Hyuga Sho's schedule was arranged on the spot.
During this period, Hiruzen Sarutobi was more than happy to see him train under Tsunade.
Because doing so meant that Hyuga Sho would have Tsunade backing him.
Tsunade was extremely protective of her people.
Even if they weren't her disciples and were merely acquaintances, she would never go easy when it was time to beat someone up.
However, before beginning his training, he first needed to return to his clan and take a look around.
Hyuga Sho also planned to take it slow and wait a few days before submitting his application to join the "Interrogation and Torture Department" to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Three days later.
Good news came from the front lines.
Orochimaru led the Konoha Ninja forces in launching a full-scale counterattack.

Kirigakure had no way to train an excellent Three-Tails Jinchuriki in such a short time.
The same went for the other side.

Overall.
Konoha had already achieved a fundamental victory in this war against Kirigakure.
What remained... was just insignificant skirmishing that posed no threat.
Precisely because the battle situation had stabilized.
Orochimaru returned in glory.
The gloom on his face from being chased and hacked at by
