I became rich through business in the ninja world

She looked at Orochimaru who came to the door and rubbed her forehead: "You mean, you want to lead Konoha's qualified ninjas to take the Chunin Exam as a team teacher?"

"Yes."

Orochimaru nodded and returned with his signature husky voice.

Although Orochimaru has many problems, he is still the famous 'Konoha Sannin', and his cards are still there.

Since I haven't broken up with the teacher now, I haven't rebelled directly from the village.

For such a big event, as a well-known ninja, you still have to be dragged out to control the situation.

——Of course, it may also be related to the fact that he is the most talkative among the "Three Ninjas" when it comes to ninja work.

Two others.

One Tsunade had already declared that 'the fighting and killing work of a ninja is something only barbarians can do', not to mention the other.

During his years as a ninja, he had never been honest and obedient.

Coupled with all kinds of problems, big and small...let alone trying to control the situation, the possibility of embarrassment is even greater.

In addition, he has recently burst out with enthusiasm and is working on his 'breakthrough work'... which may not be able to be praised.

In comparison, Orochimaru turned out to be the most positive and dedicated one.

...This is really unpredictable.

"I understand."

Looking at Orochimaru who came to explain himself, Ugetsu nodded.

Although this unexpected situation did interrupt her plans.

But the 'Chūnin Examination', which is equivalent to the certification test in the ninja world, is after all a major event that affects the life of a ninja, and Ugetsu will definitely not refuse.

This is a major matter for assessing strength and increasing salary.

Of course she wouldn't stand in the way and be hated at this time.

But then again, such a big event...

"Can I go together?"

"Ok?"

Unexpectedly, Ugetsu would ask this, and Orochimaru opened his eyes slightly.

"This is your Chunin Exam. Are you allowed to visit? Can I go at my own expense?"

"Of course, everyone can participate."

It would be better to say that this was originally an occasion for ninjas from various ninja villages to show their strength.

Theoretically, of course, the more viewers, the better.

Everyone can participate...

Ugetsu touched her chin.

"Then I'll make arrangements here in advance, and I'll set off with you then."

What a nice person.

"Ok."

Orochimaru paused.

"What about Ugetsu Store employees taking the exam..."

"Well, I will also arrange it in advance so that it will not delay their exams."

Not only was Ugetsu unable to stop him.

They are even considering whether to include passing the Chuunin Exam as part of employee evaluation.

Chuunin can improve his level by accepting missions from the Hokage and so on.

Does she also have to increase her workload and raise her salary accordingly?

Soon, the village was filled with "chuunin exam fever" - as a village with ninjas at its core.

The Chunin Examination is undoubtedly a major event that attracts the attention of the whole village.

Especially for families with children who want to participate, parents must prepare in advance.

The business of various ninja tool shops suddenly boomed - after all, it was the Chunin Exam that was held again after a long time.

The previous three battles were fierce.

中

The endurance test was stopped.

After the war, every family was in dire straits, so naturally they had no time to organize it.

Even if it is held, the war has just ended and there is so much hatred. Who knows whether there will be people with personal grudges who do not want to pass the exam, but just want revenge and massacre inside?

In addition, the cooperation with Ugetsu was really profitable, so the ninjas simply put this matter aside for now.

After two years of hard work, money was made, and people's moods became much better... The ninjas naturally considered restarting the Chuunin Exams.

After all, it doesn't look good if a village of ninjas are all genin.

In principle, B-level and A-level tasks can only be carried out if you have Chunin qualifications or above.

If we keep waiting like this, even the chuunin and jounin will be exhausted and they won't be able to finish it.

Do, must do!

So the Ninja Villages began to exchange news again and prepare to jointly hold the long-interrupted Chuunin Exam.

After more than half a year of negotiation, it was finally settled.

Unexpectedly, there was only one participant in the Ugetsu Store.

"Only Shisui?"

"Yeah, just me."

Uchiha Shisui nodded with a smile.

——This is really unexpected.

Ugetsu had always thought that Shisui, like Kakashi Hatake, had already passed the Chunin exam.

Instead, she thought that children like Metkai, Sarutobi Asuma, and Uchiha Itachi hadn't been there yet.

As a result, apart from Itachi, the other two people had already passed...

Should I say that people should not be judged by their appearance, or should I say that I still don’t care too much about my employees’ affairs?

"is there a problem?"

Seeing Ugetsu's surprised look, Uchiha Shisui tilted his head.

"No...it's just a bit of a surprise. I thought you were already a chuunin, Shisui."

After all, the Sharingan is very powerful.

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a genin who spends most of his missions catching cats and dogs.

Others might feel uncomfortable hearing Ugetsu's words, but Uchiha Shisui, who knew her very well, understood that her statement was really just out of surprise - because she felt that his strength was not just a genin.

So he just took it as a compliment.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Because it does not involve the transfer of the main employees who are busy - Orochimaru's production room is watched by three generations, and Tsunade's side is also watched by Metkai, Daisuke and others, so there is no need to worry about the progress.

So Yuyue thought that as long as he arranged his work, he could hit the road.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, someone stood up to object.

However, the main content of the objection is not that she wants to go out as a hands-off shopkeeper, but...

"How can Uchiha Shisui do it alone? The ninjas of Konoha? How can those people take care of Miss Ugetsu's food, clothing, housing and transportation on her way!"

——They felt that if Uchiha Shisui went alone, there would be some omissions around Ugetsu.

Kabuto Yakushi stood up, pushing up his glasses with a solemn look on his face.

"I never worry about Shisui's ability, but Shisui has to take the exam and it is impossible to stay with Miss Ugetsu the whole time. Who will be responsible for Miss Ugetsu's affairs at that time?"

He said it plausibly.

The expressions of the people around him gradually changed from doubtful to solemn.

That's right.

Uchiha Shisui was going to take the exam.

After being gone for several days, wouldn’t there be no one around Miss Yuyue?

how is this

OK.

"It's not just Shisui, there's also Orochimaru who is leading the team."

This is an old acquaintance of theirs.

Ugetsu himself doesn't think it's a big problem.

After all, if Uchiha Shisui goes to take the exam, Orochimaru will also be there.

Besides, I have hands, feet and money. Is it possible that I can still wrong myself?

"How can Orochimaru-sama take care of... No, I mean Orochimaru-sama is the leader of the team. When the time comes, there will only be a lot more work, so how can I still find time?"

This time it was Yukino who objected.

Although he only joined Ugetsu Store later. But it's obvious that she has fully understood the core of Ugetsu Store.

That is, Ms. Ugetsu is the only core and the top priority of the entire store.

Pharmacist Noonoyu also joined in: "Miss Yukino is right, we cannot hand over Miss Ugetsu to someone who cannot concentrate on Miss Ugetsu."

She was very satisfied with Yukino's success and gave him a look of understanding.

"So let Kabuto..."

"Just let Bai go with you!"

Ok?

The eyes of the two people who were on the same front just now collided, and there seemed to be a crackling sound in the air.

I thought you were a companion, but you ended up trying to steal my home? ? ?

"Shiro still needs to go to school, but Kabuto doesn't have much work on his hands. He can just go."

Pharmacist No Naiyu spoke first.

Yukino on the other side was not to be outdone.

"Studying... going out with Miss Ugetsu is also important learning, and it's also a good opportunity to practice."

She said looking at her child.

"Although Shiro is young, he has awakened the Blood Succession Limit and will definitely be able to help Ugetsu-sama."

Pharmacist Nonoyu:......

Let's talk nicely, why are you talking about the blood successor limit?

The lack of blood inheritance limit is a shortcoming of Yakushi Kabuto, and Yakushi Nonoyu will not be discouraged by this.

"Kabuto is older than Shiro, so he can do more things - plus he has been learning medical ninjutsu with me, which can better alleviate the fatigue or accidents caused by the journey."

This time it was Yukino who got stuck.

No matter how talented Shiro was, ninjutsu, especially specialized abilities like medical ninjutsu, could not be learned in three or two days.

As long as the combat effectiveness is not lacking, treatment is of course safer.

Yukino bit her lower lip.

She was betrayed by the village where she lived and her husband, and almost died.

Full of distrust of the outside world.

She firmly believes that only Ugetsu Store and Miss Ugetsu can accept her existence. She hopes that Shiro can occupy a more important position in Miss Ugetsu's heart, which is a matter of course.

It doesn't matter what happens to him, but Bai should have a better future.

When his mother stopped talking, Bai smiled and said:

"But Brother Kabuto still has a lot of work, right?"

"Isn't Brother Kabuto responsible for the matter of "Young Heroes"? Brother Kabuto is not that irresponsible, right?"

Give me eye drops?

Kabuto the pharmacist, who was proficient in the ability to sow discord, narrowed his eyes and looked at the boy.

The young man who was much shorter than himself and had an indistinguishable androgynous appearance still had an innocent smile.

He seems to have no idea how his words will affect others.

But at about the same age as him, he was able to see through the dark heart behind the innocent smile of the young man at a glance when Daisuke and others were wandering around.

however……

Before Yakushi Nonoyu could speak, Yakushi Kabuto skillfully put on a humble and cautious look.

"How could it be? This is the reason why I went out with Miss Ugetsu."

"There will definitely be many heads of Ninja Villages in the Chuunin Examination. You can also take the opportunity to chat with people from other Ninja Villages in person - this is more sincere than communicating through letters."

Bai's smile almost broke.

Although he is a child who is smarter than his peers.

But after all, he was still young, and his little thoughts were suddenly taken advantage of, and he was immediately confused.

"So Bai should study hard."

Kabuto Yakushi took advantage of the victory and emphasized the words 'study hard'.

As one of Bai's 'teachers' over the past few years, Kabuto Yakushi felt that he was quite qualified to say this.

Bai pursed his lips. Although the expression on his face was not obvious, he was obviously very unwilling.

It was an eye-opener for those who witnessed this ‘war without gunpowder’.

While everyone was paying attention to those two people, Hatake Kakashi looked at Uchiha Shisui.

Seriously speaking, this person is the key.

The young man still had a gentle smile on his face, and seemed completely unaware that what the few people were fighting for was actually his position as an 'assistant' (albeit a temporary one).

——Of course, it may also be due to the self-confidence that no matter how these people act, they cannot shake their status.

If it's the latter, that's a little annoying.

When others were shocked, there were also people who couldn't keep up with the situation at all - such as Metkai.

But when it comes to protecting Miss Ugetsu.

"I can go too."

He pointed to himself.

Although work is important, Miss Ugetsu is also very important.

Besides, he's a ninja!

If he doesn't do this kind of protection work, who will?

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that people were looking over.

The young man touched the back of his head.

What's going on?

"No, Brother Kai's current job is the most urgent and irreplaceable."

"Yes, Tsunade-sama is currently short of people. How can you want to leave your job?"

The two people who were still bickering just looked at each other and immediately decided to make a temporary reconciliation - first of all, get rid of this inexplicable person.

We cannot allow more people to join the competition.

However, Metkay, who had no sensitivity in this regard, thought that the two of them were genuinely worried about what would happen to their jobs.

He patted his chest.

"It doesn't matter, I just need to lose a few hours of sleep every day!"

It's just a few days without sleep, it's not a problem at all for him!

Metkai was confident.

Yakushi Kabuto & Shiro:......

But neither has given up.

"But the shortage of people on Tsunade-sama's side can't be solved in a day or two, right?"

Kabuto Yakushi spoke first.

Bai followed closely:

"That's right. Besides, it's rare for Kakashi-nii to come back once. Are you going to give up the opportunity to work with Kakashi-nii?"

Hatake Kakashi:?

Kakashi Hatake, who was suddenly pulled in, was confused.

However, what shocked him even more was that Metkai actually wavered.

Metkai's Thoughts

The method is also very simple.

Miss Ugetsu doesn't have to be on her own, but if she's gone, Kakashi really won't have anyone to compete with.

...Then Kakashi's side is more important as expected.

The expression on his face changed several times before he finally made this difficult decision.

"I understand, I'll stay."

After saying that, he looked at Kakashi with a look of enlightenment.

——Kakashi, for you, I even gave up my escort job for Miss Ugetsu.

Let us show it off for the hundredth time! This time, I will definitely win you!

After resolving the external conflicts, Kabuto Yakushi and Shiro looked at each other in tacit understanding.

Just as the two were preparing for the next round, Uchiha Shisui, who had been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, spoke.

"Can't you two go together?"

Everyone looked at Uchiha Shisui who was speaking.

The curly-haired boy smiled harmlessly.

"If someone wants to run errands for Miss Ugetsu, there must be someone else by her side, right?"

Kabuto Yakushi and Shiro looked at each other.

...that seems right?

"After all, Miss Ugetsu may have new business at any time. It's obviously not enough to have only one person here."

After he finished speaking, he bowed to the two of them without waiting for anyone else to respond.

"So I hope that both of you can stay with Miss Ugetsu while I'm away, please."

"Ah yes!"

"I see."

The two people who were solemnly requested hurriedly returned the favor.

"Leave it to us!"

Who is Uchiha Shisui?

That was the unbeatable second-in-command at Ugetsu Store, and he bowed his head to please me... So how could he not work hard?

While the two were panicking, they were also a little touched by being taken seriously.

It turns out that all of my efforts are seen by Master Shisui/Brother Shisui!

Yuyue looked at the two people with moved faces and couldn't help but shook her head.

Her eyes inadvertently collided with Uchiha Shisui's, and she saw the boy smile and wink at her.

It was obvious that both the timing of his appearance and the words he spoke were prepared by him.

It was obvious that he was planning to let people go with him from the beginning.

He did this just to see people's reactions - that's why he didn't say a word when Kabuto Yakushi and Shiro were arguing.

When I finally stand up and express my opinion, I can express my gratitude.

Look at the two of them looking at Shisui’s shiny

You can understand it just by looking at it.

This is really...

When did you learn this skill?

She looked at the curly-haired boy beside her.

I think back to the beginning, what an innocent and straightforward young man he was.

But that’s not bad either.

Ugetsu thought.

At least I won't be easily deceived.

If the gold medal assistant she worked so hard to train was deceived with just a few words like she deceived other ninjas, then she would be really angry to death.

The young man just smiled and said nothing.

——Who did you learn it from?

Of course it depends on who is closest.

The eyes and ears are stained.

The turmoil before the trip ended here, but not everyone was satisfied.

Uchiha Itachi, who happened to miss the meeting, was very unhappy.

When he faced Uchiha Shisui and Ugetsu, his usually expressionless face was about to wrinkle up.

"If it's an escort, I can do that too."

He was really unhappy.

He was obviously the first to arrive.

Earlier than Bai and Yakushi Kabuto!

"But don't you want to practice with Tianma and Xinzi?"

Uchiha Shisui bent down and looked at Uchiha Itachi who looked unwilling.

"This……"

Uchiha Itachi was stuck.

He was absent for this reason as well.

He graduated from Ninja School this year and is in the same team as Tianma and Xinzi.

Recently, they were preparing to train together to develop tacit understanding. They were about to start missions as genin. Although they had a good relationship in school, there was no tacit understanding during the mission, which was also a catastrophic flaw.

"You must do what you promised, right?"

The curly-haired boy gently fiddled with Uchiha Itachi's braid.

"……Yes."

Itachi was still unwilling, but he also knew that this was not the time for him to be willful.

I could only respond in a low voice.

Instead, Ugetsu touched her chin thoughtfully.

She didn't realize that Itachi was competing with Yakushi Kabuto and Haku, she just thought that the boy wanted to watch the Chunin Exam.

This is normal.

After all, he will also take the exam in the future.

It’s normal to feel a little unsure if you want to feel and observe things in advance.

After all, he is the child he has watched grow up, so this small wish can still be implemented.

So she approached Namikaze Minato.

"So what Ms. Ugetsu means is that she thinks we should organize graduates to observe the Chunin Exams to gain experience, right?"

"Yes."

Ugetsu nodded.

"Letting them experience the atmosphere of the Chunin Exam in advance will also help them prepare in advance."

Namikaze Minato:  …

How should I tell Ms. Ugetsu that the Chuunin Exam is not a child's play, and the candidates are not just an 'exam' but may die in it?

In fact, casualties in the Chunin Exams have always been a regular phenomenon.

The reason why they didn't hold it in the past two years was because they were worried that someone would be emotional and massacre during the exam.

That is by no means a relaxing activity to 'feel the atmosphere'...

No, wait.

Namikaze Minato was suddenly stunned.

It seems... not bad?

Thinking of the current situation where four of the five major ninja villages were hooking up with me and me hooking up with you under the business hosted by Miss Ugetsu, he felt that this year might really be a relatively peaceful year.

In this case, it seems like a good choice to let the children feel the atmosphere in advance?

Those who want to be ninjas should really feel the tight and dangerous atmosphere to avoid being caught off guard.

But if you go to a large area, you won’t need it.

Although it seems that there are a large number of chunin in every village, it seems that chunin is very common.

But in fact, the passing rate of the Chunin Exam has always been quite low.

It would be good if one out of ten genin could pass.

And not every genin who graduates from the ninja school will definitely get a letter of recommendation for the chunin exam... so it is enough to let those teams who are prepared to give letters of recommendation go.

After thinking about it, Namikaze Minato felt that this was a good idea.

After discussing with the elders, they decided to give the two teams with the last potential a chance first.

See how it goes.

If the effect is good, you can continue to do it in the future.

If the effect is not good...then it won't hurt to test it once.

So Uchiha Itachi, who had just caught the cat and returned home, got such a turnaround opportunity.

"Can I go too?"

"That's right. Itachi and his teammates will get the opportunity to observe the Chunin Exam as 'outstanding graduates'."

Uchiha Mikoto smiled and touched Itachi's head.

"Really?"

Itachi repeated in disbelief - after all, 'spectating the Chunin Examination' had never happened before.

Even if there is, it is only the host village that has this opportunity. Who in the other villages would consider so much.

"I heard it was Ugetsu-san's suggestion...Itachi remember to thank Ugetsu-san properly."

After Uchiha Mikoto finished speaking, the young child grabbing the hem of her skirt also curiously repeated it.

"Miss Ugetsu...?"

"Yes."

Mikoto bent down and picked up her youngest son.

"Miss Ugetsu is a good person - Sasuke must protect Miss Ugetsu in the future."

Although he was still very young, Uchiha Sasuke, who already showed vague signs of brother control, looked at Uchiha Itachi in confusion.

"Brother, will you protect Miss Ugetsu?"

"Yes." Uchiha Itachi nodded seriously. "Although I'm still very immature now, I will protect Miss Ugetsu in the future."

Not only that, he will also do a lot of work for Miss Ugetsu.

Sasuke then laughed.

"Then I also want to protect Miss Ugetsu."

The young child didn't know what kind of existence Miss Ugetsu was, but his idea of ​​​​doing the same thing as his brother had already emerged from this time.

Sasuke's words caused the other two to smile.

Yes, Miss Ugetsu is so weak and pitiful, so of course she must be protected.

A few days later, Konoha's team participating in the Chunin Examination was ready to set off.

In addition to Uchiha Shisui, there are more than twenty ninjas taking part in the Chunin Examination in Konoha.

Because of the interruption for several years, there are several people who have blood inheritance limits among the people taking the exam this time.

Uchiha and Hinata alone were an unprecedented five people.

In addition, there are many veterans who have participated in the war to a greater or lesser extent.

It can be said to be a luxurious lineup.

Not only the elders of Konoha think so, Orochimaru who leads the team is also confident.

"Speaking of which, which ninja village is holding the chuunin exam this time?"

Because it was all kept secret during the preparation, Ugetsu didn't know where they were going this time.

But now that we are ready to go, I should be able to tell you.

Orochimaru blinked and gave a rather unexpected answer:

"Sunagakure Village."

"The venue for this chunin exam is Sunagakure Village."

Oh hoo.

Old acquaintance.

When Ugetsu heard that it was Sunagakure Village, he immediately had a new idea.

It's hard to say about other villages, but Sunagakure Village was so familiar - so familiar that it was almost like her back garden.

"Let me just ask."

She looked at Orochimaru.

"Can you sponsor this Chunin Exam?"
