The esteemed Sannin, Orochimaru, personally involved in human trafficking?
Natsuo was shocked!
He took a deep breath and sneered, "Are you trying to seduce me with your beauty?"
"Am I the kind of person who can't resist temptation?"
The women all approached seductively.
"Lord Natsuo..."
"Lord Natsuo, your body is so strong."
"My lord, how do you feel?"
The soft touch occasionally transmitted through the movement of their bodies, and the pleasant musky scent filled his nose.
Am I the kind of person who can't resist temptation? Yes, I am. So please tempt me a few more times, sisters.
After all, Orochimaru has reached such a level, how can I not give him face?
Orochimaru chuckled lightly, "Natsuo-kun, don't worry, this is just my compensation and I also want to make a deal with you."
"What kind of deal?" Natsuo struggled to squeeze his face out from the pile of softness.
"It's human trafficking," Orochimaru chuckled, "I remember that the Uchiha clan is quite wealthy, and you have offered quite generous treatment to the kunoichis who marry into the Uchiha clan."
"To be honest, even I am a little envious of the rewards!"
He licked his lips lightly, a hint of greed flashing in his eyes.
Natsuo said, "Sorry, I'm a man and I'm only interested in women. I'm not interested in men, but thanks anyway."
Orochimaru: "..."
Hmm... Even I, the worthy Sannin, don't like men! Oh, wait, the body I'm using now seems to belong to a female ninja... but that's not important.
"I will use the kunoichis under my command in exchange for Natsuo-kun's financial support." Orochimaru didn't hide anything and said directly, "I can provide at least Jōnin-level female ninjas who are guaranteed to be physically healthy, have good looks, and are in their prime reproductive age."
"I don't need the Uchiha clan's ninjutsu."
"But in return, I hope to obtain a large amount of funds!"
Doing research requires a lot of money. In Natsuo's previous life, several countries invested billions in funds into research, but sometimes there was no progress at all.
Although Orochimaru himself is a top scientist who can ensure research results, the required funds cannot appear out of thin air.
And currently preparing for the establishment of Otogakure, although the village will generate some income in the later stages, it is clear that in the initial stage it requires a lot of investment.
He needs money! And the Uchiha happen to be wealthy! As for the price to pay...
With Orochimaru's abilities, isn't it easy to deceive a few small ninja clans' kunoichis?
Moreover, he can offer the ninjutsu that the ninjas need the most as compensation. This is a win-win situation!
He had thought about this before and wanted to accept the mission of 'bearing children for the rebirth of the Uchiha clan', the drawback was that it could only be done by Konoha ninjas.
In addition, the construction of Otogakure also requires manpower, so he temporarily put it aside.
However, now that Natsuo has come, we can make this deal.
Natsuo pondered for a moment.
The 'Jōnin' Orochimaru provided is probably the weakest kind of Jōnin from a small country. It is a disgrace to be a Jōnin in terms of ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu.
But they are still Jōnin!
Although the Uchiha clan has spent a lot of money, there are still very few Jōnin-level female ninja who have accepted the mission.
"We can discuss the details." Natsuo was tempted.
...
Three hours later.
Natsuo left Orochimaru's underground base with Ayako and two special Jōnin.. The two females special Jōnin were the goods for this transaction.
After looking at them, it seemed that the two of them did not resist the fate of being 'married' to him.
One of them couldn't help but steal glances at Natsuo's handsome face, with a hint of joy in her eyes. After all, Natsuo is a true tall, rich, and handsome man!
With a prestigious reputation, abundant wealth, strength equal to Orochimaru's, and this sunny and handsome face... How could kunoichis not be moved?
The group headed towards Konoha, but compared to Ayako's hurried escape before, it now felt more like a leisurely outing, with no rush and occasional stops to admire the scenery along the way.
Natsuo was not in a hurry to return to the village. The wooden clone he left there could temporarily take care of most things.
At the same time, he also contacted a Ninja Cat to let the Wood Clone prepare things in the village. After all, except for Ayako, who was originally a spy who had infiltrated Konoha, the remaining two did not have a Konoha ID.
All of this required the Wood Clone to make proper preparations in the village before they could return.
The group enjoyed their journey, exploring mountains and rivers.
When passing through the border between two countries, they suddenly discovered that both Kusagakure and Takigakure were at war.
Natsuo took the opportunity to observe for a while. During the last Great Ninja War, he hadn't even graduated from the ninja school yet.
He found war to be quite intriguing. The female ninjas, on the other hand, were much less curious than Natsuo.
The small ninja clans had experienced too much hardship and displacement.
That's why they were so delighted to marry into the Uchiha clan and become stable and wealthy housewives.
However, whether it was Natsuo or the female ninjas who had become part of the family in the past few days, they didn't feel surprised by the sudden outbreak of war between the two countries.
The ninja village system has only been around for a little over sixty years, and there have already been three Great Ninja Wars.
Roughly one war every twenty years.
And that's only the large-scale wars involving the five major ninja villages. The small-scale wars in the small ninja villages are too numerous to count.
However, as they continued to watch, Natsuo suddenly frowned.
"It seems that something is not right. The injured Kusagakure ninjas are recovering so quickly. Could it be..."
His eyes instantly lit up.
