Chapter 174 Konoha's Way of Hospitality
The Ninja World, Konoha Village.
Following Tsunade, Gu Yue Na arrived at this unfamiliar village.
Everything here was completely different from the world he had lived in before. Gu Yuena found everything here, from the houses to the clothes, very novel.
The villagers were also filled with curiosity when they saw this stunningly beautiful girl with long silver hair and a cool demeanor.
"Oh, beautiful lady from out of town, would you do me the honor of having a drink with me?"
A slightly tipsy, white-haired middle-aged man walked up to Gu Yuena. He reeked of alcohol, and his cloudy eyes looked her up and down.
Without saying a word, Gu Yuena frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes, as clear as autumn water, glaring fiercely at the middle-aged man.
She was originally the Silver Dragon King, and even without using her soul power, her innate domineering spirit and killing intent were enough to intimidate all things.
"Ah!" Jiraiya was startled by this glance, realizing that the girl in front of him was no ordinary person.
"From, I have come!"
Tsunade roared angrily and slammed her fist down, smashing him into the ground, leaving only his head sticking out, which looked extremely comical.
Tsunade's incredible strength startled the passersby, who quickly returned to their rooms.
However, despite being hit by such a powerful blow, Jiraiya only suffered a bump on his head.
"This is my guest. You are not allowed to make jokes like this again, do you hear me!" Tsunade said somewhat angrily, but her eyes held a hint of apology as she looked at Gu Yuena.
"Sorry, that's just how she is, but she's not a bad person, so don't be afraid."
Jiraiya emerged from the ground as if nothing had happened, scratching his head and saying, "Sorry, sorry, I was just joking."
"Honestly, Tsunade, can't you give me some face in front of outsiders?"
After saying that, Jiraiya looked at Kozuki, his smile gradually freezing and turning into a serious expression. He said in a deep voice, "Then, I'll get straight to the point."
"Miss from out of town, who are you? I have never seen anyone like you before."
With such a powerful gaze and sense of oppression, Jiraiya was certain that her strength was definitely no less than that of a Kage... or even surpassed that of a Kage.
If it were an enemy, the entire village would be in danger, and Jiraiya would never allow that to happen.
"After all, this is a ninja village. It is indeed very dangerous for us to accept people of unknown origin. Please understand."
Sensing the hostility emanating from the middle-aged man, Gu Yuena knew that if she said the wrong thing, she might be attacked by Jiraiya.
Gu Yuena quickly recalled Su Chen's memories and cautiously said, "I come from another continent overseas, and I don't know much about what you're talking about."
She recounted what she had seen and heard in Douluo Continent, casually mentioning the culture and interesting stories there, while omitting details about being a soul beast.
After all, she had read Su Chen's memories and knew a bit about Gu Yuena from the Ninja World. Her words, which were three parts false and seven parts true, naturally left the others confused.
The girl before them, with her stunning beauty and the strange ninja beast, clearly possessed an extraordinary identity.
"My lords, there's no need for such trouble. Just hand her over to the Dark Guard, and they'll have a way to force her to tell the truth!" One of the onlookers stepped forward and started clamoring.
"Yes, such a suspicious person, if he is a spy infiltrated into our Konoha Village, then we will be in trouble."
"Or, we could use a secret technique to directly probe his memories."
"Wow, what... what do you want to do!" Tianmeng trembled with fear and shrank behind Gu Yuena.
Sensing the hostility of those around her, Gu Yuena's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and her cold voice was tinged with anger: "You are welcome to try."
Soul power cannot be used, but through the Chakra Seed, a portion of soul power can still be converted into chakra. Although it is somewhat reduced, it can still reach the level of Super Kage, which is not far from the level of Six Paths.
However, her application of chakra was limited to brute force, and she was too unfamiliar with ninjutsu.
But such strength is enough to blast everyone present into dust!
Even in her anger, she did not act rashly.
The reason is simply that this world is the world Su Chen once lived in, and he has not taken action for the time being only out of respect for Su Chen.
"Lady Tsunade, your guest is truly extraordinary..."
The murderous intent and terrifying chakra caused those around to break out in a cold sweat and tremble involuntarily.
Tsunade, sensing Jiraiya's hesitation, said, "Alright, all of you, step back!"
Tsunade roared, and all the doubting voices instantly disappeared.
"Everyone, don't worry, this girl meant no harm. You can all go home now."
Even Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, said this, so these people have even less reason to say anything more.
"I'm sorry, this is a ninja village, and we're currently at war, so we're prone to being suspicious of outsiders."
"Sigh, I hope you don't take it to heart."
"Oh, by the way, if it's convenient, you can stay in the village."
"Jingyin, why don't you take this child out for a walk, so he can get to know the village better?"
As Tsunade spoke, she glanced at the woman in black beside her who was holding a small piglet.
"Yes, I understand, Lady Tsunade."
"By the way, I still don't know your name." Shizune said with a smile, her voice gentle, like that of a kind older sister next door.
"Gu Yuena." Gu Yuena simply uttered three words in a cold and indifferent tone.
It seemed that the anger she felt from what had just happened had not completely dissipated.
"Oh, that's quite different from our name style." Shizune said gently as always, "Let me show you around Konoha Village."
Along the way, Jingyin patiently explained everything that had just happened and the war to Gu Yuena, and introduced her to various things and items in the village.
"Oh, I really envy you. You're so spotless and beautiful, just like a fairy living in the forest in a fairy tale." Shizune said, looking at the silent Gu Yuena.
"However, because of the long-term fighting here, the atmosphere may be a bit gloomy, and it's normal that you might find it a little uncomfortable."
Gu Yuena looked around at the buildings, both unfamiliar and familiar...
Indeed, he did come from the forest, but such a place is far removed from the beautiful legends of fairy tales and elves.
Slaughter and slaughter often take place in places like this, which are not much better than this.
As I walked, a fragrant aroma wafted over.
The words "Ichiraku Ramen" caught Gu Yuena's beautiful purple eyes. There was a constant stream of customers, and the business seemed to be booming.
Gu Yuena swallowed hard.
Having lost her soul power to provide energy, she is now not much different from an ordinary girl.
"Gurgle..."
The sounds coming from her belly made Gu Yuena's face instantly turn as red as an apple.
"Well……"
"No...it's alright, let's hurry up and go. I...I'm a little tired and want to rest..."
The girl's shy and adorable appearance made even Shizune's eyes sparkle.
"Oh dear, how could I have forgotten that?"
As he spoke, ignoring Gu Yuena's refusal, he pulled her toward the small noodle shop.
"Hmm, there's food!" Tianmeng's eyes lit up, and she quickly followed to freeload a meal.
As Shizune walked, she introduced the restaurant, saying, "This is the most famous ramen restaurant in our village, so don't refuse. I have to show you all the hospitality I can today."
Gu Yuena nodded and then shook her head, but Tianmeng behind her was drooling so much that it was practically a river. Gu Yuena was disgusted and gave him a hard knock on the head, making Tianmeng cover his head and cry.
Shizune watched this scene with a faint smile.
So he continued to persuade her.
"I hope Gu Yuena will give me a chance, otherwise Lady Tsunade will say that I am not hospitable enough."
Seeing that Shizune had brought up Tsunade, Gu Yuena finally relented.
The group lifted the curtain and went inside. The first thing they saw was the warm and simple furnishings. Shouda and his daughter were busy in the kitchen.
"Uncle, three extra-large bowls of flavorful char siu, no onions!"
The person arrived before the voice.
The daughter of the manga artist peeked out from the kitchen and, upon seeing that it was the Hokage's secretary, greeted him warmly.
"It's Lady Shizune. Please have a seat. Your ramen will be ready soon."
"Dad, three extra-large char siu with added flavor."
She called out to the kitchen.
"Alright, here come three extra-large bowls of ramen."
Typed back by hand.
A short while later, a squinty-eyed man wearing a white chef's hat walked out of the kitchen, carrying three steaming bowls of extra-large ramen.
This is none other than Teuchi, who is known as "Otsutsuki Ichiraku".
"Please enjoy your meal, esteemed guests."
After putting down the bowl, he went back to the kitchen to continue his work, believing that making ramen was the only right way to go.
The three of them sat down and looked down to see a bowl of ramen that was as big as a rice bowl sitting there.
Char siu, fish balls, and other side dishes are neatly arranged on the golden noodles, and the rich broth coats each noodle, which in turn soaks up the broth.
After handing the chopsticks to Tianmeng and Guyuena, Jingyin routinely announced, "I'm about to start eating."
Tianmeng didn't care about any of that; she just started eating in a dog-chewed manner and buried herself in her food.
Gu Yuena ate the ramen in her bowl in small bites, her movements appearing very elegant.
However, it needs to be slowed down by at least five times...
However, the happiness of slurping noodles still showed on her delicate face.
Shizune watched Gu Yuena eat noodles with a look of utter delight, and for a moment she thought of the boy who used to like eating noodles in small bites.
"If only Lord Su Chen were still here..."
Upon hearing the name Su Chen, Gu Yuena was suddenly startled, her heart clenching violently.
"Cough cough..."
