Chapitre 6: Young Naruto

By the time it turned dark outside, Yasui and his clones completed the first book of his erotica series. His shadow clone from the academy had already returned, and it even joined in on helping them complete the first book.

Luckily, he had a lot of research materials in his head already, so the process was smooth. The modern world provided him with a lot of similar popular stories that he had written down. He even referenced many poetic and sophisticated literary quotes from the modern world. Since he's in a new world anyways, he didn't care about copyright problems.

He even added a heartbreaking twist at the end to leave the readers on a cliffhanger. The main character managed to seduce a beautiful woman who had a child, but due to his lacking strength, the woman and her girl were taken away. It's a tragedy, but it's one that makes the reader want more.

This is only to set the anticipation for his next novel. From his experience in writing online novels before, this strategy is a good approach.

Yasui deactivated the shadow clones and his stomach grumbled again. He's hungry, but he doesn't have any money anymore.

"This is quite the dilemma." Yasui sighed and decided to go out to the streets and roam. He wanted to find a book publishing institution so that he can publish and distribute his erotica.

As he strolled towards the business street, Yasui could hear the sound of laughter and conversation. The smell of delicious food also filled the air.

After entering the street itself, he saw that many of the stalls are bustling with people, and the vendors were cooking up a variety of foods. The tantalizing aromas of freshly made noodles, barbecued meats, spices, and sweet desserts waft through the night air.

When Yasui stepped in front of Ichiraku ramen, his stomach rumbled hungrily, reminding him that he should eat now. Yasui also really wanted to try Ichiraku ramen, but he knew he can't at the moment due to not having any money.

Hence, he can only stand and watch as people inside order food to eat, wishing that he could join them. He wanted to leave and find a book publishing firm, but his legs wouldn't move. Instead, he daydreamed about going in there to eat.

"Hey, are you also going to eat Ichiraku ramen?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Yasui looked over and saw Naruto walking to him with his hands in his sweatshirt's pocket.

"Oh, it's you, Naruto. I want to eat, but I don't have money at the moment. I guess I'll be going then." Yasui shrugged and wanted to leave before his feeling of hunger got worse.

"Wait, Yasui. I can treat you to Ichiraku ramen if you want." Naruto touched the money in his pocket and felt that it should be enough for two people.

"You will? Then I won't say no then, friend!" Yasui didn't think that Naruto would be so generous. He knew that Naruto must not have had any more money than he did because Hiruzen is such a money grubber.

Anyways, he wouldn't say no to a free meal. It's a meal that he's craving too.

"Friend?" Naruto looked flustered when he heard this word. This is the first time that anyone called him a friend. He didn't think that Yasui Uchiha had thought so highly of him, but it might've been his fault for not approaching Yasui Uchiha first.

"Of course we're friends! Although our bond ain't deep, all friendship starts with a first step. Our first step is to eat Ichiraku ramen together. What do you think?" Yasui smiled cheekily and pumped out his fist. He didn't mind befriending Naruto. He never planned to stay away from the main storyline in the first place.

"Right!" Happier than usual, Naruto returned the bro first and led Yasui into Ichiraku ramen.

When Yasui ate the ramen noodles, his taste buds danced with joy. Ichiraku ramen noodles are definitely a delicious, savory treat that can satisfy any craving.

The noodles were made from wheat flour and are cooked to perfection, giving them a soft texture and a unique flavor. They are served in a flavorful broth, often made with pork, and topped with a variety of fresh ingredients, like bamboo shoots, nori, and a boiled egg. The combination of the flavorful broth and the soft noodles is a mix of umami and richness that made him want to come back for more.

Even the noodles also have a pleasant chewiness that is unlike any other noodle that he had before. It's no wonder that Naruto loves eating here. It's nutritious, delicious, and affordable.

They finished eating the food and both of them exited the Ichiraku ramen booth after thanking the smiling ramen guy.

Yasui felt satisfied after having his craving fulfilled, and he asked: "Naruto, is there a place around here that publishes books for authors?"

"A place that publishes books? Errm, I don't know. But there is a place that has a lot of grown-up books for sale. Recently, I've been sneaking in there to develop a new secret technique." Naruto scratched his head shyly.

"That technique–!! What's the name of it?" Yasui's eyes widened when he heard Naruto talk about the secret technique. It must be the legendary technique, right?

Sure enough… Naruto dropped the bomb: "It's called the Sexy Jutsu! I invented it myself."

"Wow! I'm astonished, Naruto! I'm utterly shocked that you can develop such a technique yourself! Can I see it!?" Yasui excitedly came to Naruto and shook him.

"Heh! Heh! Heh! Of course! Sexy Jutsu!!!!"

Right there. Out in the middle of the streets… Naruto transformed into a blonde, naked teenage girl, blowing a kiss at Yasui. It still needed some fine-tuning around the curves, but most of the transformation is complete.

"Amazing…" Yasui clapped his hands slowly as his eyes marveled at the naked body of Naruto's Sexy Jutsu.

The people in their surroundings were baffled. Blood flowed from the men's noses while women pinched their husbands and blocked the eyes of their children. Some even gave contemptuous looks at Naruto. Some even showed deep hate in their eyes which didn't go unnoticed by Yasui.

Puff

Naruto turned back to normal and puffed out his chest: "How was it, Yasui?"

Yasui gave naruto two thumbs up and complimented him. "It's brilliant. In fact, I want to help you develop it further! Let's go to the shop right now–"

"It's closed at the moment, Yasui. Maybe we can go tomorrow." Naruto interrupted and shook his head.

"I guess we can go tomorrow then. You're not busy tomorrow, are you?" Yasui wanted to stay with this village roamer. He also wanted to see what Naruto did all day after the academy. From the canon, it seems that naruto just spent most of his time roaming the streets and causing pranks to get attention.

However, he will be the judge of that.
