The group standing in front of him could no longer be described as 'rare guests'.

Before today, Namikaze Minato never imagined that he would see such a scene in front of him.

After all, one of them is Orochimaru, one of Konoha's famous 'Three Ninjas', and the other one is.

His eyes moved to the red-haired boy.

This person between a young man and a teenager is the star of hope of Sand Hidden Village, the Red Sand Scorpion.

The best of the best in Sand Hidden Village.

No matter how you look at it, it is an impossible combination to put together.

However, the two of them stood together at this time, and they seemed... quite harmonious?

Weren't we still competitors for the same task before?

He recalled the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two during the Sugar Contest, and was a little confused as to what happened.

No, it should be said that Miss Ugetsu was indeed an ‘accident’

What about o1’s role?

He cleared his throat: "Who are you two...?"

The wonderful combination looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.

It seems that whoever comes first will lose. In the end, Uchiha Shisui, who came with him, stepped forward and said, resigned to his fate:

"That's it, Namikaze Minato-sama, we... well, to be precise, Orochimaru-sama and Scorpion-sama are here to ask you to demonstrate your signature ninjutsu."

The young man looked at the blond young man in front of him with a shy smile and announced the answer.

Namikaze Minato:  …

Namikaze Minato:...Huh?

The young man's expression was dull.

That's right, Orochimaru and Scorpion's final conclusion was.

Rather than the two of them thinking hard, it would be better to let Namikaze Minato demonstrate how to operate the ninjutsu in person.

If you stand nearby and look carefully, you will definitely find inspiration.

Even if they can't find more inspiration, they can record the effects and impacts in as much detail as possible and restore them.

Using ninjutsu will definitely produce some effects, right?

Will this effect affect the surrounding terrain or other things in the entire space?

That's what they want to see.

It's just an explanation.

People who are not smart enough will not understand even if it is explained.

It's better to make the request directly.

This request was indeed very presumptuous and bizarre, but after all, it was not a big issue of violating principles or betraying the Ninja Village, so Minato Namikaze agreed.

As for secrecy...

Anyway, I saw a lot of people on the battlefield, not less than one or two.

only……

The blond young man shook his head.

When he originally promised Yuyue that he could use his image to make a doll, he never thought that he would be in this situation today.

He not only had to show off his ninjutsu in front of Orochimaru, but also in front of other ninjas in the ninja village.

But when it comes to his signature ninjutsu...

"The words of the Flying Thunder God..."

It seems difficult to say that it is a display?

"No, don't fly Thunder God."

Namikaze Minato was about to talk about his signature ninjutsu when he was interrupted by the two of them speaking in unison.

Just kidding, it’s already a lot of trouble to show off the wind escape, but why fly the thunder god?

Namikaze Minato shut up and thought for a while, then asked tentatively:

"That's... a spiral pill?"

Apart from Flying Thunder God, the only one left is this technique developed by himself.

The two looked at each other and nodded.

"This is fine, just this."

As a ninja from the same village, Orochimaru took the lead.

So at the request of the two of them, Namikaze Minato was confused and demonstrated the use of the Rasengan in all directions, angles and postures for them.

After it was over, the area around the clearing was filled with semi-circular hole-like cracks punched by the Rasengan.

The duo, who seemed strange no matter how they thought about it, recorded it from top to bottom, from far to near with a rigorous attitude of inquiry, and then got together to mutter about something and seemed to be fine after talking for a while. left.

He didn't care at all about the two people who were still standing there.

Uchiha Shisui was left to clean up the mess for the two of them, and also answered questions for Minato Namikaze, who was still confused about the situation.

"That's right. Ms. Ugetsu hopes that the first batch of dolls will be sophisticated enough. In other words, she hopes to be able to restore the appearance of Lord Namikaze Minato in actual combat."

Namikaze Minato: "So?"

But what does this have to do with Orochimaru and Scorpion teaming up to find him?

Wouldn't it be great if they just made things like dolls?

"But Namikaze Minato-sama's Rasengan is a wind release, and the shape of the wind itself is..." Uchiha Shisui implicitly stated why the two came here to collect materials.

"Now it seems that Orochimaru-sama and Scorpion-sama should have an idea. Thank you very much for your demonstration."

Namikaze Minato:  …

Namikaze Minato was dumbfounded.

He thought it was something.

Of course, as the Hokage's right-hand man, he also knew what the Red Sand Scorpion had left behind for Miss Ugetsu's request. It's just that he didn't expect that the commission content would be like this...

so...

Indescribable.

What was even more unexpected was that the famous Red Sand Scorpion actually accepted such an outrageous commission.

Although there are reasons why he cannot embarrass the village and lose the mission.

but more...

The blond young man suddenly raised the corners of his lips and laughed.

"Sure enough, it's probably because of peace."

Only when there is peace can ninjas work hard to meet such ridiculous mission requirements.

This is a ‘mission’ that was unimaginable in any case during the war years.

It might be a little childish, or it might be a little outrageous.

But Minato Namikaze liked it very much.

Ms. Ugetsu can always approach things from angles that they would never think of.

Is this also a talent?

If that was the case, he would wish to have more of this talent.

That way, we can have a more peaceful and interesting world.

Although it was just a hazy feeling, Namikaze Minato was still keenly aware of the existence of 'other possibilities'. A completely different path than what the ninjas knew.

He didn't know where this road was going, but he instinctively felt that this might be a better direction than the current one.

——At least, wouldn’t Orochimaru-sama and Scorpion-sama, who had no chance of collaborating in the first place, work together?

(Although letting yourself be a template is somewhat...)

He scratched the back of his head, a little shy.

Despite his status as a 'war hero', he was a ninja who became famous at the end of the war.

But Namikaze Minato did not want war to break out again from the bottom of his heart.

Even if he knows that 'just be peaceful all the time' is just a weak and impossible wish.

It is a ridiculous and childish idea for this era and world, and even for the identity of a ninja.

But he still looked forward to it.

"You have to work hard too."

He smiled and patted Uchiha Shisui on the shoulder.

"Following Miss Ugetsu, I'm afraid it will only be more difficult in the future."

Uchiha Shisui smiled and replied after hearing this.

"How can you say it's hard work? Through this period of work, I have also discovered many of my own shortcomings." He said firmly, "For me, this is also a rare exercise."

"Is that so?"

Namikaze Minato was a little surprised when he thought of his student's appearance of almost dying of overwork.

They are obviously working together, but they have two completely different answers.

And Uchiha Shisui's sincere look doesn't look like he's faking it...

Could it be that Kakashi hasn't given up the idea of ​​going to ANBU, so... he's acting?

Want to make people feel that this job is too heavy and tiring for him, and then take the opportunity to resign and go to ANBU?

That would be terrible.

Let’s not talk about whether Anbu is suitable for Kakashi, but this evasive attitude...

The blond young man frowned slightly:

He doesn't remember raising his students like this.

Kakashi: Sneeze!

Noticing that Kakashi next to him suddenly sneezed, Metkai kept moving his hands and said:

"As expected of my old enemy Kakashi, even sneezing doesn't delay work!"

Kakashi: ...Is this the time to say this?

...But then again, why did I feel a chill in my back at that moment, as if I was in danger?

It's strange. He has been working at Miss Yuyue's place every day recently. Let alone tasks, he doesn't even have time to go out for a walk. Why do he still feel like this?

"You're distracted! Well, this is the time for me to speed up and sprint - let you see the speed I developed in the sugar-thin contest!"

As he spoke, Metkai sped up the movements in his hands again.

The wrapping paper and merchandise turned into afterimages in his hands, making it impossible to see their original appearance.

"Hey!"

The silver-haired boy also hurriedly accelerated the movements of his hands.

No matter how you say it, he is still a senior, forget about everything else. If he loses at work, where will he put his face?

So Kakashi also calmed down and began to concentrate on speeding up.

Even with all the hard work he had put in for so many days, there was no way he could lose in this regard!

——So when Yuyue went back, she saw a room full of packaged blind boxes.

There are also two teenagers who are tireless and almost wrapped in blind box products.

The competition between the two has obviously reached a fever pitch. Even Yuyue didn't notice when he came in. Instead, he continued to fight with each other with his own unique moves.

For example, you can throw three items up at once, and then quickly wrap them up while they are falling.

Another example is to spread the wrapping paper on the table in a large sheet, then 'slide' the product on with a swipe, and then use calculations accurate to the millimeter to divide it without any waste and quickly roll it for packaging.

At once……

This is probably a ninja.

It is indeed a profession that turns the impossible into the possible.

However, this work attitude is still very worthy of recognition, that is...

"Beware!"

As the packed blind boxes continued to fly high, the already crumbling "blind box mountain" around them could no longer bear any more weight and collapsed into the open space in the middle, burying the two people who were concentrating on their work. in it.

Ugetsu, who was standing at the door, almost suffered a disaster. Fortunately, Shisui, the omnipotent assistant beside him, reacted quickly and prevented the tragedy from happening.

But even if nothing happens, it doesn't mean that these two people's behavior of neglecting safety can be let go lightly.

Yuyue, who stood up again, looked at the two people who climbed out and said with a serious expression:

"Both of you, your wages will be deducted!"

"In addition, each person will write a 1000-word review and submit it to Shisui tomorrow. Shisui will only pass if he passes the test."

"What if it fails?"

Metkai, who had not yet experienced the power of Miss Ugetsu, asked blankly.

After hearing this, Yuyue smiled, and then gave a cold answer in a friendly voice:

"Of course it's rewritten until it's passed."

The Jarhead boy's expression collapsed on the spot.

Hatake Kakashi was somewhat gloating about his misfortune.

He also knew that Metkai was not good at written work.

But before the gloating appeared on his face, he was also named.

"And you, Kakashi."

"what?"

The boy who was named looked at his boss blankly.

"As a senior, not only did you fail to lead by example, but you acted on your own impulse and led to such a result."

"I'm disappointed in you."

The girl's words were like a bucket of ice water poured on Kakashi's head, calming him down.

It can't be said to be calm, or it should be said to be 'like falling into an ice cave'.

The brain above regained its sanity at this time.

Miss Ugetsu is right.

If this was a ninja's mission, then his behavior would most likely result in casualties to his teammates.

Even if it wasn't a mission that ninjas needed to fight for, his attitude shouldn't appear at work.

After all, it is work.

It was just because the atmosphere was so relaxed recently that he unconsciously relaxed.

He sat upright and apologized solemnly.

"I'm so sorry, it's my fault."

"Then in addition to deducting wages, you also need to restore and organize these things, no problem."

"no problem."

"Extra work is required as punishment."

"I should."

"Finally, in addition to the original 1000 words, you need to write an additional 1000 words. Is that okay?"

"No ah……"

The silver-haired boy was also dumbfounded.

"Can this..."

Hatake Kakashi tried to bargain.

His grades in cultural classes are indeed good, and he is not afraid of writing work such as writing reports, but a 2000-word review is still a bit...

Yuyue raised an eyebrow: "Or round it up to 3000 words?"

"...No, let's just say 2000."

2000 is deadly enough, but 3000... He thinks it would be easier to spy on intelligence or confront the enemy.

Facts have proved that even a genius who becomes famous at a young age is not able to do everything with ease.

With the reference, Orochimaru and Scorpion's progress can be said to be rapid.

Under Minato Namikaze's demonstration, the two measured various data in detail from all aspects and angles.

And successfully turned these data into physical objects.

Taking into account the two previous rudenesses, the two even prepared Plan Two, Plan Three, Plan Four... In short, they gave themselves enough room to operate to prevent being beaten back again.

Once the work is viewed as a task, plans and programs are specified.

Then they are all experts.

When making a plan for infiltration or sneak attack, who doesn't come up with three or four plans?

They just didn't understand it for a while and thought that all she wanted was a toy with ninja skills.

Now that I have figured it out, I regard it as a series of tasks that need to be done, and natural solutions and methods have come.

They are ninjas, what kind of storms have they not seen before?

It's just a task that requires using your brain and skills. Isn't this something that you can do easily by just hitting the pillow when you fall asleep?

They are healed, they are enlightened.

The results will come naturally.

Then the two showed their new products to Ugetsu.

"This is……"

“These are two products we customize based on your needs.”

The first one to speak was Scorpion.

In front of him were two obscured objects.

He opened the taller one, revealing the lifelike 'Namikaze Minato' below. With his cloak fluttering and one hand raised, anyone who sees him will think he is a very handsome image.

——It is really exquisite and vivid.

It's like it's scaled down.

There is some white substance around the smaller version of Namikaze Minato - maybe it looks like a manifestation of wind?

"After closely analyzing Namikaze Minato and his moves, we selected these materials for preparation."

He said a bunch of nouns that Uzuki couldn't understand, and then made some samples.

Yuyue touched it and was surprised to find that one of them looked slightly similar to the skin.

"In terms of image, I abandoned Konoha's unsightly green vest."

Before he finished speaking, Orochimaru snorted coldly:

"You guys from Sunagakure Village are nowhere to be seen."

Xie glanced at him, seeing that he was a temporary partner, and ignored him.

"...I chose a cloak, and the floating cloak can better express the traces of 'wind'."

This is true, if you want the cloak to float, there must be wind.

Ugetsu nodded in agreement.

"Then here."

He said, pulling a small mechanism.

Then, a miracle happened.

The white lines that were originally scattered around Namikaze Minato gathered towards the palm of his hand as if they were attracted by something, and turned into a white sphere with some air waves (white objects).

"This is the signature ninjutsu that Namikaze Minato showed us - the Rasengan."

Ugetsu's eyes widened.

This really exceeded her expectations.

He can still move!

Wonderful, is this the creativity of ninjas?

But Yuyue, as a veteran party A, will not be carried away like this: "What about the cost? What about the difficulty of manufacturing?"

She quickly asked the most important part.

In fact, this level of completion is acceptable to her.

But as a businessman, the cost must be as low as possible while ensuring quality control.

"The cost is this amount."

Orochimaru joined the conversation.

"How difficult is it to manufacture... Both Xie and I can complete it independently. My student Hongdou can also help with the processing of some parts, so that the work efficiency can be increased." He said, glancing at Xie.

"I just don't know what the situation is like at the 'Red Sand Scorpion'."

After all, we are not a family that loves each other.

You should still take eye drops when you can.

The red-haired boy sneered when he heard this:

"Sunagakure is a skilled puppet master who can make anything."

Orochimaru's face suddenly fell.

He was careless.

In this way, the business is simply delivered directly to the other party.

There are many ninjas in Konoha Village, and there are many who can form seals to produce flowers.

But technical work is not something you can do quickly and skillfully. Of course Orochimaru can train others, but training also takes time.

Compared to the puppet masters that Sunagakure Village could use directly, they lagged behind from the beginning.

Orochimaru looked gloomy, but he did not give up and turned to reveal another work.

——A round one, egg?

"This is?"

"This is the cute and friendly version of the little doll you requested."

As Orochimaru spoke, he took out a bamboo tube and poured some light green liquid on it.

“Rather than just making a rigid doll, I think doing it yourself will be more relatable.”

——Ugetsu didn’t know how ‘hands-on’ and ‘intimacy’ were combined, but she did not interrupt Orochimaru’s spellcasting, but continued to observe.

Then, an incredible scene happened again.

I saw that the originally ordinary egg-shaped object began to grow.

It grew a bit, and gradually developed an 'outline', eventually turning into a small doll with a short body.

Although the way it appeared was a bit weird, the final result was pretty much what Ugetsu wanted.

And this method is also very novel.

"I improved the original process, and then... used some parts of the puppet master to put inside as a support." He said, shaking the bamboo tube in his hand, "As long as I use a special culture fluid, I can make it Grow according to the set outline.”

"For different shapes, it is enough to make corresponding settings in advance, so there is no need to add additional costs."

"The mycelium used can also be specially cultivated, and the required environment is not troublesome."

Orochimaru has always believed that life is the real art in this world.

Living things are more beautiful than dead things.

"How about it, are you satisfied?"

Orochimaru's face showed a unique expression of respect when facing his client.

This is no longer a question of dissatisfaction, but that it has been played out.

Ugetsu's eyes were opened.

It is truly a ninja world.

You can play with any figure.

And the latter...

This is completely a ready-made blind box.

A new industrial chain has been quickly generated in Yuyue's mind.

This is completely a natural blind box + toys + parent-child project.

The "pay + gain" model is very popular, and it can be completed by parents and children together. It is a wonderful parent-child project.

No complicated procedures are required, and no special site preparation is required.

This means that there will be no additional burden on parents - I believe this alone is very attractive to parents.

Ugetsu even thought of the slogan.

'If you love him, then accompany him to cultivate heroes'.

How perfect.

This is especially true for families where parents are away from home all year round and do not know how to get close to their children when they come back, or the parent-child relationship is indifferent.

This is an excellent breakthrough.

This alone can be used for publicity.

"So can this be done by anyone? Even the ninjas of Sunagakure Village?"

"Of course, as long as the settings are made in advance..." Orochimaru suddenly reacted, "Why do you want people from Sunagakure Village?"

Yuyue looked strange:

"Since it is a product intended for the world, it must be in line with local characteristics."

"At this stage, I think it is still difficult to use Konoha's ninjas to open the market of the Kingdom of Wind and other countries."

"So you want Sunagakure Village?"

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes.

"of course not."

Hearing Ugetsu's decisive answer, he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then he heard the girl's next words:

"How can there be only Sunagakure Village? Kumogakure Village, Kirigakure Village, Iwagakure Village... the five great ninja villages, I want them all!"

It’s been told all over the world, how could it possibly miss several other markets?

"Of course, I will discuss this with the leaders of other ninja villages in the future, so there is no rush."

Versions are iterative. It’s normal for one batch to come out one generation at a time.

This can also increase the popularity of the product——

Even if one ninja village is released a year, it will take her several years.

Not to mention that there are so many ninja clans in each ninja village. Adding one or two more at a time can last for many years.

If there is new technology to iterate by then, it will be a new way of playing.

Ninjas are such treasures.

Ugetsu looked at the two of them with passionate eyes.

It was also a very novel experience for the two of them to be looked at with such direct and passionate eyes without any hatred or murderous intent.

Although I don’t hate it…

But it’s also very awkward to be honest.

"So are you planning to sell this product?"

Scorpion spoke first.

"That's right, ah, by the way, Scorpion, can you contact the person in charge of your Sunagakure Village? I would like to discuss the people or ninja clan that Sunagakure Village should use as the basis for making dolls."

Ugetsu made the request of course.

Scorpion: "...I need some time."

This really takes time.

After all, when he took on this task, he didn't expect such a follow-up.

At least give him time to explain and wait for feedback.

Yuyue nodded generously.

"No problem, you can go ahead. It's just a trial run now. You have enough time to communicate with the people in charge in Sunagakure Village."

"This is also a good thing to help you publicize."

In a world without viral marketing and overwhelming advertising, isn't this kind of product with the image of a ninja just helping them advertise?

"correct."

Ugetsu noticed that there were some scattered small objects on the table.

It's about the length of a knuckle, and you can see the uneven surface and edges.

It always feels a bit familiar, as if I've seen something similar somewhere.

"this?"

Scorpion fiddled with it casually.

"This is the part we originally used to make the 'background'. Because we were not sure how the 'wind' should be expressed specifically, we made this structure that can be assembled and disassembled so that we can adjust it at any time."

He said, and showed Ugetsu its function.

Under his delicate manipulation, the parts quickly formed the shape of a scorpion.

He said it casually, but Ugetsu's eyes widened.

——Hey, isn’t this the Ninja World version of Lego! ?
