Chapter 93

「！@#￥%……&……%￥」

In the laboratory, Bai Shi endured the gibberish of General Tu, helping him reattach his head.

He was probably trying to express his joy at meeting his cute little sister for the first time.

Once his head was reattached, he immediately started dancing around.

It was a truly heartwarming scene.

Bai Shi felt deeply gratified, this was what a family should feel like.

On the other side, the Shadow Girl seemed unsure how to face this brother with a very peculiar body and appearance. Her body turned into a pure black shadow, spreading flat on the ground, and like an arrow, rushed into Bai Shi's shadow, disappearing without a trace.

「￥*&……%￥%……&」

Seeing the Shadow Girl disappear, General Tu started gibbering again. Even Bai Shi, the creator, had no idea what he was trying to express.

"Alright, she's your sister, and she was just born today, so she doesn't understand much yet. You're already two years old, so forgive her this time."

Bai Shi patted General Tu's head, urging him to be more magnanimous.

「￥&*%￥#￥%……」

General Tu placed a document on the ground, left this message, and immediately burrowed into the earth and disappeared.

"Really, none of you give me a moment's peace."

Bai Shi just complained, vowing to learn from this experience next time.

He picked up the document left by General Tu, shaking off the minimal dust on it.

This was recent information about the Ghost Country Pharmaceutical Company.

Some time had passed, and the Aizuwakamatsu Pharmaceutical Technology Company's business activities had also started to run smoothly.

The drugs produced and sold by Aizuwakamatsu Pharmaceutical Company were all new drugs not yet circulating in the current market, mainly cold medicine, fever reducers, stomach medicine, and various other drugs beneficial to human health recovery. After testing, their efficacy was better than the various drugs on the market.

Currently, the main export targets were nearby countries such as the Snow Country, the Ghost Country, and the Bear Country, while the five major countries were mainly the Wind Country and the Earth Country.

Because the Ghost Country was too far from the Fire Country, in the near future, it would not flood the Fire Country's pharmaceutical market on a large scale.

Of course, if Fire Country merchants were willing to act as agents, the profitable business company would not turn them away.

Bai Shi believed that the person in charge there, Kato, would make a reasonable judgment. Otherwise, he would have to replace him with a more capable subordinate to manage the company's affairs.

During the initial accumulation period of the organization, ample funds were the most crucial element.

Economics determines politics, and politics influences military affairs.

Money is the primary form of economic expression.

Only then can economics determine the superstructure, feeding back to an organization, feeding back to a country.

To achieve prosperity and development, the economy is the foundation of all foundations.

Currently, the organization's manpower was absolutely sufficient, whether it was researchers, staff, or armed personnel for protection, all had completed the first stage of formation.

Once the pharmaceutical company had accumulated a large sum of money and established a good reputation, they would recruit personnel in various countries to further expand the workforce.

The organization would remain hidden, while the company would attract attention in the open.

Otherwise, if they always acted in the shadows, the organization's scale would not undergo a qualitative transformation.

Therefore, the Ghost Country's neutral status could provide significant convenience.

This was also the win-win cooperation plan Bai Shi and the Miro Nymph were preparing to implement.

Bai Shi had long been in spiritual communication with the Nymph.

After dinner, it was already two hours after Bai Shi had finished his shift at the ninja school.

He was about to head to the underground laboratory when, within his perception range, two familiar chakra reactions appeared.

He walked toward the front yard and indeed saw a boy and a girl at the gate, both not very old, still of the age to attend the ninja school.

The boy had his hands behind his head, wearing a protective visor, and was looking to the side with a disdainful expression.

"Senior Bai Shi, I'm sorry for disturbing you so late," the girl said, bowing politely to Bai Shi.

"No problem, but what brings you here so late, Nara-san?"

This girl was a very diligent student in the medical ninja experimental class at the school, her name was Nara Rin.

When Bai Shi first served as an assistant in the experimental class, she had shown a model student's attitude of diligence and eagerness to learn.

She had a very outstanding talent in the medical field and could be cultivated as an elite medical ninja in the future.

Among all the students in the experimental class, Bai Shi had the deepest impression of her.

"The content that Tsunade-sensei taught this afternoon was a bit hard to understand. I went to the library to look up information but couldn't solve it. Can I ask Senior Bai Shi for help?"

The girl's face showed a diligent and eager-to-learn expression, clearly very passionate about medical ninjutsu and aspiring to become an excellent medical ninja in the future.

Bai Shi thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "I see, then Nara-san, please come in. I don't have anything important to do right now."

"I am truly grateful, Senior Bai Shi."

Rin's face showed a pure and innocent smile.

"It's nothing, it's your diligence and eagerness to learn that moved me. You know, being a medical ninja is a very challenging job for a girl, and you often face unpredictable dangers. By the way, didn't you go to Tsunade-sensei?"

"I did, but I found her drunk in a bar..."

Rin's face showed a hint of helplessness.

"..."

Bai Shi also helplessly shook his head but didn't say anything, as he was already used to it.

It was probably because of the deaths of Shino and Kato that had hit her hard.

Over the years, she had been drunk in bars countless times.

Fortunately, she never slacked off during class, never being late or leaving early, and was responsible to the students in the experimental class.

Bai Shi led the boy and girl inside, turned to the boy, and asked, "Why are you coming in too?"

"Of course, to guard against you making any moves on Rin."

The boy said this without any restraint, not even trying to hide it.

"You have a real talent for comedy, Uchiha Obito. You might have a better future as an entertainer than a ninja."

"I don't want to be called a womanizer by someone like you, it's embarrassing."

Obito still had his hands behind his head, walking with a carefree gait, and followed in with a very arrogant attitude.

"By the way, isn't Ruri-senpai not at home?"

Obito looked around the quiet surroundings and asked this question.

"Why do you ask?"

"I heard from the elders in my clan that Ruri-senpai resigned from the Security Team. She's a powerful jōnin, so why would she resign as the captain of a Security Team squad?"

Obito showed a curious expression.

"Maybe it's not a good fit for her. For her, going on missions outside is more suitable. After all, the Security Team often deals with trivial matters..."

"It's not trivial at all! I have great respect for the seniors who work in the Security Team; it's a source of pride for our Uchiha clan! Therefore, the Security Team, which helps everyone in the village, is not a trivial matter at all!"

Bai Shi glanced at him, saying nothing.

"Because if you can't handle such trivial matters, you can't become the Hokage!"

Obito's expression was unusually serious.

"Hokage?"

Bai Shi's expression became strange.

Rin laughed and said, "That's right, Senior Bai Shi. Obito's dream is to be recognized by everyone, become the Hokage, and help everyone in the village."

Hearing Rin say this, Bai Shi looked at Obito with an even stranger expression.

"What, what are you looking at me like that for?"

Obito took a cautious step back.

"Nothing, I'm just thinking about something unimportant."

Is this guy really an Uchiha?

Bai Shi had more than once doubted Obito's true identity. Although he knew many in the Uchiha clan hoped their clan members would become Hokage.

But that was driven by extremely strong personal desires or to serve the clan's politics, more like an obsession.

In Bai Shi's eyes, Obito was just a child who saw the Hokage as a pure dream and wanted to achieve it.

Is there such an interesting guy in the Uchiha clan?

Bai Shi felt a sense of anticipation for the first time for this Uchiha boy, known as a 'dead last' in the ninja school.

This guy's future might be very interesting.

"But Obito is very hardworking and kind, often helping old ladies in the street who are in trouble."

"Ah, well, it's not that big of a deal, Rin, you're exaggerating it too much."

Rin's praise made Obito's walking posture wobble, and he almost tripped on the flat ground.

In a quiet room, Bai Shi turned on the light, had the two sit down, and then went to prepare some sweets and tea to entertain them.

Although he came in to be a bodyguard, seeing Rin seriously asking Bai Shi about medical knowledge and entering a learning state, Obito didn't want to disturb her, as he wasn't particularly knowledgeable about medical ninjutsu.

Seeing Rin so earnestly seeking knowledge, and the 'womanizer' calmly and composedly answering her various questions, Obito thought this 'womanizer' did have some skills.

At least in medical ninjutsu.

Around ten o'clock at night, the private tutoring session ended.

"Senior Bai Shi, thank you for tonight."

"No problem, you're welcome to come anytime, and I'll do my best to help you with any questions I can answer."

Bai Shi smiled slightly, watching Rin leave.

Obito followed her, although he was already starting to doze off, he insisted on seeing her home to feel at ease.

Seeing this, Bai Shi was even more convinced that Uchiha Obito... was definitely an Uchiha with a brain problem.

The sudden, unimaginable physical pressure on his body woke Bai Shi up immediately.

It was another sunny morning.

But compared to the bright and warm sunlight, the plump, full-bodied object that appeared in front of him was even more irresistibly charming.

Not to exaggerate, but compared to girls of the same age, it was already quite remarkable.

For example, Ruri, whose physique was modest and low-key, unlike her formidable strength.

So, seeing such a vibrant and attractive sight,

Bai Shi could easily imagine, even in the hot springs, how the water would float, and he could visualize the beautiful scene.

"Good morning, Bai Shi-kun."

The girl sitting astride on Bai Shi touched his nose with her white, tender fingers and greeted him very naturally.

"…What are you doing, Ayane?"

To be honest, the scene in front of him was a bit hard for Bai Shi to process.

"I read in a book recently that boys like to be woken up this way. Don't you like it, Bai Shi-kun? Or do you want me to wake you up in a different way?"

"Whatever, but it's best to avoid such strange books in the future."

Bai Shi made Ayane get off him.

No matter what, that alluring figure was a bit hard to resist just now.

He almost had a strong physiological reaction.

Just as Bai Shi was getting dressed, the Shadow Girl, dressed in black, walked in, holding a plate and gently placing it beside him.

"Father, Mother, I have prepared breakfast for you. Please enjoy it slowly."

"???"

"Thank you for your hard work, especially for preparing breakfast."

While Bai Shi was still trying to figure out what was going on, Ayane was already praising the Shadow Girl for being considerate.

Ayane turned to Bai Shi with a smile and said, "Bai Shi-kun, look how well-behaved our daughter is. This breakfast is specially prepared for the two of us. Let's eat together."

She emphasized the words "our daughter" with particular emphasis.

"…"

Bai Shi just wanted to know what had happened between this foolish daughter and Ayane while he was still asleep.
