12 - Ichiraku ramen

On the training ground two people were fighting, however, while one was very tired and looked miserable as he attacked, the other seemed to be having a lot of fun as he dodged the blows with ease, at one point the man who seemed to be having fun landed a blow on his opponent's head that made him stumble and fall to the ground in exhaustion.

Takashi looked at the fallen figure and smiling said: "Today's training is complete, from tomorrow classes will start again, so rest well until then, I won't be able to teach you anymore either, but I've already taught you the basics, the rest you can practice on your own, if you have any questions or want to struggle a bit to practice, I'll be happy to help, of course I hope that at this point you be at least capable of landing a single blow on me."

Hearing his teacher's last sentence Dazen couldn't help but send a look full of anger towards his teacher, during these last two weeks Dazen fought with Takashi several times, but he didn't manage to land a single blow, even worse when he missed one blow or leave any gap Takashi would immediately beat him until he couldn't get up, always with the excuse that it would be easier to learn that way.

Dazen looked angrily at his teacher and thought: 'And to think that I judged him as a good person, look for him if he wants to fight, only if I go crazy, you just want someone to use as a punching bag, that's it.'

Noticing the look full of anger and complaint from his student Takashi couldn't help but laugh out loud, during this training he noticed Dazen's talent, he is very intelligent and learns quickly, that's why he didn't hold back and taught him the best possible and Dazen didn't disappoint him and learned very quickly.

Takashi looked at Dazen while laughing and said: "You don't need to look at me that way, you have evolved a lot during your training, that's why I was so hard on you, from now on it will depend on you how much you can evolve in the use of kenjutsu, Now I have to go, don't be late for class tomorrow."

Dazen stood up slowly, said: "Okay, okay, I won't be late tomorrow in any way, thank you very much for teaching me so far, I'm really grateful for these classes."

Takashi smiled and said: "I already said that there's no need to thank you, it's always good to have a student who wants to learn, so I'll be going, don't forget to rest for the rest of the day."

Dazen watched as his teacher quickly disappeared as he thought, 'Despite the beatings, I learned a lot this vacation and I became a lot stronger, I don't know how strong I am compared to a genin, but I must be more than average If I continue at this rate I can be as strong as a chunin when I graduate.'

While walking through the streets of Konoha Dazen watched people passing by and thought: 'Come to think of it, it's been a year since I've been in this world, time has gone by very quickly, during that time I've only been focused on training and I didn't even go out to look around, like classes start tomorrow, I think I'll rest today and walk around.'

Having decided that, Dazen turned around and started heading towards another place, speaking of Konoha there were 3 places that Dazen wanted to see, these were the hokage monument, the Ichiraku ramen that Naruto liked so much and the last place...

There was still some time until dinner, so Dazen decided to go towards the hokage monument, arriving at the location, Dazen looked up and saw the faces of the hokages, this view could be seen from anywhere in Konoha, but Dazen never stopped to really analyze the monument.

He looked at the hokage's face as he thought, 'It's truly something magnificent, it's strange to think that this is my world and my reality now... I have no idea what my future will be like or what changes my presence will cause, but I have I have to get used to being in this world and living in it.'

Dazen kept looking for a while as he continued to reflect and after a while he started walking in another direction to explore other places in the village until he felt hungry and headed towards a simple restaurant.

Dazen lifted the curtain and said, "A bowl of ramen, please." And soon he heard a sound of confirmation from the owner as he said, "Okay, your order will be ready, you can sit down while you wait."

Dazen sat down and waited patiently for the owner to give him his order while asking, "So it's a new customer, what's your name little guy?"

Dazen quickly replied, "My name is Dazen, I heard this place's food is great, so I came to try it."

Hearing the compliment, Teuchi smiled and said: "Your sources are correct, my ramen is definitely the best in all of Konoha so come whenever you feel like it."

Dazen replied: "If the food is really good then I will come again and again." So Dazen took his hastis and started eating and soon the confirmation came the ramen was really great in a short time Dazen ate it all without leaving even a drop left.

Seeing this, Teuchi smiled and said: "See, it's like I said, my food is top notch."

'No wonder Naruto was addicted to this place.' Thought Dazen as he spoke, "It was much better than I expected, well now I have to go, but I'll definitely be back again and again, so I hope for a loyalty discount next time." Finishing speaking, Dazen left the money and got up and left while Teuchi was still stunned.

Teuchi was stunned as he thought, 'Coming here for the first time and asking for a loyalty discount, this kid is really shameless.' He took the money and started serving the other customers.
