The Days of Being the Richest Man in the Ninja World

Chapter 99. Who Are You?

---

A full-body massage.

Refreshed and rejuvenated.

Yuto lazily stretched and sat up straight.

At this moment, he had no idea that White Zetsu was observing him.

During this time—

The nurturing plan had been a complete success.

He was sure that when his big brother returned, he would be deeply moved to see his son growing up so chubby and healthy.

Of course—

That's what brothers do for each other!

Now—

His businesses within the Land of Fire were stable, and operations in the Land of Rain were progressing steadily.

Estimating…

In a few days, everything should be ready for an upgrade.

During this time—

He had heard that Minato and his students had been making big waves, demonstrating Konoha's might and striking fear into their enemies.

Apparently, many ninja villages had issued orders: "If you encounter Namikaze Minato or his disciple Uchiha Obito, you are permitted to abandon the mission and retreat! Protect your own body first!"

A great teacher produces great students!

Because of Obito's growing fame, it had also brought Yuto's milk tea brand into the spotlight!

It seemed that many ninjas were now familiar with the name Yuto Milk Tea.

As for Obito—

He was steadily moving closer to his dream.

To become Hokage!

The first step—Make a name for himself in the ninja world!

Seeing his child growing up, as a father, Yuto couldn't be happier.

Shaking his head in amusement, he looked up at Suzune and asked, "By the way, how are the billboards doing recently?"

"They're getting used up pretty fast!" Suzune was momentarily stunned by the question, but quickly responded,

"Well, it is a battlefield, after all! Oh, and—someone sent a message saying that when Obito saw them, he destroyed quite a few. He seemed really angry."

"Ah, the boy is still young—probably just shy," Yuto sighed dramatically, shaking his head.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about when it comes to gaining fame!"

Then, with a grand wave of his hand—exuding the air of a wealthy Konoha businessman—he declared, "Print another ten thousand! Make sure every ninja sees them—whether they're from Konoha or another village! Same design! Don't forget Obito's picture!"

At his words—

Suzune gave him a strange look, hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "…Alright."

Yuto could be so mischievous at times!

Meanwhile—

Yuto's lips curled into a satisfied smile.

"I'm sure Obito must be absolutely thrilled!"

This move—

Obito's fame skyrocketed.

And thanks to Obito's fame—

Yuto Milk Tea also became even more well-known.

A win-win situation!

…

At the same time—

"Whew~"

Obito, wearing his bizarre spiral-patterned mask, suddenly shivered all over. For some reason—

He felt a deep sense of danger in his heart.

But the place they were in…

It was supposed to be completely secure.

And all their enemies had already been defeated.

Where could the danger be coming from?

He looked up at his teacher, Minato, and complained, "Sensei, if you're gonna give me a mask, at least pick one that looks cool!"

This spiral pattern is so ugly!

Minato laughed. "You don't like it? When we get back, you can pick a new one—on me."

Seeing Obito's cheerful mood, Minato felt relieved.

It seemed like—

Obito had finally started to move on from his sorrow.

Indeed, sometimes when you're feeling down, going outside and taking action is the best remedy. Especially this mission… It had been truly incredible.

Minato sighed in thought, then turned to the hesitant blonde teenager standing before him. With a warm smile, he nodded and said, "I know you have a lot to say, but now isn't the time. Someday, you'll have your chance in the future."

With that—

He patted the boy's shoulder and turned to look at a Konoha ninja he didn't recognize.

"We'll have to seal this memory."

"Fourth Hokage…"

A short-haired ninja, wearing a forehead protector with a visor, hesitated.

He looked at the golden-haired, sunshine-like man in front of him with a complicated expression.

He opened his mouth—

But in the end…

He didn't know what to say.

So instead—

He punched the dead-fish-eyed Kakashi right on the head. Then, watching as Kakashi clutched his head in pain, he sighed in satisfaction and said, "That's for all your hospitality, senpai. And also—what the hell is with that 'Taro Ball Jutsu'? Change the name! That's Chidori!"

"???"

What the hell?!

Kakashi looked completely baffled.

"Oi, oi! Chidori is my jutsu!" The masked boy next to him protested. "Kakashi's technique is Taro Ball!"

"…" Yamato's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at the young man with bizarre mask. This entire journey… had been mind-blowing.

Konoha actually had a genius like this?!

If possible—

He never wanted to cross paths with this "senpai" again.

But—

Kakashi-senpai hadn't awakened his Sharingan yet. So this must be before the Kannabi Bridge battle?

And this masked kid… Three Tomoe Sharingan?!

That meant—

There was no way he was that legendary hero!

And—Rin-senpai was here too?!

What a rare sight!

Yamato sighed in amazement.

Aside from Kakashi, he had only ever heard of the other two. He never expected to actually meet one of them today.

Oh, right.

And there was also Lord Fourth…

Fate.

Was it truly impossible to change?

His expression grew complicated as he raised his fist, about to smack the masked boy on the head—But suddenly, he froze. His lower body instinctively tensed, and instead, he grumbled, "Chidori was invented by Kakashi! There's also Raikiri! You brat, stop talking nonsense!"

"What do you mean nonsense?"

"Where am I wrong?"

"I invented Chidori!"

"Heh." Yamato rolled his eyes.

But after a moment, he paused, glancing at the masked boy who was still arguing, then at Kakashi's expressionless face.

His heart skipped a beat.

Hesitating, he asked, "Wait… Did he actually invent it?"

"Yeah." Kakashi nodded with a look of disdain. "Mine was just… Taro Ball Jutsu."

"WHAT?!"

Yamato was stunned!

But after a brief moment—

Seeing those smug Sharingan eyes, he seemed to realize something.

After his best friend died, in order to honor his memory, Kakashi renamed his own jutsu from Taro Ball Jutsu to Chidori?!

Such a deep bond…

It was entirely possible!

But—

Those Sharingan eyes didn't match!

Was there some kind of hidden truth?

Had Konoha intentionally altered the story?

Yamato's eyelid twitched as he stared at Obito, his tone growing serious. "What's your name?"

"Me?"

Hearing someone finally ask his name, Obito puffed out his chest, placed his hands on his hips, and laughed, "Remember this name well! I am the future Hokage—"

Before he could finish—

"The Fourth Hokage, Minato-sama! The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade-sama!"

"Tsunade-sama became Hokage?!"

The group was momentarily surprised.

Obito, still grinning, continued asking, "Then what about the Sixth?"

"We don't know yet."

"Then that means I'll be the Sixth Hokage! I am—"

He suddenly paused, as if recalling something.

Then, with a smug grin, he declared, "Konoha's Pervert—Uchiha Yuto!"

"…"

Kakashi's mouth twitched. Rin's eyelid jerked. Minato… nearly messed up his sealing jutsu.

Looking at the extremely proud Obito, Minato didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"This kid, Obito…"

However—

Yamato froze, scanning his memory for any ninja in Konoha named—

"Uchiha… Yuto?"

Who was that?!

Just as he was about to press further—

"Alright."

Minato clapped his hands together, smiling. "That's enough talking. It's time for us to leave. As for the rest—let's discuss it when we meet again!"

He glanced at the blonde-haired boy, nodded slightly, and said, "Everyone, come over!"

Before anyone could respond, Minato formed a hand seal.

In truth—

Deep inside—

He had so many questions.

But—

Seeing the child all grown up now…

He didn't dare to ask.

With a calm smile, he said, "See you again!"

…

Time flew by.

The Battle of Kannabi Bridge threw Iwagakure into a weakened position.

The Battle of Kikyo Mountain erupted.

Orochimaru led Konoha's forces against Sunagakure.

Both sides suffered heavy losses, but in the end—Sunagakure was too exhausted to continue fighting. They had no choice but to withdraw and chose to form an alliance.

Kumogakure and Kirigakure, meanwhile, continued demanding that Konoha hand over Danzo—Or they would never stop the war.

However—

Everyone knew—

The war was about to end.

…

At the same time.

Yuto looked at his system interface and smiled.

"Finally… an upgrade."
