Chapter 37: Ramen
Haru walked around the Konoha and felt a bit amazed. He felt that this place was similar to the manga and didn't have that much difference.
Along the way, Haru thought about meeting the main character, unfortunately, he didn't see him, but he wasn't discouraged and knew that he could see him and other characters on Chuunin Exam in two days.
"Gin-san."
"Hmm?" Gintoki looked at Haru with a lazy expression.
"Can we have a spar later?" Haru asked. He felt that it was a good chance to train and to see Gintoki's skill.
Gintoki nodded and said, "Sure, but you need to give me your dango."
Haru twitched his lips and nodded with a heavy heart.
"....Sure."
Haru sighed. He knew that dango was a cheap price since he could have a spar with the famous Shiroyasha.
Gintoki nodded and said, "Good, we can have a spar later." He was very excited at that moment.
Yajima looked at Haru and said, "I will give you one of my dangos later."
"Thank you." Haru nodded with a smile. He felt glad that Yajima was very kind, but at the same time, he was wondering whether Yajima was treating him like his own grandchildren.
Yajima nodded and smiled. He really thought of Haru as his own grandchildren. He was single in his world and he didn't enter a guild since he entered the Magic Council. He didn't have a family which made his life quite dull, especially after all of his acquaintances on the Fairy Tail had disappeared on Tenrou Island, but he knew that they would return soon so he didn't need to worry that much.
Yajima also thought that he was glad to be invited to the Group Chat since it was a very fun group. Looking at everyone, he was wondering whether he should make his own guild in his world.
'Hmm...'
Yajima felt that it was necessary when he thought that there might be a quest to enter the Grand Magic Games in the future.
But then Yajima felt that it was too early since the numbers of people in the group chat were too low. He was wondering when the new members would join them.
---
They walked for half an hour until they had arrived in front of the Legendary Ramen Shop, Ichiraku.
"This is where everything begins," Haru said and didn't expect that he really had come to the Ichiraku.
"Have you become Chuunibyou like Kuroneko, Haru?" Gintoki asked.
"Hey!! I'm not Chuunibyou!" Kuroneko complained.
Haru shook his head and said, "No. I've always wanted to say something like that once." He wasn't Chuunibyou, but sometimes, he had this urge to do something that was similar to a Chuunibyou. He wasn't sure how to describe it, but he should call it...
Men's romance?
Yajima nodded and said, "Somehow, I understand."
"Alright, let's go enter the ramen shop," Tsunade said.
"You're not the one who pays! How can you be the first one who enters?" Haru asked.
"What?" Tsunade glared at Haru.
Haru hurriedly hid behind Shizune. "Shizune-san, help me."
"Shizune, hurry up and go away I need to teach this brat a lesson," Tsunade said and cracked her knuckles.
"Tsunade-Sama, please, don't make trouble." Shizune was helpless.
Haru was helpless against Tsunade. He understood why this woman was still single after she was 50 years old.
Tsunade's personality was just too terrible!
If this woman didn't have those humongous breasts, no one would make a move on her.
"Hmph!"
Tsunade snorted and felt annoyed, but she didn't punch Haru. "Let's enter."
Everyone looked at each other and nodded.
When they entered, they were welcomed by the owner of the Ichiraku, Teuchi.
"Welcome!!" Teuchi smiled, but then he was surprised when he saw Tsunade. "Ah, Tsunade-Sama!!"
Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I want miso ramen."
"Me too," Kuroneko said.
"I'm going to have sweet corn ramen," Gintoki said.
"I will have seafood ramen," Shizune said.
Teuchi nodded and wrote their orders, but then his eyes gazed on both Yajima and Haru. He could tell that this young man and old man were masters of culinary. It was his guts as a chef that told him about this matter. His eyes were in a blaze and wanted to show how good his ramen was.
"How about you two?
Haru and Yajima looked at the menu and made up their decision.
"Shio ramen." 2x
They ordered the same menu at the same time.
Teuchi nodded and said, "You two are not bad. I'll start to cook your order right away!" His big suddenly became bigger and let out a powerful aura.
"What is this? Is this a battle food manga?" Kuroneko felt speechless at Haru, Yajima, and Teuchi.
"Let them, when a man is serious about something, you shouldn't stop them," Gintoki said with a serious expression.
*Rattle!* *Rattle!* *Rattle!*
"You're the one who makes a loud noise here!!!" Kuroneko twitched her lips at Gintoki then sighed. "Am I the most normal in this group?"
"Look in the mirror, you Chuunibyou girl!!!" They said it at the same time.
They were talking to each other and Shizune asked them a lot of questions since they came from a different world. She wanted to know many things from their worlds and they also had asked a lot of things about this world.
Teuchi didn't hear their conversation since he put all of his focus on his ramen.
Haru felt a bit strange when he heard that it was alright to marry siblings in this world, but then suddenly he felt that his shoulder was tapped by someone.
"Hmm?"
"You can marry your sister here," Kuroneko said with a smile.
Haru twitched his lips and sighed. He was wondering when he was able to delete the video of "Yosogu no Sora" on the Group Chat.
"Your ramen is done!!" Teuchi said and served them ramen that they had ordered.
They looked at the ramen in front of them.
Haru sniffed the aroma of his ramen and suddenly was entranced.
'T - this is just the aroma!!!'
Haru took the chopsticks and he was ready to eat.
"So this is your ramen?" Yajima asked.
Teuchi nodded with a smile and said, "This recipe is from the hard work of my ancestor until today, please enjoy."
Haru nodded and he started to eat with everyone.
*Slurp!*
His eyes were wide open when he tasted it.
The soup was very clear but it was full of taste.
Haru could taste several things from this broth and the noodles were just too springy. He had to admit that this ramen was perfect.
*Slurp!* *Slurp!*
They didn't talk and their focus was only on the ramen in front of them.
Teuchi smiled and felt satisfied. He turned and said, "It wasn't much."
"Aaaaahhhh!!!"
Everyone entered the foodgasm at the same time!
