Chapter 5: Summoned (Six Years Old, Closer To Seven)

First Person PoV)

After the traditional meeting we had, with my future team members, I immediately made them follow me to the district area where the Engineering Unit Team and Vū are resting. I payed no heed of the glares they've sent in my way after finding out that they'd be working again just as after they had finished all of the civilians orders.

I should raise the salary in order for them to not slack off from work. No, no, nope, then my profit would decrease. Then how about hiring more people? Then the salary would be ten-thousand Ryo per month with the eight-hundred ninety-thousand Ryo I've earned.

But with the team working to modify the Akamichi district.

Kekekekekekekekekekeke!

....

(Third Person PoV)

People around the street turned to look and see where the sinister laugh come from. But what surprised them most was that it came from a little boy no older than six!

'Ignore him. Ignore him. Ignore him.....'

'Please don't notice me. Please don't notice me.....'

'Did this batshit child have gone crazy....'

Were the thoughts the people around Tobias' had.

...

It was suppose to be a perfect morning. The perfect morning where the Engineering Unit Team are still working to modify the Akamichi district and apply the ondol. The perfect morning for Tobiad to eat, train, shit and sleep.

'But why didn't I even took account that a situation like this would occur?!' He though, rather panickingly, 'I got too excited from the success my business has brought me that I even forgot about the 'High-Ups'!' Tobias hid his clenched teeth beind a delightful grin, forehead and temples profusely continue to bids sweats as thoug hhe had already felt of how wet he is from the collar of his shirt.

'Fuckkkkkk! If I get too involved with the 'High-Ups', then the comfortable jobless life is a bye-bye for me!'

"Hokage-sama orders for Yamanaka Tobias and his guard to immidiately head over the Hokage Office!" An ANBU member cried out.

'I should've erased my tracks!' Tobias mourned, crocodile tears flowing out of his eyes as he bit his lip while grinning. 'What the fuck should I do?! If the Hokage summoned for my presence, no doubt that the war hawk and those two fools will be there too, fuck! Should I pretend to be dumb... no, fuck that, my head will be sent flying before I could even utter the word 'money'!'

Seeing his master still hasn't said anything, Vū spoke, in behalf of Tobias, "We understand, we shall get onto it."

The ANBU nodded, before they use the Body Flicker Jutsu.

"You look like someone who just recieve an execution penalty," Vū remarked his observations.

"Yeah..." Tobias uttered, helplessly exhausted, "You... got.... good eyes..."

"Your reaction wasn't what I expected."

'This piece of shite!'

"Then, what did you think what my reaction would be?!"

"I thought you'd be happy, with the thought of how much you could 'suck off money' from Hokage-sama."

Tobias stayed silent. Vū, who wasn't used to Tobias silent treatment, didn't bother him any longer.

But what he didn't know, was what Tobias was thinking.

'I have limited information about the future, if I used the information correctly. Then I'd the situation would be my advantage! Vū is— suprisingly— correct! If it's like this! Let's just take it all out!'

Tobias thought, grinning, his eyes glinting with mischief.

...

(Third Person PoV Ending)

(First Person PoV) [Inserting Tobias]

....

"Yamanaka Tobias and Yamanaka Vū, raise your heads. There's no need to show that 'much' courtesy towards an old man like me." A voice that I'm familiar with said humbly.

Simultaneously, we raise our head to the Hokage and the Three Elders of Konoha.

"Nonsense Hiruzen, you're the Leader of the Village. The citizens and shinobis under the Village are obliged to show courtesy towards you, even if you are an old man." an old woman who has her hair is pulled back in a twin bun locked by a traditional Japanese hair pin with two pearls dangling off the side. I presume correctly that this old hag must be Utatane Koharu.

"Contrary to what you said old hag, you should speak for yourself," was what I wanted to say at her wrinkled face but held back unless I'd be wishing for an immediate death wish.

"As Koharu said," An old man possessing a hair, a beard, and green glasses as well as a frown, remarked in an authoritative tone, expressing his agreement to the old hag.

"Let's not waste any time any longer and discuss the main point here."

I mentally let out a distasteful groan. In front of me, other than the three that I've mention thus far, is none other than the infamous Old War Hawk. It wasn't Danzo's official nickname in this world but because of the meaning behind the nickname— that being someone who favors war or continuing to escalate an existing conflict as opposed to other solutions—, Naruto fans began to refer Danzo as the Old War Hawk.

Wow.... I unintentionally got frightened for a moment just by listenting to their conversation. These old fogeys presence are no joke.... for now that is, until I've grown stronger.

"You summoned for us, Hokage-sama? Elders?"

"You?"

What the fuck is with that skepticism tone War Hawk?!

"I though that the person next to you was the Yamanaka Tobias."

This motherfucki—

"Yamanaka Vū was it? I can sense that you're very strong at such a young age, what do you say? Come and work under me. I'll make sure you shall not regret making this decision."

As expected of the War Hawk. To have recognize Vū's strength in just a single glance, the title 'Shinobi of Darkness' is really deserving to him. But still, how shameless can this fogey be to ask a servant that already have a master to work under him. But since Vū is already working for me, I have no intention of letting him go especially with his son, Fū, who'd become a dog to Danzō. I shuddered at the mere thought of Danzō using Vū against me in the future. That would be troublesome.

"I apologize, but I must decline. I already have a master to serve."

"Ye—"

"Danzō." The Hokage finally opened his mouth, calling out the War Hawk's name as a warning, I recognize.

At that moment, Danzō finally shut his mouth. The Hokage, turned at my way with an elderly innocent smile. Heh, should I sew his mouth in the future to prevent him making such shitty face?

"Tobias-kun,"

Who the fuck told you to add that fucking pedophile-like honorific?! And again these fogeys are pronouncing my name wrong!

"As you know, I'm the Hokage,"

I don't know if you're bragging or what-not-shit just get on with it!

"... and as such, it is my responsibility to look after the people of Konoha. What is this ondol that you've been selling and making for the past month? I heard that even the respective clans are looking for you to order some ondol."

This is a great opportunity to advertise ondol, and hopefully they'd order the Type B!

Kekekekekekekekekekeke

"Ondol is an underfloor heating that uses direct heat transfer from wood smoke to heat the underside of a thick masonry floor. There are two types of ondol that I'm currently selling; Type A is a separate building in the yard. Type B is in the form of remodeling the first floor of your existing house." I explained, "And of course, the payment depends on the measurements of the house."

'Why do I feel like I'm being advertise?' Is probably what the Sandaime thinking. How obvious.

"That is a useful creation you made," he remarked, touching his beard, "especially, now, that the winter is almost three months away." Sandaime chuckled, clearly amused about something that I am not interested at, "Then, Tobias-kun, I'd like to order an ondol for the entire Sarutobi Clan."

I look down, my blond hair hiding me from their view. I bit my lower lip in attempt to hold back a smile but I found myself failing to do so, my cheeks were stretched so high as all that chanted in my mind is: 'MONEYMONEYMONEYMONEYMONEYMONEY....'

I cleared my throat. There was one more thing I'd like to say before I'm dismissed.

"Hokage-sama, if I may, will you let me speak out my suggestions?"

"Oh, I'm intrigued, speak."

"Have you ever heard the term, 'All Roads Leads to Rome'?"

"...."

Of course you haven't, this term came from my planet.

"If possible, with your permission, I'm planning to make a road."

"A road? Why, what's wrong with the path that the village already has?" The old hag asked, these fogeys really like butting in, huh?

"Well, Elder-sama. A road is important. Do you know the disadvantage a village with no road has?"

"I'm not really sure."

"It's the traffic, traffic."

Amidst to everyone's silence, I continued his words.

"Roadways serve a vital purpose in any country and nation. They allow people and automotive to traverse a diverse range of lands so that they can reach their given destination without any hindrance."

True to my word, in my past life, country sides suffer the most due to the lack of road. Cars were bumpy while driving on a path with no road, during raining days the mud would get sloppy, slippery, the cars wheels would get stuck between the muds, and et cetera, et cetera.

"Hmm, that is indeed a great suggestion. But how much would it cost?"

I hid my grin, seems that the old man knows the ways about the business world, huh?

"It'd depend on the distance."

"Hmmm," Sandaime thought for a moment, "While your suggestion is good, but I'm afraid we'd have to postpone such marvelous idea you have. The winder is already coming, and I'm afraid the financial would be focused on the manpower and the civilians."

"No worries, I understand. When shall I get started to modify the ondol at your district?"

"As soon as you've finish with Akamichi's."

"If it's all, may I?"

"You're dismissed."
