The dealer continued dealing cards, and the two gambling so much naturally attracted more onlookers.

"My goodness! Looks like we have another big client today!"

"I recognize this old man, but this woman looks unfamiliar!"

Many onlookers watched this scene with great interest.

Although the casino has many wealthy people who come to play a few rounds every day, there aren't Tenten targets.

"Three Queens? I don't believe your straight flush!"

The old man turned over his cards, and the three Queens stood out conspicuously.

This hand is already quite strong at the gambling table; most people wouldn't dare to bet on a pair.

He was a regular at the casino, and he was certain that the person in front of him was a first-timer.

Just when he thought the matter was settled, Tsunade on the other side suddenly raised her hand.

"To be honest, I haven't even seen my own hand, but I believe I will win!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tsunade slowly turned over her last trump card.

"A pair of 9, 10, Q, K."

The hand isn't a straight, but it is a flush!

The onlookers were immediately in an uproar when they saw it; the cards weren't big, but they were enough to use and spend!

They also expressed doubt about the claim that Tsunade hadn't seen her cards. Could someone really have such incredible luck?

Although they didn't believe it, what happened next completely stunned them.

No matter how much the people at the card table All-in, Tsunade along.

Everyone else has Kings, she has Aces; everyone else has Aces, she has three of a kind; everyone else has three of a kind, she has a flush; everyone else has a flush, she has a straight flush...

You can win with your eyes closed if you dare to call.

Tsunade didn't seem surprised by the sudden burst of luck.

This wasn't something that hadn't happened before, so in her view, it was to be expected this time as well.

However, what she didn't expect was that this "good luck" was entirely man-made.

She was also prepared for the bad things that would happen after she won at gambling.

"Lady Tsunade, this place seems really nice! It's been so long since I've won so much money!"

In a lounge, Shizune stared dazedly at the huge pile of banknotes in front of her, her hands constantly stroking them. At this moment, even if Uchiha Madara dared to snatch them from her, she dared to confront him head-on!

"Tch! Look at you, so pathetic! I told you you wouldn't suffer if you followed me!"

At this point, Tsunade had entered Sage Mode, and the immediate benefits were insignificant to her.

However, the smug upturn of her lips betrayed her true feelings at that moment.

"This place is really nice! Let's go shopping later, I saw so many interesting things!"

Shizune recalled the attire of the people of the Northern Lands, their clothes, shoes, skirts, bags, necklaces, and so on.

She noticed it the moment she entered the Northern Lands and couldn't stop thinking about it; no woman could resist such glamorous things.

However, the two of them often lived a life of hardship, and let alone going on shopping sprees in every place they went, it would be good enough if they didn't end up with a mountain of debt, even if Tsunade performed normally.

"Hmm! My shoes are worn out, I need to go buy a few pairs!"

Tsunade looked at her long, slender legs propped up on the table. She had been wearing those high heels for years, and the soles were almost worn flat.

"Yay! Lady Tsunade is the best!"

Shizune excitedly hugged Tsunade's neck, and then immediately helped Tsunade shoulders and arms.

However, what she didn't notice was that Tsunade's expression of enjoyment contained a faint trace of worry in her brows.

The two soon arrived at the market in the Northern Lands, where a dazzling array of goods filled their eyes.

Shopping with money and shopping without money are completely different experiences; if two people like something, they'll buy it.

Women have no sense of time when they go shopping. They buy, eat, drink, and have fun all the way, and night falls very quickly.

Carrying large and small bags—yes, carrying them—the two returned to their hotel in the building only after they had eaten and drunk their fill.

Logically, having won so much money, she should have drunk herself into oblivion, but Tsunade unusually returned without drinking much.

I had just returned to my room when there was a knock on the door.

Shizune, who had just put down a lot of her things, was looking forward to experiencing the comfortable and soft king-size bed in the room, and went to Gate of Opening with a hint of doubt and reluctance.

As soon as the door opened, a familiar young girl's face came into view.

"Long time no see, Shizune- chan!"

A sweet, slightly familiar voice entered the Shizune ear.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, Shizune was momentarily stunned, staring blankly at the smiling girl in front of her.

"Red... Anko?"

Seeing Shizune's blank stare, Anko raised her hand and waved it in front of her eyes.

"What? Don't you recognize me?"

These words were like a wake-up call; Shizune, realizing what was happening, immediately hugged Anko.

Although there is a difference in their ages, their heights are almost the same, and they really look like sisters when they stand together.

"Anko, what are you doing here!"

While hugging her, he asked her questions, his grip so tight that Anko almost rolled her eyes back.

"Alright, alright! Aren't you going to let me in first?"

Anko had finally managed to break free from the embrace, said helplessly, "It would be fine if someone else hugged me, but with Shizune, it's uncomfortable against my chest. And judging by the looks of it, he's not even as big as her!"

"Oh! My apologies, I was just so excited to see you!"

Shizune quickly ushered Anko into the room. Since she and Tsunade had become rich overnight, the room they booked was naturally the best.

A luxurious suite is more befitting of Princess Tsunade's status!

"Shizune! Who's here?"

Tsunade, wrapped in a towel, had just come out of the bathroom and was drying her wet hair when she peeked towards the doorway.

"Lady Tsunade, Lady Tsunade! Look who's here!"

When she saw Anko behind Shizune, her hand movements also froze.

The little guy who used to come to our house for meals every few days has gradually grown up.

And now that she's appeared, is that man...?

Although Tsunade and Shizune have been living a carefree and unrestrained life in the ninja world over the years, it doesn't mean they are completely indifferent to the situation in the Ninja World.

In particular, I had heard about some of the situations in Konoha. The Nine-Tails' Attack in Konoha a few years ago caused quite a stir, and even those who weren't well-informed had heard about it.

She also heard about Orochimaru leaving Konoha with Shizune after that night.

Many thoughts flashed through Tsunade's mind. As a ninja renowned throughout the Ninja World, she didn't think as simply as Shizune.

"Lady Tsunade! It's been a long time!"

Seeing the beautiful woman emerging from the bath, especially her impressive figure, and comparing it to the size of the jerk she had just Shizune, Anko bowed slightly with envy.

Once she came to her senses, Tsunade took a deep breath and then tossed the towel aside.

"Okay! Sit down for a bit, I'll dry my hair!"

After saying hello, Shizune pulled Anko to the living room. She had bought a lot of things today and wanted to share them with her friend first.

A short while later, Tsunade, now dressed again, appeared before the two of them.

At this moment, she was dressed in ancient costume, which was different from the slightly rigid outfit in the original timeline, but was somewhat similar to the two sets of clothes that Orochimaru had given her many years ago.

It has to be said that beautiful women look good in anything, and this outfit makes Tsunade's temperament look ethereal.

Shizune, but before she could utter a word of praise, Tsunade glared at her.

"Anko! You didn't come here by yourself, did you?"
