He turned back to look at the coffin.
There's no one else here.
When I came in, I only saw you collapsed against the wall.
Orochimaru stared intently at the two coffins.
"They came out from inside."
"They said it's possible to reverse the resuscitation through residual surgical techniques."
"They even said they could find me no matter where I went."
Dou frowned.
This claim is completely inconsistent with the principles of Impure World Reincarnation.
But the coffin was indeed placed in the room.
Given Orochimaru's current physical condition, it would be impossible for him to perform the technique alone.
" Lord Orochimaru."
You may be experiencing hallucinations due to excessive pain.
Hallucination?
Orochimaru stared at the coffin on the ground.
"Then what is this?"
Dou couldn't answer.
He has already checked it.
The coffin is real.
Wood Release Chakra remained on it.
But he couldn't continue speaking along with Orochimaru's lines.
Orochimaru is in a very poor mental state right now, and any further stimulation will only make his body weaker.
"Drink your medicine first."
Dou picked up the medicine bowl again.
"This medicine should suppress the pain in your hands."
Orochimaru did not refuse.
He spooned the medicine to his lips, one spoonful at a time.
Orochimaru drank very quickly.
I choked twice during the process, but I didn't stop.
His breathing only calmed down slightly after the entire bowl of medicine was finished.
"Pocket."
"Exist."
Pack your things.
Orochimaru stared at the two coffins.
Leave Tanzaku Town immediately.
Dou was somewhat surprised.
"Now?"
"Now!"
Orochimaru suddenly raised his voice.
There's a ghost here!
We can't stay here any longer!
They will come back!
Seeing the terrified look on his face, Dou could only nod.
"Clear."
I'll get ready right away.
Inside the Tanzaku Town Hotel.
A spatial vortex appeared in Zhang Yu's bedroom.
Zhang Yu, Hashirama, and Tobirama landed one after another.
As soon as Hashirama returned, he removed his armor.
"Boss."
"Remember to call me next time you have a similar task."
"Dressing up as a ghost is more fun than fighting."
Tobirama straightened his sleeves.
"This kind of task is enough if it happens only once in a while."
Orochimaru is already on guard; he might not trust him again next time.
Hashirama looked at him.
You were clearly the one who acted most seriously just now.
"I was just doing the task my boss assigned."
"You even deliberately turned your head away."
"That's part of the plan."
Zhang Yu walked to the door.
"Alright."
"Go back and eat first."
The three of them went to the suite next door.
Bai and Shizune have prepared dinner.
Several hot dishes and a pot of soup were laid out on the table.
Tsunade was already sitting at the table waiting.
Upon seeing Zhang Yu enter, she immediately looked behind him.
"Grandfather and second grandfather are here too?"
Hashirama sat down next to her.
"I haven't eaten yet."
" Little Tsunade, get me a set of bowls and chopsticks."
Tsunade asked, "Where did you all go?"
Hashirama looked at Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu pulled out a chair and sat down.
"I went out to take care of some errands."
"What's up?"
Tobirama had already moved to the other side.
"It's none of your business."
Tsunade glared at him.
"Second Grandfather, I was just asking."
"Let's eat first."
Bai brought out two more sets of bowls and chopsticks.
Everyone sat down around the table.
Shizune served Tsunade a bowl of soup.
Zhang Yu took out two bottles of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) and was about to place them in front of him when Tsunade reached out and took one of them.
"The wine from last night?"
"Right."
"Give me."
You were drunk yesterday.
That's better than alcohol.
Tsunade unscrewed the bottle cap.
"Just two drinks today."
Hashirama smelled the sake and immediately handed over his cup.
" Little Tsunade."
"Pour some for Grandfather."
Tobirama initially remained silent.
After Tsunade filled Hashirama, he placed his own cup on the table.
I'll only have one drink.
Zhang Yu looked at the two empty bottles on the table.
"Five hundred thousand taels for one bottle."
Tsunade stopped pouring the wine.
"It wasn't this price last night."
"The alcohol used in last night's competition."
Zhang Yu took the other bottle back.
"Sell at the normal price today."
Tsunade glanced at the sake bottle in her hand.
Five thousand taels.
"Fifty thousand taels."
Why are you raising prices again?
Five hundred thousand taels.
Tsunade nearly smashed the bottle on the table.
"Five hundred thousand?"
"That's right."
Zhang Yu pointed to the few glasses of wine she had just poured out.
"The bottle has already been opened and cannot be returned."
Hashirama looked down at the wine in his cup.
Tobirama also fell silent.
Tsunade gritted her teeth.
" Shizune."
"Give me the money."
Shizune sitting beside her, her body instantly stiffened.
Tsunade urged her again.
Where's the purse?
Shizune whispered, " Lady Tsunade."
"Our money is all with Boss Zhang Yu."
Tsunade looked completely puzzled.
Why did it end up in his hands?
Zhang Yu picked up his chopsticks.
"I paid for all your food, lodging, shopping, and purchases these past few days."
"Your drinks also need to be charged."
Tsunade looked at Shizune.
The Shizune only allows nodding.
"The two million taels I brought back from the black market yesterday have already been used to pay for the drinks."
"The remaining money was later given to Boss Zhang Yu for safekeeping."
Tsunade was stunned for a long time.
So I don't have a single penny now?
"No."
Zhang Yu took the bottle back from her hand.
"This bottle will also be deducted from your payment."
Tsunade pressed down on the bottle opening.
The wine has already been opened.
"Of course I'll finish it."
Hashirama immediately picked up his wine cup.
"We can't waste it."
Tobirama nodded in agreement.
"The bottle has already been opened, so it's definitely not suitable to take it back."
The three of them worked together and quickly divided the wine on the table.
Zhang Yu originally only took out two bottles.
Not satisfied with just finishing the bottle, Tsunade tricked him into giving her a few more.
Hashirama and Tobirama were also helping out.
One of them was in charge of urging people to drink.
One of them was responsible for changing the subject.
Before the meal was even over, seven or eight bottles of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) were already empty.
Zhang Yu looked at Tsunade, who was clutching the wine bottle tightly, and did not stop her.
The simplest way to control someone who loves to drink is to first spoil their palate.
Once Tsunade becomes completely addicted to Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) and can no longer drink ordinary alcohol, she will naturally come to him for help.
Inoichi Yamanaka and Hyuga Hiashi were willing to try to please him just to get a drink.
Tsunade will be no exception.
After a satisfying meal, Hashirama leaned back in his chair and asked, "Boss?"
When are we going back to Konoha?
Zhang Yu glanced at him.
"You don't want to go back?"
"I was just asking casually."
Hashirama picked up the empty wine glass.
"I've been away from the tavern for so many days, I wonder how business is going."
Tobirama exposed him directly.
"You want to see Madara."
Hashirama immediately retorted.
Who wants to see him?
"You asked Ban when he'd be back last night."
"I'm just worried about someone causing trouble at the bar."
"The boss has already put Izuna in charge of keeping an eye on him."
" Izuna can't control the freckles."
Tobirama looked at him.
So you want to go back and check it out yourself.
Hashirama opened his mouth.
Tsunade burst out laughing.
"Grandfather."
"Just say you want to see him."
"Nobody's stopping you."
"I really don't miss him."
The more Hashirama explained, the louder Tsunade laughed.
