"Boss, how much for these Pacific saury?"
At a fish stall in the market, Kakashi pointed at several Pacific saury with intact bodies and bright eyes and asked.

For some inexplicable reason, Kakashi wanted to laugh.
If he told Kurenai, she would absolutely laugh Asuma to death.
After picking out four Pacific saury, Kakashi chose a sea bass weighing four jin.
