According to Tsunade, Shikkotsu Forest's location was very remote. It was basically impossible to find it by simply relying on the map.
However, she also had a way to find Shikkotsu Forest.
There was no country near Shikkotsu Forest. It was in a remote primeval forest.
Despite how it looked, this planet had a lot of uninhabited lands because of the hazardous environment, and it was really difficult to survive there.
The people of this planet did not know why that happened. As far as they knew, the world has always been that way, so they did not care. There was enough room for them to live anyway.
Nagasawa had a guess why this planet was plagued with disasters. In its development process, an alien that wanted to plant Divine Tree suddenly came to this planet.
To produce Chakra Fruit, they had to use the entire planet as nourishment.
And Kaguya succeded in doing so and ate the Chakra Fruit herself.
In addition, the battle between Kaguya and her two sons were quite devastating.
Therefore, Nagasawa believed that was the reason why the there were a lot of places with hazardous environment in this planet.
The journey to Shikkotsu Forest was very long. Even Tsunade tried her best to restrain her desire to gamble and just prevented herself from going anywhere near the bustling entertainment area go, in case she could no longer restrain herself.
"I should've charge you ten million Ryo for such a long journey." Tsunade felt worse and worse along the way.
Nagasawa rolled his eyes and said annoyedly, "Five million taels is my limit. I may have to learn from the former Hokage Assistant to make some extra money."
"Sure, but you have to give me half of it. Otherwise, I will report you to Minato." Tsunade joked.
"Lord Tsunade, slow down. I am running out of Chakra." Shizune, who was running behind Tsunade panted.
It was too much of a torture for her to keep up with Tsunade and Nagasawa.
"Shizune, you must be tired. Let's find a place to rest first." Tsunade looked around and found a small town not far ahead.
"Then let's do so." Nagasawa nodded, but he was not in a hurry.
Since Ryuchi Cave and Mount Myoboku had not notified him, there was no point in rushing to get to Shikkotsu Forest.
The three of them were currently in the Land of Birds.
The Land of Bird was west from Land of Fire, to the north of Land of Wind, to the south of Iwagakure.
The Land of Bird was an ordinary small country with mostly lakes and swamps in its territory. There was no Hidden Village in this country.
Because of these reasons, the Land of Bird was very weak. The reason why it could exist until now was because of the silent tacit understanding between the five great countries. That was not to invade the territory of the small countries, but to act as a buffer zone between the big countries.
They then headed to a small town in the Land of Bird, looking for a place to rest.
Suddenly, Tsunade saw a very stylish tavern, and she said,
"It's been a long time since I last had a drink. Why don't we go in and have a drink?"
"Lord Tsunade, you just drank it two days ago. It wasn't long ago. It's better to just rest and set off early, so that Lord Nagasawa's time won't be wasted." Shizune reminded.
Tsunade squeezed Shizune's neck between her arms that she couldn't breathe,
"Oh, Lord Tsunade! I was wrong. Let me go, I can't breathe."
Tsunade said annoyedly, "What have I raised you for? You actually side with Nagasawa instead of me."
Despite what Tsunade said, she let go of Shizune very quickly. However, once she let go of her, she felt that it was not enough and smacked Shizune's head.
"Haha, it's fine. I'm not in such a hurry. Let's have some drink." Nagasawa smiled.
The three of them walked into the noisy tavern. Because it was so noisy, Nagasawa wanted a private room.
The private room was on the second floor. They then walked up the stairs, but Tsunade suddenly stopped in front of a private room.
"Ma'am, your private room is not ready yet." The waiter who led the way said.
"It's okay. We're meeting an acquaintance." Tsunade said and was ready to open the door.
Nagasawa stood there silently. He could hear the voice of the person in the room, but he could not tell who it was from the voice, because he was not familiar with it, but it should be a Shinobi, because Nagasawa heard the word "Shinobi World War".
"Sir, you can't break into someone else's private room." The waiter was about to stop Tsunade.
But when he was about to do so, the waiter noticed that he could not take another step as if he was tied to a boulder. He looked back and saw Nagasawa put his hand on his shoulder.
"I wouldn't if I were you." Nagasawa kindly reminded.
With Tsunade's strength, this waiter's bones would break.
The waiter was instantly terrified and did not stop Tsunade.
He knew that the person he was dealing with was probably Shinobi. He was just an ordinary person who wanted to make money and did not want to lose his life for this trivial matter.
"Who is it?"
Jiraiya, who was hugging two young ladies with revealing clothes, said annoyedly when he heard the door open.
But when Jiraiya saw who it was, he was dumbfounded.
"Sir, tell me about the story of you saving your bad-tempered and paralyzed friend in Shinobi World War" The woman sitting on Jiraiya's right lap said as she slid her finger on Jiraiya's chest.
"Breaking into someone else's private room? That's rude!" The woman sitting on Jiraiya's left lap scolded Tsunade.
"Jiraiya, I see that you are alive and well." Tsunade looked at the two women sitting on Jiraiya and raised her eyebrows.
"You..." The woman sitting on Jiraiya's left leg wanted to scold Tsunade again because she still didn't leave, but Jiraiya didn't care about the two women sitting on his laps. He quickly got up and dragged Tsunade out.
