Goddess of Ice; Reborn as Naruto's twin sister

Chapter 294 - The Bad Day Of A Normal Bartender Part 2



Cold sweat was flowing down Batenda's back like a river while Gaara was staring him down and waiting for him to serve "the drinks". Although he would rather not do so, he pushed down his apprehension and asked Gaara a question.

"K-Kazekage-sama, w-what kind of drink would you like to have."

Gaara continued staring him down while there was clear confusion in his eyes. He had no clue what kind of drink he wanted. After a few more moments of staring, he averted his gaze from Batenda and looked at Tsunade instead.

"What kind of drink do I want?"

A smug look appeared on Tsunade's face as she lifted her hand and smacked it on the counter, leaving a hand-sized dent in the process.

"Isn't that obvious!? We take the strongest we can get!"

Batenda looked at the fresh dent on his counter in irritation but didn't say anything about it. One of his walls already had a human-shaped hole, so a little dent was no big deal..

Yuna saw the damage Tsunade just caused and couldn't help but chuckle in amusement as she got a great idea.

"Yo, Tsunade, how about you sign that handprint. Not everyone can claim that they have a signed handprint of the Hokage in their bar, so we might get a discount in exchange for signing it."

Batenda almost spat out blood in anger when he heard Yuna's suggestion. First, a bunch of big-shots demolishes his bar, and next, they even want a discount for it; wasn't that a little too shameless!?

Meanwhile, Tsunade's eyes shone with excitement, and moments later, her gaze landed on Batenda, making him flinch.

"Is that true? Can we get a discount if I sign my handprint?"

Batenda coughed a little and wiped away the blood that trickled out of the corner of his mouth while another grimace-like smile appeared on his face.

"O-Of course, it would be my honor to have the Hokage's signed handprint in my b..."

*BANG*

A loud noise echoed through the bar while Gaara's hand sank about half a meter into the counter, almost causing Batenda to die from a combination of shock and anger.

"I will also sign mine, so it should become even *hic* cheaper."

Batenda saw out of the corner of his eyes that Yuna was currently lifting one of her hands, so he quickly started speaking before his counter was completely annihilated.

"Yesyesyes, in fact, if Kazekage-sama signs it, all of you can drink for free!"

Batenda sighed in relief when Yuna lowered her hand. The five people in front of him were only here for a few minutes, but his bar had already taken quite some damage. Despite that, he gritted his teeth and looked at the remaining three people who hadn't ordered yet. It's not like he couldn't serve them after all.

"Well, what can I get for you three?"

Yuna had to admit that she was pretty impressed by the guts the person in front of her displayed. Despite his shop getting torn down in front of him, he somehow managed to still have a professional attitude towards her group. Of course, what Yuna didn't know was that she had already given him enough money to buy another bar. She noticed the flash of greed in his eyes and how he suppressed it, but that didn't mean she knew how much she actually gave him.

So, with a casual gesture, Yuna pointed at Tsunade and started speaking.

"I will take the same as her, but make it a big one; I have to catch up to those two, after all."

"Oh? I wasn't expecting you to drink Yuna. In that case, I guess I shouldn't be falling behind either. I will take the same."

"Eh? Seriously?"

After Yuna, Mei started speaking and happily started ordering the same as Yuna. It has been a long time since she had enough free time to enjoy herself like this, so she didn't mind getting drunk.

After Mei, Hinata started speaking with apparent disbelief in her voice. She never had drunk alcohol, so she wasn't used to it in the slightest. She wasn't sure if she should order the same as everybody else or get something milder.

After pondering the situation for a short moment, she simply shrugged her shoulders and ordered the same as well. It's not like she had to drink it if she didn't like it after all.

"I will take the same, as well."

Batenda nodded his head in acknowledgment and took out a bottle with a skull drawn on it, causing Hinata to regret her decision a little.

He took out five small glasses, poured the clear liquid into them, and placed the five glasses in front of the five people.

The moment Gaara received his glass, he started staring at it like it was his worst enemy, which almost resulted in Batenda cursing out loud. He had no idea what the problem was, but by now, he was certain that the drunk Gaara was more dangerous for his shop than the sober Yuna. Although Yuna's actions caused a lot of damage, they were clearly controlled and done with purpose, while Gaara's could possibly destroy his bar at any moment because of some random idea he got. As for a drunk Yuna, he didn't dare think about it.

"W-What might be the problem, Kazekage-sama."

"*Hic* It's too small."

"That's what she said."

Everyone glanced at Yuna, who said the second part, before ignoring her.

*BANG*

Another loud sound echoed through the bar as Tsunade created a second handprint on top of the counter.

"THAT'S RIGHT; IT'S TOO SMALL!!! GIVE US THE BOTTLE!!! NO, GIVE EACH ONE OF US ONE BOTTLE!!!"

Batenda, who was slightly numb by now and didn't even react to Tsuande causing some more damage, simply nodded his head and took out five bottles, placing them in front of the five people.

"Please enjoy."

Meanwhile, Hinata had no idea what she was supposed to do with the dangerous-looking bottle in front of her.

'W-Will this really be fi...?'

Before she could finish her thoughts, Tsunade picked up the bottle, opened it, and took a big gulp from it.

"PFHA, THAT'S THE GOOD STUFF!!!"

'Somehow, I don't think this will be fine'
