Akatsuki and Konoha's First Collaboration

T/N: I was today-years-old when I found out the 'Land of Field' was actually the 'Land of Rice', let me go back and change that

###

When this task popped up, Makoto knew that the fun-seeking system was messing around again.

Why does the affinity degree have to be 99?

What exactly does it mean to have a affinity degree of 99?

Most importantly, why does it have to be the opposite sex?

Makoto is 100% sure that Minatsuki has reached 100 – the admiring eyes of the woman when she look at him, as well as the usual details, cannot be faked.

And he does like Minatsuki - because he's lecherous.

But what about other women? What should I do if I accidentally cross 99 and reach 100?

Not only did his favorability fail to meet the standard, but his harem was blown up again.

The most important thing is that these tasks are all based on the system, and he can't even cheat.

For example, a long time ago, Makoto used genjutsu to hypnotize some prisoners on death row, and even sealed their memories, making them think that he was Pain, and then beat them up.

But it was useless, the system did not recognize this Pain.

Then Makoto sealed himself with genjutsu and temporary memory, and beat up the opponent again, but it still didn't work – the system didn't give him a chance to cheat at all.

As soon as he thought about it, he knew that there were many pitfalls under this achievement, and if one of them was not resolved, something would happen.

As soon as he thought about it, he knew that there were many pitfalls under this achievement, and if one of them was not resolved, something would happen.

Even if there are pitfalls in the management achievements, at worst, you will lose money and lose some prestige. With the current size of Konoha, you can still bear it.

Take the newly completed Green Will as an example. When everything went well, that relative of Ryusei easily became the new talker of the Land of Grass.

But even if the worst happens, it will never get out of control.

After all, Konoha United Fruit has actually occupied the general trend in the Land of Grass, and it is nothing more than exploding some gold coins and losing some people.

Want to drive Konoha United Fruit out? Thousands of Kusa-nin and banana farmers will never agree, and the big and small fields will also fiercely resist.

At worst, Makoto bowed his head, and this matter will probably be over.

If you are not satisfied with this... then thanks to the special system of Konoha United Fruit, the names of the three major countries will come out to chat with you.

But now this task...

Originally, it would have been a big deal for Makoto not to do it, but now that the bag has been brought up, he doesn't even have a chance to make a loud noise to prevaricate it.

In Makoto's impression, Kabuto is like a weed that will never be destroyed no matter how it is blown. No matter how the wind howls, he will be working hard to grab nutrients from the barren soil, trying to make himself stronger.

But in fact... the current Kabuto is really a child of eight or nine years old.

Even a peerless star who will become famous in the future, when he was still a baby, the greatest achievement he made was to stuff his little feet into his own mouth.

As an orphan, in the deepest part of his heart, Kabuto has always longed for a complete family.

A few years later, after going through vicissitudes, the desperate Kabuto may give up.

But now because Konoha's life is good, not only did he not give up, but he was even more eager.

And the appearance of Makoto happened to cover the role of father...

Strong, respected, wise – although also known for being scornful of the world, genuinely cared about him and respected him.

The most important thing is that he has a very good relationship with Nono, whom Kabuto regards as his mother.

As for the problem of the harem, which was criticized by many people, Kabuto didn't take it to heart at all.

Because Konoha is Hidden Village.

Under normal circumstances, a Kekkei genkai ninja like Makoto who has only one page left in his household registration book and is extremely powerful will definitely marry many women to continue the clan bloodline if time and energy allow.

As for whether this is legal or not... Increasing family members is absolutely politically correct, and no one can tell what's wrong... This is the legacy of the Warring States Period.

...And it is said to be a harem, but anyone who really understands Makoto's information knows that so far, there are only two women who have a definite relationship with him, one is Minatsuki, and the other is Temari... At least it will take more than ten years Temari can truly become a woman, and now she is basically raised as a daughter.

Makoto's scumbags are all scumbags, and he won't be like the third brother (Lee Sam from 'Hero of Tomorrow'), who will start with this kind of milk dumpling.

Maybe it was because Nonoo smiled too gently, or maybe Makoto seemed too ambiguous when he came here often. After feeling the sweetness of the family, Kabuto, who has been doing high-pressure work like a spy, finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He wants more.

This is nothing.

Who is not greedy?

But...his timing was terrible.

It's normal for orphans to want a father. Makoto doesn't mind being the father of every orphan in Konoha, and he is also happy about it.

He can even be the man of every woman in the whole Konoha, and the man of every man in the whole Konoha... uhh, these two are wrong.

These two are still unacceptable.

But before talking about it, Kabuto should discuss it with him first.

Now he said it suddenly, and it happened to be heard by Nono, in case Makoto refused on the spot, how should he solve it?

For a while, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Makoto looks at Nono, and Nono also looks at Makoto.

It's just that seeing Makoto didn't answer directly, some tears appeared in Nono's eyes – since he didn't say anything, it meant he said everything.

Makoto knew that Nono liked him a little bit, and sometimes she would look at him with special eyes.

But in Konoha, almost all young ninjas who don't have a boyfriend will look at him that way.

Who made him so young, and already a Kage. And Minatsuki considers herself a mistress, and has always been non-competitive in this regard. As for Temari...No one generally regards her as a threat.

Subconsciously, thinking girls always want something to happen to him.

But this charm due to distance will eventually be worn out by time, and they will finally realize the reality and return to their families and become wives.

Makoto originally thought that Nono would do the same, but now he was called out...

At this time, complete rejection is also a way.

But Makoto really couldn't give up Kabuto.

From the beginning of the role of Kabuto was a three-way passer-by, Kabuto struggled all the way to the end, and became a ninja boss. His character and ability are the top in the ninja world.

And his heart is towards Konoha.

In the end, he became the director of the orphanage in Konoha.

This is very, very important.

It would be a pity to give up such a talent.

So now the only option is to...

Makoto grabbed Nono's hands with difficulty.

Nono's hands were small, soft, but a little cold, showing the extremely intense psychological fluctuations of women at this time.

"Nono-san, in fact, I have liked you since a long time ago."

He confessed to Yakushi Nono.

Of course it's a confession, he's not the male lead of a light novel, he will worry about gain and loss, as if he didn't hang up.

Makoto's problem is that he doesn't have much time to maintain a relationship, and he doesn't want to see the harem of only two people being seriously exploded.

But he was even more unwilling to bear the loss of losing Kabuto, so he had to give up temporarily if he had some concerns.

The widow is very lecherous, has no pressure on women to confess, and likes to use ambiguous sentences to bully Pakura who has no emotional experience because of years of fighting.

Hearing what Makoto said, some warmth returned to Nono's face.

These warm colors became more and more intense, and finally turned into a delicate crimson.

The ups and downs in life are so abrupt that even she can't bear it.

The person she silently admired suddenly responded to her feelings, how should she respond?

"Re...really?"

"I'm not a person who is very good at expressing my own feelings. As you know, as a shadow, sometimes even if I hate someone, I can't say it out, but I have to talk to him and laugh... But no matter what , this intention is true, otherwise I wouldn't come here often."

It is indeed a very abnormal thing for Hokage to come to the orphanage often.

– So the rumors are endless.

People only want to believe what they want to believe. After getting a clear confession from Makoto, Nono felt that her body became extremely light.

In this era, she is not young.

But at this moment, she felt that she had returned to her maidenhood.

The flowers that have been shy for a long time now begin to bloom again, revealing their fragrance to their heart's content.

Makoto knew in his heart that Nono was totally defenseless against him at this time.

But he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but decided to clarify certain things first.

"But Nono..." Makoto subtly changed the address to make them closer, "You should know that I have other women. I can't make up my mind for a long time because..."

The woman here refers, of course, to Minatsuki.

With Minatsuki's personality, he will definitely support him in opening a harem.

But other women may not be able to accept Minatsuki.

"I don't care."

Almost instantly, Nono gave an affirmative answer.

"Really? Even if I have to sleep with them a lot of the time, and even give birth to children that don't belong to you... Is that okay?"

"I don't care."

"Then... even if I am very lustful, I may add other female partners..."

"I don't care."

Makoto felt that what he said was already too much, but he didn't expect that she didn't care about it.

"So... what do you care about?"

"I only care about one thing...can you love me until I close my eyes and die?"

This love is too humble.

She wasn't even overbearing as Temari when it comes to snatching toys.

Makoto couldn't even be sure what she liked about him.

Is it because of his strong support for Konoha's orphanage? Or did he often come to visit orphans? These two are just right for her motherly appetite? Or maybe it was Stockholm formed by her strong sense of shame when Makoto rejected her when she wanted to dedicate her life...

Never mind.

This is not the modern urban diet of men and women who have to fall in love, all kinds of misunderstandings, all kinds of unavailable, all kinds of derailments, mistresses, car accidents, abortions, cancer...

Since two adults have this idea, then they will have a story.

So Makoto pressed the opponent's little hand on his chest with difficulty.

"Then Nono-san, today is the first day we officially started dating, it's the anniversary."

"...Mhm."

Nono's voice was weak, but the watery light in her eyes was already the best answer.

The Kabuto who's standing on the side also showed a heartfelt smile.

Although he couldn't directly make the two of them a husband and wife, but the two started a formal relationship, which was quite satisfying for him.

He also knew that what he said was a bit reckless, but... if he didn't make a move, there would be no chance...

... ...

This meal is simple and warm.

After dinner, Makoto stayed directly.

The three of them had a long sleep meeting before falling asleep together.

Just like a real family of three.

The next day, when Makoto opened his eyes again, there was no trace of Kabuto.

On his bed, there is only a note.

Thank you.

... It's not necessarily that Kabuto can't see it, it's just the desire in his heart, and it can't be curbed after all.

He was still thinking, as his godson, whether he should let Kabuto continue to participate in dangerous undercover work, but the little guy stopped his thoughts with practical actions.

Perhaps he thought that the more useful he was, the stronger the relationship between Makoto and Nono would be.

... After all, Kabuto is a traditional ninja, born in the war era, and some ideas are destined to be different from some kid born in the peaceful era.

And with Kabuto's departure, the number 0 in the father's mission also quietly changed, becoming 1.

Calculated in this way, the affinity between him and Nono should be 99.

As long as he takes in nine more godsons or goddaughters, this task will be considered complete. And Nono manages the orphanage, and this task is almost without difficulty.

Of course, Makoto's EQ is not so low. Even if this task can be completed now, he still has to wait.

He had to consider Nono's thoughts, as well as Kabuto's thoughts.

...Children always hope that they are special in the eyes of their parents.

Anyway, Pain won't call at the door for a while, so it doesn't matter if you wait for a while.

But overall, this is already a pretty good result.

At this time, Nono had also gotten up, and the two of them got tired of it for a while. After making some mistakes that idiot couples often make, Nono arranged Makoto's clothes with her own hands, and he was sent oout of the door before the children got up.

On a serious note, this is Makoto's first time to be in a romantic relationship.

On Minatsuki's side, he basically got on the bus first and then bought the ticket.

He didn't realize it at first, but when he realized it, the other party was already his wife.

It's okay, it's just that the process and stickiness of a foolish couple are missing...

When Makoto left the orphanage, he was naturally seen by many passers-by who got up early. It's just that everyone's emotions are very stable, and there is no special reaction... No one let the rumors spread for so long.

Unless Nono is pregnant now, this kind of rumor that Hokage came out of the head of the orphanage's house will no longer be able to excite the melon eaters.

After solving Kabuto's problem, and thus confirming Aunt Snake's real choice, Makoto decided to act again.

He decided to find a way to swallow the Land of Rice and give it to Aunt Snake to play with.

Aunt Snake is a research madman, she doesn't care much about many things. Even with the recruitment from Akatsuki, Aunt Snake lacked interest.

With sufficient funds for the experiment, Aunt Snake just wanted to stay at home and conduct research.

But as Hokage, he couldn't just rest assured because of this.

After all, Aunt Snake is not in Konoha all year round, and the relationship between them is indeed a little rusty. In this case, Aunt Snake must feel the strength and sincerity of Konoha.

Since you are in the Land of Rice all the year round, let's give you the Land of Rice to play.

With Konoha's current situation, it is impossible to take the initiative to swallow the Land of Rice, that would be too taboo.

It's not that they don't have this ability at all, but that they can't do it.

However, it is feasible to rule the Land of Rice economically and make Aunt Snake a Kage.

And if one can rule the Land of Rice, the pressure on many places in the Land of Fire and Konoha will be further reduced.

Land of Rice is one of the most famous granaries in the entire Naruto world.

In the words of their P club players, the Land of Rice is as fat as Constantinople.

T/N: 'P club' refers to transmigrators

T/N: 'Constantinople' was the capital of the Roman Empire in 330-1204, then the capital of Latin Empire (1204-1261), then the Byzantine Empire (1261-1453), and then the Ottoman Empire (1453-1922)

And it's the whole country.

– Except for the Land of Fire, the names of other countries are more or less related to the characteristics of their own country. For example, the Land of Wind is full of wind and sand, the Land of Lightning really has a lot of lightning strikes, and the Land of Earth is located on a plateau. Just by looking at the name of Land of Rice (field), you can know what is the most popular in this country.

If they can obtain a large amount of low-priced food from the Land of Rice, the people of the Land of Fire will definitely benefit immensely.

– Makoto honestly couldn't think of how to increase Konoha's reputation in a short period of time.

It's not that there is really no way, but powerful cards often represent huge risks...

However, considering the daimyo's attitude, it is not completely unacceptable to maintain a low reputation for a period of time.

It's just that if this is the case, Konoha has to find supplies from many other places for the people of the Land of Fire.

The common people are very pure. You are good to them, they may not say it, but they all know it.

A large number of bananas entering the Land of Fire market has indeed reduced the life pressure of many Land of Fire residents, but in the final analysis, the favorite staple food of people in the Naruto World is still rice.

The neurotic frenzy that would rather have beriberi and not eat any side dishes than eat rice.

But if only Konoha is allowed to do this kind of thing, it will be somewhat tricky.

After all, the Land of Rice is different from the Land of Grass, and it is a famously fertile land. From a long time ago, people have realized the richness of the Land of Rice, and started countless wars based on it.

Until now, there are still two forces in Land of RIce who are constantly fighting.

Moreover, the attitude of foreign countries towards the Land of Rice is also relatively...

Even a good-for-nothing like the Land of Grass can have his own Kusagakure, let alone whether it can fight, at least they really have the goods.

In theory, Land of Rice, which should be richer, does not have its own hidden village. In the original work, Aunt Snake established the first hidden village in Land of Rice after she defected... This alone is enough to show the attitude of many people.

The difficulty this time is not only to reconcile the war within the Land of Rice, but also how to silence other forces.

This is bound to be a difficult reconciliation.

Fortunately, Makoto can now directly cooperate with the four Great Hidden Villages.

With one order from him, all the diplomats from the Four Great Hidden Villages came.

Makoto said that three missing one, and if he asked them to play mahjong, they might not come.

T/N: 'three missing one' refers to Mahjong's 4-player and 3-player games

But Makoto said that there is a big project that needs to be researched by the brothers, and the guys from the other four villages will teleport over immediately.

Whether you can eat or not is one thing, so let's do some research first.

After this period of cultivation, the conditions of the Hidden Village improved a bit, and they began to be hungry again.

So far, none of Makoto's businesses has been small.

Generally speaking, every business he makes will make people regret why he wanted to be a ninja in the first place...

People will soon be in their places.

Everyone sat down in the conference building, ready to study Makoto's new toy.

It's just that Makoto noticed that there was no Yagura in this group, and Terumi Mei, who was still a diplomat, came.

Terumi Mei should be the busiest diplomat, because she has to run between Kirigakure and Konoha.

But recently, Terumi Mei seems to have been in Konoha, and has never go back...

"Where's Yagura? Why didn't this guy jump in front of me like a toad and mock me by the way?"

It was very rude to say this, but Terumi Mei was not angry. Because the Yondaime Mizukage and the Godaime Hokage these two bastards... are the enemies who know each other best.

They all know that each other is their own worst enemy.

But they also knew that only the birdman on the opposite side understood them.

T/N: 'birdman' refers to an annoying and stingy person

The world is always full of such dark humor.

"I haven't seen Mizukage-sama for a long time. He said that he has been studying a new type of ninjutsu recently, and he has some experience. He doesn't want to take care of outside affairs for the time being. –

"As for Konoha, let me maintain it first."

This is not what Yagura should have said.

Offshore balance is a tightrope walk. Everyone has not forgotten about Kirigakure's mediation of the Four Great Hidden Villages before. Kirigakure should be more careful.

Every time he saw Yagura before, he acted quite funny, wearing all kinds of strange uniforms, it was not a joke, but he was really quite cautious.

And as a ninja, it is important to study new ninjutsu. But as a Kage, the most important thing is to lead his Hidden Village to continue.

If Yagura hears that Makoto is alive again, he will definitely abandon everything and rush over, and then roll all over the floor, he must join in.

It is impossible for him to rest assured that his subordinates will do this kind of thing.

And... the last time they agreed on sucrose, after Yagura sent the map, there was nothing to say.

He said he was going to launch an awesome attack on him, but there was no news.

It's not like his style.

Seriously, the two haven't seen each other since the Miso War.

It's not that Mizukage never issued other orders, or even made public appearances, but he really never met Makoto in person.

He always feel that Yagura is avoiding him.

So... is that you, Obito?

Apart from Obito, Makoto couldn't think of any other reason.

After all, Obito really doesn't know how to run a business. Makoto told him that he wanted to cooperate with Cane Sugar. He didn't know what Makoto was planning to do, let alone haggling. The longer we get along, the more flaws we get, so there is a high probability that he will give up .

Makoto is also a well-known genjutsu master, so it's normal that he doesn't want to meet him.

If it is like this…

Makoto's eyes fluctuated for a moment, then he laughed, and talked about something else with Terumi Mei who was also worried.

No, it's better to take a closer look.

This kind of thing is no joke.

Maybe, Yagura really has the inspiration to come up with a super awesome technique. After all, he is a Kage-level ninja, and he is still a perfect Jinchuuriki... It is better to observe first, it will be safer...

Not long after, the greetings ended.

Makoto sent a summary of his plan to everyone.

– This group of bastards are absolutely impatient to read all of Makoto's proposals. Anyway, Makoto is famous for his trustworthiness in this regard, so these guys only read the summary now.

"I don't know if you are interested in expanding your business. –

"What about being a small grain merchant?"
