Another Naruto Fanfic

(Author's plea)

Hi everyone, I know you are here for the chapter! Could you please write a review and if you are reading this in , can your please donate some power stones? I didn't speak of why I disappeared for a long time, if you want to know the reason continue reading this Author's plea and apology, if you don't I put an ending note, just scroll down to it.

I stopped writing around 3 months ago as I promised for a mass release. The reason why I stopped writing and didn't follow up with my promise is because 2 days before I disappeared I was suffering for frequent nose bleeds and headaches in which I wrote in my discord server. In my last day I said that I was going to check in the hospital in which I did. I was forced to stay in the hospital for a month, 42 days to be exact. The reason? I don't feel comfortable enough to talk about it. After that because of the whole Corona thing I had to finish my university projects so I caged myself in my room and tried not to enter any account to focus in my studies, and I got straight As! Again! I would like to apologize for my disappearance for such a long time, and I know many people stopped reading or lost interest in my writing and this is why I need to rebuild what I've broken... The people's trust, and the collection count! A review and some power stones of each would prove very helpful to me as my dream is to pursue writing as a career! Thank you very much for whoever made it till here without falling asleep :). And thank you for everything... really! I mean it!

(End of Author's plea)

I put my hand in my pocket, fiddling with the 4 scales that I earned from killing that demon snake as I walked toward the Yamanaka's compound. I stayed out of the dark alleyways despite being strong enough to defend myself as there was no use putting myself in danger and I still don't have anyway to respond to more than one enemy at a time.

I honestly don't expect a huge harvest but even a small amount of coffee beans, cocoa beans, or tea leaves would be fine since I don't intent to add a lot of caffeine to the pills. Our bodies adapt to chemicals, but the first time you use a substance is the strongest! It could leave an everlasting impression and the feeling that you need more. Taking caffeine for the first time gives you the feeling that it is strong, the reason why we don't remember that feeling is because caffeine is wide spread and we intake a small amount of it on daily bases. Throughout the years our body have accustomed itself for the intake of small quantity of caffeine and the only way to feel the effect of caffeine taking place again is by talking it in larger quantity.

The caffeine pills are made in the hope that the people will get addicted to the feeling of being energized and as their body gets accustomed, their demand will increase with time, so will my ability to supply.

As for the drugs, I am anticipating them to get me some interesting samples since there are animals and plants that exist in this world but don't exist in my previous one. I knew not to have my expectations up so I tried my best to anticipate the worst results so I don't feel disappointed.

I arrived at the compound and went to the front of the main building. As I arrived, Inoichi's followers and other clansmen started appearing one by one. Each one of them didn't organize their inventory as they came to me one by one to show me what they found.

"Bring me a Pen and a Paper!" I asked and soon I started counting what was found and how much of it. I already told the clansmen that those plants that they just found are very precious, so they didn't dare act irresponsibly and damage those plants.

I started tasting the beans that came to me, one by one... Until the moment someone gave me a bean that was a little bit wet... Which I forced that stupid person to taste it himself, and sure enough it was a goat's feces! I made him swallow all the feces that he brought as this wasn't a game. I hope this made it clear to Inoichi's stupid followers that this matter determine the future of the clan.

I started putting the beans in order of vitality and quality. I started asking about the locations of the beans as I prioritized the worst beans first to make sure that if there was any spy, they would target the worst ones first! Tomorrow I will visit the locations of the best ones without letting anyone know. As for the strains I was shocked that the clansmen brought a lot of varieties, there were fields of cannabis in the wild! I nodded my head and started calculating the %THC of each as I understood the chemistry of the cannabis since my friends were trying to get me addicted to it when I fell into depression in my past life.

I quickly ordered the clansmen to show me the way as we all rushed toward the fields of cannabis and started harvesting them in huge quantities!

One of the clansmen asked "What are these for?" and so I replied "Medicine, treatment and are very addictive. No one is allowed to have any of those since they can ruin your life if used wrongly." The clansmen gulped and soon the information about its addictive property started to spread between my followers. Everyone made sure to not eat or ingest as they were harvesting.

We kept on harvesting until the morning's sun rose. I made sure to store the cannabis in a place that no one has access to except for me. The harvest of many fields was amazing, this quantity is enough to last a family of addicts an entire year! Maybe even more!

I was making estimates of the amount of money this will make me as I was separating different types of cannabis and their seeds. The cannabis still needs to be processed which is going to be a lot of work considering the amount!

It was around 2pm the second day of the competition that I went out of the secret storage and started visiting the locations in which the clansmen found the best quality beans. I picking up everything started from coffee beans to tea leaves. Everything was packed nicely and cleanly! I separated a certain amount of seeds to plant while keeping the rest to use for the pills.

Tea contains more caffeine than coffee does, so the pills made out of tea leaves would be sold for a higher price. The only thing needed now was the time to manufacture the pills! I sighed as there was a lot of work to do but I can't lost motivation! I need to do this before I start doing the fun stuff!

I went back to the compound and sure enough, a few clansmen told me that the locations I gave priority to were burned down and I acted angry but in actuality I am not. Inoichi soon notified me about the Nara, Akimichi, Sarutobi, Hyuga, Hatake, Senju sponsoring my cause with 200,000 Ryo each. I knew for a fact that it was all Hiruzen's job, and now we have 1,200,000 Ryo at our hands not counting the 1,000,000 Ryo that I will be receiving from the village.

I started thinking of ways to quickly turn a profit and a way I did find! This time, it was physics! If I could improve the electric generators of the village, just think about the amount of money I could gain from the village, and not only that! If monopolized, I could sell it outside the village and make an even bigger profit!

My ideas were all over the place, but I still didn't lost track of what is important; going to the Akimichi to make a deal with them about the chakra pills and we finally agreed on 65-35 as I took the lion's share because I will be the manufacturer.

I used some of the money to buy an electric generator and went down to work! I saw that Fū's income was only 620,000 Ryo, 600,000 of which came from the Inuzuka, Aburame and Shimura, and the other 20,000 from selling products in two days.

The caffeine pills in which I called Energy Pill were a hit! It took a month to produce thousands of them not mentioning I was working on processing the cannabis and making chakra pills too! The caffeine pills acme very popular in less than a week that even clans that were not in a good term with us such as the Uchiha, Inuzuka, Aburame and others started buying in a huge quantity. The Energy Pills soon ran out and people were disappointed but I made a huge amount of money by selling them.

The most important thing about the Energy Pills wasn't the money, but the connections! I started making connections with hoarders and trade unions in which I introduced my drugs to. I made sure to wait for Danzo to commit into funding Fū's campaign as he really wanted to win control of the Yamanaka. Fū's profit was higher than mine by 600,000 Ryo as we both were in the 3 millions range. Once Fū's profit reached 4 millions, I released the drug trade distributed across the world by trade unions and hoarders such as Gato. The money that started to come to me was enough to put the village's yearly income to shame! The difference of 600,000 Ryo soon became more than 18 millions Ryo but at the opposite direction! The amount of money I made was phenomenon, and soon I announced the second version of the Energy Pills; the Chakra Pills! The price was high but the reputation was already there. Clans fought to buy the pills at a higher price and the Yamanaka's elders tried to get some of the money to switch sides and side by me, but I refused to give them any as I was going to replace them as soon as I reclaim the clan as Inoichi's.

I knew that the public opinion is important, so I made sure to invest into small family projects like Tenten's mother's ninja tools shop, Ichiraku ramen and many more small projects. Getting a share in small projects and improving my public image was worth the dirty money that Danzo generously used to fund my clan.

Danzo must be puking blood as he lost around 20% of his money funding a losing cause! I will gladly accept Danzo's gift as the stupid oldman actually paid 8% of the money as taxes to the village itself and as if my success wasn't enough, at the last week of the three months I dropped the biggest bomb! An improved electric generator! I sat with the Konoha council which included Danzo and discussed the price. Danzo was suggesting stupid deals in which I refused and then said "I came to sell it here because I want what is best for the village, if I only had money in mind I would have sold it outside without any of you knowing!". The council was furious but Hiruzen was the hokage, and he was on my side. The council couldn't do anything.

The village agreed to pay me 2 millions Ryo now, and another 4 million in a later date. Now the economical and political sides of the competition are won one sidedly, all what is left is to kill Fū! I will prepare as much as I can before the match, and will make it one sided!
