Tsunade's Monster Strength!

Half a day had passed before he knew it; time truly flew by.

"Continue, next!"

Everyone proceeded in an orderly fashion.

They would step onto the ring, launch two attacks, and then collect their rewards before stepping down—some were overjoyed, while others were filled with sorrow.

Some opened rewards they were satisfied with, while others found the results fell quite short of their expectations.

However, with Sasuke as a precedent, no one dared to beg Zhou Cheng for another chance.

They could only wait for tomorrow's ring matches.

Quite a few people, already hungry to the point of feeling faint, left the base of the ring to go eat lunch.

Zhou Cheng was naturally hungry as well, so he took a skewer of beef balls out of his system space and began to eat.

As one entered his mouth, it was the taste from his memories.

It couldn't help but make him think of his life in his past world.

Back then, he was a beast of burden for capitalists, and even after transmigrating, he was still a beast of burden—the only difference was that his employer had become the system.

Someone else stepped onto the stage, and Zhou Cheng's eyes lit up.

With long blonde hair tied into two ponytails, her walk was like rolling thunder, making Zhou Cheng stare straight ahead, transfixed.

Tsunade!

She had finally stepped onto the stage!

"I didn't expect that one of the legendary Sannin, Princess Senju, would actually be interested in my ring!"

Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, many people looked toward Tsunade, only then realizing who she was.

The disciple of the Third Hokage, one of the Hidden Leaf's renowned Sannin, and the princess of the Senju Clan—Senju Tsunade.

"I never thought Lady Tsunade would step onto the ring!"

"She's a veteran Kage-level powerhouse!"

"Is someone like her actually interested in the rewards?"

"That's a silly thing to say; chakra is the foundation of every ninja. No one would ever complain about having too much of it."

"I'm just worried that Lady Tsunade might not look favorably upon those rewards."

Tsunade gripped one fist with her other hand, causing her knuckles to crack with a rhythmic popping sound.

Zhou Cheng's lips curled upward; he wondered what kind of damage a true Kage-level fighter could deal.

Although Shisui had used his Susanoo to attack, he hadn't activated the full form, so it didn't count as a full-power strike.

Otherwise, the damage could have been even higher!

"Kid, can your boxes really contain anything?"

Tsunade remained somewhat skeptical.

She had been watching from below for a long time, and every time a reward was given, the blind box appeared in Zhou Cheng's hand out of thin air.

There were no signs of blind boxes on the ring, leading Tsunade to suspect that Zhou Cheng possessed space-time ninjutsu!

Anyone who understood space-time ninjutsu and could use it proficiently would never be weak.

But why would Zhou Cheng pretend to only have the strength of a Genin?

Such a disguise was something even she, a veteran Kage-level fighter, couldn't see through.

Zhou Cheng smiled faintly. People have even opened items from other worlds, yet you still don't believe it!

"Naturally, provided your luck is good enough!"

The aura around Tsunade began to rise. "If I beat you to death, you really won't hold me accountable?"

Zhou Cheng shrugged. If you can punch through the shield, I'll kowtow to you!

"Do you dare to take a punch from me?"

Zhou Cheng continued to smile faintly, maintaining an inscrutable air, not treating Tsunade like a senior at all.

"I hope you can use some strength; the people before you were a bit boring!"

Hiss!

The people below the stage were all clicking their tongues in amazement.

"Is Zhou Cheng tired of living?"

"Oh, he definitely is!"

"But this is just too arrogant!"

Facing one of the Sannin who made other ninja villages tremble in fear, this was the attitude he chose?

Itachi and Shisui exchanged a glance. Between their senior and Lady Tsunade, who was stronger?

"Kid, you have successfully ignited my rage!"

"Don't go crying to me if you break a few bones in a moment!"

"Also, I won't be paying for this arena!"

Zhou Cheng raised his hand and beckoned to Tsunade with his finger!

"You bastard!"

Tsunade's aura erupted instantly, her chakra gathering in her right fist in a flash.

"Strength Enhancement Technique!"

The chakra on her fist exploded, and she slammed a punch into Zhou Cheng's body.

Boom!

The entire arena shuddered, scaring the surrounding crowd into scrambling backward.

They were terrified that the arena would collapse and crush them.

Then, a massive gust of wind blew over their heads, sweeping across the surroundings.

It startled the birds in the distant trees, causing them to flap their wings and flee in a panic.

This punch possessed immense power!

Tsunade lifted her head, full of confidence.

A punch like this would shatter even solid rock.

The Strength Enhancement Technique was, after all, a unique ability of the Senju Clan.

The next second, her smile froze on her face.

The scene she had envisioned, of Zhou Cheng being sent flying, did not occur.

He stood firmly in place, not having retreated a single step.

Tsunade's fist was pressed against his chest, and the two remained in that position.

After the initial tremor, the arena fell silent and did not collapse.

The crowd let out a breath, finally having the presence of mind to look at the situation on the stage.

Had Zhou Cheng's bones broken?

When they looked up, they stood frozen in place, their scalps tingling.

Zhou Cheng was still standing there leisurely, not having retreated even half a step.

Meanwhile, Tsunade's fist was still pressed against his chest, her face filled with astonishment.

"Lady Tsunade, could you please withdraw your hand first? This posture is somewhat ambiguous!"

Tsunade finally snapped out of it and hurriedly pulled her hand back, her face still showing disbelief.

Even Jiraiya, who was also at the Kage level, would have broken a few ribs if he had taken that punch with his bare body.

Yet this kid looked like he hadn't been affected at all!

Could her Strength Enhancement Technique not harm him?

What kind of joke was that?

Just then, a set of numbers floated above Zhou Cheng's head.

-9456.

[Damage dealt: 9456 points]
[Remaining shield HP: 9,999,999,915,128]
[Damage Rank: Blue]
[Reward obtained: Blue Blind Box]

Zhou Cheng glanced at the numbers as they slowly faded away and raised an eyebrow.

These people were all afraid of killing me with their first attack, so they all held back.

They really look down on me—or rather, they look down on the system.

"I am disappointed. Is this the strength of the Sannin?"

Zhou Cheng wore a look of disdain, his mouth curling into a taunt.

He wanted to stir up Tsunade's anger.

"Your attack is not even as painful as a mosquito bite to me!"

This was the truth from Zhou Cheng; mosquitoes weren't within the system's recognition range, so if one bit him, it was just a profit.

"What did you say?"

Tsunade's expression changed instantly, her fists already clenched tight!

The people below the stage also recovered from their stupor.

Did he have any idea what he was saying?

Was his own attack not even comparable to a mosquito bite?

Anyone would find that unbearable.

This was a matter of dignity!

"No way, this is Monstrous Strength!"

"A single punch carries more than a thousand jun of force!"

"Zhou Cheng didn't put up any defense, took this punch head-on, and is acting like nothing happened?"

"Is he even human? Is he made of iron?"

Tsunade had long since cast the reward to the back of her mind and immediately wanted to launch a second attack.

"Don't be so impatient. Even though I was bitten by a mosquito, the reward that is due must still be given!"

Zhou Cheng flipped his hand, and a Blue Blind Box appeared in his palm, which he tossed toward Tsunade.

Seeing the Blue Blind Box, Tsunade's eyes lit up, and she instantly calmed down.

"It doesn't look like anything special."

She held the blind box, turning it over and over, and it looked no different from an ordinary box.

Could this really contain all sorts of treasures?

While filled with doubt, she opened the blind box.

Inside the box sat a bottle filled with a transparent liquid.

[Bottled Six-Grain Spirit x1]

[Originating from a xianxia world, crafted by a powerful being named Six-Grain, it possesses the ability to heal injuries.]

[Though the wine is good, do not overindulge; remember this!]

[Host has received a critical hit reward: Six-Grain Night Brewing Method.]

Zhou Cheng's eye twitched. Are you kidding me? A gambler who is also a drunkard, and the thing she opens is alcohol?

Also, this Six-Grain Spirit is a bit ridiculous. System, come out! I promise I absolutely won't roast you to death!
