Chapter 368 Teuchi's Trouble
"You finally ca back, I… I'm so worried about you."
i held Kakashi tightly, her face showed the joy after having a long-awaited reunion.
"Yeah, I'm back, sorry to make you worried." Kakashi said with a smile.
"It's okay, the most important thing is that you co back safely." i joyfully said.
"Thank you."
"Is things going well?" i asked.
"Well, it went well, that's why I ca back early." Kakashi smiled.
"Are you hurt?"
"Of course not."
Although Kakashi almost died, he won't tell this thing to i.
After all, he is fine now, and it's better than let i worried.
i didn't have any doubt after hearing this, after all, standing in front of her is a complete fine Kakashi. So it's enough for her.
The two people who hadn't seen each other for a long ti spent ti together for a while.
So the Godai Mizukage magically disappeared from Kirigakure for another night, making Ao worried for a while.
Fortunately, the next morning, i ca back with a very joyful smile on her face.
Although Ao did not know what was going on, he didn't ask i about it, after all, it's not a bad thing after seeing i showed such a joyful expression.
He is just a subordinate. So it will annoy i if Ao cause excessive intervention in her life.
At this ti, Kakashi finally returned to Konoha.
After telling Tsunade about his return, Kakashi left the Hokage Tower.
As for the mission arrangent, it will take a few days.
After all, after Kakashi left, things have been rescheduled. It would take a few more days to arrange the arrangent as Kakashi ca back to take over at this ti.
Naturally, Kakashi had no opinion on this. And he wished that this arrangent would take a few more days than expected.
When he walked around Konoha's street, although he only left for two years, Kakashi felt it has been a long ti.
The familiar feeling in Konoha makes Kakashi feel very warm.
Because it feels like ho here for him.
As he was walking, Kakashi felt a little hungry. After rubbing his stomach, Kakashi muttered: "It's been a long ti since I had ran."
With this idea, he naturally moved towards Ichiraku Ran.
It's still the sa small restaurant. As it's not lunch ti at this ti, there are no people in the restaurant.
Kakashi walked in and sat on the chair.
Seeing soone coming in, Teuchi who was sitting in the corner of the kitchen imdiately reacted. He got up, bent over and said, "I am very sorry, I am not doing business today. Please co back another day."
Kakashi was taken aback when he heard this, 'Why did I am so unlucky? After finally co here, did you have to go ho empty-handed?'
"Teuchi-san, it's been a long ti since I ca here, do you want to let go back like this?"
Teuchi was slightly surprised when he heard this as he felt the voice was so familiar.
When he looked up, he saw a man with silver-white hair.
"Kakashi? When did you co back?" Teuchi said with a happy expression.
Teuchi still rember Kakashi even if Kakashi hasn't co to his restaurant for a long ti.
After all, Kakashi is the Konoha's Hero. And Kakashi has been in his restaurant a lot since he was a child, and it is difficult to forget about him.
"I just ca back. As I miss the taste of your ran, I ca here to get so." Kakashi said with a smile.
Teuchi smiled and said: "Haha, you haven't co here for almost two years. So it makes sense that you miss the taste."
"Yeah, your ran is really delicious. But, Teuchi-san, why did you just say that you are not doing business today?" Kakashi asked doubtfully.
Hearing Kakashi's question, the joy on Teuchi's face began to fade, and his expression returned to the lancholy expression like before.
Upon seeing this, Kakashi knew that sothing was wrong.
"Teuchi-san? What happened? Tell if you have any troubles, if I can help, I will definitely help you," Kakashi said sincerely.
Teuchi sighed and said: "Kakashi, you can't help with this."
"Teuchi-san, you haven't said anything yet, so how do you know that I can't help?" Kakashi said helplessnessly.
Teuchi glanced at Kakashi for a while. He then stood up, walked into the back kitchen, brought out a bowl of noodles, and handed it to Kakashi.
Kakashi said, "Teuchi-san, what…"
"Just eat and see it for yourself." Teuchi said and did not directly answer Kakashi.
Kakashi looked at the bowl of noodles. Although there was still so steam left, it was not newly cooked. There was only half a bowl left, which ant that it have been eaten before.
However, after hearing Teuchi's words, Kakashi did not think much as he took a chopstick and took a bite.
Upon taking a bite, Kakashi's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't help but said, "It's delicious!"
Then he held up the bowl and drank a big mouthful of soup.
After drinking the soup, Kakashi exclaid: "This soup is also very good. It seems to be a bone soup that has been simred for a long ti, with so delicacies added! Teuchi-san, is this your newly developed ran? It tastes great! It is more delicious than before."
Kakashi praised it again, but Teuchi didn't look happy at all, instead he beca more gloomy.
Seeing that sothing was wrong, Kakashi asked: "What's wrong, Teuchi-san?"
Teuchi sighed and said: "Kakashi, I didn't make this ran."
"Huh? Teuchi-san didn't make this?" Kakashi was surprised when he heard this.
"Yeah, I didn't."
"That… what's going on?" Kakashi asked.
Teuchi did not directly answer Kakashi's question, but said: "Kakashi, do you know about cooking-nin?"
"Cooking-nin?" Kakashi stunned for a mont, and then said, "I know about them. Shinobi usually eats in the wilderness when they are on mission. Although there are such things as soldier pills, it is not delicious. Therefore, Shinobi hope to eat delicious food in the wilderness. After that, the existence called cooking-nin was born. They can take the ingredients from anywhere and cook it deliciously. Many Shinobi teams like to bring cooking-nin on their mission."
Teuchi nodded and said: "Yes, it is that cooking-nin."
"So why did you talk about this, Teuchi-san? Are you also cooking-nin?" Kakashi asked in surprise.
Teuchi shook his head and said, "No, I'm not. It's like this. When I was young, I learned the craft of making ran in a ran restaurant. When I was studying at that place, there was also another person, his na is Hakkaku. He is my junior brother. After I finished my study, I ca to Konoha and started a ran restaurant. And Hakkaku went to another Shinobi village and beca a cooking-nin."
"Did you an that your junior brother ca to find you, Teuchi-san? Isn't that a good thing?" Kakashi said.
Teuchi nodded and said: "Yes, my junior brother did co here to find , but it was not a good thing."
"Could it be… he ca to cause so troubles?" Kakashi speculated.
"It can be said like that. This bowl of ran was made by him." Teuchi said, pointing to the bowl of ran Kakashi had just eaten.
"So, does that an that your junior brother co here to challenge you? And the topic of the challenge is ran? Then… Teuchi-san, you lost?" Kakashi speculated.
Teuchi nodded with a gloomy expression and said: "Yeah, the mont I ate this ran, I knew I had lost."
