Chapter 292: Teaching at the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I Am Tsunade
Kitazawa could roughly guess what he was going to say.
Sure enough.
Hiruzen Sarutobi talked about the causes and consequences of Tsunade's hemophobia.
Kitazawa already knew about it in his past life, but the original work didn't explain it as thoroughly as Hiruzen Sarutobi did.
"The reason I'm telling Itachi this is to make it easier for Itachi to persuade Tsunade better."
Hiruzen Sarutobi reminded, "Only Itachi and I know about this mission; it must not be leaked to outsiders."
"Yes, Lord Hokage."
Kitazawa said with a serious face.
"Go find Haru."
Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand and said.
Kitazawa bowed slightly, then found Haru at the door and went to the Anbu to collect two million ryo.
After leaving the Hokage building, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
He hadn't expected things to develop to this point before he came.
But difficult as it was, if he could really complete it, the rewards would be very generous.
In addition to the Wood Release given by the system, he would also soar in the Hidden Leaf Village, officially becoming a ninja of the Hokage's lineage, and his status would skyrocket.
"Why did Itachi talk for so long?"
A sudden voice rang out above his head.
Kitazawa looked up and saw a pair of long, slender legs dangling in the air.
It was Tsunade.
He couldn't help but be startled.
Kitazawa thought Tsunade would go to the casino or an izakaya in anger, but he never expected her to be waiting for him here.
"What are Itachi dazing for?"
Tsunade jumped down from the roof.
In an instant, a magnificent sight appeared before Kitazawa's eyes.
"Let's go back."
Tsunade said with a calm expression, "Itachi teach me that new card game Itachi mentioned."
"Okay."
Kitazawa nodded, took out a bankbook, and said, "This is the money for Itachi."
Tsunade opened the bankbook.
When she saw the one million ryo, her gaze immediately froze.
Under normal circumstances, she should have received 700, 00 ryo.
Receiving one million ryo meant Hiruzen Sarutobi had given two million ryo.
"I didn't promise Itachi anything, old man."
Tsunade hummed softly, then smiled, "Since Itachi've already given it to me, I have no reason to refuse."
"As expected of Itachi, Lady Tsunade."
Kitazawa gave a thumbs up and said.
"Isn't that what Itachi said?"
Tsunade put away the bankbook, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and said, "We should look forward."
She was referring to the time they talked heart-to-heart after getting drunk at the izakaya.
"But Itachi look more like Itachi're looking forward to money right now."
Kitazawa teased.
"What do Itachi mean?"
Tsunade glared at him and asked with some annoyance, "In your eyes, am I just a person who only cares about money?"
"Of course not."
Kitazawa shook his head and said, "I know Lady Tsunade cares about the Hidden Leaf Village."
"I don't."
Tsunade turned her head to look at the Hokage Rock in the distance and refused.
Tsundere is out of fashion now.
But Kitazawa didn't dare to say more and kept her company in silence.
"Let's go."
Tsunade glanced at him and walked forward.
The two returned to Kurenai Yuhi's home.
As soon as Shizune heard the door open, she stood up and ran to the entrance.
When she saw Tsunade, she immediately let out a sigh of relief.
"Kurenai."
Tsunade took off her shoes and said impatiently, "Let's play cards."
"What's this about playing cards?"
Shizune looked at Kitazawa subconsciously.
"The price paid to bring her back."
Kitazawa spread his hands and said, "I tried my best, senior sister Shizune."
"It's fine, playing cards after coming back at least won't lose money."
Shizune reached out, wanting to pat his shoulder, but because she wasn't tall enough, she could only stand on tiptoe.
"What cards are we playing?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked in confusion, "Lady Tsunade, I don't know how to play cards."
"Not knowing how to play is even better!"
Tsunade's eyes lit up and she said.
"I thought of a new way to play cards yesterday."
Kitazawa took out a deck of poker cards and said, "It's called... Fighting the Raikage."
"Fighting the Raikage?"
Tsunade sat on the sofa and asked with a smile, "How did Itachi get the Raikage involved?"
"It's like this."
Kitazawa explained the "Fight the Landlord" gameplay from his past life and modified the meaning of the name.
Simply put, it was two Hidden Leaf ninja working together to defeat the Fourth Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village.
"Sounds not bad."
Tsunade sat up straight and said confidently, "Let's start now!"
Shizune shook her head.
She could already guess the specific result.
Even if Kurenai Yuhi and Kitazawa hadn't played cards before, it was the same.
"Damn it!"
Half an hour later, Tsunade gritted her teeth, looking very unhappy.
They had played seven rounds in total, and she hadn't won a single one.
Whether she was the "landlord" or the "farmer," she lost.
Kitazawa was also dumbfounded.
Losing as the landlord, he could understand, after all, it was one against two, fighting alone.
But losing as a farmer, and not winning a single round, was truly terrifying.
In two of those rounds, Kitazawa and Tsunade were teammates.
His cards were terrible, and he couldn't carry her at all.
"Shizune, pour me a glass of water, I don't believe I can't win a single round!"
Tsunade stood up, took off her coat, revealing her fair arms.
Shizune wanted to say something but stopped, but she didn't say anything.
Anyway, as long as she wasn't losing money, losing anything else was fine.
"Seventeen cards, how are Itachi going to beat me in seconds?"
Tsunade suddenly widened her eyes and shouted excitedly.
Hearing this familiar sentence, Kitazawa couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Could it be that she was going to win?
After all, the cards in his hand were quite average.
But fate still didn't stand on Tsunade's side.
Because Kurenai Yuhi's luck was explosive, ending the game.
The scorching sunlight outside the window gradually disappeared, replaced by a brilliant sunset.
"Lady Tsunade, Itachi..."
Kurenai Yuhi felt her worldview had been impacted.
How could someone play cards all afternoon and lose, lose, lose, lose?
What kind of luck is this?
And Tsunade, who had such luck, still went to the casino every day?
Kurenai Yuhi suddenly understood Shizune.
"I'm not playing anymore!"
Tsunade threw the poker cards away, fell back onto the sofa, and the whole person seemed to lose all her luster.
"I'm going to learn genjutsu."
Kitazawa put away the poker cards and said.
He still had one last genjutsu left, and he planned to get it done today.
As for what to learn, he had already chosen.
The Haze Clone Jutsu, a D-rank genjutsu, could even be said to be the D-rank of D-ranks, a very basic genjutsu.
Its effect was simple: to create a terrifying black phantom.
But the black phantom had no lethality; it was purely to scare inexperienced ninja.
"Do Itachi need me to teach Itachi?"
Kurenai Yuhi asked immediately.
"No need."
Kitazawa shook his head and said, "Itachi go cook, I'll learn the Haze Clone Jutsu Itachi gave me yesterday; it's not difficult."
He stood up and went outside.
After half an hour of study, he met the system's standards.
