Whoosh…
Takumi just shook the cup symbolically and placed it on the ground.
Then, he watched Tsunade's performance.
After Tsunade set hers down, she uncovered her cup.
One, three, four, six, six… twenty points, slightly high.
"I guess high."
Before Tsunade could speak, Takumi said directly.
Then he lifted his own cup.
One, three, five, six, six… twenty-one points!
Exactly one point higher than Tsunade's!
Tsunade's eyes widened in shock.
"Tsunade-sama, according to our agreement..."
"Wait!"
Shizune knew Tsunade didn't want to go back, but she also didn't want Tsunade to break her word, especially to a child.
At times like this, she needed to stir the pot.
"Deciding it in one round is too rash."
"It should be best of three at the very least!"
"Otherwise, how can we see the difference in skill between the two sides?"
Shizune said shamelessly.
"Right!"
Tsunade also came to her senses.
"That round was too fast… I didn't even get to show my true skills!"
"In that case…"
Takumi smiled and said.
"Let's make it ten rounds."
"If I lose even one round, I lose!"
Hearing this…
Whoosh…
The onlookers gathered around immediately erupted in an uproar.
"Damn, this kid is too arrogant!"
"Looking down on Tsunade?"
"Hey kid, Tsunade might have bad luck, but it's not 100% bad. Doing this is too reckless!"
"Yeah! Not losing a single round out of ten, how is that possible!"
"This kid is probably here to give Tsunade a handout."
Ino, Sakura, and the others also looked anxious!
Ten consecutive rounds, losing just one means Takumi loses? This is... you'd need brain damage for ten years to come up with something like this!
"Takumi-kun..."
Everyone stared at Takumi nervously.
"Don't worry. Since I said it, I must be confident."
Takumi comforted them with a smile.
Then, he looked at Tsunade.
"So? Do you dare?"
"Why wouldn't I dare? You said it yourself!"
"Let's gamble!"
Tsunade gritted her teeth.
'This brat actually dares to look down on me!'
'I'll make him regret it!'
Both sides began preparations.
Instantly, all the spectators in the gambling den crowded around.
"This young man is too confident, isn't he?"
"Even with Tsunade's terrible luck, she can't possibly lose ten rounds in a row, right?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Is he joking?"
"But they've already started."
"Is this young man really going to compete like this?"
The surrounding whispers reached Takumi's ears.
He smiled unconcernedly.
'You all probably don't know my true power!'
Tsunade continued to be the dealer… she wanted to control the initiative.
Clatter clatter clatter~~~
She continued shaking the dice confidently.
After a series of flashy moves, she slammed the dice cup onto the ground with a 'smack'.
Only then did Takumi pick up his cup, give it a shake, and place it on the ground.
Seeing Takumi so perfunctory, Tsunade couldn't help but grit her teeth.
'I'll make you regret it right away!'
Uncovering the cup…
There are five sixes again!
Tsunade's face immediately turned bright red.
The surroundings immediately erupted in hearty laughter.
Takumi also didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
'In a game like this, it seemed I could win ten rounds in a row even without using Incredible Luck.'
"Low."
He said, uncovering his cup.
One, two, three, four, five.
"Again!"
Tsunade shouted loudly, lifted the cup, and shook it vigorously.
One, one, one, one, one.
Tsunade's face immediately flushed deep red.
The people around also continued laughing joyfully.
"High."
Six, five, four, three, two.
Third round.
Dealer: Tsunade.
One, three, four, five, five.
Tsunade nodded with satisfaction.
This number was more normal.
The people around also held back their laughter.
The previous two rounds could be won with eyes closed…
But this time wouldn't be so easy.
The maximum for five dice is thirty points.
Tsunade's points this time were eighteen, only three points above the midpoint.
This left many possibilities.
"Low."
Takumi didn't hesitate at all.
As he spoke, he removed his cup.
One, two, one, two, one.
Won again!
Tsunade couldn't help but grit her teeth.
"Continue!"
Fourth round.
One, two, three, five, five.
Sixteen points!
The onlookers' expressions became serious.
The closer the number is to the middle, the harder it is to guess high or low next.
Yet Takumi still didn't hesitate in the slightest.
"High."
Uncover the cup.
Three, three, four, five, six.
Won again!
Fifth round.
Sweat was already appearing on Tsunade's forehead.
'What the hell? Lost four rounds in a row?'
'Is this for real!'
Tsunade shook the cup with a very serious expression, then put it down solemnly and uncovered the cup.
Two, three, three, four, six.
Eighteen points...
'This skill…'
'Continuously landing in the middle range.'
'In this situation, the probability of guessing correctly three times in a row is very small.'
Everyone couldn't help but look at Takumi.
"Can he still win?"
"Shouldn't he lose one round by now?"
"I don't believe he can win this one too!"
However...
"Low."
Takumi decisively picked up his cup.
One, two, three, three, three.
Won again!
Sixth round.
By now, Tsunade's hand holding the cup was trembling slightly.
"Hey, what's going on? Are you cheating?"
Tsunade asked somewhat incredulously.
Losing six rounds in a row, this couldn't just be attributed to bad luck anymore.
This was straight-up a scene of mysticism!
This time…
Tsunade's movements were much more restrained.
She no longer shook the cup flashily.
Instead, she focused more attention on Takumi.
She wanted to see how Takumi was guessing so easily, and wanted to find out if he was really cheating!
Uncover the cup.
Three, three, three, four, four.
Seventeen points.
After seeing Tsunade's points, everyone looked at Takumi.
By now, the previous disdain for Takumi's bold statement had completely vanished.
In their eyes, there was only shock and incredulity!
Guessing high or low correctly six times in a row with these point totals.
The luck was just too good!
So good that they couldn't believe it was just luck!
"This round... this round should be: Low."
Takumi casually picked up his cup.
Two, two, two, three, three.
Low. Won again!
The entire scene exploded!
"Holy crap! He won again!"
"Seven wins in a row? What the hell kind of joke is this?"
"Is he cheating?"
"Impossible! It's generally hard to cheat in this kind of game!"
"But how can an ordinary person win so many rounds in a row? It's too unbelievable!"
"I've watched people play high-low for decades, and I've never seen anyone win seven rounds in a row!"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"I must be dreaming!"
"Someone hit me, let me see if I'm dreaming."
…
The surrounding discussion grew louder and louder.
Tsunade's face also became increasingly ugly.
'This! What on earth is happening?'
'Am I not awake yet?'
'Losing seven rounds in a row, am I really going to lose to this brat?'
Tsunade's heart was filled with unwillingness.
She really didn't want to return to Konoha like this.
But she had already promised this brat...
As long as she wins one round...
Yes, just win one round, and she defeats him!
Takumi looked at the changing expressions on Tsunade's face and revealed a mysterious, inscrutable smile.
No matter what Tsunade did, she couldn't win.
The absolute luck of Incredible Luck was just that unreasonable!
Even if he guessed wrong, some unexpected situation would occur, like Tsunade sneezing violently, or the ground suddenly shaking and messing up the dice.
That was the most unstoppable Incredible Luck skill!
Under the horrified gaze of the crowd, the 8th round, the 9th round...
Everything proceeded normally.
In the end…
The onlookers were already numb.
He really didn't lose a single round!
Takumi won from the 1st round all the way to the 10th!
He didn't give Tsunade any chance!
By now, Tsunade seemed to have burned out completely, sitting on the ground in a daze.
Ten rounds.
She hadn't won a single one!
The entire gambling den had now (exploded with noise!
Everyone crowded around frantically, looking at Takumi as if looking upon a deity!
"Young man, you... you are simply too amazing!"
"I've gambled for over twenty years! I've never seen anything this fierce!"
"Little brother, are you taking disciples?!"
"I want to apprentice too!"
"Young man, take me as your disciple! I have a 150 kg daughter, about your age..."
"You old fool, get lost! With a daughter that looks like a pig, how dare you bring her out to embarrass yourself!"
"Young man, my wife..."
