Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

"Welcome to our shop!"

The person who greeted me was a younger-looking uncle.

He looks like an old man, but from his voice you can tell he is not that old.

"Boss! Three bowls of pork bone ramen..."

Snapped--

Jiraiya was hit on the back of the head.

Tsunade grabbed Jiraiya's ear and brought his head to her shoulder.

Jiraiya met Kozo's confused eyes.

"Private Mr. Marseille Gu Zang!"

Quickly apologizing, Jiraiya stretched out his palm and waved it at Kozo.

"Four bowls! Four bowls!"

"Four bowls of tonkotsu ramen, with eggs!"

"Got it, please take a seat, wait a moment, it will be ready soon~"

The boss greeted with a smile, then turned and went into the kitchen.

Tsunade let go of Jiraiya's ear unhappily, but Jiraiya's head refused to obey.

What should I do if my neck doesn’t work well?

It can't turn.

As a result, my eyesight also became less effective, I kept looking down, hiss - it's getting bigger and bigger, Tsunade...

Snapped--

It was obvious that Jiraiya was hit again, but his neck was healed this time.

But for some reason my nose got damaged again and I started bleeding.

"Jiraiya, I'm sorry, did I hit you too hard..."

Seeing this, Tsunade immediately felt a little guilty. She started bleeding from the nose after just two hits on the head. Did she accidentally use her super strength?

"Hey...hehe...it's a bit heavy~"

Jiraiya had a lustful look on his face, with two red ovals on his cheeks, and he kept scratching his head.

When Tsunade saw Jiraiya like this, she had no idea what was going on.

She turned her head unhappily and sat down at the table in the ramen restaurant.

Orochimaru sat down and waited early. He said that the daily playfulness of his two teammates was very interesting, but he should stay away from them.

The lingering smoke and the faint heat emanating from the ramen restaurant gave off a somewhat otherworldly atmosphere in the afterglow of dusk.

But in front of the ramen restaurant, there is the hustle and bustle of life.

The three of them chatted with each other, talking about everything under the sun, as if the vastness of the ninja world could be encompassed in their mouths.

"After becoming Chunin, Team 7 probably won't be able to act together anymore."

Jiraiya's sudden words caused the scene to fall into silence.

"Of course not."

Gu Zang broke the silence.

He lay directly on the table, holding a bowl of ramen and savoring it with relish.

"It's not just that we can't act together, it's even difficult to see each other~"

Tsunade's mouth twitched unconsciously. She thought Gu Zang would say something comforting. Sure enough, this was Mr. Gu Zang.

"Slurp—the path of a Chunin is very broad. It's not just about carrying out missions. Besides, the three of you have different talents and specialties, so naturally you should go to different places to shine~"

"Yes..."

Jiraiya looked thoughtful and turned to look at Tsunade.

"Tsunade, what are you going to do?"

Looking at Jiraiya who was laughing, Tsunade was not as happy as him, but thought seriously.

"Actually, I really want to travel around the ninja world... But as a ninja, I should go to Konoha Hospital to study. I want to become a medical ninja."

"Then you have to do your best. If I get hurt in the future, I will ask you to heal me. Please don't kill Master Jiraiya!"

Snapped--

"You talk too much!"

Jiraiya got hit on the head, but he wasn't angry. He rubbed it with a smile.

As for traveling around the ninja world, I can go and take a look for you first.

"Orochimaru, what about you?"

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya in surprise. Why did he get involved?

"We are companions. Even if Team 7 is disbanded, we are still companions, the best companions."

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya, who was baring his teeth and giving a thumbs-up, and took a sip of the noodle soup at the corner of his mouth.

"As for me, I don't know. I'll probably do some research, or maybe join the ANBU."

"Oh~"

Jiraiya was thoughtful.

Although he didn't know what the Anbu looked like, just by hearing the name he could tell that they would get along well with Orochimaru.

"Hey, Jiraiya, tell me about yourself. You only asked us!"

Tsunade turned her head and looked at Jiraiya. She was also very touched by Jiraiya's words, "Even if Team 7 is disbanded, we are still companions."

"As for me~ I'm Jiraiya-sama. I'm so strong, of course I'm going out of the village to do missions hahahaha~"

Jiraiya laughed out loud, and even passers-by on the street were occasionally attracted by his flamboyant laughter.

"If you die outside, no one will collect your body."

Gu Zang interjected at an inopportune moment.

"Forehead..."

Jiraiya's laughter stopped abruptly.

"Hmm... Let me think about it. The body will most likely be thrown into the sea. After all, a passionate man like you needs to cool down even after death."

A big well-shaped character appeared on Jiraiya's head, but there was nothing he could do because Gu Zang was of a higher generation than him and he couldn't beat him.

Even with the summoning technique of Myoboku Mountain, Jiraiya can only summon Gamali now. He cannot summon large combat toads like Gamabunta, Gamahiro, and Gamaken.

Even if the psychic comes out...

Jiraiya thought of the time when Kozang was having fun while doing nothing during the Genin exam.

He felt that he might not be able to defeat Gu Zang.

I will endure!

However, the sad atmosphere was broken. The three of them ate ramen, talked about the childish situation in the ninja world, and joked about some interesting phenomena in the village.

Of course, this interesting phenomenon includes Jiraiya being caught peeping.

Just as the three of them were chatting animatedly, a child wearing baby pants slowly crawled towards the table.

“Hey! Hey~ Hey~”

The child couldn't speak yet and was very cute. Tsunade couldn't help but lift him up gently and touch the two sparse hairs on his head.

"Little guy, whose family are you from~"

"Hey~? Hey~"

The child pointed at himself, then at the tonkotsu ramen, then struggled to break free from Tsunade's hand and crawled towards the ramen.

"Hey! Don't steal Tsunade's ramen, you little brat!"

Jiraiya yelled.

Snapped--

Of course, he got slapped again by Tsunade.

"Don't yell at a child, Jiraiya!"

Jiraiya pouted and covered his head with his hands, looking aggrieved. He was clearly speaking up for Tsunade!

The child crawled towards Tsunade's ramen bowl, propped himself up, and looked at the steaming ramen in the bowl.

"Be careful of getting burned~"

Tsunade gave a warning, but the child probably didn't understand.

At this time, the owner of the ramen restaurant came out from behind.

"I was still wondering where Handbeat went, little Handbeat, why aren't you being nice?"

The middle-aged boss came to the table with a gentle look on his face and picked up the child. The child was waving his short arms in the air, pointing at the ramen and saying “Na~na~”

"You can see that he likes ramen very much~"

Tsunade touched her cheek and said to the boss with a smile.

"Of course, he's my son after all. He'll definitely inherit my ramen shop and make Naruto Ramen famous in the future~"

The boss looked very proud.

He held his son in his arms, touched his beaten head lovingly, and carried him back to the kitchen.

"What will my son be like? Will he inherit my medical ninjutsu..."

Tsunade rested her chin on her arm, leaned against the table, and looked at the sky.

"I...you will probably have a daughter, Tsunade~"

Jiraiya chuckled and came over.

"I'll inherit your beauty and weight~"

Snapped--
