Chapter 3: 3
Before he could continue, Kushina interrupted him again, a sweat drop forming behind both males. "Don't be boring, Minato, it's a happy occasion, let's go for a Dinner party. I will learn as I do you know it dattebane! NOW, old man, you are coming with us. I can't let you die before I take over ."
Without waiting for their reply, she's out. Both Men chuckled a bit.
"Such a whirlwind! I don't know how you handle her, " Hiruzen mutters.
At this, Minato chuckles, "I don't, or rather I don't dare. Now it's up to you to guide this Whirlwind."
Hiruzen couldn't help but think upcoming days would really be hectic. Though He felt happy, at least the company would be more beautiful than his old secretary Hineko san.
By the time both men reached Minato's place, Kushina had already gotten Naruto ready. Who was practically bouncing at her feet at the thought of an all-out eat Ramen session.
The company soon joined Akemichi's premium restaurant handled directly by clan head Choza. Akemichis had the best restaurants in Konoha, and the good thing was they served all classes of people.
Their restaurants were tiered accordingly. Choza greets them and immediately sets them in a private booth, perks of being village leader.
Though Naruto is disappointed at not having exclusive all-out ramen eat session, there was food with noodles, so he is happy and stares wide-eyed at different dishes being served.
They eat their food, have some drinks, and talk about other news across nations. As they go out, Naruto is offered Jerky by Choza. They split up with Hiruzen reminding Kushina to join him in the office by 9 am in morning.
After they reach home, Tired Naruto quickly sleeps as Kushina tucks him in bed. After closing his room, she smirks in Minato's direction. Before he could understand, he is pulled by her into their bedroom.
"I don't know when you will be back, based on my job description. Even though I don't know if we will get an opportunity, you know," as Minato nods, they quickly strip each other and have another session.
It's around early morning when Minato gets ready. Kushina quickly puts on a short knee-length gown. "Kushina, I would've to go. Forces would be waiting for me if I don't show up by sunrise, which is soon, by the way, they may panic. Even with me flashing across to them, it will take me sometime ".
Kushina nods and kisses him on the lips and grins, "I would be waiting for you, dattebane. "
Minato nods at her. "Take care of yourself and Naruto. And all the best for the job. I have complete faith in you," as they bid goodbye, he flashes away.
Kushina sighs. It's quite early, so she tries to sleep, but she can't do much with the excitement of her new job. Huffing, she goes to the washroom.
After taking a relaxing soak comes out in her standard home outfit long green skirt and white sleeveless blouse. She cooks ramen for herself and Naruto with lots of vegetables and meat.
Naruto was a picky eater but could eat anything as long as it was with ramen. Quickly getting Naruto ready, they have breakfast. She tells Naruto to do his best and not annoy his Anbu guards.
Naruto grins at quarter to 8, Neko shows up to pick him up. Naruto hugs her, and she kisses his cheeks, much to his embarrassment.
Kushina gets ready, putting on her regular Shinobi uniform. Dark blue form hugging pants with blue full sleeves jumper topped by green Jonin vest. Underneath, she wore mesh armor over her underwear.
She reaches Hokage's office right 5 minutes before 9. Shinobis at the tower bow and greet her, already knowing of her new position. As she enters the office, She's surprised to see Hiruzen already busy at work.
She sweatdropped at a scene that had been common since her childhood. She sometimes wondered if he did paperwork even in his sleep.
He looks up and smiles at her "Ah Kushina, you are here, right on time too. Come on, let's get to the meeting chambers I had called Advisors, Jounin commander, Anbu Head, and of course clan heads about your position.
"You already know most of them. This is the formal introduction of you as Deputy Hokage or shall say their next to be boss."
Kushina smiled at this. "You didn't have to do that, old man."
Hiruzen shakes his head "First thing Kushina, you would have to call me Hiruzen or Sandaime in front of them. It's ok to call me whatever you want in private.
"Secondly, we at Konoha follow the process, and this is your initiation to a new role. Due to your special circumstances, I know you were given free skip from boring classes that were political and Shinobi etiquettes during your academy days. But do try to learn now."
Kushina blushes a bit at those memories, all but demanding him to be exempted from those torturous lessons. She had been allowed because she was Jinchurikki.
At that time, Everyone in power had agreed those lessons would be wasted on her. Instead, she was given her favorite lesson in kenjutsu and, of course, Fuinjutsu.
"I'll try my best Old-Sandaime sama, now. Let's get this started". They quickly join chambers where all mentioned personnel are already seated.
Hiruzen clears his throat as he takes a seat, with Kushina being offered a seat next to him. "Thanks for showing up on such short notice. As most of you already know, I would like to announce your next Hokage Operations formally and currently Deputy Hokage. Kushina Uzumaki."
Kushina stands up and bows a bit, "Thank you, Sandaime-Sama, it's a pleasure to meet you all. Please treat me well I would be in your care."
Hiruzen was surprised that she knew how to talk formally. Then again, he should believe in Minato.
The same thoughts were ringing through lots of people there who had known her. They had a hard time believing Kushina behaved like this.
Though her hanging breasts caught the attention of most men, they couldn't see much, but that didn't stop their thoughts from running wild.
Finally, Tsume, the clan head of Inuzuka, broke the silence and congratulated her. Soon others followed.
