Owed One Hundred Million

Under the moonlight, Tsunade revealed a rare smile.

So beautiful!

Since getting to know Tsunade, this was the first time Xiao Yun had seen her smile. It was truly breathtakingly beautiful. One look at it made him feel as if he had downed three jin of erguotou, leaving him dizzy and lightheaded.

He had never believed that King Zhou had lit the beacon fires just to win a beauty's smile. But seeing Tsunade's captivating expression, Xiao Yun finally understood why so many foolish rulers in history had lost their kingdoms over beautiful women.

One finger, at most a million. He could just treat it as not having won this time. That smile alone was worth a million, not to mention she was carrying his child!

"Tsunade, this is the million I won. Take it and pay off your gambling debt."

Xiao Yun took out the Konoha Bank check he had won today and handed it to Tsunade.

Tsunade accepted the check with a beaming smile, her pale arms coiling around Xiao Yun like pythons.

Smack!

Her soft, fragrant lips suddenly covered Xiao Yun's mouth, and the twin peaks against his chest made his blood surge.

Shizune tactfully shut the door from outside.

Buzz—

Xiao Yun's mind exploded.

"Xiao Yun, I want it. I want more. I want even more."

Tsunade looked at Xiao Yun with hazy eyes.

Xiao Yun's eyes widened. Was she so moved that she wanted to give herself to him?

That million had been well spent!

"I'll give it to you, Tsunade."

Xiao Yun's breathing grew heavy, and his hands began to wander.

"Xiao Yun, I mean I want more money."

Tsunade said gently.

?

What did she mean?

"A million isn't enough?"

Xiao Yun froze.

"Not enough! Actually, I still owe one hundred million in gambling debts. Xiao Yun, you need to work hard and pay them off for me."

Tsunade looked at Xiao Yun with a sweet smile.

Buzz!

Xiao Yun's mind exploded again.

"How much did you say? Say that again."

Xiao Yun rubbed his ears, thinking he had misheard.

"Just one hundred million."

Tsunade snuggled in Xiao Yun's arms.

One hundred million, and she called that just?

Xiao Yun looked as though he had seen a ghost and swiftly let go of Tsunade.

This spendthrift woman had actually lost one hundred million. Her Ninja stipend was barely over ten thousand a month, yet she had blown through ten thousand months' worth of wages.

He had naively assumed Tsunade owed at most a million. Clearly, his perspective had been too limited.

"Look at that pathetic face! Don't worry, I've signed you up for several matches. You'll pay it off soon enough."

Tsunade walked over to Xiao Yun and tugged at the hem of his clothes coquettishly.

She had signed him up for several matches?

"No! You spendthrift woman!"

Xiao Yun refused without hesitation. No wonder she had been hugging and kissing him tonight. This was way too damn expensive.

One hundred million!

That was enough to spend a lifetime at Moonlight Izakaya. Plump or slender, tall or short, fat or thin, young or old—what couldn't he find there?

And the service was great too. They greeted you with "arigato," and as long as the tips were good enough, what pose wouldn't they strike?

"Are you going or not?" Tsunade's face changed in an instant. Her earlier gentleness vanished, replaced by a ferocious expression.

"No!"

"I'll ask you one more time. Are you going or not?"

Tsunade grabbed Xiao Yun by the collar, raising her voice by more than ten decibels.

"I won't go even if I die!"

"I... Waaah!"

Tsunade burst into tears, clutching her stomach and howling, "My child, your father doesn't care whether your mother lives or dies! If Mommy can't repay this gambling debt, they'll force her to marry the Raikage's younger brother! I heard the Raikage's younger brother has lots of tentacles. Mommy can't handle that! Waaah... waaah... waaah..."

"Wait, they're forcing you to marry the Raikage's younger brother? What does that mean?"

Xiao Yun asked in confusion.

"It happened like this..."

It turned out that two years ago, Tsunade had gone to a casino in the Hidden Cloud Village and lost twenty-five million in one go. She had planned to flee, but that casino was the Fourth Raikage's private property. Tsunade was formidable, sure, but the other side was no pushover either.

Left with no choice, Tsunade borrowed fifty million in high-interest loans. With compound interest, it had grown to one hundred million by this year. If she still could not pay it back this year, then according to the agreement, Tsunade would have to marry the Fourth Raikage's younger brother to repay the debt with her body.

"You... Sigh, Tsunade, you really are all boobs and no brains. You actually dared to borrow a high-interest loan with a hundred percent annual interest rate?"

Xiao Yun was speechless.

"Xiao Yun, you don't want me to be pinned down and played with by another man, do you?"

Tears filled Tsunade's eyes as she looked at Xiao Yun with a wronged expression.

"You win. What matches are they? Let me hear it."

Xiao Yun said irritably.

"Here's the match list. Take it back and look through it slowly. I love you, Xiao Yun."

Tsunade suddenly kissed Xiao Yun.

"Holy shit, this many matches?"

Xiao Yun gave it a rough glance. There were at least several hundred matches.

"Not many, not many. Just a few hundred."

"No! I need to collect some interest first."

Xiao Yun grabbed Tsunade, and his hands began to roam.

"Blergh... blergh... blergh... The baby is acting up in my stomach again. No, Xiao Yun, I'm going to throw up. Once the baby is born, I'll serve you every day."

Xiao Yun: ...

In the forest.

"Might Guy, why is the Second Gate so hard to open? It's been five days, and I still have no clue."

Xiao Yun plopped down on the ground, his brow furrowed.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Might Guy and Rock Lee both sprayed out the water in their mouths.

Back then, it had taken them two whole years just to open the First Gate. Xiao Yun had only been training for a few days, yet he was already thinking about opening the Second Gate?

"Well, Xiao Yun, the greatest taboo in training is impatience. Take it slowly!"

Might Guy said meaningfully.

Take it slowly?

I'd like to, damn it, but in one month Tsunade has arranged an underground match for me: me versus Samueru, the top rookie of the Hidden Cloud Village.

It was said that this man had an exceptional talent for Lightning Release, even greater than the Third Raikage's. He had once defeated more than a dozen Genin alone, and his strength was terrifying.

"Why doesn't Tsunade just go die?"

Xiao Yun muttered quietly.

"Master, why do you want Lady Tsunade to die?"

Naruto Uzumaki looked at Xiao Yun in confusion.

"What the hell does that have to do with you? Go train."

Xiao Yun snapped.

"System, System, you little bastard, do you have any way to quickly increase my strength?"

"You're the little bastard. Your whole family are little bastards."

The system replied speechlessly.

"Believe it or not, starting today, I'll slack off and stop cultivating that bullshit Chaos Heaven Gate."

"Big brother, I was wrong! If you want to rapidly increase your strength, the quickest method is naturally to train Wood Release ninjutsu. But for now, I don't recommend doing that. You should wait until your Wood Chakra evolves to Level 3. Then your training will yield twice the results with half the effort."

The system said.

That's right!

How had he forgotten? He was a super genius with Level 9 purity Wood Chakra. What was the point of training taijutsu every day?

He should go train Wood Release ninjutsu!

"Might Guy, talk to the Third Hokage. Starting today, I want to train in Wood Release ninjutsu as well."

Xiao Yun said.

Might Guy fell silent for a moment before nodding. After all, Xiao Yun was a Wood Release genius. It really made no sense for him to train only in the Eight Inner Gates...
