NOVEL NEXT Naruto no Wood escapes and conquers the world
Chapter 12: Action at the Roots
Konoha, the root stronghold.
In the dark and humid room, only the pale light bulbs flickered on and off. The weak light could not illuminate the deep darkness at all. In the darkest place, the rustling sound of pen scratching paper could be heard endlessly.
The thick paper flipped slightly, the shaking pen tip suddenly stopped, and the rustling sound stopped at the same time.
"Come out."
In the shadow of the door, a root ninja kneeling on one knee and wearing a red demon mask appeared.
"Lord Danzo, the mission to the Fire Country's Daimyo capital has failed."
"waste!"
Danzo was furious when he heard this, and he took out the pen in his hand, and instantly opened a bloody hole in the shoulder of the root ninja. The blood flowed like a stream, but the root ninja didn't even let out a cry of pain, and he didn't even shake his body.
After venting the anger in his heart, Danzo looked at his right arm, which was still stinging to this day. His gloomy expression became even more ruthless and he said in a deep voice:
"What are the specific circumstances of the mission? Did the daimyo and the guardian twelve ninjas intervene, or were ninjas from other countries involved?"
The root ninja lowered his head, paying no attention to the bleeding shoulder, and replied:
"The leader of the Senju clan will use powerful water escape ninjutsu. Considering the subsequent impact in the Daimyo capital, we can only prioritize restricting the actions of the leader of the Senju clan. Then the ninth son of the Senju clan, Senju Naoki, learned from the family secret Tao escaped, and the secret passage was destroyed in the ensuing battle.”
Danzo held his cane and walked from the darkest corner to the light.
"Water Release Ninjutsu... Teacher, you have a lot of backup skills, but it's a pity that if you had chosen me instead of Sarutobi, how could everything happen now!"
Danzo's gloomy eyes were full of resentment, and the ninja's head lowered.
After glancing at the root ninja whose head was almost hanging to the ground, Danzo asked dissatisfied:
"Where are the bodies of the Senju clan and the child who escaped?"
"There are 74 members of the Senju clan, and the bodies of 73 of them have been sent to the Root Research Base, Senju Naoki..."
"Say."
"Yes, Senju Naoki is currently following the Sannin Tsunade, and Leopard, Terai, and Nobu are monitoring in the dark."
"Trash, what a bunch of trash!"
Danzo was really angry this time. Even if he allowed a child to escape from the root attack, he actually involved Tsunade, one of the Sannin, what was the use of such a root?! ! !
But the pain in his right arm reminded Danzo all the time that this powerful power could not be fully controlled by him, and for the time being he still needed the strength of his roots.
Taking a long breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart. The gloomy face hid in the depths of darkness again, and a cold voice came out:
"Take all the roots that are still in Konoha and make sure to completely wipe out the Senju clan. In addition, if there is a chance... the Sannin Tsunade does not need to come back."
"Yes."
The figure of the root ninja slowly dissipated, and Danzo's deep roar also echoed in the underground stronghold:
"Damn Orochimaru, the backlash of Hashirama's cells must have been intentional, damn it!!!"
……
Tamano Kuni, Yamanashi Prefecture, Tanshu Street.
In the largest casino in Tanshu Street, Tsunade, Naoki and Shizune became the focus of the audience, just because these three guests were so generous!
In the private room on the third floor, the casino owner who was smiling from ear to ear swore that in the more than ten years since he took over the casino, he had never been as happy as he is today.
Today alone, the casino's profit may be more than [-] million taels!
You must know that Asuma Sarutobi, the son of the Third Hokage, an elite Jonin of Konoha, and one of the twelve guardian ninjas of the Land of Fire, has a bounty of only 3500 million taels on the black market. You can imagine what a huge sum this is. wealth.
At the gaming table in the center of the casino hall, other gamblers consciously gave up their seats to three big fat sheep who came from nowhere.
"Naoki, do you want to continue gambling..."
Even Tsunade, who is addicted to gambling, now wants to go back to eat yakiniku, drink sake, and soak in hot springs.
That's 1000 million taels, lost in just a few hours?She did lose a lot of money gambling, but this was Tsunade's first experience with this kind of gambling.
After comforting Shizune for a while, Naoki saw for the first time Tsunade who wanted to leave the casino voluntarily. She usually lost all her money and owed the casino a lot of money before leaving with unfulfilled feelings, okay?
"Sister Tsunade, don't you want to gamble anymore?" Senju Naoki looked at Tsunade jokingly.
"forget about it."
Tsunade looked at the pile of chips that were piled up like a hill with distress. She had lost 300 million taels in just one game. Normally, this would be enough for her to gamble comfortably for a month.
Naoki looked at Tsunade's expression and understood that Tsunade actually didn't care about winning or losing, or that she didn't care about money. Otherwise, Tsunade would only need to use chakra to cheat, and then she would always be invincible. She just Enjoying the excitement between winning and losing is, in layman's terms, a gambling addiction.
Most gamblers enter casinos with the idea of making money, and casinos mainly harvest these people. Pure gamblers like Tsunade will generally not lose, and may even win a part, but Tsunade His luck... is really incredibly bad.
Even if there is no money in the casino, Tsunade can't win a game. Unless something bad happens recently, Tsunade is a fat sheep who gives away money.
Senju Naoki pushed all the remaining chips in front of Tsunade to eighteen, and exclamations suddenly sounded all around. This table is playing dice. There are three dice in total. Different points have different odds. , of which eighteen points is the highest nine times odds.
Moreover, Senju Naoki pushed all-in on eighteen points and did not bet on other points. According to the rules, if Senju Naoki hits the bet, the casino will pay eighteen times the odds.
On the contrary, if the bet is not successful, Naoki Senju will pay nine times the amount of chips to the casino.
Senju Naoki's chips were a full 100 million taels.
As more and more people in the casino paid attention to this place, the exclamations continued to increase, and the male dealer was sweating. Because it was the big fat sheep Tsunade who had been gambling, so he was careless just now. Doing tricks.
In other words, the number in the dice cup is indeed eighteen...
Once it is revealed, not only will the casino not make a penny, it will even lose 900 million taels, and his life will also be difficult to save.
"Open! Open!"
"Open! Open!"
The surrounding gamblers who had been losing money all year round seemed to realize that the casino was going to be in trouble this time, and they all seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for revenge.
"Haha, our casino is temporarily closed today, please give me some face."
As the chubby casino boss appeared, ronin samurai wearing samurai swords filed out and began to forcibly drive away the gamblers in the casino. Behind the boss, an unusual aura appeared.
Tsunade finally realized something and turned to look at Naoki, but her eyes met Naoki's. Naoki nodded slightly, and Tsunade tacitly stopped looking up, so as not to scare this unknown ninja. .
