The Days of Being the Richest Man in the Ninja World-Chapter 332. The Working Tool

Chapter 332. The Working Tool

---

Meanwhile...

Yuto remained blissfully unaware that the shift in lifestyle had turned many White Zetsus into NEET-Zetsus.

Thus, in an effort to restore their lost sense of purpose, break free from their comfort zones, and fulfill their mission of saving Mom, Black Zetsu had convened a grand meeting among the White Zetsus—"Operation: Find a New Boss."

Their goal? To find a suitable boss before Madara's revival, manipulate them into plunging the Ninja World into chaos, reclaim the Rinnegan, and—ultimately—reset their grand plan to its original course!

This was a mission of utmost importance!

They needed to find a very [Evil! Rich! Boss!]

Meanwhile, at the Yuto Household...

Yuto, currently enjoying a massage from Suzune (who was rolling her eyes the entire time), finally felt some relief.

His back no longer ached. His legs no longer felt weak. frёeωebɳovel.com

Now, he was ready to take Kana, who had come to visit, back to the Uchiha compound.

Even though he was technically an exiled Uchiha and hadn't returned in years...

Well, he still had his adorable nephew, his lovely sister-in-law, and—most importantly—his dear older brother, the key to unlocking the Mangekyo and Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan!

How could he just cut all ties completely?

As for the currently trending [Rootzon]... Who cared?

Though he was curious—where the hell did Root Studio find such cheap manufacturers for their products?

...

At the Uchiha Compound.

Amidst the usual greetings of "Yuto-sama!", the four of them entered.

However...

Today, Sasuke was at school, Itachi and Honoka were on a mission with their teacher, and Fugaku—as the Captain of the Konoha Police Force—was swamped with work. So, the only one home was Sister Mikoto.

"Here, please have some tea!" Mikoto smiled warmly as she set down the cups. "Fugaku will be back soon. Just wait a little! Yuto, really... you should've told us you were coming earlier!"

She then glanced curiously at the red-haired Uzumaki woman and the Hyuga woman beside Yuto.

Honestly, she couldn't help but wonder—what would a child of Uchiha, Uzumaki, and Hyuga bloodlines even look like?

Would they inherit just one bloodline? Or... develop something entirely new?

Then, she sighed, thinking of the Chief Elder. "It's been so long since the Chief Elder left... I hope he's doing alright. He's not young anymore, and if something happened to him outside... The clan is really worried!"

"Relax, that old man's fine," Yuto waved it off. "Hasn't he been posting travel vlogs and livestreams? You can follow his [Ninstagram] account!"

"Really? I had no idea!" Mikoto was stunned and then blinked in surprise. "I'll check it out later!"

Just then—

"I'm home."

A cold voice echoed through the room. Everyone turned to see Fugaku, standing at the entrance with his usual stoic expression.

Mikoto took his bento box and set out his slippers. "Why are you late? Didn't I call you earlier?"

"There was a lot of work at the Police Force." Fugaku nodded in greeting before sitting down. His sharp eyes locked onto Yuto. "So. What are you here for today?"

Truthfully, he wasn't late because of work.

On his way back, he had run into Hyuga Clan Leader and his wife, who were out with their youngest child.

Originally, thinking of Yuto's... affairs, and the fact that everyone was just going about their lives in the village, Fugaku had simply nodded at Hyuga Clan Leader as a greeting.

But then—

He was blocked in his path.

At first, Fugaku thought nothing of it and tried to step around him. But Hyuga Clan Leader moved to block him again.

This time, Fugaku realized that something was wrong. Was the Hyuga clan picking a fight?

Then, the two Clan Leaders stood there, staring each other down in silence.

Fugaku couldn't recall any recent conflicts between the Uchiha and Hyuga. So why did Hyuga Clan Leader look like he wanted to hit him with an Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms combo?

After a tense pause, Fugaku finally spoke. "Is there something you need, Clan Leader Hiashi?"

Hiashi's response?

"How is... Uchiha Yuto these days?"

Ah.

Fugaku understood.

It was his idiotic otouto who caused the trouble!

Just as Fugaku was about to ask what exactly Yuto had done this time, Hyuga Clan Leader's wife pulled him away, apologizing profusely.

It left Fugaku utterly confused—he never got to find out what happened!

...

Fugaku took a sip of tea and looked at Yuto. "Did you do something to anger Clan Leader Hiashi recently?"

"???" Yuto looked at Fugaku with a puzzled expression, then exchanged a glance with Suzune. "No!"

"..."

Fugaku fell silent.

His eyes flicked to Suzune, then to Kana, then he thought of the other Hyuga woman in Yuto's life. And then, he seemed to understand something and nodded. "Never mind. It's fine."

It's really time for a round of Sixty-Four... no! It should be Hundred Twenty-Eight Palms~

This Uchiha...

He is a disgrace to the Uchiha clan!

This is a shame for the Uchiha!

Why couldn't he be more like the Chief Elder?

At least he knew how to stay out of trouble!

...

Meanwhile...

Thanks to Root Studio's bizarre advertisements, the entire Ninja World had now heard of the [Rootzon] shopping app.

With the rapid development of the internet, online shopping had gradually become the norm.

Thus, out of sheer curiosity, many people decided to give this new app a try.

"Hundred Billion Subsidies! Limited-Time Sales! Group Discounts!"

The flashy promotions and discounts were irresistible!

For example—

Mr. Kakuzu, who is frugal and manages his household well.

Ever since acquiring his "tool", Kakuzu had noticed a significant increase in daily expenses. So, in an effort to cut costs, he downloaded [Rootzon] after seeing its ads.

Time to test it out!

But when he saw how cheap everything was compared to the prices on [Yuto Mall], he nearly exploded in rage. "That damn Uchiha Yuto! He actually made so much money from me! That greedy bastard! Even more black-hearted than me!!"

Lost!

Lost!

He felt like he'd lost millions over the years!

After quickly buying some daily necessities in the app, he turned to his "tool"—Deidara.

"Listen up, you tool! You better work hard! Otherwise, I'll scrap you like the useless tool you are!"

"Enough! You poor bastard!" Deidara scoffed. "So damn stingy! My future will eventually come, and when the time comes, I will become a god, and I will definitely not be as stingy as you!"

"You? A god?" Kakuzu sneered. "I fought the God of the Ninja World before you were even born! What's with kids these days? Thinking they're hot shit? Delusional brat!"

"Hey! What are you talking about?! This Flying Thunder God Sword alone is worth more than your pathetic missions!"

"Only children waste money on useless toys! And yet, here you are, begging me for food!" Kakuzu snapped. "You're useless! Weak taijutsu! Weak ninjutsu! All you've got is that stupid clay! Boom boom boom—that's all you do! One explosion, and you'll owe me more than your life's worth! I refuse to get dragged into your mess and end up trending online!"

"Damn it! Just you wait, thirty years later—"

"Shut up now!" Kakuzu smacked the back of Deidara's head. "If you eat my food, you have to earn money for me! You're just a tool!" He pointed at a nearby restaurant. "Behave yourself when we get in! If they don't hire you, I'll beat the crap out of you!"

With that, he dragged the grumbling brat inside.

Inside the restaurant...

"Oh? Kakuzu-san!" The fat boss blinked in surprise. "I have no missions today. Are you here for a meal?"

"No, no. This kid needs a job."

"He's too young! And even if he weren't..." The owner sighed. "We're not hiring him."

"He's hardworking! He's very good at wiping tables!" Kakuzu growled, smacking Deidara's head again as Deidara muttered complaints about having to work. "Tool! Hurry up and work! If you don't want to, get out of here!!"

"Damn it!"

"Huh?!"

"..."

"Good. Now behave." Satisfied, Kakuzu turned back to the owner. "Hire him. If he doesn't do a good job, you can beat him! Don't worry, this guy will definitely work hard!"

"But—"

"Don't worry! No salary! Just give him three meals!" Kakuzu leaned in, voice dropping to a menacing whisper. "No need to explain anything to him. Make him do whatever you want." Then, his eyes glinted dangerously. "You're not about to refuse me, are you... boss?"

"..."

Suddenly, the boss was so scared that he trembled and immediately nodded.

He can't afford to offend~
