Samui shook the dice cup in her hand, a fident expression on her fabsp;
Gambling was undoubtedly a bad habit for mature ninja, but for ANBU, it was the opposite. It was a necessary skill to master, just in case.
Victory was within her grasp. Samui had already formuted a pn:
She would let Tsunade win a few rounds at the beginning, then make her lose to the point where she'd even have to sell the clothes she was wearing, revealing her i figure underh.
Of course, in the end, there would be a toug se of sisterly love and shared vilge ins, moving Tsuo tears and ultimately agreeing to her small request.
“Oh? An outsider? First time at the o, huh~” Tsunade raised an eyebrow, not immediately agreeing. “Let me tell you, my luck is excellent today. If you join this table, I won't go easy on you, even if you're a woman.”
“It seems Tsunade-sama is very fident~ As it happens, so am I.”
“You know my name?”
Tsunade gnced sideways, notig the blonde woman beside her, who resembled a shy girl meeting her idol for the first time. She then looked at the forehead protector on her forehead.
After a moment of silence, a relieved smile appeared on Tsunade’s lips as she muttered, “Troublesome… Konoha ninja.”
Then she looked up. “What’s your name?”
“Gojo Ai.”
“Gojo…?”
Tsunade houghtfully. For some reason, her gaze towards Samui suddenly turned hostile.
“Alright, whoever you are, since you’re prepared, e on up!”
…
…
Acc to an unknown shinobi world stist, gambling trigger a dopamine rush that surpasses even sex and drugs.
Chips cttered, cheers and groaed as fortunes ged hands – the guests were having a bst.
“Not bad, not bad, a worthy oppo! This is truly an exhirating gamble!”
Tsunade was one of those enjoying herself.
It had been a long time since she had gambled so freely. God knows how she felt, using Shizune’s st bit of living expeo win the pile of chips that now occupied half the table.
Someone like her would typically be called a gambling mania Tanzaku Quarters.
A quice revealed that the chips oable were worth at least five million ryō.
Yet, despite losing so much money, Samui’s face showed no sign of panic.
And Shizune, as the winner, also showed no hint of joy.
Because-
Tsunade's Gambling Law!
Generally speaking, when Tsunade lost mo the gambling table, it meant nothing bad would happen.
But osunade’s luck turned and she started winning… bad things would iably follow.
What did winning so much money imply?
Shizune leaned in and whispered, “Tsunade-sama, perhaps we should stop here. If this tinues, I’m afraid you…”
“Of course, I know my own luck~”
“But Shizune, haven’t you noticed? It’s not that my luck has improved today, it’s that woman deliberately losing to me.”
Shizune was taken aback. “Then why are you still…”
“This is gambling. I’m enjoying it. The rest doesn’t matter.”
“Besides, I’m curious to see what she’s pnning by setting up this eborate scheme.”
…
…
Several rounds ter.
“…Tsunade-sama, you lost.”
The atmosphere in the o instantly grew heavy.
Tsunade, who had seemed possessed by the God of Gambling just moments ago, had lost everything in the blink of an eye.
Acc to the bet odds, she even owed Samui a substantial sum.
After unceremoniously gathering all of Tsunade’s chips, Samui, who had initially presented a dignified and elegant demeanor, now revealed a cruel smile.
In an icy tone, she said, “, I’d like to have a private versation with Tsunade-sama. So, could those who are not involved please leave?”
~Time to scram~
Seeing the irrelevant people retreat, Samui slowly bared her fangs:
“Tsunade-sama, I’m an immigrant from the Land of Flowers. In my homend, there’s a saying that the loser at the gambling table bees the winner’s-”
“Sve!”
Samui lunged forward, a wave rance washing over Tsunade, causio squint slightly.
Her movement was exaggerated, causing a distrag jiggle thanks to iia.
A finger pointed acgly at a spot barely an inch away from Tsunade’s chest. Generally, eveween women, such proximity implied either a fight or intimacy – it was an ambiguous distance.
Samui tinued, “Those who lose at the gambling table are branded with a metal tag that says ‘Stray Cat’ and treated like pets, obeying the winner’s ands until their debt is repaid.”
Samui’s attitude was incredibly hostile, like a vilinous antagonist in a cheesy novel, a stark trast to the refined dy she had portrayed upoering the o.
Perhaps at this moment, her heart was indulging in a release.
Having endured suppressed ivity around Gojo Kaigetsu for too long, she now unleashed it all on Tsunade.
‘Hmph, Gojo Kaigetsu, you wouldn’t have guessed it. While you were humiliating me, I’m doing the same to one of the revered Sannin of Konoha.’
‘Humiliating a noble Konoha princess as an undercover Cloud kunoichi… this feeling is surprisingly satisfying…’
However, Tsunade’s emotions didn't seem to fluctuate mu respoo Samui’s harsh words.
She even found the time to observe Samui’s pink tongue, which darted between her cherry-red lips as she spoke.
‘Soft tongue, agile movement, light red color, evenly textured surface… Very healthy, no signs of on ailments found in ordinary people.’
‘Not like an ordinary person, more like a ninja. But there’s no chakra fluctuation…’
Tsunade felt puzzled.
“You said your name is Gojo Ai? What’s your retionship with that Gojo Kaigetsu fellow?”
“Huh?”
Samui, still attempting her power py on Tsunade, was momentarily stunned but instinctively replied, “I’m his… f, member!”
At the st momeion triumphed ic.
As expected, Samui couldn’t bring herself to admit being Gojo Kaigetsu’s woman in front of others.
“Hmph, member…? Is that truly the extent of your retionship?”
Tsunade’s eyes gleamed with a knowing light, as if she could see through all pretenses. She muttered something inprehensible under her breath:
“That guy actually… Birds of a feather… Is this a show of dominance…?”
When she looked up again, it was with the air of a wife fronting a mistress. “This isn’t the pce to talk. Let’s go to my house.”
“Huh, what?”
Samui followed Tsunade, bewildered.
She had seemingly been in trol of the situation, but Tsunade’s attitude had shifted strangely after learning about her retionship with Gojo Kaigetsu.
‘Is something amiss?’ Samui pondered. ‘Well, as long as I achieve my goal in the end.’
The group walked towards Tsunade's home in this stramosphere.
Yuhi Kurenai, who had been cold towards Samui all along, now behaved like a bashful fan, uo utter a word.
Suddenly, Tsunade, who was leading the way, stopped. “Ah, I’m out of sake. Let’s go to the venieore where you work, Shizune.”
“…Buy sake, huh.” Shizune’s youthful face showed a hint of mencholy, as if recalling unpleasant memories.
They arrived at the venieore.
Shizuuro her position behind the ter. Tsunade, casually holding two bottles of sake, shoved oo Samui’s arms.
She then strode towards Shizune. “Shizune, I’m here to buy sake!”
“Huh?! Buying sake again?!”
Suddenly, Shizune seemed to transform, her face torted in anger, startling both Samui and Kurenai.
What was going on?
“What’s wrong with you, li… little Tsunade?!”
“Didn’t I tell you no? How many times?!” Shizune angrily spped a noti the ter. “Didn’t you see the new notice from the Land of Fire? Mi… minors are prohibited from purchasing alcohol and tobacco, especially you ninja!”
By the end of her outburst, Shizune’s face was flushed crimson.
Clearly, this wasn’t their first time perf this act.
But Shizuill felt embarrassed, extremely embarrassed.
Tsunade was well past her prime, a ripe age like a juicy peach ready to burst.
Yet, she still forced Shizuo py this role in front of the right people at the right time…
‘Childish!’ Shizune cursed inwardly.
“Eh-?! I’m so sorry, Shizune. I thought there was no need fe verification.”
“It’s illegal! Illegal, do you uand?! You could be arrested by the Konoha Secret Police across vilge borders!”
“Is this alright?! Hmm? Tell me!”
Shizune held her wrists together and shook them in front of Tsunade, emphasizing the severity of the matter.
The prohibition of alcohol and tobacco sales to minors in the Land of Fire roposal put forth by Gojo Kaigetsu after he assumed his advisory role.
It started in Konoha and then spread natiohe reason for the proposal: to ehe improvement of the general popution's physical fitness and prevent potential talented ninja from being overlooked.
Ially, to adapt to the popution turnover rate in the shinobi world, Gojo Kaigetsu thoughtfully set the age of majority at fifteen.
Tsunade shamelessly patted her ample bosom.
“But Shizune, I’m actually an adult now.”
“Ah, you’re an adult? That’s good. Thank you for your patronage.” With the performance over, Shizune’s face immediately fell, her voice devoid of emotion as she recited, “…”
‘…As one of the Sannin of Konoha, she actually enjoys such childish and clumsy performances.’
‘Konoha is truly beyond saving.’
Samui swore she would never herself with such meaningless matters as age.
“Beep, a total of 888 ryō. Thank you for your patronage.”
“Eh? You’re not going to ask for my age? Is that okay?”
“Because Gojo-san is clearly an adult.”
“Ha, that’s true…”
Kurenai unsciously rubbed her arms, inexplicably feeling the temperature drop a few degrees.
“…Ah, refreshing!”
Tsunade smmed her sake cup oable, her eyes already gzed over.
“Speak, Gojo-san. You went through all the trouble to e from Konoha to Tanzaku Quarters, pyed with me for aire afternoon, and eve me up to lose everything…”
“You wouldn’t have done all this just to make me wear that ‘Stray Cat’ tag, would you?”
Tsunade poi the metal neckce peeking out of Samui’s pocket. Clearly, Samui had actually prepared it as a prop to enhahe atmosphere.
“Speak, what’s your purpose?!”
Tsunade leaned forward abruptly, poking a finger into the steamed bun that Gojo Kaigetsu had been fond of tely, as if testing its authenticity.
‘This woman…’
Samui took a deep breath.
If not for the mission she carried and the fact that she was objectively and subjectively no match for Tsunade, she would have put up a fight.
“It’s like this, Tsunade-sama…” Samui shifted her legs, which were pinned beh Tsunade’s ample backside, moving back two steps. “I did all this mainly to ask you for a favor.”
“I’ll hand over all this moo you. Please five me for the offense I caused during the previous gambling rounds.”
When asking for help, one had to lower their head and swallow their pride. Even if it meant…
Samui uood this principle well. Therefore, she adopted a humble posture.
“Let me guess.”
“You’re from Konoha, and you’re a member of Gojo Kaigetsu. He wants something from me through you, doesn’t he?”
“Yes…”
“Wait a minute, I’m not finished.” Tsuook another swig of sake. “I’ve known Gojo Kaigetsu for many years, and this is the first time he’s sent someoo ask for my help.”
“I ’t even remember the st time he invited me to his house to watch his cats do backflips… Let me be frank! He never wanted my friendship, aes owing me favors.”
Samui: ".."
Why did it seem like… the retionship between this woman and Gojo Kaigetsu was different from what she had imagined?
“No…”
“I uand, he’s bee the Fourth Hokage’s advisor in Konoha, made a fortune, is living a good life, and has the Fourth and the ANBU proteg him.”
“It seems he doesn’t need a friend like me anymore. But… now he sent you to tell me: ‘Tsunade-sama, I need your help.’ He shows me no respect, doesn’t treat me as a friend, and isn’t even willing to e to Tanzaku Quarters himself, to call my name…”
Tsunade rambled on like a resentful woman, taking anulp of sake.
It seemed like she could barely hold her cup. Who would have imagihat this was the same woman who could shatter the ground with a single punch?
“Alright, speak. What did he send you here for?”
“Well… Tsunade-sama, this is actually a personal request. I’d like to ask you to return to Konoha and speak up for Kaigetsu-kun.”
Finally, back to the main topic.
Sometimes Samui really wao report to the Konoha Military Police Force. Were all the Konoha ninja who had ied with Gojo Kaigetsu somewhat abnormal?
“Speak up? Speak up for what? I’m just an ordinary ninja who left Konoha. My words carry there anymore.”
“Besides, with Minato Namikaze proteg him, who in Konoha could possibly harm him?” Tsunade’s eyes were blurry with drunkenness. “The old man? Or… Danzo?”
“It’s like this…”
Samui proceeded to expin Konoha’s uping “More Children, More Blessings” policy.
She tactfully expressed her reluce to have children at this time, arguing that a ninja’s twenties were their golden years for development and that Gojo Kaigetsu shouldn’t be burdened with familial responsibilities…
After sharing her personal s, Samui didn’t fet to sow discord among the Konoha elite:
“Moreover, I suspect that the vilge elders are using this opportunity to suppress Kaigetsu-kun. They know he’s not even married yet, but they still chose him as a test subject for the ‘More Children, More Blessings’ policy…”
Spoken uionally, heard iionally.
Tsunade’s expression grew increasingly strange.
As the purest ior of the Will of Fire, the Princess of Konoha, she khose elders better than anyone else.
The “More Children, More Blessings” policy… such a forceful name, ign its political implications, was clearly something Gojo Kaigetsu would e up with!
He was using his own policy to persecute himself?
Tsunade’s gaze towards Samui gradually turned pitiful. Pirl, she had been pletely fooled by Gojo Kaigetsu. This was clearly a scheme orchestrated by him, and his goal was… Samui’s i body!
The intoxicated Tsunade suddenly felt a surge of irritation. Gojo Kaigetsu… hadn’t even tried to deceive her yet.
Wasn’t her body i?!
She was clearly the first!
“You’re being delusional! That Gojo Kaigetsu fellow is simply lusting after your body. He doesn’t actually want to have children with you or anything!”
“Eh? Tsunade-sama, what are you saying?”
“With your size? Don’t be ridiculous.”
“…” Only then did Samui realize that a fondness fambling wasn’t Tsurue hobby.
What she truly craved was the “female petition” that Gojo Kaigetsu had casually mentioned!
‘What shog intel! So Tsunade, one of the Sannin of Konoha, actually has a history with that trash ninja Gojo Kaigetsu?!’
‘Konoha’s threat assessment be lowered again.’
Samui finally uood why Tsunade had reacted sely upon seeing her. In that case…
“Hmph, inferiure.”
“Skinny as a rail, I wonder if you’re malnourished?”
“Deformed fat.”
“You’re so pitiful, Tsunade-sama. It seems you haven’t received much attention from Kaigetsu-kun, have you?”
Crack-
The sake cup in Tsunade’s hand cracked.
“Do you think being big is a on? Are you pnning to funt your animalistic advantage in front of Kaigetsu-kun? That’s rather shameless, don’t you think?”
Tsunade’s face grew increasingly flushed, whether from anger or drunkenness.
She smmed the table and turo Shizune, who was frozen in shock, and Kurenai, who had witnessed her idol’s downfall.
“You two think so tht?! That a female’s worth should be measured by size, right?! That it’s an instinct Kaigetsu-kun ’t resist!”
“Tsunade-sama, you’re drunk.”
Shizune frantically dragged Tsuowards the bedroom. Soon, Tsunade fell into a deep sleep.
Shizune wiped the cold sweat from her brow. Ever sisunade-sama ied with Gojo-sama a long time ago… her hemophobia, caused by Nawaki’s death, had been cured, but her mental state had bee somewhat unstable.
Afterward, Tsunade had adopted her from the orphanage and brought her away from Konoha to settle in Tanzaku Quarters, g that being around Gojo Kaigetsu would bring misfortune, and they had to stay far away.
e to think of it, the orphanage she had been in was funded by Gojo-sama.
If she didn’t remove Tsunade from the female petition battlefield in the living room, things might escate to a stripping and size parison test.
Returning to the living room, Shizune apologized profusely to Samui. “I’m so sojo-san, for making you witness such a se.”
“As for your request, I’ll fe a letter in Tsunade-sama’s handwriting. The Konoha elders will uand when they see it.”
“In her current state, Tsunade-sama isn’t fit to return to Konoha and speak up fojo-sama.”
