"Alright, get some good rest."
Looking at Hinata, who had turned into a steaming mess, Aoba smiled and gently rubbed her hair.
Then he looked at Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Ayako, "Uncle Hiashi, Aunt Ayako, I'll be heading off now."
"Mhm, come visit often when you have time."
Hyuga Hiashi didn't really feel like talking, while Hyuga Ayako was more welcoming.
Aoba was already used to it.
After giving Hanabi's cheek one last pinch, he used Flying Thunder God.
After Aoba left, Hyuga Hiashi looked at Hinata and hesitated a bit before speaking.
"Hinata, right now… do you want to go rest for a while first?"
Although he was very curious about the Tenseigan's abilities, Aoba had just told her to rest more. Thinking about what might have happened last night, he couldn't very well force her.
Hinata, who had just been in a temporary mental shutdown because of Aoba's words, came back to her senses when she heard Hiashi.
She glanced at her younger sister in her arms, whose confused expression made her look a bit adorably dazed, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
Good thing Aoba had spoken quietly just now, and she hadn't told Hanabi the truth, or she might as well move to the moon to live.
"Phew—"
After taking a deep breath and calming herself a little, Hinata looked at her father, "No need, Father. I'll first show you some of the Tenseigan's abilities."
She could naturally tell what Hyuga Hiashi was thinking, and with the Tenseigan restoring her body, she really didn't feel any issues.
Taking leave today was mainly to explain the Tenseigan to her family.
"Alright then, but don't push yourself."
After thinking it over, Hyuga Hiashi nodded.
"Mhm. But let's change locations first, otherwise it might damage the house later…"
Hinata still wasn't very proficient with many of the Tenseigan's abilities.
And she hadn't expected that the Byakugan, which leaned toward support, would become so destructive after evolving.

[Hokage Buildingm
Inside the Hokage's office, because he had been delayed a bit at the Hyuga clan, it wasn't early when Aoba arrived.
What surprised him, however, was that Kurama Yakumo was currently sleeping on the sofa.
Because Aoba occasionally played some "little games" with Shizune on the sofa, the office sofa was custom-made. It was perfectly suitable for sleeping, even comparable to a bed at home.
But the question was, why was Yakumo sleeping here?
At the moment, Yakumo was only wearing a white, cinched-waist pleated dress. The hem reached down to about her calves, but because of her sleeping posture, it had rolled up above her knees.
And Yakumo had always had good sleeping habits. Not only had she taken off her shoes, but her pair of white long socks had also been removed and placed to the side.
So her long, fair legs, almost dazzling like a work of art, were just openly displayed in front of Aoba.
Not to mention those smooth, rounded…
"Shizune-nee, what's going on with Yakumo?"
Aoba looked at her sleeping form, pressed his lips together, and could only ask Shizune, who was working nearby.
Shizune stopped what she was doing, looked up, and explained helplessly, "What else could it be? She missed you so much last night that she couldn't sleep, then came early this morning to find you. You weren't here, so she waited and waited, and eventually fell asleep."
"Ah… well…"
Aoba couldn't help but feel both amused and helpless.
But seeing the peaceful smile on Kurama Yakumo's face, he didn't want to disturb her, so he simply let her continue sleeping.
He walked over to the desk and began looking through the documents on it.
After spending today with Yakumo, he'd probably be busy for a while.
"Shizune-nee?"
"Mhm?"
"Help me arrange a venue for the Five Kage Summit over the next couple of days."
"Isn't the meeting room in the Hokage building fine?"
Shizune looked at him in confusion.
Wasn't this so-called Five Kage Summit just a formality? Everything had already been discussed.
When the time came, they could just chat casually in the meeting room and sign the documents.
"Well, since it's the last Five Kage Summit, it should be a bit more special."
Aoba got up and leaned close to Shizune's ear, whispering instructions that only the two of them could hear, "When the time comes, arrange it like this…"
"..."
The more Shizune listened, the more speechless she became. Her expression turned strange.
'What kind of Five Kage Summit is this? Isn't this just your harem?'
"Then what about the Kazekage?"
"It's fine. For Gaara, we can have Temari come instead. She understands Konoha's current situation and the state of the ninja world better than Gaara. She can pass on the meeting content afterward."
Aoba said this with a completely serious face.
"..."
'So this is the real reason you're still holding this Five Kage Summit even though everyone already agreed, right?'
Shizune couldn't help but rub her forehead, at a loss for words.
Seeing her like this, Aoba blinked, then leaned close to her ear again and said, "As my personal secretary, Shizune-nee, you'll definitely have to accompany me to attend."
"..."
Hearing that, a faint blush inevitably rose on Shizune's cheeks. She couldn't help but reach out and pinch his face.
"I'm not interested in attending your Five Kage Summit…"
"Then I'll go ask Konan—ugh!"
Feeling Shizune's grip tighten, Aoba quickly changed his tone, "That's definitely not happening. This kind of thing is more reliable if it's handled by you, Shizune-nee."
"Mhm, I'll arrange it when the time comes."
Shizune agreed with a reddened face.
After all, it was just finding a venue for the Five Kage Summit. That wasn't difficult…
