We're Going on a Date

The dealer shaking the dice looked over the bets once everyone had placed them, then called out, "No changes after bets are placed. No backing out."

The dice were revealed—one, two, three. The dealer lifted the dice cup, and everyone saw that the three dice had all landed on sixes: a triple.

The dealer said in astonishment, "Triples beat everything. Collect first, then pay out."

All the gamblers looked at Qingcheng enviously and exclaimed in shock, "My god, it really is a triple! How is that possible?"

Some gamblers cried out, "That's thirty times the payout! The dealer has to pay 150 million Ryo! That's a huge target!"

Others said regretfully, "This kid clearly knows what he's doing. I should've followed him and bet on triples too."

Seeing the envy in everyone's eyes, Qingcheng smiled and said, "Everyone, I got lucky this round and hit the triple."

Everyone watched enviously as Qingcheng pocketed the 150 million Ryo.

The gamblers all said, "What a lucky kid. If I hit a hand like that, I could live the good life from now on."

The dealer collected all the other bets on the table, taking in tens of millions of Ryo. But after paying out 150 million, his face turned livid. With a dark expression, he asked, "Sir, would you like to keep betting?"

Holding the 150 million Ryo, Qingcheng smiled. "Of course. I like to press my advantage while I'm winning."

Tsunade watched as the dealer took away her 500,000 Ryo, her face full of pain. She said worriedly, "That was my last bit of capital! How am I supposed to make a comeback now?"

Then Tsunade looked at the huge pile of cash Qingcheng had laid out and smiled. "Little brother, can you lend your big sister some money? Once my luck turns, I'll pay you back right away. I'm one of the Konoha Sannin."

Looking at this Big Fat Sheep, Qingcheng thought, Why is Tsunade ranked first in Konoha's Gambling, Prostitution, and Drugs? Isn't it because she owes too much money? Poor Shizune has been following Tsunade around. Who knows where she's been sold off to by now.

Tsunade looked at Qingcheng's serious face and smiled. "You must be some little Uchiha brat. Tell me, which family are you from? I definitely know your parents."

Qingcheng looked at Tsunade's towering chest as she thrust it toward him. He swallowed hard, and the words slipped out before he could stop them. "I... I'm Uchiha Yongcheng's son, God of Hell's Asura."

After saying that, Qingcheng's face filled with shock. He cursed inwardly, Fuck, why did I just reveal my identity? What the hell did I do?

Qingcheng immediately denied it. "I'm not from the Uchiha Clan. I'm from the Shimura Clan. My teacher is Hiruzen Sarutobi, and he sent me here to screw you over."

Tsunade looked at the embarrassed Qingcheng and burst into laughter. She said smugly, "So you're just another lecherous little Uchiha brat. That makes this easy. Lend me the money!"

Qingcheng's face instantly darkened. Then he said seriously, "I can lend you money, but how about going on a date with me later?"

Tsunade laughed loudly. "Little pervert, you're still too green. Grow up a little more first, will you?"

Qingcheng said solemnly, "Don't let my appearance fool you. I'm a man who has mastered the Super Invincible Wind-Fire Wheels."

Looking at Qingcheng's proud expression, Tsunade said seriously, "You're Uchiha Yongcheng's son. Your father died in the Third Ninja World War. He was quite the cocky Uchiha. Back when he was in school, Tenten got beaten up by me every day."

Tsunade rolled her eyes and mocked, "God of Hell's Asura? He was just a cocky idiot and moron."

Tsunade continued complaining, "Two punches were enough to make him submit. That cocky brat even used to bring me flowers and ask me out. But every time I saw that smug face, my fists started itching."

After saying that, Tsunade clenched a fist as large as a sandbag, and the air immediately crackled.

Hearing that, Qingcheng looked astonished. He thought, Uchiha Yongcheng, you were really pathetic. You couldn't even compete with Dan Katō.

Qingcheng said with a dark expression, "That useless father of mine really embarrassed me. If I inherited Yongcheng's will and continued asking you out, what would you think?"

Qingcheng also knew that the Uchiha Clan was arrogant, but they deeply respected the strong. Take Hashirama Senju, for example. After he beat the Uchiha Clan into submission, the Uchiha started idolizing Hashirama. Some Uchiha even supported Hashirama becoming the First Hokage.

When Madara left Konoha and wanted to take the Uchiha Clan with him, why didn't they follow? Because they feared Hashirama Senju. Many Uchiha had seen the First Hokage's Wood Release. One punch from that Wood Human had made Madara behave.

Judging by their records, Madara could not defeat Hashirama either. The Uchiha only worshipped the strong, especially someone as broad-minded as Hashirama.

So why did the Uchiha hate the Third Hokage? Wasn't it because Hiruzen Sarutobi was always resorting to underhanded tactics, allowing Danzo to suppress the Uchiha Clan? Yet Danzo and the Third Hokage were both fairly mediocre in strength, so naturally the Uchiha refused to accept them.

The Uchiha coup was nothing but slogans, with no real action. The Doves and Hawks constantly argued, hurt each other, and held each other back.

Only after Uchiha Shisui died did the Hawks and Doves reach an agreement and prepare to launch a coup, seize control of the Third Hokage, and avenge Uchiha Shisui's tragic death.

Hearing Qingcheng's words, Tsunade covered her mouth and laughed. With great disdain, she said, "I don't like any of you Uchiha. You're far too cocky. Just like my second grandfather used to say: hateful Uchiha Clan."

Qingcheng was greatly surprised by Tsunade's words. "Your second grandfather was even more extreme than the Uchiha. He insulted people all day long. And now look—the Senju Clan was wiped out by his good disciple, Hiruzen Sarutobi."

Qingcheng also wanted to test Tsunade's intentions and see whether she had any interest in returning to become the Fifth Hokage.

Tsunade said helplessly, "The Senju Clan has long since declined. We could only live in seclusion in Konoha. After the Second Shinobi World War, our elite members gradually withered away. Some enemies were also targeting the Senju Clan, and before we knew it, we had been exterminated."

Then Tsunade asked, "Has Konoha changed at all?"

Uchiha Qingcheng said seriously, "With those old fossils still around in Konoha, what could possibly change? The Uchiha Clan was exterminated, and the Shimura Clan was nearly exterminated."

Tsunade was just about to speak when she saw Qingcheng place all 150 million Ryo on small. She could not help warning him, "Lecherous brat, this round should be big. Listen to me and put everything on big."

Qingcheng waved his hand and said to Tsunade, "If this Big Fat Sheep says it's big, then small is a sure thing this round."

Hearing that, Tsunade's face filled with embarrassment. She doubted herself as she asked, "Am I really that bad?"

Qingcheng shouted again, "I'm going all in! A person has to understand the art of going all in. Going all in is wisdom. It's a form of performance art."

Soon, all the gamblers began placing their bets. Some bet on small, some bet on big, while others merely watched and did not dare wager anything.

Qingcheng opened his Sharingan and took a quick look. The dealer had already started turning the mechanism, changing the one-two-three result into big.

Qingcheng took back 100 million Ryo and said, "I have a feeling this round will still be a triple. I'm putting 50 million Ryo on triples."

Everyone was stunned and cried out, "How could there be another triple? There can't be such a coincidence!"

Tsunade was also shocked by his move. She asked in surprise, "You bet that much? Aren't you afraid the dealer won't be able to pay?"

Qingcheng smiled. "Whether they can afford to pay is their problem. Whether I dare to go all in is mine."

The dealer felt immense pressure, cold sweat covering his face. Embarrassed, he said, "Sir, you should think this through. Once bets are placed, there are no take-backs."

Qingcheng said seriously, "Just reveal the dice. But if you can't pay, I'll take the casino as repayment."

The dealer lifted the dice cup. One, one, one—the three dice had all landed on one.

Everyone cried out, "How is that possible? Another triple! This is rigged!"

The casino owner was also stunned, his heart bleeding. Terrified, he thought, That's 15 billion Ryo in payouts. What am I supposed to do? Then he thought of something and shouted, "Bring Boshima here!"

The dealer shouted in panic, "Boss, come over here! This guy is cheating!"
