Sasuke raised his hand and bonked the little troublemaker twice on the head.

Nowadays, even Kiba doesn't dare to say those three words in front of Sasuke, but Konohamaru just wouldn’t learn his lesson no matter how many times he got beaten.

"Waaah…"

"Naruto Aniki, look at this guy!"

"I didn’t even call him Thin Ice Bro this time!"

"And he still hit me!"

Konohamaru squatted on the rooftop, hugging his head with tears in his eyes.

Sasuke took a deep breath and was about to kick him for good measure, but was stopped by Naruto.

"Forget it, forget it..."

"Give me some face and let Konohamaru off this time."

Sasuke snorted and sat back down in his spot.

Naruto turned his head and looked at Konohamaru in confusion.

"What are you doing here?"

When Konohamaru saw his Aniki asking questions, he wiped his tears, and said, "I’m looking for Mitsuki."

"He told me yesterday that he would come to Konoha today."

As he spoke, Konohamaru pulled out his phone and showed Naruto his chat history with Mitsuki.

Sasuke’s expression instantly darkened when he heard it.

"Didn’t I confiscate his phone?"

"Where did he get another one?"

Sszztt…

Sasuke instantly snatched Konohamaru's phone and began to check the chat records between Mitsuki and Konohamaru.

He looked exactly like a strict father confiscating his kid’s phone to prevent them from wasting time on it.

Of course, another reason was that he was worried that Konohamaru would lead Mitsuki astray.

If the two naughty brats are mixed together... the damage they could cause would be unimaginable.

"Give me back my phone!"

When Konohamaru saw Sasuke snatching his phone, his heart tightened instantly, clearly worried about his privacy being exposed.

Sasuke held the kid’s forehead with one hand, keeping him at arm’s length, while his other hand scrolled through the chat logs...

[Konoha’s Reckless Prodigy: Yo, Mitsuki, how many jobs you pulled off lately?]

[My Father Can Rival a Country: Bro, my dad has been very strict recently, so I only got one done.] (T/N: This name is from a title of a popular Chinese Webnovel.)

[Konoha’s Reckless Prodigy: Pfft, it’s a small matter, I'm familiar with your dad, I'll tell him to stop being such a buzzkill some time later.]

[My Father Can Rival a Country: Thank you, brother!]

Crack…

Sasuke only read a few or two records, but he was already so angry that veins appeared on his forehead.

‘Damn it!’

‘I knew kids shouldn’t be allowed to have phones!’

"Konohamaru?"

"Am I being a buzzkill?"

Sasuke’s words were practically gritted out between his teeth, making it clear that the only reason he hadn’t beaten Konohamaru senseless yet was out of respect for Naruto.

Konohamaru's face froze, and he immediately turned his head and started whistling innocently, as if that would make the whole thing go away.

This could be called the Konoha’s version of ‘stealing the bell while covering one's ears’.

Sasuke took a deep breath and continued to read.

Because he wanted to know what Mitsuki and Konohamaru meant by ‘pulling off jobs’.

As he kept scrolling through the chat records, Sasuke suddenly noticed that they had mentioned a user many times in their chats...

[Konoha’s Reckless Prodigy: Look at this ‘Strongest Nintaijutsu Master’....Hahahaha, watch me scam his entire pension.]

[My Father Can Rival a Country: Damn it! Don’t get too cocky, bro! My target, ‘Old Man Can’t Handle His Back’, has already taken the bait!]

Maybe it was a generational gap, or maybe modern kids just had conversations too advanced for him, but Sasuke read through the logs for a long time and still couldn’t make sense of a single thing.

‘However...’

‘This ‘Strongest Nintaijutsu Master’ seems familiar...’

"Naruto."

"Take a look at what they’re talking about."

Sasuke, who didn't understand, could only hope that his omniscient good brother could decipher it.

"Seriously..."

"What’s so interesting about two kids’ chat logs?"

Naruto took the phone after saying that, and Hinata peeked over his shoulder to read as well.

‘Hooked? Fishing? Retirement funds???’

These words caught Naruto’s eyes, and Naruto’s brain short-circuited so hard he couldn’t help but swear, "WHAT THE HELL?!"

"Konohamaru, are you two little brats doing online dating scams???"

Naruto pointed at the user interface of ‘Strongest Nintaijutsu Master’ and rubbed his temples with one hand as if his brain was about to explode.’

He was not surprised at all that the emergence of the Shinobi World’s Internet gave rise to online relationships.

After all, this world had always been lacking in entertainment, so now that people had a way to share their thoughts freely, it was only natural for them to get carried away.

‘But...’

‘How did the online dating scam appear first?!’

‘This ‘Strongest Nintaijutsu Master’ must be Yondaime Raikage!!’

‘And that "Old Man Can’t Handle His Back" had to be Onoki, right?!’

When he thought of Konohamaru and Mitsuki, two little brats, pretending to be shy girls, sweet-talking their targets...

Or the Yondaime Raikage and Onoki grinning like idiots at their phones, sending cringey lovey-dovey messages...

Naruto felt like this world was truly doomed.

"Hahahahaha!"

"No, Aniki..."

"I was just doing my small part for the village’s development."

Konohamaru scratched his head, looking bashful, then raised his gaze to Naruto with an expectant expression, as if he was waiting for his Aniki to praise him.

"You little menace!!"

"What the hell are you and Mitsuki even doing!"

"Sasuke, beat him up!"

Finally unable to bear it anymore, Naruto called out to Sasuke, and together, they pinned Konohamaru to the ground, spanking him mercilessly.

"Aneki! Help me!"

"Stop Aniki!!"

The thoroughly thrashed Konohamaru bit his lower lip, tears gushing from his eyes. He stretched out his hand towards Hinata, hoping that his Aneki would stop these two guys.

However, Konohamaru’s request for help was somewhat useful.

Hinata quickly walked between the two of them, reached out and grabbed Naruto's arm, then said with concern, "Naruto-kun..."

"Maybe use a stick instead? Your hand might hurt otherwise."

Konohamaru: "..."

Sasuke: "..."

After dealing with Konohamaru, Sasuke went to find Orochimaru and gave Mitsuki the same treatment. Finally, Naruto took the two brats’ phones and sent breakup messages to their scam victims.

On this day, over half the elderly in the Shinobi World got a bitter taste of love’s cruelty.

"Wanting to earn money and contribute to the village is good..."

"But can you not resort to this kind of shady crap?"

Naruto pointed at the two naughty brats standing in front of him and lectured them sternly.

Fortunately, those old people who were deceived did not realize that their little sweethearts were actually two brats, otherwise, they might have stormed Konoha for revenge.

Mitsuki and Konohamaru lowered their heads and didn’t dare to speak.

Their exaggeratedly meek expressions made Naruto and Sasuke’s blood pressure spike instantly.

"Damn it!"

"Why the hell am I even dealing with this?!"

Naruto cursed angrily, then turned around and left the scene. A few seconds later, he brought the reanimated Sandaime back here.

‘When it came to disciplining kids...’

‘Nobody did it better than Grandpa Sandaime!’

After all, he, Uzumaki Naruto, had no intention of becoming the next generation’s ‘Will of Fire inheritor who survives on blood pressure meds’…

After learning what had happened, Hiruzen picked up the black stick given by Naruto, stepped forward and whacked his beloved grandson to the ground.

"KONOHAMARU!!"

"You little rascal!!"

As he was beating him, he turned his head and said to Naruto, "Naruto..."

"Go buy me some blood pressure meds... I can’t take this anymore."
