Everyone else has been rewarded, and the real hero Yuyue will naturally not forget it.

First up was Itachi.

She didn't have the foolish idea of ​​"just give the kids some candy and toys, no matter how much money they give to the kids." Instead, she treated everyone equally and gave them generous "project bonuses."

"For me?"

Uchiha Itachi blinked, a look of surprise appeared on his expressionless face.

"That's right, your bonus can be saved or spent as you wish."

“Saving it for later is a good option, but it’s also nice to buy some gifts for your parents or friends.”

Seeing his confused look, Ugetsu suggested proactively.

Uchiha Itachi nodded thoughtfully, holding the hand containing the red envelope with the bonus, but tightened it unconsciously.

As the son of the Uchiha clan leader, Itachi was certainly not short of money. But this was also the first time that he got something without relying on his family or the name of 'Uchiha'.

It is something that belongs only to him and cannot be obtained if he does not work hard.

"It's amazing."

Uchiha Shisui also smiled and praised.

The affirmation from an outstanding member of the same race made Itachi's face look more joyful.

But he soon controlled his mood with self-control far beyond that of his peers.

In Miss Ugetsu, I actually did the least because of my young age. The reason why I was able to get this and the bonus was mostly because Miss Ugetsu was very generous.

It's not that he really took on so many important enough tasks.

Uchiha Itachi's hand that grasped the prize moved again.

Therefore, he should always remind himself to work harder and practice harder.

So that you can soon become a person who can fully deserve this reward.

Xin, who also received the project award, rarely smiled and looked at the project bonus in his hand in a daze.

In fact, in comparison, his and Sarutobi Asuma's project bonuses are the least.

But even if it was less, it was still real money given to him.

It's not the task money, but the 'reward' he gets because his own work is recognized.

But he deserved it.

Because he knew that from the beginning, he was the 'spy' who broke into it. He couldn't even make up his mind with a serious face like Itachi.

He is a traitor.

He...isn't worth it.

But seeing Miss Yuyue and others looking happy, he couldn't tell.

No, he couldn't say anything at all.

It is so simple to smile, but at this moment, the corner of the mouth is like a heavy weight hanging from the corner of the mouth, which cannot be lifted no matter how hard it is.

He could only look at the happy crowd around him in a daze, and silently restrained his sense of existence.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki also received their bonuses.

In comparison, Uzumaki Kushina's is a bit thicker.

Although Namikaze Minato also contributed a lot, he was on the Hokage side. As the host, Uzumaki Kushina is truly one of her own this time.

So what she got was also a big red envelope.

"Look, I have more than you."

She waved the red envelope in her hand in front of Namikaze Minato like a show off.

"Yes, yes, because you really did a lot of work!"

The blond young man smiled good-naturedly.

"It's amazing, Kushina."

"I want you to tell me!"

Finally, the two heaviest and largest red envelopes were given to Uchiha Shisui and Hatake Kakashi.

Although Ugetsu had already paid a large annual fee to hire Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Shisui's performance also proved that he was really worth the money.

Yuyue felt that it was unreasonable not to give him a bonus.

"Thank you for your hard work."

She smiled at the two of them.

"……what."

Hatake Kakashi's half-open dead fish eyes suddenly widened.

He actually had some premonition that he would get a bonus, but when the bonus was given to him and Miss Ugetsu said, "Thank you for your hard work," he still couldn't help but feel a little dazed...and then excited.

He thought she didn't know their hard work.

But now it seems that she is actually quite fair in seeing all their hard work during this period.

The silver-haired boy was a little happy, but also a little sad.

--if.

If only his teammates were here.

It will definitely be more lively.

In a daze, he seemed to see the two people again.

I blended in without any barriers, I was happier than anyone else, and I clapped my hands more happily than anyone else.

The young man was stunned.

This was the first time he thought of those two people not in pain.

The only things that clearly appeared in front of him in the past were Obito lying under the boulder, and Lin whose heart was pierced by himself.

The two of them lost their warmth and life, as if they were blaming themselves.

‘Why didn’t you protect Lin?’

‘You must protect the village that you must protect even if you kill me. ’

Time and time again, he was awakened by such questioning and urging. With the only guilt brought about by living an ignoble existence, he didn't even dare to recall it anymore. He could only choose to escape in embarrassment, trying to numb himself with work or something else.

He looked at the people around him, then at his teacher and his wife.

But obviously... there were many happy things in the past days.

How could I have forgotten it?

Kakashi lowered his head, covering up the water that had suddenly appeared in his eyes.

As for the winner of the biggest prize and the all-around player of Shin·24k, Uchiha Shisui.

He behaves like a textbook excellent employee.

Thank you to your colleagues and leaders.

After sublimating the hard work, I also thought about the future a little bit.

The truth is that the purpose of the speech at the celebration party was made clear.

Even Yuyue, who has experienced many battles, was moved by such employees and such thoughtful speeches.

Really, what kind of ninja do you think you are?

This is exactly the boss's thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket. If something happens to such a person on the battlefield, it will be the boss's loss.

Blood loss!

Ugetsu even felt that he could fight for a business in the future, but he had to keep Uchiha Shisui, a little cotton-padded jacket.

You have to find a way to keep him, at least separate him from the killing missions.

Were those people killing Konoha ninjas?

Of course not, it was her right-hand arm that was injured!

After the awards ceremony is over, it’s naturally time for a happy barbecue. Because Ugetsu made a reservation in advance, there was enough meat for everyone to grill even at night.

Hatake Kakashi, who also received the red envelope, adjusted his mood at this time and joined the eating party.

The roast beef with its sweet oil is really delicious.

Pork and chicken are also good, but when it comes to barbecue, it should be roast beef.

It's really been a long time since he sat in a restaurant and had a good meal like this.

In the past, I was not in the mood, and everything I put in my mouth tasted like chewing gum. Eating is just an action necessary to survive.

Later, there was no time at all.

As soon as I open my eyes, I rush to work and walk home in the dark night.

There are still shops open somewhere.

Kakashi Hatake didn't realize for a long time that delicious food could be so touching.

It would be great if he could get off work at this time tomorrow, and he could come back for another meal.

Others also forgot about their hard work and the complicated emotions in their hearts, and devoted themselves to the happy meat-eating session.

Let tomorrow's selves think about tomorrow's things. Today they just need to be happy.

The lively and sumptuous celebration lasts until the zenith of the moon.

Although there was no alcohol as there were few adults present, the atmosphere was still intoxicating for those present.

Yuyue didn't even know when he broke up and went back.

The previous excitement subsided, and sleepiness and exhaustion immediately surrounded her whole body.

She blinked drowsily, then blinked again, before she noticed that she was lying on the back of the curly-haired boy.

The boy's body temperature was transmitted through the clothes, making him warm and lulling him to sleep.

"Are you awake? It doesn't matter if you sleep a little longer."

The boy's voice reached his ears.

"It'll be here soon."

Yuyue yawned lazily, and really didn't want to move, so she hugged the young man's shoulders tightly.

However, surface work still needs to be done.

So she asked softly:

"Am I not heavy?"

"It's very light." As a rare high EQ among Uchiha, Uchiha Shisui certainly would not let go at this time.

As he spoke, he nudged the girl on his back.

"It's lighter than the luggage I carried before."

There was a slight itch behind the boy's ears, and then the girl's vague voice came.

The temperature at night is cooler than during the day, and the night breeze brings a slight chill when it blows over your body. But this coolness cannot take away the girl's sleepiness.

"Then you are bullying the children too much. This is abuse."

At the end of the sentence, the girl's voice was almost too soft to be heard.

However, Uchiha Shisui smiled.

--amazing.

Probably only Miss Ugetsu would treat herself and the others as children.

The young boy Shisui couldn't help but burst into laughter.

‘Uchiha Shisui’ is also a special existence to the entire Uchiha.

In addition to the fact that he inherited the bloodline of Uchiha Mirror and was highly anticipated from the beginning, it is also because he has shown unique talents since he was a child.

Therefore, even before he became sensible, he had already begun to crawl around in the pile of ninja tools.

To him, everything a ninja needs to learn is as natural to him as drinking water and eating.

The entire Uchiha was excited about this.

Because they need such a 'genius' who will have the power to change the situation of the war in the future to stabilize Uchiha's status.

Strong ninjas are respected. Only in this way can they have more capital in future negotiations with the Hokage and even the elders.

'Uchiha Shisui' is the main card played by Uchiha.

Therefore, from the beginning of his cognition, he has been a 'ninja Uchiha Shisui', not a 'child Uchiha Shisui'.

Uchiha Shisui will never be dissatisfied with such a life, but...

Just the feeling of being treated like a 'child' is not bad either.

——Even though Miss Ugetsu is still just a child.

Maybe you don’t really understand the difference between ‘ninja’ and ‘other people’.

But the young man felt that there was nothing wrong with this.

If Miss Ugetsu can remain ignorant and do what she likes wholeheartedly, it will prove that this world is a gentle world that allows her to do so.

And Uchiha Shisui is willing to fight to make such a world appear.

"Good night, Miss Ugetsu."

Please have a good rest.

See you tomorrow.

Ugetsu returned home.

Normally, after the event is successfully concluded and the happy celebration banquet is followed, it should naturally be followed by a comfortable sleep and adequate rest.

After all, no one with a right mind would come out to be annoying in such a situation.

——This is what Yuyue thought until she was woken up by the persistent knocking on the door at five o'clock in the morning and saw a living person standing outside.

"Do you know what time it is?"

Yuyue, who came out wearing a coat, looked at the handsome red-haired boy in front of her with a gloomy face.

The boy is very good-looking and has a good temperament. He is still an elite in the ninja world that she was very optimistic about before.

But these characteristics that Yuyue once admired could not save her current bad mood.

Facing Ugetsu's gloomy face with low blood pressure, he just took out a scroll as a matter of course.

"I'm here to hand over my plan."

He said and tilted his head.

"Didn't you say before ten o'clock?"

Then shouldn’t the sooner you can show your excellence?

Yuyue:......

‘Any normal person would not come out to be annoying at this time’

But Ninja, he obviously can't judge by normal people.

Yuyue rubbed his throbbing forehead and took two deep breaths.

-This is the hen that laid my golden eggs.

Can't be angry, can't be angry.

Yuyue quickly went through the IP plan of "Storm Ninja" in her mind, thinking about the prospects and benefits, and then finally calmed down and let people in.

"I accepted the plan first, but to be fair, I need to receive Mr. Orochimaru's plan before conducting the evaluation."

"It doesn't matter."

Scorpios are very confident in their own plans and naturally don't care about waiting for others.

On the other side, Orochimaru had the same idea.

He admitted that the Crimson Sand Scorpion's puppetry technique was probably the strongest in the world.

But let’s talk about research on a certain project.

As a senior, he has a lot to say.

Know that there are many aspects to a project, not just a simple matter of ‘making a puppet’.

Orochimaru soon arrived at the Ugetsu store.

"You're here, please come in."

Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and a furry head was revealed.

Uchiha Shisui smiled and won him in.

Orochimaru's eyes couldn't help but turn around this young ninja who had only heard his name but had little contact with him in the past.

Should I say he is worthy of being an Uchiha?

It was not surprising to notice someone coming, but it happened at such a young age, and he could greet him so appropriately without being noticed by himself.

This is amazing.

Orochimaru's eyes flashed with interest.

Uchiha's bloodline, indeed...

The Ugetsu store is not big. From the main door, you go around a porch and you come to the area at the back that is used as a living room and packing room.

To his surprise, the Red Sand Scorpion was already sitting there, and seemed to have been waiting for a while.

Of course, in fact, it took a long time.

After all, he was the one who woke up the sleeping Ugetsu.

"Sunagakure Village is so positive."

"It's better than Konoha being passive and slacking off."

Scorpio didn't even raise his eyelids.

"Does it mean that because the commission was generated in our own village, Konoha belongs to us?"

He finally looked up.

A sarcastic smile appeared on his handsome face.

"How arrogant."

Orochimaru snorted coldly.

"That's just lip service."

Seeing that the words between these two people were showing signs of forming a perpetual motion machine, Yuyue quickly interrupted them and got to the point.

Competition is a good thing, but if competition replaces purpose, it will not be a good thing for Party A like her.

"Then, let's go ask you all to present your plans."

Scorpion and Orochimaru looked at each other and put the scroll on the table almost at the same time.

Then the eyeball battle began again as to who could start first.

Ugetsu: Why is this ninja so competitive?

She looked at Uchiha Shisui on the side.

The young man went out with a smile and came back with a note in one hand.

"One of the strips of paper is dyed. If you choose the dyed one, show it first."

"Then I'm welcome."

Orochimaru was the first to confidently choose one.

Unfortunately, it's white.

Then of course there is no need to choose next.

Xia Qing glanced at Orochimaru, and then opened his scroll.

There are not only pictures on it, but also many written annotations as if caring for Ugetsu, an ordinary person.

Scorpios are very confident.

but……

"Are you a puppet?"

Ugetsu saw disassembly drawings of many separate parts.

As far as ‘dolls’ or ‘figures’ are concerned, the amount of work feels quite large.

The size doesn't quite resemble what Ugetsu thinks of as a 'small toy'.

"Yes, and it still works."

Xie nodded, feeling a little satisfied that Miss Yuyue could see the mechanism at a glance.

So he also gave a rare explanation in person.

"For example, this part can fly out. It's very similar to the taijutsu of a ninja."

"The mechanism here allows the Qianbon hidden inside to spread out and attack."

“This part can also be disassembled directly for use.”

After all, it is a ninja toy, so how can it not have ninja features?

Scorpio naturally thought.

——It’s not so much a doll or puppet of the ‘Feng Yun Ninja’ as it is a ‘weapon’ wearing the skin of a certain ninja.

Transformers pales in comparison to that.

Scorpion doesn't talk much, but almost all of it is on point, which is enough to prove how attentive he is.

However, after hearing his words, Orochimaru just narrowed his eyes and sneered.

"Grandstanding."

The smile on Scorpio's face immediately collapsed. He was not furious, but said coldly:

"Then I wonder if Orochimaru-sama has any advice?"

"Since it's a doll, of course it has to be 'alive' as its selling point - in the final analysis, yours is just a transformation of a weapon."

Orochimaru said, confidently unfolding the scroll.

There are not so many disassembled modules in his plan.

The dolls look like normal-sized dolls.

But there is also a problem, that is...

"Why do these dolls... need to be cultivated?"

That slender barrel-shaped column looks like a culture tank in a science fiction movie?

"Art must have life."

Since it is said to be a ninja, it must be more vivid.

Therefore, Orochimaru chose a type of mycelium to cultivate the basic form, which can then be adjusted according to needs later.

Will people just be satisfied with an ordinary puppet? Isn't that everywhere, and any carpenter can do it?

"Eternity is art."

Before Ugetsu could raise his head full of questions, Scorpion faced off against Orochimaru.

"Living things will be lost due to trivial matters or accidents, but the puppets made will not. Even if they are damaged, they only need to be replaced."

"But it's just a pile of wood without anyone touching it."

Orochimaru retorted.

"The limits of wood have been limited from the day it was designed and made, but life is different."

Scorpion is not to be outdone:

“If something is lost casually, it can’t even be preserved, so how can we talk about art?”

Seeing that his Party B was about to turn into a philosopher and confront each other, Yuyue hurriedly interrupted the two of them again.

"Ahem, let's talk about the advantages of each first."

At this point, Scorpion and Orochimaru have united their front.

They all looked at Yuyue in unison, with expressions like 'Isn't this obvious at a glance?'

Ugetsu: ...If you use this performance to attract investment and bid, you will definitely not be able to pass the first level.

At the same time, Yuyue began to reflect on whether his demand list was too simple.

She wrote 'exquisite, lifelike, and easy to obtain materials'. At that time, she wanted to have fewer restrictions and see what kind of performance the ninjas could do. In case there was something she hadn't thought of or it was more subtle than she originally thought. What's the idea?

After all, she is just a ninja who has become a monk on the way, and her understanding of this world (especially materials and crafts) is definitely not as good as theirs.

She never expected that these two people would be here to make inventions for her.

And it doesn’t look normal no matter how you look at it.

At least Ugetsu himself wouldn't want to keep either of the two at home.

She felt a headache and pressed her forehead.

"Although we are ninjas, we are facing people from all over the world, whether ninjas or ordinary people."

The two of them were immediately blindfolded.

Obviously he didn't expect to hear such an answer.

Yuyue was also stunned.

"Haven't you ever thought about selling your products and hard work to the whole world?"

Two people:? Never thought about this.

Can it still be like this? Isn't this a small toy sold only to children in Ninja Village?

Both of them were stunned for a moment.

Born and raised as ninjas, they have long been accustomed to thinking about work in a ninja way. Work is work, and tasks are tasks.

The means to complete the task is just a means.

They never thought that these could have other meanings and functions.

So when Ugetsu said, 'This job has something to do with ninjas' (people with IP or not don't understand), their first reaction was, 'This is something for ninjas', it's a mission.

But for ordinary people?

And to the whole world?

Does she really know how big the world is? Do you know how many conflicts, frictions and obstacles there are between several ninja villages?

Yuyue's face expressed an expression of resentment: "You want technology and aesthetics, so why don't you broaden your horizons and take a longer view?"

"Now that the war is over, going to the battlefield is no longer something ninjas have to do, so you can definitely start a second career. Don't you want your skills and your names to be resounding all over the world?"

Scorpion & Orochimaru: I think about it, but is it possible?

The two of them looked at the girl in front of them intently, but her speech was not over yet:

"At this time, when everything is in ruins and everything is starting over, it is the best time for you to seize the opportunity." Yuyue paused for two seconds, and then continued after feeling full of emotions, "You have With the technology that others don’t have, the connections and resources at hand—whether it’s materials or intelligence from various places, are you still afraid that you won’t be able to do this?”

Scorpion narrowed his eyes.

Orochimaru raised his eyebrows:

"You mean, you want us to go into business?"

"I didn't say that ninjas can't do business as a side job." Ugetsu didn't answer directly, but changed the concept, "And you are not just doing business, but for the village behind you, and even to find someone else for all ninjas. There is a way.”

???

Even Uchiha Shisui opened his eyes wide at this time.

He also couldn't figure out why the work of a doll would involve the village and all ninjas.

It’s not like I’ve never seen someone famous for their products—for example, Ichiraku Ramen in Konoha is a shop that’s famous throughout the village.

But the village? What does this have to do with the village?

Faced with people's expressions of doubt, wavering, and disbelief, Yuyue didn't panic at all.

She had seen many such performances in the past, and she immediately opened her mouth and came up with a series of unclear interpretations:

"Industry can drive the economy, and now the industry of Ninja Village only has a single ninja economy, which is very dangerous - once there is any problem with the ninjas, or if the outside world reduces the number of entrustments due to various reasons, the economy of Ninja Village will be affected. Severe damage, thus affecting the entire village.”

The expressions of the two of them also changed several times, from disapproval at the beginning to thoughtful and even vague expectation. They stopped thinking about suppressing the talent's work at first, and instead listened carefully to Ugetsu's ideas.

"And I think this is very unfair to the village and to all the powerful and skilled ninjas. With your strength, you are fully capable of bringing new industries to the entire ninja village and forming a new Breadwinner."

"...Only one doll?"

Orochimaru glanced at the two people's designs.

Although he accepted this request and really put some thought into it, to be honest, he just thought it was a gadget.

Some random toys for children.

"How can this be said to be 'a doll'?" Ugetsu looked at Orochimaru with disapproval, and then emphasized again, "I said, this is an industry, and the 'doll' you are talking about is just one of them. A link, a beginning.”

“Our audience is all over the world!”

"...?"

A question mark of the same style slowly appeared above their heads.
