Chapter 164 Ichiraku Ramen
After filling out the registration form, Richard handed it to the scar-faced chuunin in front of him.
The scar-faced chunin took the registration form, glanced at it briefly, and said to him: "You can leave. I wish you a happy life in Konoha."
After saying that, without waiting for his answer, the Scarface Chuunin left.
When the Scarface Chuunin left, Richard turned around and left the room without any hesitation, walking along the road towards the center of the village.
Although the Scarface Chuunin did not continue to question him, he knew that this did not mean that Konoha would not investigate him in the future.
I didn't make things too difficult for him when he entered the village, just so as not to affect Konoha's reputation for being friendly to the outside world.
Among the five hidden villages, Konoha is the most open village on the surface, and any family and ninja are welcome to move to Konoha.
But in reality, Konoha is not as open as it seems.
When other families and ninja move to Konoha, they will be monitored by Konoha for a long time.
The surveillance will be gradually ended until it is confirmed that the other party has no intention of harming the village.
But even so, it is difficult for outside families and ninjas to truly enter the center of power in the village.
To put it simply, Konoha is developed on the surface, but on the inside it is no different from other hidden villages. They are all somewhat xenophobic and distrustful of outside families and ninjas.
Although he knew that Konoha would arrange ANBU to spy on him, Richard didn't take it to heart.
Just monitor him. As long as they don't disturb his life, he doesn't bother to care about those ANBU ninjas.
After entering the village, Richard's first destination was the famous Ichiraku Ramen.
Although Ichiraku Ramen is just an ordinary noodle shop with an ordinary appearance, it cannot even accommodate more than ten customers for dining at the same time.
But Richard still regarded Ichiraku Ramen as his first check-in place when he came to Konoha.
He doesn't know yet whether the food at Ichiraku Ramen is delicious.
However, judging from the fact that Naruto, the future Seventh Hokage, grew up eating it, Ichiraku Ramen should be quite good.
Otherwise, Naruto wouldn't like Ichiraku Ramen so much.
Naruto did not have much money, but he was not a fool.
If the food in a ramen shop is not delicious, he will definitely not regard it as his dining room.
On the way to Ichiraku Ramen, Richard saw an exchange shop on the roadside.
Because Konoha often has guests and clients from other countries, there are many shops in Konoha that specialize in currency exchange.
Without any hesitation, Richard went directly into the exchange shop, took out ten pieces of gold from his backpack, and placed it on the counter.
After seeing the gold he took out, the staff at the counter was stunned for a moment, and then said to him: "Sir, do you want to exchange it all?"
"Yes, redeem them all!"
Richard replied.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
After saying that, the staff picked up the gold nugget and inspected it.
Then, he called his supervisor and reported to him.
After receiving the final confirmation from the supervisor, the staff began to help exchange the currency of the Kingdom of Fire.
After a busy time, the staff returned to Richard carrying a suitcase.
These 10 pieces of gold were exchanged for a total of 800 million taels.
One tael in the Land of Fire is equivalent to 10 yen.
800 million ryang is equivalent to 80 million yen.
After a simple calculation using the gold price on Blue Star, Richard found that this exchange shop was quite honest and didn't do any tricks.
But this is normal.
A person who can take out 800 million taels of gold in one go cannot be an ordinary person.
Don't say this is Konoha, even exchange shops in other villages don't dare to play tricks easily.
After exchanging the required Fire Nation coins, Richard threw the suitcase into the system space and left the exchange shop with a calm expression.
Although he didn't know the specific location of Ichiraku Ramen, after asking a few passers-by, he came to Ichiraku Ramen without any effort.
It was noon, and several customers were sitting at the Ichiraku Ramen counter.
The curtain of the ramen shop covers part of the customer's body.
But among these guests, Richard still saw a familiar figure.
Naruto!
I really treat Ichiraku Ramen as a canteen!
After seeing Naruto, Richard complained in his mind.
Although there was a slight accident, he did not intend to change his plan and walked straight towards Ichiraku Ramen.
After opening the door curtain and sitting down at an empty seat in front of the counter, Richard said to Acorus, the only waiter in the store: "Hello, please give me a tonkotsu barbecued pork ramen."
Tonkotsu char siu ramen is one of Naruto's favorite ramen.
Although it is not the most expensive ramen with the richest ingredients, Richard still chose the tonkotsu BBQ pork ramen.
After hearing what he said, Chang Pu, who is both a waiter and the boss's daughter, quickly replied: "Okay, please wait a moment."
After saying that, Chang Pu looked at Richard reluctantly.
Although she had never met Richard before, one thing she was sure of was that Richard was handsome and suited her aesthetics.
Elegant and smooth silver long hair, handsome and exquisite appearance, tall and slender figure, unique and outstanding charm.
Not to mention that Acorus is only 17 years old now, which is the age when the girl is pregnant.
Even if she is now a mature woman in her 30s, she will still be attracted to Richard.
When Ayame left, Naruto, who was eating ramen, raised his head and turned to look at Richard unconsciously.
When Richard spoke just now, he felt that Richard's voice was a little familiar.
After seeing Richard, Naruto immediately widened his eyes and said loudly with a look of surprise: "Why are you here?"
Naruto's voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of everyone in the store.
"Why can't I be here?"
Richard asked Naruto back.
Uh...
Naruto was speechless and didn't know what to say for a while.
Although he didn't have a good first impression of Richard, he really couldn't think of how to refute Richard now.
After more than ten seconds, he continued: "I know, you are a spy from another village."
"No, I'm not a spy, I'm a businessman, I came to Konoha to do business."
Richard said calmly.
"You are lying, you are obviously a ninja."
Naruto jumped down from his seat and looked at Richard with a vigilant face.
"Who said that ninjas can't do business?"
Richard's tone was as calm as ever.
He was not surprised at all that Naruto would react like this.
Because in Naruto's eyes, he was the bad guy who tried to kill Bai.
Just when Naruto was about to say something, Richard said, "Bai is not dead, and Zabuza is not dead either. I let them go."
After hearing his words, the vigilance on Naruto's face suddenly dissipated a lot.
But soon, he said to Richard, "How do I know if what you said is true?"
"Boy, I don't need to prove anything to you, believe it or not."
"Also remind you that I don't like to be disturbed when I eat."
After speaking, Richard released a small part of his aura that he had deliberately suppressed, and locked Naruto with his aura.
Although he was not releasing murderous aura now, but only a part of his own aura.
But after being locked by his aura, Naruto was still fixed in place like he was hit by a fixed body technique, unable to move.
Naruto is indeed the chosen one in the Naruto world, but now he is just a Genin who can't even master the Three Body Technique.
Whether it is the Rasengan, the Sage Mode, or the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, etc., he has not mastered it yet.
In the original plot, Naruto and Sasuke who participated in the Chunin Exam met Orochimaru who was disguised as a Kusagakure candidate in the Forest of Death.
Then, they were stunned by the murderous aura released by Orochimaru.
Even Orochimaru, who was not as strong as him, could easily suppress the two of them with murderous aura, so Richard could certainly do it.
After suppressing Naruto with his aura for a few seconds, Richard retracted the released aura and ignored Naruto.
Naruto, who regained his freedom, looked at Richard in shock.
Although he didn't know what Richard had just done, he experienced fear and terror that he had never experienced before after being locked by the aura released by Richard.
After looking at Richard for a few seconds without saying a word, Naruto paid the bill and left Ichiraku Ramen, accurately looking for Kakashi.
Not long after Naruto left, Ayame brought up the pork bone char siu ramen Richard ordered.
Looking at the pork bone char siu ramen in front of him, which looked exactly the same as in his memory, Richard showed a satisfied expression, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it.
As he guessed, although Ichiraku Ramen is a very ordinary ramen restaurant, the ramen here tastes pretty good.
Although it is not a peerless delicacy, it is already good from the perspective of ramen.
If better ingredients can be used, the taste can be even better.
Not long after, Richard finished the pork bone char siu ramen in front of him.
After taking a look at the menu posted on the wall, he ordered a portion of all the flavors of ramen on the menu.
For ordinary people, ordering like this is definitely a waste.
But for Richard, this is not a problem at all.
Not to mention more than ten bowls of ramen, even if it is more than a hundred bowls of ramen, he can eat it all.
Richard's action of ordering all the ramen did not attract the attention of other guests.
Through Naruto's words just now, they already knew that Richard was a ninja.
Although not all ninjas are big eaters, it is normal for ninjas to eat more than normal people.
Richard remembered it very clearly.
Hinata had a brilliant record of eating 46 bowls of ramen at one time, and won the title of "Ichiraku Ramen Big Eater" in one fell swoop.
After staying in Ichiraku Ramen for more than half an hour and eating all the flavors of ramen, Richard left Ichiraku Ramen with satisfaction.
At the same time, he decided to come to Ichiraku Ramen to solve three meals if he had time in the future.
It must be said that Ichiraku Ramen, which Naruto has eaten since he was a child, is indeed a good ramen restaurant.
Just as he was about to deal with the next thing.
For example, when buying a residence and a store, Naruto appeared in front of him again.
To be precise, all the members of Team 7 appeared in front of him.
In addition to Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura were also pulled over by Naruto.
After seeing Richard, Kakashi stood two or three meters in front of him and said to him: "Hello, I didn't expect you to come to Konoha."
"I didn't introduce myself when we met last time."
"I am Hatake Kakashi."
Kakashi introduced himself politely.
Although he didn't even know Richard's name, one thing he was sure of was that Richard's strength was not inferior to his own.
In addition, the powerful wind and flurry of wind blades that Richard used last time also interested him very much.
On the surface, Richard's powerful wind, Wind Blade Flurry, is similar to Wind Escape.
But he knew that it was not Feng Dun.
He didn't see any chakra in the wind blade.
"My name is Richard, and I am now a businessman who comes to Konoha to do business."
Richard replied calmly.
Among the Jonin in Konoha, the one he admired most was Kakashi.
This is not because Kakashi has the Sharingan he got from Obito, but because Kakashi is a genius.
Not only that, Kakashi, like him, has silver hair.
In addition, although few people have seen Kakashi's true appearance, Richard knows that Kakashi is an out-and-out handsome guy.
Although he may not be as good as him, he is definitely the most handsome man in the world of Naruto.
After hearing Richard's answer, Kakashi continued: "What business does Mr. Richard plan to do in Konoha?"
"If nothing else, a weapons store should be opened."
Richard replied.
As for what kind of store he wanted to open, he had already thought about it after he decided to enter Konoha as a businessman.
Although he is not a blacksmith and has no experience in forging weapons, he now possesses vibranium that is absolutely impossible to appear in the world of Naruto.
His plan is simple, that is, to open a shop selling vibranium weapons in Konoha.
Of course, because vibranium is so special and precious, he plans to open a high-end weapons store that ordinary people can never afford.
Although he doesn't care whether he can make money, if the price is too low, it will be a shame for the vibranium in his hand.
Weapon shop?
As soon as Richard finished speaking, Kakashi frowned.
Although he didn't feel any malice from Richard, he always felt that there was something wrong with Richard suddenly coming to Konoha to open a weapons store.
After a few seconds of silence, Kakashi continued: "We still have something to do, so I won't disturb you, Mr. Richard."
After saying that, he was ready to leave with Naruto and the other three.
It was obvious that Naruto didn't intend to leave just like this.
However, just when Naruto was about to say something, Sakura's voice rang out.
"Stop making trouble, Mr. Richard is not a bad person, we still have tasks to do."
After hearing what Sakura said, Naruto immediately shut his mouth and followed Kakashi away.
After Kakashi and his party left, Richard walked towards the housing agency where he and Acorus had just inquired.
Konoha is a village with a well-established business, and there are many housing agencies in the village.
Not only that, there are casinos, sex venues, black markets, etc. in the village.
Not long after, Richard arrived at Shida Real Estate House, which was not far from Ichiraku Ramen.
The so-called real estate house is a housing agency.
Whether it is house leasing, buying and selling, or exchange and management, it can all be handled at the real estate house.
After arriving at the Shida Real Estate House, a male staff member in his early forties came to him immediately.
Without any hesitation, Richard immediately told the other party his request.
