However, Kiyoshi possessed strength, talent, and appearance. He also maintained a humble deanor.
'Kiyoshi is a bit like uncle.' Shizune thought to herself.
When her uncle, Kato Dan, was still alive, he was also gentle and exceptionally talented. Unfortunately, he died young on the battlefield.
She couldn't even learn his famous ninjutsu, the 'Spirit Transformation Technique'.
After her uncle died, that ninjutsu was buried in Konoha, and no one could learn it.
Just like the space-ti ninjutsu Flying Thunder God Technique left behind by the Second Hokage, if Minato hadn't learned it as a successor, probably no one else in the entire Konoha would have been able to learn it.
Oink... Oink... Oink...
A pink piglet wearing a red top and a pearl necklace made a sound.
"It's not what you think, Tonton,"
Shizune quickly picked up the piglet from the ground, telling her that she wasn't thinking that way.
"Oink?"
Tonton tilted her head, and the silver-white pearl necklace rolled along with it.
Seeing her obviously disbelieving expression, Shizune felt a burst of annoyance and quickened her pace.
"When Tsunade-sama's creditors co to collect debts again one day, I'll mortgage you off."
Shizune put on a fierce expression on her small face.
"Oink…"
Tonton's voice suddenly beca much smaller, as if saying not to do that.
…
Kiyoshi walked along the street for a while, and soon found a small alley.
Outside the alley, several flags were placed with a large character "Gamble" written on them.
Needless to say, this was the so-called casino.
Kiyoshi lifted the curtain outside, and saw that the inside was dimly lit.
The air was filled with a faint sll of tobacco and alcohol, mixed together, which was very pungent.
He stepped into it and heard a noisy clamor coming from inside.
So people were shouting loudly, so were cursing in low voices, chips collided with the gambling table making a crisp sound, occasionally mixed with the muffled sound of dice rolling.
Gamblers sat around their respective gambling tables, their eyes fiery, their hands tightly holding the last of their chips.
This was the first ti Kiyoshi had co to such a place, he glanced around, and quickly found Tsunade.
A circle of people gathered around that table, and the atmosphere was particularly lively.
Kiyoshi didn't go over imdiately, but observed these gamblers with his Sharingan.
One of the Sharingan's abilities is 'Copy'!
The higher the pupil power, the higher the efficiency.
Before long, Kiyoshi touched a gambling table and observed its internal structure.
After confirming that it was almost the sa, he walked towards Tsunade's gambling table.
Tsunade looked angry and clenched her fists.
"Are you cheating? How can I keep losing?"
"Oh, Tsunade-sama, who would dare to deceive you?"
The gambler opposite saw Tsunade's clenched fist and imdiately broke out in a cold sweat.
This legendary loser is indeed worthy of her reputation.
She lost hundreds of thousands of ryo, and it was obvious to the naked eye that they would win if she continued to gamble.
But her temper is not very good, if she gets angry, she might punch soone to death.
Although there had never been such a precedent, no one wanted to risk their lives to gamble on the tolerance of the Sannin.
"Hmph, again!"
Tsunade took out new chips and placed them on top.
She had already made up her mind that if she lost too badly later, she would run to the eting point at noon, quickly carry out the mission, and use the reward to avoid debt.
"Okay."
The gambler opposite also put down new chips on the table.
"Count in."
Kiyoshi took a chip from Tsunade's side of the table and placed it in a left-leaning grid.
The ga was very simple, they were playing roulette, which usually has 37 or 38 numbers, and the dealer is responsible for hitting the ball on the rotating roulette, and then the number in the grid where the ball lands is the winning number.
"Kid, you…"
Tsunade was about to reprimand who was so bold as to take her chips.
And that was her last chip!
Then, she looked up and saw Kiyoshi's handso face.
Kiyoshi said, "There's still a while before the appointnt, I'll give you the winnings afterward, Tsunade-sama."
"…Don't even think about it, you little brat who doesn't know any gambling skills." Tsunade's anger subsided.
Yesterday, Konoha had told her about the mission, and explained the mission objectives and information clearly.
They had agreed to et at noon. But she was still busy gambling right now.
Her montum was undoubtedly weakened.
"You don't mind joining in, do you?"
Kiyoshi smiled slightly and looked at the gamblers gathered here.
"It's…Uchiha, that family crest on the back."
"Another ninja, it seems that other Konoha ninjas besides Tsunade-sama rarely co here, don't they have so ninja precepts?"
"What do you care about these things, can you manage the affairs of those ninja?"
The gamblers whispered to each other, they were not resistant to Kiyoshi's joining.
Anyway, the main source of earning here is Tsunade. It didn't matter if one more person shared a piece of the pie.
They had already earned enough.
Later, this money could be used for other gambling projects.
The developed gambling industry now has more than just roulette gambling.
There are also card gas, dice gas, and so on.
There are even electronic gambling devices such as slot machines.
When Orochimaru, Jiraiya and other two groups had gone to Tanabata Street to find Tsunade, she had won several baskets of money with slot machines.
That was one of the few tis Tsunade had won money.
Seeing this, the dealer started the machine.
As the roulette on the table slowly turned, the ball jumped and slid within it, reflecting the dim yellow light, making the spectators dizzy.
At the sa ti, Kiyoshi's fingertips moved slightly.
A delicate chakra thread that was difficult to see clearly protruded from Kiyoshi's fingertips.
The faint transparent chakra thread touched the bottom of the table.
No one noticed Kiyoshi's subtle movents, not even Tsunade.
The chakra fluctuation of that faint transparent thread was extrely subtle.
This technique of condensing 'chakra threads'...
Kiyoshi had learned it from a trait related to puppet techniques.
The puppet techniques he had asked from Sasori were all secrets of Sunagakure.
The technique of condensing 'chakra threads' was naturally much more advanced than those of other ninja villages.
