"..."
"As long as you stay on the battlefield for a month, your base salary will be paid out cumulatively without any tax deductions."
"Furthermore, 75% of the bounty for missions carried out on the battlefield can be paid out..."
Shirahoshi couldn't help but cover her mouth, her eyes turning into the shape of money.
My god! So I get a million Fire Country currency even without doing any missions on the battlefield?! And it's a guaranteed one million Fire Country currency?!
I spent six years doing D-level missions, working day and night, and only earned a little over four million! Now, you can earn at least a million just by spending a month on the battlefield?!
"No wonder everyone wants to go to the battlefield."
"For this kind of treatment, I have to say, it's really good!"
Bai Xing looked at her funeral allowance: three million taels.
"In the unfortunate event of death, the estate will be passed on to the immediate family members; if there are no immediate family members, it will be passed on to the collateral family members; if there are no collateral family members, it will be passed on to the designated heir; if there is no designated heir..." Bai Xing suddenly saw the darkness of the village, "Confiscated?!"
"The village is paying for the burial of one's own body as a form of donation?!"
"6."
Shirahoshi finally understood; this was clearly a high-level insurance policy. No wonder so many people wanted to become Jonin; with this insurance alone, the child would never starve.
"But what's going on with Minato? Wait a minute! I knew it! Where did this huge windfall come from?!"
Bai Xing discovered a line of smaller print inside the appointment scroll, which read: 'If the mission fails, causing significant losses and harm to the village and companions, the village has the right to withhold all wages and benefits, and even the substantial funeral and bereavement compensation.'
"Ugh. This is my first time being in command. What am I supposed to do? I can't calm down at all! Oh well, I guess I'll go ask Orochimaru-sensei."
Shirahoshi had wanted to catch up on some sleep, but now she couldn't sleep at all; her eyes were wide awake. After brushing her teeth and washing her face in the bathroom, she went straight to Orochimaru's house, only to find it empty. So she went to the Senju clan's territory, only to find that Tsunade wasn't there either, only Nawaki was there.
"Shirahoshi, why are you here to see my sister so early in the morning instead of sleeping?" Rope Tree rubbed his eyes, suddenly thought of something, and a mischievous smile appeared on his face. He stepped forward and nudged Shirahoshi's lower abdomen with his elbow: "You're not trying to woo my sister, are you? I can help you~ I quite like you."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xing's emotions, which had ranged from despair, suicidal thoughts, and regret, gradually subsided into calm and silence. He turned his gaze to his stinky younger brother, who had tried to trick him into finding a gambling addict:
"Stop dreaming."
"With your sister's extravagant spending habits, I can't afford to support her."
Rope Tree: "......"
The brown-haired boy saw Tsunade walking behind Shirahoshi. Judging from the slight blush on the woman's face and the fact that she was covering her forehead, she had been drinking all night at an izakaya with Jiraiya and Orochimaru. It was partly to celebrate her disciple's advancement, partly to mourn her fallen comrades on the front lines, and partly a final frenzy before heading to the battlefield.
At this moment, the woman's figure was accentuated by the alcohol-soaked clothes, revealing her fair, delicate arms and calves.
His face, after hearing Bai Xing's words, changed from the pleasure numbed by alcohol to slightly bulging veins, and his forehead was covered with the character '井' (well).
"Who, who wants you to marry me?!"
The sound of breaking through defenses came from behind Bai Xing. The young man immediately changed his tune with a serious expression and said hurriedly, "The main thing is that I'm afraid I don't have the money. Your sister gambles herself away, and I won't have the money to redeem her then."
"When I make a lot of money, I'll definitely marry your sister."
He immediately turned around, pretending that he had only just noticed Tsunade's appearance. At this moment, Tsunade revealed a mocking expression, as if to say, "What's the use of you changing your mind now! I heard everything."
"Oh, it's Lady Tsunade who's back!"
Shirahoshi bowed slightly, looking down to admire Tsunade's figure while keeping his eyes out of Tsunade's sight.
"I was rude just now."
"It's all my fault for seeing the appointment letter from the Hokage-sama, which made me a little uneasy."
"Please don't mind, Lady Tsunade!"
After saying that, Shirahoshi cautiously raised her head slightly and glanced at Tsunade.
At this moment, Tsunade was seen with her arms wrapped around the enormous pair of breasts, which were now too large to be grasped with one hand. Her clothes clung tightly to them, and Shirahoshi was somewhat mesmerized by what she saw.
—Should I go to a shady tavern, lose my virginity, and then go to the battlefield to die?!
"Does it look good?"
"So...beautiful. Lady Tsunade's appearance is one of the best in Konoha. I was so captivated without even realizing it. I'm truly sorry."
"Hmph." Tsunade curled her lip, knowing that this guy's words were not sincere.
Tsunade approached Shirahoshi, the smell of alcohol wafting towards her, and the two began to stare at each other.
"Look into my eyes and tell me if I'm pretty."
Bai Xing quickly calmed down and immediately revealed her usual poker face: "Beautiful."
"Lady Tsunade, you're drunk. You should go back and rest."
"Drunk? I'm not drunk at all." Tsunade finished speaking, then clicked her tongue twice as she looked at Shirahoshi's face, thinking to herself that this kid was indeed more handsome than that guy from last night. The woman's face flushed slightly, and her heart began to beat a little faster. "You said you would marry me, right?"
"Uh." Shirahoshi gave a deadpan look, thinking to himself, "At most, I'm attracted to your body, but marriage is out of the question. Besides, Tsunade is clearly flirting with me right now. 'I just misspoke, please forgive me, Lady Tsunade...'"
Her jade-like fingers, adorned with orange-colored nail polish, gently touched Bai Xing's lips.
Then, Tsunade moved forward a little more.
The girl's face appeared slightly magnified in Shirahoshi's view.
From this distance, Shirahoshi could savor the faint scent of sake emanating from Tsunade, and by looking down, she could directly observe the beautiful items that men favored:
"He said he'd marry me, so giving my future wife some money to spend first shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"..." After listening, Bai Xing was tempted by her beauty for a second, then remained silent for a moment, "I have no money."
"??????" Tsunade had never seen a man with such high resistance. "What do you want in return for the money?!"
Seeing Tsunade acting like a child, Shirahoshi thought she was probably drunk, but still had some of her original consciousness left. "I turned eighteen last year, and I still haven't been to an izakaya."
"I'm planning a big splurge tonight, so..."
Instantly, Tsunade revealed a look of disgust and disdain, put some distance between herself and Shirahoshi, and crossed her arms: "So you and Jiraiya are the same kind of people."
"..." This time, Shirahoshi really couldn't tell whether Tsunade was faking being drunk or was genuinely drunk:
"I've never been there before, so can't I try out the 'Ninja Three Forbidden Services'?"
At this point, Shirahoshi glanced at Tsunade in front of her and pinched her nose:
"Moreover."
"Lady Tsunade seems to have drunk quite a bit too. And she gambles all the time, yet she has the nerve to criticize me."
“I’m different! I just drink! Gambling is just for relaxation and entertainment! You are, you are…” Tsunade blushed, shook her head, and hurriedly waved her hand, saying, “Never mind. I won’t borrow money from you anymore. You really are the ultimate stingy person that Nonou said you are.”
Being stingy is better than being broke.
If you do the math, your savings have only just recovered to around 500,000 taels, and you feel completely insecure.
— He used the Transformation Technique and spent 200,000 taels to order a ninja sword that was different from his own, specifically for his disguise. It might come in handy on the battlefield in a few days.
"correct."
"Tsunade-sama..."
When Shirahoshi saw Tsunade enter, intending to inquire about battlefield command, Tsunade showed an impatient expression and turned her head away.
"Alright, just call me Tsunade."
"You've helped my brother quite a few times, after all. I won't hold your honorific title against you."
"Yes, Miss Tsunade."
"?"
"Can you say that again?"
"...Tsunade-nee?"
"That's fine. Come in and we'll talk when you need to."
Tsunade had just unleashed a burst of chakra, which made Nawaki, standing by the door, tremble with fear.
Tsunade glanced at her younger brother: "Nawaki, aren't you going to let them in and have a seat? You're ruining the Senju clan's etiquette like this!"
"You're fined 100,000 taels of silver!"
"..." Rope Tree was silent for a moment, thinking to himself that he had almost lost all his money and now only had a little over 80,000 yen in savings left. "I don't have that many sisters. Besides, I need to use it myself."
Tsunade complained, "If you need money anywhere, we have everything at home. Every day, your older sister buys groceries and cooks delicious meals for you, and when it's hot, she even buys you ice cream. She also used to bring you souvenirs every time we went on a mission."
"As a result, when my sister asked you to lend her some money, you wouldn't lend her a single penny—waaaaaah!!"
I hate my younger brother the most!!!
Rope Tree: "......"
Then, Bai Xing witnessed a dramatic change in a woman's demeanor: the defeated Rope Tree knelt on the ground, swindled out of 80,000 taels by a cunning and wicked woman. At this moment, the wicked woman counted the money and said triumphantly that she could finally break even today.
"Speak of it."
"Your luck is so bad, why don't you let me, someone who is old enough to enter the casino, bet against you? That way I can make a fortune."
Inside the room, Shirahoshi sipped the tea personally brewed by Tsunade, one of the three legendary Sannin, and spoke as he did so.
The tea was just so-so.
At this moment, Tsunade stared wide-eyed at Shirahoshi, as if she had discovered some trade secret:
"Oh right! How come I didn't know that!"
"Then lend me your clothes for a day! I'll do anything as long as I can win money!!"
Bai Xing glanced at the fickle and wicked woman beside her and thought to herself, "Women are really good at acting."
But then he heard Tsunade's seductive words.
next second.
Bai Xing couldn't help but chuckle mischievously and said:
"Anything is okay?"
"Mmm! Anything is fine~~" Tsunade blinked her beautiful, bright eyes. As she knelt on the ground, she gently placed her hands in front of her chest, a sly glint in her eyes: Sure enough, my charm is quite something~ Once you're obsessed with my body, I'll swindle all your money, and then you'll be begging me for your money back on your knees!
