Sasuke sat a rock and sighed deeply. "I hate this," he thought, "Why didn't Tsunade pick me for one of her scrolls? Next to those five, I was the shortest. Couldn't she of made a scroll six?" The news of Tsunade's experiment spread fast throughout the village. While Naruto was uneasy with such a large Lee, Sasuke was really pissed that he was now the smallest of the giants.

"Hey Sasuke, sulking won't help any," Naruto said looking over at his friend. After the mission yesterday, them and Sakura were given the day off to rest up. They were now in the woods, discussing what happened.

"Shut up Naruto," Sasuke said, "I don't want to talk about it."

"Sasuke, if its any consolation, at equal height, I know you could beat most of the other giants," Sakura said gently. Sasuke merely grunted in response.

Elsewhere, Team Guy was having a dinner together to celebrate both Neji getting out of the hospital and Lee's new height.

"Oh and seeing so far was amazing Guy Sensei!" Lee exclaimed, "I can't wait to see if I get another growth scroll! Maybe if I'm the largest, the one I love will choose me!"

"Lee, all you did on the walk over here was talk your new height. Give it a rest," Neji said, angry not at Lee being taller than him, but how Lee was given the height on a silver platter, while he, Neji, had to fight his friends because he was enslaved.

"Lee, Neji's right," Guy said, "As punishment, I want you to walk backwards on your hands around the interior of the village 1000 times. And you have to remain your smallest."

"Right away Guy Sensei!" Lee shouted before leaving table quickly.

"You know," Tenten said quietly after Lee left, "I'm worried what will happen if he ever gets any sake in him now. I mean, without either Naruto or Iruka-sensei present, Lee could level the village easily."

"That's why, as his teammates, we have to insure that doesn't happen. Right Neji?" Guy asked.

"Right," Neji said.

Elsewhere still, Konohamaru was enjoying more respect from his peers at the Academy due to his new stature.

"Man, being that tall was great!" Konohamaru said, smiling, "I could of done anything I liked." The girls near him were fawning over him, while the guys looked on in envy and anger.

"But still small enough for me to beat you as easily as before," Iruka said, looking at Konohamaru while he was reading a book during a study period.

"Right Iruka-sensei," Konohamaru replied.

For once in his life, Jiraiya wasn't using his telescope to peep on women. Instead, he was monitoring different people to see how they reacted to Tsunade's actions. Unknown to many, he was present at Team 7's chat in the woods and the dinner talk with Team Guy. This made him feel uneasy.

"And Tsunade's still experimenting with the stuff," Jiraiya mumbled as he went on his way to Tsunade's mansion. He wanted to ask her to stop this dust making before things got out of hand.
