--Zach POV--

With Guy staring at me in shock, I passed by him to my wife, who was looking mighty pregnant. Come to think of it, she is going in her 7th month. Looking around, I didn't see Shizune, only Tsunade, the emo kid, and the delusional one. The delusional one was staring at me wide-eyed and gaping like a fish out of water, I don't think her mother told her who I was. Turning back to my wife I smiled at her and held up our lunch.

Zach: "I brought lunch for you and Shizune."

Tsunade: "Well, too bad for you, Shizune is occupied with surgery, and Guy has been waiting for a while."

Zach: "Guy, you're hungry, right?"

Tsunade scowled at me, and I could see the puppy-dog-eyed one nodding his head with tears in his eyes. With that, I smiled and wrapped my free arm around Tsunade and led her out towards a break room I walked past earlier, Guy tagged along right behind us.

Reaching the break room, I helped Tsunade into her chair, which won me brownie points, I could tell from her smile. Guy followed and sat across the table from her, and I distributed the three portions out. Sitting down next to Tsunade, we all started to dig into the grub. I do have to say Teuchi does make some mean miso ramen.

Zach: "So, Guy, we haven't been introduced, I'm Zachary Briggs, Tsunade's wonderful and majestic husband who is the best smith in the world!"

Guy: "HOW YOUTHFUL! I AM KONOHA'S SUBLIME GREEN BEAST OF PREY, MIGHT GUY!"

He actually did a little pose with his introduction, I had to give him a little golf clap for his shamelessness. Looking next to me, I could see Tsunade, she was facepalming and shaking her head. Dang, this girl can't appreciate the shameless art style, I'll have to embarrass her later.

Tsunade: "Get to the point, Guy."

Guy: "Please look at my student Lee! The doctors say he is inoperable, but I know you can help fix him! PLEASE SAVE MY STUDENT!"

As Guy said the last bit, he did a flying dogeza out of his chair, I'd give it a 10/10 in style. I clapped loudly on that one and lost brownie points from the stare that Tsunade was giving me, damn. With that, I put my hands down and looked professional, I can't help it, Might Guy is my second favorite character. But you might ask, "Hey Zach, who is your first favorite character?" and I'll look at you like you're dumb, of course, it's my wife.

Tsunade: "Guy, get off your knees. I will look at your student and assess it from there."

Guy somehow slid on his knees all the way to Tsunade and held her hand while giving her a grateful look, as grateful as it could be with tears and snot falling down his face. Tsunade's disgusted look, as she removed her hand and wiped it off, gave me some chuckles.

After finishing lunch, Tsunade stayed on script with the anime, telling Lee he should give up being a ninja. Letting him know there is a possibility of healing him, but it would be a fifty-fifty chance of him dying. I knew that was a crock of shit, she had already studied for this operation when I first gave her the medical books from my world. But, hey, who am I to ruin her fun and have Lee grow as a person.

With that, we left Lee and Guy to their own devices and melancholy, Tsunade took the lead and guided us to an office that she had commandeered for this visit. She let me in first and followed right behind me, closing the door and locking it, I turned around and raised an eyebrow at her.

Tsunade: "Is that all you think about?"

Zach: "Not all, but when I see you, it's about 50/50. 50% I'm lucky to have you, and 50% I want to bend you over something"

She slapped my shoulder while blushing at that.

Tsunade: "Stop it, this is serious talk right now."

I straightened up and gave her a silly salute.

Zach: "Yes ma'am, flirty husband option turned off."

She let out a beautiful laugh at that.

Tsunade: "I've called a meeting of all the clan leaders tonight, so I won't be home until late. So, you and Naruto are going to be on your own for dinner. But then again, I'm pretty sure he's conned Jiraiya into buying him ramen for dinner. Ever since I reamed Jiraiya, he's been like putty in Naruto's hands, it's kind of nice not having to pay for stuff!"

I laughed and remembered something that would make her super happy.

Zach: "Oh yeah! This morning I made a bet with Naruto and won it."

She gave me an incredulous look.

Tsunade: "So, you're bragging about stealing from a kid now? Do you have no shame?"

Zach: "Not when I was able to get him to bet his lifetime supply of ramen and lose it."

Tsunade purred at that and gave me a dazzling smile that knocked my socks off. She then glided towards me and molded herself against me. Tsunade then kissed me and ran a hand down my body until she reached the family jewels and grabbed them.

Tsunade: "Maybe I should let you fulfill one of those 50/50 thoughts you have about me. Would be a shame to waste this private room while we have it."

With that she slinked over to the desk and bent over it, holding herself up with her hands. Tsunade looked back at me with a "come and get it" smirk. Who am I to deny the woman I love?

--Couple Hours Later Back at the Workshop--

Remembering back to after our little love session, I felt pride watching Tsunade try to walk straight as we left the office. But here I am now, about to start a project that I think would help out the village tremendously.

Thinking back to the one anime I watched back in middle school, they had a cool chamber that you could spend 1 day in real-time and 1 year passed inside the chamber. I planned on having all the training jonins to go in it and train hard for a year and let the trickle-down effect work its wonders. Having Jiraiya in there to train them, Kakashi training alone will set off Might Guy's competitive nature.

But first, I've got to head to the shack and make some space enchantments to make everything inside bigger, like a Tardis. With that I made my way outside to the little shed outside my shop, it was cluttered with old lawn tools where I either destroyed or reformed the metal into ingots with my essence. Finishing up with the shed, I placed my hands on the wooden frame and started to change the shed into adamantium with Mythril engravings for the enchant. With that, I started a slow evening where I got plastered refilling my essence on bottles of liquor I bought from the Wandering Inn when I prepared for this endeavor. Tsunade is not going to be happy when she gets home.

--Tsunade POV--

Summoning the clans was easier then I thought, I guess my little powerplay has ruffled a lot of feathers. Luckily I have the Nara, Yamanaka, and their ally Akimichi clan, we're going to do my favorite pastime and drop knowledge bombs on the ignorant fucks. Maybe even make the Hyuga clan less assholish to their own family. I doubt it, but one can dream. As everyone got seated, it was time for me to start this meeting.

Tsunade: "Clan Heads, thank you for coming to this meeting. As you all know, I am Tsunade Senju, and I have accepted the position of Fifth Hokage. Now you may have heard of the commotion I have caused the last couple of days and wondering if I'm becoming a monster? For the answer to that, I will turn it over to the Chief Interrogator Inoichi Yamanaka."

Inoichi stood up and gave me a little bow, and with that, he started to lay out what he found out in the minds of the Elder Council. Right out of the gate, Inoichi told the gathering about Danzo and the council's involvement in the Uchiha massacre. Followed that up by the plans he had for the Hyuga Clan, that's when I saw a very shocked and frustrated look in Hiashi's eyes. When he caught me looking, he nodded his head in thanks for cutting the head off the snake.

As the report continued, everyone's face had become grim at what had been going on underneath their noses, especially those clans who had children missing that had been recruited into ROOT. By the time he finished, everyone was emotionally drained, and I dismissed everyone but motioned to Hiashi to stay. After the room cleared and the door closed, I addressed Hiashi.

Tsunade: "Hiashi, I know you have a lot to mull over. But in a couple of days, I want you to come over to my compound to have a chat with me and my husband."

Hiashi: "Yes, Lady Fifth, will that be all?"

Tsunade: "You are free to leave, thank you for giving me a chance."

Hiashi: "At first, I wanted to overthrow you for your aggressive ways. But after finding the reasoning behind it, I don't think I would have handled it any better. If I may ask, is the council alive?"

Tsunade: "I'm sure a lot of the Clan Heads had the same idea as you, that's why I called this meeting. To your second question, yes, they are still alive and will be executed on the day of my public coronation."

Hiashi bowed, thankful for the information.

Hiashi: "Also, I would like to congratulate you on having twins."

I gave him a big laugh, and he started to look at me funny.

Tsunade: "No, no, I'm not laughing at you. It's just you're the first person other than Jiraiya to comment on me being pregnant. Like they're scared that I will beat them up for stating the obvious!"

Hiashi chuckled at that.

Hiashi: "Well, it's probably because you've beaten people up for less. The night is getting late, may I take my leave to go and talk it over with my clan?"

Tsunade: "You are dismissed, and thank you again for trusting me in this."

Once he left, I let out a big sigh, looking at the clock on the wall, it was already 1 AM.

Tsunade: "Zach's gonna be grumpy that I'm this late. Better get home before he gets all pouty, though he does look cute when he does that."

With a pep in my step, I made my way home, enjoying the peacefulness of the village at night. Maybe I should have Zach take me out on a date at night sometime later, and not just to the Wandering Inn. But then again, he's told me about a city that never sleeps in his world, that has a lot of casinos called Las Vegas.

After I reached the compound, I made my way to the workshop, where I knew Zach would be. If I'm not waiting for him in the house, he tends to get sidetracked and loses track of time. Once the workshop came into view, I saw something new next to it. The wooden shack wasn't there anymore, it was replaced by a sleek metallic shack that had almost golden designs covering the entire outside of it. It was honestly breathtaking, like a piece of art gifted from the heavens.

Walking closer, I spotted a certain someone sitting down to the side of it, surrounded by liquor and sporting a wide grin. When he saw me, somehow, the grin got even larger and goofier.

Zach: "Shello love of shmy shlife, I made shometin beautiful!"

Why, oh why did I think he wouldn't overdo anything?
