Kapitel 17: Chapter 17
When Tsunade arrived at the Hokage's office, she found not only the Hokage present but also Uchiha Fugaku.
Seeing the head of the Uchiha clan, Tsunade couldn't help but inwardly scoff. She felt that the old man was really poking his nose into everything.
"Tsunade, you know why I called you here, don't you? Why did you confront Yoichi in the village just now?" the Hokage said to Tsunade with a serious expression. He had just lightly reprimanded Fugaku for intervening against a fellow villager, but then his own student went and confronted Yoichi.
One of the Sannin chasing an Uchiha around the entire village, almost running into the clans territory?
When the Hokage heard this news, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the crystal ball to the ground.
If the ANBU Black Ops could receive information, then so could the Guard Unit. In the eyes of Hiruzen, Tsunade was too impulsive; she completely ignored her own identity.
"Tsunade-sama, if there's anything Yoichi did to offend you, I will make sure Yoichi comes to apologize to you," Fugaku spoke up. His words made Tsunade feel somewhat embarrassed.
Since the other party took the initiative to apologize, and it was Yoichi who offended her, Tsunade couldn't just dismiss Fugaku's offer.
"It's nothing to do with you, Uchiha. This is a personal matter between me and that little brat!"
Afterwards, Tsunade clicked her tongue and said to Hiruzen, "Old man, don't make a big deal out of it. I've already discussed this with you before. As for today, it was indeed my impulsiveness, but it was also that little brat's nonsense that made me act rashly."
With that said, Tsunade left directly.
Her departure left Hiruzen feeling somewhat embarrassed. Among the three students, Tsunade had the worst temper; sometimes when she got anxious, she would even show disrespect to him at the Jonin meetings.
However, this situation was known to all Jonin in Konoha, so Fugaku pretended not to see it either.
"Fugaku, Tsunade did indeed talk to me about it before, but I was a bit busy at the time, so I forgot," Hiruzen explained to Fugaku about Yoichi's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
Activating cells with Lightning Release chakra to enhance physical speed is quite common, but the Lightning Release Chakra Mode is a secret technique of the Cloud Village.
After hearing this, Fugaku frowned slightly and thought for a moment before saying to Hiruzen, "Hokage-sama, Yoichi has been studying the second nature transformation of chakra on his own recently. He has already learned cell activation, so it should be a misunderstanding regarding Lightning Release Chakra Mode."
Yoichi's Sharingan wouldn't lie, and his life in Konoha could be traced back; there was no way he was a spy from the Cloud Village.
Even if he did master Lightning Release Chakra Mode, it could have been a coincidence.
Fugaku remembered Yoichi's previous mission, where he encountered an elite squad of Cloud ninjas. Out of the four ninjas in his team, he was the only one who survived and even brought back information about the Cloud's activities.
If Yoichi did have the opportunity to learn Lightning Release Chakra Mode, it would have been during that mission.
"Well, I also believe that Yoichi is not a spy. This matter may indeed be a coincidence. Fugaku, I'll leave the matter with Yoichi to you for communication, and I'll deal with Tsunade on this side," Hiruzen said with a gentle smile.
Fugaku nodded and said, "I understand, Hokage-sama."

"This crazy woman, shouldn't she be immersed in sorrow and gambling right now? Why does she look at me as if I'm her enemy the moment she sees me?"
After returning home, Yoichi relaxed a bit. This was the Uchiha clan's territory; even if Tsunade was arrogant, she couldn't barge into the clan's territory.
As for just now, he didn't have the chance to return home because the Uchiha territory wasn't welcoming to outsiders. So, after asking Kakashi to be his kenjutsu sparring partner, he trained in the forest on the outskirts of the village.
"There was quite a commotion in the village just now. There might be ANBU coming soon. I can't afford to be questioned in this state."
"This ability to eavesdrop honestly must be treated. If I keep talking, the first one to be harmed will be me."
Yoichi thought of several methods to limit this ability and decided to give them a try.
After using it so many times, Yoichi was quite familiar with this psychic power. While its abilities and rules were consistent, they were not impossible to restrict.
Yoichi grabbed pen and paper, then left his home to find someone to test the ability on.
After wandering around the clan for a while, Yoichi suddenly saw familiar faces: Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin.
"Yoichi-senpai!"
Obito saw Yoichi and waved to him, then walked over with Rin.
Yoichi had no good feelings towards Obito.
Uchiha already tended to be a bit extreme, and Obito was among the most extreme, practically bipolar.
But since he happened to encounter them, Yoichi decided to test on them.
Click!~
Yoichi directly detached his jaw, then walked up to Obito and Rin and wrote a question on the paper: "Did Kakashi go back?"
"He already went back. Damn it, I was planning to challenge him. Looks like he knows I've gotten stronger and is afraid of losing to me, so he doesn't dare to duel!"
Speaking of Kakashi, Obito seemed to have endless things to say. But thinking of what happened just now, his enthusiasm about Kakashi was suppressed by curiosity.
"Senpai, did you just escape from Tsunade, one of the Sannin? Why was she chasing you? And she seemed quite angry."
After hearing Obito's question, Yoichi instinctively wanted to answer, but he couldn't because his jaw was detached and he couldn't speak.
"Alright, there's a solution!"
Detaching his jaw was just a crude method. There were many ways to prevent speaking, and Yoichi could even have a half-face mask made by the ninja tool shop specifically to suppress speech.
"Senpai?"
"It's none of your business, don't ask too much."
After writing this on the paper, Yoichi turned and walked towards the ninja tool shop. He needed to place an urgent order, the kind that would be needed by tomorrow.
As he headed to the tool shop, he also reattached his jaw. He had learned some simple first aid techniques from a teammate before, so he could detach and reattach his jaw by himself.
It was just a bit painful.
This thing couldn't be delayed. Before getting the mask to suppress speech, Yoichi planned to stay at the tool shop.
