Chapter 94 Chance Encounter

At 4:30 the next morning, Princess Tsunade, who was still sleeping soundly, was secretly sent back to her bedroom upstairs by Xuanwu.

Facts have proved that there are not only a lot of gossips around widows, but there are also a lot of gossips around young girls.

As soon as Xuanwu walked out of Tsunade's bedroom and closed the door, he ran into Minato Namikaze who had just woken up early.

The two looked at each other and the situation became awkward in an instant.

Xuanwu's mind went blank. It's over. He's been discovered. It should be still in time to kill Xiao Taiyang now.

At the critical moment, Namikaze Minato pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Brother, are you going to wake up Lady Tsunade? No wonder you are so powerful, it turns out that you have to start training so early."

Minato praised his own wit: Big brother was thinking something bad about me just now, absolutely.

Xuanwu laughed and said, "Ahahaha, right, right, I was just about to wake her up. A day's plan begins in the morning. Why are you getting up so early?"

"Oh, me, I am, um, by the way, Ichiraku Ramen has a limited time offer today, I have to get up early to eat, otherwise I will miss the queue if I am late."

After saying this, Minato pretended to go out. He once again gave himself two thumbs up for his rationality. In fact, he was going to practice. He was a hardworking little sun.

Xuanwu just wanted to get away from this place of trouble, so he quickly said, "That's great, let's go together. I haven't eaten Uncle Shouchu's ramen for a long time, and I miss it a little (Hand-Cut: Thank you for remembering my name)."

This was beyond Minato's control. "Huh? Brother, aren't you going to practice?"

"One day is not a big deal, let's go, let's go."

The 185cm tall Xuanwu dragged the 135cm tall Minato down the stairs quickly, not giving the confused Minato any time to react.

As soon as the two of them went out, they met Sheng Shu, who had not returned home all night. Without saying a word, they pulled him to go with them.

The three of them walked on the quiet streets of Konoha. Xuanwu was happy to have survived the disaster, and Shengshu was happy to have a free breakfast.

Only Minato prayed in his heart: Uncle Hand-twister, please, please, we must open early today and hold an event. I am willing to trade Senior Rope Tree's ten years of singleness for this chance to be saved. It will be terrible if Big Brother finds out that I know too much! He will kill me!

Maybe the prayers worked, because today's hand-drawing really started early, and in order to celebrate Konoha's victory in the second war, the store really held an event.

When the three arrived, Uncle Shouchu was preparing side dishes, and his son Shouda was learning beside him with his eyes squinted.

Xuanwu sat down at the table and greeted him, "Good morning, uncle, you're having a 20% discount today."

"Hey, isn't this our hero Xuanwu? Welcome back safely."

The good news from the front had already spread throughout the village. Under the operation of the Third Hokage, the Three Ninjas became great heroes of Konoha.

Moreover, for some unknown purpose, Sarutobi Hiruzen also emphasized Xuanwu's achievements, making him second only to the three ninjas in popularity. He became the little hero of Konoha (Xuanwu: Didn't you see that I'm 185cm tall? And I'm big in all aspects, you're the small one! Your whole family is small!)

Being praised like this, Xuanwu felt a little embarrassed. "Hehe, it's not that great. I want to ask, that is, do people like me also get a 20% discount?"

Xuanwu pointed at himself weakly. After all, the Akimichi clan had long been blacklisted from all self-service and preferential activities. Some promotional slogans even stated that the Akimichi clan was excluded, which was full of malice. Humph.

His face turned serious, "Of course you won't!"

Xuanwu fell on the stage, feeling hopeless, "I knew it."

"As Konoha's hero, you get a 50% discount today!"

Hearing this, Xuanwu, who had been listless, immediately stood up and asked excitedly, "Really?"

"More real than real gold!"

"Hand-to-hand, serve me 10 servings of the signature ramen first, with more famous rolls and char siu!"

"okay!"

His hand was really twitching. Was he being too careless?

......

Just as Xuanwu was enjoying his meal, a slightly vicissitudes of life voice sounded behind him.

"Xiao Xuanwu, long time no see, when did you come back?"

Xuanwu was stunned when he heard this. What was going on? Is the Hokage so idle?

He quickly stood up and turned around, and sure enough, a little old man wearing a bamboo hat and a Hokage robe was standing opposite him, followed by four ANBU masters.

Don't think you can easily mess with this old man just because he has a kind face. In today's ninja world, in terms of combat power, if we talk about one-on-one combat, if he says he is second, no one dares to say that they are first, including the Third Tsuchikage and the Third Raikage.

Xuanwu said respectfully: "Hello, Lord Hokage, I just came back last night. I was planning to report to you this morning, but I met you here. Please take a seat."

Minato also stood up with a smile, but Nawaki was still eating his ramen by himself, completely ignoring the Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and sat in the seat before Xuanwu. The four Anbu did not come in, but stood outside to guard the air.

Xuanwu quickly cleaned up the table. There was nothing he could do. He couldn't rely on his hands because he was stunned by the sudden sight of the Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was obviously in a good mood: this little Xuanwu was still so sensible and polite.

At this moment, a hand-held ramen came out from the back kitchen, "Xuanwu, your sixth bowl is here."

As a result, he actually saw the Third Hokage, who was the same as his father. For common people like them, it was rare to see a Hokage.

Xuanwu hurriedly took the ramen and placed it in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and even handed over a pair of chopsticks considerately, "Hokage-sama, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? This is freshly baked ramen, it's really delicious, try it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't hesitate to pick up his chopsticks and started eating. "Then I'll be rude to refuse. To be honest, I'm really hungry. Roar."

Then the voice of the Third Hokage asking for noodles was heard.

Xuanwu took the opportunity to wake up the dazed Shouda, "Hand, why are you standing there? Make another bowl. Remember to add more chili and barbecued pork. Go quickly."

"Oh, oh, okay, wait a moment, Hokage-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen ate and laughed, "It's rare that little Xuanwu still remembers that I like spicy food."

"It is my honor. I am very sorry, Hokage-sama, that I should have returned with the troops, but ended up coming back so late."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought of the disciple who gave him a headache, shook his head, and said helplessly: "That incident can't be blamed on you. Tsunade usually doesn't even listen to my orders, and Shinnosuke can't control her even more."

Sarutobi Hiruzen changed the subject and said, "It must be a headache to be her student."

"No, Teacher Tsunade is a very good person and has taught me a lot. I am very grateful to her. I have to say that she is indeed a responsible and caring teacher."

Xuanwu secretly thought that she was so cute that she even took care of her on the bed.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was obviously very satisfied with this answer. "Haha, that girl, forget it, let's not talk about her. Xuanwu, I am very satisfied with your performance in this battle. In order to protect your companions, you fought to the death with the Four-Tails. You are a ninja who truly inherited the will of fire. I am very pleased."

"Thank you for your praise, Hokage. I think this is what every Konoha ninja should do."
