The Senju Remnants Of The Uchiha Clan

Chapter 41: My Ramen Shop Will Be Doomed Sooner Or Later



Rōran is located in the center of the desert within the Land of Wind. It is a standard country within a country and has a lot of business dealings with the Village Hidden in the Sand, mainly selling puppet parts.

After the outbreak of the Shinobi World War, Konoha's spies once investigated the Land of Wind, and countless semi-finished puppets were stockpiled in Rōran city. 

Konoha's top leaders were worried that these puppets would be used in the war with Konoha.

The investigation revealed something wrong.

"Source of the Ryūmyaku?"

"Yes, it is rumored that there is a Source of the Ryūmyaku that can grant infinite Chakra under Rōran. Our reconnaissance ninjas decided to sneak into Rōran after receiving the news, and then… They disappeared."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pinched the bridge of his nose, his tone sounding a little tired.

Konoha is currently caught in the quagmire of the Shinobi World War and should not be overly concerned about these messy rumors, but the two keywords, Infinite Chakra and Stockpiling puppets, parts… Rōran is not scary, but if these are obtained by the Village Hidden in the Sand, it would be equivalent to having an extra-tailed beast-level Chakra and puppet army!

Rōran is surrounded by the Land of Wind on all sides. In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, this is no different from being served on the dining table of the Village Hidden in the Sand.

"I see… Then who will be the candidate for this mission?"

"Minato, you are the captain, and there are Shibi Aburame of the Aburame Clan, Choza Akimichi of the Akimichi Clan, and… Well, let's let this little guy act together and treat it as a test for him to become a Jonin."

Hiruzen Sarutobi handed a file to Minato.

"Shiratori Uchiha? I've heard of this name. He's a part of Shibi's team, a genius ninja from the Uchiha Clan…" 

Minato picked up the file and glanced at it, then he was a little surprised: "He's not even ten years old yet, and he's already been recommended to become a Jonin? That's amazing!"

Seeing this, Minato suddenly remembered something.

"Hokage-sama, I told you before about Kakashi Hatake…"

"Kakashi, I've already approved that. He's about to become the youngest Jonin in Konoha's history… Well, at least until Shiratori Uchiha becomes a Jonin."

… … …

"You're taking a Jonin exam soon?!"

With a head of non-mainstream soft long hair, Arata Uchiha started with a pair of dead fish eyes while his lips trembled.

God damn it, he's only a Chunin at the age of sixteen! And this kid who he watched grow up since he was a child has become a Jonin?!

"Not yet."

"That's good…"

"It will probably be in two days."

"… I really want to beat you up right now, you bastard!"

"What?" 

Shiratori glanced at him: "Chunin Arata-senpai, are you going to beat me? You decide the time and place."

"Ahahahahaha… I was just saying it casually, Shiratori; please don't take it seriously."

Toru, who was eating fish balls next to him, rolled his eyes, not wanting to admit that this embarrassing guy was his brother.

You know you can't win, but you still dare to say that…

Shiratori met the two brothers on the way to Setsuna's house.

After leaving the Hokage building, he went straight to his own ramen shop and was warmly welcomed by his father, Toyotaka.

"You little brat, do you see this stick? If you ever go on some dangerous mission without telling me again, I'll use it to break your legs!"

"I was wrong, but I still want to say this, Dad, I will be a Jonin soon. With my physical fitness… Even if I stand there and let you hit me as you please, I will probably be fine even if that stick breaks."

"Yeah, that makes sense! So I'm going to break my own legs and then frame you for it, saying that you're an unfilial son who beat up your own father and put you in the Konoha Military Police Force; how about that?"

"… As expected of you, I'm convinced."

Shiratori was convinced, completely convinced.

Still as unreliable as ever… It was hard for him to imagine that his father was actually from the same clan as Madara Uchiha…

Toyotaka, who was better at talking than his son, was satisfied and sat back down in a daze. 

Then he instantly became what Shiratori saw when he first entered the room—slumped in the chair, like a salted fish that had lost its dream…

Shiratori walked forward curiously and saw the flyer on the table.

It turned out that Ramen Ichiraku finally bought its own store and opened it grandly after renovation.

The flyer is filled with all kinds of grand opening promotions.

"It's over; our ramen shop is completely finished…" Toyotaka moaned weakly, his eyes dull.

"Actually, I don't think this has much to do with our family." The corners of Shiratori's mouth twitched.

"Why?"

"Think about it, our ramen shop doesn't have many people coming to eat. No matter how popular Ramen Ichiraku is, it won't affect our situation… It's like lowering the difficulty of the Academy graduation exam. What does it have to do with the last in the class? You won't graduate anyway…"

Toyotaka stood up, looked at his beloved son, and then…

"You little bastard! Get out! Get out of my ramen shop!"

Shiratori, who was kicked out of the ramen shop, didn't mind at all. He patted his butt and went to find old man Setsuna.

Calculating the time, it's time for lunch now, so he can go to the old man's house and have a good meal.

If you think about it carefully, even I, the young owner of the ramen shop, like to eat at other people's homes. He can only say that it would not be unfair if their ramen shop went bankrupt one day.

Shiratori walked through the commercial street of the clan, greeting everyone warmly along the way. When he arrived at the door of Setsuna's house, he saw the two brothers hiding not far away…

"So, what are you two doing here?"

"It's like this…" 

Arata was a little embarrassed: "Toru and I were assigned to the Konoha Military Police Force."

"That's great. Congratulations."

"But we don't want to go!" Toru said: "We want to go to the front line, so we want to talk to elder Setsuna…"

"Why don't you go inside and talk! What's the point of standing here?" Shiratori was puzzled.

"I mentioned it once yesterday, but elder Setsuna threw us out. He said that idiots like us would die if we went to the battlefield. We should first gain experience in the Konoha Military Police Force."

"The old man is right."

Hearing this, Arata immediately became unhappy.

"Hey, Shiratori, what do you mean by this? I'm very strong now! If you don't believe me, you can try my strength." 

"Although I can't beat you, I can still beat others! I heard that you have killed several enemies with Genjutsu? It just so happens that I also have some ideas about the Genjutsu of the Sharingan-"

Arata Uchiha, Sharingan, and Genjutsu, these factors put together, seemed to trigger some keywords, and a figure flew out from Setsuna Uchiha's residence. The three of them saw Yashiro walking towards in front of them with an expressionless face.

"Ahhh!" 

Toru was startled.

"Did you just mention Genjutsu?" Yashiro put his face close to Arata, looking up, down, left, and right at him…

"I don't; you heard it wrong!" 

Looking at Yashiro's terrifying expression as if he was going to gouge out his eyes if he disagreed with something, Arata subconsciously took several steps back.

"That's good… Remember, you can basically say goodbye to Genjutsus from now on. You are not allowed to use them!"

It seems that the time when he was tricked by the two brothers a few years ago left an indelible psychological trauma on Yashiro…

After threatening Arata, Yashiro turned to Shiratori with a smile: "Shiratori is back? I arrived at the village two days earlier than you. I have already told elder Setsuna about your performance. He is very satisfied! Come on, follow me in."

"That…" Toru's weak voice sounded.

"Oh, I almost forgot!" 

Yashiro slapped his forehead: "You two brothers are here for yesterday's incident, right?"

"Yes, we—"

"I know you don't want to go to the Konoha Military Police Force, and elder Setsuna has agreed to your request."

"Really? Then I—"

"Congratulations, elder Setsuna wants the two of you to report to Naka Shrine tomorrow to guard the shrine for half a year."

"Ah?!"
