"Let's talk outside." Jiraiya wanted to drag Tsunade out.
"Forget it, there's nothing to talk about. I just want to come in and see how the great hero who saved his bad-tempered teammates in the Shinobi World War doing."
Tsunade didn't sound annoyed at all, but Jiraiya felt like he was being stabbed by so many sharp knives.
"Shizune, let's go to our private room." Tsunade then asked the waiter to lead the way.
"You guys should go." Jiraiya sighed as he asked to the two women in his private room to leave.
"Although you cut the shift short, you won't get your money back," The woman reminded.
"It's fine." Jiraiya waved his hand, feeling very depressed.
"See you later, Jiraiya-san." Nagasawa greeted Jiraiya.
Nagasawa also did not expect that the person in the room was actually Jiraiya. Otherwise, he would have stopped Tsunade.
Just now, Nagasawa could feel the awkward atmosphere. Jiraiya probably wanted to immediately use Earth Release to burrow into the ground.
There was nothing worse than bumping into the girl you liked in the tavern while two girls were sitting on your lap.
Nagasawa estimated that he might have to be extra careful with the food he ate if he took Jiraiya's place and Nono took Tsunade's place.
As an elite Root, Nono could be said to be very good at poisoning.
"Wait a minute, are you the Nagasawa that Minato was talking about?" Jiraiya suddenly felt that Nagasawa was a little familiar.
More than a month before Nine-Tails' attack, he actually returned to Konoha and visited Minato and Kushina.
However, because Jiraiya left very quickly, he did not meet Nagasawa, but Minato told him a lot about Nagasawa and even showed his photos.
"I am." Nagasawa nodded.
"Can I ask why you are here? Are you doing a mission? If it is a mission, I can help." Jiraiya asked.
"It's not a mission. I need to go to Shikkotsu Forest to see the Slug Sage. Because I don't know Shikkotsu Forest's location, I need Lord Tsunade to lead the way." Nagasawa replied.
"I see..." Jiraiya was in a dilemma. He at first planned to help to appease Tsunade.
This was the worst. Now, Tsunade might think that he did nothing but goof around in the tavern every day despite his claim to travel around the world.
"Why don't you come with me and explain it to Lord Tsunade?" Nagasawa suggested.
Nagasawa liked Jiraiya quite a bit.
Among the Sannin, Jiraiya was the weakest at first, but Jiraiya eventually learned Sage Mode, and his strength increased significantly since then.
Even without any information in his disposal, he could kill three Pain by himself.
For someone that wasn't blessed or related with Sage of the Six Paths' power, Jiraiya might just be the strongest human.
Moreover, there was one thing that Nagasawa liked about Jiraiya. Although he had the responsibility to find the so-called child of prophecy, he did not forget that he was Konoha's Shinobi.
He contributed a lot to Konoha as he traveled around the world, and Nagasawa would never hate that type of people.
After all, the stronger Konoha was, the stronger he was as well. It was really hard for Nagasawa to hate someone who would make him stronger.
"Makes sense. I'll have to face it sooner or later anyway." Jiraiya showed an expression like he was going to plunge into the battlefield.
Nagasawa entered the room first. Jiraiya paused for a moment, but went in anyway after gritting his teeth.
At this time, the waiter had not brought the drinks yet. Tsunade was lying on the table as Shizune massaged her back.
Seeing Jiraiya come in, Tsunade looked at Jiraiya indifferently, but she did not say anything.
When she saw Jiraiya with two women in the private room, Tsunade was indeed a little angry. She had been working five days a week, yet Jiraiya could play around outside.
However, when she walked to the private room, she also realized that she was just Jiraiya's old friend. She did not have any right to say anything here. After all, Jiraiya was not a kid, and he did not have a wife either.
"Actually, there was nothing going on between me and those two just now. I was just collecting materials for writing a new book." Jiraiya tried to defend himself.
"Yes." Tsunade nodded and did not say anything.
Despite what Tsunade said, Jiraiya knew that Tsunade was angry. After all, women were the scariest when they didn't say anything.
"Speaking of which, after so long, have you found the disciple who can change this world?" Tsunade askd casually.
"Hahaha." Jiraiya laughed loudly. This was one of the few things that made him feel proud.
"I don't know. Perhaps one of them is among the disciples that I have looked after, but there's a chance that they're still waiting for me out there."
When he met Nagato and discovered that he had Rinnegan, Jiraiya once thought that Nagato was the child of the prophecy.
After that, he heard that Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan were working hard to obtain peace and made some progress, so he became even more convinced.
But now that he no longer heard any news from them, Jiraiya thought that the child of the prophecy was someone else.
Sometimes Jiraiya even suspected that Minato was the child of prophecy.
However, Jiraiya did not want to gamble. According to the Great Toad Sage's prophecy, the child of prophecy was too important to this world. It may bring destruction or a new change.
He wanted to find the child of prophecy child and guide him to the right path.
"Why are you laughing if you don't know?" Tsunade looked at Jiraiya speechlessly.
"The drinks are here." The waiters brought the dishes and wine to the table.
"Having a drink together sure brings back memories." Jiraiya suddenly reminisced about when he, Orochimaru and Tsunade were doing missions together.
"Then why don't you have a drinking competition with Nagasawa? But no cheating with Chakra." Tsunade suddenly said.
She had seen Nagasawa's alcohol tolerance before, and it certainly was a sight to see. His expression remained unchanged even after drinking a bucket of liquor.
On the other hand, Jiraiya's alcohol tolerance should be as good as her.
Tsunade was looking forward to seeing Jiraiya lose miserably.
Nagasawa had given her the taste of her medicine, so Jiraiya should feel it, too.
"I have heard a lot of rumors about you and Minato, but I won't lose when it comes to drinking." Jiraiya said confidently.
