Konoha Village, Hokage's office.

"Shikaku, what are you doing?"

Minato glanced at Shikaku, spread out the scroll he had placed on the table, and read it carefully.

"We received intelligence that our ally, the Wind Country, entrusted us to protect Princess Loulan."

"This is the first task given to us by the Kingdom of Wind since the alliance was formed. We must complete it." Lu Jiu said seriously.

Minato also agreed with Shikaku's idea. He thought about it and said, "If you just want to protect the princess, let Kakashi take his ANBU team."

"Hokage-sama, Kakashi's team is better at assassination, but when it comes to protection... I feel it's still lacking."

As Kakashi's apprentice to the Fourth Hokage, Shikaku naturally paid attention to him. Kakashi's character is not yet mature, and Shikaku thinks he is not suitable for this mission.

"Then let Choza and Haiichi go. With their two veteran jounin here, I believe this mission should be completed smoothly." Minato said again.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jiu still shook his head: "Ding Zao and Hai Yi left the village to do a mission, and they haven't come back yet."

"Ah... why is it at this time?"

Minato frowned slightly, and seeing Shikaku looking confident, he suddenly realized: "Okay, it turns out you have already decided who to send, are you trying to make fun of me, right?"

"Tell me who to send!" He pretended to be angry and looked at Lu Jiu, but he couldn't help laughing as he spoke.

Shikaku also smiled, he was very lucky to have a Hokage like Minato who could allow him to maximize his abilities.

After laughing, he said seriously: "Hokage-sama, have you forgotten that person from the ninja school?"

"Ninja school...you mean Xiyue?"

Shikaku nodded and explained: "Needless to say, Xiyue Jōnin's strength, and besides teaching in the ninja school, he has hardly been on any missions recently. It's time for him to go out and do some activities."

Minato pondered for a moment, and then his eyes became firm: "Okay, then let him carry out this mission!"

……

In the central street of Konoha Village, Jingu Xiyue is taking Kushina and Kaguya to watch the newly opened Ichiraku Ramen.

As a ramen shop throughout the entire Hokage, it finally officially opened today.

Because I was very famous for my craftsmanship in the past, I came out to open the store in person this time, which also attracted countless people to watch.

While waiting in line, Shen Gong Xiyue saw many acquaintances, including Kai who had not yet obtained the green vest and was only wearing green tights.

There's also Asuma, who doesn't know how to smoke, and Anko, who hasn't been cursed by Orochimaru yet.

"Xinxi, after eating ramen, do 500 push-ups. This is youth!"

Kai was still so enthusiastic that Asuma and Anko, who were traveling with him, took a step back. At this moment, they really wanted to pretend they didn't know him.

"There are so many people. This actually makes me look forward to the ramen made by Mr. Ichiraku. Let's see if it's more delicious than what you make, Xiyue."

"Tsk, I am definitely not as good as a professional as an amateur. Mr. Yile is very good at making noodles."

Just kidding, that's Otsutsuki Ichiraku, you should give him some face.

About thirty minutes later, it was finally the turn of the three of them to enter the store to taste. Ichiraku's variety of ramen is not too many or too few, because it all depends on Ichiraku's mood.

If he is in a good mood, he can add a few more ingredients, which means more ramen.

If you are in a bad mood...then you can only eat the classic flavor.

After everyone chose their favorite flavor, Jingu Xiyue looked at the long queue of people behind her and sighed: "The business of Ichiraku Ramen is really booming!"

"Sometimes I really think that I might as well stop being a ninja and just follow Mr. Ichiraku."

Of course, Shen Gong Xiyue just said it casually, and the two girls didn't take it seriously.

"It's broken. Why did I lose my wallet?"

Because they were done side by side, the person sitting next to Jingu Xiyue was not Kushina or Kaguya, but a girl who looked fourteen or fifteen years old.

The girl looked anxious because she rummaged through her pockets but still couldn't find her wallet.

This also attracted Shen Gong Xiyue's attention. He looked sideways and saw that the girl had black curly hair and fair and flawless skin.

What interests Jingu Xiyue the most is her red eyes. Judging from her clothing, this girl is not from the Uchiha clan, and although her eyes are red, there is no magatama mark.

Seeing her anxious look, Shen Gong Xiyue immediately wanted to ruffle her hair.

There's nothing I can do about it, she's so cute that people can't help but want to bully her.

Fortunately, Shen Gong Xiyue still had some sense and did not actually rub it. Instead, she placed a twenty-tael coin on the wooden table in front of her.

"Eh?" The girl raised her head in confusion, and then she realized that the big brother sitting next to her looked a little handsome.

Shen Gong Xiyue showed a warm smile and said in a gentle voice: "Little sister, it seems that you have encountered some troubles. I am in a good mood today, how about treating you to ramen?"

Say something quickly, Yuhi Kurenai, why don’t you say a word? Why are you so worthless? ! !

The girl kept reminding herself in her mind, but she couldn't say a word. She just stared blankly at the big brother in front of her, her little face gradually turning red.

After another full minute passed, the girl bit her tongue hard with her teeth. She used the pain to regain her sense and quickly turned her head away.

"Thank you, thank you big brother."

"You're welcome."

After settling the bill with the boss, the girl looked at Shen Gong Xiyue's perfect profile and hesitated to speak. After struggling for a moment, she finally plucked up the courage to ask:

"Excuse me, big brother, what's your name? Can you tell me your address? I'll come to your door and return the money to you."

From the beginning to the end, the girl did not look at Shen Gong Xiyue any more, fearing that she would fall easily again.

Shen Gong Xiyue waved her hand: "This money is nothing to me, so I don't need to pay it back."

"No!" Unexpectedly, the girl suddenly became strong and said righteously: "You must pay back the money you owe. This is a matter of principle!"

"Uh." For a moment, Shen Gong Xiyue was really shocked by the girl. Thinking that she had her heart anyway, she told her her name and address.

The girl who learned the address of Jingu Xiyue looked very happy. She ran dozens of steps in a row, then put her hands in the shape of a trumpet to her mouth and shouted: "My name is Yuhi Hong, and I will visit Brother Xiyue another day. !”

Yuhi...Yuhi Kurenai? ! !

Shen Gong Xiyue's pupils dilated, is this little sister the future Royal Sister Yuhi Hong?

The difference is quite big!

"Are you pretty, little sister?" Kaguya suddenly spoke up, causing Jingu Xiyue to tremble all over.

He turned his head with difficulty and saw Kaguya smiling, not looking angry at all.

But Shen Gong Xiyue understood that this was like the calm before the storm. If she didn't remedy it in time, she might be slapped to death.

"How can a little girl's movie be as good as the two of you? Haha, let's eat the noodles first. They won't taste good when they get cold."
