Hokage: All Gender Reversed Except Me

Seeing that Hongle's face was pale and ashen, Naruto also took the opportunity to say calmly, "Don't worry, if you are obedient enough... Not only will this matter not be spread, I can also teach you more advanced cooking skills, the real secret of wrapping ramen Essence.”

When Naruto first learned that Hongle was competing with Aunt Ichiraku for the title of No. [-] Flavor Enhancer in Konoha, he didn't think about directly taking out the seasoning to help Ichiraku kill Hongle instantly.

However, when he learned about Hongle's recent travel trajectory and the alkali stone that appeared in his hand, he immediately changed his attention.

If this person is used well, he will be able to perfectly cover up all the unfavorable details of his behind-the-scenes pursuit of Konoha's silver.

Sure enough, after his operation deliberately amplified the risk of alkali stone, Hongle immediately became afraid.

Of course, this kind of unrefined alkali stone is crushed and boiled in water, which itself has great risks, but it will not be obvious in a short time.

After all, it is impossible to extract food-grade alkaline noodles with the civilian chemical industry standards of this world.

As for industrial-grade alkaline noodles... they are extremely harmful to the human body after consumption, especially industrial caustic soda, which is no less corrosive than sulfuric acid.

This kind of thing has great potential for harm. If the apprentice does not operate it properly, it will cause irreparable losses.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Hongle’s purified alkali noodles are poison.

Of course, Naruto is only seven years old now, so it is very unwise to directly threaten a fanatical chef with this matter. Offending such a fanatical and almost paranoid person to death will cause him a lot of unnecessary trouble in the future.

This is equivalent to not allowing Orochimaru to conduct experiments, and the consequences will be quite serious.

Although Hong Le was a cook and it would not be possible to assassinate him, at worst his strength would be exposed, which was not what he wanted to see.

That's why he said to Hongle; as long as you are obedient enough, I can teach you the essence of real cooking.

When Naruto said these words, Hongle's eyes suddenly shone with desire.

If a seven-year-old kid had dared to say that to him before, he would have slapped him in the face.

But after experiencing the alkali stone poison, he believed it, completely believed it.

Neither I nor the master who had lived in the mountains for a long time could understand the many functions of alkali stone, but this seven-year-old child's understanding of alkali stone was actually better than theirs.

"The true essence of cooking and ramen..." Hongle knelt on the ground and looked up at Naruto.

"Not bad." Naruto smiled confidently, "I can use this alkali stone and add secret ingredients to make peerless ramen!"

[Ding, I received 30 shock points from the villagers of Konoha! 】

Hongle was shocked when he heard what Naruto said, "Isn't this thing poisonous? How can I still make ramen?"

Hearing this, Naruto smiled and said, "Of course it cannot be used directly. I need to use a variety of complicated processes to further refine it and remove all dangerous ingredients. Then it can be used in cooking."

[Ding, I received 30 shock points from Hongle! 】

Hongle raised his head and looked at Naruto blankly, "Can it really be done?"

"Hmph, when did I lie to you?"

"Master! Please accept me as your disciple!"

He had noticed this kid from the beginning, and he always had this confident smile on his face, which never changed.

Hearing this, Naruto pretended to shake his head and said, "Accepting a disciple? Are you...qualified to be my disciple?"

Hongle's expression changed.

Yes, I am almost [-] years old, and I am not as good at cooking as Yile, and at worst I am not as good as a seven-year-old child, so what qualifications do I have to become a teacher?

"Of course, nothing is absolute..." Naruto said calmly, "If you are obedient enough, maybe I can try to train you."

Hong Le almost gave up, but who would have thought that this matter could turn around. He kowtowed again and said, "Master, I will obey you and do whatever you tell me!"

Let him despair first and then give him hope. This is the way to accept a younger brother. Otherwise, directly accepting a younger brother will make Hongle feel that he is not majestic enough to form a domineering attitude between superiors and subordinates.

"Okay, the first thing for you is..."

Naruto told Hongle about his improvised and careful plan. Hongle was surprised for a while, worried for a while, and patted his chest for assurance.

The two of them talked secretly for 10 minutes in the Ichiraku Ramen Shop before walking out together.

Hongle felt refreshed when he came out, and when he looked at Naruto again, his eyes were filled with awe.

Naruto, on the other hand, put on his ANBU mask again as usual.

At this time, everyone waiting outside the store looked at the two of them nervously.

Hongle's three younger brothers were naturally full of confidence, while Yile and Changpu looked extremely nervous.

Only Sasuke looked at the two of them with a frown.

"Master, how is it?"

"Yes, does this guy give you a satisfactory answer?"

The three big boys said as they rolled up their sleeves and approached Naruto with evil looks on their faces.

"presumptuous!"

Seeing this, Hongle was shocked. Now the yellow-haired boy was his benefactor and future master. His dream of shocking the world with his cooking skills depended on his little master. How could he let his little apprentice mess with Tai Sui?

Hong Le roared angrily and gave the three apprentices a beating.

The three young apprentices screamed and hurriedly begged for mercy.

After Hongle beat his apprentice, he was relieved when he saw that Naruto didn't say anything.

"Hongle, although I lost in the preliminary round, I will use all my strength to defend the title of Konoha's No. [-] Zeng."

At this time, Aunt Yile also mustered up the courage to say.

Hearing this, Hongle smiled knowingly and waved his hand, "Happy, since you lost the preliminary round, I will set the time, questions, and rules for the final."

Ichiraku and Acorus nodded.

Hongle recalled what Naruto had told him, and then carefully organized his words and said, "The final time is set for tomorrow night, and the location is set to be by the Xiangshui River. I will invite all the ramen chefs in Konoha to participate."

When Aunt Yile heard this, she looked obviously unhappy, but since she lost the preliminary round, she could only nod.

"Question, what are the rules?" Aunt Yile asked.

"Humph, it's very simple, it's just a matter of time."

Hongle smiled confidently and said, "Tomorrow we will make the secret recipe ramen together. After making the ramen, let it sit for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, we will let many judges try it. The one with the strongest ramen and the most delicious soup will win."

Hearing this topic and rules, I felt as happy as falling into an ice cave.

Hongle must be confident that she can come up with this kind of question, but if her ramen is left alone for 5 minutes... she can't guarantee how it will taste.

In the end, Aunt Yile gritted her teeth and nodded, "I accept!"

"Hahaha... have fun, let's go!"

When Hongle heard Ichile's promise, he glanced at Naruto vaguely and then left with his three disciples.

After the four people left, the front of the Ichiraku Ramen shop was filled with gloom and gloom.

"It's over, it seems that I can't keep my title of No. [-] flavor increaser in Konoha." Aunt Ichiraku said with a depressed expression.

"Mother... I believe you can defeat Hongle." Chang Pu also hurriedly comforted.

Ichiraku shook his head and waved his hands, "He left Konoha with his apprentice for many years and traveled around. He must have obtained the top secret formula."

Seeing that their faces were ashen, Naruto also took off his mask and said with a smile, "Auntie, I also believe that you can defeat Uncle Hongle and retain the title of No. [-] Masaki in Konoha."

Ichiraku could only smile bitterly and nod. He seemed to have thought of something and looked at Naruto and said, "Little Naruto, I have to deal with many judges in the finals tomorrow. Ichiraku only has me and Acorus and we don't have enough people..."

"No problem, Auntie, you often help me. I will bring her to help you after school tomorrow." Naruto said, grabbing Sasuke.
