Jiro concluded his mini-report on Duy's techniques after writing it all down in his notebook about techniques to be aware of. Jiro wanted to know more about the technique especially how it worked chakra wise, but the Uchiha were not that friendly with the Hyuuga so he had to end his research on the technique for now as further research would require the help of a sensor of Hyuuga.

Sarutobi was walking with his wife and child when multiple Uchiha with crazed looks in their eyes stopped in front of him. The crowd of Uchiha stared with penetrating glares at the Hokage. Several anbu lept down quietly, forming a loose circle in case things got messy. One Uchiha woman walked with confidence out from the crowd and went up in front of Biwako. She cleared her throat, then suddenly shouted to Sarutobi out of the blue.

"Hokage-sama, are you gay?!"

Even though it was a question, the lady in question shouted as if it was an accusation. The rest of the crowd quickly answered her question.

"Hokage-sama is gay!"

The anbu scattered in response to the crowd as they quickly tried to inform their friends of the news. Civilian fujoshis who had also been watching the crowd or following quickly scattered rushing to inform their friends that Sarutobi x Shimura could actually happen. The Uchiha were still in place and now completely glaring at the hokage.

Sarutobi looked to his side for his wife's aide, but she was suddenly on the side of the Uchiha and also glaring at him as if asking: 'What is the meaning of this!' Sarutobi's first born chose the worst timing to learn his first word. He added onto the atmosphere of accusation as he also shouted: "Gay!"

Sarutobi was alone on his side and looking utterly baffled as to what was happening to him. One minute ago, he was walking with leisure. The next minute, he was accused of being gay by the clansmen of one of his students. As Sarutobi was trying to figure out what was happening, the lady who had accused him stepped forward again with the intention to explain what had happened earlier.

"Jiro-sama was recently invovoled in a spar between him and a young friend of Fugaku. It was only natural that Jiro-sama would win, but Jiro-sama then grabbed the young boy named Duy by his chin and turned his face towards him."

The lady took a breath in and continued her story, but something was off about her. The once serious demeanor she had was quickly being replaced by something else.

"Duy tried to back off and reject the efforts of Jiro-sama, but Jiro-sama was serious. He slammed his hand next to Duy's head and grabbed his chin forcing him to make eye contact."

The Uchiha who were present began to realize that the lady was starting to make up details. Her face was flushed and she was breathing with difficulty. They quickly realized that the lady was someone who should never be let near Jiro-sama.

"Sakura blossoms were flying as Jiro-sama started to close his lips towards Duy's and"

Thunk!

The lady had changed from talking about the real events to talking about what she wanted to see. The other clan members who were staunch supporters of Jiro quickly knocked her out and dragged the lady back.

As Sarutobi was still standing with his most loyal and serious anbu still nearby, another representative was sent forward by the Uchiha. Sarutobi recognized him as the son of Kagami Uchiha. He stepped forward and clarified the situation.

"As loyal supporters of Jiro-sama, we wanted to make sure that his behavior was not influenced in any way, shape, or form by you or any peculiar interests you may have towards your own gender, hokage-sama."

Sarutobi was definitely feeling shock right now. As the hokage, he had always been treated with respect except by some old friends or enemies, but this was a first. He was being accused of being gay again and it wasn't even that long since the last incident with Jiraiya. Sarutobi still remembered the feeling of having to sleep on the couch when he was kicked out of the bedroom by his wife who was angry that such rumors could even come about.

"As I stated before, I am not gay."

The Uchiha crowd all stared at Sarutobi with piercing glares, but one glare was burning right into Sarutobi's neck and he was already beginning to feel the cold air of sleeping on the couch. After the crowd of Uchiha left apparently satisfied that their hokage was not going around corrupting their Jiro-sama, Sarutobi quickly turned to meet his wife and explain, but she was gone.

As Sarutobi began to walk home feeling rather lonely, he was reminded of the presence of his anbu after one anbu pulled out a violin and began to play a sad and lonely little tune. Sarutobi turned towards that particular anbu rather incensed. He recognized that anbu from his mask which was that of a songbird. Whenever, some situation arose, he would always play some instruemnt to accompany the mood, but the anbu that would usually set up spotlights was absent today. Sarutobi's anger faded away into curiousity, but his eyebrow twitched after the violin resumed playing.

Sarutobi snapped his finger and all of his nearby anbu arrived and bowed before him. He quickly asked about the anbus who would usually play with the spotlight jutsu. Sarutobi was rather sad to know that the group was currently gone on a mission to investigate further into the small invasion that Iwa ninja had tried.

When Sarutobi arrived at his office, he quickly brought out the sign which stated that he was straight before hanging it on his office's front door. Before leaving the office to head home, Sarutobi made sure to write a note for himself reminding himself to teach Jiro about the summoning jutsu as well as offering him some options in summoning clans.
