Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 15 The Legendary Fat Sheep

War breaks out again.

Unlike the Third Shinobi World War, this war only involves Konoha and Kumogakure.

Moreover, it was mainly exploratory.

The last invasion of Kumogakure failed because Minato Namikaze single-handedly stopped the AB duo, namely the Fourth Raikage A and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee.

But now Minato Namikaze has passed away unexpectedly.

Unable to contain themselves any longer, the Hidden Cloud Village launched an attack.

If Konoha Village, having lost Minato Namikaze, fails to stop them, then they will naturally make a huge profit.

Even if we don't manage to take a bite out of the fat, it's not a big deal; we can just negotiate.

In any case, Konoha Village is unlikely to stand firm and fight to the death with Kumogakure.

According to the original story, this war will last for two to three years.

The reason Natsume remembers it so clearly is that the Hidden Cloud Village, which came to negotiate, caused a major incident.

Their leader attempted to steal Hinata Hyuga, the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, but was killed by Hiashi Hyuga.

Using this as a reason, Kumogakure demanded that Konoha hand over the killer, or they would launch another war.

Ultimately, Hizashi Hyuga, a member of the Hyuga branch family, sacrificed himself in place of his brother, thus quelling the incident.

Short Book Street.

A den of iniquity not far from Konoha Village.

In eight words, it encompasses all the vices: eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and prostitution.

A place that will definitely not disappoint.

Natsume was on the street, looking around.

Compared to the rebuilt Konoha Village, Tanabata Town is quite prosperous.

Various vendors, izakayas, casinos, and a young woman standing at the door in disheveled clothes.

In such cold weather, many people want to warm them with their own bodies.

Tsunade, however, paid no attention to anything, carrying a red box in one hand and holding Natsume's hand in the other.

Knowing the way well, they eventually stopped in front of a casino.

"Natsume, use your transformation technique to change your appearance."

Tsunade stopped, released his hand, and said, "Given your childish appearance, they won't let you gamble."

Natsume nodded, used his transformation technique, and suddenly became a young man in his thirties.

"This face isn't bad at all."

Tsunade looked him over and asked, "Who is he?"

"have no idea."

Natsume casually replied, "He's a stranger I just saw on the street."

Actually, no.

He transformed into Chow Yun-fat.

At this moment, the classic God of Gamblers background music should start playing.

"let's go."

Tsunade opened the door, and immediately all eyes fell on her.

The casino owner, who was in charge, noticed her necklace and his expression changed slightly: "Could it be that esteemed person?"

"Who is it?"

The croupier in a cheongsam standing nearby asked with a hint of doubt, "Is she very famous?"

"idiot!"

The casino owner glared at her. "If you're in this business, how can you not know her name? She's the legendary big fat sheep!"

By the end, unable to contain his joy, he burst out laughing.

Tsunade opened the box without a second thought, revealing the money inside, and said enthusiastically, "Exchange it all for chips!"

"Okay!" the casino owner replied enthusiastically.

Everyone in the gambling world knows that this fat sheep always loses at gambling.

The money-giving party is here!

The chips were quickly exchanged, totaling 150,000 taels.

Not many, but not few either.

If it were a ninja mission, the reward would be roughly equivalent to that of a B-rank mission.

Of course, the mission rewards are also divided between the ninja village and teammates, so you can't get all of them yourself.

To get 150,000, you need to complete at least three or four B-level missions.

However, Tsunade is one of the legendary Sannin, so completing missions is an easy and enjoyable thing for her.

If she hadn't gambled so often, she could have lived a very comfortable life.

You can learn this by referring to Jiraiya and Orochimaru.

The former was in the ninja world, but drifted away and lost contact.

The latter spends huge sums of money on scientific research.

"Give half to my apprentice, so he can have a go too."

Tsunade waved her hand and said.

The casino owner glanced at Natsume and smiled.

The apprentice of Big Fat Sheep is naturally also Big Fat Sheep.

Double happiness!

Natsume received 80,000 taels of silver and casually found a seat to sit down.

There are many different games available at casinos.

However, at Natsume's suggestion, Tsunade only played games similar to dice this time.

The rules are simple.

If you win, double your bet.

If you lose, you hand over your bet to the house.

Theoretically speaking, the probability is fifty percent.

However, this probability only applies when there is a large amount of data.

Even after dozens or hundreds of rounds, the probability is hard to maintain at 50%.

In addition, the casino will take a 5% cut of the winner's turnover.

It's very difficult to lose money.

The dealer shook the dice cup, and after a moment, placed it on the gambling table, saying, "Please place your bets."

Tsunade hesitated for two seconds, then threw down three chips, which was three thousand taels. She bet small.

Natsume then placed eight chips and bet on big.

The reason he didn't suppress it all was that he wanted to test whether Tsunade was really that wicked.

Open the drying bowl, six, five, five.

Congratulations to the customer who placed the big bet!

The dealer said politely.

Tsunade was not worried but happy.

Although she lost three thousand taels, Natsume won much more.

She was addicted to gambling.

One reason is because of my hobby.

Secondly, I want to forget the sad things from the past.

She didn't actually care about losing money.

But Natsume is different.

Tsunade now treats him like a younger brother, which is why she cooperates with him in gambling.

Actually, I'm quite happy.

But while she's happy, some people aren't.

Casino owner.

Are you two trying to exploit a bug with me?

Natsume's behavior is not secretive.

After a few times, other gamblers followed suit.

The casino owner's face grew increasingly grim.

Actually, we didn't lose money, but we earned less than usual.

Watching others make money is more painful than killing him.

"Yay!"

Tsunade counted her money; in just a few hours, she had won 100,000 taels.

This is absolutely unprecedented.

Although she didn't care about the money, she was still very excited when she saw the extra money.

"Let's go, let's continue."

Tsunade, pulling Natsume along, excitedly headed to the next casino.

dusk.

Natsume looked at the bankbook and was very satisfied.

In one day, he earned a million taels of silver.

It's equivalent to undertaking an extremely dangerous and time-consuming S-level mission.

"Natsume, you're young, how about I save it for you first?"

Tsunade's lips curved slightly as her gaze swept over the bankbook.

Wait, why does this sound so familiar?

Natsume recalled that when he was a child, his mother used to say similar things, but she would target his New Year's money.

He quickly shook his head and said, "I'll keep it myself."

Although it's to accompany Tsunade, I can't miss out on the money I should earn.

Besides, his organization needs money too.

Seeing his nervous expression, Tsunade patted his head and chuckled, "Then keep it."

She was indeed worried about ordinary children.

But Natsume is smarter and more sensible.

And the fact that he was able to earn so much money is indeed thanks to him.

Let's try again tomorrow.

Tsunade was clearly unaware of the problem.

But it's not a big problem.

You can use a transformation technique.

The reason we're not using it today is because Tsunade always uses her true form when gambling.

Otherwise, the legendary title of "Big Fat Sheep" wouldn't have spread so widely.

Back in Konoha, after dinner and three hours of training in Wood Release, Natsume finally had some time to himself.

He began to think about his next move.

Now that we have a million taels, we can rent a room as a temporary base.

There's just no one available.

Kabuto Yakushi's strength is relatively weak; it will take at least another two or three years.

Natsume stroked his chin and suddenly thought of Karin and her daughter.

It can be done.

After all, it would be a shame to miss out on two ninjas from the Uzumaki clan.
