Just then, the door to the Hokage Office opened again. A woman with a graceful figure walked in, set the half-meter-high stack of documents she was carrying on the desk, and said to Minato Namikaze:
"These are all of today's documents. I hope you can finish processing them as soon as possible."
With that, the woman turned and left, closing the door behind her. Her movements were fluid, making it clear she had done this many times before.
Ye Feng could not help saying:
"Minato, your workload is terrifying! Even ten of you probably wouldn't be enough!"
Minato Namikaze sighed helplessly:
"Isn't it all because of you? This reform has brought up all sorts of problems in every area, and my workload has grown considerably."
Just then, Ye Feng suddenly leaned toward Minato Namikaze with a sleazy grin and whispered:
"Minato, when did you develop this taste? Aren't you afraid Kushina will... snick...!"
As he spoke, Ye Feng drew a finger across his throat.
Minato Namikaze froze at his words:
"Taste? What taste?"
Thinking Minato Namikaze was playing dumb, Ye Feng said unhappily:
"Oh, come on, that's no fun. I mean that woman just now. That figure..."
Before Ye Feng could finish, Minato Namikaze hastily clapped a hand over his mouth and whispered:
"Don't talk nonsense! If Kushina gets the wrong idea, I'll be in for it! That's Yoshino Nara, Shikaku's wife. The Political Department is so busy right now that we brought Yoshino in to help temporarily!"
Only then did Ye Feng realize he had misunderstood. Still, even Konoha's most important department, the Political Department, needed temporary help, which showed just how busy it was.
"But your workload as Hokage is far too heavy. Konoha needs to expand now, and there'll be even more to manage in the future.
