Shizune hugged the piglet, looked back at the debt collectors who wanted to eat them alive, and suggested helplessly to Tsunade next to her while running wildly.
However, Tsunade obviously did not intend to accept her proposal, and tightly hugged the box in her hand.
"No, this is my last fortune. When we change towns, we can pay them back after we win the money!"
Shizune covered her forehead and didn't try to persuade her again, because she knew she couldn't persuade him.
"Tsunade-sama, go there, there are many people there, it's easy to get rid of them!"
Although both of them are powerful ninjas, in order to prevent debt collectors from knowing their true identities, they would go to Konoha to collect debts, so they rarely reveal their identities as ninjas in front of debt collectors.
If you are being chased by a large group of people like now, the best thing is to run to a crowded place, take advantage of the debt collectors not being able to see them, and then quietly use the transformation technique to run away.
However, just when the two of them were about to rush into the crowd at the snack street, a monk wearing a bamboo hat suddenly raised his Zen staff and blocked their way.
"Hey! In broad daylight, grown men like you bully two little girls. How can a poor monk just stand by and watch!"
Tsunade and Shizune couldn't show their physiques beyond normal people, so they had no choice but to stop escaping first.
When the debt collectors saw this, they naturally stopped.
"Where are the monks who are meddling in other people's business? It's because they don't pay back their debts. We are just recovering our due debts. Even if the government officials come, it is only right!"
The leading debt collector raised the big stick in his hand and said angrily.
Li Chuan put down the Zen staff in his hand and performed a Buddhist salute:
"Indeed, it is natural to repay debts, but we cannot use such violent means to collect debts. How about this. How much money the two girls owe you, the monk can advance for them."
"You really mean what you say!"
When these debt collectors heard that the monk in front of them was actually willing to help pay back the money, their expressions immediately changed from anger to joy.
It doesn't matter who pays back the money, as long as they can get the money, their mission is completed, and they can go back and report to their respective bosses.
Over there, Tsunade and Shizune, who were about to sneak away while Li Chuan was talking to the debt collector, suddenly stopped in their tracks when they heard that the monk in front of them actually wanted to help them pay off their debts.
"There are actually such stupid...good people in this world."
"Tsunade-sama, you owe so much, and he may not have that much money to pay back."
"Don't worry, let's take a look first and make sure we don't run away again."
Although the two did not speak, they made eye contact and decided on the next action plan.
In short, there are four words: act according to circumstances.
"Seriously, the young monk's family is relatively well-off and he also has some spare money."
Li Chuan performed the Buddhist ritual again and then replied seriously.
"She owes me a million!"
"She owes me half a million!"
"She owes me three million!"
...
Hearing Li Chuan's words, the creditors took out their IOUs one after another and made a rough calculation. All of Tsunade's gambling debts added up to 30 million taels.
Even though Li Chuan was prepared, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
You know, for a normal A-level mission in a ninja village, the reward is only between 150,000 and 1,000,000 taels, and it is divided among the entire team members.
Thirty million taels, how many A-level tasks must be completed to get such a reward.
Seeing that Li Chuan seemed to be hesitant, Tsunade handed Shizune the box and rushed to Li Chuan's side with a whoosh, pretending to be pitiful and said:
"My lord, my daughter was deceived and owed so much money because she was young and ignorant. You are kind enough to help me pay it back first. I will write you an IOU and pay you back as soon as I have the money!"
"
In Tsunade's opinion, the money owed to dozens of casinos was being collected everywhere every day, so it was naturally not as good as the money owed to the little monk in front of her.
The key point is that this young monk looks like a good-tempered person at first glance. Even if he pays it back later, it will be fine. And who is Tsunade? She will definitely be able to make a comeback next time. When she wins money, she will naturally return all the money to the young monk.
.
"You are already fifty years old, but you are still young and ignorant. As expected of you."
Holding back his inner complaints, Li Chuan pretended to be embarrassed, and finally sighed.
"Okay, since I'm traveling now and I don't really need the money, I'll lend it to you to pay off my debt first. But girl, remember that you will lose nine out of ten bets, so don't bet again in the future."
"Remember, definitely remember!"
Tsunade skillfully took out a pen and paper, quickly wrote an IOU for thirty million taels, stuffed it into Li Chuan's arms, and then quickly disappeared into the street with Shizune.
Li Chuan was stunned for a moment when he saw this, then turned to the group of debt collectors and smiled:
"Then everyone, just follow me to the bank to withdraw money!"
From today on, he, Li Chuan, may be Tsunade's biggest creditor.
The Fifth Hokage owes the Prince of Fire Country 30,000,000 taels. As long as he does not raise any excessive conditions in the future, I believe Tsunade will be lenient for the sake of the IOU.
Things like money must be spent in useful places to be valuable. Otherwise, if they are kept there, they will be just a pile of waste paper.
After taking the debt collectors to the bank to withdraw money, he stopped staying in this town and headed towards the Country of Waves again as planned.
In the evening, Li Chuan looked at the sea shrouded in thick fog, as well as the faintly visible island and the half-repaired bridge in front of him, and murmured to himself:
"Just wait here. According to the distance between Konoha Hidden Village and here, they shouldn't arrive until tomorrow."
After thinking for a moment, he walked to the coast and quickly formed a seal with his hands:
"Thunder Escape·Earth Walk!"
A strong force of thunder and lightning spread along the surface of the sea along the palm of his hand, and soon four or five sea fish emerged from the water with their bellies swollen.
Li Chuan took out a long spear from the mission space, skewered a few sea fish, and began to prepare today's dinner.
Although most of the items in the mission space are worthless, they are not like ordinary items that cannot be carried when traveling through the world.
Even after arriving in the Naruto world, the items he obtained from previous side missions in Sokovia can be accessed from the mission space at any time.
So even if he is sleeping in the wild now, he can always take out a series of daily necessities such as tents, pillows, lighters, pots, bowls, ladles, basins, etc.
In fact, it cannot be said that they are all worthless, but they are worthless in a modern society like Marvel.
If one day we enter a world with very backward technology, then maybe any modern daily item in the mission space can be sold as a treasure for a high price.
Moreover, the role of the mission space is not only that, if used well, it will also be of great help to the battle.
