Chapter 17 Cheer Up Noodles (Ch 17)

Chapter 17 Ichiraku Ramen

Uchiha Qiushan nodded after hearing Shisui’s analysis.

“Yes, then I will appear at this time, use this incident to make trouble, and make demands to move the Uchiha clan land away from here, to a place far away from Konoha Village. In order to appease us, the Third Hokage will definitely agree, and then we will create a barrier ourselves, so that we can escape the surveillance of the Anbu and the Root.”

Uchiha Shisui frowned when he heard Qiu Shan’s words and raised an objection:

“But the Third Hokage and Danzo are not fools. They are very shrewd and I will definitely not be able to hide it from them if I fake my death.”

Hearing Shisui’s objection, Uchiha Qiushan looked at him meaningfully.

“The Sandai and Danzo are such smart people, plus the secret techniques of each family in the village, if you faked your death, how could you hide it from them?”

Uchiha Shisui was silent for a moment, his eyes as calm as water.

“I see.”

“And, Shisui, do you know the consequences of your death?” Uchiha Qiushan continued

“Not only will our Uchiha clan escape from our current predicament, but we will also have another pair of Mangekyō Sharingan.”

Uchiha Shisui reacted quickly

“Uchiha Itachi?”

Qiu Shan nodded: “The fragment of the future I saw was that because of your death, Uchiha Itachi awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Now it seems that with Itachi’s talent, his Sharingan should have reached the limit of three magatama. Given his feelings for you, if you were murdered for some reason, then the chance of Itachi awakening the Mangekyō is very high.”

Hearing Qiu Shan’s words, Uchiha Shisui smiled with some relief: “I didn’t expect Itachi to be so promising. He awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at a younger age than me. He will definitely be an amazing strong man in the future.”

When Uchiha Qiushan heard what Shisui said, he secretly complained in his heart, “It’s true that he became a strong man, but his brain was fooled by the third generation. In addition to the threat of Uchiha Obito, he actually wiped out his family and parents. He died alone with huge hatred.”

Uchiha Itachi is a good person, but he has been infected with the Uchiha clan’s unique mental illness and lives in his own world. Uchiha Qiushan couldn’t bear to see him end up in such a miserable way. However, these things need to be changed slowly, and if he also guards against the Third Hokage, there shouldn’t be any big problems.

Uchiha Qiushan looked at Shisui: “So, Shisui, for the sake of Uchiha and Itachi’s Mangekyō, you have no choice but to die for real once.”

Shisui looked at Uchiha Qiushan seriously: “Let me confirm again, is there no other way? Do you really need me to die?”

Qiu Shan also responded seriously: “This is the best way. Don’t worry, as long as you die, I will definitely strive for the greatest benefit for the Uchiha clan and will not let the Uchiha clan be exterminated again. I will lead the Uchiha clan to glory.”

Uchiha Shisui received Qiu Shan’s confirmation, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he nodded:

“Okay, I promise you, but you must also protect my body. I don’t want it to end up in Danzo’s hands. Also, you have to keep my Sharingan. I hope it will be helpful to you in the future. I haven’t used the Kotoamatsukami in my left eye yet, so they’re entrusting it to you.”

Uchiha Qiushan nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Shisui, you take a few days’ rest. I will arrange for someone to spread the news that you have opened the Mangekyo in a few days. When the time comes, Danzo will definitely come to find you. You must be careful to deal with it.”

Shisui nodded. He had just returned from a mission outside the village, and there were so many things going on last night that he didn’t get any rest. Although he was a strong man, he felt a little tired and was ready to go back and have a good rest.

Qiu Shan saw that the serious matters had been discussed and Uchiha Shisui was ready to leave, so he made a sincere invitation:

“Shisui, we’ve been busy all night and haven’t had breakfast yet. Let’s go eat Ichiraku Ramen. It’s my treat.”

Uchiha Ooyama had no choice. Although Konoha Village was quite large, unfortunately there were not many delicious foods. The only good ones were Ichiraku Ramen and BBQ. However, which normal person would go to eat BBQ so early in the morning? Besides, the BBQ restaurant would not be open at this time.

Therefore, a bowl of steaming hot ramen with meat and egg can be very satisfying, helping people cheer up and face the whole day with full energy.

Uchiha Shisui didn’t like drinking ramen very much, and he was not in the mood to eat it now. He just wanted to go back and rest quietly, so he declined Qiu Shan’s invitation and went back alone.

Uchiha Qiushan also understood Shisui’s feelings and did not force him. He watched Shisui’s figure disappear in the morning light. He felt a little depressed that no one was accompanying him to eat. He touched his eyes that were still a little hot and complained dissatisfiedly: “Well, if no one accompanies me, I will eat by myself. I want to eat a super large deluxe tonkotsu ramen.”

As Uchiha Qiushan left, he walked towards the village muttering to himself. The riverside, which was usually deserted, became quiet again. The morning sun shone on the sparkling river surface, and the scenery was peaceful.

······

Although Uchiha Qiushan arrived early in the morning, there were already quite a few people in Ichiraku Ramen.

As soon as Qiu Shan came in, he shouted, “Uncle Ichiraku, I want a super large deluxe ramen.”

After shouting, Qiu Shan paused, touched his stomach, and added: “Two servings, one with pork bones and one with enhanced flavor.”

Uchiha Qiushan is in the period of growth now, and he consumed a lot last night, so he can still finish two super large portions of ramen with some effort.

Many of the people who usually come to Ichiraku to eat ramen are ninjas, and the practice and extraction of chakra consumes a lot of body energy. The Akimichi clan in particular are the big eaters among the ninjas, so Uncle Ichiraku is accustomed to ninjas who can eat a lot. He doesn’t make a fuss about such requests, at most he will just look at you a few more times.

Moreover, Uchiha Qiushan is also a regular customer of Ichiraku Ramen. Ever since Qiushan became a jonin, the remuneration for the missions has increased significantly. In addition, he has no ties, so Qiushan has never treated himself badly in terms of food. He often adds a lot of ingredients to his ramen at Ichiraku. Therefore, Uncle Ichiraku’s reaction to Uchiha Qiushan’s super large deluxe ramen was very indifferent.

“Acorus, come out and help.” Seeing that he was too busy, Uncle Yile quickly called his daughter to come out and help.

Seeing Uncle Ichiraku starting to get busy, Uchiha Qiushan sat down and waited slowly. He glanced at the customers in the store. Well, there were no acquaintances or anyone he knew.

After just a short wait, Uchiha Qiushan’s ramen was ready. Ayame, who was still a little girl wearing a white hat, carefully brought his super-large deluxe ramen and placed it in front of him. Her face was red from the hot steam of the ramen, and she whispered, “Brother Qiushan, your noodles are ready, be careful of the heat!”
