"This guy does have some skill." Shiyu clearly saw that in their first round, both of them drew an empty talisman.
Then, the gambling addict said, "I want this one!"
The gambling demon drew another card, while Shiyu also drew an empty card.
"The last one!" The gambling demon quickly examined the last two cards, but before he could even make a move, he saw Shiyu draw another card at lightning speed.
"Damn it! It's that one!" The Gambling Demon immediately snatched Shiyu's talisman and threw away the one in his own hand.
In the end, the gambling demon successfully snatched the card that Shiyu had, and Shiyu had no choice but to take the card that the gambling demon had discarded.
"Haha! Kid! These three cards of mine are all blank! That means you must have one of the Explosive Tag! A bet's a bet! Detonate it now!" The Gambling Demon also started laughing wildly, "Hahaha! I, the Gambling Demon, am still the better player!"
"Boss... even Shingen doesn't know what to do."
"This guy probably has another trick up his sleeve," Tsunade muttered to herself.
As for Shiyu, she looked at the Gambling Demon with a smile, making the Gambling Demon feel a little guilty.
"Something's not right!" Just as the Gambling Demon sensed something amiss, Shiyu immediately sneered, "A bet's a bet, right? This time, you're definitely going to die!"
"Drink!" Shiyu activated the Explosive Tag, while the Gambling Demon stared in disbelief at his hand.
In the end, the piece of white paper that the gambling demon stole from Shiyu turned into Explosive Tag.
"Damn it! Why?! I've been tricked!"
"Boom!" The Explosive Tag had detonated, and the gambling addict probably never understood how he lost.
Although this gambling demon claimed to be a gambling master, he was actually just a conman. In fact, Shiyu had already tampered with the paper containing the Explosive Tag.
First, leave the Flying Thunder God Mark on the Explosive Tag, turning them into blank sheets of paper. This makes all six look like blank sheets of paper. Shiyu uses a little trick to make the gambling demon think that the one in his hand is the correct one. Because the gambling demon is eager to win, he is completely trapped by Shiyu.
A gasp rippled through the crowd, but no one dared to do anything to Shiyu. After all, the Gambling Demon was a wanted criminal, and some people had already recognized the person in front of them.
"Could this be Orochimaru, one of the Sannin Lord Orochimaru?"
"Just as I suspected! The Gambling Demon is a wanted criminal! So he came here to complete a mission!"
After being reminded by those who pretended to know everything, Shiyu's Orochimaru transformation naturally went without any trouble.
Then Shiyu turned around and said, "Tsunade, I've paid off all your gambling debts. Let's go talk." Shiyu took Tsunade and walked to Tanzaku Street outside the casino.
"Tsunade, there are some things I need to tell you in advance."
"Before that, I want to tear off your mask! You're not Orochimaru at all!" Tsunade suddenly threw a punch.
"Ambush me? Interesting!" Shiyu was sent flying by Tsunade's punch, and a trench appeared on the ground of Tanzaku Street.
"Who are you?" Tsunade also questioned.
"As expected of Tsunade, how did you know I wasn't Orochimaru?" Shiyu asked, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
"Orochimaru would never pull me aside for no reason, much less kindly help me pay off my gambling debts," Tsunade said.
"I see. It was my oversight in the details. But I just wanted to talk to you, my senior sister." Suddenly, Shiyu disappeared with a "bang."
"Shadow Clone!? When!?" Tsunade also looked incredulous, as she hadn't seen the fake Orochimaru make any Hand Seals at all.
Immediately afterward, Shiyu's sword hilt was pressed against Tsunade's neck.
"I am not an enemy. I am your junior brother, Uchiha Shigure, the last disciple of the Lord Third." Shiyu immediately sheathed his Dragon Fang Blade.
"Shiyu. I seem to remember you. How come you're such a small child?" Tsunade turned around and was shocked once again when she saw Shiyu.
"I heard that old geezer had a new disciple, who wasn't very old, but I really didn't expect him to be this young!" Tsunade was still somewhat surprised.
"Alright. Can we sit down and talk?" Shiyu then looked around; the crowd around them was already drawn to the fight between the two.
"Whatever you want from me is none of my business." Tsunade turned away coldly, showing no sign of being the future Fifth Hokage.
Shiyu shook his head. "Everything in this world can be answered with 'it has nothing to do with you' or 'it has nothing to do with me,' but wouldn't that be incredibly irresponsible? As Konoha Ninja, don't you care about the safety of the Land of Fire?"
Shiyu immediately followed up, saying, "Countless people have died for Konoha. Do you want their deaths to have been in vain?!"
Tsunade retorted angrily, "Kid! Don't talk like you know everything about war! You're just a brat! How dare you lecture me!"
After finishing her tirade, Tsunade shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, but I refuse. Please leave."
Shiyu said calmly, "Have you truly seen through the war? Because of the deaths of Nawaki and Dan, you chose to escape? To use alcohol and gambling to escape reality? To escape memories? To escape the future?"
"Where did you hear those two names, you brat!" Tsunade was fine until she heard them, but hearing them was like flipping a switch on her inner sorrow.
"How disappointing. I never imagined the Senju Clan would fall to such a state? Is the Will of Fire truly burning within you?" Shiyu sneered.
"Say what you will! I won't stoop to the level of a brat from the Uchiha Clan!" Tsunade turned around and walked away step by step.
"How pitiful. The female ninja trained by Teacher Sarutobi has ended up like this? You're not even as good as a Genin! The Genin of Konoha would pick up Kunai to protect Konoha. So many people have lost their loved ones, yet they still protect Konoha and the Land of Fire as always."
Shiyu had tried his best to stop Tsunade, but he still couldn't get Tsunade to stop.
Shiyu finally unleashed her trump card.
"Tsunade! Dan and Nawaki wanted to become Hokage, didn't they? To become Hokage! They were willing to die like this, just to gain the approval of those around them! Even in death, they were still happy, but you?!"
What's the point of living?
"You even destroyed what they entrusted to you." Tsunade Shiyu speaking and prepared to give up. Tsunade had already walked away.
"Kid!" Tsunade suddenly stopped and shouted.
Then Tsunade turned around, tears streaming down her face. She clenched Tsunade fists and said, "Kid! You're right, I shouldn't live like this anymore."
"But before I'm reborn, I still want to give you a good beating!"
