Chapter 123: Training
Early the next morning, Kawakaze and Tsunade woke up and took the two kids out for breakfast. Since they hadn't stayed up late, waking early was natural.
They headed to the noodle shop around the corner. The shop owner clearly remembered Kawakaze from the last visit, particularly the memorable order of ten oysters.
After everyone made their selections, the owner slyly asked, "Sir, would you like some more oysters? They're fresh."
Kawakaze immediately caught on, his expression turning wary as he realized he'd left a lasting impression.
"Cough, cough~ no thanks," he replied, trying to brush it off.
Tsunade noticed his discomfort and almost burst out laughing.
"Come sit, come sit," Kawakaze said, quickly finding a seat and motioning for everyone to join him, trying to escape the awkward moment.
"Oyster?" Tsunade teased, clearly unwilling to let the matter drop.
"Can we just eat?" Kawakaze pouted, his mock irritation evident. He didn't need oysters!
"Haha, okay, let's eat," Tsunade said, laughing unabashedly, entirely unbothered by his reaction.
The two younger ones, Minato and Nawaki, watched the exchange in puzzlement. To them, it seemed like some sort of riddle.
