Yoruichi Rocked, Others Shocked

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya exchanged awkward glances, realizing that Yoruichi didn't seem to need their help at all.

"Wasn't this supposed to be a rescue?" Hiruzen muttered to himself. His sharp eyes narrowed. Has Yoruichi become this strong? Stronger than Tsunade? Or is it just a technique?*

Orochimaru, standing at a distance, was even more shaken. The strength Yoruichi displayed now far surpassed what he had seen just a week ago during their sparring.

Yoruichi didn't just hold his own against Tsunade; he completely dominated her. Tsunade, famed for her raw strength, was now immobilized, pinned down to the ground by Yoruichi's Wood Release jutsu.

"This… This is insane," Orochimaru whispered to himself. "Even if Sarutobi-sensei were in her place, he wouldn't suppress Tsunade this easily."

At that moment, Uzumaki Mito arrived at the scene, her aura commanding. "Hiruzen, what's going on here?"

She immediately noticed Tsunade bound by wooden dragons and frowned deeply. "Yoruichi, release Tsunade right now. What is the meaning of this?"

As soon as Mito appeared, Yoruichi deactivated the Strength of a Hundred Seal, causing the Wood Dragon technique to weaken.

Tsunade broke free in an instant.

"Bang!"

With one punch, she shattered the wooden dragon restraining her and stood up, her face red with anger.

"You little brat!" she growled, veins bulging on her forehead. "I'll kill you for this!"

Yoruichi remained calm, arms crossed. "If you could, you would've already."

Tsunade's face burned brighter as she clenched her fists.

"Ahem," Sarutobi Hiruzen stepped forward, raising a hand to stop her. "Tsunade, that's enough. You provoked him first."

Uzumaki Mito gave her a sharp glare. "Stand down, Tsunade. Go cool off somewhere else."

Grumbling, Tsunade stormed off, dragging Jiraiya by the arm. "You're coming with me!"

"Wait, Tsunade! Don't—" Jiraiya's words were cut off as Tsunade slammed him into the ground and hauled him away.

Hiruzen sighed, massaging his temples. "What a mess."

Yoruichi followed Uzumaki Mito and Kushina back to their home. Kushina was still fuming.

"Why couldn't you just let Tsunade win for once?" she snapped, glaring at him.

Yoruichi smirked. "She started it. Why should I go easy?"

"Because she's Tsunade! You made her so mad she'll probably smash something expensive again!"

Mito shook her head, a small smile tugging at her lips. "That's enough, Kushina. It's not entirely Yoruichi's fault."

Kushina crossed her arms, muttering under her breath, "Still, he's so stubborn."

Mito turned her attention back to Yoruichi. "That technique you used earlier… When did you master the Strength of a Hundred Seal?"

Kushina's eyes widened. "Wait, you know that?! How?"

Yoruichi shrugged. "Figured it out myself."

Kushina's jaw dropped. "Figured it out? That's one of the most advanced techniques! Are you kidding me?"

Mito studied Yoruichi closely, her expression unreadable. "Impressive. But don't get too cocky. Power like that comes with responsibility."

Yoruichi nodded but didn't reply.

Kushina, still baffled, poked him hard in the arm. "Seriously, how are you so annoying and so good at everything?"

Yoruichi smirked again. "Talent."

"Ugh, you're impossible!" Kushina groaned, throwing her hands in the air.

Mito chuckled softly. "That's enough bickering. Let's all get some rest. Tomorrow, I'll deal with the fallout from today's… chaos."

The group dispersed, but even as Yoruichi walked to his room, he could still feel Tsunade's rage lingering in the back of his mind. He smirked.

She'll be back!
