106. The so-called apologies and ridiculous hopes
"I'll have a barbecued pork noodle too."
Mian Ma said softly.
Ichiraku ramen.
As the most famous delicacy in the original book, after coming to this world, Mian Ma naturally came to eat, of course, this is also due to the fact that he knows that the owner of Yile Ramen will not dislike and reject Mian Ma as much as those ordinary people, just like other guests, that is, treat Mian Ma as an ordinary child.
Mian Ma is naturally willing to come to this store.
This is also the only place where you can eat out in the 12 years before you graduate, of course, you have to pick no one else to go in, and every time you eat quickly, once you sense that someone else is coming, you will leave immediately early, it doesn't matter if you are grateful or not.
People just treat themselves as normal.
It's just that in such a ninja village, the boss's approach is already very commendable, and it can be regarded as very friendly.
The face is numb to the extent of being moved.
But at least in my heart, I definitely don't want to affect other people's business because of myself.
The boss of Yile Ramen naturally also knows Mianma, for Mianma's experience and situation, this boss is actually a little pitiful, and there is also a little bit of feeling that some other people are a little excessive, Mianma is just a child after all, but he can understand those neighbors, you must know that in the chaos 12 years ago, but countless people have lost their relatives and friends, such a hatred is difficult to contain.
Not to mention that the boss is just an ordinary person.
It is impossible to have any say and ability in this regard, at most, it can only be secretly added to the noodles when the noodles are eating.
This can be regarded as a kind of care for him.
"Well, add two more servings of barbecued pork, Jiraiya-sama, please wait a while."
After the boss bowed again, he immediately turned around and prepared ramen for three.
Not much.
Three steaming servings of ramen, which were clearly far beyond the usual amount, were placed in front of the trio.
"I'm moving!"
Naruto, who was sitting in the middle seat, immediately had his eyes lit up, and after he couldn't wait to say this sentence, he began to devour.
It seemed that for Naruto, all the food in this world was not worth a bowl of fragrant ramen.
It's just a few minutes away.
This bowl of ramen, which most ordinary people may not have eaten, went all into Naruto's stomach.
And the numbness on the side is not far behind.
He has a considerable amount of food, but today he has practiced all day, a bowl of ramen, and the bottom is seen in the blink of an eye.
Jirai, who was on the side, was also watching Naruto and Mi Ma's almost synchronous dining actions, and a touch of remembrance unconsciously appeared in the depths of his pupils.
Same redhead, same blonde.
It has a somewhat similar face to Watergate, and a somewhat similar appearance to Jiu Sinai.
At that moment.
Zilai also felt as if he had returned to the time when he had eaten together at the home of one of his disciples more than ten years ago.
'Has it been 12 years?' ’
Jiraiya couldn't help but think silently in his heart.
It's as if it were yesterday.
12 years ago, when he received the news that his disciple and his wife had died in battle, he didn't believe his ears at all, in his opinion, his talented disciple would lead Konoha for at least twenty or thirty years, right? How could he die so easily?
He doesn't believe it, or he doesn't want to.
But when he returned to Konoha, what he saw was Mizumon, who had become completely cold and stiff, the corpses of the Kushina couple, and the two brothers who had just been born, Naruto and Miami, who were still in their infancy.
At that moment, Jiraiya's heart was undoubtedly full of sadness, and looking at the young face and Naruto brothers, Jiraiya was even more full of pity.
If you want to say that Jiraiya never had the idea of returning to Konoha Hidden Village and taking care of Naruto and the Mama brothers in person, it must be false.
It's just that in the end, he chose to leave Konoha again for some reason, maybe because of the prophecy of the ridiculous 'son of prophecy' in Myoki Mountain, or maybe because of a series of words from Sarutobi Sun.
But in any case, Zilai has evaded his responsibility after all.
That's right, responsibility.
Different from other people's identities.
He is also a real mentor of Watergate.
Even in the Hokage's world, such a master-apprentice relationship is similar to that of father and son.
Just like Naruto's name for Jiraiya in this life, Jiraiya is also the face of numbness, Naruto's 'grandfather' in the essence of the word!
But what? In the past 12 years, has Jilai fulfilled his obligations and responsibilities as a grandfather?
Oh, and that means on the side of the hemp.
After all, Naruto has the aura of 'Four Generations of Hokage'.
In the past 12 years, Jiraiya has also returned to Konoha occasionally, but he only went to see Naruto, not to visit him, not once.
It's also because of this that Zilai is full of guilt on the other side.
But as some fans in the previous life said, if Jiraiya knew about Naruto's childhood, but didn't take care of it, then Jilai was bad, and if he didn't know Naruto's childhood at all, it would be stupid, and hopelessly stupid.
Either way.
The responsibility of Jiraiya cannot be shirked.
Naturally, he didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, and even if he knew, he would only scoff at it.
Apologetic?
This emotion is always the most extravagant and useless.
To paraphrase a sentence from his previous life.
If an apology is useful, what else do you need the police to do?' ’
Mian Ma is no longer the self he was when he first came to this world.
The ridiculous filter of the past life has long been abandoned by the face of numbness.
Now, he looks at anyone in this world, and there is only one criterion for judging him, his own people who are willing to walk side by side or the enemies who stand in his way.
Therefore, the face of Ma looks at Jiraiya, that is, the same as Kakashi and the others, as a stranger, and what kind of attitude they will have in the future depends on what their choice is.
Of course, this is basically predictable.
"Mianma, the direction you just came to is the mountain on the west side of the village, where are you going to do something?"
After you have eaten and drunk to your heart's content.
Step out of the storefront.
Naruto patted his little belly with a full burp and satisfaction, then tilted his head to look at the numb face, and asked with a hint of curiosity.
"Ah, I'm cultivating there, isn't there still a while left for the third round? I want to be as strong as I can. ”
Mian Ma replied with a smile.
"Oooh! Cultivation, indeed, that guy Sasuke was also taken away by Kakashi's big brother to do some cultivation, and I also plan to let Grandpa Jiraiya guide me in my cultivation, eh, face numb, why don't you come with me, okay? Grandpa Jiraiya!? ”
