One more week passed like that. Kaida had to take a few k missions, and now the hospital had 10 bandits with Juinjutsu seals, where Kaida practiced medical jutsu. To protect his morality a little, Kaida checked who among the bandits deserved this.

  The rest were sent to the vilge created by the Uchiha for bandits after their memories were removed and they were pced under semi-perma genjutsu. Si was his own idea, Kaida decided to tribute some more men for that vilge (A.N: in Chapter 160-162).

  There wasn’t much progress in his learning aside from finally mastering three seals and w on the fourth one, but today something important happened.

  “Finally, this bathhouse is about to open. This took so much time and money,” Shisui said, taking his m tea.

  “I’m sure it will all be worth it, brother,” Kaida said, following Shisui and taking his cup.

  “Which bathhouse?” Naruto asked, ing out of his room.

  “We’re going to open a bathhouse, a very big one, for everyone in the vilge,” Kaida told Naruto, who came and picked up his cup full of warm milk.

  “I’ll ask Seo e with his family,” Yomi said.

  “Yup, me too. Sora-sensei will definitely e, but I’m not sure about Mitsuru-sensei. She’s a very busy person,” Kaida said, shrugging his shoulders.

  “I’ll also call my team, though you guys won’t be able to meet them—Anbu fidentiality and all,” Shisui said.

  “But when you give them a free pass, we’ll know they’re your teammates,” Kaida said.

  “Why would I give them a free pass? The vilge pays for all Anbu expenses while they’re part of the Anbu forces. They don’t have to pay for anything, so it’s actually free for them anyway,” Shisui said.

  “Brother, you’ll also be charged for using the bathhouse,” Kaida said as soon as he heard that.

  “I knew you’d say that, hahaha,” Shisui ughed, soon joined by everyone.

  “Jokes aside, we have so much work to do. We e the feast and drinks, decide the order fuests to use the bathhouse if they want, do a final che the staff, oh! And we also o do some promotion to get maximum visibility, and…”

  “Calm down, Mom. We still have a full day, and all of that isn’t difficult to do, so don’t stress too much,” Shisui said, stopping Hae in the middle of her long list of tasks.

  “How I not be stressed? We’re inviting every important person in the vilge; our reputation is on the line,” Hae said.

  “And we’ll do well. It’s not like we don’t know how effective the bathhouse is. Both Uncle Fugaku and Aunt Mikoto gave such positive reviews. I’m sure everything will work out fine,” Shisui said.

  “Yes, Aunt, don’t worry. Just get ready to start ting all the money we’re going to make,” Kaida said.

  “Fine,” Hae finally sat doicked up a cup of tea for herself.

  The promotion pn was simple. Kaida and Shisui would use the Shadow e Jutsu and transformation to transform into various people and spread the news about how effective the bathhouse was. They were the first to try it, and they cimed it helped relieve body pain and made their skin tighter and brighter. They also mentiohe lucky draw event where people could try it for free tomorrow.

  This would be doer a cart roamed around the vilge with flyers and loud annous about the bathhouse. This would surely attract a huge crowd for the mai.

  While Shisui and Kaida hahat, Yomi and Hae maher things, like ensuring the food would be ready for tomorrow. Sihe Akimichi was responsible for that, the quality was guaranteed, but they still made sure everything was ready. Then they did a final che the employees. Shisui sed all their memories just to be sure, and they were pensated for that too. Hae made sure everyone was fine and that no one would suddenly take a leave tomorrow.

  Everything was done, and now everyone was just waiting for the mai.

  …

  Hae was formally dressed as the main mistress of the event, while everyone else was also in their best attire, though not as formal as Hae, who had to handle being the face of the event. And she ha well… until the main problem arose.

  They had made preparations for a crowd of 500 people and some important guests, but they miscalcuted something—the effectiveness of their promotion teique. Free food, a ce to get a pass to use something great for free, and the thrill of a lottery all bio attract a much bigger crowd than they had expected.

  Just from a cursnce, more than 2,000 people were present, and more were ing.

  “Mom, we have to increase the seating,” Shisui said.

  “And the food too,” Kaida added.

  “We’re way too underprepared for this,” Hae said, her smile crumbling a little.

  “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll arrange for more seating,” Shisui said.

  “I’ll go to the Akimichi . They should be able to hahis many people easily. Also, brother, let me help you with the teup,” Kaida said and made a shadow e to help with building a bigger tent for everyoo sit.

  Luckily, they had enough space, as a rge part of the Uchiha pound was still empty due to all the relocation stuff done by the vilge after the ails attack.

  Kaida thehe Wind Instantaneous Movement Jutsu to go to the Akimichi headquarters to increase the food order, while Shisui and Kaida’s e went to the Kagetsu ’s headquarters. The Kagetsu was one of the wealthiest and most politically powerful s in Konoha.

  The reason they went directly to the headquarters was because of the urgency. Luckily, they got all the items needed for setting up the tent as quite easily.

  Even though the situation was a little difficult, everyone was still quite eted. The promotion henomenally effective, and it was almost certain that the bathhouse was going to bee quite famous.

  This was when the effectiveness of being a ninja was shown to everyone in Konoha. Within 20 mihe tent size was quadrupled, and all the seats were arranged, all thanks to nearly a hundred es of Kaida and Shisui.

  Everyoook their seats. After some time, the Hokage and some of the elders arrived, along with the heads and some nobles. Hae had to pull quite a few strings and favors to make them e. Luckily, she knew how to py her cards right and intrigued their curiosity with the help of gossip and rumors.

  Hae went to the stage after weling everyone, followed by a short speech about why they built the bathhouse and how thankful they were that everyoook time out of their busy schedules to e. Theroduced the guests to everyone.

  After all that, the Hokage cut the ribbon of the bathhouse, and as usual, he didn’t fet to give a small speech about the Will of Fire, followed by food and refreshments.

  “Now es the final and most awaited part of the event. We will draw 50 balls from this bowl. Each ball has a number written on it, simir to the number on your seats. Those 50 people will get the first ce to enjoy the bathhouse for free,” Yomi shouted with a chakra-amplified voice. Just behind her was a rge bowl with 2,300 small balls in it.

  She then started drawing one ball at a time to build up the suspense and anticipation among the crowd, while all the guests of honor were escorted ihe bathhouse—at least those who had shown i in using it.

  People like Hiruzen and the elders were too busy to enjoy the luxury, but the heads were the opposite. They and the nobles decided to try out the bathhouse, even though Fugaku ree. Though Fugaku never actually did that, what could he do about the ‘actal’ rumor spreading around Konoha?

  (One hour ter)

  After the heads and others ehe medial baths, they wholeheartedly decided to bee regurs at the bathhouse, while those who got the free pass boasted about how great it was, further increasing the bathhouse's reputation. All in all, the opening of the bathhouse ectacur success.
