Izuna immediately reached out and took it.
The golden badge landed in his palm.
The next second, Izuna also picked up another badge from the table and handed it to Tobirama.
"Your."
The Tobirama the badge.
Both badges lit up with golden light at the same time.
After the light faded, the names of the two people appeared on the back of the badge.
Tobirama Senju.
Uchiha Izuna.
Hashirama stared wide-eyed.
Ban also glanced at the two badges a few more times.
Asura burst out laughing.
"You two did indeed choose each other."
Izuna immediately retorted.
"It's just that other people aren't suitable."
Tobirama carefully put the badge away.
"That's what I think too."
Before Zhang Yu could even speak, system notifications began appearing one after another.
[bite!]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a new CP Pairing Achievement!]
[bite!]
[ Tobirama Senju and Uchiha Izuna have teamed up!]
[bite!]
[Congratulations, host, you have received 1,000,000 gold coins.]
[bite!]
[Current host balance: 4,975,000 gold coins.]
Zhang Yu looked at the reward and nodded in satisfaction.
One million gold coins.
It's definitely much faster than a regular task.
Just as Tobirama and Izuna sat down, Hashirama also made a move.
He picked up a badge and walked straight toward Ban.
"Spot."
Ban looked up at him.
What are you doing?
"For you."
Hashirama handed the badge to him.
I've thought about it for a long time.
In the end, I still think this badge should be yours.
Ban remained silent for a few seconds.
He did not refuse.
After receiving the badge, Madara also picked one up from the table and placed it in Hashirama's hand.
"Here you go."
Hashirama looked down at the badge, his smile impossible to hide.
The two badges shone with golden light once more.
The names of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha appear on the back of the badges.
Everyone in the lobby was watching the two of them.
Izuna's expression was complicated.
Tobirama raised his hand and pressed it to his forehead.
Zhang Yu leaned back on the sofa and asked with a smile, "Have you exchanged all the badges?"
"Shouldn't you two also discuss your wedding plans?"
Hashirama's face flushed red.
"Boss!"
"It's just an identity badge!"
Ban's face also quickly turned red.
"Who wants to discuss marriage with him?"
I was just asking casually.
Seeing their reactions, Zhang Yu's smile widened.
A system prompt then appeared.
[bite!]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a new CP Pairing Achievement!]
[bite!]
[" Hashirama Senju " and " Madara Uchiha " have teamed up!]
[bite!]
[Congratulations, host, you have received 3,000,000 gold coins.]
[bite!]
[Current host balance: 7,975,000 gold coins.]
Three million!
Zhang Yu immediately sat up straight.
The reward for Hashirama and Madara is three times higher than that for Tobirama and Izuna.
Before he could ask any further questions, Asura had already picked up one of the last two badges.
He came before Indra.
"Big brother."
This one is for you.
Indra took the badge and handed the last one to Asura.
"Keep it safe."
Their badges lit up simultaneously.
The names of Indra and Asura then appeared.
[bite!]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a new CP Pairing Achievement!]
[bite!]
Indra and Asura have combined!
[bite!]
[Congratulations, host, you have received 2,000,000 gold coins.]
[bite!]
[Current host balance: 9,975,000 gold coins.]
Zhang Yu stared at the final balance for a few seconds.
Only 25,000 are needed.
We're just one regular task away from reaching ten million.
He then looked at the rewards for the three groups.
One million.
Three million.
Two million.
The difference is huge.
"System, why are the rewards different even though we're completing the same combination?"
[The reward amount is calculated based on the overall strength of both teams.]
Zhang Yu understood.
Hashirama and Madara were the strongest, so they received the highest rewards.
Asura and Indra are ranked second.
Tobirama and Izuna received one million.
I'm only 25,000 gold coins short of the summoning fee for the Sage of Six Paths.
Zhang Yu was in a great mood.
"Alright."
"All the badges have been distributed."
"You can all go about your business."
Hashirama was still studying the name on the back of the badge.
Ban glanced at him.
What's so interesting about it?
This is the first time we've received the same badge.
"Shut up."
Ban turned and left.
Hashirama quickly gave chase.
"Ban, wait for me."
Tobirama and Izuna also left one after the other.
Asura and Indra put away their badges and went to the backyard.
Zhang Yu sat in the front hall for a while, then got up and went to the backyard.
Beside the fishpond, Shiro, Kaori, and Uzuki Yugao were sitting on the bank fishing.
Three fishing rods were set up by the water.
Several fish were already in the wooden bucket next to it.
Xiang heard footsteps and turned around to look.
" Zhang Yu, you're awake?"
"I've been awake for a while."
Zhang Yu walked over to the three of them.
What are you fishing for?
Bai put down his fishing rod, stood up, and said, " Boss Zhang Yu."
We're planning to make braised fish for lunch.
Zhang Yu looked at her.
What did you call me last night?
Bai stopped moving.
She immediately remembered what she had said while drunk the night before.
Brother Zhang Yu.
Thinking of this, her cheeks quickly flushed red.
"I was drunk last night."
"The things you said when you were drunk were also your words."
Zhang Yu reminded him, "Don't call me 'boss' anymore."
Bai lowered his head.
After a few seconds, she spoke softly.
" Brother Zhang Yu."
"The sound is too soft."
" Brother Zhang Yu."
This time it was much clearer than before.
Zhang Yu nodded in satisfaction.
Xiang put down her fishing rod and walked over with a smile.
"So I can't call you by your name either?"
"Certainly."
Xiang didn't hesitate at all.
She approached Zhang Yu, her voice sweet and clear.
" Brother Zhang Yu."
Is this okay?
"Can."
Zhang Yu looked at the last person.
Uzuki Yugao was still sitting by the fishpond.
She held the fishing rod, seemingly oblivious to the conversation that had just taken place.
Zhang Yu walked up behind her.
" Yugao."
"Boss."
"You called me by the wrong name."
Yugao turned around.
" Lord Zhang Yu."
"It was still wrong."
Yugao stood up, her expression somewhat helpless.
That's how I've always addressed you.
"Start changing it today."
"Why?"
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and then said directly, "Let's add a new rule to the tavern."
"All women who see me must call me brother."
Yugao was stunned.
"There's such a rule?"
"Now we have it."
"But I'm older than Bai and Xiang."
"So what?"
Calling him "brother" is inappropriate.
Am I younger than you?
Yugao couldn't answer.
Zhang Yu continued, "Bai can make a sound, Xiang can make a sound, why can't you?"
"I..."
Are you from the tavern?
"Yes."
"Should we follow the tavern's rules?"
"Want."
What should I call you then?
Yugao gripped the fishing rod in her hand.
Bai and Xiang stood to the side, all looking at her.
Yugao's cheeks gradually turned red.
She remained silent for a long time before whispering, " Brother Zhang Yu."
Zhang Yu shook his head.
"I can't hear you."
"Louder!"
