Hearing Naruto's words, Sai froze slightly.
What?
This guy Naruto... so he is quite greedy?
But after wondering for a moment, Sai immediately asked with a smirk.
"Hey, the gift is indeed a bit too light."
"Then how can you tell me?"
"I'm really curious."
Sai showed a sincere look.
Naruto smiled.
The fish has been hooked.
Now it depends on what price Danzo is willing to pay.
After looking at Sai up and down, Naruto also began to show off his acting skills.
"Look at you, Sai—very generous."
"In this case, invite me to ramen for a few days first, and I'll think about it."
"No problem!"
Sai readily agreed.
Then, he left Naruto's house.
After walking out of the room and turning around, the smile on Sai's face faded instantly.
He left with a blank expression, without the slightest intention of engagement.
In his view, Naruto has already made a condition.
What he has to do is to bring Naruto's conditions back to Danzo, and then Danzo will decide.
Soon.
Sai returned to the Root headquarters.
In the shadows, Danzo had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Sai coming back, he couldn't wait to ask.
"How? Did you find out how he cultivated the Sharingan?"
Sai shook his head.
"The target declined."
Danzo frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied.
If you were refused, why didn't you ask again?
Why did you come back after being rejected?
As Danzo thought about it, Sai continued:
"Although he refused."
"However, he put forward conditions."
Danzo was overjoyed.
Conditions?
Open conditions are good!
If the conditions are met, it means that there is really a way to practice the Sharingan!
That being the case.
No matter what the price is, he will get this method to the end!
At that time, a pair of strong Sharingan will be his biggest boost to compete for the position of Hokage!
Immediately, he followed up.
"What conditions!"
Sai said with a blank face.
"The target asked me to treat him to ramen noodles for a few days, and then he would think about whether to tell me the answer."
Upon hearing this condition, Danzo's brows tightened.
Not too difficult, but too easy!
Is this kind of thing that can be solved with a few hundred ryo of silver also called a condition?
Danzo's first reaction was impossible!
When something goes wrong, there must be a trick.
With such a simple condition, Naruto must have set a trap!
Danzo squinted his eyes, thinking he had seen through Naruto's trick.
"Hmph, do you want to delay the time?"
"Please ramen for a few days, does that mean don't ask for a few days?"
"In that case..."
"Then I'll just ask you all at once!"
"Giving you no reason to procrastinate!"
Danzo sneered, then said.
"Sai, agree to his request, but follow my method."
Sai nodded mechanically:
"Yes."
Soon came the second day.
Early in the morning.
At this time, the sun had gradually risen.
If it were usual.
At this time, Naruto had already left the house.
But Naruto deliberately waited at home today.
Because he knew that Sai would definitely come to him.
He wanted to see how Danzo would respond.
Then.
When Sai stood at the door, raising his hand to knock on the door.
He opened the door directly.
Sai froze, but luckily the smirk on his face was ready before knocking on the door.
So he didn't panic.
Naruto looked him up and down, then asked with a frown.
"You came so early, are you going to treat me to ramen?"
Sai said with a smile.
"I've already bought you a whole year's worth of ramen at Ichiraku Ramen Shop."
"You can eat whenever you want."
Hearing this.
Naruto couldn't help being slightly stunned.
Goodness, this Danzo is going all out!
He may think that I am procrastinating for time, but in the end, he overthought it!
Giving away a year's worth of ramen money for nothing!
"Now, can you tell me the answer?"
Sai couldn't wait.
And at this time, Naruto, how could he let Danzo go so easily?
Just kidding, the others practiced, but they all paid tuition.
Can Danzo still get away?
With a sigh, Naruto showed dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Sai didn't understand, but asked anyway.
"What's wrong? Any more questions?"
Naruto didn't speak, just raised his hand to cover his cheek.
Only then did Sai realize that Naruto was wearing some worn-out clothes.
There were a lot of open seams at the cuffs.
Obviously, this dress had been worn for a long time.
Naruto sighed and spoke slowly.
"Sigh, I've been busy practicing recently, so I didn't even notice that my clothes were torn."
"The furniture at home has been used for so many years, and it should be replaced."
"I don't know if any kind person can help."
As he spoke, his eyes kept flicking to Sai.
No matter how dull Sai was, he understood what Naruto meant.
However, as a tool man, he has no right to make decisions.
He needs to refer Danzo to this matter.
So.
He said with a smile.
"I need to think about it."
Naruto said with a smile when he heard it.
"Then think about it slowly, I won't see you out."
Bang.
The door closed.
Sai received the second rejection.
But.
He doesn't care.
Anyway, he is a tool man.
As long as the task can be completed, he is willing to do anything.
Using his life to serve Master Danzo, this is the way of Root ninja survival.
Soon.
Sai returned to the Root headquarters again.
Danzo looked puzzled when he saw Sai.
Didn't you just go out not long ago?
Come back so soon?
Could it be that Naruto has already told you the method?
Danzo suddenly became excited.
"How? Did he tell you?"
Sai shook his head.
"Not at all."
Danzo's mood suddenly plummeted.
"Then what are you doing back here?"
Sai said flatly.
"The target set new demands."
Danzo frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
"W-what request?"
Sai said.
"The target said that the clothes were worn out, and the furniture at home was also very old. He wanted to replace the furniture and get new clothes."
When Danzo heard it, his whole head buzzed.
After being dazed for a moment, he gritted his teeth!
"This kid! He actually pushes an inch!"
Danzo hardened his fist.
He didn't expect that this Naruto actually learned how to ask for a price!
Not enough ramen for a year?
Now you still have to buy clothes and furniture for him?
Although he was very angry...
However, because of the success of the Sharingan's cultivation method.
Danzo could only bear it.
"You can figure it out and use the organization's funds."
Sai nodded and turned to leave.
But Danzo suddenly remembered a situation and quickly called Sai to stop.
"Wait!"
"Clothes must be expensive, not cheap."
"For furniture, directly contact the people in the furniture city. If Naruto wants any furniture, let him come to get it directly."
"Don't let him find an opportunity to be dissatisfied!"
Sai nodded in understanding.
Then left.
This time Danzo didn't stop him.
And Danzo was still congratulating himself on his wit.
That kid actually set up a trap here.
If I take some bargains, he will definitely deny it.
This time I'll just take the best one, let's see how you renege!
Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise this kid would have succeeded!
As expected of me!
The Sharingan's cultivation method, I, Danzo, must win!
It was sunny and bright.
The breeze brushed Sai's cheeks, blowing his bangs.
Originally, he should have paid a visit early in the morning.
But he was picky when he picked out clothes.
Shopping is obviously not something he is good at.
The simplest and crudest way is to buy all the clothes you see.
But it is a pity that the Root funds do not allow him to be so profligate.
Therefore, he spent a lot of time picking and choosing.
Then went to communicate with the furniture city.
After finally finishing everything.
The sky had darkened.
Sai was carrying big and small bags of clothes, followed by a cart from a furniture store, and came to visit.
Same as the previous day.
Just arrived at Naruto's doorstep.
Before he could even knock, the door opened automatically.
It was as if Naruto had been waiting for a long time.
When Naruto saw Sai, he was not polite at all, and directly took the big and small bags in his hand.
Then looked through each piece.
"Although the taste in clothes is not very good, the materials are really good, and they are barely acceptable."
Naruto picked and picked and reluctantly accepted it with his mouth curled up.
He remembered asking for something else, though.
So he raised his eyes and asked.
"Where's the furniture?"
Sai smiled and pointed to the back.
"Okay, then move them all in, and throw away the old ones, or give them to the poor in the village."
Naruto suddenly smiled.
This Danzo is really willing to spend money!
Clothes and furniture are all high-end goods!
"Then let's go."
Sai was taken aback for a moment, and his heart was overjoyed immediately!
"Could it be..."
But soon.
Sai's illusion was shattered.
A few minutes later, they were standing in front of Ichiraku Ramen Shop.
"Thank you for your hard work this time, let me treat you to a bowl of ramen."
Naruto patted Sai's shoulder generously.
"Huh?"
Not allowing him to refuse, Naruto pulled him closer to the ramen shop.
Then he shouted at the owner.
"Uncle! Two bowls of special ramen, I beg you, this is not too high!"
The owner said with a smile.
"No problem."
Soon.
Two extra-large bowls of ramen arrived.
Sai felt dizzy looking at the big bowl, which was as big as his two heads.
The quantity was simply too much.
But watching Naruto next to him slurping and starting to pick up the noodles, he could only eat along with him.
Wait until they finished eating.
Naruto looked like he couldn't finish it.
Sai had a big belly and couldn't move at all.
It hurt to move.
He was too full to eat.
Afterwards, the two sat on a bench beside them, admiring the scenery on the street.
"Naruot-kun, you still refuse to tell me how to practice the Sharingan, do you have any regrets?"
Naruto didn't answer, but looked at the shops opposite and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's really enviable."
Sai immediately asked, "What do you envy?"
Naruto referred to those shops where people come and go.
"I go out every morning to set up a stall to sell dango, and they are the cheapest dango in Konoha."
"I don't know when I will be able to own a store of my own."
"If I had my own shop, I would definitely be able to make more money."
"It's a pity, I can only think about it, the store is too expensive, at least one year's income is needed to afford it..."
