[Fifth Mizukage i Terumi @ Tsunade: Old woman, you gambling addict—what qualifications do you even have to be a Kage like ?]
[Tsunade @ i Terumi: Childish brat! Are you ever going to shut up?]
[Jiraiya: Hahaha! That's the Tsunade I know and love.]
[Tsunade: You can shut up too!]
[Orochimaru: How embarrassing. Sharing the title of Legendary Sannin with you two is shaful. Guess if this is why I defected from the Leaf?]
[Tsunade: As if you're any better, you poison-obsessed freak.]
[Second Hokage Tobirama Senju: Damn monkey, do you ever teach your students properly? Look at how all of your disciples turned out.]
[Izuna Uchiha: You're not exactly qualified to complain, are you? Take a look at those two students of yours.]
...
The footage continued.
[The Fourth Raikage stared blankly. "Bet?"]
[Tsunade smiled. "You said you'd use force, right? Fine. If you can beat in an arm-wrestling match, I'll go with you."]
[The Fourth Raikage agreed. The two went to the back courtyard, put their arms on a boulder, and prepared to arm wrestle.]
[When the referee shouted "Start," both of them burst out with massive chakra.]
[The boulder and the ground beneath began to crack.]
[The Fourth Raikage was stunned. He hadn't expected this woman's strength to actually be above his.]
[His arm was quickly forced downward. Even using all the strength he had wasn't enough.]
["I can't lose… If I lose, then Karui will…"]
[Thinking that, the Raikage suddenly relaxed his arm, letting Tsunade overextend, then used the chance when her balance shifted to launch a fast counterattack.]
[He won—by cheating.]
[The footage ended there.]
Group chat.
Everyone started arguing again.
[Karui: Lord Raikage!!! (deeply moved)]
[Fourth Raikage A @ Tsunade: I clearly won. So why did the scroll say my strength is inferior to yours?]
[Tsunade @ Fourth Raikage A: Are you seriously lying with your eyes open? Setting aside that you cheated to win—didn't you see your own shocked reaction in the footage?]
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki @ Fourth Raikage A: Who was it again that thought, "What! This woman's strength is actually above mine?"]
[Chiyo @ Fourth Raikage A: When it cos to having no sha, I really must hand it to you.]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju: You cheated and still dare to brag? And my little Tsunade clearly wasn't using her full strength.]
[Second Hokage Tobirama Senju: Tsunade's monstrous strength has been terrifying since childhood. What showed in that footage wasn't her full power at all.]
[Orochimaru: I have to admit, if Tsunade went all out, even with cheating you wouldn't stand a chance. @ Fourth Raikage A]
[Jiraiya: I've had two brushes with death. One of them was…]
[Tsunade @ Jiraiya: Shut it.]
[Fifth Mizukage i Terumi: In the end, what matters is the result, not the process. Even if A cheated, you still lost, old woman. How embarrassing—you can't even beat soone who's cheating.]
[Tsunade @ i Terumi: Co on then. Let's arm wrestle. I'll use one finger. You can use both hands. If I lose, I'll admit I'm a "pretending-to-be-young old woman" in the chat. If you lose, you admit you're "a childish brat who can't compare to Lady Tsunade." Deal?]
At that mont—
A popup suddenly appeared in the group.
[Event: Tsunade vs. Fifth Mizukage i Terumi – Arm-Wrestling Match]
[Rules: Tsunade may only use one finger. i Terumi may use both hands.]
[Penalty: If Tsunade loses, her group nickna will be changed to "Pretending-to-be-young old woman." If i Terumi loses, her group nickna will be changed to "Childish brat who can't compare to Lady Tsunade."]
[The event will begin in 3 minutes. Both participants, please prepare.]
[After 3 minutes, the two will be summoned to the competition room for an arm-wrestling match. The match will be broadcast live via video to the entire ninja world and the Pure Land.]
[All group mbers may participate in a prediction bet. There is no penalty for guessing wrong. Correct guesses will receive rewards. Please participate enthusiastically.]
[Betting rules:
– If Tsunade wins, correct bettors receive a small chakra pack.
– If i Terumi wins, correct bettors receive a large chakra pack.]
[Please confirm receipt of this announcent.]
Everyone who saw the announcent was stunned at first—
Then got wildly excited.
Who would've thought the chat could trigger activities like this?
Group chat.
[Madara Uchiha has confird the announcent]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju has confird the announcent]
[Naruto Uzumaki has confird the announcent]
[...]
Once the "announcent received" ssages spamd the chat—
Everyone beca extrely active.
[Deidara: Guys, who're we supposed to bet on, yeah?]
[Naruto Uzumaki: Isn't it obvious? Tsunade-baa-chan, of course! She's from Konoha—we have to support our own.]
[Sasuke Uchiha: Naruto, that's the wrong reasoning. It should be Tsunade-sama, but that's because in a pure arm-wrestling contest, she's guaranteed to win.]
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki @ Deidara: Deidara, follow your teacher's lead. I'm betting on Tsunade.]
[Kurotsuchi @ Deidara: Listen to Grandpa—you'll be fine.]
[Chōjūrō: I believe in Lady Mizukage. I'm betting on her.]
[Jiraiya: Do your best, Tsunade. You know why I'm betting on you.]
[Nagato Uzumaki @ All mbers of Akatsuki: Betting on i to win gives a bigger reward, but she has no chance. Akatsuki will all bet on Tsunade.]
[Chiyo @ All Sand shinobi: Our village is allied with Konoha, so of course we support them. Everyone from the Sand, bet on Tsunade.]
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki @ All Stone shinobi: Just follow my lead and bet on Tsunade.]
[Fourth Raikage A @ All Cloud shinobi: If you want rewards, I don't need to tell you who to bet on, do I?]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju @ All Leaf shinobi: This is basically free rewards. Just bet on my little Tsunade.]
[Fifth Mizukage i Terumi @ All Mist shinobi: For the rewards, everyone should bet on Tsunade.]
[All Mist shinobi @ i Terumi: Lady Mizukage, you saved our village. Even if we miss the rewards, we'll still support you.]
i was a little touched.
Her efforts for the village hadn't been in vain.
Just when everyone thought Tsunade was the obvious choice—
Madara suddenly tagged everyone.
[Madara Uchiha @ Everyone: Doesn't anyone want that large chakra pack?]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju @ Madara Uchiha: Madara, a large chakra pack ans nothing to . I'll support Tsunade no matter what. This is a bet any person with a brain should know how to pick.]
[Second Hokage Tobirama Senju: My brother's right. The large pack is nicer, sure—but what's the point if you can't win it?]
[Mito Uzumaki @ Madara Uchiha: You're clearly trying to trick everyone so nobody gets any prizes, aren't you?]
[Madara Uchiha @ First Hokage Hashirama Senju: Hashirama, if the match was purely by strength, Tsunade would definitely win. But now everyone can participate in the betting. And if i wins, everyone gets the bigger reward. So why not choose the better prize?]
[Izuna Uchiha: Brother, I get it! I understand what you're planning! You're a genius!]
[Madara Uchiha: Otōto, you're smart too. You figured it out so fast.]
[Izuna Uchiha: Brother! Brother!]
[Madara Uchiha: Otōto! Otōto!]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju @ Madara Uchiha: Madara, what are you getting at?]
[Izuna Uchiha: You're so dense. My brother ans we should all bet on i Terumi!]
[Second Hokage Tobirama Senju: Who are you calling dense? Even if we all bet on i, she still can't beat Tsunade, so we still wouldn't get the reward.]
[Izuna Uchiha: That's why you're dense. Just have Tsunade throw the match and lose on purpose. Right, Brother?]
[Second Hokage Tobirama Senju: So you're suggesting a fixed match?]
[Madara Uchiha: My little brother is right. This way, everyone gets the big chakra pack. @ First Hokage Hashirama Senju, you following?]
[First Hokage Hashirama Senju: Madara, that is a great idea. Should we do it?]
[Tsunade @ First Hokage Hashirama Senju: I refuse! If I lose, my nickna changes to "Pretending-to-be-young old woman." I'm not giving that childish brat sothing to laugh about for the rest of my life.]
[Fifth Mizukage i Terumi: I think it's a great idea. Old woman, think about it— even if your nickna doesn't change, you think I'm not going to mock you anyway?]
Tsunade had to admit that made so sense…
But sothing still felt off.
[Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki: As expected of Konoha. You people know how to play. But now there's an issue—fixed match or not?]
[Fourth Raikage A: Exactly. Who do we actually bet on?]
[Chiyo @ Tsunade: You decide.]
[...]
While everyone kept arguing about who to bet on—
All of them suddenly received a new popup from the chat.
[In 10 seconds, Tsunade and i Terumi will be summoned to the competition room for their arm-wrestling match. Contestants, please prepare.]
