Chapter 180 Competition Conditions

Although the Iwagakure Village was coveting the "Ninja Survival" project, they had to say that the proposal from the Ugetsu Shoten was more exciting to them.
"Ninja Survival" is certainly good, and the revenue and traffic it brings are also imaginable and objective.
But what Yu Yue gave them was a brand new project that was more long-term and extensive.
Especially since this would create a closer connection with the Ugetsu Store.
No matter how you look at it, the latter is more cost-effective.
"Ninja Survival" is just one of the projects of Yu Yue Store. Being a member of Miss Yu Yue's construction team means you can participate in all subsequent projects of Yu Yue Store that require venues.
So after an emergency meeting, the goal of the Iwagakure Village changed.
It would be great if we could get Ninja Survival together, but it doesn't matter if we can't. The most urgent task is to confirm the work of the construction team.
Therefore, the Iwagakure Village also carefully selected a group of people, all of whom were good at earth escape and had certain experience in construction.
Even if Miss Yu Yue asked them to perform a bare-handed cleaning show on the spot, they were not afraid.
However, I didn't expect that after arriving, before I even heard Miss Yu Yue's arrangements, I bumped into people from other ninja villages.
——Everyone thinks that the other party is here to steal their business.
How can this be possible?
However, before Ugetsu could say anything, Kakuzu came out and solved the problem smoothly.
Although I failed to convince Miss Yu Yue to hold an event to get sponsorship and advertising fees, so much manpower cannot be wasted.
"Since we are here, how can we not experience the corporate culture of Yuyue Store?"
"We are all ninjas and good partners of the Ugetsu Store. We never know when we will have new cooperation. Wouldn't it be better to adapt to it in advance and prepare for the future?"
This may not be very useful to the Kage or veteran jonin of each village, but it is very useful to young people who are very interested in Ugetsu Shop and the series of new things it brings, and are also interested in working for Ugetsu Shop.
It is very convincing.
That's right, they came here just for the matter of Yuyue Store. Instead of just standing here and looking at each other in disgust, they might as well do something.
Whether it is to let Miss Yu Yue see my sincerity and ability, or as this "Jiao" said, to adapt to the position in advance, it is a very good thing.
"Everyone present here is an elite from each village. I believe everyone can get started right away."
Seeing the young people's restlessness
Son, Kakuzu complimented him again 'inadvertently'.
Of course the focus is on 'each village'.
Kakuzu is very familiar with how arrogant and competitive young ninjas from different ninja villages are.
"Just tell me what to do."
“Yes, we can all do it!”
"It's definitely better than those people next door."
If we say that Yu Yue uses various mechanisms to trigger people's competitive spirit.
That corner is simply and directly pointed out.
'If you don't do it well, it means your village is inferior to others'.
So there is a saying that goes.
Only those in the industry know how to better exploit their peers.
Seeing the atmosphere among the young ninjas becoming heated, Kakuzu clapped his hands.
"Work is of course important, but Ugetsu Store won't let you work for nothing."
If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it grass.
Now it’s time to give the ‘grass’.
Including piece-rate charging and free cafeteria - this pleasantly surprised the young people who originally came here just to prove themselves or just wanted to experience in advance what it was like to work at the Ugetsu store.
——This is just like winning the lottery when going out to eat. It’s as happy as being able to eat two extra meals without spending any money.
We made money! We made a lot of money!
The young ninjas looked delighted.
There was also a glimmer of satisfaction in Kakuzu's eyes.
He makes a lot of money by attracting so many young and strong laborers just by charging normal piece-rate wages and providing a free canteen.
With just this little profit, we can hire so many ninja employees, making a lot of money.
——You know, for the same job, if you become a regular employee of Ugetsu Store, you will also be provided with accommodation, entertainment and a monthly project champion award.
Kakuzu stroked his chin.
I deeply feel that this can happen more often.
Or should he suggest to Ms. Ugetsuki that they extend the discussion time on the "Ninja Survival" project?
After all, if the time is extended by one more day, these people will have to work one more day.
So when the representatives of each village finally got around to it, they found that all the "support" from their own village was gone.
Where are the people?
I put these here, where are all those young and beautiful ninjas?
It was not until they finally caught a young ninja who had overslept and was late, and consulted him, that the team leaders found out what had happened.
"Master Jiao built
They suggested that we experience the corporate culture of Yuyue Store in advance, and were kind enough to let us have a trial job in advance. "
The captured young ninja told the whole story, and especially about the rotation option, he couldn't help but praise it highly.
"We get lunch every day, and we can rotate while working, choosing projects we are good at to intern on, and we are even paid."
The young ninja said excitedly.
Who doesn’t like to do something they are good at? That sense of accomplishment is so great.
It's a pity that a ninja's job requires all-round development. If he can't do a project to perfection, he must overcome all his 'weaknesses'.
How can there be such a good thing as just doing what you like?
"Master Jiao is so kind. The leaders of Yuyue Store are all Bodhisattvas!"
The representatives of each village who knew the true identity of 'Master Jiao' all showed indescribable expressions.
——Why do you call that character a "Bodhisattva"?
Is there something wrong with my ears, or have I accidentally fallen into the Sharingan's illusion?
That 'Kakuzu'... there's no way it can be related to the word 'Bodhisattva'.
I'm afraid you are dreaming.
Kakuzu, who values ​​money more than anything else, certainly cannot do charity.
Even if Ugetsu thought it was okay, Kakuzu wouldn't agree to give out a large amount of materials just to help them overcome their problems and become skilled.
That's a waste.
The reason why he allowed them to only do the work they liked and were best at was out of cost-effectiveness considerations.
After all, there are fewer mistakes, higher yields, and higher efficiency in projects that you are good at.
Anyway, he wasn't really going to let them stay.
Seeing his representative lost in thought, the young ninja ran away impatiently.
"I'm leaving first!"
He had already overslept because he stayed up late last night to compete with the people from the neighboring ninja village. If he didn't leave now, he would really be late!
Haha! I'm so exhausted, that guy must be in a bad condition.
Today he is full of energy and is determined to defeat his opponent and prove himself!
Village representative: “…”
Do you remember that you came here to 'listen to my arrangements'?
He looked at the young ninja's receding figure, and inexplicably felt a strange feeling of "throwing a meat bun at a dog".
...No, it must be an illusion.
Well, that must be it.
I'm just too tired.
"team leader……"
There were also ninjas who felt uneasy and tried to say something, but as soon as they opened their mouths, the representative man waved his hand.
"Let them be."
"It's a good thing to be able to prove my strength to Yuyue Store at this time."
If Miss Ugetsu could see that they were much stronger than the others, then that could be solved as part of their competitiveness.
The leading ninja thought optimistically.
As the host, Yu Yue would certainly not miss such news.
After hearing what Kakuzu had done, Ugetsu was left with only one word in his mind: "I am convinced."
"How should I put it? I feel like if there were a few more people like Kakuzu in the ninja world, the other professions would probably be swept away."
He originally thought that Ninja was already the "King of Rolls" and the "Model Worker".
But after seeing Kakuzu's performance, Ugetsu felt that he had underestimated the profession of ninja.
Consider also the rumors that Kakuzu is already in his seventies or eighties.
Normal people in their seventies and eighties are almost on the verge of retirement, even if they have not retired yet.
Where else can you find someone like Kakuzu who has enjoyed a second spring in his career and even has signs of surpassing his 'first spring'?
Especially considering his current strong and healthy condition, Yu Yue felt that it would not be a problem for him to struggle for another forty or fifty years.
"It's a good thing that Kakunoichi doesn't have the idea of ​​unifying the ninja."
She couldn't help but sigh.
"Otherwise, given his current level of self-discipline, I really don't know what will happen in a hundred years."
He has the ability, money and more importantly, enough time (life span)... It is really hard to imagine what such a person can achieve.
"That may not be the case."
Uchiha Shisui shook his head when he heard this.
"It's hard for a ninja to focus on just one thing for his entire life."
Family matters, village matters... There are so many choices and influences in a ninja's life.
"Even the first generation, who was known as the 'God of Ninja', could not escape this. It was not until quite late that Konoha Village was established."
The establishment of Konoha was a rather long process.
"That's a shame."
Although she often assigns ninjas to do this and that, and do various tasks.
But she also felt that with the ninja's experience and abilities, if she could continue to delve into one direction, she would be able to create more.
"If there was a ninja who could devote his entire life to one thing, the world might change because of it."
Yu Yue suddenly thought of some plot like 'seclusion for thirty years, shocking the world'.
It’s hard to say in modern society.
But in the world of ninjas, considering the power and execution of ninjas...she thinks it is quite feasible.
"Perhaps."
Uchiha Shisui said this, but he didn't agree in his heart.
...It's not that I disagree, I just simply think it's impossible.
At least in his cognition, a ninja who is bound by layers and always walking on a repetitive path cannot do such a thing.
The premise of "changing the world" is "change", which must be in a completely different direction from what we know.
However, before Miss Ugetsuki came, only one first-generation adult had done this in all these years.
The first generation creatively and exceptionally merged the originally independent ninja clans into a large "ninja village", so that they can now survive as a village and support each other.
For thousands of years, there has only been one 'Senju Hashirama'.
So Uchiha Shisui felt that even if there was a ninja who spent his entire life doing one thing.
Nor will it be able to shock or even subvert the world as Miss Yu Yue said.
——Of course, if it is Ms. Ugetsu’s order, that’s an exception.
Knock knock knock.
Just as the two were chatting casually, there was a knock on the door.
Ugetsu and Shisui tacitly stopped talking and went back to work.
For the "Ninja Survival" project, the five major ninja villages have prepared very sincere plans.
From venue support to manpower support, and even financial support - some of the ninja villages even brought in "noble support", indicating that on their side, from nobles to ninjas to civilians, all of them wholeheartedly support this new project of the Ugetsu Store.
Seeing someone taking the lead, the other ninja villages naturally refused to be outdone.
This is Miss Yu Yue's project, is there anyone who doesn't support it?
It is impossible for anyone to reject the new project of Yuyue Store, impossible!
Don't bring up these empty things that anyone can do.
"Ms. Ugetsu, please look at this map. These are the areas around the Iwagakure Village that we have found suitable for Ninja Survival."
Although I feel
Although the "Ninja Survival" project is not as important as the construction team, the Iwagakure Village has made full preparations to give it a try.
If it really happens, it would be a double happiness, right?
The representative of Iwagakure Village quickly unfolded a two-meter-long map.
On the map, there are several areas that have been circled in red in advance.
"Here, here, here and here."
The Iwagakure ninja focused on four of them.
"These four places are the places we chose based on the uninhabited island of the Hidden Mist Village."
The representative of the Iwagakure Village stole a glance at Ugetsu as he spoke, and when he saw her interested expression, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued.
"These four areas meet the requirements of being far away from human settlements, with complex terrain and vast uninhabited land around them."
Since it is a battle between ninjas, movement is the most basic thing.
Areas that are too close to cities or villages are not suitable.
Especially the poisonous smoke at the end.
Although the ninjas don't care, the poisonous smoke is still dangerous to ordinary people.
As for the rest.
Since it is an event site, there must be corresponding supporting facilities and roads, right?
In this way, there cannot be too many obstacles in the middle, or if there are obstacles, they must be those that are easy to solve.
Then there’s the venue.
If it's not complex enough, how can we show the different powers of the ninja?
The more difficult, challenging and dangerous the situation is, the more the ninjas' strength can be demonstrated.
This is also the conclusion reached by the think tank of Iwagakure Village after analyzing Ugetsu and several of her cases.
As one of the first ninja villages to come into contact with the Ugetsu Shop (at least earlier than the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Mist Village), and having suffered losses at the Hidden Sand Village (none of the intelligence analysis was correct ), the Hidden Iwagakure Village has put a lot of effort into the Ugetsu Shop.
Not only did we not miss any subsequent projects, but we also had dedicated people to conduct the analysis.
From the project itself to Miss Ugetsu's habits.
So in addition to the 'regular' support, they also prepared this map in advance.
“This is a canyon surrounded by mountains, and this is a riverbank with steep cliffs.”
"This is a rift valley... It is said that it was split open by immortals during a battle thousands of years ago."
He explained them one by one.
After saying this, he looked around proudly.
He is the representative of the ninja village.
It seems to mean, "We are the village that knows Miss Yu Yue best, what can you compare with us?"
Representatives from other ninja villages: "..."
Damn, this shameless person from Iwagakure.
They usually look honest and loyal, and they always say that everyone is a brother and they work together to make money.
A sneak attack at this time?
Too much, too much!
However, the murderous looks from the other ninja village representatives not only did not make the Iwagakure Village representative retreat in the slightest, but instead made him puff out his chest even more proudly.
We are all ninjas, so we should understand the principle of using deception in war, right?
It is your duty to perform your duties conscientiously at work, but if anyone is honest and has no calculation at this time.
That means the ninja was derelict in his duty and was stupid.
The Iwagakure ninja thought to himself.
You can't blame your brothers for being treacherous; it's because you are too weak.
But the ninjas from other ninja villages were not to be outdone.
Let’s not talk about the Hidden Mist Village for now - after all, they already have a venue for “Ninja Survival”.
The Sand Village and Konoha also have backup plans.
The former directly took out the ruins and the collapsed "fortress" from the Chunin Exam.
These are also the places that attracted countless attention during the Chunin Exams.
The Sand Village doesn't think this place is worse than the Mist Village or the uninhabited island in "Ninja Survival".
Konoha was not to be outdone.
They even proposed the well-known classic Valley of the End as a candidate.
He also said that as long as Miss Yu Yue needed it, they would immediately renovate the Valley of the End.
Apart from anything else, the fact that this was once the place where Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama had their final battle is enough to attract countless tourists.
Although there is no Internet in the Ninja World (there is no computer yet), the behavior of "punching in" has always existed. Especially places that are related to celebrities from all walks of life have always been "punching in holy places".
In fact, Konoha has received many tourists from the Valley of the End in the past.
If they are really cruel enough to use the 'Valley of the End' as the venue for 'Ninja Survival', the scale and flow of people may directly surpass the Hidden Mist Village.
When these words were spoken, representatives from each village felt a jolt in their hearts.
You, Konoha, are really giving away all your wealth.
Especially the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village.
They originally thought that their biggest enemy was the Hidden Rock Village - after all, if they really wanted to
Speaking of the connection with the Ugetsu Shop, the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Iwagakure Village are similar.
It's not as good as Konoha (headquarters) and the Sand Village which surrendered first, but it's closer than the Mist Village which has been stubborn and refused to cooperate.
Therefore, in the competition, the various preparations made by the Hidden Cloud Village are also intended to target the Hidden Iwagakure Village, treating them as imaginary enemies.
After all, according to their analysis, the Hidden Mist Village already has a venue, and the Hidden Sand Village and Konoha, as old partners of the Ugetsu Shoten, also enjoy considerable benefits.
Then even for the sake of balance, the most likely winners would be himself and the Iwagakure Village.
——This was especially true after the news spread that Ugetsu Store was looking for Iwagakure Village to discuss matters.
Judging from the look on the face of the representative of the Iwagakure Village, he obviously didn't expect that another "Cheng Yaojin" would show up at this time.
The pride on the face of the Konoha representative made the representatives of the other ninja villages itchy.
If it wasn't in front of Yu Yue, I would have wanted to put him in a sack and beat him up.
But even if the sack was not put on at this time, the grudge had already been recorded in the little notebook.
The representative of Konoha also felt that he had a sure victory.
After all, no matter how much preparation the other ninja villages have made, it is impossible for them to directly use a "tourist attraction" as the venue like Konoha did.
They definitely won!
However, at this time, the representative of the Hidden Cloud Village stood up.
"We have relics from thousands of years ago."
???
The others looked over.
"We have clues to the ruins left by the legendary 'Goddess of the Rabbit' - I believe that using such a place as the location for 'Ninja Survival' will better suit the needs of Ms. Ugetsu and the audience."
In addition to showcasing the strength of the ninjas from each village, Ninja Survival is also a project for people to watch and enjoy.
In this way, wouldn't the venue, which is already legendary, be more interesting and more in line with people's needs?
"We already have accurate clues. If Miss Yu Yue needs them, we can give them to her at any time."
He paused as he spoke.
"And it is said that there are still treasures and information from thousands of years ago left inside."
If it were in the past, the Hidden Cloud Village would definitely not make this information public.
After all, the wealth and information from thousands of years ago are both priceless treasures to ninjas.
There might even be some legendary "artifacts" among them.
Just like the round fan that Uchiha Madara once used, and the gourd used by the brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku, the most famous rebel ninjas in the Hidden Cloud Village in the past.
But now, in this era where there are no world-class wars.
These 'artifacts' are not worth nearly as much as they once were.
Compared to a "sacred artifact" that no one knows whether it really exists, the project in Yuyue Store is of course more important.
"real?"
Yu Yue was surprised.
These are relics from thousands of years ago. To some extent, they can be considered as historical sites, right?
Use it as the venue for "Ninja Survival"?
"The Ninja Survival Project requires fighting."
Yu Yue reminded again.
Although "Ninja Survival" has multiple restrictions, in theory it will not directly carry out violent demolition of the venue.
But it's still a fight after all.
It is inevitable that there will be bumps or damages.
"I know. Miss Yu Yue, don't worry about that."
As he spoke, the ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village simply took out a piece of paper.
"This is the clue to the ruins, and the area we have roughly grasped."
He handed the note to Ugetsu.
"This is our sincerity. Miss Yu Yue can send someone to investigate first."
As soon as he said this, he immediately attracted the attention of representatives from several other ninja villages.
——Good for you, Hidden Cloud Village.
You guys are hiding it really well.
They originally thought that they were already well prepared and resourceful.
I never expected that the Hidden Cloud Village, a martial arts sect 'since ancient times', could have such thoughts.
You, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are causing trouble at this time?
The representative of the Hidden Cloud Village was calm and composed.
Although the Hidden Cloud Village is famous for its "military faction", it does not mean that they are all single-celled and stubborn.
If you are a ninja and don't have any wisdom, you won't even know how you died.
This kind of competition concerns the future, so of course no matter what cards are used, it is not too much.
The Hidden Cloud Village cannot guarantee that the information obtained from this relic will allow Miss Ugetsu to choose them.
But he believed that Miss Yu Yue would not refuse such a legendary 'venue'.
——After all, investigating it would be a win-win situation for her.
This may delay the progress of the "Ninja Survival" project.
But so what?
Now it is everyone who needs the "Ninja Survival" project, not Miss Ugetsu begging them to do it.
The representative of the Hidden Cloud Village sat down.
The representatives of other ninja villages could no longer sit still.
Because they found that Ugetsu, the decision maker, started whispering to Uchiha Shisui beside him.
And because of the limitations of the sealing technique, they couldn't hear what the other party said.
——This is a huge problem!!
