Bald Bully

Ichiraku's uncle made noodles quickly, and before long, two fragrant takoyaki chashu ramen were placed in front of them.

"Alright, let's dig in!" Iruka clasped his hands together, then devoured the chashu ramen in front of him. Ye Lan followed Iruka's example, said the same, and began to gobble it down as well.

Ye Lan and Iruka were having a great time eating chashu ramen, especially Ye Lan. He hadn't expected Ichiraku Ramen to be so surprisingly delicious. The seemingly ordinary ramen not only had soft and chewy noodles, but the broth was also a rich, thick soup, topped with a generous layer of takoyaki. Ye Lan could almost be certain that he hadn't eaten such delicious noodles in his teens in his original world.

Ye Lan casually asked, "Iruka, I heard you and Naruto Uzumaki are very close."

When Iruka heard Ye Lan mention Naruto Uzumaki, his eyes narrowed into slits, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Oh? Isn't Ye Lan new to Konoha Village? Do you know Naruto?"

Ye Lan smiled and said, "I just heard it from the villagers. He's a troublemaker. I heard he's not very old, but he dared to paint on the Hokage's rock statue. He's quite famous in the village."

Iruka beamed, "That's just how Naruto is, very lively."

Ye Lan smiled, tilted his head, and looked like he was all ears.

Iruka said thoughtfully, "Naruto, what others see on the surface is his mischievousness, his pranks, his love of mischief, but I know he is a very, very good child. He has no parents since he was a child, he is alone, but he can still laugh every day, and he always looks very happy. My experience is very similar to his, but this guy's efforts are even above mine. One day, he may really be able to stand at the pinnacle of the ninja world. And he is also my most beloved student."

Ye Lan smiled and nodded.

Iruka had a good eye and didn't miss a single point.

Iruka was obviously excited and continued, "I forgot to tell you, that Naruto loves to eat the ramen here, and he has a good relationship with the owner. I'll let you meet him when you have time."

Ye Lan laughed and said, "Iruka, this afternoon I became Kakashi's student. Starting tomorrow, I will train with Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke."

"Really! That's great. Naruto is easy to get along with. You will definitely become very good friends."

Just as they were talking happily, a few people suddenly came outside the door. The leader was a Bald Bully with a face full of橫肉, who looked like someone not to be trifled with.

The Bald Bully took a few people and sat down directly in the corner, then slammed the table and shouted, "Ichiraku, come out!"

Ichiraku, who was making ramen inside, frowned when he heard this, but when he saw the Bald Bully, he said with a smile, "Lord Xiaojing, what brings you to my humble shop?"

The Bald Bully said, "Stop talking nonsense to me. I came to your shop to eat, of course. First, give each of my brothers a serving of your best noodles. Remember, let Rainbow bring the noodles up."

When the Bully mentioned Rainbow, the greed in his eyes was obvious.

Of course, Ichiraku knew what this Bully was thinking, but he couldn't resist. This Bully was a well-known tyrant in this area. He didn't know Ninjutsu and could only endure it.
