Naruto: Merchant in the Shadows

The flying machine, created with the help of human technology, was moving further and further away from the airport. In a matter of minutes, the plane covered tens of kilometers both in height and in length.

The flight on which he moved was supposed to start a few hours ago, but right before departure there was a technical problem. Which neither the management nor the passengers were happy about.

One of these passengers was more influential in the current realities than ninety-nine percent of the world's population. A young genius who founded his corporation without outside investment and outside help has climbed to the top.

At first, he wanted to fly with other people, but the situation forced him to change his economy class seat to business. Still, he has plenty of money.

- Boss, are you absolutely sure that we need to sign a contract with France?

A short man who looked tired asked. The work has left its mark on the health of this person. Recently, he and his team have been trying to withstand pressure from the outside, so as not to give up a thriving company. The only thing that has kept them afloat so far is their owner, who was the only rightful owner.

And Russia, where Oleg was born and created his company, gave all possible benefits so that the boy put pressure on the economy of foreign enterprises.

- You see, Lesh, trading is a difficult process in which you either succeed so that no one can get you. Either you bend over... - The guy was looking out the window of the plane. The weather outside certainly did not please. The flight took place in a thunderstorm, which the flight company wanted to avoid by all means.

- There is no other way. Death awaits you everywhere, once you succeed at something bigger. The bumps on top are not at all happy about the new pieces on their board. And we have already managed to strengthen ourselves in Russia, where they support us. Therefore, it will not hurt us to get a couple of clients at all.

- Ha... On the one hand, you are right.

The man opened a bottle of whiskey brought by him to calm his nerves somehow.

- Yes, I am right on other sides as well. These are just temporary difficulties that we have to overcome. As a last resort, we will sell some part of the shares to the state so that they do not try to put pressure on us from abroad.

- Do you think something will change?

"Perhaps neither you nor I know what we should expect in the future. Maybe death is waiting for us right now.

- Oh, what are you, spit it out! I may not be a believer, but you never know what... You know the situation with the plane before our departure.

- I know...

Oleg exhaled, dressed in a loose inexpensive suit, leaning back in his chair, which with its soft and smooth coating tickled the skin of the guy's hands.

- You know, you were right. - He gave a voice, trying to think over the whole situation that happened.

- What are you talking about? - Alexey did not understand, drinking a second glass of whiskey. He urgently needed to relax. What time are they out of the access zone for everyone, what can be used.

- I had to buy my own plane. Fork out for his service, but don't linger and take no more risks.

- And I told you right away, but there's nothing you can do about it.

- Okay, I think I'll take a look at Naruto. - A tablet appeared in the guy's hands as if out of thin air.

- You're at it again... This technology has not even been demonstrated to the authorities yet. And you took her with you... Also for watching your anime... How do you like watching it anyway? The graphics are terrible.

The man turned on his father, completely forgetting about who he really is. If someone else had been in his place, he would have been fired long ago. But Alexey helped Oleg at one time, which is why he got a place in the company as a personal secretary.

- You just don't understand anything. It's not about drawing, over time you won't pay attention to it at all, the main thing is the plot, which even the dumbest anime has. But in foreign TV series everything is so prim, even the eyes bleed.

And the guy ignored the first part of the question, suppressing the man with his whims so that he forgot about the little prank.

And now, peace seems to have come. One of the couple was sleeping peacefully, having been slightly drunk before. And the second enthusiastically reviewed the "Hurricane Chronicles". But the villain fate was against this peacetime.

In an instant, the situation changed, the general background ceased to be bright and cozy. Alarm signals began to ring everywhere, which were accompanied by a play of red color on board the aircraft.

[Says the pilot of the plane, I ask everyone not to worry. We just entered a zone of turbulence, soon the situation will change]

The conductors approached the respected people several times, who were no less worried than the passengers themselves, but tried to remain calm. Only the crumpled white uniform betrayed their uncertainty a little.

The pilot's earlier words did not inspire hope at all, especially after more than fifteen minutes had passed, and the situation only felt worse.

- Oleg, we need to solve something! There is a chance that these are our last moments of life.

- And I've already decided everything... - The guy calmly replied, fully accepting reality.

- And you're so calm?

"If we're going to die here, I'm going to die here." I have done everything so that the one who can inherit my brainchild will survive. - He smiled, opening himself a view from the porthole.

A turbine was burning on the side of the aircraft, which gave both to understand the whole essence of their life.

- That would be the answer to our question. These are the last minutes of our lives.

- Ha... - Alexey finally untied his tie. - This suit has already finished me, at least in the last minutes of life you can really relax. By the way, who did you give the management of the company to?

- Worthy...

Explosion...

***

- Good evening country, today we witnessed the death of our hero with you! The death of the first genius of this century, who was our compatriot. Oleg Orlov's death is a shock both for us and for the whole world. The company that handled the flights responsible for this egregious incident has already suffered serious losses. I will ask you all to say kind words to this person at parting.

The whole world felt the death of Oleg. Although he was an important figure for only a couple of years, but what he managed to do was greatly reflected for the better for all countries of the world.

Mourning lasted for several days. There were those, of course, who only scoffed at this situation, but such individuals immediately went to jail. It didn't matter where and when something was written or said, they were severely punished for this.

The whole world will remember this loss, an important loss for them. He will accept what the genius has left behind and will use it for the benefit of humanity. But the owner will only be a decent one who has passed all the tests...

***

The bright sun beat into his eyes, from which the guy blew up, rubbing his eyes.

- Why is it shining like that? There was a ve... cher..

He stopped, trying to remember the past few minutes. How he flew his friend straight to death. And an explosion...

- I'm dead... What the hell is this?

[Welcome]

A holographic text appeared in front of Oleg, which was clearly not simple. He turned his head around to figure out where he was, leaving the inscription for later.

Resting his hand on the soft grass, he was surprised at how his hand looks now. It's kind of small for someone who is over twenty years old. But it was a reality, the hands were really small. After turning them over, he left the question for later.

The first and most important task is to find out about the place where he got, so to speak. Of course, he also studied quantum reality in the last world, but there is something completely different from what he studied.

And the first thing, oddly enough, that caught my eye right away, was too big a tree. Even if you imagine that he is a child, the tree is too big and wide even so.

- And where did it take me? I read that death is not the end, but this... beyond fiction..

Thanks for reading and support!
