I sell sweets in Konoha

She had never eaten sweet potatoes, this kind of cereal, but most of the time it was raw.This is a very easy-to-obtain food, and you can steal it from other people's fields when you are in the Country of Fields.

Raw sweet potatoes are crisp, juicy and sweet.

I haven't eaten the roasted ones very much, because I didn't have the conditions when I stole them. It's already great to get this thing.Just eat first to fill your stomach.

Who knows if there will be someone who is as eager to grab you in the next second.

I don’t have time to bake it, and I might feel a little nauseous if I eat too much.

After following Orochimaru, only when he became an elite did his life change.

But Orochimaru...

I have never eaten with them around the fire like today.

Tayuya took a bite of the sweet potato, which burned his mouth but was warm.When you swallow it, you feel like a warm current flowing from your mouth to your stomach, and from your stomach to your heart.

This is warmth, a warmth that seems a little special.

She raised her head and looked at the fifth-generation Hokage who was wearing simple clothes and squatting on the bench with them eating roasted sweet potatoes without any pretensions.

In my heart...

It has a little more indescribable taste.

She was laughing, and Orochimaru liked to laugh too.In other words, Orochimaru's pale face always had a smile on it, but the smile on Orochimaru's face made people feel hairy.

Whether he successfully completed the mission or successfully became an elite, Orochimaru's face would always have that hair-raising smile on his face.

But on the face of the Fifth Hokage, I don't know why.

Tayuya always felt that he seemed to see more sincerity and kindness.

She had imagined countless scenarios of meeting the Fifth Hokage, including all the most humiliating ways.

But I never expected that it would be in this most unexpected way.

She had long heard that the fifth Hokage's best and most terrifying thing was not her own strength, but that she would make people do things for her willingly.

Maybe now Tayuya finally understands a little bit.

Why is this...

Chapter 4 We are all good kids

Konoha Village, this village has experienced the baptism of war.

It may feel dilapidated, but new sprouts have grown.Under the trauma of the war, Konoha Village quickly embarked on a new path as if it had shed its heavy burden.

The scars left over from the war can still be seen everywhere, but busy construction sites are also everywhere.

Everywhere you look you can see places being renovated or demolished.

New buildings, new commercial blocks, and flatter cement-hardened roads have gradually made Konoha Village look like those big cities in previous lives.

For Tayuya, she has no way to understand what past lives are, and of course she doesn't know about past lives.

The only thing she could compare to was this life.

What she can know is that Konoha is really wealthy, and cement is a very precious strategic material even in Sunagakure Village, let alone Oto Ninja Village.

But in Konoha Village, cement is used to pave roads.

Not just cement, but also asphalt, floor tiles specially made for paving roads.Just a section of the road already shows Konoha's wealth!

And this is not just a short way to make some money.

This is how all the roads in the entire Konoha Village are paved.

Except for necessary green belts and parks, all remaining roads have been greened.

Tayuya didn't know why he had to do this, but the only intuitive feeling was that all this made the road easier.The roads will not become muddy due to rainfall after a rainy day.

At least from this point of view, this kind of road is still very useful.

And the rest of the place.

For Tayuya, who came to Konoha Village and had no mission for the time being. As long as he pretended to be like an ordinary person, it was as if he had entered another world.

For her, she discovered for the first time that the world was not just full of fighting and killing.

There's more, more, more weird stuff.

Interesting, bizarre, beautiful, even delicious.

The prosperity of Konoha Village is not only the business travel that can be seen on the surface, but also the variety of commodities.As long as your wallet is fat enough, you can always find a place to help it lose weight.

Just like Tayuya who broke into the bustling metropolis from a countryside.

For the first time, she realized that she, who was once considered a rich woman in the Oto Ninja Village, could only drool while clutching her withered purse and looking at the items in the store.

This Konoha Village...

It’s really much better than the Sound Ninja Village!

There are simply too many temptations.

"Huh? You seem to be... Tayuya, right?"

Tayuya suddenly heard a slightly familiar voice behind her. She immediately turned around and recognized the person standing behind her.

"Godai-sama?!"

Tayuya looked at Junko.

This time, he did not wear the weird and rustic clothes that he wore during the first formal meeting, but instead wore a very ordinary kimono.

She didn't have any weapons on her, and she didn't look like a female ninja at all.

On the contrary, he is more like an ordinary resident.

Easy-going, no airs and very down-to-earth.

"Going out for shopping?" Junko asked with a bit of interest: "How is it? Konoha is very prosperous now, right?"

"Hmm..." Tayuya quickly replied: "Yes...yes, it looks great..."

It's really great. As long as you have money, you can't find anything picky about Konoha Village.If you really want to find something picky about it, then the only shortcoming left is 'I don't have money'.

The salary Orochimaru gave him had no place to spend it in Oto-nin Village, and it was the same here.

The difference is that there is really no place to spend flowers, and we really don’t dare to spend them here.

Tayuya strolled around casually, not daring to buy anything.With my little wages, I can only afford a few good meals in Konoha Village, let alone beautiful clothes and skin care and beauty products that girls like.

She had nothing left but greed.

"Hahaha~" Junko laughed. She could see that Tayuya seemed to be embarrassed and said, "Stop hiding it."

"Your boss didn't teach you how to 'talk to people and talk to ghosts.'"

"Your unwillingness and embarrassment are already written on your face."

It's really written on his face.

For Orochimaru...

"Why do you want us to betray BOSS?" Tayuya thought carefully and said, "If we betray BOSS, will you really trust us?"

"Loyalty from a traitor shouldn't be so easy to be trusted, right?"

Tayuya couldn't figure out why the Hokage was trying to win over people when there was a whole village of people who were hiding their spies everywhere.

Or threaten them through some means to make them choose to betray?

A person who will betray...

Is it really worthy of trust?

Tayuya couldn't figure this out.

"Betrayal?" Junko said with a straight face, "I think you are thinking too much. I don't need betrayers, and I don't need your loyalty, and I didn't expect you to be loyal to me."

"Then what do you want to do?" Tayuya always felt that he must figure this out.

If she can't figure out this problem, no matter what she does, she won't be able to do it with full concentration and peace of mind.

"You seem to have made a mistake." Junko shrugged and said, "I'm not your boss, so please don't compare him and me at the same height and position."

"There's no comparison."

"Are you nobler than him? Or are you more moral than him?" Tayuya asked.

noble?Perhaps it is true that the Uchiha and Senju bloodlines are still the granddaughters of daimyo.Except for the fact that his early years were not smooth, it was almost destined after he was born into a famous family.

But Orochimaru is just a civilian.

Maybe his bloodline and status are indeed higher than Orochimaru's, but his morals are not necessarily higher, right?

"First, I'm not noble, and second, I don't regard myself as a moral benchmark." Junko shook her head and retorted: "To some extent, I'm just lucky. In addition, some of the things I did behind the scenes were... He has more tricks than Orochimaru."

"Haha..." Tayuya laughed, not daring to show it fully.

This look that doesn't look like a smile directly shows that she doesn't believe it!

"Let's put it this way." Junko shrugged and said: "From some perspective, I can be regarded as a person who betrayed his own class. If I am willing, I can monopolize many industries and make them big, and then rest on the golden mountain. Live life.”

"The money I have earned can burn [-] yuan every minute since the Age of Mythology, and I can still burn it today!"

Junko fully has this confidence in the food industry.

Don't underestimate this industry. Although single food can be purchased very cheaply, the profit is also very low.But if it becomes an industry and scale, the benefits will be completely terrifying.

Because it is impossible for people not to eat!

This is just needed!

Junko doesn't just make snacks. She has production techniques and also knows the uses of some plants that have not yet been developed in the ninja world.And he is also the first person in the entire ninja world who is willing to invest in cultivating seeds.

If Junko is really willing to create a monopoly, then this sentence is definitely not a joke.

"But I don't need to do this, not because I am so noble." Junko shook her head and said, "But because of something else."

"What else?" Tayuya asked.

She knew that the Fifth Hokage in front of her was definitely not telling a joke, she was definitely the kind of person who could do what she said.

"Because of faith." Junko said sincerely: "This is where Orochimaru and I are different. I don't know what means Orochimaru uses to control you, and I don't want to use any means to control you."

"For me, and for Konoha in my opinion." Junko looked at the street and said seriously: "The first generation's idea was to build this place into a paradise for ninjas."

"He may have succeeded, but only half of it. It's different for me."

"I want to build a better home, not just Konoha."

"I've seen war, I've seen hunger, I've seen a lot of people displaced." Junko said, "I hope I can create a better world."

"I know this may be difficult and there is a long way to go. But I know what I have to do and how to do it."

“I’m going through all the obstacles on this road, and I believe there are many similar people around me walking alongside me.”

"So I believe that if you are willing to fight with me, there is no distinction between us."

"You and I are both comrades walking on the same path, with the same beliefs and goals."

"Maybe one day in the future you can't go on this road anymore and have to leave."

"Let's go then."

"I welcome you when you come. If we work together to create a better world, then we are comrades."

"If you don't like it and choose to stand aside and watch the joke, then just watch it from the sidelines."

"I don't say anything."

"But if you want to become our enemy, not only give up your faith but also create obstacles for us, then you are an enemy and we will crush you mercilessly."

"Just like Orochimaru." Junko said, "So I don't want your personal loyalty and admiration for me."

"If you are willing to be our comrade, you may not necessarily be on the same front, but we will work equally hard."

"Help each other, support each other, and move forward together on this road that is destined to be full of thorns."

When we move forward together, we are not masters and servants, there is no superiority or inferiority, there is only equality and comradeship.

Junko looked into Tayuya's eyes, and she noticed the confusion in this young girl's eyes.
