Capítulo 12: Chapter 12: Did You Think the Konoha Elder Council Only Targeted the Uchiha?

"You three bastards got drunk at the tavern, refused to pay, and even injured several people there, including the owner!

When our police unit arrived, not only did you refuse to cooperate, but you insulted us, and even had the nerve to insult our young clan head and our elder!!"

Being insulted themselves was one thing, but the clan's young head and elder getting disrespected? Any Uchiha wouldn't tolerate that.

So, in the process of the arrest, the Uchiha had used a bit of force, leading to the current situation.

"Quite bold of you, forgetting your own name after a few drinks and even daring to insult another clan's young leader and elder?" Tsunade eyed the three patients with growing displeasure.

She wasn't part of the elder council group, and didn't share their disdain for the Uchiha. She handled things by the book and wasn't about to favor the other side just because the higher-ups targeted the Uchiha.

Uh-oh.

Seeing Tsunade's expression change, the three patients, who had been carried into the hospital, immediately tried to play the victim.

"Ah, my hand's broken, it's broken, it hurts so much. The Uchiha maliciously assaulted a villager."

"Enough," Tsunade said coldly, without the slightest hint of leniency just because they were hurt. "Take them in for treatment immediately. The medical fees are on them."

"Uchiha Fugaku, correct?"

"Lady Tsunade."

Relieved that there had been no bias, Uchiha Fugaku let out a sigh. When Tsunade called his name, he hurried over.

With a stern face, Tsunade said to him, "Although the other side was out of line, you shouldn't have used such force. Once these three are treated, take them back to the police unit and deal with them according to procedure.

Also, make sure someone from your unit reports this matter to the Hokage office."

If they caused trouble, assaulted people, resisted arrest, and insulted others, they should face the consequences. Being injured didn't mean they could escape punishment.

Once they were treated, the necessary punishment would be handed out.

And the police unit needed to report to the Hokage's office. As for whether the Third Hokage would discipline the police officers, that wasn't something Tsunade was going to worry about.

"Understood."

For the Uchiha, this outcome was fair, not favoring either side. Uchiha Fugaku accepted it obediently.

"Alright, alright, everyone disperse, there's nothing more to see here."

Tsunade dealt with the matter swiftly.

If she could help it, she didn't want to get involved in these kinds of issues.

But she knew that if she didn't step in, things could escalate, and then the Uchiha would face reprimands from the higher-ups, while these villagers who insulted the Uchiha clan would also get what was coming to them.

Don't think the Uchiha are pushovers. If you cross a line, and they have their eyes on you, they can make your life miserable, even without much effort.

They might even deal with you covertly.

And without any evidence, who could prove it was the Uchiha?

The Uchiha were used to people insulting them. As the police force, they often made enemies, so they didn't pay much attention to petty insults. But insulting their young head and elder? That was crossing a line.

That was asking for trouble.

After handling this ridiculous incident, Tsunade left the hospital with Takashi.

As they walked out the hospital doors, Tsunade began to complain, "The discontent towards the Uchiha in the village is growing, and neither the Hokage office nor the council is stepping in to handle it. If this continues, it's going to lead to serious trouble."

Despite her complaints, there wasn't much Tsunade could do.

Her status was special, but this was an issue for the Hokage and the council to deal with, not something she could easily intervene in.

"To be precise, the dissatisfaction is growing towards many of the ninja clans," Takashi reminded Tsunade.

Did you think the council only targeted the Uchiha?

No, you're wrong.

Almost all the ninja clans were affected. Only the Sarutobi, Shimura, and Ino-Shika-Cho clans—those loyal to the Hokage—were spared.

"Does the Hyuga clan face this too?"

Tsunade, who rarely paid attention to these matters, was a bit surprised.

She could understand it with the Uchiha. The police force was their exclusive unit, and maintaining public order meant it was easy to clash with villagers, leading to resentment.

But the Hyuga?

"It's always been there."

Takashi shook her head, "Many villagers feel that the Hyuga are arrogant and aloof, that they look down on others. And frankly, the Hyuga are somewhat isolated and prideful."

It didn't make sense.

The Uchiha was one thing, but how did the Hyuga end up in this kind of mess?

Tsunade was puzzled.

Could it be...

On instinct, Tsunade looked towards the Hokage office building.

Maybe it was the Hokage office's doing.

"What's amusing is that the Sarutobi and Shimura clans are growing more popular in the village."

"…"

Don't play coy. Did he really think she didn't realize he was subtly criticizing the Hokage?

Tsunade wasn't an idiot.

She glared at Takashi.

"Have you found a place yet? Do you need my help?"

"I've found one. Moving in tomorrow."

Takashi chuckled, steering the conversation away.

"Good, I'll help you move some things tomorrow. Oh, hurry up, I'm starving."

"???"

Wait, you're hungry? Then go eat. Why are you following me?

Are you addicted to freeloading?

As it turned out, Tsunade really was addicted to freeloading.

Watching Konoha's princess devouring her food, Takashi thought that if she ever did a livestream of eating, no one would doubt her authenticity.

How on earth could she stuff an entire chicken leg in her mouth like that without choking?

"Why are you staring at me? Aren't you hungry?"

With a flick of her mouth, Tsunade spat out the clean chicken bone onto the table.

An entire drumstick went in, and only a bone came out—what a skill!

"Your boyfriend's gonna be really lucky," Takashi said absentmindedly as he joined in the fight for food, because if he didn't, there would be nothing left.

He could swear he had made enough for four people, yet Tsunade nearly finished it all herself.

"Kid, I suspect you're thinking impure thoughts," Tsunade said, her intuition warning her that this good-looking guy had a bit of a dirty mind.

"Nope, absolutely not. I'm complimenting you."

"Hmph! You think I'll believe that?"

"Suit yourself. Anyway, it's not like you have a boyfriend."

"…"

That one stung. Tsunade very much wanted to stab Takashi with her chopsticks.

Way to hit where it hurts.


Capítulo 13: Chapter 13: When in Doubt, Throw a Punch?

After polishing off enough food for three people, Tsunade collapsed onto the sofa with a satisfied groan. Takashi couldn't help but seriously suspect that this girl deliberately avoided eating just so she could come over and freeload, enjoying a feast every time.

Thankfully, Kushina had been buying more groceries lately. Otherwise, Tsunade's meal expenses would become a significant financial burden.

And of course, Tsunade was terrible with money, her pockets emptier than her own face after a night of gambling. Asking her for any meal money was nothing but a dream. If she didn't end up borrowing gambling money from you, you'd be lucky.

Speaking of which, they hadn't seen that little rich girl for a couple of days. What was she up to?

And just like that, speak of the devil and she appears.

Takashi had just finished tidying up the house when the little rich girl in question arrived. Kushina looked unusually down today, her entire demeanor drained, a hint of worry between her brows.

"Takashi, Tsunade-nee," Kushina greeted them, her voice even weaker than usual.

"What's going on? Who made you upset? Tell big sis and she'll go beat them up for you!"

Seeing Kushina like this, Tsunade sprang up from the sofa and hugged her comfortingly, "Did Nawaki make you mad again? Don't worry, sis will handle him. I'll make sure he doesn't dare come near you for ten days, maybe longer."

Although Nawaki liked Kushina like a little sister, boys at seven or eight could be terribly annoying.

Ever since Kushina came to Konoha, Nawaki had pulled his fair share of pranks that made her cry her eyes out.

"Really?" Kushina looked up at Tsunade, hope shining in her eyes.

"Of course! I'm your big sis Tsunade! Who dares to bully you? I'll get back at them for you."

"It's Grandma Mito."

"..."

You have to be kidding me.

Tsunade's enthusiasm vanished immediately. She let go of Kushina and flopped back onto the sofa like a salted fish, waving her hand dismissively with her back to Kushina.

"You'd better find someone else. I wouldn't dare. Your grandma would probably scold me along with you. Your big sis Tsunade's not capable of taking on that challenge."

If it had been anyone else, Tsunade might have just charged in, but if it was Uzumaki Mito who had been harsh to Kushina...

It was better to give up that thought as soon as possible. Otherwise, even Tsunade herself wouldn't escape unscathed.

"Tsunade-nee, you went back on your word." Kushina stared at her back, looking utterly pitiful. Tsunade simply pretended to sleep, ignoring everything she couldn't see or hear.

The silly way the two sisters interacted made Takashi burst out laughing.

Takashi smiled and ruffled Kushina's hair, then asked, "Kushina, what did Lady Mito do to bully you? Was it because you were being naughty and she had to spank you?"

"No way!"

Kushina shook her head vigorously, her face full of determination, "I'm always well-behaved. I never make trouble for Grandma Mito, so she would never spank me."

After saying that, Kushina frowned and sighed deeply.

"Takashi, Grandma Mito wants me to go to the Ninja Academy tomorrow, but I really don't want to go."

"That's not an option; you have to go to the Ninja Academy. It's a must." Tsunade suddenly sat up straight, looking very serious.

"Kushina, you need to understand your grandma's intentions, okay? Once you enter the Ninja Academy, you'll learn new things, make new friends, and meet classmates."

Going to the Academy, learning new skills, meeting more people, having classmates and, eventually, comrades and friends—it would help Kushina integrate better into Konoha.

After all, Uzumaki Mito wouldn't be around forever. If Kushina didn't grow attached to Konoha, it could lead to serious issues down the line.

"But what if my new classmates don't like me?" Kushina pouted.

"Hmm..."

Tsunade scratched her head, trying to remember how she had dealt with her classmates back in her own Academy days.

Oh yeah, she used her fists, didn't she?

Right, on her first day at school, she punched that annoying Jiraiya until he cried.

And then got scolded by Grandma at home.

Using fists to meet new classmates? Kushina definitely had the strength to do that, but could she fit in that way?

No, no, Kushina couldn't be that violent.

Tsunade shook her head hard, throwing those ridiculous thoughts out of her mind.

She glanced at Takashi, signaling that it was his turn to step in and help, considering he was Kushina's only friend in the village.

"Kushina, you're starting off on the wrong foot."

Unable to stand aside any longer, Takashi coughed lightly, correcting her perspective.

"Huh?" The little rich girl blinked, confused. "I am?"

"Yeah." Takashi snapped his fingers, crouching down so that he was eye-level with Kushina. "Think about it: your primary goal in going to the Academy is to learn. Everything else is secondary."

"Really?"

Kushina frowned, feeling that something was off, but on further thought, it seemed to make sense.

"..."

Tsunade had a feeling that Takashi wasn't going to say anything good.

"But what if my classmates don't like me or even try to bully me?" Kushina asked hesitantly.

Having only just arrived in Konoha, her activity was limited to the Senju compound, the market, and Takashi's place. She knew only a few people, and the thought of going to a new school, meeting unfamiliar faces, made her a bit scared.

Takashi grinned, showing a row of pearly white teeth. He placed his big hand on Kushina's head.

"Remember this, Kushina: sometimes, a fist can solve a lot of problems."

I knew it.

Tsunade facepalmed in exasperation.

Kushina's eyes lit up, wide and sparkling. "Really?"

"Of course," Takashi said. "If anyone dares to mess with you or make fun of you, just give 'em a good beating. And if any teachers or parents come looking for trouble, just tell them your sister is Tsunade! Let them take it up with Tsunade-nee. Even that nosy blonde brat can—"

"Hyuga Takashi! That's enough!"

Tsunade finally snapped.

Honestly, what kind of way was that to teach a kid?

'When in doubt, use your fists'?

Beat them senseless, then bring in someone influential to back you up? How absurd!

"Ahem!" With Tsunade losing her temper, Takashi toned it down a little, whispering to Kushina, "By the way, your sister Tsunade also made friends this way when she was in school..."

I'm out of here!

Before Tsunade's flying kick could land, Takashi, already prepared, made a swift getaway.

Left behind were Tsunade, fuming, and Kushina, her eyes wide with awe. It seemed like the little rich girl had learned something.

Could fists really solve everything?

Kushina almost got led astray, but Tsunade, still seething, took her away.

Standing at the door, Takashi winked at Kushina, making a punching gesture. Kushina giggled and nodded.

Let's hope no kid tries anything stupid tomorrow.
