She punishs Naruto

Patrick's smile never wavered as he shook his head. "I think I've already said all I need to, Tsunade-sama. As I've told Naruto before, I don't think we can be friends." His voice was laced with a hint of sadness, but his eyes betrayed nothing.

Tsunade's eyes narrowed, her gaze piercing as she searched for any sign of deception. But Patrick's mask was firmly in place, and she couldn't read anything beyond his friendly demeanor.

"I see," Tsunade said, her voice firm but controlled. "Naruto, I think it's time for you to calm down and go home. We'll discuss this further in the morning."

Naruto's face twisted in frustration, but he knew better than to disobey Tsunade. He turned and stormed out of the room, leaving the others to wonder what had just happened.

As the door closed behind Naruto, Tsunade turned to Patrick. "Patrick, I think it would be best if you stayed away from Naruto for a while. He's clearly upset about something, and I don't want things to escalate further."

Patrick nodded, his friendly mask still firmly in place. "Of course, Tsunade-sama. I understand completely."
