Chapter 164: How can you be so stingy with gifts!

"By the way, I haven't congratulated Tsunade-sama on becoming the Fourth Hokage; this is a small gift we prepared, please accept it."

"Could the Senju clan head please pass it on."

The Mist envoy handed a gift box to Senju Xingye.

Senju Xingye raised an eyebrow.

He had just said he wanted to discuss something, and this guy was giving Tsunade a gift at this juncture?

What's the meaning of this?

Senju Xingye's star-like eyes narrowed slightly, and his mind began to race.

Taking the gift box, Senju Xingye checked it to confirm there were no traps or anything, before handing it to his wife, Senju Tsunade.

Senju Tsunade took it directly and intended to put it in a drawer without even looking.

"Wait, it's a gift specifically for you; wouldn't it be impolite not to take a look?"

Senju Xingye said with a smile.

Senju Tsunade had no choice but to take the gift box out again.

She opened it and looked.

"This is?"

Senju Tsunade frowned slightly.

The Mist envoy immediately raised his head proudly and said.

"This is a black pearl from the deep sea; it is said that wearing it for a long time has beauty-enhancing effects, most suitable for a beautiful lady like you, Hokage-sama."

Senju Tsunade looked at the marble-sized black pearl in the box and seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

Senju Xingye saw this and couldn't help but curl his lip.

"It's only this big."

"Let me show you what a real black pearl looks like."

He casually took out a scroll, and with a *bang*, produced an exquisite sandalwood box. Opening it, inside were all kinds of black pearls!

The color was full and natural!

Compared to this, the gift from the Mist envoy was just a millet grain!

The smallest one in the sandalwood box was as thick as a thumb, and the largest was even the size of a fist!

Even Senju Tsunade, who didn't usually like jewelry, looked at them with glowing eyes.

These items were all collections Senju Xingye had gathered years ago.

Because too much time had passed, if the Mist envoy hadn't come to show off, Senju Xingye might not have remembered them.

"If you like them, they're all yours."

Throwing the sandalwood box directly, Senju Xingye didn't care about these priceless black pearls at all.

After all, compared to the wealth he possessed, these were just a drop in the bucket.

"Be careful!"

"What if you break them? Although I don't like them, the younger sisters definitely have people who do; if they break, the sisters will be sad."

Senju Tsunade quickly took the box and chided him.

"They were meant for you all anyway, but they'd been sitting there for so long I forgot about them myself."

Senju Xingye said with a smile.

The Mist envoy's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and his face turned deathly pale.

His original pride had long since vanished.

"I, I didn't expect the Senju clan head to have so many rare treasures in his collection; I am truly ashamed."

Senju Xingye smiled and said.

"Can't help it, I have no other traits besides having a lot of money."

"Do you have any more to give?"

"If not, let's hurry up and discuss the real business."

The Rock envoy and Sand envoy looked at each other, and suddenly felt that the gifts in their hands weighed a thousand pounds.

But if word got out that they had come to celebrate but hadn't even prepared gifts, it would obviously sound even worse.

"Ahem, actually, I have a small gift here too."

"Please, Hokage-sama, don't mind it."

The Sand envoy bit the bullet and handed over the gift prepared by the Sand Village high-ups.

"As long as the sentiment is there, I naturally won't mind."

Senju Tsunade said with a smile, then looked at her husband.

Senju Xingye took it casually, opened it, and the disdain in his eyes grew even stronger.
