The matter in the Land of Wind had come to a temporary end. He had been away from Konoha for a long time and needed to return.
The desert was covered more in frost, but by the time he reached the Land of Fire, it was blanketed in snow. The weather was growing colder and colder. Yuu raced through the biting wind and returned to Konoha in the shortest time possible.
The Uchiha Clan had made its own arrangements, so no major trouble had arisen. However, he now faced a troublesome issue. Dealing with the power struggles in the Land of Wind had delayed him for too long, causing documents to pile up in the hospital office.

With New Year's Day approaching, Tsunade had ended her travels and returned to the village to spend the holiday with her younger brother.
Uchiha Yuu's departure from the village for a mission had caused those documents to fall into Tsunade's hands again, leading to today's scene.

"Now that Lady Tsunade is back, she can help me process the documents."
It seemed Tsunade had intended to wait for him to return and handle them.
"What a bastard kid!"
Just as Tsunade was about to teach
