I'm doing Jujutsu Kaisen in the ninja world.

She did take sides at the time, but she doesn't regret it.

Even if she could do it a hundred times, a thousand times, or ten thousand times over, her choice would still be to unconditionally help Jiraiya.

So Shinji wasn't wrong to say they weren't on the same path.

Tsunade never considered herself a member of the Jashin Cult; at most, she used that identity to turn down the position of Hokage.

"Consider it an obligation of mine. As long as it doesn't violate my principles or morals, you can make one request, as long as it's within my power."

If it were just to take Shion away, it wouldn't be worth Tsunade doing all that.

However, the situation in the ninja world is becoming increasingly unstable, and she doesn't want to push Shinji and the others to the opposite side of Konoha, so she chose to take this opportunity to give them some compensation.

This favor is truly priceless, far surpassing the IOU written by Tamamo Hotaru.

Even Shinji was somewhat surprised.

"One time isn't enough, at least five times."

Seeing that he was pushing his luck, Tsunade immediately yelled, "Two times at most, take it or leave it! I'm taking him away!"

"Fine, you owe me two. You said it, so don't regret it."

Tsunade finished the wine in the bottle and got up to leave.

"Let's go, Shizune, Sakura."

"Huh? You're leaving already?"

Sakura looked unwilling and lingered beside Sasuke, refusing to move.

Sasuke, on the other hand, maintained his usual sullen poker face, completely ignoring Sakura's presence and even finding her somewhat annoying.

Women are the most troublesome thing!

"If you don't want to leave, then you can stay."

Tsunade didn't care whether Sakura came with her or not. If Jiraiya hadn't asked her, she wouldn't have taken on a burden as a disciple.

When the news of her wanting to take on disciples spread, all the talented young men and women in Konoha were at her disposal.

"Shizune-senpai, wait for me, I'm coming."

Although she really wanted to stay with Sasuke a little longer, Sakura, after regaining her senses, gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, and chased after him.

"I haven't even spoken to Sasuke-kun yet, honestly!"

Sakura wailed inwardly.

At this moment, Shinji also took out the IOU written by Tamamo Hotaru and crushed it into powder with his hand.

"Although we're even now, I still have to remind you that if Tsunade hadn't offered me a deal I couldn't refuse, I would have made you regret ever being born if I hadn't kept my word after three days."

"What you think is cleverness is actually harming yourself and others."

"You can leave now."

Shinji started rudely kicking people out.

Ziyuan doesn't interact with people much on a daily basis, which results in her having relatively low emotional intelligence.

In fact, she had already regretted it.

If Tsunade can't resolve this matter, she will do everything in her power to extricate Tamamo Hotaru from it.

So you can only say she was lucky.

"Anyway, thank you everyone."

After thanking everyone, Shion whispered a few words to Tamamo Hotaru before hurrying off to catch up.

As Tamamo Hotaru was feeling melancholy, Shinji said to her, "If there's a next time..."

"Sell me to Kumogakure. Yes, I understand. I won't make decisions on my own again next time."

Even Tamamo Hotaru has learned to answer questions quickly.

She was secretly delighted to have escaped another disaster.

Then she received a hard thud on the head!

"what!"

When Tamamo Hotaru looked up with teary eyes, Shinji and the others all acted as if nothing had happened, clearly none of them would admit to doing it.

A bunch of bastards!

Tamamo Hotaru gritted her teeth and cursed inwardly.

But when they were about to leave, the shop owner stopped them.

The reason is that the outstanding room fees have not been paid.

Shinji immediately understood what was going on.

Damn it, Tsunade! No wonder she ran so fast!

They're treating him like a sucker again.

Shinji paid the money expressionlessly, then left with his entourage.

Tamamo Hotaru and the others, including Hidan, kept their distance from him, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire.

At this moment, Shinji was exuding a terrifying aura that kept strangers at bay!

. . . . . . .

Meanwhile, Tsunade, who had tricked Shinji again, quickly led her people to hide far away.

"Lady Tsunade, isn't this a bit inappropriate..."

"I'm a little conflicted," said Shizune.

Tsunade, however, was unimpressed. "Relax, a little money can buy me two favors, isn't that a good deal? It's a steal! He got off easy!"

Thinking about it that way, it does seem to make some sense.

In any case, Tsunade always manages to come up with some fallacious reasoning to explain her inappropriate behavior.

Having long been accustomed to silence, I simply stopped saying anything more.

Only Shion, who caught up last, suddenly felt as if she had encountered another group of unreliable people.

It's like just hearing rumors; who would imagine that Tsunade is actually a gambling addict and alcoholic deadbeat?

You can't judge a book by its cover!

After a while, Shion suddenly hesitated and said, "This doesn't seem to be the way to Konoha, does it?"

"Of course not, this is towards the inner city."

"Huh? Where are we going?"

"Let's get some travel money first, otherwise what will we eat and drink on the way?"

Tsunade's matter-of-fact words left Shion speechless.

Something just feels off.

Shouldn't ninjas always be exposed to the elements and prioritize their missions?

Judging from Tsunade's words, they weren't planning to follow the shortest route between two points, but rather to deliberately go where there were people.

Otherwise, why would there be any need to specifically raise travel expenses?

"Wait, if you have a way to get the money, why did you say that before?"

Ziyuan suddenly realized what was going on.

Tsunade looked at her strangely, "We didn't know each other before, and you just came up to borrow money. Who would lend you money?"

Excellent, very powerful, this reason is simply impeccable.

"But..."

Shion tried to struggle a little more, but Tsunade immediately interrupted her.

"Are you wondering why I'd rather owe them two favors than go and get the money first?"

"That's because my favors are worthless!"

"After this, the next time we meet might be decades later. What's the use of owing a hundred favors? Unless you can always find me by such coincidence every time."

Good heavens, so that's what they were planning!

Ziyuan was completely dumbfounded.

She felt that the outside world was too complicated and wanted to go home.

[470. Chapter 458 Losing Face]

This encounter was just a coincidence, just like the last one.

Tsunade doesn't believe there will be another one in the near future.

Even if she were really that unlucky, she wouldn't worry about anything.

Firstly, the other party may not necessarily have this need, thus making her repay a favor.

Secondly, if we can't avoid it, we can just give up.

If you can help, then help. If you really can't, are you going to kill her?

In short, giving money is out of the question, but everything else is negotiable.

Sakura witnessed her new teacher's shamelessness once again, leaving her speechless.

The great and righteous role model in my heart has been shattered.

As for Ziyuan, there's no need to mention her; she feels sorry for herself.

"We're almost at Daming Prefecture. Are we going to rob it? No, teacher! It's very rich here, but what we're doing... is unwise."

Looking at the grand mansion ahead, Sakura quickly advised, "You can't take this crooked path!"

Tsunade irritably shook off Sakura's hand. "What are you thinking! Do you think your teacher is a robber who would rob ordinary people when he's broke?"
