Chapter 207: So Unreasonable! She's Planning to Go Back on Her Word!
Shizune had only lifted the dice cup halfway when Tsunade's expression already changed.
Her pupils contracted sharply.
Because from her angle, she could already see the numbers on the dice.
Four-four-five—thirteen points—big.
She had lost.
In that instant, all the hope on Tsunade's face turned into disappointment. She looked like a deflated balloon, her head drooping in deep frustration.
"Damn it…"
"How did this happen?!"
"I clearly calculated that this place would greatly boost my luck!"
Tsunade grabbed her own hair in frustration, shaking her head in annoyance and regret.
Meanwhile, Oborotsuki opposite her slowly curved his lips into a meaningful smile.
Of course, he would never tell Tsunade the truth.
When he had squatted down earlier to pick up the dice from the ground, he had already marked them through contact.
Moreover, he had completely grasped the weight and properties of the dice.
Under these conditions, if he still couldn't win the bet, he might as well go back to Kirigakure and raise pigs.
"You lost."
Oborotsuki smiled.
"Damn it!"
Tsunade looked up at him angrily:
"Fine! Tell me—what do you want me to do?"
"As long as it's not too excessive, I'll agree to everything!"
"Tsk tsk tsk…"
"That's not what we agreed on earlier."
"What we said—no, what you personally said—was that no matter what request is made, neither side can refuse."
Oborotsuki raised one finger and wagged it from side to side while shaking his head, smiling meaningfully.
Hearing those words, Shizune's heart tightened, and her expression turned extremely worried.
"Lady Tsunade…"
She looked utterly dejected.
Even the little pig Ton-Ton in her arms let out a depressed sigh.
Tsunade stood up directly, took a deep breath, and looked down at Oborotsuki for a long moment.
Then she turned and walked away into the distance.
"Lady Tsunade!"
Seeing Tsunade leave without a word, Shizune hurriedly stood up and tried to chase after her.
"You stay here. It would be a shame to leave all this money behind."
"I'll go talk to her."
With that, Oborotsuki immediately followed.
…
Oborotsuki walked side by side with Tsunade. The two of them left the town and wandered aimlessly along the road.
"Tell me—what is your request?"
Tsunade finally spoke calmly.
"I haven't decided yet."
Oborotsuki replied with a cheerful grin.
"Then come find me when you've decided."
Tsunade suddenly stopped, spun around sharply, and started walking back the way they came.
"Where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going to another place to keep playing! I refuse to believe my luck is that bad!"
"I'm definitely going to win it all back!"
"…"
Hearing Tsunade say this, Oborotsuki was utterly speechless.
He shook his head:
"Then you'd better not go. I can tell you my first request right now."
"Hm?"
Sure enough, hearing his words, Tsunade immediately stopped and turned back to look at him:
"What is it?"
"Come back to Kirigakure with me."
"You…"
Tsunade's face was full of shock. She stared at Oborotsuki in disbelief:
"You… you were also sent by Kirigakure?"
At that moment, she remembered the Kirigakure ANBU she had knocked out earlier.
She had assumed all along that this kid was only following her and even gambling with her because he lusted after her beauty and body.
Tsunade had even prepared herself to let the kid take a little advantage, then quickly send him away.
But now, hearing Oborotsuki say this, it meant this kid really was a pursuer sent by Kirigakure.
In reality, it wasn't what she had thought—he wasn't after her body.
Did that mean she had been overthinking it and misunderstood?
For a moment, Tsunade felt a little embarrassed.
At the same time, she felt somewhat humiliated.
"This kid… he really has no interest in me at all?"
At this moment, Tsunade even felt a tiny bit disappointed. She began to wonder if her charm had started to decline with age.
Oborotsuki had no idea that so many thoughts had flashed through Tsunade's mind in such a short time.
Seeing that she remained silent, he explained further:
"Kirigakure needs your help with some matters. If you come back with me now and help those people solve their problems, that will count as fulfilling my first request."
"As for the other two, I'll tell you once I've thought them through."
Hearing this made Tsunade feel even worse inside.
Sure enough…
He really has no interest in me at all!!
Tsunade shot Oborotsuki an annoyed glare and waved her hand dismissively:
"I'm not going!"
"Are you going back on your word?"
"No, I just have no interest in going to Kirigakure. Change your request!"
Tsunade spoke with righteous confidence. She waved her hand again, ignoring Oborotsuki's reaction, and turned to leave.
But the next second, Oborotsuki had already blocked her path.
"This is my first request."
"No conditions. Don't forget what you said yourself."
"Get out of the way."
Tsunade looked completely unreasonable.
From childhood to now, very few people had ever dared to force her like this.
Even Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and the others wouldn't dare offend her this way.
Even her grandfather, Hashirama Senju, had doted on her and never gone against her wishes.
Let alone this brat in front of her.
Who did he think he was?
"So you really are planning to go back on your word…"
Oborotsuki shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Say whatever you want. I'm not agreeing to this request."
"Change it, or I'll count it as you using up one of your chances!"
Tsunade remained overbearing and unreasonable. At the same time, her fist was already gathering a massive amount of chakra.
It seemed that if Oborotsuki continued to pester her, she would use her monstrous strength to beat him up.
Oborotsuki let out a deep sigh.
"So you're planning to use force and be completely unreasonable…"
"You'd better not regret it."
Oborotsuki looked at Tsunade with a playful, meaningful gaze and warned her with a half-smile.
"Regret what?"
"You're the one who should regret it!"
"Kid, you already ruined my fun and I haven't settled the score with you yet! Since you're talking like this, I won't be polite with you!!"
With that, Tsunade suddenly attacked, gritting her teeth as she launched an assault on Oborotsuki.
"You really are a domineering woman!"
Oborotsuki shook his head with a helpless, amused smile and casually dodged her attack with a flash.
BOOM—
The ground was crushed under Tsunade's foot.
Countless cracks spread in all directions from the point where her heel landed.
The terrifying monstrous strength didn't dissipate completely. It continued spreading toward Oborotsuki's position.
But at that moment, Oborotsuki's figure flashed again and disappeared once more.
When he reappeared, he had already arrived behind Tsunade without a sound.
