Chapter 189. Profits
---
At this mont, in the underground cave, the White Zetsus, gathered together once again, glared at each other with ferocious expressions.
"Damn it! Let's just destroy this ninja world!"
"Destroy it! Destroy it!"
"They even bullied us in the ga!"
"And they released those hero gift packs to humiliate us! It's just too much!"
"Let's blow up the network!"
"But if we do that... won't the money we spent be wasted?"
As soon as the words were spoken, all the White Zetsus fell silent again.
Right.
They had spent money on this!
Wouldn't blowing it up be a huge loss?
"So what do we do?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the White Zetsus looked at each other again.
Not long after—
"Obviously... we should still destroy the ninja world, right?"
"..."
Black Zetsu's mouth twitched as he watched the White Zetsus circle back to the sa idea.
These useless idiots.
It's only been a day... and they're already done.
Embarrassing!
So embarrassing!
You're supposed to be weapons created by Mom!
How could you lose at a re ga?!
Even though not all the White Zetsus participated this ti, a loss is still a loss!
Moreover—
This ga chaos revealed a serious problem to him.
That is—
If they really gathered the Nine-Tails and started a war, perhaps these villages might actually unite.
At that ti, with just the White Zetsus... there's no way they could withstand the combined forces of the Five Great Ninja Villages!
[Indeed! We absolutely cannot be discovered!] Black Zetsu's eyes narrowed, and he reaffird his belief in continuing to lay low.
Watching the noisy White Zetsus, he sighed, feeling even more certain that he couldn't let these guys run loose right now.
If they got so angry that they strapped explosive tags to themselves and went to blow up the villages, and if sothing got exposed... it would be a disaster.
Too dangerous!
These White Zetsus have gone mad!
He shook his head in frustration, glancing at the lone Spiral White Zetsu, who had been isolated ever since Madara's death, quietly drawing poop by himself.
Suddenly, he realized...
This weirdo, who had gained self-awareness, was actually the most reliable one!
"Shut up!" Black Zetsu roared, glaring at the White Zetsus. "All of you, be quiet! What kind of behavior is this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the White Zetsus snapped out of it and looked at Black Zetsu expectantly.
"Let's do it, Black Zetsu!"
"Yeah! Yeah! We miss Kaguya-sama too!"
"Let's destroy this world and save Kaguya-sama!"
"Our blades are thirsty for action. Let's do it!"
"..."
Do it?
Do your damn job!
Black Zetsu roared again, and only when all the White Zetsus had quieted down did he speak with a dark expression. "Recently... how is that replacent chosen by Madara?"
"Uchiha Obito?"
"Nothing much! But the movie he made is pretty good!"
"Idiots! I'm asking about the darkness in his heart!"
"This..." The White Zetsus looked at each other again, hesitating for a mont before saying, "It's still... the sa as before!"
"..."
Black Zetsu choked, then let out a long sigh as he looked at the White Zetsus. "Keep investigating what he's been up to." He hesitated for a mont, then gritted his teeth. "If there's still no progress... we'll have to choose another representative."
This kind of life...
He, Black Zetsu—
Has had enough!
[Mom, I'm so tired!]
...
"Very well!" Minato said with a satisfied smile as he looked at Obito. "In that case, congratulations, Obito. You are now a mber of the Konoha Anbu."
As a teacher, seeing his student grow stronger and more capable filled him with pride.
"Later, I'll arrange for an Anbu ninja to take you to the Anbu base to complete the transfer procedures. Please wait a little longer."
"Thank you, Sensei!"
"This is all the result of your own hard work! I've seen the movie you made, and it's quite good, especially that awkward dance scene in the rain..." Minato sighed with emotion. "It seems you've moved on and can face your past now!"
"Keep won out of your heart, and your ninjutsu will ascend!"
"Haha! That's a bit of an exaggeration!" Minato chuckled awkwardly, looking at Obito's serious expression. "I'm sure Obito will et a woman who likes him too!"
"I don't need a woman!"
"...Alright! When love cos, you will know it!" Minato smiled wryly and shook his head, not saying more. After all, wasn't it the sa for him and Kushina?
When love cos, you just... understand!
After a mont of thought, Minato switched back to his teacherly tone and said with a smile, "Now, tell , is there anything else you need? As the Hokage, I must be fair and just, but as your teacher..." He blinked. "I might be able to secretly help my favorite student!"
"I..." Obito was montarily stunned, as if he had thought of sothing. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he took a deep breath, looking intently at Minato. With a serious expression, he suddenly blurted out, "Sensei! I want to be with Kakashi!"
As soon as the words were spoken—
"?!"
Minato's butt tightened.
He looked at Obito's serious face, his eyes filled with complexity.
[So... this is what you ant by not liking won?!]
This is...
What a sin!
...
Ti flew by.
A few days later, Pakura also left Konoha with the employees of the Yuto Group. It was believed that soon... the Land of Wind would also have internet access.
By now, a full month had passed.
It was finally ti for the box office settlent of [teor Konoha] at the end of the month.
To develop the film industry, anyone who produced a movie that passed the review process and t the requirents could have it screened at Yuto Cinemas. They could choose either a buyout or a profit-sharing model.
The buyout amount depended on the situation.
For profit-sharing... after deducting operating costs, the net profit would be split 50-50.
At the ti, the confident Danzo had chosen the profit-sharing model.
Now—
Yuto smiled as he looked at the director of teor Konoha, Shimura Danzo, and the assistant director, Sarutobi Hiruzen. "Congratulations! Congratulations! The Third Hokage-sama's skills remain undiminished! Danzo-sama is still in his pri! The two of you joining forces... who would have thought you'd create such a blockbuster that swept the ninja world! It even surpassed Uchiha Zha! Truly remarkable! This is a groundbreaking film!"
With that flattery, the Third Hokage and Danzo imdiately smiled with satisfaction.
"Hahaha! It was unexpected! We still fell a bit short! Just a bit!"
"Since that's the case, I won't waste any more ti. Let's get straight to business!"
"Good!"
This was even better!
They didn't want to waste ti either.
Right now... they just wanted to see the money!
"Suzune," Yuto called out, then took the docunts handed to him by his secretary. He flipped through them and began reading seriously.
"Over the past month..." He paused, waiting until the two n were eagerly rubbing their hands together. "After deducting operating costs, the total revenue is 310 million ryo."
As soon as he finished speaking—
The two n were montarily stunned, then a glint of gold flashed in their eyes. They stroked their beards and nodded calmly.
"Over 300 million in a month, not bad! Not bad!"
"Hmph! There are still so flaws. If I hadn't been short on funds, it could have been even better!"
"Danzo, given the constraints, this is already quite good! We'll have more money coming in the future."
"Fine, fine! It's just a few hundred million. With my worth, I don't even care about it!"
"Danzo!"
"Hiruzen!"
"..."
Yuto's mouth twitched as he watched the two n, who had been boasting, suddenly lock eyes with each other. He felt a pang of stomachache and quickly said, "According to the profit-sharing agreent, you'll receive 155 million ryo."
"???"
The two n were stunned again.
They did a quick ntal calculation. After deducting the production costs... although the equipnt costs were a bit high, they could be reused next ti, so it wasn't a big deal.
After subtracting Homura's and his own investnt, they still made over 70 million. That was indeed a lot.
Which business could make over 70 million in a month? Especially since it had only been released in the Land of Fire, the Land of Water, and the small Land of Rain. As more countries joined, the profits would only grow!
This deal... was worth it!
It's just... the profit-sharing ratio was a bit low, which stung a little!
However.
Since they had already signed the contract, they had no choice but to abide by it.
Danzo and Hiruzen sighed and were about to nod when suddenly—
Yuto silently pulled out a piece of paper and placed it on the table.
"???"
What's this?
A check?
The two n looked down in confusion, and then...
Their mouths twitched.
Written on the paper was:
[I, Shimura Danzo, borrowed money from Uchiha Yuto today...]
