Chapter 325 Tsunade: Oh no, I've won the lottery! Jiraiya: Oh no, Konoha is doomed!
Having said all that, everyone had their own judgment.
Raikage also spoke up.
"Tutai, since that's the case, what do you suggest we do now? Are we just going to let them attack our village and do nothing? Wouldn't that make us look cowardly?"
Tsuchikage knew his Raikage's personality all too well. If he were to act like a coward, he was certain that the Raikage's fist, which was bigger than his head, would smash into his face the next moment.
"Of course not. Our Hidden Cloud Village has always believed in revenge, so we can't let them bully us."
However, Lord Raikage, there is more than one Jinchuriki in our village. Isn't your partner also one of the Jinchuriki?
If you leave the village, I'm worried someone might take advantage of the situation and cause trouble.
Upon hearing Tsuchida say that someone would cause trouble while the Raikage was away, almost everyone had the same thought in their minds.
That's the group from Konoha. Based on Tsuchikage's previous deductions, they've already labeled the Konoha delegation as problematic.
"Therefore, Lord Raikage, you absolutely cannot leave the village. To deal with these Akatsuki scoundrels, all we need to do is send out a few more people."
After listening to this, Raikage felt that Tsuchitai's words made sense, and immediately spoke to the person who had delivered the message.
"Hey you, how many people from Akatsuki came?"
"Reporting to Lord Raikage, only two people have arrived, but these two are extremely powerful and cannot be dealt with by ordinary ninjas."
"Two people dare to be so arrogant? They're not exactly easy for ordinary ninjas to handle. I don't believe they can be that strong. Pass on my orders to mobilize an ANBU squad and a Jonin squad to move out together."
"You have to take those two guys down!"
"Yes--!"
At the same time, something similar was also happening in Iwagakure.
Just as the Konoha team arrived at Iwagakure, the Akatsuki team, led by Kisame and Itachi, had already entered the Land of Earth.
In Konoha, Tsunade was working on documents in the Hokage's office.
Just as she reached out her right hand to grab the water glass because she was thirsty, the glass suddenly cracked.
"Clang!"
The cup fell to the ground, spilling water all over the table and soaking the documents.
"Lady Tsunade!"
Hearing the noise, Jingyin quickly ran over to help tidy up the slightly messy desk.
Tsunade, on the other hand, felt a sense of foreboding.
She hurriedly took out a scratch-off lottery ticket from the drawer, scratched it off casually, and sure enough, she won the grand prize.
"Oh no! Something's going to happen."
Jingyin stared at the top prize on the scratch-off lottery ticket, momentarily stunned.
Having spent a long time with Tsunade, she knew very well what it meant if Tsunade suddenly had a change of fortune.
When Tsunade, whose luck with gambling has always been bad, suddenly turns her luck around, it means that something big is about to happen.
"Lady Tsunade."
"Don't panic, mute it."
Tsunade calmly offered a reassuring "Mute."
"Immediately notify everyone to increase vigilance."
"Yes!"
Shizune hurriedly went to relay Tsunade's orders.
Tsunade sat in her seat and pondered for a long time, but still felt that something was amiss.
But the village shouldn't have any problems, so what could it be?
Could it be that people outside the village are the ones who will run into trouble?
"Tsunade, what's wrong? Why did you ask Shizune to tell everyone to strengthen the village's defenses? Has something happened?"
Jiraiya pushed open the door and walked into the office to inquire about Tsunade's situation, since the sudden martial law in the village was a major event.
"I have a bad feeling."
As she spoke, Tsunade pushed the scratch-off lottery ticket on the table toward Jiraiya.
Others might not understand what this meant, but Jiraiya did.
Tsunade's luck with gambling is notoriously bad. Forget about scratch cards, she can't even win a second bottle of the sweet drinks sold by the Chiba Merchant Guild, even if she buys them all.
The last time she had good luck, she participated in the charity gambling king competition and made it all the way to the finals.
Jiraiya knew the outcome: their teacher, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, was gone.
But now Tsunade has actually won the lottery, and this sudden stroke of good luck means that something bad might be about to happen to Konoha again.
"You're right, we should indeed be more careful. But at the end of the day, it's just a scratch-off lottery ticket, nothing more..."
Before Jiraiya could finish speaking, Tsunade took out another scratch card, scratched it off casually, and sure enough, it was the jackpot again.
Then she took out a scratch-off lottery ticket...
"Stop! Stop! Stop scraping!"
Jiraiya was truly frightened now.
"Ding-dong! You have a new message."
Tsunade put down the scratch-off lottery ticket and picked up her phone; her face immediately darkened.
"What's wrong, Tsunade? You don't look well."
Seeing that Tsunade was silent, Jiraiya leaned closer. When he saw the message on his phone screen, his face darkened.
A text message notification came in: Tsunade had won the jackpot with a lottery ticket she had previously purchased.
"Tsunade, could we please stop buying lottery tickets and scratch-off tickets from now on?"
Tsunade frowned and said with dissatisfaction.
"I haven't been to a casino in ages because of all this damn work as Hokage. Can't you let me buy some lottery tickets and scratch-offs to experience that kind of fun?"
Feeling that Tsunade had turned into a powder keg, Jiraiya retreated repeatedly.
That's not what I meant, I just wanted to say...
"Alright, that's enough."
Tsunade interrupted Jiraiya's explanation.
"Go and inform everyone in the village to raise the defense level by one level. Then inform all the ninjas on missions outside the village to be careful and, if possible, complete their missions and return to the village as soon as possible."
"I see."
Jiraiya understood the seriousness of the situation and immediately prepared to leave.
"Lady Tsunade! Something's happened!"
Before Jiraiya could leave, Shizune rushed back.
"Calm down, what happened?"
Tsunade supported the panting Shizune. She couldn't understand what had happened to make Shizune run like this, since Shizune had only just gone out.
"Lady Tsunade, Lady Jiraiya, something has happened. The Akatsuki has attacked Sunagakure, and the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure has been captured."
Naruto and Kakashi, accompanied by Elder Chiyo of Sunagakure, went to rescue the Fifth Kazekage. Meanwhile, in the Land of Lightning, our people had only just arrived in Kumogakure when the Akatsuki attacked the Two-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure!
According to the intelligence relayed back by Kakashi and his group, the Akatsuki's goal is to collect all the Tailed Beasts and launch a Shinobi World War against all the major powers!
"what!"
Tsunade's eyes widened. Even though she had prepared herself mentally, she never expected something so big to happen.
However, none of the above news has much to do with Konoha. The only one that is more relevant is that Naruto and his friends went to the Akatsuki's base to rescue people.
"Could it be that Naruto and the others have gotten into trouble?!"
