Chapter 287: Family Feast
Nawaki parted ways with Kawakaze at the intersection, and Kawakaze followed Tsunade to the Hokage Building. He still hadn't had enough of sharing the good news.
As soon as they entered the building, Kawakaze was ready to show off. Tsunade smiled softly, watching him act so goofy and wrapped in a deep sense of happiness.
After receiving a full share of blessings, the two arrived at the office. Poor Shōta was hopelessly buried under a mountain of documents.
"Lady Hokage, you've come at last," Shōta said hurriedly, standing up and bringing a few documents over to Tsunade. "Take a look at these documents quickly."
Before Tsunade could respond, Kawakaze stepped in and quickly took over.
"Be careful in the future," Kawakaze said, patting Shōta on the shoulder. "Tsunade's pregnant."
Then he glanced at the documents, realizing they were about important matters that required the Hokage's decision.
"Really? Congratulations to the both of you," Shōta said, his face lighting up with joy before his expression quickly fell.
I am already exhausted—and now I have to step it up even more? Perfect. Just perfect.
"The capable work more," Kawakaze said, noticing Shōta's expression and trying to reassure him. "The worst that can happen is I help out more in the future."
If this assistant quit, he'd be completely doomed.
