Naruto: My Chill Life in the Hyuga Main House

All eyes turned toward Satori Hyuga, eager to hear his response.

It was Satori Hyuga who first proposed launching a massage parlor for the Hyūga Clan. The Ultimate Massage Chair was also his invention.

In this matter, Satori Hyuga indeed had an inseparable connection.

Hyūga Sounmei's expression shifted slightly. Before he could voice his support for his grandson, Satori cut in calmly, "Elder, your words seem a bit one-sided."

"The business plan and massage parlor were accepted and carried out because everyone saw their commercial potential and substantial profit."

"If the current executor is struggling, I don't mind using my other ventures to cover any losses—for the sake of the clan, of course."

"But if even such a profitable venture as a massage parlor can't succeed, other businesses will likely struggle even more."

"Instead of allowing certain people to waste resources needlessly, it would be better to let me gradually bring benefits to the clan."

His words subtly targeted the Elder—not directly calling him incapable, but clearly implying it.

The Elder clenched his teeth furiously, gripping his hands tightly until they cracked audibly.

He was already furious over the massage parlor's failure—it had seemed like such a sure bet. How had it gone south under his watch?

This left him powerless to counter the younger generation's barbs.

Seeing how enraged the Elder was, Satori seized the opportunity and looked toward the Clan Leader, Ten'yō Hyūga, speaking boldly, "Clan Leader, since I was the one who originally suggested and conceptualized this, I, Satori Hyūga, am willing to give it a try and see if I can turn things around."

"The Elder is aging; his energy has waned, and he's struggling to handle strategic matters. Let me take over—perhaps I could breathe new life into this venture."

Ten'yō Hyūga regarded Satori Hyūga in surprise, never expecting him to suggest salvaging the massage parlor.

He lowered his gaze, eyes shadowed in thought, then after a pause, lifted his head again.

"Since you have confidence, then by all means, go ahead and try," he said. "After all, it's a business operation where the clan has invested significant energy and manpower."

"If you can revive this business, you'll become a great contributor to the Hyūga Clan."

"But should you fail… the food processing factory will fall under direct clan control."

In the end, whether Satori succeeded or failed, the clan would benefit either way.

The Elder sneered coldly at Satori, a mocking smile tugging at his lips as he said coolly, "Fine. Let's see what you're capable of."

He couldn't believe a child—barely an adult—could outdo him. Moreover, the challenges of promoting the massage parlor across the Land of Fire were beyond most people's comprehension.

Even with his ability to mobilize a large portion of the Hyūga Clan's resources, he couldn't push through the massage parlor project successfully.

How could a reckless young kid like Satori truly understand the difficulties involved?

Even though Satori previously managed to sell Ultimate Massage Chairs and instant noodles, those were just novelties.

Managing a massage parlor wasn't that simple.

The Elder was convinced Satori couldn't bring anything truly new to the table in terms of massage services.

Moreover, the massage parlor staff were all part of his Branch House and would never take Satori Hyūga's words seriously.

Seeing no opposition, and with both the Clan Leader and Elder having agreed, Satori inwardly smiled.

After all, he possessed memories from two lives. After dispatching agents to gather intelligence, he had already devised thorough countermeasures.

He only proposed this idea after having a complete strategy in place, confident enough to speak up.

The Ultimate Massage Chair was one of his earlier products, with limited production and sales numbers.

Although food processing factory production and distribution were steadily increasing, it remained solely Satori's venture, still lacking foundational strength.

Achieving large-scale profits and securing enough resources would still require time and steady growth.

But the massage parlors spread across the Land of Fire were a completely different story. Developed by the noble Hyūga clan, vast sums of money and effort had been invested in this enterprise.

Satori intended to leverage this industry to gain more resources and benefits for himself.

Though he appeared powerful now, everything depended on heavy investment and scientific research.

The rich rely on technology, while the weak depend on mutations.

Once he set foot on the path of science, he had to keep pouring energy and money into it, harvesting results to fuel his own growth.

If he developed too slowly, he risked falling far behind others later on.

Take for example Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, who were rapidly growing stronger.

They would eventually ascend to Kage-level power, and Satori wasn't certain whether his natural form alone could rival such strength.

After obtaining family approval, Satori successfully gained management rights over the massage parlors in the Land of Fire.

Remote control, however, proved inconvenient.

This era did not yet have mobile phones or communication devices, making real-time communication and commands impossible for Satori.

Therefore, Satori submitted a request to leave Konoha.

Under normal circumstances, a member of the Hyūga Main House wouldn't be permitted to leave Konoha — not even the clan compound.

All these precautions existed to protect the Main House bloodline and prevent the Byakugan from leaking out.

Satori presented a compelling reason: he needed on-site inspections to develop tailored strategies.

If the Elder could travel far away, then as the successor, he should be able to as well.

After considerable persuasion, Satori successfully obtained permission to leave Konoha.

However, the journey was undertaken secretly, without official registration in the village.

With approval secured, Satori naturally accepted.

Though the Hyūga clan seemed like part of Konoha, they had their own hidden intentions — clandestine passages built in secret, enabling covert exits from Konoha.

In fact, most clans had similar escape routes, though none ever admitted to them.

For his first journey outside Konoha, Satori brought not only two guarding Jonin but also Might Guy.

He valued his life greatly and wouldn't let his guard down easily.

Inside Konoha, he was just another freshly graduated nobody, but beyond its walls, his reputation was considerable.

[Hyūga-Style Massage Technique] creator, [Instant Noodles] inventor, and [Secret Spice Formula] master.

Each artifact could bring immense profit, making him a highly coveted target.

This journey was no different, as he had meticulously prepared. After reuniting with his family, they waited three full days before departing under a dark and windy night.

In the pitch-black forest where visibility was nearly nonexistent, six figures swiftly wove through the shifting shadows beneath the trees.

With unmatched agility and blinding speed, they leapt over ten meters in a single bound, moving like shadowy specters. Among them stood one figure in particular, carrying a colossal bundle on his back—looking like a mountain on the move.
