Naruto: I, Shikotsumyaku, Byakugan Princess

Chapter 31 First meeting
At this moment, unaware that her true nature had been thoroughly investigated, Hui Li was walking on the main street of Konoha.

Ignore the noise of people around you.

Hui Li manipulated the chakra to gather in her heart.

The white eye draws power from her, bringing light back to her.

hum!
The clear visual experience, coupled with a 360-degree panoramic view, brings a strong sense of security.

The road was wide enough for three carriages to pass side by side, and the commercial district was still bustling with people under the scorching sun that could melt your hair.

A toddler, not even three years old, kicked a ball onto the roof, which was then gently tossed back by an unknown ninja uncle passing by on the roof.

The noisy, peaceful, and tranquil atmosphere left Hui Li somewhat bewildered.

The bloody mist seemed to be just a nightmare for her; once she woke up, she returned to her original peaceful world.

But on the distant cliff, four enormous heads reminded Gray Li that this was the Konoha she had been longing for.

goo goo...

A sudden rumbling sound from her stomach snapped Hui Li back to reality.

First, we'll eat, then we'll meet our relatives in the Hyuga clan compound, and then we'll showcase our talents by learning the Hyuga main family's Eight Trigrams Palm technique. Who knows, we might even be able to compete with Hinata for the future head of the Hyuga clan.

With beautiful dreams for the future in mind, Hui Li walked straight towards Ichiraku Ramen.

Ichiraku Ramen.

A popular spot for social media check-ins in Konoha, and also a super dungeon where the Nine-Tailed Fox appears regularly.

With the ability to devour tailed beasts and fuse chakra, Hai Li coveted the Nine-Tailed Fox inside Naruto.

She only absorbed a little bit of the Three-Tails' power, which brought her a terrifying boost of twice the strength. If she ate a few more bites of the Nine-Tails, wouldn't her strength take off like a rocket?

dong dong dong...

The white cane taps the ground.

Reaching out, she pushed aside the noren hanging in front of the door, which had the word 'Ichiraku' written on it, and entered the shop.

The shop's facilities are rather simple and old, with a few square stools casually placed in front of the long bar.

However, there were so many guests that the seats were packed, and even with her eyes rolled, Hui Li couldn't find a space to accommodate her.

Ms. Ayame, carrying a bowl of noodles and wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen. When she saw Hui Li enter, her gaze lingered for a moment on Hui Li's blindfolded face before a standard smile appeared on her delicate features.

"Hello little sister, there are no seats available at the moment. Would you like to wait here for a bit?"

The luck didn't seem to be very good, but it's a popular restaurant, and it was during mealtime, so it's normal.

"Row……"

Before Hui Li could finish speaking, a very penetrating voice suddenly came from the entrance of the ramen shop.

"I'm going to eat five bowls of tonkotsu ramen today!"

"My old man's wallet can't take it anymore, Naruto."

"I don't care, you promised to treat me to Ichiraku Ramen before school starts tomorrow, you can't go back on your word!"

While talking.

The two people had already pushed open the noren curtain and come in.

Hui Li looked up.

The blinding chakra light made her eyelashes tremble.

The pupils appear as a concentrated, diffused gray, indicating that the perspective parameters have been lowered.

The two people, one old and one young.

The old man wore a Hokage robe, his robust body was slightly hunched, he leaned on a cane, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were like knife cuts that extended all the way to his cheekbones. Behind him was a little boy with blond hair, six whiskers on his face, and bright sky-blue eyes.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Naruto Uzumaki.

So lucky?
Not only did Hui Li recognize it, but other customers in the store also recognized it.

Before he could finish his noodles, he was about to go up and say hello when he saw Naruto Uzumaki next to Hiruzen Sarutobi. His smile vanished, replaced by disgust.

"Let's go, I'm full."

"Boss, check out."

The guests put down their chopsticks, paid their bills to Ayame, said goodbye to the Third Hokage, and then turned and left.

Soon, the once bustling shop became somewhat deserted.

Changpu gave the change to the customer, only to find that the customer had already walked away. She could only write it down on the bill and wait for the customer to come back and return it.

He then pulled out the bill and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "What would you like to eat, Hokage-sama?"

"I'm sorry, Sister Changpu."

Naruto lowered his head dejectedly.

Although he was used to being bullied, he still felt guilty because he caused Ichiraku Ramen to close down.

"It's alright, there's a seat available. What would Naruto like to eat? Tonkotsu ramen again?" Ayame said with a smile, clearly not concerned that Naruto was affecting her business.

"Pork bone..."

"Wait a minute, Naruto. There's a first-come, first-served rule. No cutting in line."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and turned to look at Kairi, who had been standing there motionless the whole time: "Isn't there a little girl over there?"

"Oh yes!"

Ayame slapped her forehead in regret. Every time Naruto came, all the customers in the shop would leave, and she subconsciously assumed that Hairi had already left as well.

"Excuse me, little sister, what would you like to eat?"

Changpu came out from behind the bar, helped Huili to a stool, put the package and white cane aside, and asked her in a low voice.

"I can't see the menu, do you have any recommendations?"

"Tonkotsu, tonkotsu ramen is so delicious!"

Naruto, who was sitting to the side with short, golden hair, suddenly spoke, his large, sky-blue eyes showing a hint of timidity.

"Okay, then let's start with a bowl of tonkotsu ramen."

Ayame wrote on the menu: "Naruto is also a tonkotsu, right?"

"Super, super, super big portion!"

"I'm fine as long as I'm normal."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a chuckle.

"Okay, coming right away," Changpu said, quickly returning to the kitchen after clearing away the dishes left by the guests.

"Thank you."

The three sat in a row on the benches waiting for their ramen when Hui Li suddenly turned to thank Naruto.

"Uh...hehe...no, you're welcome."

When faced with Hui Li's advances, Naruto scratched the back of his head, feeling flattered.

"Um...aren't you afraid of me?"

"Are you ugly?"

"Uh……"

Naruto was momentarily speechless.

Looking at the exquisite face in front of him, which couldn't be hidden even with his eyes covered, he really didn't dare to say how handsome he was.

“It doesn’t matter if I’m ugly, I can’t see it,” Hui Li said, pointing to her blindfold.

"I'm not ugly!"

"I believe you."

"real!"

"it is good."

"Hehehe..." Hiruzen Sarutobi stroked his beard, looking at the two people chatting idly in front of him, a kind smile on his face.

A fox spirit boy, hated by the entire village, encounters a beautiful blind girl.

What a poetic encounter!

As Hiruzen Sarutobi gazed at the man and woman before him, he couldn't help but recall his own youth.

Boom!

Smoke suddenly rose from outside the store.

An undercover agent wearing a green vest and a monkey-face mask walked into the store.

Upon seeing the silver-haired girl sitting in front of the bar, he stiffened for a moment before quickly returning to normal and whispered a report to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Sandaime..."

The sound was faint and difficult to hear.

While chatting with Naruto, Hai Li noticed something unusual about the newcomer, and her ears twitched almost imperceptibly.

An invisible power of vision gathered in both ears.

Physical dominance was suddenly activated.

The auricle is reshaped into a funnel shape that better conforms to acoustic focusing, improving high-frequency sound capture while maintaining a natural appearance. External auditory canal extension and calibration fine-tunes the length and diameter of the external auditory canal to enhance vocal sensitivity.

The small bones in the ear are also being modified under the influence of chakra.

The malleus, incus, and stapes are replaced with a honeycomb hollow structure to improve the speed of sound wave vibration response.

soon.

The faint sounds from the shadows gradually became clearer.

"Gangzi Tetsu...discovered a suspicious blind girl...named Hui Li...no chakra reaction detected in the barrier..."

"Grey Glass, your name is so beautiful."

Naruto's naturally loud voice left Haili somewhat at a loss.

"……Thanks."

Eavesdropping on the whispers between the Anbu and Sarutobi, watching the look in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes when Naruto called out Hairi's name.

hmm~
Like sitting on pins and needles.

Less than an hour after infiltrating Konoha, he was reported to the Third Hokage as a spy.

The most terrifying thing is that she is currently having a pleasant conversation with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha, while the Third Hokage is watching the whole thing.

Tsk~
Careless.
