"Hmm, the system halved the magic defense, and defense value, but in exchange, they doubled my Hp, and Mp. Now I don't have to worry about my chakra. That should take care of my sand manipulation, and I'll have to work on some original sand moves that I can work with my sand. Hmm a sand tsunami, I'll work on you yet." thought Hari.
Hari left his apartment while leaving a note for Gaara, he then went to see the Kazekage. The walk took about thirty minutes, and he finally arrived at the Kazekage tower, and made an appointment with the Kazekage which was quickly approved.
"Jeez I wonder why.?" Hari thought while rolling his eyes.
I knocked on the door, and a voice said to come in.
"Good morning Kazekage-sama, I'm sorry about yesterday's debacle, but you must understand, surely we deserved a good sleep seing as I somehow stopped a fully manifested Biju, no thanks to yours truly" Hari said in a sarcastic tone while accusing the Kazekage of something.
"You must understand, the shukaku jinchuuriki is unstable, and we have no way of suppressing it, until today." the Kazekage said in a matter a fact tone.
"Yes, yes, Can you please stop assassinating Gaara?, now that I'm here." Hari said in a hopeful tone.
"That depends solely on you, you have to be bound to this village, and promise not to flee to another village, we need all the manpower we can get. Our villages safety hangs in the balance, and if War breaks out, we have no way to defend ourself against strong ninja villages like Kumo, and Konoha, I must insure our future, add to the fact that the Wind Daimyo has favored jobs offers to Konoha, our military strength is dwindling, and we can barely fund our ninja programs, Kami help me, I'm voicing my problem to a kid that is to young for the intricacies of politics that his age to comprehend." the Kazekage voiced his concerns.
"Maybe you should listen to your gut more, tell me, how much money does this village need to get back on its feet, and gather resources as needed, as well as increase the program quality at the ninja academy, as well as the citizens of suna, or better yet, how much money does it take to fund a ninja for a long term war, and come up on top?." Hari said in a suggestive voice.
The Kazekage's impression on Hari as a naive kid was quickly replaced by a warrior with a steel gaze, that seems to stare at his soul. He felt that he had no choice but to answer the kid, no, the warrior's question. "God, I must be going crazy." said the Kazekage
"Our village would need thirty million ryo for it to acquire back its needed resources to stand up again, and 10 million for our shinobi programs, another ten million for the equipment and repairs for our shinobi tools. As for a long term war against the world we would need at least another one hundered million ryo at least." the Kazekage answered truthfully.
"Why, why was he answering a child, his answer came to him with stare that he received by the child as if anticipating his disbelief." thought the Kazekage.
"Very well, for this to work, you would have to trust a complete stranger, possibly a spy, or assassin sent after you. You will take me to your village vaults alone. The fate of your village rest on your hands" Hari gave an ultimatum.
"The Kazekage was baffled, this child, a potential assassin, or spy was testing him, mocking him for solutions his villages desperately needs. Between his life, or the village, truly what he said that the fate of my village rests in my hand. On one hand, I could be killed, and my village could fall to ruin, on the other hand, a child that speaks of whispers of a solution to his village needs, like a devil tempting him on his desires, then snatching his soul at the last possible minute. He must be crazy for doing this, but dear God if there was a 0.1 percent of success against 99.9 percent of failure, he would choose the 0.1 percent, all for his beloved village." the Kazekage reasoned.

The Kazekage swallowed his pride, and he might as well be signing his life away, and then said to the child.
"Very well, I will take you to our Village Vault,... alone. Anbu, this is in order from your kazekage, do not follow us." the Kazekage ordered.
The Kazekage then lead Hari to the vaults of the village at its underground bunker that is said to have survived since the first ninja war started.
"I'm flattered, that you would sign in your life away like that Kazekage-sama, and now here is your just desserts, Mwahahahahahahaha!." Hari laughed evily.
There it is, the signal he has been waiting for, he closed his eyes waiting for the intending strike to cut his head off, 1 second, 30 second, 1 minute, and the fatal blow did not come. What he heard was a crazy laughter of a madman, but something feels odd, the craziness was replaced with a joyous laughter, so he opened his eyes to see what had happened.
"That was funny, okay, maybe it was a morbid kind of funny, but funny none the less." the kid said in front of him.
The Kazekage sweardropped.
"Now where was I?, oh yes the deal, today, a new legend will be born, for today is the start where Suna will rise as the top ninja village." Hari declared.
With one swift motion in the air, hundreds, no, thousands of gold came raining down on the empty Vault, it was slowly but steadily being filled to the brim with giant gold bars.
The Kazekage could not believe his eyes, the answer to all his problems, the village's problems came literally falling down into his lap. The Kazekage had only one thing to do, he cried, he cried of happiness. His Village, his beloved war torn village is now saved. The work of an angel, no, a demon, no, A god, has given him, and his village a miracle.
"Now I have filled your Village Vaults with two hundred thousand large gold bars, one gold bar of this pure gold is at least worth ten thousand ryo as the lowest exchange rate, and if you can find the right buyer, I'm sure you can double it. Assuming that you sell this gold bars at the lowest amount of ten thousand ryo, you my friend, have two billion ryo at your disposal." Hari motioned to the gold bars exageratingly.
"The rest, solely depends on your capabilities my friend, but I'm sure the defeat of the war has honed your ninja senses for a chance to fight back to those arrogant fools who crushed this village's ideals, hopes, and dreams. Now is the time, the time of a new era, Grab it, Grab it with all your might, this Village Legend is about to unfold." said Hari.
"I thank you, as a village leader, and as a man, from the bottom of my heart I thank you. Please, if theres anything you need, don't hesitate to ask."
Hari then popped the question, no, he's not getting married, you readers sure have a crazy mind. No, what Hari asked was.
"I want to be able to protect Gaara, and help him control his Biju, I want to learn this village's techniques, so that I might help it in anyway I can. I also want to undergo the same training as Gaara." requested Hari.
"That all can be simply done my friend, the solution is actually pretty simple. I will adopt you, you see Gaara is my son, and you have a high chance of protecting him, and guiding him as his brother. It also helps cement your status in this village, but I'm curious, why would you want the same training for a jinchuuriki.?" the Kazekage asked.
"The answer is simple, as you recall the incident yesterday, where I barely stoped Shukaku from taking over, after ten hours of long exposure to shukaku's toxic chakra, and having survived it, the Biju's chakra seemed to have merged with mine, and made me a an artificial Jinchuuriki, or a pseudo Jinchuuriki." Hari answered while sands are swirling over him
The Kazekage jaws were gaping for a full five minutes, and then it turned into a full blown laughter. Not only has his village now has the means to fund a long-term war, and have a failsafe mechanism for their junchuuriki if it is attempting to break free, but now, his village has now an artificial jinchuuriki as well, who is as just as strong as the original, without the side effects of suddenly going rogue, and going into a killing spree, but a real live usable weapon that is loyal to his village. Truly a boon has descended in his village today. The Kazekage didn't even need to think, and agreed to Hari's requests.
Soon, Soon we will show the world the might of Suna.
