Chapter 16 - I'm invincible, okay?

The charming atmosphere only lasted for a short time.

  Yes, it's very short.

  And it ended with Tsunade stepping on his foot, and Chishima Chiba was injured again.

  But Tsunade is so unruly and difficult to tame, and Chishima Chiba is mentally prepared.

  The two men came ashore, feeling wet and uncomfortable, but they did not catch a cold.

  Since both of them have the same physique, physical illness will hardly occur as long as it does not damage the foundation of the body.

  The afternoon teaching continued, and Tsunade and Chishima Chiba had forgotten about the scenes of the two of them in the stream.

  Falling in love does not affect improving one's own combat effectiveness, Chishima and Chiba have made this very clear, and as for Tsunade... it should be similar, right?

  He was only distracted occasionally during the lecture, but it betrayed Tsunade's calm and composed expression.

  She was upset.

  Time is like a thief. It takes away some things from you without you noticing, and also leaves some things behind.

  After a whole day of teaching, the knowledge stored in Chishima Chiba's mind increased a lot, and Tsunade also felt that she was about to be completely drained by Chishima Chiba.

  He learns so quickly and has great talent, just like myself back then.

  The pressure suddenly came to Tsunade.

  On the way back, Tsunade was silent and seemed unhappy, but Chishima Chiba seemed to have the ability to read Tsunade's mind and accurately told what was in Tsunade's mind.

  "Do you think I'm learning too fast and draining the little knowledge you have?"

  Tsunade was a little flustered when her thoughts were spoken, and she could only refute with a strong tone, "No!"

  Turning his head to glance at Tsunade's arrogant look, Chidao Chiba retracted his gaze, "I know, but it would be better if you could put the effort you put into studying various ninjutsu books instead of studying gambling techniques."

  "You tell me?" Tsunade glared at Chishima Chiba, then muttered softly, "But studying gambling techniques is interesting..."

  "Of course it's interesting. You're bound to lose every time you gamble, so warming others is also warming yourself."

  "Shut up!" Tsunade was unconvinced, "I've defeated you several times!"

  "It's at most two times." Chishima Chiba stretched out two fingers and waved them in front of Tsunade.

  "Humph, I can beat you a third time, a fourth time, countless times!"

  Tsunade was so competitive that she stopped immediately and said, "Come on, let's make a bet!"

  "Do you have money?" Chishima Chiba curled her lips.

  "…"

  "I have some here." Chishima Chiba took out a wad of crumpled bills from his pocket and said, "I'll lend it to you first, but you have to pay interest."

  "Okay, wait for me to use the gambling technique on you!"

  Three minutes later.

  Tsunade looked at the only banknote left and felt so heartbroken that she immediately turned grim and slapped the last banknote in front of Chishima Chiba.

  Another three minutes later.

  Tsunade, who was burdened with a second round of debt, had a wooden face and numbly placed the last banknote in front of Chishima Chiba.

  The last three minutes were also the darkest three minutes in Tsunade's life. She incurred a third round of debt and lost it all.

  "Are you coming again?" asked Chishima Chiba.

  "Come again!" Tsunade revived with full blood and was full of fighting spirit again.

  "Pay back the money first. The principal and interest must be... um, 20,000 taels."

  (ΩДΩ)

  "How much?" Tsunade was surprised.

  "20,000 taels." Qiandao Qianye reiterated in a very tough tone, "Don't even think about gambling with me again if you don't pay me back!"

  "I..." Tsunade was speechless. She approached Chishima Chiba with an embarrassed look on her face. She actually took his arm and shook it for the first time. "This is the last time, okay?"

  Women who act coquettishly have the best life.

  Even though she acts like a spoiled brat all the time, Chishima Chiba really can't stand it when Tsunade does that occasionally.

  "The last time?"

  "Yeah, yeah, for the last time!"

  Three minutes later, Tsunade was still persisting. She played more conservatively, betting small amounts each time and learned to be thrifty.

  Alas...it's hard for this child.  

  However, thanks to Tsunade's luck in gambling, even if she bet very little, she still lost every time. She only lasted 5 minutes before she was defeated by Chishima Chiba again.

  My eyes rolled back...

  "Still betting?"

  "Bet!" Tsunade's voice was filled with tears.

  o(╥﹏╥)

  oLooking at Tsunade's expression, Chishima Chiba hardened his heart again. Today, he must help Tsunade quit gambling!

  Even if it can only last for a while, it's good.

  It was completely dark.

  The two figures squatting in the corner naturally would not stay there.

  Tsunade was in front, her shoulders shaking, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

  Chishima and Chiba were behind, counting money rustling, over and over again.

  "Have you counted enough?"

  Tsunade turned her head with red eyes, but the first thing that caught her eye was a stack of neatly arranged, but overall wrinkled, bills.

  "What are you doing?"

  Chishima Chiba shook his hand and said, "This is pocket money for you, but you can't use it for gambling."

  "I...I...I don't want to bet with you anymore!" Tsunade's voice was still intermittent, and her sobbing appearance was heartbreaking.

  Chishima Chiba raised his hand and rubbed Tsunade's head, and patted her gently at the end, "Be restrained, or you will cry again in the future."

  Tsunade felt a little aggrieved, but for the sake of the money, she nodded obediently and agreed.

  At this time, Chishima and Chiba also revealed their true colors.

  "Tsunade, for the next month, you and I will study the ninjutsu manual together. If you can persevere, your debt to me will be written off. How about that?"

  "Really?!" Tsunade raised her little head and didn't bother to count the money, "Keep your word!"

  "Hook."

  "Hook."

  The agreement ceremony between the two of them was completed. Tsunade forgot that she was crying sadly before and was now happily counting the money with her head down.

  At the same time, she was humming in her heart. Chishima Chiba's money finally fell into her hands. She was so happy that she won again!

  There was no conversation along the way, and Chishima Chiba didn't ask any questions. They followed Tsunade into the house very consciously.

  After entering the door, he felt uneasy again, but Chishima Chiba performed much better than yesterday.

  His room is right next to Tsunade's, and he doesn't live in the same room with Tsunade. He didn't say anything, so why are you glaring at him?

  Besides, you never know, we might be a family in the future. It would be so awkward if I glared at you now.

  "Little Chiba, come here quickly and let grandma take a look."

  Uzumaki Mito was very fond of Chishima Chiba, and they seemed to be close to each other for generations. "Why did you come back so late today?"

  "I went to the river with Tsunade to practice treading water, but..."

  Chishima Chiba told Uzumaki Mito what happened today in detail, and Tsunade also chattered along on the side, the two of them working together seamlessly.

  "You guys are hardworking, but skipping classes all the time is not okay."

  After the two finished speaking, Uzumaki Mito tapped their foreheads and said, "Takezawa Masahiro has complained to your second grandfather, so he will come tonight to deal with you two."

  "ah?!"

  Chishima and Chiba gave up immediately, but Senju Tobirama is not easy to deal with. He is simply the epitome of difficult to deal with.

  "But don't panic, I'll block it for you two, and your second grandfather won't blame you."

  "Grandma, you're so nice!" Tsunade smiled and threw herself into Uzumaki Mito's arms, rubbing her little head against hers all the time.

  Chishima Chiba also bowed obediently to express his gratitude, and Uzumaki Mito smiled even more happily.

  "Besides, I've told your second grandfather that I will be responsible for your schoolwork from now on. You only need to show up at the Ninja School during exams."

  Is there such a good thing?!

  Chishima Chiba looked at Tsunade, then at Uzumaki Mito, and felt that he was really invincible during his novice period!
