"I knew it!!"

"Hyuga Shigeru!! Look at the good things you did!!"

The angry Tsunade-hime rushed to the lounge and kicked open the door:

"Kushina was laughed at by her classmates and then beat her classmate so hard that his front teeth were knocked out. The old man asked me to deal with it. How do you want me to handle it?"

"There is still a lot of trouble waiting for me at the medical department. If you're not going to help, at least don't cause me more problems!"

Shigeru, who was changing clothes in the lounge, calmly put on his white coat and then asked:

"On the first day of school, Kushina was laughed at by her classmates and fought back. Is that wrong?"

You are allowed to mock her, but she's not allowed to hit back? Is that how it works?

It's not like Shigeru is exaggerating. In the entire Konoha school, only Naoki could compare with Kushina in terms of background. Everyone else had to take a step back, even the children from prominent clans.

With such a strong background, why be afraid?

What bothered Shigeru the most was that despite Kushina's standing, she had still been frequently bullied when she was younger.

She endured the ridicule until she couldn't anymore, and when she fought back, there was always someone retaliating. He really couldn't understand how they had the nerve.

It's ridiculous.

"..."

Tsunade's blood pressure spiked in anger. "She also threatened the teacher, saying her sister is Tsunade! The teacher didn't dare touch her at all."

"Well, she's right, isn't she? You are her sister." Shigeru spread his hands. "When things are fine, she can call you sister, but when trouble comes, she's not allowed to?"

"What the hell..."

Tsunade felt as if she might explode.

"Go to the ninja school right away and deal with this."

"If you caused it, you handle it."

Tsunade's frustration was reaching its peak.

The hospital was busy enough, but the medical department was a nightmare because of ongoing reforms. Tsunade barely had time for anything else.

"No, Kushina's not my sister."

Shigeru quickly rejected the job.

It's not that he didn't want to help Kushina, but with something like this, if he intervened, people wouldn't let it go, even if it was on behalf of Tsunade.

You can't just threaten other people's parents.

Their child was beaten by Kushina, and when they came to complain, they'd get beaten too?

"If you don't go, why did you teach her to use her fists?"

Tsunade was ready to punch someone.

"And why should she wait around to be bullied?" Shigeru asked, confused.

What kind of logic is that? You really think that if Kushina just stands there and smiles, everyone will accept her?

To you, kids fighting might seem trivial, but not to others.

Kushina was bullied, fought back, and now those who mocked her were upset and calling for backup.

"Tsunade-sama, Shigeru-kun, there's a patient waiting..."

A nurse appeared at the door of the lounge.

Shigeru immediately walked out. "I'm on it! This one's mine, nobody can take it!"

Deal with school politics? No way. This job needed Tsunade herself to handle it. Only she could truly resolve it with authority.

Glaring at Shigeru's retreating back, Tsunade angrily tossed a pile of documents on the table, then stormed off to the ninja school.

"Who are the parents of this child? I want a serious talk. What did my son do to deserve such treatment?"

Honda's father had stormed into the school, furious that his son had been beaten and demanding an explanation from the teacher.

"Please calm down, sir. It's not entirely Kushina's fault," Sarutobi Isamu said, returning from the hospital with a weary expression.

Kushina refused to apologize and was now standing there with her head held high, unyielding. She remembered Shigeru's words: "Sometimes the best way to deal with bullies is a good punch."

Seeing Kushina's defiance, Sarutobi Isamu felt defeated. Why did this disaster have to happen in his class?

"Apologize, Kushina," he pleaded.

"I won't," she said flatly.

Sarutobi Isamu wanted to disappear. His year-end bonus was doomed.

"Look, see how disrespectful she is?" Honda's father fumed.

Before Sarutobi could respond, the door slammed open, and Tsunade stormed in.

Everyone in the room froze.

Who else could walk in with that level of authority and make an entrance like that?

"Tsunade-sama, why are you here?" Sarutobi asked nervously.

"My sister was bullied on her first day of school. You think I wouldn't come to sort this out?" Tsunade said coldly.

Explain?

Sarutobi Isamu wanted to say something, but Tsunade continued. "You were the one who said my sister was rude, right?"

Tsunade fixed her gaze on Honda's father, eyes flashing dangerously.

"No, no, it's a misunderstanding..."

Everyone in the room was struck dumb. Tsunade-hime, the Princess of Konoha, was legendary, and no one wanted to cross her.

"My son actually bullied Tsunade-hime's sister?" Honda's father thought to himself, his heart sinking. His son was going to pay for this.

Tsunade's sharp gaze didn't waver. "Your son was beaten. Don't you want an explanation?"

"No, no," Honda's father stammered nervously. "My son misbehaved. I'll discipline him properly, Tsunade-hime. I promise this won't happen again."

"Good," Tsunade said, her tone chilling. "I thought I'd have to get my brother to pay a visit to the classroom, but it seems you've got the message."

Sarutobi Isamu watched the entire scene with an exhausted sigh. Tsunade hadn't just taken control of the situation; she'd completely defused it. Now, no one dared to protest.
