Chapter 80: Shizune: Dami dami, dami yo (On sale, seeking first edition!) In reality, the mission issued by Xia Yan was to bring Tsunade to the Uchiha residence to treat Ringo Ameyuri. Although Tsunade's whereabouts were delayed for a while, she was eventually discovered by the Leaf Village ninjas. In order to complete this mission, they tried various methods to persuade Tsunade to return to the village. And then... They got beaten up so badly that they couldn't even recognize their own mothers. Tsunade didn't return to Konoha because she didn't want to see that place of sadness again. Thinking that they could influence a Kage-level decision? How is that possible! Provoked, Tsunade directly threw a punch.
No one died, after all, they were all colleagues from Konoha. But in the end, Shizune had to run over with a bitter smile to save them, otherwise there might be some lingering effects. The Konoha shinobi tried many times, and the Third Hokage secretly supported Xia Yan's mission, although he didn't directly provide money, he gave a lot of subsidies and created many conveniences. After all, the ninja world is in turmoil now, and as a Kage-level force, he didn't want to let Tsunade wander outside freely. But if she didn't want to, who could force a Kage-level ninja? In the end, all the missions failed, only the mission regarding Tsunade's location was completed by the ninjas. Xia Yan looked at the incompetence of the Konoha shinobi and could only directly go to seek medical treatment with Ringo Ameyuri. Fuchu Town. It is a small commercial town located at the intersection of several main roads, where merchants come and go to make money. Such a commercial town naturally has places for merchants and their entourages to spend money. EER..... A casino!
"So, the rumors were true after all. The legendary Sannin is actually here in this place..." Ringo Ameyuri's expression was strange. "Is she really the ninja from the legends?" The fame of the Sannin is even more formidable than that of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen that she aspired to become. "That's right, the strongest medical ninja in the ninja world is right here." Natsuhiko squinted his eyes, sensing the chakra inside. "Let's go, let's go in." Saying that, the two of them walked into the casino. Perhaps because the legendary 'big fat sheep' is here, the casino is crowded with people, but almost everyone is gathered around one place, holding up chips and cash, shouting continuously, their eyes bloodshot. And at the center of the gamblers, there is a very beautiful woman. She has light yellow twin tails, hanging down behind her, faintly outlining her exquisite figure.
Her skin is flawless and white, like sheep fat white jade. Her delicate face is now filled with excitement. And the most attractive thing is undoubtedly her pair of human weapons! Even Natsuhiko, a man who has seen a lot, couldn't help but focus his gaze on this place - mainly because it's too big! Surprisingly big! Belonging to the level where you can't see your own feet when you lower your head. Standing proudly, overlooking the heroes! As a Kage-level powerhouse, Ringo Ameyuri noticed Natsuhiko's gaze the first time. Then she couldn't help but lower her head and take a glance at herself. Hmm, how should I put it? Lowering her head, she can see everything, without any obstruction in her line of sight. "What are you looking at?" Ringo Ameyuri couldn't help but grit her teeth, one hand pinching Natsuhiko's waist. Although she didn't fall in love with Natsuhiko, she is still a woman after all! And she is your wife, carrying your child... Why are you staring at her all the time?
Of course, just take a look, Ringo Yuuri won't get jealous. But why are you only staring at other people's big things! What's the use of being big? It's not satisfying for oneself. On the other hand, being small can reduce obstacles, increase speed, and decrease the enemy's attack range, among other benefits... Clearly, being small is the most appropriate appearance for a ninja! A true female ninja strong person should be like me! That cow's fame must be exaggerated, she's definitely not a master, those two things are really affecting the battle! *cough* *cough* Hoshikage coughed. There's no way, big things always attract more attention from others. The two of them walked forward, although it was crowded here, with the strength of the two Kage-level individuals, they easily walked to the front. Tsunade glanced at Hoshikage and the others, as a Kage-level expert, she noticed something. But she didn't care. "Come on, I'll bet big, hurry up!" Tsunade was full of enthusiasm.
If it weren't for the bitter expression on Shizune's face next to her, people who didn't know would probably think she was the big winner. The next second after Tsunade spoke. Numerous gamblers shouted without hesitation. "I bet small!" "I also bet small!" "I've bet my entire net worth here!" "Mingzi, once I win this bet, we'll have enough money to get married!" "Great, my gambling debt has been cleared, everything left is profit!" Clap! Clap! Clap!
Countless chips were piled up on the small table, quickly forming a small mountain. Xia Yan smiled faintly and casually took out some chips, placing them on the table. "Xia Yan?" Lin Qin frowned. In fact, this kind of gambling doesn't earn much money. With Tsunade, the big fat sheep, the house doesn't play with high stakes anymore. It's a direct mutual bet between the two sides. Otherwise, the house would lose everything. Although the gamblers were in high spirits and could indeed make some money, this money shouldn't matter to Xia Yan! However, Xia Yan didn't answer. He just smiled lightly. "It's about to start!" the dealer shouted. "114!" The gamblers laughed loudly. "Haha! We're making a fortune!" "No wonder he's the big fat sheep!" "This is heaven's way of making me rich!" "Damn it! Did I lose again?" Tsunade gritted her teeth, then regained her spirit. "It's okay, I'll turn the tables in the next ten rounds!" "Hurry up, hurry up!" Lin Qin: So, is this guy really the strongest medical ninja in the ninja world? Well, if we describe Tsunade's current state with different adjectives, such as 'unaffected,' 'firm belief,' 'perseverance,' maybe it does have some meaning. But this doesn't really seem like a master! Shizune cried: "Wuwuwu..."
The little pig in her arms kept whimpering: "Tonton..." And it went on for a few more rounds.
The money in Tsunade's box is decreasing at a visible speed. After a few more rounds. Finally, it's all gone! "Darn it, no more money...." Tsunade pouted. "Alright, let's stop playing for today." "Shizune, what about..." "Tsunade-sama, are you not going to play anymore?" Haya suddenly spoke up after remaining silent until now. "I understand, it's too small of a game, not very interesting." "How about we bet big?" As he said that, he lightly kicked the box at his feet. The poorly locked iron box immediately fell over, revealing stacks of banknotes. So much money!!! Countless gamblers' eyes lit up. Looking at these piles of money, it's probably worth a billion, right? Tsunade frowned. "Kid, I don't have any money now." "It's okay, I'll give you some," Haya smiled. "Tsunade-sama seems to be in a hurry to leave, probably has something urgent, and I have disturbed Tsunade-sama now, delaying Tsunade-sama's time. I should make it up to you." Saying that, he moved his foot and handed the money box to Tsunade. "The money here will be considered as compensation for Tsunade-sama playing with me." "I just hope you can play with me for an hour, is that alright?" Haya smiled, looking sincere. Tsunade's eyes lit up. "Okay!" She instinctively reached out her hand to stop him, but halfway through, she pulled it back. A billion for an hour of play... Looks like this wave is not a loss!
"Anyway, even if it's Tsunade-sama, it's impossible for her to lose one billion in just one hour, right?" Shizune thought to herself, feeling delighted. "It looks like I can have something good to eat today, and I can also pay off the debt to the innkeeper!" Twenty minutes later. Shizune and Ringo were dumbfounded. Twenty minutes!
One billion! How did you lose like this? "Damn it! The money is gone just like that?" Tsunade said, looking displeased. "This one billion isn't much at all!" Xiayan smiled faintly. Money is just a number. As long as you gamble big, you can even lose it all in one go... "Alright." Tsunade nonchalantly threw the empty money box towards Xiayan. "Since the money is gone, I won't play anymore." However, Xiayan just smiled. "Tsunade-sama, you're not playing anymore? But I've already paid for an hour of your time!" "I don't have any money." Tsunade squinted her eyes. If this guy tried to force her, she would immediately show him the strength of a Kage-level powerhouse! Xiayan said, "It's okay, I'll lend you... Give me ten thousand taels, consider it the interest for borrowing one billion from me, but you have to give me the interest right now." Saying that, he stuffed all the money Tsunade had just lost into the money box and handed it over. Tsunade's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "In that case, I can play a little longer... Shizune, get the money." It would be considered lucky if you could borrow money normally and return it thirteen out of ten times. One in ten thousand interest? Such a thing would never happen even in dreams! Besides, she still had ten thousand taels of small money reserved for meals... Yes, Shizune had set it aside. "Tsunade-sama!" Shizune suddenly panicked. If they lost this, they wouldn't be able to eat! "Don't worry, Shizune. I'm definitely going to win this round!" Ringo, who was beside them, said nothing.
So, who gave you the courage, Liang Jingru? Shizune tried to stop it, but in the end, Tsunade still got the money. After all, there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides. "And after all, it's only ten thousand taels." Shizune tried to comfort herself. "It's okay, we still have over thirty thousand taels in our hands. We can still afford to eat and stay." Ten minutes later. "Damn it, how come we're out of money again... This one billion is not enough!" "It's okay, I'll lend you another ten thousand taels with interest." Shizune: "!!!" "Tsunade, think twice!" Shizune panicked and desperately held onto the money bag. "This is our last meal money!" "Don't worry! I'll win it all back for you!" Tsunade confidently said, "You have to believe in my abilities!"
I believe in your abilities too much, so I absolutely can't give it to you! However, that was useless. Five minutes later. "We're out of money again..." "I'll lend you, also with ten thousand taels of interest." Shizune looked desperate. "Dame dame, dame yo, Tsunade-sama..." One hour later. Tsunade couldn't produce a single penny anymore. Even when Xia Yan gradually lowered the interest to one thousand taels, one hundred taels, and even one tael... She still couldn't come up with it.
Truly drained to the last drop. "Tsk, such a rare opportunity..." Tsunade bit her fingernail, her face filled with unwillingness. Such low interest rates, as long as I win the gamble, it will be a complete turnaround! Unfortunately, luck wasn't on my side, I didn't win a single time... "Never mind, let's go since we don't have any money... Shizune, let's go-- Shizune?" Tsunade looked at Shizune, whose soul seemed to be floating beside her mouth, and shook her shoulder. Finally, the soul returned to its own body. R... Tsunade: "Shizune, we should leave." Shizune's face was blank: "It's gone..." "What's gone?" Tsunade frowned, "We should leave, I'm starting to get hungry." "We don't have any money..." Shizune's voice was ethereal, as if she had lost her spirit. Tsunade casually said, "Just to eat something, we must have some money, right?" "We don't have any, we really don't have a single penny left, you've lost all the money!" Shizune burst into tears. Before this, there were times when Tsunade lost all her money as well. But at least they still had some spare change for meals, after all, just taking out one or two bills from the gambling capital would be enough. Tsunade wouldn't mind—she still respected ordinary people.
Especially those who were extraordinary but never cheated, which many casino owners liked. And now... They were truly penniless. "Wuwuwu, what are we going to do for dinner today? Both of us and Tonton will go hungry, and also the innkeeper, I promised to pay the owed room fee today..." "And the restaurant where we had credit yesterday, and the one the day before..." Shizune cried, sobbing loudly.
