Before he knew it, it was almost noon. Time really passed quickly. I'll have Ichiraku Ramen for lunch today. Tonight, I'll go to Uncle Minato's for dinner. It's been so long since I've had Aunt Kushina's cooking. I'm starting to miss it! As he spoke, Uzumaki Chenhao was already nearing the entrance of Ichiraku Ramen.
Konoha had quite a few places to eat, but if you wanted ramen, you had to go to Ichiraku Ramen. The ramen there was truly incredible.
In the past, the protagonist of the original Naruto world—Naruto Uzumaki, who had yet to be born—had also loved Ichiraku Ramen.
"Ichiraku Ramen, I've finally arrived. I'll have a bowl of Tonkotsu Chashu Ramen today!" Uzumaki Chenhao said with a smile as he stood at the entrance.
"Boss, one bowl of Tonkotsu Chashu Ramen, please!" Uzumaki Chenhao said to the middle-aged owner as he entered the shop.
"So it's little Chenhao. Have a seat first. I'll make your ramen right away!" The owner of Ichiraku Ramen was delighted to see Uzumaki Chenhao and spoke to him with a smile.
Hearing the owner's words, Uzumaki Chenhao nodded with a smile and found a seat in a corner.
It had to be said that the owner of Ichiraku Ramen was very warm and welcoming. Besides, Uzumaki Chenhao was now quite the adorable little boy. Anyone who saw him would like him.
It's really been a long time since I came here to eat! It's noon now. Where should I go this afternoon? Uzumaki Chenhao looked around as he sat there, silently pondering.
Uzumaki Chenhao was now much stronger than before. After the two battles that morning, his overall strength had grown quite quickly. Under normal circumstances, how could he have improved so fast?
My Ninja Tool Throwing has reached the proficient level now. I never expected that after so long, my fate could finally change a little. I'll go to the Back Mountain this afternoon and consolidate my Ninja Tool Throwing skills there!
Uzumaki Chenhao had had very few friends in the past—one could even say none at all—so he had always trained alone. His favorite place was a forest atop Hokage Rock, where he went to train every time.
It had to be said that the place Uzumaki Chenhao had chosen was truly beautiful. There was a small river with fish swimming in its crystal-clear waters, while the rest of the area was filled with towering trees.
"All right, your Tonkotsu Chashu Ramen! Please enjoy, and be careful, it's hot."
Just as Uzumaki Chenhao was lost in thought, the owner of Ichiraku Ramen placed the ramen he had ordered in front of him and smiled.
"Okay, Boss. Thank you for your hard work." Seeing the Tonkotsu Chashu Ramen before him, Uzumaki Chenhao replied politely with a smile.
"It smells so good. It's still the same old taste. Time to eat!" Uzumaki Chenhao said with a smile as he looked at the Tonkotsu Chashu Ramen in front of him.
He then picked up a pair of chopsticks and began eating the ramen in his bowl.
The Naruto era was still relatively peaceful at this time. There were no major wars, though there were still many small conflicts.
Of course, in just a few days, a massive war would break out in Konoha—the Nine-Tails' invasion of Konoha.
