Naruto: This Uchiha is a businessman Chapter 137

“Cough cough, Lu Lin-kun, with your current power, I probably can’t help much.”

Orochimaru stared intently at Lu Lin, trying to discern something from his smiling eyes.

“Haha, Lord Orochimaru still underestimates himself.”

Not getting the answer he wanted, Orochimaru’s expression stiffened, but he quickly recovered:

“I am merely the most ordinary ninja in the ninja world, and I don’t possess any rare kekkei genkai. For Lu Lin-kun to think so highly of me, could it be that Lu Lin-kun also desires eternal life?”

At this point, he was also somewhat surprised. How did Lu Lin know what he was currently pursuing?

“Lord Orochimaru can imagine whatever you wish. As long as you work with me, you can think anything you want, as long as you are satisfied.”

Although it would be difficult to gain Orochimaru’s loyalty, it didn’t matter. As long as he could keep him suppressed, Orochimaru wouldn’t cause any trouble. Lu Lin was very confident in his own strength.

“I…”

He hesitated, the words he intended to use to refuse caught in his throat, because he saw a fleeting killing intent in Lu Lin’s eyes. It was clear that if he refused, he would likely be killed on the spot.

But soon, his heart rejoiced, because in his perception, a familiar chakra fluctuation appeared. Lu Lin’s expression also changed:

“Tsk, they arrived so quickly.”

He was a bit displeased, because he could already sense Hiruzen Sarutobi’s chakra rapidly approaching. Around him, there was a large amount of chakra, presumably from ANBU ninjas.

“Hmm?”

Lu Lin’s face showed a strange expression:

“The little sun is here too?”

Minato Namikaze’s chakra was as distinct as Hiruzen Sarutobi’s among the arriving ninjas.

Shaking his head in annoyance, he looked at Orochimaru and said pointedly:

“Lord Orochimaru, it seems I won’t get your answer today. However, we will meet again sooner or later. I hope by then, you will have your answer. Don’t disappoint me, okay?”

Waving his hand, he led Obito, who had recovered a little, towards Fugaku’s family compound.

Watching the departing figure, Orochimaru finally breathed a sigh of relief. After a short period of rest, he finally had the strength to stand up from the ground.

But his gaze remained fixed on the direction Lu Lin had left, his face expressionless, lost in thought.

At the anchor point of Fugaku’s house.

At this time, there were not many people left outside the shuttle gate. Most of the remaining ones were Uchiha ninjas, waiting there to rendezvous with Lu Lin.

Upon seeing Lu Lin return, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.

“Lord, the transfer is almost complete. Shall we leave now?”

Ming Yan said weakly. Activating the shuttle gate for such a long time had left him somewhat exhausted, but fortunately, the consumption of his dōjutsu power was not too great.

“Wait a moment.”

Lu Lin looked at the ninjas still on site and found Fugaku among them. Sensing his elder brother’s gaze, Fugaku scratched his head and walked out, not at all like the dignified Uchiha clan leader.

“Why are you still here?”

Facing his younger brother, Lu Lin asked exasperatedly.

“Isn’t it because I’m waiting for you?”

Fugaku replied as if it were obvious:

“Besides, I’ve also awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, so staying here counts as a top-tier combat force, doesn’t it?”

“You?”

Lu Lin looked him up and down with some doubt:

“You’ve been clan leader for so long, and you haven’t really made a move. Can you still skillfully use the family’s taijutsu and ninjutsu?”

“Of course. Every day after I finish my duties, I train by myself.”

He wanted to show Lu Lin, but Lu Lin stopped him:

“Alright, you should just focus on being the clan leader. By the way, what’s your Mangekyo ability?”

When it came to his ability, Fugaku immediately perked up. He had always wanted to show off to his elder brother, but Lu Lin had never asked on his own initiative, so he thought Lu Lin wasn’t interested.

He slowly moved closer to Lu Lin. His ability couldn’t be known by others, not even by other Uchiha clan members. In the entire ninja world, the person he trusted the most was his elder brother; even his wife had to come after him.

“My Mangekyo has only one ability, which is to deduce the future. However, the longer the deduction, the more dōjutsu power it consumes, and it can even lead to blindness.”

Seeing his younger brother, the clan leader, still acting so furtive and sneaky, Lu Lin couldn’t resist giving him a slap.

Having been slapped without reason, Fugaku looked at Lu Lin with a hint of resentment, his eyes seemingly asking why he was slapped.

“Cough cough.”

Dodging Fugaku’s gaze, Lu Lin cleared his throat:

“Your ability is quite good; if used well, it can have miraculous effects.”

With his ability praised by Lu Lin, Fugaku no longer cared about the slap he had just received, and said gleefully:

“Right? I can also deduce what will happen to the clan or the Land of Tea in the future. How about it, want to see?”

“Forget it.”

Lu Lin shook his head, refusing Fugaku’s suggestion. Not to mention whether he could still see it now, the Uchiha clan had been completely changed beyond recognition by Lu Lin. Even if he could see, how far into the future could he see? Lu Lin didn’t want his eyes to be ruined before he even used them.

Besides, in the current ninja world, there was no one who could make Lu Lin pay enough attention, not even that Ōtsutsuki hidden somewhere.

There was still a long time before his appearance, after all, he still had to repair his body. If he were to come out now and cause trouble in the ninja world, Lu Lin would immediately go and fight him.

There was nothing he could do. He still had three cards waiting for this Ōtsutsuki. His appearance would not make Lu Lin fearful; instead, it would make Lu Lin even more excited.

In a certain corner of the ninja world, Isshiki Ōtsutsuki inexplicably shivered. Why did he feel like someone in the ninja world had ill intentions towards him?

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn’t figure out where he had made a mistake, so he had no choice but to continue repairing his injuries. Although his strength was already very strong in the ninja world, it was still somewhat unstable.

The incident with Kaguya Ōtsutsuki a thousand years ago had left a deep impression on him, and his personality had become much more cautious. He was determined to return to his peak state before returning to the ninja world.

After cursing a few times, Isshiki refocused his attention on the table in front of him. On it lay a book he had written, which contained some interesting experiences he had recorded over the past thousand years. The cover of the book had a few large characters:

[Isshiki Ōtsutsuki: Hiding in the Ninja World to Cultivate Immortality]

“Sarutobi, don’t let those Uchiha escape!”
