27 Chapter 27

Aoki completed the goal he had set for himself that he would raise his Fuinjutsu skill to max level and master the Flying Thunder God jutsu. So the high tension which lasted for a period of more than two months, was now gone and he wanted to enjoy a break period this time for a few weeks at least.

Of course this break would only be from the missions , not training. Now he was greedy for greater strength and had the potential so it was impossible for him to stop spending time training at least for few hours a day.

The surreal experience from when he experienced using Flying Thunder God countless times, gave him another great benefit aside from the mastery of the skill.

His body strength or constitution did not change but his reflexes were sharpened to a very high degree now. After teleportation to another place , his body could react instantly to the situation resulting in minimal loss of reaction time.

Now Aoki was sure that he could easily keep up with high speed battles. Still he needed to train his strength and speed more to use this new ability more effectively.

The atmosphere in the village was peaceful and Aoki was enjoying his time except from training , lazing around.

Aoki did not forget to spend some time with Anko. At first Anko did not even hide her displeasure when Aoki tried to talk with her but now she did not seem to mind and happily chatted with him.

Though the venue of their meeting was always a tea stall and Aoki had to pay the bill for both of them after every meeting. He did not mind it one bit though because dango and tea did not cost much anyway even though Anko ate tens of dango sticks easily.

He always felt relaxed when watching her munching on dango with a blissful expression on her face. The gap with her headstrong personality was interesting.

Today was the fourth day since Aoki returned back from the last mission. The training session ended in the morning and now he had come to Aoi's restaurant to eat some delicious Oyakodon.

This restaurant was a well known one in the village. The owner's name was Aoi and she was a retired Tokubetsu jounin. She was already fifty plus so nobody came to make advances on her. Instead they came to eat her cooking which was really delicious.

Sitting at a counter seat Aoki was chatting with Aoi while waiting for a person who had an appointment with him. The idea of doing a good business had sprouted in Aoki's mind since two days ago.

His Fuinjutsu level was max now so creating some basic and medium level seals and selling them was entirely possible as it took little time for him to create them.

When the idea came , Aoki did not waste time and immediately contacted a trustworthy person for some good advice. Aoki had no practical experience doing business in his past life so it was necessary to get help from a sharp individual.

Nara Shikaku was the perfect person in Aoki's opinion for taking advice from. The Nara regularly visited Hokage and had connections all over the departments in the government. So with his help, it would be an easy task to purchase a shop in a nice location and the procedures could be completed swiftly too.

Aoki had met the man personally two days ago and found him really interesting. He acted lazy almost all the time but the efficiency with which he completed his work , was simply something which no one else can copy. Simply put the guy had the smarts and knew how to put least amount of hard work and obtain great success with it.

Aoki did not have to wait long as the door opened and the scar faced man came walking inside the restaurant yawning.

" I came as promised Aoki. The procedures wont be a problem but Sandaime expressed his concern that you should drop the idea of selling seals." Shikaku said with a bored tone while taking a seat beside Aoki and ordered a bottle of sake with some pickles.

Aoki just shook his head when he heard the last part and could not help but smirk. " Haha.. dont take the old man's words seriously. Its true that he maybe be thinking that creating all the seals will take a lot of my time and leave me exhausted but his main worry is that I will stop taking missions instead. "

" That should be the case but you should seriously show some respect while addressing the Hokage."

Aoki just clicked his tongue once and did not retort. He knew that most of the Konoha nin had blind respect for the old man. So it would be a bad idea to argue with them about this matter.

Shikaku did not try to reprimand Aoki anymore either as he found it too troublesome. He took a sip of his sake and decided to get to business. " So did you finish thinking about the list of products?"

" Well I thought a lot and decided that it will be better to focus on seals which are heavely used by our ninja. Anti perception , anti sound , chakra disturbance , explosion tags , storage scrolls , weight manipulation seals. These much should be enough right ?"

Shikaku silently thought for a few seconds and nodded his head. " Well that's about it to start up the business. Though you will need to prepare a lot of stock for each product because you said it yourself that ninja used these seals a lot."

Aoki smiled in relief as his plan turned out to be correct and continued to listen further. " Leave the matters of purchasing the shop and renovating it to me. According to my estimation , the shop will be ready to open for business in eight days. Just make sure that you have the products ready in time on your side."

" Hehe.. dont worry Shikaku san. The stock is already ready. I will deliver them at your residence within an hour from now."

Shikaku was surprised when he heard this. He had honestly thought even eight days will not be enough but turns out that Aoki did not need even one. Shikaku did not think that Aoki would lie to him either because he knew that Aoki was not a person to make blind promises. Besides Sandaime personally vouched for Aoki too which was the main reason why Shikaku decided to trust him so quickly in the first place.

After exchanging another few sentences, Aoki left the restaurant and went back to his apartment. The sealing tags and storage scrolls were all stored inside his system inventory so he needed to take them out and sort them properly before delivering them to Shikaku's residence in the Nara Compound.

Shikaku reached home in the evening and was satisfied when he heard from his wife Yoshino that Aoki had fulfilled his promise.

But when he saw the stock with his own eyes, he was really shocked by the totally unexpected amount.

Aoki had delivered seven large top grade sealing scrolls which contained more than two thousand of each sealing tag he had mentioned at the restaurant, above one thousand medium grade and above ten thousand low grade sealing scrolls.

Shikaku would have been even more shocked if he knew that all these scrolls except the large top grade sealing scrolls were created in just slightly more than two months of time. These all were the product of daily practice of Fuinjutsu by Aoki's shadow clones.

Aoki meanwhile was having a relaxing dip in hot spring while sipping on some high quality rice sake. Now he did not have to worry about the shop so will enjoy even more free time from now on until his break period from ninja work lasted.
