Hashirama clutched his head.
"How long will this digging take?"
Ban's complexion wasn't very good either.
He had roamed the Shinobi World for many years and had seen all sorts of big scenes.
Moving mountains and filling seas are not difficult tasks.
But now, even though he possesses the power to alter the terrain, he has to dig the soil bit by bit with a shovel.
This is more troublesome than having him fight a powerful enemy.
Ban pointed to the tools on the ground.
Six shovels.
"You're planning to make the two of us dig?"
Hashirama immediately looked at Zhang Yu.
"Boss, this won't do."
"Even if Ban and I have enough stamina, such a large pool can't be completed in just one or two days."
"Furthermore, Chakra cannot be used, and the excavated soil must be carried away manually."
"The workload is too great for just the two of us."
Ban did not refute.
Hashirama was right this time.
It's outrageous that two people would dig a 50-meter-long swimming pool with shovels.
Zhang Yu waved his hand.
"Rest assured."
"It's not just the two of you."
Hashirama finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Who else?
I will gather six people.
Zhang Yu said, "One shovel for everyone."
Six people worked together.
Ban looked at him.
"You're digging too?"
Zhang Yu coughed lightly.
"I'm in charge of construction planning and site arrangements."
Madara sneered.
"That means we won't dig."
"The boss needs to have a holistic view."
Zhang Yu answered naturally.
"If everyone just keeps their heads down digging, who will check the depth?"
Hashirama whispered, "We can measure as we dig."
Zhang Yu acted as if he hadn't heard.
"You two stay here for now."
"I'll go find the remaining four."
Hashirama looked at the empty space, still unable to muster any enthusiasm.
"Even six people are tired."
"If I could use Wood Release, I could move the pool all by myself."
"But now we have to dig it up shovel by shovel."
Ban crossed his arms.
"Boring."
Zhang Yu had anticipated this reaction from the two.
Asking the God of Shinobi and the Asura of the Ninja World to dig a swimming pool with shovels, without allowing them to use Chakra, is something no one would be willing to do.
However, he had also prepared conditions.
"There will be additional compensation after the project is completed."
Hashirama raised his head.
What kind of compensation?
Although Ban didn't ask any further questions, his gaze fell on Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu held up one finger.
"Ten bottles of beer for everyone."
Hashirama's eyes lit up.
Ban's arm slowly lowered.
Zhang Yu added, "Unlimited chilled cola will be available during construction."
"Drink as much as you like if you're thirsty."
Hashirama straightened his body.
"Unlimited supply?"
"Right."
"I'll drink as much as you want?"
"Drink as much as you want, as long as you don't waste it."
The bitterness on Hashirama's face had lessened considerably.
Ten bottles of beer.
Unlimited ice-cold cola.
These two things alone are enough to get him working.
Ban, however, remained calm.
"That's all?"
"Of course not."
Zhang Yu extended his second finger.
"Upon completion of the project, each person will receive a bottle of vodka as a reward."
Ban's eyes immediately turned serious.
Hashirama simply bent down and grabbed a shovel.
A bottle of vodka?
"Everyone has one?"
"Yes, they all are."
Hashirama gripped the shovel tightly and turned to look at the open space.
I just thought the workload was too big.
Looking at it now, fifty meters doesn't seem that long.
Twenty meters isn't considered very wide.
With six people digging together, there's a good chance of finishing quickly.
"Boss, don't worry!"
Hashirama hoisted the shovel onto his shoulder.
"Leave this swimming pool to us!"
"I guarantee it will be finished to the dimensions you specified!"
Ban walked over to the shovel and picked one up casually.
"Mark the boundaries first."
"Start digging from the shallow water area."
Hashirama nodded immediately.
"I'll dig on the left."
"Ban, dig on the right side."
Whoever finishes digging their area first gets an extra bottle of beer.
Ban glanced at him.
The boss only said ten bottles per person.
"You pay for the extra bottle."
Hashirama froze.
"Then forget it."
Zhang Yu was very satisfied with the changes in the two men.
Alcohol was indeed more effective than any form of mobilization.
I was just trying to slip away.
Upon hearing that there was vodka, they even picked up a shovel on their own.
"Don't rush to dig."
Zhang Yu said, "Let's start work once all six people are here."
"You stay here and keep an eye on the tools."
Hashirama, gripping the shovel, asked, "Boss, who are you looking for?"
"You'll find out soon."
Zhang Yu turned and left the open space.
He crossed the backyard and returned to the tavern's front hall.
Bai stood by the bar, wearing a blue and white sailor uniform, arranging the glasses.
Sakura, dressed in her usual ninja outfit, helped tidy up the desk that had just been cleared out.
The two people standing together have very different styles.
The white sailor uniform was originally the uniform for bar hostesses.
The blue collar is paired with a white top, and the cuffs and hem of the skirt also maintain the same color scheme.
Sakura's ninja outfit is more suitable for training and missions.
Working in a tavern felt somewhat out of place.
Zhang Yu stopped in front of the bar.
" Sakura."
Sakura immediately turned around.
" Boss Zhang Yu."
What training arrangements are there?
"Let's not train yet."
Zhang Yu looked her up and down in her ninja outfit.
You'll be working at the tavern from now on.
"Their uniforms should be standardized too."
Sakura looked down at herself, then at Haku beside her.
Bai also stopped what he was doing.
Zhang Yu directly opened the System Shop and found the tavern uniform category.
A blue and white sailor uniform matching Bai's quickly appeared on the panel.
The price is not high.
He bought it directly.
The gift box appeared in my hand.
Zhang Yu handed the box to Sakura.
"For you."
Sakura quickly caught it.
"Clothing?"
"Open it and take a look."
Sakura placed the gift box on the table and opened the lid.
The complete blue and white sailor uniform was folded inside.
She wore a top, a skirt, and matching stockings—everything she needed.
The clothes are a clean color.
The size was also prepared according to her body shape.
Sakura picked up the shirt and glanced at it a few times; she couldn't suppress the smile playing on her lips.
"Is this what I'm supposed to wear when I work at the pub?"
"Right."
Zhang Yu said, "From now on, everyone working at the tavern will wear this outfit."
"If you perform well, we'll send you other styles later."
Sakura hugged the clothes, her joy even more evident on her face.
She had always thought the white sailor uniform looked great.
However, this kind of clothing had never appeared in Konoha before, and she didn't know where to find it.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yu had prepared a set for her directly.
Sakura glanced at Shiro and asked softly, "Is it the same as what Shiro is wearing?"
Same style.
Zhang Yu nodded.
"The colors and styles are the same."
Sakura immediately picked up the gift box.
"I'll go change it right now!"
She ran towards the locker room, her pace even faster than during her usual training sessions.
After closing the door, Zhang Yu looked at Bai.
Bai continued to lower his head and adjust the wine glasses.
The blue and white sailor uniform looked perfectly natural on him.
A delicate face.
A soft voice.
In addition, she has a slender figure.
She looks like a young girl no matter how you look at it.
If you didn't know his identity beforehand, no one would ever guess he was a boy.
Even Sakura, who once saw Haku in the Land of Waves, hasn't been able to fully confirm it yet.
