Naruto, my uncle is going to be Hokage!

Chapter 99: Raikage: What? One thousand taels? All in!

The land of thunder.

Yunyin Village.

"Useless! A bunch of useless people! What's the use of you!"

There were sounds of violent smashing coming from the Thunder Shadow Room. Ma Buyi huddled in a corner, holding the documents, trembling.

During this period, Lord Raikage's mood has become increasingly unstable.

There have been several incidents like this one where people got angry over trivial matters.

As the secretary of the Raikage, she could only submit the relevant documents after the Raikage's anger subsided.

Perhaps he had vented enough, Raikage Ai finally sat down in the recliner. The Raikage room in front of him was already a mess.

"Lord Raikage... Konoha has sent Lord Killer Bee back to the village. Here are the relevant written documents."

"what?!"

The Raikage, who was still angry the last second, grabbed the document handed over by Ma Buyi and began to read it with ecstasy.

What was written above was the content of the notice that Konoha decided to release Killer Bee after receiving post-war compensation.

"Where is Bi now?"

"Master Kirabi, you should be almost at the village by now, right?"

As soon as Ma Buyi finished speaking, he saw a flash of light passing by his side with a whizzing sound. The moment his hair was lifted up, he heard a loud bang in his ears.

Turning around, he saw a huge gap in the wall of the Raikage Room.

"Lord Raikage, this year's finances are already close to a deficit."

Ma Buyi couldn't help but complain.

Repairing the walls and replacing damaged items in the Thunder Shadow Room will cost a considerable amount of money.

……

Outside Leiyin Village.

Ai looked around at the entrance of the village and finally saw the familiar figure he had been thinking about day and night.

"Compare!!!"

His eyes turned red, and Ai rushed over and hugged the figure tightly.

"Brother, don't use so much force. I can't bear it any more."

Kirabi, who was hugged tightly by him, couldn't breathe and his face turned red.

"B! You've lost weight. In the past, when I hugged you like this, you didn't react at all!"

Ai let go of Kirabi and looked him up and down.

The more he looked at her, the redder her eyes became.

"Brother, I'm lucky enough to be back. How can I ask for more?"

After being captured once, Kirabi's mentality has changed a lot at this moment.

It was only after the fight with Namikaze Mirai that he realized that there are always people better than you.

He fought one against two and calmly took on the two tailed beasts.

Release attacks in the air to easily defeat him.

When Kirabi thought of the huge metal pillar falling from the sky, he felt a pang of fear in his heart.

It was that move that severely damaged the Eight-Tails, and after he was freed from the tailed beast transformation, he was captured by Konoha.

"Brother, you spent a lot of money to redeem me, right?"

Kirabi's eyes turned red.

He knew the value of a Jinchūriki.

There is absolutely no way that the Hidden Cloud Village can get him back unless it pays a price that satisfies Konoha.

"Don't say that nonsense, big brother will welcome you!"

Ai grabbed Killer Bee's hand and dragged him into the Hidden Cloud Village.

……

The news of Killer Bee's return caused quite a stir in the Hidden Cloud Village.

Some people were happy that as the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer Bee meant something completely different to the village.

Some people were also sad that Killer Bee, the perfect Jinchūriki, was easily defeated by Namikaze Mirai.

Now that he has become the Hokage, who in the Hidden Cloud Village can suppress him?
This kind of worry is exactly what Ai is worried about.

After welcoming Killer Bee, he began to study the next strategy for the Hidden Cloud Village.

After the defeat in the last war, the morale of the Hidden Cloud Village has dropped significantly. A large number of post-war wounded in the village have not recovered, and the combat effectiveness has also declined.

Ai is now extremely regretful.

Why did you choose to start a war?

Just for a few messengers from the Hidden Cloud Village, the village was dragged into a passive situation.

The hatred in his heart for Namikaze's future was as strong as a flame.

The current situation of the Hidden Cloud Village is all due to him!
If he hadn't killed the envoys from the Hidden Cloud Village, if he hadn't joined the war, if he hadn't captured Bi... In the midst of such anger and unwillingness, with a whoosh, an Anbu appeared beside him.

"Lord Raikage, we have discovered a new type of medicine in the Land of Lightning. It is twice as effective as ordinary medicines."

A new drug that is twice as effective?

Ai was shocked.

The medical industry in the ninja world has always been underdeveloped.

Medicines are almost always just an aid to medical ninjas. Only in backward small ninja villages will they rely heavily on medicines.

If this new type of drug really comes out, it will probably cause quite a stir.

"This is it. Please have a look."

Anbu spread out his palm, and in his palm lay a glass medicine bottle as thick as a thumb, with the liquid in the bottle having a light blue luster.

Ai picked up the bottle of potion, observed it for a while, and used his fingers as a knife to cut his right arm.

"Lord Raikage, this?!"

Dark's pupils shrank slightly.

Ai ignored him, crushed the bottle mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

The moment the liquid goes down the throat, a cool feeling like mint arises spontaneously, and the whole body seems to warm up as the medicine is taken.

Ai stared intently at the wound on his arm. He felt a tingling sensation at the wound. The shallow wound showed signs of healing visibly to the naked eye.

This level is naturally incomparable to medical ninjutsu.

But as a medicine, it's pretty scary.

Medical ninjas are a scarce resource, and not all ninjas are eligible to use them, but as long as you have money, you can buy a bunch of medicines as backup!
"This drug works better when injected. If you take it orally, you'll lose about a quarter of its effectiveness."

Listening to the explanation of the Anbu, Ai's pupils suddenly shook.

“Where did this new drug come from?”

"It's a medical company called Umbrella Corporation. It has just been circulated on the market. According to investigations, we should be the first ninja village to come into contact with the new drug."

Ai listened to the ANBU's report.

My eyes gradually became hot.

Once this new drug circulates in the market in large quantities, it will inevitably cause a huge shock.

By then, all major ninja villages will compete to stockpile this medicine.

No one wanted to lose to other villages in the medical preparation competition.

As for this umbrella company...

There is no shortage of medical companies in the ninja world, and many companies have always wanted to develop new drugs. Umbrella Corporation should be one of them.

Ai did not doubt that the Umbrella Corporation was related to the five major ninja villages.

Among the five major ninja villages, none of them involve businesses.

It is also impossible to research new drugs without stockpiling them ourselves and then distributing them to the market.

What is the difference between this behavior and supporting other ninja villages?
The top priority is to purchase large quantities of this new drug!
“How much do new drugs cost?”

"One thousand taels a bottle."

"One thousand taels per bottle?"

Ai looked surprised.

"Is it too expensive?" A cold sweat broke out on the Anbu's forehead.

"No, it's too cheap!"

Ai's eyes were filled with greed: "It seems that this umbrella company is not clear about the value of this new drug, or because it has just been launched, the pricing is still in a vague stage."

In his eyes, this new drug is completely ahead of other drugs.

The price should be an exaggerated number.

One thousand taels, the price of an ordinary detonating talisman, in exchange for such a special medicine.

Well worth it!
"Pass the order down and collect the village funds immediately. I want to purchase a large amount of this new medicine."

Ai's eyes were burning.

"Lord Raikage, isn't this too reckless?"

The Anbu worried.

"What do you know! Now is the best time to stock up on this medicine. Once other ninja villages get the news, the price will not be the same anymore!"

He licked his dry lips, a greedy smile in his eyes.

"If we can purchase all the medicines at once, the overall strength of the Hidden Cloud Village will be improved. Then, we can take revenge on Konoha!"

Ai seemed to have seen it.

The scene where the Hidden Cloud Village, equipped with new medicines, defeats Konoha.

Sure enough, God is still on his side!

Ai's eyes were full of smiles.
