Seeing Shisui's somewhat embarrassed expression, Naruto knew that in a Ninja's mindset, they wouldn't proactively go out to eradicate mountain bandits or robbers unless they were given a mission.
If they did it proactively, they would be called heroes, not Ninja.
The purpose of a Ninja is to serve the wealthy, not the common people.
In the eyes of the wealthy, or rather, the nobles, Ninja are nothing more than a group of laborers.
"I give you money, you do things for me, like finding cats, walking dogs, clearing clogged sewers, taking care of children, playing with children." Such missions are ubiquitous on Konoha Village's mission board.
These missions are said to be for the training of Genin who have just graduated from the Ninja Academy, but in reality, they still only serve the wealthy.
And Shisui's actions at this time went against the Ninja's code of conduct.
Naruto looked at Shisui, smiled, and waved his hand, saying, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. While your actions are very un-Ninja-like, they certainly earn you the title of hero."
"The hero I speak of is naturally not the hero of a certain Ninja Village, but a hero of the Ninja World."
"The heroes of Ninja Villages are a bit too narrow-minded!"
After hearing Naruto's words, Shisui nodded firmly. He and Itachi had already decided to liberate the entire Ninja World and bring true peace to the Ninja World.
By then, they would indeed be heroes of the entire Ninja World.
Under Itachi's leadership, the three of them arrived at their Office here.
What they called an Office was actually just an ordinary wooden house.
Next to the Office was a classroom for teaching children, and in addition, a simple training ground and playground were also built here.
Naruto stood at the entrance of the Office, surveyed the surrounding environment, and then said, "It seems you are still very short on money here!"
Hearing Naruto's words, Itachi nodded and said, "Yes… The money Shisui earns is only enough to cover the daily expenses and food for the base!"
"Other expenses are basically saved wherever possible!"
"Don't worry! Since I'm here, you won't have to be so strapped for cash anymore."
Hearing Naruto's words, Itachi and Shisui were both somewhat puzzled.
They both didn't know yet that the virtual helmet was already selling like hotcakes throughout Konoha, and even the entire Land of Fire.
Although there were only two virtual helmet experience stores, and both were within Konoha.
But… don't forget, there was also Sister Hua, who was interested in Zephyr Sensei.
This Sister Hua was also the cousin of the Land of Fire Lord. How could she not pay attention to such a good thing as the virtual helmet?
Now, the nobles of the Land of Fire were already bidding up to one million for a single virtual helmet, which shows how popular the virtual helmet is!
Naruto didn't bother to explain anything to Itachi and Shisui.
Naruto was the first to walk into the Office, then took out a teleportation device from his backpack and installed it in the corner of the Office.
"Naruto… What is this thing?"
Shisui asked, looking at the teleportation device in the corner.
"You'll know in a moment!"
As he spoke, Mecha Naruto stood still, without any movement.
On the other side.
In Konoha Village.
Naruto took off his virtual helmet, then found a sack, filled it with money from the safe, and carried it towards the teleportation device.
The teleportation device lit up, and Naruto, along with the sack he was carrying, disappeared from the room.
On the other side.
Itachi and Shisui kept looking at Mecha Naruto with confusion.
"Itachi, is there something wrong with this Mecha Naruto?"
Shisui poked Mecha Naruto's face and asked with some doubt.
"It shouldn't be…"
Just as Itachi finished speaking, the teleportation device placed in the corner lit up, and then Naruto, carrying a sack, appeared from within the teleportation device.
"Naruto…"
Shisui pointed at Naruto, his face full of disbelief.
Seeing this, Itachi fell into deep thought, "Is this… a spatial teleportation device?"
"This is called a teleportation device. Currently, there are three teleportation locations: my home within Konoha Village, the forest about ten li outside Konoha Village, and this place!"
Hearing this, Shisui's face was filled with excitement, "Eh? Does that mean I can return to Konoha anytime?"
"If that's the case, I'll go back now and bring all the money I've saved over!"
In fact, Shisui had long planned to return to Konoha to retrieve the "wife's savings" he had accumulated over the years.
But… if he left Itachi here alone, he wouldn't be at ease, so he hadn't acted, living only by preying on mountain bandits for their spoils every day.
Hearing Shisui's words, Naruto waved his hand and said, "No need."
As he spoke, Naruto opened the sack he was carrying.
The two looked towards the sack, and what met their eyes were bundles of banknotes, all of large denominations.
"Naruto… Where did you get so much money?"
"Yeah… Looking at this sack of money, it must be at least tens of millions!"
Seeing their shocked expressions, Naruto waved his hand and said, "These are just small change."
"You weren't in Konoha, so you don't know, but the virtual helmet has already become popular in Konoha. Each helmet costs 500,000, and this money was earned in just a short while of selling."
Naruto was indeed right. Let alone daily sales, just the hundred sets he discussed with Iruka today earned Naruto a net profit of fifty million.
Don't mention costs to Naruto; in front of King Grey Wolf, it's basically zero cost.
How much are those recycled scraps worth? They're called scraps, so they're basically worthless.
Compared to the profit, this small cost is not a cost at all.
"virtual helmet, huh?" Hearing that it was profit from the virtual helmet, Itachi was relieved, after all… he was well aware of how amazing the virtual helmet was.
Once released, it would definitely sweep across the entire Land of Fire, that was certain. He estimated that in a few years, it wouldn't just be popular in the Land of Fire, but the entire Ninja World!
"Ah…" Just then, Shisui sighed, "It's a pity that our place is too remote, and we can't even connect to the internet, otherwise I could also play in the virtual world!"
Naruto heard this and said with some confusion,
"Hmm? You have internet here! Why can't you play?"
"Hmm? Do we have internet here?"
As he spoke, Shisui put on the helmet.
After putting on the helmet and checking it, he took it off and said excitedly, "There's internet! We really have internet here!"
Just then, Naruto, who had taken out his phone, briefly checked the signal and found that the signal here was not from the satellite he had previously launched that could cover the entire Land of Fire.
Instead, it was the satellite he had given to Sasori earlier.
"So that's how it is… No wonder there was no signal before!"
"It seems Sasori has already been here!"
