Heh heh heh... Princess Tsunade... One day later, Tanzaku Town.
This small town, famous for its hot springs and casinos, lay beneath the lingering glow of the setting sun. The air was filled with the peculiar mingled scent of alcohol and sulfur.
Uchiha Sanpo, dressed in a traditional black robe, walked slowly through the bustling streets.
"The intelligence says she was spotted around here."
His gaze swept across the casino signs lining both sides of the street. According to information provided by Underground Gold,
Princess Tsunade had recently racked up a huge gambling debt in Tanzaku Town, and her creditors were searching everywhere for her.
An old man selling dango gave him a wary look.
Uchiha Sanpo walked over and placed a silver coin down.
He described Tsunade's features. "Excuse me, have you recently seen a beautiful woman with long golden hair, around 1.63 meters tall?"
The old man accepted the coin, and a trace of cunning flashed through his cloudy eyes.
He sneered. "You mean her? Isn't she the legendary fat sheep? She lost everything at Kinmaya Casino yesterday. I heard her creditors sent a lot of debt collectors looking for her everywhere. But an hour ago, I saw her running toward the hot spring district."
Uchiha Sanpo frowned slightly and hurried in the direction the old man had indicated.
The hot spring district was far quieter than the main street. The wooden buildings looked hazy and warm in the twilight.
After obtaining the Intermediate Uzumaki Sage Body, Uchiha Sanpo's senses had grown much stronger as well.
Suddenly, a familiar fluctuation of chakra came from a hot spring inn ahead called Matsu no Yu.
He silently leaped onto the roof, activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and observed the inn's layout from above.
Steam rose from the open-air hot spring area
