This small Ninja Village only learns the lesson when reminded with a stick every now and then to keep them well-memorized.
Even if the negotiations with the Sand Village Envoys are settled, they have no plans to leave, as they continue discussing another matter; and this item is of utmost importance to the Hidden Sand Village, concerning the survival of their entire village.
It's not that it can't be negotiated, it's just that Uchiha Yoichi is waiting for Pakura to nod. Since declaring his intentions last time, Pakura has been loitering around Konoha Village, going from here to there, spending a whole day at Ninja Paradise.
Only when Pakura agrees to join her will Uchiha Yoichi relent and allow Pakura to return with cheaper supplies under the name of Hidden Sand Hero to save the Hidden Sand Village.
Otherwise, the Hidden Sand Village faces either starvation or war, and they still need the courage to wage war without being able to deploy the One-tailed Jinchuriki on the battlefield.
Uchiha Yoichi did not rush Pakura; with such a strong-willed woman, he could only wait for her to make her own decision.
However, he has another matter that needs to be handled quickly.
Minami has no clue about the Clone Bodies, especially the ones that require such genetic fusion. She has tried for a long time but has not succeeded yet.
So, Uzumaki Minami dejectedly conveyed this issue to Uchiha Yoichi, feeling that her medical foundation was too weak. While she improved the control Talismans for the Reanimation Jutsu and the fusion of Hashirama Cells through extensive experiments, it was due to numerous trials.
In the experiments within the Dream Space, nearly a thousand test subjects died; each time one died, another was materialized, leading to just two results.
There simply can't be that many test subjects in the real world for Uzumaki Minami to perfect, especially while she still has to take care of Karin and teach students Medical Ninjutsu.
So after Uchiha Yoichi resolved the issue, he went to find Tsunade.
"You, Shy Little Ghost, truly know how to give me work. Just as the Desperate Virus shows some progress, you throw another big trouble my way."
Tsunade came out of the laboratory, hearing Uchiha Yoichi's request, and rolled her beautiful eyes at him in displeasure.
There's still Genetic Primordial Energy to research, leaving her with no time to rest.
"Princess Tsunade, only you can help me with this matter."
Uchiha Yoichi lowered his posture and pleaded, then embraced Tsunade, who had just taken off her white lab coat, revealing her beautiful figure.
"After considering everything, I think only Princess Tsunade can accomplish this."
"Even if you sweet-talk me, Shy Little Ghost, I haven't had time to drink lately."
"I'll have someone buy the finest liquor; I'll get all the good liquor from the Ninja World."
While speaking, Uchiha Yoichi started massaging Tsunade. Despite his rough technique, Tsunade closed her eyes to enjoy it.
Because it was the Shy Little Ghost giving her the massage.
However, after a moment, Tsunade felt those fiery hands start wandering all over her body.
"Shy Little Ghost, what are you doing~"
"Princess Tsunade has worked hard all day; the inside needs a massage too, shouldn't neglect one over the other...."
"You're just making excuses, hmm..."
The room soon resonated with unfamiliar sounds and their intensity was growing, if it weren't only Tsunade inside, anyone passing by would surely hear the noise.
This time, Uchiha Yoichi wholeheartedly took Tsunade to the clouds, eventually persuading her to agree and promise to use her Shadow Clone to quickly research for him.
Only then did Uchiha Yoichi leave satisfied; he had initially wanted to leave with Tsunade, but she had some matters to finish. And since Nawaki and Shizune were on missions, she didn't need to return early, sending Uchiha Yoichi away.
After leaving the lab, just as Uchiha Yoichi intended to leave Konoha Hospital and head home, Nohara Rin suddenly came out of a room and stopped him.
"Teacher Yoichi, here again seeing Lady Tsunade today?"
"Mm, some business... Rin, haven't you gone back?"
Nohara Rin shook her head and said, "I've been returning very late recently, now I'm Teacher Minami's assistant, in charge of assessing and teaching Medical Ninjutsu to current students at the Ninja Academy.... Teacher Yoichi, come in and talk."
Though it was an invitation, Nohara Rin directly pulled Uchiha Yoichi inside.
This is Nohara Rin and Uzumaki Minami's office. However, Uzumaki Minami hardly comes once a week, gradually becoming Rin's alone, but Minami's desk and chair are cleaned every day.
After locking the door, Nohara Rin revealed a sweet adolescent smile, but Uchiha Yoichi felt something was wrong and asked, "Rin, what's up?"
"Teacher Yoichi has a relationship with Lady Tsunade too, did you just do that kind of thing?"
"....."
Uchiha Yoichi fell silent, but Nohara Rin bent down before him, reaching out to undo his pants.
"Rin, wait...."
"No, obviously Teacher Yoichi liked it last time, please don't refuse me, Teacher Yoichi."
"Another day, Rin, it's getting dark...."
"No.... mm, Teacher Yoichi will be found out going home like this, I'm helping Teacher Yoichi..."
Originally trying to stop Nohara Rin's hand, he gradually placed it on her reddish-brown hair, gently stroking as before in the underground Alchemy Room.

On the seventh day of Hidden Sand's visit to Konoha, Pakura once again came to the Hokage Building.
In these seven days, she had roughly toured Konoha, apart from some hidden places, she had been everywhere; she spent most of her time in the last few days at the Security Team's bulletin board, standing there for hours daily.
