Chapter 7: Did my female assistant she was actually poached?

The ninjas can't save Uchiha! But having children can! 

Sasuke's eyes were filled with fanaticism, and his voice was full of Uchiha's unique paranoia. 

Anyone who saw Sasuke like this, regardless of the clan emblem behind him and the Uchihas' unique Sharingan, could clearly see that he was a pure-blooded Uchiha. 

The Third Hokage opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a while. 

Natsuo coughed. 

"Lord Third Hokage, the revival of the clan by the former clan leader Fugaku was hindered halfway, and now the clan is about to disappear. The clan is exhausted, and this is indeed a critical moment for the survival". 

"However, our Uchiha clan is a great family with great ambitions. We will not relent internally. Today, we want to revive the glory of our ancestors and have many decedents to strengthen our clan". 

Natsuo rambled on, and then added a sentence in response to Sasuke's words. 

"If the woman has a special bloodline limit, our Uchiha can offer more money." 

"Cough, cough." 

The Third Hokage coughed twice and said with a black line on his forehead, "Natsuo, I understand your desire to revive the Uchiha. But as a ninja clan, you should not consider restoring the reputation of the Uchiha clan and making the Uchiha name resonate in the entire ninja world". 

The Third Hokage tried to persuade Natsuo to follow the path he had originally imagined for Sasuke. 

However, Natsuo didn't hesitate and said, "No, Lord Third Hokage, I am well aware of my own talent. Even if it means seeking revenge for our clan, we may have to rely on Sasuke's growth." 

"The only thing I can do is to continue the Uchiha bloodline. Before that, everything else is meaningless." 

"Please allow our Uchiha clan to issue missions and strengthen our bloodline." 

"..." 

He remained silent for a long time, and finally sighed softly, "Are you sure you want to do this?" 

"By using this method to strengthen the clan, your reputation will be completely ruined." 

At Sasuke's age, he obviously wouldn't be the target of "mission execution." So, it could only be Natsuo who would take on this role. 

The mighty Uchiha, once known as the strongest clan in the ninja world, now had a clan leader who could only be a stud? 

"Compared to my personal reputation, the clan is more important!" Natsuo said without hesitation. 

"Well then, as you wish." 

"Thank you, Lord Hokage." 

... 

Natsuo, Sasuke, and the others left the Hokage Building. 

Sarutobi Hiruzen watched their figures and sighed softly. 

"It's a pity. Judging from the looks of it, Natsuo doesn't plan to go out on missions anymore". 

The Uchiha clan's inheritance was quite substantial. As long as Natsuo, the only adult Uchiha, had a little accident while going out, Konoha would have a way to gradually take control of those inheritances. 

In fact, if it weren't for the aftermath of the Uchiha clan's extermination not yet dissipating, would be worried about other major clans having ideas. 

Perhaps Natsuo would have been assassinated in the village long ago! 

"But it's fine." 

The Uchiha clan is growing stronger, which is beneficial for Konoha. 

The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is well aware that the Uchiha used to be a major enemy of Konoha. However, now that only a few Uchiha members remain, they are the most reliable Uchiha. 

As long as they are further indoctrinated, the future Uchiha clan members can be completely controlled. 

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen is making an effort to suppress his greed and not look at the Uchiha clan's "price list" on the table. 

Damn it! The Uchiha clan is really wealthy! 

Even the lowest-ranked Chūnin can use this mission to extract a reward of ten million ryō from the Uchiha clan, along with a powerful B-rank ninjutsu. 

From "working hard" to getting pregnant, and then going through postpartum recovery. Assuming this "mission" requires a year of "work," it's equivalent to a Chūnin earning ten million ryō per year! 

Ten million ryō... 

Even the lowest-ranked S-rank mission requires about a month of work for an elite Jōnin team, but the reward is only one million Ryo! And it has to be divided among the team members! 

By this calculation, it's almost equivalent to a Chūnin continuously completing mid-level S-rank missions throughout the year. Not to mention the additional rewards of valuable B-rank advanced ninjutsu! 

Moreover, the prices for Jōnin and Kage-level female ninjas have doubled, and the rewards are astonishing! 

Damn it, after all these calculations, Sarutobi Hiruzen is even considering arranging some female ninjas from the Sarutobi clan. 

"Cough, cough!" 

The Third Hokage coughed, interrupting his train of thought, and waved his hand at the female assistant next to him. 

"Junko, put this mission quote on the mission list." 

However, the female assistant seemed absent-minded and dazed. 

"Junko? Junko? Junko!" 

The Third Hokage raised his voice, and the female assistant, Junko, suddenly snapped out of it. 

"Ah! Yes, Third Hokage-sama!" 

She quickly started working, and after a while, she casually said, "By the way, Third Hokage-sama, the Jōnin exams for this year are about to begin. When should we report the Jōnin promotion exams?" 

"Oh? Do you want to participate in the exams?" The Third Hokage smiled and felt that he should encourage his ambitious subordinate. "It should be in three months. If you want to participate, you need to prepare well—" 

"Ah, it's that far away." Junko looked disappointed. "It seems like I can only take missions as a Chūnin. Otherwise, by the time three months pass, those other bitches will have already taken all the missions." 

"Forget it, even if the price is a little lower than that of Jōnin, I'll just take them first." 

Then she swayed her hips and walked off in high heels to post the mission report. 

The Third Hokage looked bewildered at Junko's retreating figure. From bewilderment to embarrassment, and then from embarrassment to disbelief. 

"My female assistant, she was actually poached by the Uchiha?"
