Chapter 24: Ichiraku!!
Chapter 24: Ichiraku!!
"Have you brought enough money?"
Itachi pinched his small wallet nervously. This time, he had taken out all the pocket money he had saved up in the past. It was about five thousand taels. He did not know if it were enough.
And these five thousand taels were saved by him on normal days. Although he was in a big family, he did not really spend money. In fact, his pocket money was not as much as others imagined. Uchiha's upbringing was very strict. Moreover, he needed to buy some extra things like Kunai. That was the big deal!
Therefore, the rich second generations were not related to him at all. He was not from the Akamichi family...
"Well, it should be... enough."
"Okay, with your words, I am relieved. I am very good at eating!"
Looking at Aoba's sparkling eyes, Itachi suddenly wanted to run away. If the money was not enough and he was detained, he would lose face for Uchiha, and it would be light to ban him!
However, he still gritted his teeth and nodded, putting on a face that looked as if he was unafraid of death.
Meanwhile, Aoba, who had secretly seen everything, began to laugh. Who would have thought that the future arrogant and domineering Itachi would actually be so cute when he was young, and would even be worried that his wallet would not be enough to pay the bill?
Aoba dared to guarantee that if he recorded this scene, in the future, he would be able to extort a large sum of money from Itachi.
...
It was still the same store from that day. As soon as she entered, the lady boss saw the couple, and her eyes immediately lit up.
"Young guests, what would you like to eat?"
"Please remove the small words, Auntie! Also, give me another fifty sticks of Three-color dango. He will pay for it!"
Aoba was a vengeful person. He remembered the 'insult' he had received here the last time. Thus, he stopped calling her sister and called her Auntie directly. He even deliberately stretched his voice.
Sure enough, the smile on the face of the lady boss who was called Auntie froze. She grunted in annoyance and went back to work. She even muttered, "The little ghosts nowadays are really not cute at all."
'Hmph! I won't lower myself to the same level as you, a money-grubber auntie.'
After a while, the two of them found a small table in the corner and sat down.
At this time, Itachi seemed to be calculating the price of fifty sticks of Three-color dango. Fifty times eight, a total of four hundred taels. Fortunately, it was good.
Aoba could see the relieved expression on Itachi's face. He was probably glad that he did not have to stay here to wash the dishes.
Then he immediately smirked and pretended to say casually, "Let's start with fifty sticks of meatballs to open the stomach. How about we go to eat noodles later? I heard that there is a restaurant called Ichiraku which is very famous. I haven't eaten it yet."
'Those fifty strings of Three-color dango were just... appetizers?'
Itachi was obviously shocked, and he began to worry about the problem of not having enough money to pay the bill. He was not worried about money, but he was afraid that when the time came, he would not have enough money and would be embarrassed!
Aoba saw through it but did not reveal it. He was happy in his heart. He was not that evil either. He simply felt that it was interesting to tease the future Itachi. After all, it would be difficult to see Itachi reveal such an expression in the future.
The fifty dango did not make the two of them wait for long and were quickly served. However, compared to last time, this time they ordered fifty skewers but there was no gift service.
'Humph, bad review!'
'Next time, no one won't come to take care of business!'
"ITADAKIMASU!"
After putting his palms together and shouting, Aoba immediately drew his bow left and right, and his mouth was filled with Three-color dango in an instant.
He had consumed too much energy, and he had not eaten in the morning, so he was so hungry that his chest was almost touching his back, so he naturally would not be polite.
On the other hand, Itachi was shocked by his eating manners that were even more exaggerated than the last time, and quickly joined the food-stealing army.
Five minutes later, the fifty meatballs were swept clean by the two of them!
Itachi now began to believe that he was just opening his stomach.
"Boss, another fifty sticks!"
Itachi began to feel a little uneasy.
After the fifty sticks had been wiped out, Itachi, who had eaten his fill, pinched his wallet and asked, "Another... another fifty sticks?"
"Again! My ass! Let's go to another store!"
After eating a hundred sticks without giving anything, Aoba decided not to give money to this store anymore, humph!
When he paid the bill, he spent a total of eight hundred taels, which was about half a month of living expenses for Aoba. It was really extravagant ---
"Where... are we going now?"
"Ichiraku Ramen. I haven't been there for so long. Oh, by the way, do you know where it is?"
"Are we really going? Are you not full yet?" Itachi nodded in confusion.
"If you don't eat his three big bowls later, I will perform handstands! Let's go!"
Therefore, under Itachi's confused little eyes, the two of them fought to go eat noodles.
.....
It just so happened that there was no one at this time, so the two of them booked the whole place.
"Welcome, what would you like to eat?" As soon as they entered, the boss greeted them with his signature sly smile.
'That's right, this is it!'
Aoba looked up at the price list hanging on the wall.
Ordinary ramen was 60 taels, special ramen was 70 taels, vegetable ramen was 65 taels, pork chops ramen was 60 taels, special pork chops ramen was 75 taels, egg noodles was 65 taels, soy sauce noodles was 90 taels, rice was 15 taels, and so on.
Aoba, who was well aware of the situation, directly ordered a meal and said, "I want a bowl of special ramen, a bowl of pork chops ramen, and a bowl of specially made pork roast ramen -- more pork chops. What do you want?"
Itachi, who was frightened, subconsciously said, "Did you order all these yourself?"
"Don't worry, since I ordered it, I can definitely finish it. Wasting food is shameful, don't you think so, uncle?"
The boss was still smiling, but after Aoba finished speaking, he raised his thumb, as if he agreed with what he said.
However, not seeing his daughter made Aoba feel a little regretful. After all, the little sister was quite beautiful.
"Then... give me a bowl of vegetable noodles."
"Okay, a total of four bowls of noodles, please wait a moment!"
When they finished ordering the bill, the boss seemed to have changed into a different person, and the momentum of a grandmaster began to go down.
No wonder in the previous life, there were always people who said that the boss of Ichiraku Ramen was actually the final big boss.
It was the big stomach king ramen competition that had been held at an unknown time.
Aoba still remembered that in the future, Hinata would win the championship with the amazing score of 46 bowls, leaving behind the legend of the 'big stomach queen'!
And the people who were defeated by Hinata were Akamichi Choji and Akamichi Chouza, who were ranked second and third.
It was really a disgrace to Akamichi's family!
In the future, if anyone said that Akamichi's family was the best at eating, Aoba would give him a slap in the face!
Therefore, in the Naruto world, Aoba's appetite was not worth mentioning at all, he was only at the level of a younger brother.
