Chapter 117: Haneda's Upset at the Casino

"The winner is Hatake Kakashi!"

When the referee announced Kakashi as the winner, cheers broke out from the stands.

The audience was amazed at the powerful force unleashed by Might Guy, as well as Kakashi's wonderful game of strategy and final outburst of swordsmanship.

It was a great fight, no doubt about it.

The Sandaime looked at the leaves of the new generation, and unconsciously looked at Minato, looked at Sakumo, and finally fixed his eyes on Haneda.

He took a puff of his pipe silently and thought of his former companion, Uchiha Kagami.

But Haneda did not show the same love for the village as Jing.

"Kakashi, I hope you can defeat Haneda once..." The Sandaime thought as he looked at Kakashi's figure.

On the other side of the spectator seats.

Sakumo couldn't help but smile as he looked at Kakashi, who had almost crushed Gomon Kai and whose strength was definitely that of a jonin.

He turned his head and smiled at Haneda:

"Be careful, he still has one trick up his sleeve."

Asuma heard that such a powerful Kakashi had not yet exerted his full strength, and asked worriedly:

"Sakumo-sensei! Is it possible for Kakashi to defeat Haneda-sama with that move?!"

"That move is the ultimate change in the nature of Lightning Release Chakra. Although Kakashi has not yet fully mastered it, it is enough for him to perform it." Sakumo said with a smile.

At this time, Haneda spoke:

"No matter how Kakashi's lightning chakra properties and form changes are, I will still be stronger than him."

Hearing Haneda-sama speak confidently, Asuma couldn't help but blush at his previous nervousness and worry.

He turned his head and slapped her:

"How can I not trust Brother Haneda? Damn it!!"

After Kai was carried away by the medical ninja and Kakashi left, the referee announced:

"The next match is between Uchiha Haneda and Nohara Lin."

Hearing that Rin was about to go on stage, Obito shouted to Haneda:

"Haneda! Remember to be gentle!"

"Don't worry, I'm never violent towards girls." Haneda jumped down from the spectator seats and turned to say to Obito.

Hearing this, Obito looked at Lin who was walking off the stage:

"If you can't beat him, remember to admit defeat. Don't try to be tough. That guy Haneda is always rude."

Lin smiled and responded, "Why did you tell me what I said to you before, Obito?"

"I, I, just care about Lin, haha..."

Obito lowered his head, his face slightly red, and kept scratching the back of his head.

After Haneda and Lin entered the arena and stood in position, the referee raised the red flag and announced:

"Uchiha Haneda versus Nohara Rin, the ninja battle begins!"

The moment the flag fell, Haneda immediately opened the three-magatama Sharingan.

Before Lin could react, the hypnotic eyes were activated, and Lin's pupils instantly turned into three magatama.

"Referee, I give up." The controlled Lin raised his right hand and said loudly.

After hearing this, the audience in the stands were unable to react for a moment.

By the time the referee announced the end of the game, the playing field exploded like a powder keg.

"Seconds?"

"what's the situation?!"

"It's an illusion, right? It's almost impossible for the Uchiha clan to win in a one-on-one fight with their illusions."

……

Unlike ordinary spectators, everything was calm in Sunagakure as they had already known the power of Haneda's illusion.

To them, the battle between Haneda and Lin was just a cutscene.

And Mei Terumi of Kirigakure couldn't help but look at Haneda a few more times.

Uchiha Haneda is not only a handsome Uchiha, but also a powerful Uchiha.

With the Three Magatama Sharingan, maybe he can fight against me for a few moves.

Mei Terumi couldn't help but lick her lips, and the look she gave Haneda became more subtle.

According to the competition schedule, the competitors will be allowed to rest for a quarter of an hour after the semi-finals to restore their strength and chakra.

At this time, the casino was open.

The casino was open during the break, and the hidden gamblers who seemed bored couldn't help but join in.

Without the support of intelligence, Haneda's odds continued to rise.

This means that gamblers recognize Kakashi's strength more.

And Haneda, who possesses strength beyond that of an ordinary jonin, unexpectedly lost!

Incredible!

But it makes sense, after all, Haneda only demonstrated illusions from beginning to end, while Kakashi showed hard power.

Kakashi is far superior to Haneda in terms of entertainment value and overall strength, so most viewers naturally prefer him.

…………

An Uchiha clan member walked up to the clan leader and whispered something in his ear, and the clan leader's expression became a little strange.

He said to Fugaku:

"Go to the underground casino and bet 3000 million on Haneda's victory!"

"Father, it's not a good idea for us Uchihas to go gambling, right?" Fugaku said a little embarrassedly.

With the arrogance of the Uchiha people, it was more or less a shame for Uchiha Fugaku to get involved in such things.

"The odds for betting on Haneda are now as high as 4.7 and are still rising. This is a sure-win business."

The clan leader glanced at Fugaku and saw that he was still embarrassed, and then said,

"This is also to support Haneda, Fugaku. How can the odds be so high for an Uchiha."

Hearing the support for Haneda, Fugaku automatically ignored the second half of the sentence.

He immediately took the sealed scroll containing 30 million cash and walked quickly towards the underground casino.

When they arrived at the casino, Fugaku did not forget to add 520 million of his own money, which was the money for one or two S-level tasks.

…………

When the news that Uchiha bet 3520 million on Haneda reached Danzo's ears, Danzo sneered and said:

"Uchiha Kenji is really old and confused, and he still participates in this kind of thing like a gambler!"

At this time, a Root Ninja said:

"Master Danzo, the odds for Uchiha Haneda have reached 4.93."

"4.93?!!"

Danzo couldn't help but feel excited when he thought about how Hiruzen had recently cut into his Root funding.

He ordered the Root Ninja:

"Go and bet three million against Hatake Kakashi in my name, Shimura Danzo!"

"Arrange other personnel to bet 50 million on that Uchiha brat! Remember, be separate and don't expose yourself!"

…………

Asma, who was originally going to the restroom during the game, noticed that there was a particularly lively area outside the competition venue.

He squeezed in curiously.

Asma wanted to leave with disdain until he realized that this was a casino.

But when Uchiha Haneda's name was heard, Asuma stopped again.

what? !

The odds of Brother Haneda are as high as 4.73, which is simply not taking Brother Haneda seriously! !

Asma immediately put down all his net worth, which was the money he had saved for several years, a total of 3500 million taels!

When Asma saw the odds drop, he immediately smiled with satisfaction.

No matter how Kakashi performed before, he always believed in the big brother Haneda who was at the front!

…………

When the final was about to begin, Haneda's odds finally settled at 4.13.

In the spectator seats, seeing Haneda about to leave the field, Obito grabbed Haneda's hand:

"Really, Haneda, you can't lose again!"

Hearing this, Haneda smiled and then looked at Kakashi, who happened to be looking over there as well.

The two men didn't say anything, but jumped down from the spectator seats in tacit understanding and confronted each other on both sides of the battlefield.

Suddenly, Obito's voice came again.

"Come on, Haneda! You must beat up that idiot Kakashi for me!!"

"Tell him not to be so arrogant. We Uchiha are the strongest!!"

"Heh~ The last one." Kakashi looked up and mouthed words to Obito.

But the last one didn't understand any of this, and Obito simply ignored it.

At this time, the referee came to the battlefield, put up a small red flag, and announced the start of the battle:

"Uchiha Haneda versus Hatake Kakashi, the ninja battle begins!"
