The moment they saw Yeyu, everyone in the private room fell silent.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
After staring blankly for a few seconds, everyone immediately stood up.
"Lord Hokage, Yeyu."
Some were excited, while others were restrained.
Yeyu stood beside Sasuke, his expression calm.
"Quite a crowd."
With that, he walked inside.
Tsunade, Shizune, Kakashi, Neji, Sakura, Naruto, Hinata, Shikamaru, Ino, Choji, Kiba Inuzuka, Shino, Tenten, and Rock Lee were all in the private room.

Every one of them was either Yeyu's classmate or friend.
He entered the room and sat beside Tsunade.
Tsunade looked at Yeyu with a smile but said nothing.

After Sasuke came in, he walked over to Sakura and sat between her and Kakashi.
Kakashi smiled and made room for Sasuke.
"I didn't expect Sasuke to actually get you
