"Although there is nothing wrong with having another child, given the clan's current situation, it is not in our best interests." Mikoto remarked that she was aware that many important members of the clan were becoming frustrated with the current situation by this point. Since the Kyuubi incident, Konoha has marginalized their people more, which has caused them to become increasingly enraged.
In general, Fugaku didn't have a lot of issues with Konoha. He was indignant about how his clan had been handled, but he also recognized the reasons Konoha was so wary of them. He was making every effort to put his foot on both boats, but it was becoming more and more difficult.
"It will be fine. If push comes to shove, we will ask for help from this Aoto, since he was the one who started this whole incident." Fugaku said while flashing a cheeky grin. His family was just as significant as his clan.
He wouldn't sacrifice his family's happiness and well-being for spurious political reasons.
"So you really trust him that much?" Mikoto enquired.
"I don't really trust him because I think he knows more than he's willing to admit. But I have faith in his power. He is the only person who doesn't fear Konoha." Fugaku commented as he thought back on that crucial evening.
That evening, he played with Danzo and humiliated a shinobi of the kage level. And if that wasn't enough, Aoto made him look like a child in front of an adult. He was impressed by him even if he wasn't sure how he was doing it.
He would have more faith in him to protect his family than the clan as a whole. Mikoto didn't see what had gone down with Aoto when he faced her husband or Danzo but she trusted him, just like her husband. She merely wished for safety for their clan, family, and community and that everything would turn out okay.
----------------------------------------
Few days had passed since the time, and Fugaku had showed up the next day after John delivered the Viagra. Without saying a word, he promptly demanded the medication batch. Without much issue, the contract was signed. He demanded three times the cost of a Viagra prescription, and Fugaku agreed without so much as batting an eye.
Aoto wanted to ask if he had checked the efficiency of the tablet bust seeing nor argument against the price of the medicine he decided not to. Additionally, Fugaku seemed to be aware that Aoto was uncomfortable talking about the medication, so he kept the conversation to a minimum. He truly believed that the cost of Viagra was lower than he had anticipated, but it actually provided him with the motivation to raise the cost and increase his income.

He only had to worry about the logistics, and he had enough subordinates who were eager to handle this kind of task. Fugaku ultimately purchased the two Palicos for his children that had been on hold for a while after signing the contract. Sasuke was still an infant who was unable to walk, but his father was prepared to give him a Palico because he had observed how adorable and submissive they were to other shinobi in the village
He had discussed it with Kakashi, who was pretty straightforward and even gave him some advice on how to keep them. He acquired two more out of kindness. He kept one for himself and gave his wife the other. Aoto was delighted to get rid of an additional 4. He could only complete his mission in this manner.
Aoto, however, had a different kind of day today because a surprise visitor had arrived. It was Konan and she was still wearing the headband of the Sand.
"Hello."
"Oh.. Miss Konan.. You have arrived. I thought you will never come back." When he saw her, Aoto's eyes sparkled. Since she had demonstrated that she was a shinobi of the sand and it would be troublesome for future transactions, he believed she would never appear.
However, the issue of her appearing in another village's headband may have been resolved now that she was returned. Did Sasori join already? Aoto didn't remember at what time Sasori joined the Akatsuki, it should be after the third great ninja war.
But he didn't care about that.
"Sorry.. took a bit of time to give approvals." Konan expressed sincere regret.
"This shouldn't make you feel bad at all. You did everything you could to get the approval, and it appears that you did. So you'll be the major driver behind the manufacturing, or will someone else speak on behalf of the community and handle the logistics?" Asked Aoto.
"No.. I spent more time on this because I was the only one who was interested, so they gave me complete authority and let me close agreements, set up factories, handle logistics, and even hire men for this." With a hint of pride in her voice, Konan said. Aoto's face was beaming.
In order for her to never question him, he asked her this. Konan didn't know that Aoto actually knew about her identity and he was just playing along. Just so that he could get profits. He didn't care even if the money came from an enemy of Konoha.
If there was any chance for their animosity to end, it would be through effective communication and holding the wrong people accountable. But even so, it was a long way to go. Konan then brought out the paperwork and the approval. Even the Kazekage seal was on it. But Aoto noticed the seal. Not the fourth, but the third kazekage's seal was used.
"So Sasori has already joined." Since Sasori had taken the Third Kazekage hostage and turned him into a puppet, Aoto reasoned in his mind. When someone viewed the seal, they would typically ignore which Kage had given it because there was typically just a very slight difference between the seals of Kages.
Aoto, however, was curious, so he did notice the slight modification to the seal. But it made no difference. Since Konan got the manpower, he had got the ideas.
