Naruto: The Lost Family

In fact, this town, half of which is attached to the cliff, is more like a city.

In fact, it does have a name, called Tanshu Castle.There are buildings here that are famous in many places.

The roof is paved with gray bricks that are of unknown age, giving the tall pavilion an inexplicable air of antiquity.

However, the vast array of pavilions seems to give you a sense of confusion in time and space, as if you have been here at some time or moment.

However, somewhere on the road, two women were running towards Tanshu Castle.

The person running in front still had a proud smile on his face.

Judging from her face, she was only in her twenties, but she had a scheming smile.

A green top with a big word "GAM" written on the back.How addicted a gambler must be to show his stance by displaying this word on his clothes?

The woman running behind her seemed much more well-behaved.Wearing gray clothes, he looks somewhat old-fashioned.

She also has short hair that reaches her ears. If it were another girl, she might look like a tomboy in this outfit.

But this person's body subtly gives people an indescribable sense of beauty.

But now, the cute woman in the back looks extremely helpless and tired.

"Hey, Tsunade-sama, why do we have to run all the way here? And we have to run so fast?"

Tsunade turned her head and said with an unabashed smile, "Because in the last town, I lost all the money I borrowed in gambling."

"..."

Lost all the money you borrowed in gambling?

Shizune felt that she couldn't bear the amount of information brought by this sentence.

Although it was a very short sentence, she seemed to have discovered three things...

"Tsunade-sama, when did you borrow the money? And what happened if you lost the bet? Why didn't I notice these two things at all?"

Shizune's forehead was covered with cold sweat... This was the first time she had done this.

No wonder Tsunade wanted to run away, although with her identity and status, even with her strength, there was no need to run away.

but……

She can't just owe someone else money and still feel confident, right?

After all, Tsunade-sama just habitually evades debts and is not considered a bully.

Faced with this situation, Shizune could only ask weakly, "Tsunade-sama, if you carry out such an action next time, can you inform me in advance?"

"Okay, by the way, I remember that there is an acquaintance of mine in this Tanchu City. Let's ask him to borrow money then. And Tanchu Street is also a very famous gambling venue, isn't it?"

Tsunade looked at the Tanshu Castle that had appeared in front of her. The sight of half of it built on the cliff did not make her feel any surprise.

But after seeing Tanshu Castle, she became interested in gambling again.

"Go there and borrow a large amount of money. After winning the bet, you can pay off all your previous debts!"

Tsunade's voice revealed a strong sense of confidence. If you didn't consider the word "debt" in her words just now, she really felt like a gambling god.

"Borrow...borrow a large sum of money..." Shizune's tone couldn't help but tremble.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Tsunade turned her head, narrowed her eyes, and smiled at Shizune.

 Shizune finally couldn't help but said loudly,

"Of course there is a problem! Tsunade-sama, it's not like you don't know your luck. In this case, I'm afraid you will owe a large debt!"

"Oh, then just owe it. Wait until next time, borrow more money, and win back what you owe this time..."

"..."

Shizune remained silent for a long time, but couldn't help but persuade her, "Tsunade-sama, let's wait a few days before discussing such matters. Can we stay out of the limelight these days?"

"This? Of course."

It was rare for Tsunade to agree with Shizune's opinion.

It seems that the debt owed this time has reached a level that Tsunade-sama must be careful to avoid.

"By the way, Tsunade-sama, you have been away from the village for so long. Why don't you go back to the village to have a look?"

Shizune asked tentatively.

But the next moment, Tsunade's expression suddenly turned gloomy.

"not going back."

Shizune suddenly felt that she had asked the wrong question. She clearly knew that Tsunade-sama had not yet come out of her own shadow.

Just when Shizune was about to say something to divert Tsunade's attention.

Tsunade suddenly opened her arms towards Tanshu Castle, and the gloom on her face was swept away.

"Whatever! Now that I have come to one of the holy places of gambling, I must have a good fight!"

Looking at the high-spirited Tsunade in the sunshine, Shizune couldn't help but sigh, "Although the usual Tsunade-sama is hard to accept, it is much better than the Tsunade-sama who fell into a haze..."

……

"Welcome, do you need anything?" a girl in service attire asked, very respectfully.

Tsunade replied, "Get us two rooms."

Tsunade said as she handed over the money.

"Well, here are your keys, rooms 205 and 206 on the second floor."

In this way, during a simple conversation, Tsunade checked into a small hotel in Tanshu City.

"Let's stay here for a few days and see who can lend me some money."

Tsunade sighed slightly, even though she was addicted to gambling.But it was still difficult to borrow money while escaping from debt, which affected her pace of gambling.

Da da da……

The sound of shoes tapping on the stairs gradually faded away, and Mieko, a waiter at this hotel, could stretch out comfortably.

"There seem to be a lot more people coming to the store recently, but the only ones that are distinctive are the group of customers who came last night, and the customers just now..."

In her mind, she was still stuck in the moment when the woman in her 20s turned around.

In the world of ninjas, there is nothing wrong with writing a word on your back to represent your will.

But this was the first time she saw someone with the word "bet" written on their back, especially since this person was actually a woman.

In her previous impression, those who were addicted to gambling were rude men.

"However, the group of guests who came yesterday are more attractive. The handsome guy who is a little sick always has the urge to hold him in his arms. And the red-haired brother is also very cute. Woolen cloth."

Perhaps it was because Mieko was the only one here, so she couldn't care less about being reserved.Thinking about something infatuatedly... (To be continued.)
