After Kazuki left.

Hiashi was silent for a moment, then glanced at his daughter and asked, "So, the Uchiha clan members aren't so scary after all, right?"

Hinata hesitated before weakly replying, "I feel like Senior is a very good person."

After all, he spoke up for her, saving her from her father's reprimand, and even encouraged her before leaving. Such encouragement was rare for Hinata, making her very happy and touched. Her family always had strict demands on her.

"Really?" Hiashi pondered and nodded, "Let's go. I hope you can overcome your weaknesses and remember your promise. Next time, make sure to give yourself a chance to show your progress."

"Yes, Father. I won't disappoint you."

"Good."

Hiashi responded perfunctorily and walked towards the door. If he could, he would love to say, like Fugaku, "That's my daughter." But he didn't have the chance because Hinata always disappointed him.

Kazuki, unsure if Tsunade had left, bought some food on his way back, so a certain lazy woman wouldn't starve.

"Is there any food?" Kazuki opened the door to see Tsunade, looking disheveled, sprawled on the sofa.

"..."

'Good thing I planned ahead.'

Kazuki put down the food and curiously asked, "Didn't you wash your clothes while you were washing up last night?"

He couldn't believe that the esteemed Princess of Konoha's clothes were already emitting a strange smell, more unkempt than many men. Maybe Jiraiya liked Tsunade for this?

"No, I'll do it tonight," Tsunade said, focusing on the food, ignoring her clothes.

After eating and drinking, Tsunade patted her hands in satisfaction. "I'm full. I have some matters to attend to."

"Wait, are you saying you'll come back?" Kazuki's eyes widened. Are you treating my house like a hotel?

"Of course," Tsunade said matter-of-factly. "You brought me back. My place is uninhabitable, Shizune isn't back, and I have no money. Where else would I stay?"

"I could give you..." Kazuki started to say he could give her money to leave, but Tsunade had already disappeared.

Great, with things unsettled, his house had gained another troublesome guest. At least Jiraiya and the others should be back today. Once Shizune returned, Tsunade shouldn't continue staying at his place. Thinking this, Kazuki felt more balanced.

He began cleaning up the mess left by Tsunade. Having her clean up would be harder than killing her. This kind of woman hadn't married yet, and it was understandable why—who could put up with her?

Muttering to himself, Kazuki started washing dishes and cleaning.

Tsunade went out for a stroll. Meanwhile, Jiraiya returned with Shizune and Itachi, dusty from travel. With Kazuki and Tsunade not returning, Jiraiya hoped they were back in Konoha; otherwise, he couldn't explain to the Third Hokage.

"You two find a place to rest. I'll see the old man. Hopefully, he won't faint from Tsunade's debts," Jiraiya said, then left.

Shizune felt lost. She hadn't been in the village for years, and with no one at home, she didn't know where to go, much like Tsunade.

"Is there something troubling you, Senior?" Itachi, perceptive as always, noticed Shizune's dilemma.

"Well..." Shizune, feeling resigned, said, "I don't know where to go, and I don't know if Lady Tsunade has returned to the village."

Itachi was at a loss. Leaving Shizune alone didn't feel right, but he had to report to the police department. He couldn't take her there.

"How about I treat you to a meal, and then we can check at the captain's house?" Itachi suggested after some thought.

"Sure, I'm hungry anyway. Let's check Kazuki's house first," Shizune agreed, following Itachi's lead.

As they walked to the Uchiha district, Shizune noticed the surroundings and said in disbelief, "I didn't expect your clan's area to have moved from the village center to the outskirts."

Itachi: "..."

'Is your information a bit outdated, Senior?' That happened years ago. He didn't want to discuss the relocation, especially since it involved criticism of his father.

Soon, they reached the Uchiha district and knocked on Kazuki's door.

"Just come in," Kazuki, mopping the floor, called out.

The door opened, and the shadows on the floor caught Kazuki's attention. It was Itachi and Shizune.

"Why did you bring her too?" Kazuki asked. Tsunade was already a freeloader; now Shizune too?

Shizune's eyes lit up. She caught the key part of Kazuki's words. "Kazuki, are you saying Lady Tsunade is here?"

This was great. Shizune had been worried Tsunade hadn't returned to Konoha. Now she could relax.

"..."

Thinking of Tsunade, Kazuki complained, "She left a while ago. She said she had no place to go, so she stayed here last night, ate my food, and made a mess. She doesn't even clean up. It's my first time encountering such a messy woman."

"Hehe, hehe..." Shizune's awkward laughter barely hid her embarrassment. Having lived with Tsunade for years, she knew Tsunade's hygiene habits were terrible. Especially with Shizune as her assistant, Tsunade had become even more careless.

Seeing the state of things, it was clear how lazy Tsunade had become.
