"Boss! I'm back!"
With that loud shout, Tsunade came running into the shop carrying a massive black sack.
"Tsunade-sama, please… slow down… wait for me…" Shizune trailed closely behind, panting heavily as she struggled to catch her breath and speak.
Originally, Shizune had intended to stop Tsunade from selling off the Senju clan estate. But Tsunade ran far too fast, leaving Shizune no chance of catching her.
By the time Shizune finally reached the entrance of Konoha Village, she saw Tsunade already walking out of the village with that large sack in her hands.
And what exactly was Tsunade carrying on her shoulder? Take a guess yourselves! That was most definitely the money she got from selling off the clan land…
Seeing this scene, Shizune was instantly petrified. She hadn't expected Tsunade's actions to be this swift. She was just one step too late, and in that brief moment, the cold, unyielding Senju estate had already been converted into warm stacks of cash…
When Tsunade saw Shizune, the smile on her face froze instantly. She stared in disbelief and asked, "Shizune? Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay and guard the books in the shop?"
Shizune was on the verge of tears. It seemed Tsunade-sama really had been swindled by that so-called boss. To think she would actually sell off her clan's land just to buy some books…
Shizune was just about to scold her, but before she could open her mouth, Tsunade anxiously interrupted:
"This ledger must not be left unattended! What if someone steals it?!"
Saying this, Tsunade hurriedly hoisted the sack of money and rushed straight toward Yun Xiao's shop.
Shizune could only shake her head helplessly and follow behind. If she had known things would turn out like this, she would have obediently stayed at Yun Xiao's shop from the start. This whole chase nearly wore her out to death…
Yun Xiao was slightly surprised to see Tsunade return so quickly. He had thought she wouldn't be back until evening at the earliest. Who would have guessed she'd return in such a short time already carrying the money?
Clearly, the Collector's Edition of "King of Gamblers" had an irresistible allure for Tsunade!
Tsunade placed the sack down in front of Yun Xiao, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said with a smile, "Boss, I've brought the money. Please count it!"
Yun Xiao nodded and began to count the money inside the sack. Because there was such a huge amount, and because Yun Xiao wasn't good at math, it took him quite some time to finish.
The total silver Tsunade brought was thirty-five million taels. By the time Yun Xiao finished counting, he was already drenched in sweat.
To make matters worse, he suddenly noticed that several tens of thousands of taels of his commission were missing. Upon asking the system, he found out that the system actually charged a handling fee… even for helping him count the money!
This left Yun Xiao fuming. The system was such a rip-off! He had originally wanted to count the money himself, but once he got into the three-to-five-million range, he completely lost track and gave up… In the end, he had no choice but to accept the system's fee. After all, the money ultimately went to the system anyway.
If Black Zetsu and Obito had seen Yun Xiao's snail-paced counting speed, they would surely have mocked him mercilessly.
After all, the notorious thief duo of the ninja world once set a record of accurately counting over three billion taels in a single day! Compared to them, Yun Xiao was utterly inferior.
From the sack, Yun Xiao took out thirty million taels and deposited them into his system space.
Then, delighted, he pulled out the Collector's Edition of "King of Gamblers" from his robe and handed it over to Tsunade.
With trembling hands, Tsunade received the book. She gently ran her fingers across the cover, feeling the unique texture beneath her fingertips. A rush of excitement surged through her.
"Boss, how exactly do I use this book?" Tsunade asked, her voice shaking with anticipation.
Yun Xiao smiled slightly and explained: "Just tear out the skill pages, and you'll immediately acquire the abilities."
The moment she heard this, Tsunade couldn't wait any longer. She quickly opened the Collector's Edition of "King of Gamblers."
But to her surprise, despite how thick the book looked on the outside, there were only three pages inside…
On those thin sheets of paper were written three bold titles: "Poker", "Mahjong", and "Dice."
Without hesitation, Tsunade tore each of the fragile pages one by one. And then—something miraculous happened!
The shredded pages suddenly seemed to come alive, bursting into dazzling golden light before breaking apart into countless tiny sparkling motes.
The golden light particles shot rapidly and precisely into Tsunade's body, disappearing without a trace.
In the instant the light merged into her, an endless torrent of intricate gambling techniques surged up from the depths of Tsunade's mind.
Tsunade was stunned to discover that she now instinctively understood the rules, tactics, and psychological warfare of every type of gambling. It was as if she had endured countless trials and experiences, finally emerging as an unmatched gambling master!
This newfound power gave Tsunade the illusion that she had truly become the legendary invincible God of Gambling!
With her sharpened senses, she could even hear the faintest sounds of dice tumbling and accurately predict the exact number each die would land on. Such superhuman hearing and judgment made it seem as though she had gained X-ray vision, ensuring that every game she played would be hers to win.
At that moment, Tsunade felt an unprecedented surge of strength coursing through her. She was certain that, if she so wished, she could instantly transform even the worst hand of cards into the winning hand everyone envied.
This sudden transformation filled Tsunade, who had always lost in gambling, with wild exhilaration. She felt incomparably powerful!
"Hahahaha! It's real! I really have become the God of Gambling!"
Unable to control her excitement, Tsunade burst into loud, boisterous laughter that echoed through the room.
Standing at the side, Shizune was completely dumbfounded. She widened her eyes, watching Tsunade-sama act as though she had lost her mind, filled with confusion and worry.
What on earth had happened to Tsunade-sama? Not only had she been tricked into selling off the clan land to buy a useless book, but now she was behaving like a madwoman…
Seeing Tsunade's strange behavior, Shizune nearly broke into tears. If Tsunade-sama really had gone crazy, what would become of her and Tonton?
"Tsunade-sama… are you alright?" Shizune asked timidly, her voice so soft it was like the bite of a mosquito, afraid that any louder might worsen Tsunade's already fragile state of mind…
She hadn't seen the golden light flowing into Tsunade's body when the pages were torn, so in her eyes, Tsunade appeared to have been overtaken by some mysterious power that had driven her into madness.
Inwardly, Shizune prayed desperately, hoping Tsunade-sama would recover soon and not fall further into this madness…
