"Yōichi-san, it's ready. Do you think this meets your requirements?" The owner of the ninja tool shop wiped away non-existent sweat and said, "You have been waiting in my shop for almost a day, putting quite a bit of pressure on me, so I hurriedly urged the craftsmen to make what Yōichi-san wanted and sent it over."

It was a metal mask that covered the lower face, somewhat similar to Kakashi's face mask, but what Yōichi wanted was made of metal.

"Let me try it out first."

Yōichi said uncontrollably, then put the mask on his face and took out a pen and paper to write to the weapon shop owner: 'Ask me any question.'

"Ask any question. Well, Yōichi-san, are you satisfied with this mask?"

After hearing the weapon shop owner's question, Yōichi wanted to directly express his dissatisfaction, but his mouth couldn't move, so he couldn't say it.

"Perfect!"

Yōichi thought to himself satisfactorily. He should have resolved this issue earlier, without the need for deliberate control. The daily training had already exhausted him; having to control his mouth on top of that was unnecessary. It was better to simply restrain it forcefully.

Now, no one could hide secrets from him, and he didn't have to speak his mind anymore.

If he had resolved it earlier, he wouldn't have caused so much trouble.

After paying, Yōichi headed home.

The incident today, where Tsunade chased after him, would definitely be known by the higher-ups and the security team of Konoha. He would undoubtedly face interrogation.

But Yōichi was puzzled by this. It was clearly Tsunade who came looking for trouble, but even before he could say anything, Tsunade had already shown a hostile attitude.

When he returned to the clan's territory, it was already afternoon.

"Yōichi-sama?"

On his way back, Yōichi encountered Mikoto, who happened to be returning home after buying groceries. This Jonin of Konoha had become a housewife after marriage.

Yōichi nodded and took out a pre-prepared greeting note to signal Mikoto over.

"Is your throat uncomfortable, Yōichi-sama? Please take care of yourself. Fugaku often mentions you at home. After all, we are all part of the same clan."

Although Mikoto's face was very calm, Yōichi heard everything she was thinking.

[Can he not speak anymore? But what happened before? I could clearly see Yōichi-sama's naked body and his thing before, why can't I see it now?]

What exactly do you want to see, madam!?

"Madam, if there's nothing else, I'll go back now. Goodbye."

Mikoto nodded and said, "Hmm, Yōichi-sama, rest well. If you need anything, you can come find Fugaku."

[Could it be that I can only see it in our house? Or was I really just seeing things before?]

Stop fantasizing, madam. That ability has nothing to do with you at all!

After bidding farewell to Mikoto, Yōichi went straight home. He suspended today's swordsmanship training and replaced it with weighted physical training.

The Lightning Style Chakra Mode also required a strong body. The Third Raikage fought the Eight-Tails hand-to-hand, and the Fourth Raikage cut off one of the Eight-Tails' horns with his bare hands. If Yōichi could train the Lightning Style Chakra Mode to a level similar to theirs, he would definitely be more powerful than them.

As long as he could advance his Sharingan to the Three-Tomoe state, he would have a significant advantage in physical combat.

As he approached the door of his house, Yōichi suddenly saw someone standing in front of his house – it was Tsunade, who had chased him during the day.

Yōichi didn't expect Tsunade to dare to come to the Uchiha clan territory. She was quite bold indeed.

However, just as Yōichi turned around to run, Tsunade suddenly spoke, "Kid, don't run, I'm not going to attack you!"

This statement made Yōichi halt his movement, turned around, and looked at her suspiciously. Then, after a moment of thought, he took out pen and paper and wrote, "Tsunade-sama, I was wrong before. I hope you can forgive me. But what did you come to me for?"

After seeing what was written on the paper, Tsunade pretended to be magnanimous and said, "Forget it, I'm not going to argue with a kid. But why are you wearing a mask and not speaking?"

[Hmph, wait and see, evil Uchiha brat, one day you'll fall into my hands! But before that, I need to figure out if you're involved in that matter]

Alright, alright, forgive me for my words, and then jot it down in your little notebook, right?

Yōichi rolled his eyes internally. No matter how strong a woman was, she was still a woman. But if Tsunade didn't attack, he could tolerate it, especially now that his abilities were restrained.

It wasn't convenient to talk outside, so after inviting Tsunade into the house, Yōichi wrote in response, "There was an accident, so I can only communicate in this way. Tsunade-sama, feel free to ask if you have anything."

"Do you know the Lightning Style Chakra Mode?"

Tsunade asked in a certain tone, "The lightning aura surrounding you just now can only be achieved with the Lightning Style Chakra Mode. It's a secret ninjutsu created by the Second Raikage. How did you learn it?"

"Because of an accident, I obtained it during a mission."

"Never mind, it doesn't concern me anyway. The old man already knows, and it's unlikely for a bloodline clan to have spies. I'm here to ask you something else."

[Is my transformation into a wild boar related to this Uchiha brat? I did hear him mention powers back then, what did that power mean..]

After hearing Tsunade's thoughts, Yōichi was startled.

He figured it out. That wild boar that day was Tsunade, and his ability at that time happened to be [Sneeze Transformation].

Tsunade's expression suddenly changed, and she stared at Yōichi very seriously, asking, "Do you know of an ability that can turn people into animals?"

"I'm not sure. It's similar to transformation jutsu, but if there's a jutsu that can turn others into animals, wouldn't it be invincible? It's better to ask the Third Hokage. He's the ninja arts expert of Konoha."

Yōichi wrote this calmly, then handed it to Tsunade. In terms of performance or pretending to be clueless, he was still somewhat confident.

After seeing Yōichi's response, Tsunade also felt suspicious, but she couldn't tell anything from Yōichi's expression just now.

If she wanted to know whether this Uchiha brat was lying, the best way would be to bring him to the interrogation department. However, based on her suspicion and the experience of turning into a wild boar, she couldn't possibly bring Yōichi to the interrogation department.

"Well, do you have any special abilities?"

"Sharingan, a bloodline limit unique to the Uchiha clan!"

"Tsk!"

Tsunade saw that she couldn't get any useful information from Yōichi and felt that this kid was too slippery. But she had just been scolded by the Third Hokage, and this was still the Uchiha clan territory.

She couldn't attack, and Tsunade felt that there was no point in asking further.

"Alright, I'm leaving!"

[Does this brat really not know? What should I do next? It's been so long and there's been no news, who could have done it? Or was it really just an illusion?]

[Forget it, I'll ask the old man to help me investigate. I'll go gamble a bit first.]
