Naruto: This Uchiha is a businessman Chapter 010

Character name suggestions: – Kushina, – Minato, – Lu Lin, – Fugaku

Kushina woke up at this moment. She thought it was the mark she left that worked, and the village sent someone to rescue her.

The two Sand Ninja, meanwhile, had been trying to maximize their perception, attempting to find the enemy who had killed their comrade.

But besides the trees, they couldn’t find any enemy.

Cold sweat slowly streamed down their foreheads. They could feel a beast staring at them in the dark forest.

The remaining Jonin swallowed hard. He could only place his hopes on the captain behind him. His comrade, who was of similar strength, had his abdomen pierced by an unknown enemy in one blow. He didn’t think he would fare any better; perhaps his intestines would be left as little as possible?

“Captain, have you found the enemy?”

He spoke softly, but he didn’t hear the reassuring voice.

He could only continue to probe:

“Captain? Captain, are you still there?”

He clearly felt that he was back-to-back with the captain, so why wasn’t the captain answering…

The ninja’s pupils instantly constricted, and chakra surged throughout his body as he fiercely punched behind him.

But his fist failed to hit anything. The captain behind him, at some unknown point, had already fallen to the ground, eyes wide open, dying with a grievance.

The ninja became increasingly panicked. He flashed beside Kushina, grabbed her by the neck, and said fiercely:

“Come out quickly, or I’ll kill this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!”

Thump, thump, thump.

Footsteps echoed in the forest. Lu Lin, dressed in black and wearing a black mask, slowly walked out.

Seeing the mastermind appear, the Sand Ninja’s eyes instantly turned red:

“Damn guy!”

However, he knew he was no match for this person, so he could only grab Kushina and hold her in front of him:

“Let me leave here, otherwise, this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki will definitely die before me!”

Lu Lin tilted his head and didn’t speak. His footsteps continued forward. Facing the Sand Ninja’s threat, he didn’t stop in the slightest.

“Stop right there! If you dare to take another step forward, this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki will definitely die before me!”

The hand gripping Kushina’s neck gradually tightened. Kushina was already starting to feel dizzy, her eyes uncontrollably rolling upwards.

Lu Lin’s figure swayed, as if he had indeed been threatened by the Sand Ninja, and his forward steps halted.

A glimmer of hope appeared in the Sand Ninja’s eyes:

“Move out of my way right now!”

Saying this, he even swung the now unconscious Kushina in his hand, as if to show that he still had this hostage.

“She finally fainted.”

Lu Lin suddenly spoke.

“What do you mean?”

The Sand Ninja was a little confused, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Lin:

“Hurry up and get out of the way, let me go!”

His legs were already starting to tremble uncontrollably. He had never thought he could be so nervous.

Lu Lin scratched his head, slowly moved aside, and waved his hand towards the Sand Ninja, signaling that he could leave.

But the Sand Ninja seemed to be pushing his luck:

“You must walk in front of me. I’ll tell you where to go, otherwise…”

He swung Kushina again.

But this time, Lu Lin didn’t move. He looked at the Sand Ninja opposite him, his gaze slightly chilling:

“I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it. Do you really want to die?”

Lu Lin’s words made the Sand Ninja nervous again:

“What do you want to do? Aren’t you afraid…”

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest. He looked down and saw that at some point, an iron piece had pierced his chest.

Feeling life draining from his body, and his whole body growing cold, he wanted to drag someone down with him.

But the arm he was holding the hostage with had been severed at some unknown point. He couldn’t even go down fighting.

“Ugh…”

He wanted to say something, but blood was already gushing from his throat.

He could only stare at the culprit with his eyes, hatred almost solidifying into a tangible form.

“Tsk tsk tsk, you hate me that much?”

Lu Lin slowly walked up to the Sand Ninja, looked at the powerless enemy, and said with a smile:

“Thank you so much. I feel much better now.”

Then he turned and re-entered the forest. The bodies of the three Sand Ninja were swallowed by the seemingly alive earth at some unknown point, completely disappearing, leaving only the still unconscious Kushina lying there.

The next day, Lu Lin, who had a good night’s sleep, woke up refreshed. After eating the breakfast brought by the maid, he walked swaggeringly onto the street with his hands behind his back.

Konoha was as lively as ever today. Vendors were hawking their wares from time to time, and people were bargaining, a strong sense of everyday life permeated the air.

To be honest, although Konoha was not as prosperous as the Capital of Fire, the common people here were more free and lived more comfortably.

After all, no ninja would bully the common people in their own village for no reason. Only those powerless nobles would exploit and bully the common people under their command.

As he was walking, two familiar figures suddenly appeared ahead: Minato and Kushina, who had been captured last night.

However, Kushina had recovered at this time due to the powerful vitality of the Uzumaki, as she hadn’t sustained much injury to begin with.

And her gaze was constantly on Minato. Clearly, after Lu Lin left last night, Minato must have discovered the mark Kushina left and rushed out, timely rescuing the already unconscious Kushina.

Minato also spotted Lu Lin and greeted him with a smile:

“Good morning, Boss Lu Lin.”

“Good morning to you both.”

Lu Lin said with a chuckle. He was quite easy to get along with when he wasn’t depressed inside, Fugaku could probably attest to that.

“Not going on a mission today?”

“No.”

Minato shook his head:

“I’m going to spend some quality time with Kushina today.”

He looked at Kushina beside him tenderly. Although Kushina was a little embarrassed, she also looked at Minato affectionately, completely disregarding Lu Lin beside them.

Lu Lin felt a little nauseous. He had eaten too much breakfast, and he couldn’t stomach any more dog food.

After a brief chat, he declined Minato’s invitation to go shopping and left in a hurry.

“Boss Lu Lin is really busy.”

“He is, he doesn’t even have time to go shopping on such a nice day.”

The two of them said, and walked towards another street.

His mood was clearly good before going out, so why was he so unhappy after coming back from shopping?

But Kushina probably didn’t recognize him. Last night, he not only wore a ninja outfit and covered his face, but he also deliberately waited until she fainted before speaking.

If he could be recognized like that, Lu Lin wouldn’t be able to play anymore.

“Forget it, I’m not in a good mood today, I won’t go out.”

Then, he called a few maids to give him a massage.

But just as he took off his clothes and lay down on the mat, there was a knock on the courtyard gate.
