บท 10: Chapter 9: Young Master of Peng Clan
"Ah, this…"
Seeing the rewards offered by the system, Takuya didn't hesitate for even a second and immediately made his choice!
There was really no need to think about it!
He chose 2 and 3!
Because options 1 was of no use to him at all.
For someone with near zero chakra talent, how much chakra could he accumulate in a lifetime? It might not even be enough for him to become a Chunin.
In this lifetime, he wasn't the main warrior; he was in logistics.
So he firmly chose 2 and 3!
In an instant, a vast amount of knowledge and memories spanning over 80 years flooded into his mind!
The ramen-making skills honed over seventy years.
Cooking, boiling broth, kneading dough, and mixing…
All sorts of unique recipes and exquisite techniques were absorbed in an instant!
At that moment, Takuya had already become a master ramen chef with seventy years of experience.
His skills even surpassed those of the number one ramen chef in Konoha!
However…
"Ugh…"
Due to his body being unable to handle such a massive influx of information and knowledge, Takuya suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't help but gag.
"Takuya-kun!"
Hinata was startled and hurried over to support him.
"What! What's wrong with you…"
"I'm… I'm fine…"
"I just feel a bit dizzy…"
Takuya lifted his head, his eyes bloodshot.
Seeing his face like this, Hinata turned pale, completely bewildered!
What had happened to Takuya?!
Could he be poisoned?
Or was he under… a genjutsu?
Could he be in danger of losing his life?!
...
Since this simulation lasted too long, a full 85 years, Takuya wouldn't be able to undertake another simulation for the next three days or so.
"It seems I'll have to endure it,"
"Hopefully, I can get a physique enhancement talent next time."
"At least I hope I don't throw up…"
After school.
The students of the ninja academy all returned to their homes.
Naruto cheerfully surrounded him.
"Takuya, let's go get ramen!"
Want to go eat ramen?
Takuya smiled faintly.
No need for Naruto to invite him; he actually wanted to go.
After all, in his previous life, he was the son-in-law of the ramen shop owner!
The Ichiraku Ramen shop had been running under his management for decades!
Soon, under Naruto's lead, a group of youngsters arrived at the ramen shop.
"Boss! I want a large bowl of ramen!"
"Boss! I want bone broth ramen! Cook the noodles a little harder!"
"Boss! Put in more fish balls!"
With the arrival of a bunch of kids, the shop became lively.
However, at that moment, Takuya's expression was a bit sentimental.
You have to know that in the life he just simulated, he chose to become a ramen chef.
He worked in this Ichiraku Ramen shop for a few years and eventually married Ayame.
Now, sitting here again, eating ramen, it all felt like a dream.
"The noodles are ready."
Ayame came out with a plate, placing the bowls of ramen in front of Takuya and the others.
"I'm digging in!"
Naruto and Chōji immediately slurped down their noodles.
"Hey! Idiot Naruto, you splashed broth on my face!"
Sakura complained loudly.
Sasuke sat silently nearby, quietly eating his noodles.
"What's wrong, Takuya-kun?"
"Don't you have an appetite?"
At the table, Hinata looked at Takuya with concern.
At that moment, Takuya furrowed his brows, his gaze fixed on the bowl of noodles in front of him, yet he didn't move his chopsticks.
Considering his series of unusual behaviors today, Hinata suspected that Takuya truly didn't have much of an appetite.
"No, it's just that this bowl of noodles isn't quite right."
"Huh?"
"I mean, the quality of this bowl of noodles is only about sixty percent; it could be tastier."
As soon as he said this, not just Hinata and Sasuke,
but even Teuchi and Ayame turned their attention to him.
"Hey, brat, what are you talking about? My dad's ramen is perfect; how could it be only sixty percent?"
Takuya's ex-wife, Ayame, walked over with an expression of disbelief.
Glancing up at this woman who was a few years older than him, Takuya felt a moment of confusion.
But he quickly regained his composure and said seriously, "This bowl of noodles can be tastier; you have to believe me."
"Oh? Could it be that you also know how to make ramen?"
Ayame crossed her arms, intrigued, while the other kids also paused to listen.
"Come on, don't listen to him brag! Takuya can't cook; his cooking is as bad as pig slop!" Naruto laughed loudly.
"It's not that bad, but it's just edible at best," Sakura chimed in, resting her chin on her chopsticks.
"Hey, Takuya, what are you talking about? Everyone knows Teuchi's cooking! It's the best in Konoha! There's no ramen better than his!" Chōji said confidently.
The reactions of the kids were unanimous; after all, Ichiraku Ramen was a famous brand throughout the ninja world.
Having been in business for decades, it was always bustling!
There was no doubt about its taste!
But at that moment,
in Takuya's eyes,
the current Ichiraku Ramen indeed had some flaws!
As for the reason,
that was naturally the result of his last simulation!
After being a ramen chef for decades, he had honed his skills.
And in pursuit of perfection, he experimented and combined hundreds of flavors to make an even better taste.
With all the skills and experience from his previous life, he naturally found the current ramen unsatisfactory!
"Let me try it."
"I'll make a bowl of ramen that's 100% perfect!"
Without wasting any more breath, Takuya immediately walked into the kitchen.
"Hey, wait, are you really going to do it?"
"Takuya! Are you trying to poison us?"
"Seriously, Takuya, what's wrong with you? You think your cooking can beat the owner's?"
Takuya's actions left everyone dumbfounded!
They all wondered if Takuya had lost his mind today, thinking his skills could surpass those of the owner?
Everyone stopped eating and crowded around.
In front of the noodle pot, Teuchi laughed heartily, "Hahaha! I've been running this ramen shop for decades, and I've never encountered a little brat who dared to challenge my flavor. So, give it a try! If you can really make it better than mine, I'll treat you for free from now on!"
"Okay."
Takuya replied quietly.
Then, putting on an apron, donning a chef's hat, rolling up his sleeves, and washing his hands.
These preparatory tasks for ramen-making had become second nature to him over decades.
He moved with a proficiency ingrained in his bones!
Even though he hadn't officially started, Teuchi and Ayame were already stunned.
"This… this kid…"
"How is he so skilled?!"
