"First round."
"Huo Genma!"
"Yohei Shimojima!"
The head examiner stood in the middle of the field and shouted, "The rest of you, please wait in the waiting area!"
"Yes, sir!"
Fifty to sixty people responded in unison and ran down the stands. Soon, only three people were left in the field.
Then, the head examiner took a few steps back, leaving the stage to Huo Genma and Yohei Shimojima.
The audience outside the stone wall had been excited, and the cheers and discussions were endless. Han Feng even saw a few sneaky figures. These people were wearing the same uniform, carrying a small satchel with a chrysanthemum pattern printed on the back and a gambling word in the middle. At first glance, they were the staff of the gambling house related to chrysanthemum.
Cold Wind, who had seen a lot of things, immediately deduced that these guys were betting.
But practice was the only way to test one's reasoning.
He looked at Shihei, coughed lightly, and deliberately pointed at the casino staff and asked, "Shihei sensei, what are those people doing?"
"Chrysanthemum Casino. It's the largest casino in the village. It's said that they have a high-level background and the best reputation. Why, do you want to gamble?"
Shihei glanced at him and said in a serious tone, "I advise you not to touch this. There used to be a very powerful ninja in the village, but because he got involved in gambling, he …"
Cold Wind said righteously, "Shihei sensei, I'm not that kind of person!"
Then, he clutched his stomach and said, "Ouch, my stomach hurts. I'll go find a toilet."
Shihei shook his head.
Cold Wind ran and ran until he couldn't see Shihei and the others anymore. Then, he looked around and found a staff member with a chrysanthemum pattern printed on the back.
He took out a large wad of cash from his pocket and handed it over without even looking at the amount. "I'll bet on Huo Genma!"
Although Huo Genma was a walk-on, he was still a famous person. In the future, he would be the bodyguard of the fourth Naruto, Po Shui Mun. No matter what, he was much more reliable than Yohei Shimojima.
"I'm sorry, the game has already started. We're not accepting any more bets." The staff member smiled. "Would you like to wait for the next game?"
Next match?
Cold Wind felt a little uncomfortable as he watched Shimojima Yohei, who was fighting fiercely with Huo Genma.
He only knew a total of four people in the room. Other than Huo Genma, Obsidian, and Lin, who looked unreliable, there was only Moonlight Smoke left.
But he didn't know when Moonlight Smoke would end up.
Cold Wind pocketed the money and walked over to Zhi Hei in annoyance.
After the competition started, more and more villagers came to watch, and many of them left the field. People came and went, bumping into Cold Wind from time to time.
Cold Wind held the money in his arms. Although he was wearing a Ninja Mask on his head, he couldn't guarantee that a thief would reach out to him, so he still had to be cautious.
However, halfway through, he noticed a familiar figure.
It was an old woman. She wore loose clothes and had a head of dry, dark yellow hair. Her eyes were cloudy, her face was full of wrinkles, and her back was slightly hunched. She was leaning on a walking stick.
Cold Wind recognized her immediately. She was the old woman he met at the mountainside of North Mountain near Thousand Hands Park!
Moreover, Cold Wind had always suspected that she was the legendary fat sheep!
Cold Wind walked over quietly and stood two meters away from her to watch the game.
Because there were many people in the area, the old woman didn't pay much attention to Cold Wind.
About five minutes later, Huo Genma finally defeated Shimojima Yohei, accompanied by loud cheers.
Han Feng felt that he had missed out on a hundred million, and his heart felt very uncomfortable.
At the same time, the head examiner called two more people to the field. One was called Nakamura Yusui, and the other was Lin!
It was also at this time that the old woman made her move.
She grabbed a passing Chrysanthemum Casino employee, pulled out a stack of money from her loose clothes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Nakamura Yusui."
The employee counted the money, put it in his small satchel, and took out a special piece of paper. He wrote down the amount of money, Nakamura Yusui, and the odds. He said enthusiastically, "Honorable guest, because these two are both commoner ninjas, the odds are 1: 1."
"Got it."
The old woman took the paper and looked at the field calmly.
Cold Wind was excited. He hurried over and grabbed the employee, took out all the money, and pretended to be calm. "I'll bet on Lin Harano."
The employee quickly counted the money and wrote him a special receipt with a chrysanthemum pattern on the back.
Cold Wind looked at the amount on the receipt: 301,100.
300,000 was the middleman's profit, 1,000 was the reward for the D-rank mission, and the remaining 100 was pocket money.
After the amount, there was Lin Harano's name, and then the odds, 1: 1.
Cold Wind was overjoyed, but the old woman next to him took the initiative and said with a hoarse voice: "Kid, I see that you are also a ninja, how can you be so stupid to bet on that girl, you will lose."
Cold Wind never thought that she would take the initiative to talk to him. After a while, he said in a reserved and subtle way: "I don't care about winning or losing, I'm just expressing my support for Lin! She is my friend, and a very good ninja. "
"It's a pity."
The old woman smiled and said, "According to the inside information, your friend has begun to practice medical ninjutsu, and the average medical ninja doesn't have much fighting ability."
Inside information?
It must be the information that she stole from Sarutobi.
Cold Wind was a little panicked, but considering the fact that she was a fat sheep, he felt that Lin's chance of winning was quite high.
At the same time, the old woman, Tsunade, suddenly frowned.
Strange, why am I talking to this kid?
Tsunade quietly glanced at Cold Wind, and inexplicably felt that this kid looked familiar. Of course, the most important thing was that he was very pleasing to the eye.
There are very few people who can be pleasing to the eye at first glance, the last one seems to be the Nine Tails Column Force, right?
While Tsunade was thinking, the situation in the field has reached a white-hot level.
Nakamura Yousui and Lin were fighting with their kunai, and from time to time, they used two Ninjutsu, and they were tired and sweaty. After a while, both of them had several wounds on their bodies.
Seeing the blood, Tsunade hurriedly lowered her eyelids and didn't look at those things.
But at this time, Lin bowed her head and used a healing technique on herself, and the scales of victory immediately tilted to Lin.
Although Tsunade didn't directly see it with her eyes, with her experience, she could tell that Lin took the initiative just by listening to the cheers of the crowd. At that time, she excitedly stabbed her crutch into the hard ground.
Cold Wind next to her saw this scene, and his scalp was slightly numb, but he was more certain of his guess.
Although the doubling of his assets made him happy, seeing the old woman's true identity made Cold Wind even happier.
At the same time, Lin successfully defeated Nakamura Yousui in the cheers of the crowd!
In the noise, Cold Wind heard several miserable howls, and he guessed that like Tsunade, they all bought Nakamura Yousui.
Gambling is harmful!
Cold Wind listened to those screams, looked at the crutch that was stabbed into the ground, and couldn't help but raise the flag: I will never gamble in the future!
