Konoha, I have the Herrscher of the End core in my body.

Merging a company is not like taking money directly from Cardo. Many things need to be considered, such as the people behind Cardo. It is not like just taking Cardo's money and then not caring about anything else.

This also made Naruto roughly understand why the Akatsuki organization mainly makes money through missions. After all, compared to the simple and direct way of getting money from missions, starting a company and doing business would take too long to produce results. In addition, because of the way ninjas think, they naturally would not think of making money through this method.

For Naruto, the biggest problem facing the ninja world today is the ninja's way of thinking. Without breaking this, it will be difficult for the ninja world to change.

"Without the people from Cardo here, the atmosphere here is really much better."

Coming to the streets of Wave Country again, there were obviously a lot more pedestrians on the streets than the last time he came, and the same was true for the shops on one side that were open.

"Naruto, you go investigate over there, and we'll go investigate over there." The three of them came to the streets of the town together. Sakura's eyes rolled, and she quickly came up with an idea that would allow her and Sasuke to be alone together.

"Then I'll go this way, Sakura, go to the last direction, finish the investigation early and go back."

Before Naruto could speak, Sasuke spoke first, saying that he would ignore Sakura and walked to the left alone. For Sasuke, he had no interest in such an investigation mission at the moment. He just wanted to finish it early and go back to continue practicing.

"See you later."

Looking at Sakura's depressed face, Naruto shook his head gently and left. Sakura now had no idea about Sasuke's situation, so naturally she didn't understand what he was thinking.

"Come on, Ruler of Reason."

"Be careful, my master. Don't be defeated by me. Watch out for my beheading sword."

"I have a beheading sword, too."

On an uninhabited deserted island, two Narutos started a fierce battle. Both Narutos held beheading swords in their hands and chopped each other hard.

"Look at my explosive beheading sword." One of the Narutos said and threw the beheading sword in his hand out. At this time, the beheading sword was covered with detonating tags at some point.

"You should try it yourself." Naruto on the opposite side said as a purple portal appeared in front of him. A beheading sword covered with detonating tags passed through the portal and appeared behind Naruto.

"Shield." After Naruto discovered the beheading sword appearing behind him, he did not panic. Instead, he chuckled, and then a huge three-meter-high iron shield appeared behind his body.

boom.

The violent explosion made the iron shield buzzing. Although a part of the iron shield was damaged, it completely blocked the explosion.

"Watch out, Spear of the Sky." Naruto on the opposite side launched an attack again.

"Six hundred billion detonating talismans."

Facing the six Sub-sonic Spears shot from the opposite side, a large number of detonating tags suddenly appeared in front of Naruto, and then exploded. Relying on the powerful force of the explosion, the six Sub-sonic Spears were blown away.

"You don't have 600 billion detonating talismans here."

"Is it okay if I'm happy to call it that? Believe it or not, I'm calling it 600 trillion."

"It's up to you. Next, enjoy my Herrscher version of the King's Treasure."

The overwhelming Sub-Void Spears immediately covered the entire area around Naruto. Although he created a large number of shields for defense, he was still pierced through the body by the Sub-Void Spears, and his body turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.

"A mere shadow clone, and you think you can beat me." After defeating the shadow clone, the victorious Naruto excitedly waved his fist.

"It's my turn now, Master. Take the King's Treasure."

Just as Naruto won, another Naruto rushed up and used the same move as he had just used. A large number of Sub-Sky Spears appeared in the air.

"Come on, who's afraid of who?" Naruto was the same here, Spear of the Sub-Void against Spear of the Sub-Void, they were bombarding each other.

"Cado's shipping company is being acquired. I see. It seems he has no time to care about us now. Mr. Dazna, I think you should be able to gather more people to help repair the bridge now."

In the evening, Naruto was the last one to return to Dazna's house, and then the three of them told Kakashi the information they had obtained. Kakashi was a little surprised that Naruto came back the latest, but after hearing the information he had investigated, he immediately nodded in understanding.

Among the three, although Sasuke and Sakura also found out a lot of information, it was still far behind Naruto's intelligence.

This was also Naruto's excuse to deal with Kakashi. He had no need to investigate Kado because he had been on an uninhabited island practicing with his shadow clones.

Combat experience is very difficult for ninjas to gain, but Naruto can take a shortcut since he can create numerous shadow clones, which is his advantage.

"Really, that's great. It would be even better if you could come earlier."

Dazna was very happy to hear that Cardo's shipping company was acquired. These days, although he looked for some old friends, most of them were afraid of Cardo and did not dare to participate in the bridge construction, so he was busy alone every day. As for Kakashi, of course he was watching the show on the side.

Even if Kakashi was free, he would not help Dazna build the bridge. This is a matter of principle for ninjas. It's not that he has no sympathy. If he really had no sympathy, he should have given up the mission long ago.

“It’s a bit strange to be acquired at this time.”

Although Kakashi was curious about why the shipping company in Kado was acquired at this time instead of earlier, since it had nothing to do with the mission, he was just curious and had no intention of pursuing the matter. After all, it had nothing to do with the mission.

As the news of the acquisition of Cardo's shipping company spread, more and more people participated in the bridge construction, and the progress of the bridge construction was accelerating day by day.

After Kakashi was sure that Zabuza would not attack, he let himself go even more. He watched the intimate paradise on the bridge every day and even stopped teaching Team 7's training seriously.

Now that they had mastered tree climbing, the next thing they should have learned was treading water, but Kakashi refused to teach them. Even if he didn't teach, Naruto didn't want to hide this anymore, so he found an excuse and said that since chakra can climb trees and walk on walls, then maybe it can be used to stand on water. Then the three of them began to practice treading water, and Kakashi nodded with satisfaction when Naruto couldn't see.

"The Hope Bridge, the Naruto Bridge is gone."

With the completion of the bridge, Dazna and others began to solicit names for the bridge. Finally, they named it the Bridge of Hope because it was the hope of the Land of Waves. Naruto naturally didn't care about this.

"Thank you so much."

"You're welcome. After all, we have accepted the mission. Now that the mission is completed, it's time for us to leave."

Kakashi finally rejected Dazna's idea of ​​increasing his remuneration. Since he had accepted a C-level mission in the beginning, he would treat it as a C-level mission. This was the principle.

"I've had a really comfortable month. It's a pity that I'm too good, otherwise I could have easily delayed the bridge construction for another month."

Looking back at the Bridge of Hope, Naruto shook his head slightly. This mission took about a month. It went by in a flash in the animation, but in reality, it was completely different.

In the Land of Waves, Naruto did not feel any discriminatory gazes at all, which was something he could not enjoy in Konoha. Even today, although no one dared to say anything about the demon fox in front of him, behind his back, it was still the same as before.

In fact, he could have asked Cardo to come over and delay the construction of the bridge, but considering the lives of the civilians in the Land of Waves, he gave up in the end.

"The next step is to wait for Orochimaru's plan to destroy Konoha, and Gaara's One-Tail Shukaku."
