Chapter Ninety-Six: Three with One, I Can't Afford It!
A few days ago, inside a casino in the Land of Birds. X
Shizune held a pink piggy and stood quietly at the door of a high-end private room in the casino.
In the private room, Tsunade, dressed in a dark green shirt, sat at the gaming table, absentmindedly looking at the gambling equipment in front of him.
The boss, who is the banker, enthusiastically introduces her to this fresh gambling set of cards.
The owner is a middle-aged man in his mid-forties, and the skin on his face is well maintained.
"It's a deck of cards, fifty-four in a deck.
Legend has it that this card first appeared in a ship floating from a foreign country in the port of Yuno Kuni.
The workers of the port of Yunokuni board the strange ship, only to find that the sailors on board have mysteriously died. ”
Tsunade picked up a card, looked at the Kabuki-like figure dressed on it with a weird smile on his face, and said casually:
"Didn't you encounter pirates, or mist ninja?"
The boss smiled and shook his head and said:
"It doesn't seem to be, there is not a single scar on the sailors' bodies, and even the expressions on their faces before death are no different from those of ordinary sailors, and the cause of death cannot be detected at all."
Tsunade smiled disdainfully, propping her face with one wrist and drinking from the cup with the other.
"That's the biggest anomaly, isn't it?
I've never heard of anything that makes people feel it even at the moment of death. ”
At this moment, another person at the table spoke:
"There are many more mysterious things in this world, Tsunade-sama.
We should still be in awe, don't you say? ”
Tsunade frowned slightly, and glanced at the young man indifferently.
It was a young man with his long hair tied high behind his head in a ponytail, and he noticed Tsunade's gaze.
raised his head calmly, nodded at her indifferently, and his words and demeanor were moderate, neither humble nor arrogant.
The boss smiled and took the whole deck of cards in his palm, and without seeing any movement of his hands, the cards were divided into two dozen as if they had received an order, and quickly overlapped each other.
Tsunade watched the boss's movements, sighed softly and said:
"Obviously, with such a high talent, you can use Chakra to this point without systematic training......"
The boss lowered his head disappreciatively, picked up the shuffled cards and began to deal cards to the three of them.
"Everyone has his own ambitions, and he can't force them.
However, it is precisely because of the bloody struggle of my parents that I have the opportunity to choose my life freely. ”
Tsunade nodded with a smile and said:
"So, what's the name of the game?"
The boss raised his head and said with helplessness in his eyes:
"I originally named the game Swift as the Wind.
This is because this is a game in which the fastest hand is played and the first hand is revealed.
Oh yes......"
The young man on the side took over with an expressionless face:
"But my father's ideas are too high and low.
How can someone who prefers kabuki and ukiyo-e linger in a place like ours?
Most of the people who come and go in the casino are people who love shochu and dancing girls......"
Before he finished speaking, the young man of Konoha, the noble son of the turbid world, was knocked over by a punch from Tsunade.
"Little ghost, I've put up with you for a long time......"
Tsunade, still clenched his white fists tightly, looked at the young man who got up from the ground with an unkind expression.
The young man patted his clothes and continued to kneel at the table as if nothing had happened, but one of his panda eyes had betrayed him deeply......
The boss smiled and said:
"Now, some gamblers call this game a fast run.
Recently, however, there has been a new name for Dou Konoha. ”
Tsunade looked at the boss with some surprise and scolded with a smile:
"Why is that?
Could it be that the reputation of the Konoha ninja in the country of birds has reached this point? ”
The young man pointed to the location of himself, the boss, and Tsunade and said:
"Sand Hidden Village, Iwain Village, and Konoha Hidden Village, these are the three large countries near the Bird Country."
He looked at Tsunade and said:
"There is no doubt that you are the strongest, and only when the two of us join together can we have the strength to fight Konoha."
As he spoke, the boss had finished dealing the cards, and the three of them gathered the cards in their hands.
Tsunade looked at the good cards in his hand and smiled confidently.
"In that case, then I'll be a good one to be Konoha!"
She reached out and flipped up the three hole cards in the center of the table, revealing their faces.
A pair of similar-looking women of different suits appear on the deck, and a pattern of circles shrinking inwards is printed in the upper left corner of the two cards.
And on the last card, the same woman is printed.
However, her appearance was different from ordinary people, she had two horns on her head, her long light-colored hair draped behind her, and a pair of pure white eyes under her eyebrows.
"This ...... This is?! ”
Tsunade looked at the characters on the cards, and the smile on his face was put away.
She looked at the boss coldly, pointed to the three hole cards and asked:
"What do you know?
Who told you this?! ”
The boss stretched out his hand to point to the two "Qs" and said:
"The eye of reincarnation, the eye of the legendary six immortals, right?"
He pointed to the greatest card in the fifty-four deck and said:
"Goddess of the Moon, Kaguya-hime."
A cold sweat oozed from Tsunade's forehead, and she remembered the secret letter that Jiraiya had sent to her not long ago.
"Tsunade, the hatred between you, the Senju clan and Shimura Danzo will be left to me.
I've asked about Watergate, but it's not his or Mr. Apefei's instructions.
Tuan Zang does have a way to die, not only does he have no bottom line for Konoha's companions, but he also plots against your blood.
Moreover, he also extended his hand to my three disciples.
You remember, in the Land of Rain, those three children I taught for three years.
One of them, his eyes are the legendary Eye of God Reincarnation.
Therefore, in public and private, I will cooperate with Orochimaru to remove the rotten roots of this wooden leaf!
Don't resent the teacher, think about us and Orochimaru, although he also has the blood of innocents on his hands, can you and I really attack him without any scruples?
The same goes for teachers!
How could he have imagined that the Tuanzang Society, who had been taught by the second generation of adults since he was a child, would attack the Thousand Hands Clan?
If...... The commotion I made this time was so great that I had already informed Watergate and declared me a traitor.
I hope that if that day comes, you will be able to go back to Konoha.
It's your home, Tsunade.
And teacher, think about it, if the three of us really become traitors, you will also be exiled and unwilling to go back.
That old man, how painful and self-reproaching he would be......
Just this once, even if it's just this once in my life, listen to me. ”
She stopped remembering and looked at the end of the hand at the table.
The boss had only two cards left in his hand, still smiling at himself.
"Tsunade-hime, remember.
No matter what choice you make today, we of the Senju Clan don't owe Konoha Hidden Village anything!
If there is something indebted, it is also owed to us by Konoha. ”
Tsunade looked at the man in front of him who was not a few years older than himself:
"Uncle ......"
The seemingly ordinary casino owner stood up, and the eldest son next to him picked up a coat to cover him.
The boss turned his back and looked out the window, and the coat behind his back was embroidered with the crest of the Thousand Hands Clan.
"I am also the youngest son of Senju Tsuruma and Senju Mito.
My father and uncle gave their lives for Konoha!
The talented clansmen shed the last drop of blood for Konoha for more than twenty years......
Even if it was me, it was my mother's uncle who begged me to be the second Hokage, so I stayed away from Konoha since I was a child......"
Memories kill
After Senju Mito became the first Pillar Force of the Nine-Tails, he was made with the unremitting efforts of Lord Tsuruma in his later years...... Ahem, um, pregnant again.
This is also the reason why when it is clear that the female pillar force is born in the future, the sealing technique in the body will be loosened.
After the pillar was overused, he suffered from a hemorrhagic illness caused by the overuse of Mu Dun, and eventually died early.
On the day of the funeral, Mito put his arms around Kotsuna, who was asleep from crying, and looked at the door sitting opposite him.
"I haven't made any requests since I married into the Thousand Hands Clan.
Even if I was asked to risk my life to become a Nine-Tails Pillar Force, I did it willingly.
Today, I have something to ask for. ”
Thousand Hands nodded and said:
"Speak, please."
Mito pointed to the ignorant young son beside him, and said to Tsunade in his arms:
"Let these two children, along with those who are not qualified to become ninjas, leave Konoha and return to live in the land of the Thousand Hands Clan."
He frowned and said:
"Those people are fine, I think so.
But these two children, sister-in-law.
They all have good qualifications, and they can grow up to be ninjas in their own right. ”
Mito looked down at the little granddaughter in his arms, tears dripping down Tsunade's sleeping cheeks.
"It's because of their talent that I don't want them to become ninjas......
You and I both know that the future of the ninja world will not be as peaceful as Tsuruma imagined.
The more powerful the one, the more often they will suffer from war. ”
She pointed to her young son beside her and said:
"This kid bears the purest bloodline of the Thousand Hands and the Vortex Clan.
I don't want him to learn the art of killing from a young age!
We've already paid enough for Konoha, and as the patriarch, don't you think about the inheritance of the Thousand Hands Clan?! ”
looked at the excited eldest sister-in-law, and was silent for a long time.
Yes, do we really want to dedicate our youth and life to the village, and to our children and grandchildren?
After lingering for a long time in the position of the patriarch and the village chief, he closed his eyes and said with a long sigh:
"Let Nakaya leave Konoha, Tsunade stay."
"Why ......"
Kazuma opened his eyes, looked at Mito sternly, and said:
"Because Nakaya is also a boy!
At the same time, he is also the eldest brother and your youngest son!
As you said, he has the best and purest blood of the Thousand Hands and Vortex clans flowing through him!
Needless to say, I've made up my mind. ”
The current patriarch of the Senju clan named Senjuya turned around, looked at Tsunade and said:
"Remember! The Thousand Hands are just seclusion, not decline!
Tsunade-hime, as the princess of our Thousand-Handed Clan, your hatred is the shame of our Thousand-Handed Clan! ”
He clapped his hands, and under Shizu's surprised gaze, a dozen ninjas armed to the teeth came to the door and knelt down on one knee.
"My father expanded his influence to the country of birds, not just to watch a show.
In the Xiao organization and the rain ninja, there are people we have placed.
Even, the ninja equipment and blades produced by the Xiao organization are the largest buyers......"
Nakaya's eldest son glanced at his father with a little admiration, and continued:
"That's us."
Thousand hands also looked at the group of ninjas outside the door, the gentle smile on his face had already faded, and he said in a deep voice:
"Tsunade-hime, you remember.
If Konoha doesn't support your revenge, then there's no need for you to go back to that place.
Here, the Thousand Hands will always be your home.
The shame of the thousand hands of the forest will be washed away with our own hands!
These ninjas behind you are the young descendants of our clan that have been cultivated over the years.
Ninjas of the Thousand Hands Clan, listen to me!
The guards are in front of Princess Tsunade and go to the Land of Rain.
Take revenge on Konoha's Shimura Danzo and wash away our shame! ”
"No!"
……
In the forest on the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire, the member of the Akatsuki Organization was just about to transmit early warning information to the organization through his unique rat-like psychic beast.
A kunai appeared from behind him and pressed against the back of his neck.
Kakashi held no bitterness in his hand and said softly:
"Stop what you're doing now."
Around him and this member of the Xiao organization, one by one Konoha shadows appeared.
A wry smile tugged at the corner of the mouth of this ordinary Xiao Organization member.
Is this the end for me?
I still haven't been able to ...... with Yahiko-san
The day I saw the sun shine on this land.
A detonating charm slipped from his cuff and into his hand, just as he was about to detonate......
"Quack"
A frog leaps high in front of the group.
The frog opened its mouth, and a pair of large hands stretched out from it, followed by a head of white hair......
"Wait, stop!"
Jiraiya crawled out of the frog's mouth with a body of slime.
This time, he was no longer in the mood to show off his spicy-eyed debut, but said to the member of the Xiao organization:
"I'm a teacher of Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato.
Don't act rashly! ”
Then he took a scroll from his bosom and handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi put away the painlessness and took the scroll and opened it.
After reading it for a moment, he handed the scroll to the vice-captain of the operation for confirmation.
The two nodded and knelt on one knee toward Jiraiya.
"According to the instructions of the four generations of adults, this operation.
It is under the full command of you, Lord Jiraiya. ”
Jiraiya nodded, and said to the member of the Xiao organization who was already confused:
"Quickly inform Yahiko that this armistice covenant is a trap, don't go!"
……
At the scene of the so-called armistice pact, Sanshoyu Hanzo, Onoki and Shimura Danzo were separated from each other, followed by their respective ninjas.
What seems to be a powerful alliance is actually full of precautions against each other.
They are nothing more than hunters who have come together driven by interests......
Quietly waiting for the innocent lamb to step into the trap.
Danzou looked at Tsuchikage Onoki and smiled and said one last attempt:
"Three generations of Tsuchikage, my trading conditions are still valid.
We, Konoha, are willing to buy that reincarnation eye. ”
Onoki smiled disdainfully and said:
"That's the legendary Vision of God!
Give you one Konoha, you should be content, Danzang.
Purchase? What do you want to come up with to buy?
If it's money, then it's better for you to be disrespectful. ”
Danzou glanced at Onoki deeply and said:
"What if it's a writing wheel?
Two, as well as, the technology of transplanting the writing wheel eye. ”
Behind Sanshoyu Hanzo, several masked rain ninjas returned to the team, and they brought back a young woman in a black robe with a purple face.
Hanzo looked at Xiao Nan, who had passed out after being hit by his diluted poisonous mist, and nodded with satisfaction.
However, he couldn't notice the smile of the captain of the returning rain ninja under the iron mask.
……
A few hours ago, the Rain Country Dawn Organization's Seventh District was in the civilian ghetto.
Xiao Nan came to the surviving civilian who was groaning, and just wanted to check his injuries, but was stunned by a purple poisonous mist.
At this time, although she was taught by Jiraiya, she had developed her own series of paper ninjutsu.
However, because he has been in charge of the logistics of the Xiao organization, there are too few opportunities to go out to kill the enemy, and he has been kept by Yahiko and Nagato.
Her most important thing as a ninja is that she has so little experience that she falls into a simple trap.
Behind her, several rain ninjas wearing iron gas masks cautiously walked up to her, just about to bring her back to Hanzo-sama to resume her life.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps not far away, and several rain ninjas immediately formed a formation of vigilance.
Dozens of kunai and shuriken shot through the rain and towards them!
Several people hurriedly took out the kunai they had with them and tried their best to resist.
A figure shuttled through a large number of shurikens and kunai on his side, and walked towards the rain ninja while avoiding the flying ninja with ease.
The clogs made a crisp sound when they stepped on the ground, but the ** feet with bright red nail polish on the clogs began to exert force little by little.
When the rain ninjas reacted, a yellow-haired woman in a green shirt was already running towards them.
The white, seductive-looking feet left a deep footprint on the ground that shattered all around with each step.
Captain Yunin, who was the leader, swallowed with difficulty, and he opened the lid of the poison gas cylinder in his hand, ready to throw it at the woman who was rushing at him.
When he looked up, he saw that the woman had leapt high towards him, a white fist and a pair of trembling orbs growing larger and larger in his eyes......
"Monster Punch!"
More than a dozen ninjas wearing armor with strips of cloth printed with the emblem of the Thousand Hands clan tied on their foreheads walked behind Tsunade in silence, looking at Tsunade in front of him, who was healing the poisoned Xiaonan, waiting for her order.
"They just fainted, and the rest is up to you."
The thousand-armed ninjas drew their swords one after another, or they were not ready to do it.
"Wait, Tsunade."
Not far away, a hoarse voice came into everyone's ears.
Tsunade turned his head to look, and Orochimaru slowly walked towards everyone.
"You're still so breathless, didn't you say yes.
Is Tuanzang's life mine? ”
Tsunade snorted lightly, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Who knows if you can succeed if this guy comes alone."
Orochimaru stretched out a finger and shook his head and said:
"Who told you that I was alone?"
"Could it be?!
Madara that guy, too? ”
"yes, that guy belongs to the character who is uncomfortable for a moment when he is free."
Under Tsunade's surprised gaze, white humanoids grew on the ground around him.
The ninjas of the Thousand Hands clan drew their swords and guarded around Tsunade.
"Don't worry, it's Madara's subordinate."
A group of Bai Jue inserted their hands into the body of the rain ninja on the ground, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, they turned into the appearance of the rain ninja little by little.
A white jue beside Orochimaru followed him to Tsunade's side, stretched out his hand to Xiao Nan, and then little by little turned into Xiao Nan with a face of poisoning.
"Now, it's my subordinate.
They're capable, aren't they? ”
Tsunade smiled, remembering the words that her little uncle had taught her a few days earlier in a game called "Dou Konoha":
Three belts and one, Shimura group collection......
Do you want to afford it? r
