Naruto Law of the Devil

Second chapter for today

A date?! Pff!

Upon hearing Mitarashi Anko's words, Yugao's cheeks turned bright red, and Yu almost choked on his own saliva.

Indeed, Yugao, who was now nine years old, was exceptionally pure and beautiful, and she had shown a considerable amount of affection toward Yu.

However, as a time traveler with the soul of an adult, Yu couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt about going on a date with an underage girl from the world of anime and manga.

Moreover, Yu's physical age was only six years old, making it an insurmountable barrier in his mind.

A date? Let's wait until I'm a bit older!

"Cough, um..."

After an awkward throat clearing, Yu looked at Yugao and asked, "Senpai... you?"

"No need to call me senpai..."

Before Yu could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the shy Yugao, "Just call me Yugao!"

"Yug... Yugao, huh..."

Alright, Yu thought with a twitch of his mouth. It seemed impossible to dissuade this girl from her early romantic interests.

"But, speaking of that... You, kid, are truly a monster!"

At this point, Mitarashi Anko's voice came from the side. She was eating dango and looking at Yu with an incredibly strange expression.

"You graduated from the ninja academy in just one year... and even defeated Uchiha Shisui, a genius."

"It was just luck..." Yu tried to be modest, but Mitarashi Anko interrupted him.

"It looks like I'll have to step up my game!"

"I can't let a junior like you surpass me."

Mitarashi Anko quickly finished her dango and, without waiting for Yu and Yugao to react, disappeared from their view in a puff of smoke.

She really reminds me of a female version of Naruto...

Watching the carefree Mitarashi Anko disappear from sight, Yu's amber eyes flickered.

'... I wonder if she's about to encounter Orochimaru?'

A year had passed, and Mitarashi Anko was now ten years old. This year, she would graduate from the ninja academy. According to the plot, she should soon become one of the three apprentices of Orochimaru and start going on missions with him.

"Anko is just like that."

"When it comes to dating... I hope you don't mind, Yu."

"Mind? Of course not... I should be thankful for your favor, Yugao."

After collecting his thoughts, Yu looked at the girl by his side. She seemed a bit down, so he flashed a reassuring smile.

"Since I'm calling you Yugao directly... you can call me Yu."

"Okay! Then, I'll call you Yu!"

Hearing her response, the bright and beautiful girl immediately regained her energy.

"Let's go. You treated me to dango, and now I'll treat you to ramen."

Walking together on the bustling streets of Konoha, Yu's eyes were drawn to the sign of a ramen shop not far away with the words "Ichiraku Ramen." He had already decided what to eat for lunch.

"Good afternoon! What can I get for you two?"

As soon as they entered the shop and took their seats, a rather plain-looking man greeted Yu and Yugao with enthusiasm.

"Two bowls of pork chashu ramen, please."

Sitting beside Yugao, Yu looked at the unassuming ramen shop owner. He couldn't help but wonder if this man was the young version of Teuchi, the owner of Ichiraku Ramen.

After placing their orders, Yu and Yugao enjoyed their steaming bowls of ramen.

The pork chashu was tender but not greasy, and the broth was rich and flavorful. The hand-pulled noodles had the perfect texture.

Yu and Yugao savored every bite, finding the ramen to be truly authentic. It was no wonder that the protagonist, Naruto, was so fond of this ramen shop in the original story.

Not even ten minutes had passed, and the two bowls of ramen were completely empty.

After paying the bill, Yu led Yugao out of Ichiraku Ramen.

"I'm so full!"

"By the way, Yu, now that you've become a Genin, do you have any plans?"

As they exited Ichiraku Ramen, Yugao rubbed her slightly bulging belly and turned to look at Yu.

Normally, newly graduated Genin were assigned to a ninja team led by a Jounin to carry out missions. Given the current state of war in the ninja world, even Genin might be assigned to frontline missions or auxiliary tasks.

"I'm not sure yet..."

"I think I might be assigned to the Anbu Black Ops."

Hearing Yugao's question, Yu casually rested his hands behind his head.

He thought about the meeting with the Third Hokage earlier, where he and Shisui were summoned to the Hokage's office. Yu wondered how the Hokage would arrange their future missions.

"The Anbu Black Ops?"

Yugao was momentarily surprised by Yu's answer, but she soon relaxed.

"That's fine. At least you won't be sent to the front lines."

The Anbu Black Ops, officially known as the "Special Assassination and Tactical Squad," was similar to a special forces unit. Its members were selected from outstanding ninja in the village and were primarily responsible for protecting the Hokage, gathering intelligence, and carrying out covert missions, including assassinations.

Anbu members wore white masks resembling animals during their missions, and information about their missions and identities was highly classified. The Anbu reported directly to the Hokage and were divided into several squads, each led by a captain who received and executed mission orders.

Although Anbu missions were dangerous, Yugao hoped that Yu would stay in Konoha to work with the Anbu rather than being sent to the front lines of the war.
