Seeing the look of terror on Tsunade's face, Akidō Genbu felt a deep sense of sympathy.
He gently set Kushina Uzumaki down and walked over to help Tsunade up, but her spirit clearly hadn't returned yet.
With a helpless sigh, he shook his head, pulled out a 100,000-ryō bill—the largest denomination—from his ninja pouch, and waved it in front of her.
Tsunade instantly sprang back to life.
The bill vanished from Genbu's hand in a flash, stuffed straight into her magnificent cleavage.
"Mr. Genbu, you're the best~"
Tsunade hugged him tightly, letting him once again experience the overwhelming softness of her chest.Ah—this supreme pleasure. No matter how many times he experienced it, it was still utterly irresistible.
Kushina, who witnessed the entire scene, looked down at her own chest, then at Tsunade's soft curves, and finally lowered her proud head.
There really was no comparison.
The perceptive Minato Namikaze immediately understood Kushina's frustration and comforted her gently:
"Kushina, don't put yourself down. You're amazing."
"Hmph, you little pervert."
Kushina turned her head away proudly—but the corners of her lips curled upward.
Minato wanted to cry but couldn't. All he could do was weep silently in his heart:
I was just trying to comfort you… and honestly, your comfort is the best. Truly.
Meanwhile, Jiraiya was so furious he was about to explode.
"This is something I've dreamed of doing for over ten years and never succeeded—and that brat did it with just ten ryō?! I hate that Genbu kid for getting there first!"
"You lecherous little punk! Get out of that sacred place!"
Jiraiya pointed angrily at Genbu, his stance so wide it looked like he was about to stride into the Land of Water.
Genbu knew this wasn't the place for tenderness—it would only invite hatred. Reluctantly tearing himself away from Tsunade's beauty, he explained:
"I didn't mean to. It's just that Lady Tsunade was… too enthusiastic."
Rarely speaking up, Orochimaru remarked calmly:
"Genbu-kun, you should wipe the nosebleed first."
"Hmph, that's right—you little pervert," Jiraiya added.
Genbu spun around, wiped the blood from his nose, then turned back in one smooth motion.
Seeing Tsunade clutching her money and showering kisses on Genbu without the slightest seriousness—while Genbu stood there wearing a satisfied expression, nose still faintly bloody—Jiraiya completely snapped.
Crossing his legs, he pointed at Genbu.
"Kid, you dare fight me? Bullying juniors is pointless. Let me teach you what real strength is."
Genbu considered this carefully.
Jiraiya is an elite jōnin—one of the very best.
After returning from the Land of Rain and enduring days of brutal training, his strength had risen again, especially his Dominant Power. A fierce, no-holds-barred battle was the best way to sharpen it. Its attachment range and duration had both increased dramatically.
He felt he was nearing the legendary threshold of entanglement hardening.
A duel with Jiraiya would be the perfect test of his limits.
Genbu nodded. "Alright."
Hearing there would be a duel, Tsunade grew excited again.
Holding up her money, she shouted, "I'm opening a betting pool—who's in?"
Kushina: "Brother Genbu, you're the best! So I'll bet 1,000 ryō on Lord Jiraiya winning."
She wagered all 500 ryō she'd just won.
Minato: "Brother Genbu, do your best. I'll always support you—so I'm betting 1,000 ryō on Lord Jiraiya."
These two fence-sitters betrayed me together. I really want to punch this shameless couple.
Nawaki: "No need for words. 2,000 ryō—Lord Jiraiya will win."
Orochimaru: "Two. Jiraiya."
The situation completely flipped. Everyone was betting on Jiraiya.
Then suddenly, Sakumo Hatake appeared.
"Betting? Count me in. Two—Jiraiya."
Jiraiya was overjoyed, hands in his pockets, one leg trembling with excitement.
"I bet on myself. Kid, it's not too late to surrender."
"We haven't started yet," Genbu replied calmly. "So we don't know who'll win or lose."
He turned to Sakumo.
"Sakumo-sama, your drinks tonight are on me—double."
Now it was Sakumo's turn to feel awkward.
He was only here because he'd run out of alcohol. Genbu's brew had conquered not just Tsunade, but this ruthless alcoholic as well.
Finally, Tsunade placed her bet.
"I believe my Genbu-kun will win. I bet… two points."
She was clearly drunk—at her place, he'd already become Genbu-kun.
Now it was Genbu's turn to smile.
Yes, yes, I'm yours, my princess. It's just two cents—if I lose, so be it. Worst case, I'll keep using Shadow Clones and win it all back with you at the casino.
At this point, everyone finally understood why this man was so rich.
Training Ground No. 5
Two figures stood once more at the center.
"Come on, kid. Same rules as always. If we both get each other's bells, it's a win. And if I don't get yours within twenty minutes, you win."
Jiraiya grinned.
"Let's make it interesting. You taught Minato the Rasengan, right? If I win, teach me too."
"And if you lose?" Genbu asked.
"How could I lose? If you win, I'll let you do whatever you want to me."
"That sounds great."
Genbu stopped joking. His Sharingan activated.
In one second, he formed six seals.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!"
A massive fireball five meters wide roared straight toward Jiraiya.
"That casting speed is insane," Jiraiya muttered, surprised.
But his hands weren't slow either.
"Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall!"
A wall of earth rose, blocking the fireball. Jiraiya hid safely behind it.
"So—which direction will you attack from next?"
He got his answer immediately.
A giant lightning-charged sword split through both flames and earth.
Chidori Blade.
The wall was cleaved apart, the attack surging straight toward him.
"So you really don't play by the rules."
Jiraiya leapt back and summoned a twin-blade-wielding toad to block the strike. The two sides clashed violently.
Then—
Dozens of kunai rained down from the sky.
They multiplied mid-air, turning into thousands—a true kunai storm.
"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu? That chakra pool is ridiculous."
"Ninja Art: Toad Oil Needle Barrage!"
Jiraiya's white hair hardened and extended, wrapping around him. The kunai struck it like metal on steel.
Through the gaps, Jiraiya carefully observed—especially the technique's weakness: his unprotected feet.
"Double Transformation!"
A massive fist slammed into Jiraiya from behind.
He instantly altered his hand signs. Dozens of hairs turned into steel needles, stabbing forward.
But instead of retreating, the giant fist smashed straight through them.
The needles shattered.
"…Earth hardening? Or that power Orochimaru mentioned?"
Jiraiya changed tactics. Thousands of hairs shot out, merging mid-air into three massive diamond-shaped drills, crashing toward the fist.
But he had forgotten one thing—
Who Akidō Genbu's master was.
Three months was enough to further refine his monstrous strength. Though still imperfect, he could already wield it in battle.
Super-Strength Punch.
The drills shattered.
Yet Jiraiya emerged unscathed, having used an Earth Style substitution at the last moment.
"Tsunade really taught you everything…"
But the instant he reappeared, a voice sounded behind him:
"Lord Jiraiya, getting distracted in battle isn't wise."
A Chidori blade came down.
Jiraiya spun and spat—
"Fire Style: Flame Bullet!"
The explosion swallowed Genbu whole.
In the next instant, Genbu reappeared ten meters in front of him, blade in hand.
"Aren't you afraid of burning me to death, Lord Jiraiya?"
"That was just a flame bomb. You only need to dodge it."
"If I believed that, I'd be shocked."
By now, the twin-blade toad had dispelled Genbu's shadow clone and charged again.
Jiraiya drew his kunai and rushed forward.
"Genbu, the one in front of me this time isn't a clone."
Facing attacks from both sides, Genbu remained calm.
He spat on the ground.
"Earth Style: Rising Earth Wall."
A ten-meter-high wall lifted him upward, separating Jiraiya and the toad.
From above, Genbu dove straight down toward Jiraiya.
"Escaping the ground? Swamp of the Underworld!"
The earth instantly turned into a muddy quagmire as Jiraiya leapt away.
"Now then—how will you change direction in mid-air?"
