This convinced Kakashi that Ximen Yan was definitely not an ordinary person.
After all, most people couldn't eat that much food.
Kakashi narrowed his exposed eye, scrutinizing Ximen Yan and secretly guessing his identity.
Naruto looked at Ximen Yan with some envy, his azure eyes sparkling with longing.
If he has such a big appetite, he can eat his fill of ramen at Ichiraku-san's place.
Sasuke stood to the side, his expression remaining indifferent, but a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.
This was the first time he had ever seen someone who could eat so much; they could eat even more than Choji Akimichi.
Sakura Haruno couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"This person can eat so much! Where did all this food go?"
Naruto answered somewhat casually.
"Maybe he needs to eat so much to replenish his energy because his cultivation is too strenuous!"
Ximen Yan paid no attention to their conversation and continued to put ramen into his mouth.
Making ramen by hand is hard work, but I couldn't help but smile.
For a chef, if customers can eat it, it naturally means that his or her cooking is delicious.
So he didn't mind at all that Ximen Yan ate a lot.
However, after trying all the ramen...
Ximenyan did not continue.
For him, these ramen noodles made with ordinary ingredients don't provide much energy.
He could eat for days and nights and still not be full.
Naturally, there's no need to keep eating it.
"Uncle, can you tell me how you managed to eat so much ramen?"
Naruto looked at Ximen Yan and couldn't help but ask.
"Huh? Uncle?"
Ximen Yan's expression changed slightly, and then he glared fiercely at Naruto.
"Kid, watch your mouth."
"I'm only a few years older than you."
"Call me uncle! Do I look that old?"
"Are those two eyeballs on your face just for venting your anger?"
"What an unlovable little brat."
Although he is indeed older than Naruto.
But it's definitely not going to reach the level of an old man!
Upon hearing Ximen Yan's words, Naruto couldn't help but scratch his head.
I think I did call it the wrong way.
However, Naruto suddenly realized what was happening and glared at Ximen Yan, arguing loudly.
"I'm not a little kid anymore, I'm a ninja now."
"Are those two eyeballs on your face just for venting your anger?"
He heard Naruto use his words to refute him.
Ximen Yan did not reply immediately, but stood up and walked to Naruto.
At this moment, Kakashi, who was standing nearby, had already become alert.
They were worried that Ximen Yan would attack Naruto.
Then Kakashi looked at Ximen Yan and stretched out a hand, measuring it on Naruto's head.
Then he made some cuts around his waist.
"Tsk tsk...just up to my waist."
"So short, and you still say you're not a little kid."
Ximen Yan looked at Naruto with a teasing expression and said.
Sometimes the truth is the most hurtful.
Ximen Yan's actions left Naruto stunned on the spot.
After realizing what was happening, Naruto immediately argued loudly.
"I'm not a little kid!"
"I... I just haven't grown taller yet!"
As he spoke, Naruto glanced at Sakura Haruno beside him.
He felt that his image in Sakura Haruno's eyes had been persecuted.
Seeing Naruto's subtle movements, Ximen Yan naturally guessed what Naruto was thinking, but he pretended not to know.
Instead, he spoke in a very serious tone.
"Hey kid, stop looking. This little girl is much taller than you."
Ximen Yan's words were like a sharp sword piercing Naruto's chest.
At this moment, Naruto felt that his future was bleak and he didn't even have the strength to argue.
This is something he's always been reluctant to talk about.
Seeing Naruto's dejected expression, Sakura Haruno thought for a moment and then spoke.
"That Naruto may be a bit short, but he's still quite reliable."
"And Naruto will grow taller later."
Although she didn't particularly like Naruto, who kept bothering her.
But they are, after all, a small team.
At this point, it's certainly not wise to kick someone when they're down!
"Sakura!"
Naruto looked at Sakura Haruno with a deeply moved expression.
Sakura actually spoke up for me, does that mean she likes me? Should I say yes...?
Sakura Haruno couldn't help but shiver; she had a feeling that Naruto was thinking something bad.
After slightly provoking Naruto.
Seeing that Naruto was immersed in emotion, he didn't say anything more.
After paying the bill without hesitation, Ximen Yan left Yile Ramen Restaurant.
........................
After Ximen Yan left, Kakashi also paid the bill.
"You guys take your time eating, I have things to do."
After giving his instructions, Kakashi went straight out.
He planned to meet up with Matt Kai and then investigate Simon Yan's whereabouts together.
Seeing this, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura exchanged glances.
"Should we..."
After exchanging a few words, the three of them quickly finished their ramen.
"Alright, shorty, we should go."
Sasuke put down his chopsticks and said.
Kakashi left in such a hurry just now, he must have thought that there was something wrong with Ximen Yan before.
This made Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura Haruno want to follow and see what was going on.
Perhaps we'll get to see Kakashi in action.
"I'm not a short, arrogant Sasuke."
Naruto glared menacingly at Sasuke and said.
He even wanted to have a one-on-one real battle with Sasuke.
However, before Naruto could even make a move, he was immediately suppressed by Sakura Haruno.
"Stop fooling around, Naruto, let's hurry up and catch up with Kakashi-sensei."
Hearing Sakura Haruno say that.
Naruto had no choice but to give up on causing trouble for Sasuke.
Of course, Naruto was determined to show Sasuke his true power later.
Chapter 561 Ximen Yan's Barbecue Stand
Walking on the streets of Konoha.
Although Ximen Yan's expression remained unchanged, he was somewhat speechless inside.
He simply wanted to trade some ingredients in Konoha.
As a result, he was first followed by Might Guy, and later Kakashi joined in.
Now even Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura Haruno are following him.
If he had wandered around a little longer...
Could it be that a group of Konoha ninjas are following behind him?
That seems very likely!
After all, Might Guy and Kakashi hid themselves quite well and weren't discovered.
However, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura Haruno's hidden abilities are not that great.
Of course, Kakashi had already noticed that Naruto and his two companions were following them.
He did not show himself to let Naruto and the others leave.
With him and Might Guy there, Kakashi was confident he could protect the three of them.
So Kakashi simply let Naruto and the other two follow along, considering it a training opportunity for them.
Kakashi may feel at ease, but the other ninjas might not.
Several passing ninjas have already spotted the three of them.
This also drew more attention to Ximen Yan.
Naruto and Sasuke are particularly special cases.
Ximen Yan felt that someone might have already reported the news to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Somewhat helpless, Ximen Yan decided not to wander around anymore.
Let's get down to business.
He simply wanted the people of Konoha to know about his ingredients.
Obviously, it's not that easy.
Fortunately, Ximen Yan quickly came up with a solution.
After asking a passerby.
Ximen Yan then arrived near the ninja academy.
