Naruto reappeared in a puff of smoke at the Hokage's office using the summoning jutsu by the toad, Tsunade was already waiting for her, anticipating her return.

Before Tsunade had a chance to speak, Naruto cut her off,

"Why did you call me back so suddenly, Baa-Chan?" Naruto exclaimed; her voice tinged with annoyance. "You could have at least given me some warning!"

"Calm down, brat," she said. "The situation in the Land of Waves is urgent. We need to act quickly to prevent any further incidents."

Naruto inhaled deeply, steadying herself. "You are scaring me now, have you investigated the villager?

Tsunade nodded. "Yes, that's how we found out about their evil schemes." She then stood up, signalling Naruto to come along. "Come with me; we need to discuss something at headquarters."

Upon arriving at a secure briefing room, they encountered Inoichi Yamanaka, who was deeply engaged with his analysis team.

"Inoichi, brief us on what you've discovered," Tsunade instructed.

Inoichi nodded and began laying out several detailed sketches on the table. "Tsunade-Sama, we've extracted crucial information from the villager's memories. His name is Izuna. These sketches depict the members of the Akatsuki based on his descriptions".

Naruto studied the sketches carefully, each face revealing the malevolence of the individuals they were up against. "This is... incredible," she murmured.

Then she turned to Tsunade, a question forming in her mind. "Baa-Chan, what about the scroll I sent?

Tsunade's expression turned serious. "We're still looking into it. Shikamaru has been put in charge of deciphering and analyzing the code".

Naruto nodded, understanding the complexity of the task. "Shikamaru's the best person for the job. I bet he'll figure it out."

Meanwhile, back in the Land of Waves, Sasuke, disguised as Naruto, sat on the bed and took a moment to process everything that had just happened. He glanced around the room, making sure no one was nearby before letting out a deep sigh.

"Great, now I'm stuck playing Naruto," Sasuke muttered to himself, shaking his head.

Just then, someone knocked on the door. Sasuke tensed up, quickly putting on his best Naruto grin as he went to open it. Standing there was Inari, looking up at him with wide, curious eyes.

"Hey, Naruto!" Inari called out, "You said you'd be back in a minute."

Sasuke blinked, caught off guard by the unexpected greeting. "Uh, yeah, sorry about that, Inari. I got a bit... sidetracked," he said, scratching the back of his head in an attempt to mimic Naruto's usual mannerisms.

Inari didn't seem to notice anything amiss and continued, "Come, let's go play," tugging Sasuke's hand, his voice full of excitement.

Sasuke inwardly groaned but maintained his smile. "Sure thing, Inari. Let's go," he replied.

As they headed downstairs, he heard Tazuna calling out, "Sasuke-San!"

 Sasuke replied, "Yes?" in Naruto's voice. He quickly closed his mouth, realizing his mistake.

Tazuna looked puzzled for a moment but then laughed. "Naruto-Chan, you sure are acting strange today."

Sasuke forced a laugh, rubbing the back of his head. "Uh, yeah, just a bit tired, I guess. And Sasuke is resting upstairs" 'How does Naruto handle this much energy all the time?', he wondered.
