Naruto: Kakashi is back with the system

Chapter 51 Debt Collection and Working to Pay Debts

Sarutobi Hiruzen was surprised to hear someone coming, but he still let the person in.

When they saw the first person coming, Tsunade and Jiraiya froze.

This person was none other than the boss of the gambling house whom they had forgotten about.

"Kakashi it's getting late, you should go back."

Tsunade, who didn't want to embarrass herself in front of outsiders, quickly spoke up to send Kakashi back.

It was indeed getting late, the sun was already setting, and it would not be long before the Hokage would be off work.

Kakashi didn't refuse, he just looked at the man curiously and left.

Curiosity kills the cat. Although he is curious, he can control himself.

Although Kakashi left, the matter did not end there.

The gambling house boss breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tsunade and Jiraiya were there.

It's good that they are here, so that Konoha's Third Hokage won't accuse him of talking nonsense. If they are here, they won't have to look for people to verify it everywhere.

The boss of the gambling house reached into his shirt and felt around, then took out a thin booklet and handed it to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Third Hokage, this is all the gambling debts your disciple owes in my gambling house. Please take a look."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was originally curious about what was written in the booklet, suddenly felt that the booklet in his hand was a little hot.

He only knew that his master, the first Hokage, loved gambling, but he didn't expect that his granddaughter had completely inherited his master's hobby.

Even the habit of losing every time he gambles is 100% inherited.

Even better than the master.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the bill in his hand and sighed helplessly.

It’s all the fault of the first Hokage. Why didn’t he just teach his granddaughter properly but had to teach her how to gamble?

This little Tsunade is much better at gambling than the first Hokage.

At least the commissions earned by the first Hokage even during the war-torn era were enough to pay off his gambling debts, and no one ever came to collect the debt.

No, it seems like there were a few times like that?

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it carefully, and finally dug out some scattered memories from the corner of his mind.

It seemed that there were several times when the Second Hokage scolded the First Hokage particularly harshly, and there was an unfamiliar person next to him.

And every time something like that happened, they had to tighten their belts for a while.

Now that I think about it, it must be that the master chef was chased by someone to collect gambling debts.

Although the income level of ninjas is very high, and although the Sarutobi family is not small and has its own industry, he has not been on a mission for many years and to pay the 1000 million taels he would have to empty his small treasury.

But there is no way, disciples are like children, they are all debts!

After paying the money, Sarutobi Hiruzen sent the cheerful gambling boss away with a forced smile.

The boss of the gambling house was very happy. He got such a large gambling debt paid off. Most of the bad debts of the gambling house were gone at once. The boss would definitely be very happy.

Compared with the promotion and salary increase, the long journey seems nothing.

Unlike the cheerful gambling house boss, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not in a very good mood.

His heart was bleeding, because that was the little piggy bank he had worked so hard to save!

Now it's all gone.

"You two guys must stay here and pay your debt! You can leave only when you have paid your debt!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a gloomy face. He was originally happy when Tsunade said that she would be in charge of Kakashi's Chunin Exam, thinking that they could stay in the village for a longer time.

Now... he just wanted these two evil disciples to disappear from his sight as soon as possible.

But no, they have to stay and work to pay off their debts!

Otherwise, wouldn’t his own little treasury be wasted?

"There are several S-rank missions here, Jiraiya, go and do them!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen handed several mission scrolls to Jiraiya, and naturally he would not forget the culprit, "Tsunade, you will go to Konoha Hospital for the time being!"

Jiraiya: What does this have to do with me? It's not my gambling debt!

But looking at his teacher's face that was so black that ink was about to drip out, Jiraiya said he didn't dare to say anything.

Tsunade didn't dare to have any opinion, after all, it was she who caused the trouble.

Although she is hemophobic, her medical skills are not exaggerated. There will always be work in Konoha Hospital that does not involve blood that she can do.

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand tiredly and told them to leave quickly.

Alas, it is a sin to have so many disciples.

After leaving the Hokage's office building and returning to his deserted little house, Jiraiya felt a little lonely.

Pulling off the dust sheet covering the bed, Jiraiya fell directly onto the bed.

After lying down for a while to relieve the fatigue from the journey, Jiraiya opened the mission scroll given to him by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

After reading through the scrolls, Jiraiya couldn't help but frown.

Why are all the missions about transporting confidential documents?

S-level missions are generally divided into assassinating important figures, transporting confidential documents, massacring villages and destroying cities, etc.

Among them, assassination missions are the most common, followed by the mission of transporting confidential documents.

In the eyes of those politicians, a ninja is just a sword.

Since it is a knife, it should be used to kill people!

But among the five mission scrolls the old man gave him, none of them were assassination or protection missions.

It’s weird.

At the same time, Jiraiya had a bad feeling in his heart.

It seems that before the outbreak of the Second Ninja World War, there was a long period of time when spy missions were the main component.

Although he had not seen Konoha's B-level mission registration scroll, these five S-level missions seemed to have hinted at something.

……

In the early morning light, Kakashi packed his bags, said goodbye to his father and prepared to leave the village.

The certificate for leaving the village was brought back for him by his father when he came back last night, so he can set off directly today.

"Jiraiya-sama."

Kakashi was a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet Jiraiya at the entrance of the village.

Although I don't know when Jiraiya returned to the village, I think he shouldn't have returned much earlier than me.

Why do we have to leave the village after just one night?

Kakashi naturally didn't know what happened in the Hokage's office after he left.

After he returned, he was pestered by Dunton, who asked him to tell him the interesting stories he had encountered along the way.

Having a physical body has both advantages and disadvantages for Dunton. The advantage is that he can eat delicious food instead of only being able to exchange energy for some flavors.

The downside is that he is confined to the Konoha Village and cannot go out and play freely.

If only this were a world of cultivating immortals, he could dress up as a spirit pet and follow Kakashi around openly.

In fact, Jiraiya and Tsunade came back just after Kakashi, and the gate-guarding ninja went to report the news of Kakashi's return to the Third Hokage, so he missed it.

"Hey, it's Kakashi! You just came back yesterday and you're already preparing for a mission? Don't you need to take a break?"

"Well~ Go early and come back early~" Kakashi responded meaninglessly.

"Master Jiraiya, are you ready to embark on another adventure?"
