I Could Do It Too

Upon hearing the Hokage's words that Hayakumo Sōma stared at Tsunade in shock. Her frenzied appearance and astonishing running speed made the ground creak.

Then, Hayakumo Sōma said in a panic, "Lord Hokage, I dare not stop Lady Tsunade. I'm afraid I'll be killed by her Chakra Enhanced Strength. I'm giving you all this money, Lord Hokage. It's a total of 78.2 billion Ryo. Lord Hokage! I'm a weakling, so I'll be going now. Don't blame me, Lady Tsunade's strength is getting more and more monstrous."

After saying that, Hayakumo Sōma immediately used the Body Flicker Technique and ran towards Konoha's camp, not daring to make contact with Tsunade at this moment.

Qingcheng looked at Hayakumo Sōma who was running away and said with a look of disappointment, "Don't go! Protect me! I am the Hokage, what are you afraid of Tsunade? Hayakumo Sōma, come back and protect me!"

As Qingcheng watched Hayakumo Sōma running further and further away, and Tsunade getting closer and closer, he immediately activated his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and directly activated Yomotsu Hirasaka, collecting all the money on the ground into the Yomi Space.

Because storing money in Sealing Scroll requires Hand Seals to open the scroll, and then you have to fill it up in piles. But with Yomotsu Hirasaka's Dōjutsu, the money can be instantly transferred to the Yomi Space.

Seeing so much money taken away by Uchiha Qingcheng, Tsunade shouted angrily, "You inherently evil and greedy Uchiha Clan! You hogged all the money yourself! You're truly wicked! I order you to hand over the money, or I'll lose it!"

Qingcheng looked at Tsunade, who was filled with rage, her eyes like lanterns, fixed on him as if she wanted to devour him.

Cough cough cough,

Qingcheng coughed lightly a few times, then covered his mouth with his hand, and said with a smile, "What are you talking about? Are we that close? Aren't you eating premium Royal Jelly at home? Why are you here? Are you following me?"

Qingcheng looked at the fuming Tsunade, who seemed Teuchi at any moment, and then emphasized, "There's one more thing! I need to make it clear first, this was given to the village by Hayakumo Sōma, for me to take back to Konoha. You need to know that Konoha's economic situation isn't very good right now. As the Hokage of Konoha, how can I line my own pockets? Even if you are my most... most, most favorite woman, I can't give you a share of the money."

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Tsunade said with a serious expression, "Isn't the village's finances very wealthy? There are still over 50 billion yen left, all of which you sent your Police Force to the Land of Fire to steal. Don't think I don't know anything. Don't think you can control everything in Konoha."

Qingcheng looked at Tsunade's fierce face and laughed, then said seriously, "You are the granddaughter of the First Hokage, you must abide by the Three Ninja Prohibitions. Money stolen like this is not clean. I'm leaving now. You stay here and train your Wood Release!"

Looking at Tsunade, Qingcheng chuckled and said, "I remember there's another technique! An incredibly powerful Wood Release Ninjutsu called Wood Release: Wood Human Technique. It's Ninjutsu that's completely on Susanoo. You can practice it slowly! Bye-bye, the naturally evil Tsunade,"

After saying that, Qingcheng turned around and headed towards Konoha's Earth Flow, intending to get away from that greedy and foolish woman.

Qingcheng thought to himself, "This naturally stupid Tsunade never does anything productive all Tenten. She's either gambling or causing me trouble. I should find something for her to do and keep her away from the power center of Konoha so I can act more freely."

Qingcheng plans to go to the Shikkotsu Forest to cultivate Senjutsu and elevate his Sage Body to a higher level, becoming Advanced Sage Body. This would significantly increase his strength, allowing him to break through Tsunade's Sage Body and avoid being completely Tsunade in the future.

Qingcheng was also very puzzled. He had tried so hard for Tsunade, and six or seven days had passed, but he hadn't seen any reward sent by the system.

Qingcheng thought to himself, "It probably can't be broken through Tsunade's Sage Body. Everyone's level is about the same, Sage Body is immune to this. That should be it."

Just then, Tsunade grabbed Qingcheng by the neck and pressed him against her chest, then said with a smile, "Hokage -sama, could you share some with me? You know I'm a refined girl, and I sometimes want to gamble."

More than ten minutes later~

Qingcheng waved his hand dismissively, then pulled Tsunade's hand away, immediately sticking his head out and saying awkwardly, "Don't do this, you're going to weld me to death, I can't breathe! I understand the logic, but you can't take too much. I can only give you 500 million, the rest of the Ryo, I really want to take back to the village."

Seeing that Qingcheng was still dodging and making excuses, Tsunade straightened her chest, grabbed Qingcheng's head, and pressed it against her chest.

Just then, Tsunade suddenly felt her chest get wet and sticky, and immediately cursed, "You bastard, you're drooling! You're disgusting! The Uchiha Clan's willpower is so weak! Pay me back now, or I'll change Tomoki's surname. What do you think about calling him Senju Yuuki?"

Qingcheng quickly stuck his head out, gasped for breath in the air, and said with a bewildered look, "Is this even possible? I already gave you over 20 billion Ryo, and you still have a mountain of debt from the casino. How can you do this?"

Seeing Tsunade about to press his head again, Qingcheng quickly waved his Tsunade to step back, and then said, "You're going too far. I'm the most righteous Hokage in history. You can't treat me like this. Besides, the Konoha Casino are all run by the Uchiha Clan. Why don't you just go and gamble? I don't need you to spend any money."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade said with a serious expression, "What's the point of gambling if you don't put money in? Even if you win, you can't get the money out, so you're just wasting your time. I'm going to put money in and bankrupt your family's casino."

The Konoha Grand Casino is located on the main street of Konoha. The storefront and premises belong to the Uchiha Clan. Inside, card games are played using chips. It's run by people arranged by Uchiha Yamafuku. The games are all very advanced; dice games are outdated.

Tsunade's favorite games were Dragon Tiger Battle and fruit machines. She'd always lose everything, even with a 500 million coin bet. Many Konoha Ninja used Tsunade as a street lamp, having won a considerable amount of money at the gambling tables.

Finally, even Uchiha Yamafuku couldn't stand it anymore and secretly manipulated things to let Tsunade win some money, giving Tsunade the illusion that "I could do it too."
