Chapter 178: The Fiery Tsunade
🕑 Added 2023-11-04 06:09:20 +0000 UTCThinking about this limited-edition ninja being Itachi, Charles was overjoyed, considering the soon-to-be recruitment of both Itachi and Hidan.
Two clear members of the Akatsuki had been confirmed, leaving only Orochimaru, Sasori, Deidara, Kisame, Kakuzu, Konan and Pain left.
Considering the one-year recruitment time on limited-edition ninjas, Charles was confident that there was enough time to recruit Itachi, even though obtaining A-rank ninja fragments was more difficult than B-rank ones.
Charles was also confident in selling some information to S.H.I.E.L.D. if needed, which would enable him to possess Itachi’s Mangekyo Sharingan very soon.
Looking at the Uchiha Itachi in the recruitment interface, Charles did not immediately perform the ninja recruitment.
After all, he wanted to take things step by step. Instead of focusing on Itachi, who couldn't be brought to the real world at the moment, he should be more concerned about Tsunade, who was about to make her appearance.
Taking a deep breath, Charles took another look at Uchiha Itachi sitting on the stone chair and decisively exited the recruitment interface.
Upon entering the battle interface, Charles clicked on the plus sign beside the fighting column, which asked if he wanted to spend 5000 coins to open an additional fighting slot.
Without hesitation, he chose "yes."
The next moment, an additional slot appeared in the fighting column, and Charles's coins decreased from 22304 to 17304.
Looking at the decreased coins, Charles tried to open another slot.
The prompt asked if he wanted to spend 8000 coins to open another fighting slot.
Seeing that the requirement had increased to 8000 instead of doubling, Charles was satisfied. This result was within his acceptable range.
He clicked "no." Charles didn't continue opening fighting slots, as the current seven slots were sufficient for him. He would consider opening more after obtaining new ninjas.
Looking at the as-yet-unsummoned Temari of the Sand and Tsunade, Charles decided to summon them separately. Having two female ninjas appear in the room simultaneously might not be appropriate.
Without further thought, Charles dragged Tsunade's ninja card into the fighting slot.
The prompt asked if he wanted to summon Tsunade within three meters of himself.
"Yes!"
As Charles confirmed, Tsunade's figure began to materialize slowly by Charles's bed. When her figure fully materialized, Tsunade, who had her eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Just a while ago, Tsunade had finished her fight against Hanzo with Orochimaru and Jiraiya. At that time, Jiraiya had decided to stay in the Hidden Rain Village to take care of three war orphans who had come to them.
Tsunade was disappointed with Jiraiya's decision, but she understood that it was her good friend's choice.
However, the next moment, Tsunade's mind gained a new memory and appeared here.
Seeing herself appearing in a room, Tsunade's anger surged upon seeing a man sitting on the bed in his pajamas, looking at her.
Seeing this scene, Tsunade instantly became furious. Despite the fact that Tsunade couldn't harm the person in front of her, she couldn't let the lesson go unlearned.
"Don't play these little tricks anymore... I'll beat you up for real," she warned with a menacing look.
Observing Tsunade's stern expression, Charles immediately realized that something was amiss with the environment in which she had summoned her. In an instant, he thought of the near-death experience that Jiraiya faced.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Charles hurriedly shouted.
"Fierce Kick!" Tsunade ignored Charles's explanation and delivered a high kick.
"Boom!"
With Tsunade's foot landing, not only was Charles's bed shattered, but the cement floor beneath also exploded, creating a large crater on the second floor.
In that split second, Charles quickly moved to the side of the room.
"Clattering!"
The shattered bed fell through the hole and crashed down to the floor below.
Upon hearing the commotion from above, Shizune was startled and rushed towards Charles's room.
"Tsunade, it's a misunderstanding!" Charles waved his hand, trying to explain.
However, Charles, dressed in sleepwear, did not seem like he was trying to clear up a misunderstanding but rather looked like a suspicious man.
Just as Charles was preparing to unleash his power to resist Tsunade's beating, she refrained from attacking.
Tsunade knew it was a misunderstanding, but she just wanted to vent a little. Otherwise, her kick wouldn't have landed on the bed and the floor but on Charles's body.
"Hmph, since it's a misunderstanding, I can forgive you."
"You owe me a drink!"
At this moment, Tsunade was in a bad mood and was ready to have a drink in this relatively safe environment.
As Tsunade finished speaking, before Charles could respond, the door of the room was violently thrown open.
"Lord Charles, are you alright?" Shizune, who had arrived, kicked the door open and anxiously asked.
Hearing the noise at the door, Tsunade curiously turned her head and saw a female ninja who was initially nervous but suddenly showed a pleasantly surprised expression.
Shizune, upon seeing Tsunade, went from a nervous expression to one of joy.
"Lady Tsunade!"
The next moment, Shizune was about to throw herself into Tsunade's arms and express her longing for her in this short period.
However, in her attempt, Shizune didn't manage to hug Tsunade. Instead, Tsunade grabbed her by the head.
"What are you up to?"
Seeing Tsunade's angry voice, Shizune was at a loss and quickly explained, "Lady Tsunade, it's me, Shizune!"
"Shizune?" Tsunade was somewhat surprised.
"I don't know you!" she responded.
Seeing Tsunade not recognizing her, Shizune stood in place, looking to Charles for help, hoping to find an answer from him.
Observing everything that had just happened, Charles spoke up, "You wanted to have a drink, right? Come on, I'll treat you."
As he spoke, Charles walked out of the room first and instructed, "Shizune, remember to inform the renovation company to repair my room."
Seeing Charles leave the room, Tsunade glanced at the nervous female ninja in front of her, and then followed Charles out.
Bringing Tsunade to the dining area, Charles sat down in a circular sofa area and snapped his fingers, calling over a waiter.
"Bring me my cherished Macallan Lalique Series 55-Year-Old Single Malt Whisky, and also bring a bottle of sake and a bottle of red wine."
"Also, get some salmon, sushi, sashimi, tempura, foie gras, mussels, and baby dragon."
Charles directly ordered several dishes that the other party might enjoy. As for the beverages, he wasn't sure if Tsunade could handle Scotch whisky and red wine, so he asked the waiter to bring both.
