

A spindle shape was forming between the hands of an inconspicuous young man with black glasses.

"Oh? What is that, a deer?"

"This is a butterfly!"

Other participants also began to show off their power at this time.

For a while, people actually had the illusion that their eyes were not enough.

This is good-looking, and that is interesting.

"Look at my silver snake!"

Mitarai Anko was the first to complete her work.

She took advantage of the fact that syrup can turn silvery white when stirred, and used wooden sticks as supports to create a coiled silver snake.

Different from those cruel and cruel snakes, this arrogant snake is very noble and beautiful, subverting people's perception of snakes.

"My Queen's Nest."

The boy in sunglasses also completed his work.

Unlike Mitarashi Anko, he mostly maintained the original color of the sugar syrup and made the honeycomb.

Then garnish it with a small amount of silver-white sugar syrup, just like bees coming in and out. This ingenuity is also very amazing.

Other boys and girls also completed their works.

Finally, Metkai, who had been busy since the beginning, also stopped and revealed the arm-length exhibit in his hand.

but……

"what is this?"

No matter how you look at it, it looks like a rotating inverted triangle?

"This is Konoha Cyclone!"

Metkai announced loudly.

Metkai knew that he actually didn't have much aesthetic ability, and those delicate tasks were not what he was good at. So he chose to make what he was best at and most familiar with.

——The whirlwind that blew up when he used Taijutsu.

The wind whipped up by his fists and feet swirled around him.

It is the existence that I am most familiar with.

The scene was very quiet for a while.

It was so quiet that Metkai, who was originally confident, became uneasy.

Compared with others, do you seem a little weird?

"This is a tornado!"

Someone screamed.

"Silver tornado! So handsome!"

"Although I also like the snow-white snake, this tornado looks more powerful."

"You can actually think of making a tornado!"

People were discussing it enthusiastically, and were very interested in Tang Xi's ability to perform in so many ways.

They also had a supportive and praising attitude towards the ‘Silver Tornado’ produced by Metkai.

In fact, among ninjas, Metkai has always been an outlier.

While he can get the job done, he's a mess with ninjutsu and genjutsu. Just like a student who has just started to learn ninjutsu. Therefore, even though he has extremely superb physical skills, he has always been more or less discriminated against among the ninja community.

It's almost impossible to take him with him in competitions and other events.

But the Glucose Contest is different.

Because what tangshi requires is control over the body and tangshi, and it has nothing to do with chakra or ninjutsu.

Even if Metkai's ninjutsu and genjutsu were weak, no one would care about them. Let him put all his passion into it.

As long as you work hard, you will be rewarded.

Just do it and it will definitely be different.

Unlike the other children who were laughing, Metkai's eyes were a little moist.

But he quickly blinked away the glimmer of water and announced loudly.

"This is just the beginning! Next time I will definitely make the biggest whirlwind in Konoha! Just wait and see, Kakashi!"

The atmosphere reached a new climax again.

After the junior group, the youth group is the real highlight.

Because when it comes to the youth group, in addition to the famous Uchiha from Konoha, there are also contestants from other villages.

Although these Uchihas all have pale faces, dull expressions and dark circles under their eyes...

"Wow, what happened to the Uchiha people? They look so haggard."

"How is that possible? It must be because they stayed up late to prepare for the battle!"

As soon as someone raised an opinion in front of him, there was immediately a plausible rebuttal from behind.

"They are Uchiha! How can they be tired and haggard!"

"That's right."

After all, that was an Uchiha.

The Uchiha who heard this "..."

For the first time, the Uchiha people not only did not feel happy when they heard other people's compliments, but also had weak expressions on their faces, hoping that they would ignore them.

Everyone in the village is familiar and at ease with them, but things are different outside the village.

Not only are they unfamiliar, but they all look very powerful.

The first thing to be held is the ‘wild card round’ – that is, a competition between foreign participants.

In fact, according to Ugetsu's original idea, he planned to push them directly into the semi-finals.

After all, it’s not easy to come all the way, and the time it takes to get in contact with the syrup is long. Maybe the situation hasn't been adjusted yet.

However, perhaps the Ninjas are addicted to competition or have cancer per capita. When they heard that they were going to be exempted from the competition, they were not happy at first.

‘Can’t you see us? ’

'Compare! You have to compete, if you don’t compete, you won’t be able to do it. Who can say no is your grandson! ’

'Konoha has already competed, how can we not compete? ’

‘Don’t say what is fair or unfair, not letting us compete is the biggest injustice! ’

——So the final decision was that the wild card competition, that is, the campaign competitions in other divisions outside the main division, would proceed as usual.

This is how today’s scene of ‘strong powers’ stands.

Sunagakure Village, Iwagakure Village, Kumogakure Village, and Kirigakure Village...the elites of the four great ninja villages gathered here.

""It's not too late to regret quitting. ""

"Hmph, you should tell yourself this."

"Oh? Let's see who is the lost dog."

People from different ninja villages who already disliked each other naturally started targeting each other.

For ninjas, as long as there is competition, it is hostility.

Since they are enemies, it would be foolish to say harsh words and ridicule them.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder among several people from different ninja villages became stronger, the spirits of the people in Konoha also became much tense.

"Do I need to stop it?"

The curly-haired boy moved closer to Ugetsu.

As the organizer, I would not want to see anyone causing trouble, but Miss Ugetsu has not expressed her position, so Uchiha Shisui had to ask for permission.

"No, chatting before the game is a normal part of the game. If there is no harsh words to each other, where would the passion come from?"

Competition competition requires a sense of tense confrontation.

If you are all good and I am good, what else is there to see?

——Of course, one of the fun is having one party slapped in the face afterwards, but it’s better not to say it openly.

After all, ninjas still value face and reputation.

If the fun is ruined by talking for a moment, it will be a loss.

"understood."

Although Uchiha Shisui didn't know how such a meaningless and explosive conversation could become part of the 'session', since the organizer, Miss Ugetsu, said don't worry about it, he stopped mentioning it.

Anyway, if there is any problem in the village, the ninjas in the village will take action in time.

And just as the audience expected.

As soon as this group of contestants came forward, the atmosphere of the entire arena was completely different.

It is different from the contestants in the village who look up but never look down, and at best compete with each other.

These ninjas from other villages had all fought on the battlefield not long ago.

Although the Glucose Contest is not a battlefield, as long as it is a competition, there will be winners and losers, and if there are winners and losers, someone is destined to lose.

Then the meaning is completely different.

Red sand scorpions surrounded the surroundings, and people from other ninja villages were almost sitting and doing the same thing as him.

They all had serious expressions and looked around intently.

They all have a common consciousness

This is not a toy or food contest.

This is the continuation of the ninja war that just ended, a battle of dignity.

"What is happening now is the 'wild card competition' of contestants from the other four major ninja villages. They are all the elites of each ninja village - now, let's ask these elites from afar to present us with a wonderful competition!"

As Uzumaki Kushina's loud voice fell, the contestants from the four major ninja villages also started to move.

Unlike the junior group, who took it and then started showing it off, they started showing off their skills from the point of taking it.

There is a puppet to get it on your behalf.

There are also those who use body skills to act.

People like Iwagakure who were good at earth escape even used earth escape ninjutsu to show off their skills, and used earth to 'bring' the box containing the syrup in front of them.

"Hey! What are you doing!"

A ninja from Hidden Cloud Village was unhappy - he was standing properly, but the ground beneath his feet suddenly surged like waves, almost causing the candy in his hand to fall to the ground. Who could bear this?

"Hey, it's just a little trick." A female ninja from Iwagakure raised her eyebrows, "No, no, you have to care about this little thing?"

"……hateful!"

Despite the impact, everyone is a ninja.

If they really make a fuss over such a trivial matter, it will only make people think that they are not good enough.

The ninjas of Hidden Cloud Village swallowed their complaints into their mouths.

But he was not to be outdone.

crackle.

A bolt of lightning just hit the box containing the syrup in the hands of the ninja of Iwagakure Village.

"you!?"

Several contestants from Iwagakure Village immediately looked over.

This time, the people in Yunyin Village seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Oh, in such a big place, why does thunder only hit you? Don't think you have done something bad and deserve God's punishment."

The faces of the ninjas in Iwagakure Village suddenly dropped.

Next, just like a performance show, you can see fancy ‘scenes’ from time to time.

Regardless of whether it was accidental damage or not, the four major ninja villages were eventually implicated.

But they are worthy of being the elites selected by each ninja village. Even so, they are still very stable.

...At least the candy in my hand is stable.

As for his hair turning into an afro, his clothes turning into a beggar's outfit and even his legs sinking into the mud.

Those are all minor issues.

What ninja hasn't encountered this a few times in his life?

"Look over there! It's so fast! Why does it feel like their syrup is diluted compared to others!"

They were talking about the sugar syrup of Kirigakure Village ninjas.

The sugar in the hands of the girl ninja in blue was flowing like water.

From top to bottom, there are deep and shallow.

"Is it a waterfall? It's a waterfall!"

People marveled.

"It's probably a ninjutsu that uses water to mix it in, diluting the sugar and making it thinner."

Uchiha Shisui quickly figured out the clue and whispered into Ugetsu's ear to explain.

"What about that one?"

Ugetsu pointed at another 'sugar exhibit' that already had a human-like outline.

"That's the work of Sunagakure Village...perhaps it uses puppet-making technology."

The curly-haired boy paused, and then gave Uzuki a brief explanation about puppet masters and puppetry.

In addition to briefly explaining some characteristics, it also highlighted several famous puppet masters in Sunagakure Village.

For example, Grandma Chiyo, and another example is Scorpion.

After hearing this, Yuyue's eyes lit up.

"So they are all good at making puppets?"

"It's not a doll, it's a puppet."

"Don't worry about this kind of detail. Does that mean they can actually make realistic and moving dolls?"

"...You can understand it this way."

After all, Miss Ugetsu is not a ninja, and Uchiha Shisui does not prepare her to have a comprehensive and authoritative understanding of the puppet master's situation.

Juvenile flood discharge generally releases water.

If you just understand the concept, this won't be a big problem.

"understood."

Yuyue touched his chin thoughtfully, feeling that he could advance some plans that were originally delayed.

On the field, the competition has truly entered a fierce stage.

In addition to their respective works being almost complete, they also have to be wary of some inconspicuous and miraculous craftsmanship from 'nature'.

including but not limited to.

The ground beneath his feet suddenly shattered.

a bolt from the blue.

Drops of water appear suddenly.

Some somehow spread steel wire and sand all over the ground.

A playful sugar-thin contest actually made them compete in an offensive and defensive posture.

But because it was intense enough, the audience was hooked.

Just a little thirsty.

But it’s troublesome to go out and buy them, and you might miss classic scenes.

Besides, I have a good seat in the front row now. What if I go out and come back and disappear?

The audience was very confused.

But Yakushi Kabuto, who had been waiting at the edge and carefully observing the audience, pushed up his reflective glasses and said hello behind him.

"It's time for us to take the stage!"

"Oh!"

Several boys and girls behind them carrying baskets responded excitedly.

"The audience is thirsty because of the excitement. This is the best moment for us to perform - everything, please!"

"Leave it to us Kabuto."

Teenagers and girls who had received emergency training responded one after another, but some were a little hesitant.

"Kabuto, is it appropriate for us to sell the plain water we drink at this price...?"

"What's inappropriate?"

Kabuto Yakushi, who was still young but had already begun to take charge of the operation, raised his head.

"You have to remember, what we are selling at this time is not simply water, but demand."

"People can just spend a small amount of money to meet their needs right where they are - isn't that what they've earned?"

Other children...that makes sense! But why do you think there's something weird about it?
