I am the most popular character in Naruto!

Jiraiya, who had just entered from outside, heard Tsunade's shouting. He swayed as he accepted the drink offered by the shopkeeper with a smile and sat down next to Tsunade.

"Hmm... Jiraiya..."

Tsunade leaned against Jiraiya and snatched the sake bottle from his hand.

Are you convinced?

"The old man wants us to go to the front lines and guard them, but we don't even have time to do so!"

She clung to Jiraiya, murmuring to herself, her strong smell of alcohol making Jiraiya shake his head.

"Little Qianqiu, how much did she drink?"

Jiraiya helped the swaying Tsunade up, and Chiaki pointed to the dozen or so empty wine bottles on the table.

"Not many, this is the third wave."

"...That's not enough!"

Jiraiya held his forehead. Didn't he see that Tsunade was so drunk that she jumped into his arms? And she still said she didn't drink much?

It seems Tsunade is truly enraged this time, otherwise she wouldn't have drunk so shamelessly.

Indeed, the old man's act of giving everyone a heavy slap on the wrist seemed fair, but in reality, it only widened the gap between them and Danzo.

"Hehe...when I break through to Kage level...I'll come back and kill you all..."

Tsunade, drunk and talking nonsense, grabbed the bottle and started chugging the liquor.

"Okay, okay, stop drinking..."

Jiraiya snatched the sake from Tsunade, who waved her hands and scratched at him in dissatisfaction, yelling, "Give it back! Give it back!"

"Ugh, my temper!"

Jiraiya glared, shoved the sake bottle into his mouth, and hoisted Tsunade onto his shoulder.

"Little Qianqiu, I'll put her back first. You're in charge here!"

"Wait... we haven't paid yet..."

"Oh, if you can't do it, then buy on credit!"

Before Chiaki could stop Jiraiya from carrying Tsunade back, the table was empty, and even the bottles of sake he had just brought were gone.

"Eh--?!"

Chiaki sat stiffly in her seat. She was just a lowly Chunin who had always followed Tsunade around.

There's a big problem here: she didn't officially receive her headband from Konoha, meaning she wasn't actually a regular, registered ninja of Konoha.

In other words, she couldn't make money through the conventional methods of a ninja.

what?

Is there a reward for escorting Danzo this time?

The reward was also issued to Tsunade's book, so what does it have to do with Chiaki?

Chiaki's current identity is simply that of a member of the Senju clan, an ordinary citizen of Konoha, nothing more.

She didn't even have her own personal bankbook...

Having no money on him, and not even anything to pawn, this was the predicament Qianqiu was facing.

After hesitating for a long time in her seat, Qianqiu gritted her teeth, stamped her foot, and rushed to the boss to explain the situation.

"Boss... I'm sorry... we... we offer... credit..."

As a modern person with the right values, this is the first time Qianqiu has ever done something like buying on credit.

Her face was flushed with shame, not only for the act of buying on credit, but even for the mere thought of saying the word.

There's no way around it; pride and shame make it impossible for humans to directly express certain words in front of others.

For example, something like Eurogold...

cough!

Qianqiu, who had expected to be questioned by the boss, lowered her head and bowed apologetically to the boss, but the boss just smiled and waved his hand.

"Oh, don't worry about it, Your Highness."

"I'll just send the bill directly to the Senju old house. It's not like it's the first time."

"Ah... yes!"

Qianqiu was overjoyed and bowed repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, boss. Please take the bill to the Qianshou old house. The old butler will pay for it."

"I understand, I understand. The princess has gotten drunk here countless times."

The owner laughed heartily, "Thanks to her, my tavern's business has been so good all this time."

"Really...that's wonderful."

Qianqiu breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the boss again, but then suddenly heard two customers chatting.

"It's just too tragic."

"Yes, this war is going on so fiercely that even something like this has happened..."

"Konoha is still the best. My buddy in the Land of Rain told me that it's about to be bombed there, and he's too scared to go back."

"Isn't that right? So many people have died in the slums, all from poisoning!"

"I heard it's a water problem. Now the entire Rain Kingdom is in a state of panic and no one dares to drink water!"

The Land of Rain? Poisoning?

Chiaki's heart skipped a beat. Impossible! After they stopped Danzo, Danzo didn't do anything else.

How could the people of the Rain Country be poisoned?

Could it be that the people from the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning made the move?

wrong……

Chiaki felt that she had missed something and tried hard to recall what happened in the Land of Rain a month ago.

"What's wrong, sir?"

Seeing Qianqiu suddenly deep in thought, the boss couldn't help but ask curiously.

Qianqiu snapped out of her daze and quickly waved her hand, "Ah, no, no... I'll go back now!"

The boss followed Qianqiu's gaze and saw the group of drinkers discussing the Land of Rain. He suddenly realized and said, "Ah, I wonder who did this. I heard that the water from the wells in the slums of the Land of Rain is green. It's absolutely vicious!"

"But there's nothing we can do about it. It's just a pity for those who were tortured and killed..."

The boss shook his head and left, and Qianqiu suddenly realized what was going on.

Killing?

In the scroll image from that day, besides the parasitic insects, there were also Root ninjas holding green potions!

How could she forget that!

Chapter 104 I've never been so badly injured before

"Qian...you really won't come with me?"

At the gates of Konoha, Tsunade, her eyes brimming with tears, held Chiaki in her arms. She was dressed in military uniform, followed by Dan Kato and dozens of ninjas.

Among the group of ninjas was a girl with short black hair and bright eyes, who was staring intently at Tsunade.

The black-haired girl looked at Tsunade with boundless admiration, and at Chiaki with even more envy.

"Hmm... I need to go to the Land of Rain to check on things; I'm worried about it."

Qianqiu nodded seriously, saying with some regret, "It's a pity that my sister has to go to the Land of Wind to oversee the battle. If you could accompany me to the Land of Rain, the poison there would definitely be cured immediately..."

"There's no other way. Only I can deal with old hag Chiyo. I have no choice but to go to the Land of Wind..."

Tsunade patted Chiaki's head and said, "You should study the detoxification techniques I taught you carefully. I believe that with your talent, mastering detoxification techniques will not be difficult."

"In this ninja world, without exaggeration, the only one who can threaten my detoxification technique is old woman Chiyo. All other poisons are utterly useless!"

Tsunade's eyes were full of confidence, which made the black-haired girl even more excited.

Chiaki reluctantly broke free from Tsunade's embrace. Since Tsunade couldn't go to the Land of Rain, she and Jiraiya were the only ones left to travel together.

Fortunately, Orochimaru is still stationed in the Land of Rain. If Chiaki can't master the antidote technique, Orochimaru can help.

Tsunade's detoxification technique relies on her medical ninjutsu abilities, while Orochimaru's detoxification method involves directly using scientific research to analyze the elements of the poison and then dissolving them one by one.

To be fair, in terms of detoxification ability alone, Orochimaru is not much worse than Tsunade.

However, Tsunade solved the problem with brute force; no matter how the poison changed, she could break it with sheer power. Orochimaru, on the other hand, needed to spend a lot of time analyzing and adjusting the poison before he could neutralize it.

It's not that he doesn't know how, it's just that there's no need to waste time on it, and he's not someone who specializes in toxicology.

"Okay... then sister, please be careful on your journey, you have so many people to take care of..."

Chiaki looked worriedly at the large group of ninjas behind Tsunade. Apart from the familiar Kato Dan, the rest of the ninjas were people he had never seen before.

The older ones were in their thirties or forties, while the younger ones were only in their teens; they didn't seem very reliable.

"Don't worry, these ninjas are all excellent, and I will protect Tsunade."

Hearing Chiaki's worries, Kato Dan smiled and stepped forward, taking the black-haired girl standing beside him with him.

"For example, the youngest child, she is my niece, named Jingyin."

"Don't let her recent graduation from the Ninja Academy fool you; she has an amazing talent for medical ninjutsu."

"Shizune, come say hello to Tsunade. Isn't she your idol?"

As he spoke, Kato Dan nudged Shizune, and Tsunade and Chiaki both looked at her. Shizune's face immediately turned bright red.

"Tsuna...Tsuna...Te...Te-sama...Hello! I'm your fan!"

Wow.

It's muted.

Qianqiu looked at the black-haired girl with surprise. She was only ten years old and looked extremely cute, like a little loli. Qianqiu couldn't help but want to hug her and rub her.
