Uehara tossed and turned all night.
No one could sleep peacefully after losing millions of Ryo overnight.
He just wanted to complete two side missions, instead, he lost all his money. What’s more embarrassing was that he lost his money to Tsunade.
It would be a stain on his image.
In the future, when he became the big boss behind the scenes, wouldn’t Tsunade comment, “Isn’t that the guy who lost millions to me when gambling? Is his name Uehara Naraku?”
This… where would his mysterious image go?
“Forget it. No one is perfect.”
“Senju Hashirama was brain-dead, Uchiha Madara had prostatitis, so this is a trivial matter.
Tsunade also has a few more weird side missions. The rewards for the missions aren’t low, but they look a little bit more gentle…”
Uehara murmured a few words in a daze in the middle of the night, inexplicably dreaming of Konan.
Konan’s face no longer had the gentleness it used to have and was replaced with a cold look, as she rebuked him with a dark look, “Naraku, did you learned to gamble?”
Behind Konan stood Pain, “Jiraiya-sensei taught us that we must never associate with gamblers.”
“And this kid Uehara still bet with Tsunade. He was either seduced by Tsunade’s beauty, or he wanted to cheat Tsunade’s money… Don’t you ever wonder why Tsunade, despite being so beautiful, is still single? It’s because she’s a gambler!”
A tall man was standing behind Pain, but Uehara couldn’t make out his face. Judging from his voice and outline, it was most likely Jiraiya.
His dream ended with Kami no Shisha no Jutsu (Paper Person of God Technique), Chibaku Tensei (Planetary Devastation), and Senpo: Goemon (Sage Art: Goemon) collectively slamming into Uehara. In the end, the Great Demon King Uehara had been defeated the heroes Konan, Pain, and Jiraiya with Tsunade’s support.
It’s a messy dream that contains the elements of nightmares, sweet dreams, and spring dreams.
Uehara got up from the bed and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
Someone knocked on the door, and the voice of Kisame came from outside, “Should we continue our journey today, or stay in Yugakure for another day? I prepare another five million Ryo for you…”
“…let’s continue traveling today!”
Uehara opened the door abruptly and looked at Kisame with an unhappy face, “No one else knows that I lost to Tsunade yesterday, right?”
“…I know what I should know.”
Kisame tilted his head towards the row of people beside him.
Haku covered his mouth in astonishment.
Uehara clenched his fists abruptly and looked at everyone present, “You will speak a word of what happened here, understood?”
Kisame nodded with a smile, and the others also responded, failing to understand what was wrong with Uehara.
Naturally, Uehara did not tell them.
He had to act as a perfect disciple in front of Konan-sensei. He mustn’t make Konan displeased before he became a full member of the Akatsuki.
At the entrance to the Yugakure.
Uehara’s team happened to meet Tsunade, Shizune, and her pet, a little pink pig, as they left the village.
Tsunade’s eyes narrow slightly, and she looked at a group of strange-looking people behind Uehara and suddenly smiled, “Morning, kid! Are you leaving the Yugakure too?”
Uehara glances at Tsunade then turned his head and passed her, ignoring the blonde ninja.
The others follow Uehara and pass Tsunade cautiously.
Tsunade called to Uehara, a little displeased, but when he saw that he didn’t respond, she chuckled and said, “When you were with me last night, you were as tame as a cat. Yet you refuse to respond to me after spending the night together?”
Shizune’s face blushed and waved to stop Tsunade’s suggestive words, “Don’t talk like that! That little guy is still a minor!”
Tsunade patted Shizune’s shoulder and pushed her aside, but her eyes were slightly solemn, “If I am not mistaken, those people behind that little devil, some of them were members of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.”
Shizune was a little puzzled.
Tsunade patted her head and smiled confidently, “That kid’s identity is not simple. We might even win more travel expenses from him!”
“That kid looked like a chick, how could I lose?”
“Don’t say such a thing! And it’s too dangerous. Didn’t Tsunade-sama say that he has some of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist? If they get angry…”
“Don’t worry. I have absolute confidence.”
Ever since Tsunade was exposed to gambling, apart from winning from Senju Hashirama, she had never met anyone from whom she would win money. How could she let him leave so easily?
Regardless, she was going to leave Yugakure today. If she didn’t win, you didn’t win!
There was something else Tsunade did not tell Shizune. She could tell that that kid’s betting style was very interesting, he was not like a normal gambler in the slightest!
His style was very similar to hers…
As long as that little guy wanted to win, as long as he could win once, it would not matter how many times he lost!
Tsunade took out a banknote and continued to speak loudly towards Uehara, “Hey, kid, do you need a few hundred Ryo for travel expenses?”
Uehara’s face became hard to look at.
Kisame next to him grasped the handle of Samehada, but Uehara waved his hand to stop his actions, “…don’t bother with her.”
Accompanied by Tsunade’s light shout, a banknote was thrown in the direction of Uehara, and his fingers easily caught its fingers!
Uehara finally couldn’t help turn his head and looked at the beautiful blonde ninja standing at the entrance of Yugakure.
Tsunade’s fist rested on her chin as she looked at Uehara with a smile, “If you don’t have money to play with me, I don’t mind using IOUs!”
After she finished speaking, Tsunade licked the corner of her mouth.
Tsunade’s posture was extremely sexy, it was enough to make people too embarrassed to look at her.
What the hell was this woman doing!
He was just a twelve-year-old kid!
“You guys wait for me for a while…”
Uehara finally couldn’t bear it anymore. He wasn’t actually provoked, he only wanted to get the system’s side mission’s reward.
Kisame’s small eyes filled with doubt!
However, seeing Uehara’s outstretched palm, Kisame still put a sealed scroll into Uehara’s hand.
Uehara suspected that Tsunade cheated!
According to common sense, beating Tsunade when gambling should be the easiest side mission. Right now, it felt more difficult than killing her!
Mangetsu raised his head hesitatingly said, “Uehara-sama, Tsunade-sama is one of the legendary Sannin, no matter her identity or strength, it was not suitable for us to get into conflict with her…”
Ninjas respect Tsunade very much.
Tsunade’s promotion of a full-time medical ninja had greatly reduced the casualties, and it surpassed her identity as one of Konoha’s ninja.
“But she’s provoking me!”
Uehara squeezed the scroll in his hand abruptly and looked at Tsunade in the distance coldly, “You all go first. Kimimaro will stay. I will not stand for her arrogance. I’m not unlucky!”
