Chapter 50 - Chapter 50: The Cost of Desire

"That's right!"

At this time, Uzumaki Mito said to Tsunade 

"You go to Uchiha and find Sarah, and order some nutritional pills, body-building medicines and the like from him for a long time!"

"Huh?"

Tsunade listened and said in confusion

"Why? If you need it, just buy it from Ethan!"

"It's different!"

Uzumaki Mito shook her head

"That's extra, we have to fight for the obvious share!"

"First, it hides the fact that we can buy extra nutritional pills from Ethan!"

"Second, we have to occupy enough shares for Senju and the Uzumaki clan who will definitely join in the future, right?"

"Don't they need nutritional pills to enhance their strength?"

"If we don't occupy it, this share will belong to others!"

"It is not wise to sacrifice one's own interests to enhance others."

"That's right!"

Tsunade finally reacted, and stuck out his tongue a little embarrassedly and said

"I forgot all these things! Then I'll go now!"

"You! You should also think more about the family's affairs, and you can't continue to be so lazy!"

Uzumaki Mito shook her head helplessly.

This is because she protected him too well, and he never had to worry about the family's affairs. How could he ignore such an important issue.

"Hehe! Isn't there grandma? I'm leaving first!"

Tsunade had a bad premonition when she heard it, and hurriedly ran away.

It's better to leave this matter to Nawaki!

Grandma should just give Nawaki what these family heads need to learn.

She is optimistic about her stupid brother.

It's just right to help him open his mind and save him from being so naive and stupid.

In addition, many other ninja clans, such as Hyuga, Aburame, Inuzuka... and other ninja clans also reacted differently.

But they were very eager for these drugs.

Some of them were also ready to take action.

At this time, in the Hokage's office.

"Damn, I've always heard that Uchiha is going to open a pharmacy, but I didn't pay attention to it;"

"I didn't expect it to be so powerful!"

"Uchiha Yin is so hidden!"

"When did they master such powerful pharmaceutical technology and formula?"

Utatane Koharu said with an annoyed face.

Seeing the enemy making a lot of money is like losing money for her.

Moreover, the other party has good things in his hands, and she can't wait to get them and make this money herself.

Mitokado Homura on the side also frowned slightly and said: "Since Sarah got better a while ago, the uchiha clan has changed!"

"We still don't know how Uchiha changed!"

"We only know that it has a deep relationship with Sarah, and we don't know anything else. It's such a failure!"

Obviously, they were well-informed about the internal news of Uchiha before.

Recently, they are like blind and can't find out the real news about Uchiha.

Some people who were originally brainwashed began to waver, and the information they gave was unreliable.

Uncomfortable.

"Hey! How could I not know all this?"

"But what can we do? We have no good way to deal with Uchiha now!"

The Third Generation listened and said worriedly while smoking a dry pipe.

The most troublesome thing is obviously him, the Hokage, okay?

"Hiruzen, this can't go on!"

At this time, Danzo couldn't help but speak in a deep voice

"I see that this pharmacy is making a lot of money every day. With this alone, Uchiha may not be short of money in the future!"

"If this goes on, we will be more and more unable to restrict and suppress them!"

"Their strength will only become stronger and stronger, and their arrogance will only become more and more arrogant!"

"Why not just close their store and force them to hand over the formula of the medicine to the us in the name of the village!"

"After all, these can be regarded as strategic materials. How can they be controlled by individual families?"

"As long as you agree, I can do it."

Danzo is more jealous and radical than Utatane Koharu!

As soon as these words came out, Utatane Koharu and the others were shocked.

Several people hurriedly dissuaded him 

"Danzo, calm down! Don't do this!"

"If you really do this, there will be big problems!"

"That's right!"

The Third Generation also nodded, looked at Danzo seriously and said

"You can't do this! It's not legitimate! At that time, not only will Uchiha disagree, but other ninja clans will also oppose it!"

Today you can force Uchiha to hand over the prescription with such a ridiculous reason, tomorrow you can force the ninja clans to hand over the family secrets or something?

This loophole cannot be opened.

Otherwise, they and the families behind them will definitely be torn apart by other ninja clans in Konoha.

You, Sarutobi Hiruzen, are not the only one who can be the Hokage.

If we recognize you, you are the Hokage;

If we don't recognize you, then you are nothing.

Even Uchiha can't compete with the entire village, so can you, Sarutobi... and the other four tribes?

"What should we do? We can't just do nothing and watch Uchiha grow stronger day by day, right?" Danzo said angrily.

He felt that Sarutobi was too conservative and had too many concerns.

The combined strength of the four tribes, plus Anbu, was enough to deal with Uchiha.

They could even use the benefits of this medicine to attract some ninjas to stand with them.

Instead of spending a lot of money to buy it from Uchiha every month, it would be better to contribute this prescription, right?

Unfortunately, his idea was destined not to be approved by the Third Generation.

"Don't say it! This method can't be used! We will find an exception!"

The Third Generation saw that Danzo was still not giving up and was trying to trick him, so they immediately frowned and said firmly.

"KR..."

Danzo looked at the Third Generation angrily, speechless for a while, and simply turned his body, turned his back to the Third Generation, and sulked.

At this time, he is not the future Dark Perfect Ninja World.

Otherwise, he should have said directly to the Third Generation

"Sarutobi, you will regret it."

Then, he slammed the door and left.

At this time, Utatane Koharu couldn't help but say 

"What Danzo said is not without reason!"

"We can't just sit back and watch Uchiha continue to grow so strong!"

"We must find a way to suppress their growth!"

"Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of the teacher's hard work in the past?"

In fact, these are all polite words.

The real reason is still profit.

Konoha's cake is so big.

The market for drugs is so big.

The money is all earned by Uchiha, what do they earn?

Are they going to send their clansmen to risk their lives and do dangerous tasks?

These were previously done by Uchiha, Senju... and other big ninjas or civilian cannon fodder ninjas.

As Konoha's high-ranking officials, how could the families behind them do such a thankless job?

"Just wait! The opportunity will come back soon!"

The Third Generation pondered for a moment, and said faintly

"In the past two years, the major ninja villages have gradually recovered their vitality;"

"Cloud Shinobi, Rock Shinobi, and even Sand Shinobi Shinobi began to stir, and the war factions in each village began to rise;'

"They are not satisfied with the existing interests;"

"A new war is coming!"

"And if you want to kill people without bloodshed, there is only war!"

"Only in wartime do we have the greatest authority;"

"Once a war breaks out, we have a legitimate and irresistible reason to command any family of ninja to perform any mission!"

"Even if the mission fails and people die, it's no big deal!"

"It can be a glorious sacrifice for the village!"

"These can't be done in peacetime, what do you think?"

He actually doesn't like war.

He hopes that the ninja world will be peaceful, and everyone can sit down and talk about any conflicts, instead of fighting all day long.

It's really that the death of his last teacher left a huge shadow in his heart.

It scared him.

He hated war.

He was afraid that he and his family would die on the battlefield.

But now, he changed his mind.

Perhaps, he didn't have to go to the battlefield himself, he could just ask others to go!

Aren't you Uchiha strong?

Don't you want to make a name for yourself and seize the position of Hokage?

Sure, I'll give you this chance, go to the battlefield and seize it!

As long as you can come back alive, hehe!

"...."

Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura were stunned and frowned.

Mitokado Homura was very worried and said: "Hiruzen, is a new war coming?"

"Yes!"

The Third Generation nodded affirmatively: "From all the signs, it is true!"

"In one or two years at the shortest, three or five years at the longest, the war will inevitably break out!"

"The recent crisis in the Land of Whirlpools is actually a manifestation of the impending outbreak of war;"

"The fighting factions in each village are trying to obtain a strong enough sealing technique and even a suitable Jinchūriki carrier from the Uzumaki clan, so as to successfully seal the tailed beast and create qualified Jinchūriki as a war weapon."

"Other manifestations are everywhere;"

"You have also handled many things, it is impossible that you are not aware of this."

"Don't be lucky!"

Isn't this war an opportunity?

"Haha! Hiruzen, you finally got it!"

At this time, Danzo turned around at some point and said with a grim smile

"To deal with Uchiha, this extreme method should be used!"

"That's right! War will weaken Uchiha, the best weapon to weaken other ninja clans!"

"As long as we are in power, they have to obey the mobilization orders during the war.

"Just like the last war."

The Senju clan was still in its heyday at that time, and many people opposed them taking power and Sarutobi as Hokage.

If Uzumaki Mito had not chosen to support them, they would never have succeeded in taking power and gaining a foothold.

As a result, what is happening now?

The Senju clan is already on the decline, and the most elite were almost completely lost in the last war.

The side branches were also completely dismembered by their plan to integrate the Second Generation of Senju into the civilian population.

Many of the diehard Senju members were eliminated bit by bit through various dangerous missions in war and peacetime.

Look at how much strength and prestige the Senju have left in the village now?

The main reason is that most of the Senju clan members are straightforward.

Their minds are full of Konoha's glory.

They regard Konoha as the private property of the Senju.

As long as they use Konoha as a trick, they will succeed.

They can easily carry out the mission of sending themselves to death for this.

This time, they can completely replicate the means of World War I to target Uchiha and even the Senju who are dead but not stiff.

Danzo even thought that Uzumaki Mito was too annoying.

Why didn't she die earlier?

That way, he could secretly trick or kidnap the remaining Senju descendants to conduct the Wood Style experiment he had been waiting for for a long time!

If he could replicate the Wood Style, would Konoha still have any opponents?

If he could master the Wood Style, wouldn't the position of Hokage be easy to grasp?

"Danzo!"

The Third Generation listened, and although they agreed in their hearts, they still scolded Danzo with a stern face on the surface

"Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity!"

"Everything we do is for Konoha, not out of selfishness."

"Hahaha!"

Danzo couldn't help laughing wildly after hearing this

"Yes, yes, yes! Everything is for Konoha! Everything is for Konoha!!

You, Sarutobi Hiruzen, are much more vicious than me.

Much more hypocritical!

Danzo is always bold and responsible most of the time, not hypocritical.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen is different.

He is both responsible and independent.

"Perhaps, this is why you, Sarutobi, were able to become Hokage in the first place?"

"Very insidious!"

"It seems that I have to learn a lot from you in the future!"

"Let's start by holding high the banner of Konoha! Hehe!"

Danzo sneered in his heart.

Five days have passed in a flash.

These days, the Third Generation has not made any big moves.

Instead, the various ninja clans could not help but visit Sarah one after another to discuss the ordering of drug shares.

With the current output of Ethan, it is naturally impossible to meet all the needs of everyone.

But every ninja clan that came to the door, more or less, gained some gains and obtained some shares.

Among them, Ino-Shika-Chō, who responded the fastest, and Tsunade, who had the best relationship with Ethan, obtained the most shares.

In addition, Sarah did not choose to give all the shares to the various ninja clans.

Instead, 30% was kept and sold at Uchiha Pharmacy.

Although, some of these will still be bought by people from major ninja clans.

But under the single-person purchase limit, many small and medium-sized ninja clans and civilian ninjas can still buy some.

These people bought, except for body-building potions, such as nutritional pills and conditioning potions, which they were reluctant to use during training.

They were kept for use when they were on missions and encountered danger.

If used well, they can save lives.

Because of Sarah's request, Ethan could only ask Kureha to help make some medicines every day to increase the production area.

Of course, as a price, he needs to use high-quality green plum wine as a reward.

In addition, a batch of medicine books must be provided regularly, and the supply cannot be interrupted.

In order not to increase the workload, Ethan had to agree.

"Perhaps, I should ask some pharmaceutical doctors from Drum Island to do it for me?"

Ethan thought suddenly.

At least, it is not a problem for these drugs with reduced efficacy even if the doctors learn the formula.

Because most of them can also prepare similar medicines with the rich resources of the pirate world.

Especially the nutritional pills with 10% effect.

This thing will definitely not sell well in the pirate world.

Because it is a chicken rib.

Too expensive and too impractical.

With this money, it is better to buy a few kilograms of Sea Kings meat directly, and the effect is much stronger.

Immediately, Ethan communicated this idea with Kureha.

"Haha!"

Kureha laughed loudly after hearing this

"You should have done this a long time ago! You can open a drug factory in a nearby town specializing in the production of these drugs."

"In this way, you don't have to bother me."

"Haha!"

Ethan smiled embarrassedly after hearing this, and then rubbed his hands and said

"But you know, I don't have much reputation here, and I may need to rely on your reputation to open a factory.

Please come forward to help me manage it and hire some pharmaceutical people."

"I am willing to support you with 500 bottles of top-grade green plum wine, plus 10 kilograms of gold as a reward, how about it?"

If others don't know, how can he not know Kureha's prestige in this country?

Ordinary citizens may not know much about her, but the high-ranking officials of the kingdom are definitely well-known.

Even Ethan suspected that the king of the drum island and even many high-ranking officials were in awe of Kureha.

Otherwise, why could she easily occupy the palace as her residence after the next king Wapol messed up and was expelled in the future?

Wapol shouldn't have taken action against her?

"Oh?"

Kureha heard it, raised her eyebrows slightly and said

"Very generous!"

"Okay! In order to make it easier for us later, I promised Long about this!"

"The agreed reward must not be less!"

"In addition, buying land, building factories, hiring people, and building material channels all cost money. Are you sure you have so much money?"
