At the end of Konoha Year 19, the annual audit began.
It was an important occasion for reviewing what had been accomplished over the year and how much money had been earned.
Year-end audits were always the busiest time of the year.
Yuya had also gone a whole week without coming by to bribe the three little ones.
Tsunade was furious. He'd said they would see each other every day, but he really was a big fat liar!
Orochimaru and Jiraiya didn't know what to say, either.
Yuya had instructed the manager of the Barbecue Restaurant that the three little ones only had to show their faces. They could order whatever they wanted.
