My Hokage Journey

When it’s meal time, the flow of people on the snack street slowly begins to increase. Each shop is filled with its own unique fragrance, attracting people coming and going, and every gourmet foodie is following their own wishes. choice.

Lu Ming and others occupied several positions at Ichiraku Ramen early. There were not many people who chose a bowl of hot and delicious ramen in this season.

Lu Ming can be regarded as a regular customer of this restaurant. After all, he was deeply influenced by his previous life. Every time he wants to eat noodles, he can't help but think of this restaurant. More importantly, the food is cheap and good.

Shikaku rarely comes here, and he has never heard of Ichiraku Ramen in the corner. Seeing several people choose their own flavors, he ordered a flavor he often eats with the intention of giving it a try.

The result was naturally very surprising to him. The appearance and rich taste simply surpassed his mother's by several ways.

Minato looked at Lu Ming, who had eaten two bowls and was about to take a third one, and lamented that his appetite today was even better than Kushina's.

"Shikaku, thank you very much for today." Lu Ming put down the ramen bowl and solemnly thanked Shikaku. After all, he even brought his father here for you today, so of course he is grateful.

"It's nothing." Shikaku picked up the ramen and took a sip of the soup. He suddenly felt his whole body warm up. "It's you, what's going on? Why are you always fighting with Uchiha?" This point made Shikaku very confused. , Lu Ming seemed to him like a calm little adult, but in this matter, he showed irrational impulsiveness, not like him at all.

It’s okay not to knock, and I don’t want to either. I smiled bitterly and said, “I have my reasons.”

When Minato and the others heard this, they just thought he was young and arrogant because of Mikoto, and didn't ask any more questions. After all, the thing didn't happen to them, so how could bystanders empathize and express their opinions.

"Although you passed successfully this time, you should know that you are already in big trouble, especially this graduation exam. You should be careful." Lu Jiu calmly analyzed the consequences of this impulse.

"No way, what else can happen if Lu Ming wins? Does he still want to cheat after losing?" Kushina looked at the three people present with a blank expression. To be honest, she was disturbed by Lu Jiu's words. A little confused.

Minato explained to Kushina with a wry smile, "It's not about the bet, but defeating Uchiha Fugaku is already a big trouble." Isn't the glory of a wealthy family something that an ordinary person can trample on at will? , Minato and Lu Ming can certainly think of the problem Lu Jiu mentioned.

"But Lu Ming also defeated that Uchiha Yao last time?" Kushina still didn't understand.

Minato shook his head. This kind of fight in the dark was not something Kushina could understand. The last time he defeated Uchiha Yoshi was an open and fair occasion, but this time it was a private fight, and the nature was completely different.

Of course, the most important thing is not this, but the identity of Uchiha Fugaku, the grandson of the second elder of the Uchiha clan. This point alone is not comparable to that of Uchiha Yoshi. Such a representative figure of Uchiha's face is... How could Uchiha endure a head-on defeat?

"When the soldiers come to cover up the water and the earth, they can only take one step at a time. Oh, by the way, the boss will have another bowl." Lu Ming could only turn his stress into appetite. He was really hungry today.

It didn't take long for the hand-made noodles to be served, "Your seafood ramen and the complimentary fried pork cutlet. Thank you for your recognition of our restaurant. Please use it slowly."

Although the custom here is that the louder the noise when eating ramen, the more respect for the store. However, Lu Ming's elegant and speedy way of eating can also make people feel his sincerity and liking, and the person in front of him Two large empty bowls were enough proof of his favorable reviews.

"Thank you." Lu Ming smiled. There are still many good people in this world. Yes, those who gave him fried pork chops were all good people.

Minato and Shikaku watched with enjoyment as Lu Ming continued to destroy the third bowl of ramen gracefully and quickly, while Kushina kept complaining next to her that she had also eaten two bowls and why she didn't give it away...

……

The source of motivation is often pressure. After bidding farewell to Minato and the others, Lu Ming was currently training tirelessly somewhere in the Konoha Forest. Sweat flowed down his face and soaked his clothes. The clothes on his back were already wet. On the back.

Swinging the stake again and again with concentration, Lu Ming still felt a lingering irritation in his heart. He only heard a cracking sound from the stake, and then a crack extended from the middle, and another crack appeared. The punch and wooden stake were directly divided into two halves.

Looking at the scrapped wooden pile, Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled bitterly. He said it in a single word, but in his heart he kept thinking that he was the kind of person he was referring to. Did an Uchiha allow himself to be like this? As for Uzumaki Nagato, who destroyed a Konoha, and the Shodai and Banye who were so far above it, they were really young.

Can he really reach the pinnacle of this world?

It seems that I am not in the mood to continue. I'd better go back early today. The graduation exam will be in a few days, so I can't be too tense. Having relaxation is the reasonable way to practice.

I went home and took a shower directly, changed some clothes, and checked that it was still early. There were still about two hours until dinner time at Tanaka's house. I couldn't think of anything to do with practicing chakra, so I went out for a walk.

In this era, there were basically no entertainment facilities in Konoha Village. Not to mention high-end products such as video games and Internet cafes, there was not even a pool table. I was bored and wandering along the street next to my house, thinking about myself. Would it be possible to make a lot of money by opening a billiards hall here? There is so little spiritual entertainment in this era.

With this mentality of looking for business opportunities, Lu Ming walked tirelessly like this. In the past, when he went shopping with a girl for more than ten minutes, he would always find a seat in the mall to sit down. Now, this can be regarded as a different kind of rest. After experiencing it, it feels really leisurely.

At this time, a young man suddenly rushed out through the crowd. Lu Ming, who was immersed in the leisurely atmosphere, swayed before he could react when his shoulder was hit. Fortunately, his body was not so weak now. Being knocked down like this, there is no such thing as a collision in this world. Otherwise, Lu Ming could just stay on the ground and try.

The reckless boy felt as if he had hit an iron plate instead of a physical body, but his good tutor still made him put his hands together and show an apologetic expression, "Sorry, I'm sorry." After speaking, he said directly and hurriedly He ran away as if something was really urgent.

Lu Ming watched his figure walking into a store at the corner from a distance, and was slightly startled. He remembered that store seemed to be, are minors already so 'fashionable' now, or is he almost unable to keep up with the trend? ?

Haha, I have nothing to do anyway, why not try something new and change my mood, Lu Ming thought.

Lu Ming made up his mind and turned around and walked towards the deserted alley... After a while, a young man 1.8 meters tall walked out of the alley again. He looked at his slender fingers and smiled. He had not smiled for a long time. This face looked familiar, and he walked straight towards the store the boy had just entered.

Arriving in front of the store, he glanced at the three golden characters on the store's sign. Lu Ming felt like he was blinded. This could really be regarded as the biggest entertainment project in Konoha. Then he thought of the gambler again. The female ninja who must lose smiled, it couldn't be such a coincidence, and walked inside with big strides...
