Naruto Pararel 06

Title: Ichiraku in the Empire

Naruto turned his head and saw Kankuro standing beside a cold white metal box, slowly opening its door. A mechanical arm took out a can of blue drink from inside and tossed it gently towards him.

Naruto quickly caught it and said, “This is a drink?”

“Yeah, a drink that can make you feel happy after drinking it, a must-have at home.”

After Kankuro finished speaking, he took out four more cans, tossing one each to Yamato, Sakura, Sai, and Mukade, then opened a bottle for himself and gulped it down greedily, letting out a sigh of relief.

“Hmm... it really tastes good, cold, refreshing, better than any drink I’ve had before.”

Naruto didn’t think much and also took a gulp.

“Lord Kankuro... you said earlier that this aircraft with a speed of five thousand kilometers per hour is used for domestic travel?”

Yamato held the drink, not taking a sip, but instead said with a rather serious expression.

“Of course, but only the rich own these. Ordinary people can’t afford to ride them. If ordinary people want to travel outside the city, to another continent for tourism, they usually take the subway. That thing’s speed is much slower, only about two or three hundred kilometers per hour.”

While speaking, Kankuro walked towards the leather sofa and sat down.

“A speed of two or three hundred kilometers per hour... only?” Yamato muttered.

Buzz...

Just then, the aircraft vibrated gently.

The next second, the ‘glass’ surrounding them became blurry.

Naruto, Sakura, Yamato, Sai, and the others knew that the aircraft had begun to fly quickly!

However... this is too stable, isn’t it?

Sitting inside something so fast, they didn’t feel the slightest bit of shaking?

Is this the technology of the Shinobi Empire?

And it’s only for civilian use?

Yamato was experiencing the immense difference in technology for the first time.

“Kanpachiro!”

Kankuro, who was lying on the sofa, called out loudly.

“I’m here! Master!”

A light and agile voice sounded, surprising Naruto and his three companions as well as Mukade.

“Who’s talking?”

Naruto exclaimed in shock, looking left and right.

“That’s Kanpachiro! My artificial intelligence servant. You can think of it as a kind of invisible summoning beast.”

“Kanpachiro! Turn on the television.” Kankuro said again.

A black screen in front of them suddenly lit up.

A man wearing a white chef’s uniform, looking rather old, was speaking fluently:

“Ask why I can make the best ramen? The answer is of course just one word! Heart!”

“Because I make ramen with my heart! Constantly researching, trying all sorts of combinations, only then can I produce the best ramen! In making ramen, the broth is the most important, then the firmness of the noodles...”

“Eh, isn’t that Uncle Teuchi? Why is he on television?”

Naruto and the others weren’t surprised by the television.

Because in their world, this thing already existed, as well as refrigerators and other items.

“What’s so strange about that? He’s the most famous ramen master on the Fire Continent right now, the Ichiraku Ramen chain has more than one hundred and fifty branches all over the world.” Kankuro said flatly.

“Woah! Woah! Amazing! It really is Uncle Teuchi! I wonder which one tastes better, the Ichiraku Ramen in this world or the Ichiraku Ramen in our world! I really want to try it!”

While speaking, Naruto unconsciously swallowed his saliva.

“There will be a chance.” Kankuro replied casually.

“Kanpachiro, change the channel.”

Beep...

“No! I can’t go on! Guy-sensei! I really can’t go on anymore... I... I need to rest for a while...”

“You all fools! What do you think martial arts is? Have you forgotten the Shinobi Emperor’s words? Practicing martial arts is like rowing against the current, if you don’t advance, you retreat!”

“Follow me! If you can’t keep up, add a thousand jump rope exercises! Faster! Faster! Faster!”

On the screen, a group of men wearing green tight-fitting suits looked extremely tired as they followed a young man also wearing a green tight-fitting suit, with thick eyebrows and round eyes, constantly complaining.

In response, the young man with thick eyebrows and round eyes turned his head with a hint of anger and scolded them.

“This... Lee?” Naruto stared at the young man with thick eyebrows and round eyes, and unconsciously exclaimed.

“Lee is so strong here.” Sakura was also surprised.

“I don’t know who the Lee you’re talking about is named. But this person’s name is Rock Lee, the disciple of the martial arts maniac Might Guy.” Kankuro said.

“The martial arts maniac Might Guy? The thick-browed teacher here is actually called a martial arts maniac? Hmm... considering his past craziness, if his character is the same in this world, that nickname doesn’t seem wrong. The thick-browed teacher in this world must be very strong, right?”

“Of course... he is the person with the highest level of martial arts besides the Shinobi Emperor.” Kankuro’s expression was rather serious.

“As expected of the thick-browed teacher, amazing!”

Naruto grinned and praised.

“Kanpachiro, change the channel.”

Beep...

Tut! Tut! Tut! Tut tut tut...

A dynamic music played.

In the middle of the stage, a woman with long blonde hair, wearing a purple dress that exposed her stomach, and two other beautiful women, were performing a dynamic dance.

Beautiful pieces of lyrics came out of the blonde-haired woman’s mouth:

“Red lanterns light up one by one... the rhythm of celebration has become the code...”

“This... this this this is Ino?”

Naruto pointed at the blonde-haired woman on the television and shouted in surprise.

“She is Yamanaka Ino, the lead vocalist of the famous music group on the Fire Continent, [Gokuraku Butoudan] (Nirvana Dance Troupe).” Kankuro explained.

“Woah! Woah! Amazing! Ino in this world actually became a big star? Hahaha... amazing!” Naruto laughed loudly.

“Tsk!”

Seeing Ino on the stage, Sakura unconsciously made a strange sound, a slightly displeased expression visible on her face:

“That... can you tell me, what am I doing in this world?”

“You? Haruno Sakura... don’t know.”

Kankuro thought for a moment and slowly shook his head.

“...”

Hearing that, Sakura didn’t want to talk anymore.

Her fists clenched!

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Time passed by minute by second.

Kankuro watched television, and when he was hungry, a mechanical doll delivered food.

The food was very delicious, better than anything ever eaten in Konoha, making Naruto and his group feel happy.

Sakura couldn’t even help but sigh:

“This life, it’s so comfortable... if I can live in such a good house in the future, that would truly be the pinnacle of life’s happiness.”

Hmm... of course, it had to be with Sasuke.

“Heh... this is the Shinobi Empire founded by His Majesty.”

Hearing that, Kankuro said proudly.

Sai beside him saw that and unconsciously said, “Ninjas can’t constantly be in pleasure, it will make them lethargic.”

“Hmm?”

Kankuro glanced at Sai sarcastically, with a hint of disdain:

“Can’t constantly be in pleasure, become lethargic? What a ridiculous statement. Why should the strong become stronger than others? Isn’t it to enjoy more privileges?”

“You said you are people from the era of ninja villages in another world. I don’t even know why you let a group of ordinary people called daimyo ride on your heads, truly very laughable.”

“And... you are weak, not even as strong as a group of ordinary guards, you have no right to say the word ‘lethargic’. It will make people laugh.”
