Naruto: The Lone Wolf of the Leaf

After 3 Years.

Ryu POV

Sakura: Wow Ryu, your even stronger than when we were younger. The gap before was still pretty big, but at least we could have a chance at touching you.

Naruto: Yeah and you don't know what that Pervy Sage put me through for those 3 years.

Haku: Kai, Mei and I might not be able to beat you all at once we all went all out against each other.

Ryu: You all give me to much credit. Ryu, so Kakashi, have you created any new Jutsu?

Kakashi: Actually I have, thanks for asking. There's this one where I can manipulate my Lightning blade and-

Ryu: Alright guys, we're here.

We went into the Ramen shop and I saw two more familiar heads.

???: Geez, you seriously need to eat less.

???: Come on, you know Ramen is my favorite food.

Ryu: Speak of the devil. There goes my wallet tonight then.

???: Huh?

They both turned around and they're eyes widened as they smiled.

Mei/Kai: Ryu!!

Mei hugged me as Kai put me in a headlock.

Kai: Good to see you buddy!

Mei: Your finally back!

Ryu: Hey guys. It's good to see ya too.

Teuchi: Ryu! Welcome back! You've grown up so much! Your even taller than me now!

Kai: Wait, that means your still taller than me!

Ryu: Yeah, Naruto has the same reaction.

Ayame: Welcome home!

Teuchi: Well this calls for a celebration! Tonight you all eat free!

Ryu: What a relief. But your gonna have to work harder than you ever have for these two.

Teuchi: I've been preparing for this for 3 years. I know how much Ramen these two can eat.

???: It's a big reunion.

I turned to see Iruka at the front.

Ryu: Hey Iruka Sensei!

Iruka: You don't need to call me Sensei Ryu. If anything, I should be calling you that. Your a Jonin remember?

Ryu: Yeah I guess your right.

Time Skip!

Ryu: Thanks again Teuchi.

Teuchi: No problem.

He and Ayame looked like they were completely exhausted from cooking all of that. I then pulled out my wallet and slid 1000 Ryu onto the table.

Ryu: Consider that a tip.

He smiled before we all left.

Kai: Ahh! That's gotta be the best Ramen in the world!

Naruto: You said it!

Ryu: I'm just glad I didn't have to pay very much. After all this time I only had half the money I used to without going on missions.

Haku: That's still a lot.

Ryu: Touché.

Mei: Anyway, I can't believe you managed to beat them without even getting hit once.

Ryu: When I said I'd get stronger, I wasn't lying.

Naruto: Yeah, and I thought I pushed myself. That's Pervy Sage is out of control. His training was so intense that I tore up my cloths and headband so I had to get replacements.
