Ryun quickly walked out of the bathroom, as if the fatigue on his body had been washed away by the hot water. He took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air, and felt full of energy again.
After the bath, he felt refreshed and invigorated. The tiredness from the earlier meeting instantly vanished without a trace.
He picked up his phone. When the screen lit up, a message from Orochimaru came into view. "Respected Hokage-sama, next we will proceed with the new model machine tool research. The specific details are as follows."
Ryun glanced casually at the message, finding the specialized terminology and complex charts somewhat baffling.
He couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself, 'What is all this? I completely don't understand.'
However, he wasn't defeated by this difficulty. He deftly awakened the system within him, then showed the phone screen to the system, requesting it to help interpret this message.
The system quickly responded. "Ding, host, Orochimaru's theory is completely without issue, and even contains much knowledge beyond textbooks. If this is his own idea, then he is absolutely a genius. Even in the real world, he would belong to the first tier."
Ryun nodded after hearing this, indicating he understood. He still had a certain understanding of Orochimaru's abilities, knowing he was a very intelligent and talented person.
Since the system said so, Orochimaru's research should be very promising.
"Alright, I know. You may withdraw," Ryun said satisfactorily to the system. The system seemed somewhat displeased, muttering, "Pah, scumbag! Use me and then throw me away!" Then it fell silent.
Ryun's lips curved slightly upwards; he didn't mind the system's complaint. He picked his ear, and his mind began to ponder Orochimaru's research.
He particularly hoped to see the day when Konoha's technological level would be far ahead. At that time, Konoha would become a place that other shinobi villages looked up to.
Tsunade finished her bath, and Ryun, sitting in the bedroom, snapped out of his thoughts.
Seeing Ryun, Tsunade was slightly startled. Suddenly, she pounced like a hungry tiger. "Heave-ho! Hubby, are you ready?" She licked her lips.
Ryun nodded. Then, a day passed.
Ryun also fell into a deep sleep. He lay on the bed, his left arm holding Tsunade's waist. Tsunade's chest was pressed against his side. The two maintained an intimate posture as they fell asleep.
It wasn't until dark the next day that Ryun woke up. As soon as he got up, he felt a slight ache in his lower back. He grimaced. Tsunade wasn't even twenty yet. What should he do when she reaches thirty, lusty like a wolf, and forty, fierce like a tiger?
Although he had his Sage Body providing a continuous supply of stamina, endurance, and vitality, the feeling of fatigue didn't just disappear. Supporting his waist, he got out of bed. He was very hungry.
He slowly walked to the living room, picked up the phone, and dialed the restaurant's number.
"Hello, is this Guofeng Restaurant?" His voice was deep and magnetic. "This is Ryun. Send me some oysters, scallops, and today's Chef's Special."
The owner on the other end, who had been preparing to get off work, immediately perked up upon hearing the name "Ryun." "Yes, Hokage-sama!" he replied respectfully.
The owner quickly turned and shouted towards the kitchen, "Fire up one stove again! Hokage-sama wants the Chef's Special, oysters, and scallops!"
In the kitchen, the Uchiha cook, who had been washing pots and preparing to get off work, heard the owner's shout and his face instantly darkened. He grumbled, "It's almost time to get off work, how can someone still order..."
However, when he heard the words "Hokage-sama," his eyes suddenly lit up, as if ignited. He immediately put down the brush he was holding, tied his apron, and started working busily.
For this Chef's Special, the Uchiha cook used all his skills. He deftly chopped vegetables, prepared ingredients, every movement precise and elegant. He also used various unique cooking techniques and seasonings to enhance the dish's flavor.
Meanwhile, Might Dai also excitedly shouted, "Hokage-sama's youth is so burning hot!"
He took a deep breath, then suddenly opened the Eight Gates.
Instantly, his body emitted a powerful aura. His speed and strength were greatly enhanced.
Then, Might Dai rushed towards the stove like lightning, his spatula dancing in the air, intertwining with the flames. He began vigorously stir-frying the pork kidneys, each toss full of passion and power, making one gasp in admiration.
On the other side, the other three cooks were also busy. One cook was responsible for fetching the fresh oysters and scallops. He carefully scooped them out of the tank, ensuring their top quality.
Another cook quickly boiled a pot of water, then placed the oysters and scallops on the grill, preparing to roast them. He skillfully controlled the heat, letting the oysters and scallops gradually emit an enticing aroma under the scorching flames.
The last cook focused on preparing the sauce. He mixed various seasonings in precise proportions, stirring them evenly, creating a unique and delicious sauce.
In just twenty minutes, these dishes were ready. This time, it wasn't the food taster who sampled them, but the owner himself.
"Mmm, not bad. Pack them up, use the premium boxes, must keep them warm, can't let the food get cold!" the owner said with a smile.
Everyone sprang into action. Finally, the food, along with rice, was packed into a four-tiered peachwood lunchbox that looked expensive.
In the top tier, the owner also placed two flasks of sake and one roasted chicken. He smiled, hoping Hokage-sama and the Hokage's wife would be satisfied!
Then, he called a delivery boy. Although still a child, his speed was very fast.
"Minato, take this meal to Hokage-sama's villa. Be careful on the road, oh, must not spill it! If you can deliver it steadily, I'll give you a one thousand ryo reward!" The owner said to Minato Namikaze with a full smile.
"Alright, boss! Don't worry, I will definitely deliver the meal safely!" Minato Namikaze's lips curved upwards, revealing a sunny, bright smile.
His smile seemed to have a magical charm, making people feel happy just seeing it. Because of this, the restaurant's business had recently been better than before!
"Good, then go quickly and come back soon!" The owner nodded with a smile, his gaze resting gently on Minato Namikaze, like looking at his own child.
Minato Namikaze's figure moved swiftly like lightning, his speed astonishing, as if a gust of wind had blown past. At the same time, he skillfully used chakra to keep the box held in his right hand steadily in the same position, completely unaffected by his speed.
This way, even if he ran very fast, the food inside the box wouldn't be tossed into a mess from the violent shaking.
It must be said, the current Minato Namikaze was indeed a very reliable person.
His food delivery was not only fast but also accurate. More importantly, he could guarantee the integrity and stability of the food, which made customers praise his service highly.
Because of this, Guofeng Restaurant's business became more and more prosperous, and its profits increased day by day.
And so, Minato Namikaze, holding the promise to the boss, with light steps, raced towards the Hokage's villa.
