Konoha, Uchiha Clan Compound.
At that moment, Xia Yu was enjoying newlywed bliss with his first-generation and second-generation wives...
At the compound entrance, Sasuke was still setting off fireworks alone, having the time of his life.
Before long, the Third Hokage arrived.
Behind him followed a group of masked Anbu Ninja.
"Oh? Lord Hokage, you're here..."
Seeing the Hokage arrive, Sasuke quickly put down his fireworks and ran toward him.
Hiruzen Sarutobi gently rubbed Sasuke's head and asked kindly, "Sasuke, where's your big brother Xia Yu?"
"Him? He's making babies!"
"Hm? Didn't I hear he was getting married?"
"Yeah, but getting married and making babies aren't things you can't do at the same time. Neither gets in the way of the other, anyway."
"Uh..."

After a moment of envy, Hiruzen Sarutobi said to Sasuke, "Sasuke, since Xia Yu is producing offspring, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to go straight in. Could you call him out for me? I have something urgent to discuss with him."
"Mm-hmm, okay." Naturally, Sasuke wouldn't refuse the Hokage's request. He turned and ran into the compound.
Before long, Sasuke led a disheveled Xia Yu over to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Lord Hokage, I didn't know you would be coming. Please forgive the poor reception," Xia Yu greeted Hiruzen Sarutobi while straightening his wrinkled clothes.
Hiruzen Sarutobi gave a quiet smile. "It's fine, Xia Yu. I can see you've been working hard. Even in broad daylight on your wedding day, you're keeping busy..."
"Time is precious~ To restore the Uchiha population to its peak as soon as possible, I'd spare no effort, even if it killed me!"
"Hehe... admirable
