Chapter 40: Encounter with Naruto Again, Meng Ying's Self-Made Weapon

  "Isn't this Little Chirp...?" Ramen Uncle laughed and said.

  "Oh, uncle, quickly give me a bowl of ramen, I didn't think the training at the Ninja Academy would be so tiring." Naruto spoke as loudly as he did in the original story.

  "Your ramen is here, enjoy," said Kawabata.

  "Oh, Shibaime's speed is really fast. I'm going to start now." Naruto took the bowl of ramen and started eating.

  "Uh... Naruto?" Ramen Uncle said.

  "What's wrong? Uncle? Is something the matter?" Naruto asked.

  "That bowl of noodles actually belongs to her." As he said that, Lao Da pointed at Meng Ling who was sitting beside him.

  "Ah?" Naruto's face turned red with embarrassment as he turned his head away, but when he saw Meng Liang's appearance, he was also stunned on the spot.

  "What's wrong? Is there a flower on my face?" Seeing Naruto looking at him with an extremely strange gaze, Meng also froze for a moment and asked somewhat unnaturally.

  "Ah, nothing, nothing, I'm really sorry, I didn't notice you were here at all. Here, have this bowl of noodles." Naruto said, hastily pushing the ramen in front of him to Meng's face.

  "Never mind, never mind. Anyway, you look quite tired today, so I'll give you this bowl of noodles first." Meng Ling said with a smile.

  "Besides, you've already eaten, how can I continue eating?" Meng Ling added silently in her heart.

  "Thanks a lot, oh and I forgot to tell you, my name is Uzumaki Naruto, and I'm gonna be the Hokage!" Our original story's main character has started bragging again.

  "Oh, that's impressive! My name is Shen Ruyue Mengling, nice to meet you."

  "Ah, ah, thank you for your guidance, Meng Ling... Meng Ling? Are you Meng Ling?" Naru was taken aback at first, then started shouting.

  "What's wrong? You don't even remember me, do you? Even though it's been four years, I shouldn't have changed that much, right?" Meng Ling asked with a pretended angry tone.

  "Huh, no, it's just that you've changed a lot. Why don't you take a look at yourself now? You're not the same as before." Naruto said in surprise.

  "Is there really such a big change?" Meng Ling touched her smooth face with some doubt.

  It's actually quite normal, as Meng Ling almost every day has to stand in front of the mirror and call her hair "damn" while combing it, so she sees herself every day, but each time is disappointed by her own appearance. Even if there really was some change, it should have been ignored by her, but Naruto and the people from Konoha are different, they haven't seen Meng Ling in four years, plus after completing the first layer of "Tian Dao Jiu Jue", her image and temperament have changed greatly, if someone really recognizes her, that would be strange.

  "Take a look yourself." At this time, Shang Pu took out a mirror from inside and placed it in front of Meng Ling.

  "Huh? This, this is......" Meng Ling looked at the mirror in front of her and her first reaction was......

  "Ultimate Beauty"

  I've seen many beauties in my previous life, but compared to the lovely girl in my eyes, they probably don't even have the qualifications to hold her shoes.

  But...

  "Why is this person me?" Meng Ling really wanted to shout, thinking that if this person wasn't herself and she was a man now, this person would absolutely be her future wife.

  About ten minutes later, Meng Ling was eating her ramen peacefully in a ramen shop, as if thinking about something...

  "It seems like her buttocks are still perky enough."

  "Still a bit too flat in the chest, guess I'm still not at that age yet."

  "I really wish it wasn't me."

  Meng Ling's heart kept thinking about it.

  At this time, beside Meng Ling, Naruto was occasionally glancing sideways at the girl next to him. Meng Ling had already eaten about three bowls of ramen, but he, who loved eating ramen, seemed to have lost his soul today, taking a bite and then not taking another of his favorite ramen.

  "Alright, thank you, Uncle, for today's treat. Your ramen is still as delicious as ever." Meng Ling smiled and said.

  "Oh, tomorrow is your first day on a mission, you gotta do your best - as a beautiful female ninja." Ramen Uncle said with a smile.

  "Ah, ah, yes, got it." Originally listening to Ramen Uncle's words, Meng Ling was still extremely happy, but when she heard the phrase "as a beautiful female ninja", she really had a feeling of wanting to die.

  "Well then, I'll be off first. See you later, Uncle, see you later, Naruto." After saying goodbye, Meng Ling didn't wait for Naruto to react and flashed out of the Ichiraku Ramen shop.

  "Disappeared, disappeared?" Naruto was still eating his ramen, but Ramen Uncle and Shun saw the moment when Meng Ling left, and they thought that Meng Ling had used the Instant Body Technique to leave.

  It wasn't until more than ten minutes had passed that Ming finally returned to reality from his stupid and dazed state.

  "Huh? Where's Mei Ling? Where did she go? I still have a lot of questions to ask her." Naruto said with some disappointment.

  "What's the hurry? Anyway, Xiaomeng has already returned, and there will be plenty of time to ask her later." Hu Die said with a smile.

  "That's also true." Upon hearing this, Naruto's heart felt much more at ease.

  "But Xiaomeng will start her mission tomorrow," said Xiangpu.

  "What? Mei Ling is still so young, has she already become a ninja?" Naruto asked in surprise.

  "Haven't you seen the forehead protector on Mei Terumī's neck? She is already a genin." Shōyu reminded.

  "Hmm..." Naruto thought for a moment, then slowly lowered his head, looking rather dejected.

  "What's wrong? Don't be discouraged, Naruto. You still have a bright future ahead of you..." Ramen Ichiraku's owner said hastily upon seeing Naruto's dejected appearance.

  "That's too awesome!"

  "What?" Lao Mian was startled.

  "It's too amazing, Mugen is really too amazing! At such a young age, he has already become a ninja. It seems that I can no longer continue to be so laid-back. I must hurry up and catch up with Mugen's level!" With that said, Naruto excitedly ran out, his whole body filled with fighting spirit.

  "Hmm, this kid's fighting spirit has been ignited again." Ramen Uncle said with a smile.

  "Oh, right! Naruto, you haven't paid yet!!!" The ramen uncle finally came to his senses after Naruto left and shouted loudly in the direction he had gone.

  As for Mei Ling, she had returned to her own home and resumed her work in metallurgy. She had suddenly thought of a very practical weapon while eating ramen with Naruto just now.

  That is the weapon used by the green-haired little devil in the famous Japanese anime "Shaman King" - a crystal rope dart worn on his right hand.

  "The head of the rope dart will be made of diamond, that way transparent objects should be even harder to detect. Alright, it's settled then - diamond physique - metallurgy." Meng Ling's hands moved in a blur, and a rhombus-shaped diamond gradually took shape in her palm.

  "We need to increase the density a bit more, and also improve the curvature of the dart body. The dart body should still use the three-leaf hand-held sword style shape for greater power. Also, the connecting steel wire and the mechanical box tied to the hand must be carefully calculated..." Meng Ling's hands continued to change in mid-air.

  About three hours later...

  "It's done." Ling'er glanced at the diamond rope dart tied to her wrist and smiled knowingly. She knew that this weapon was extremely practical in "Tong Ling Wang", as the steel wire connecting the rope dart was very thin, and if suddenly tightened, it could be used to cut through anything like a knife blade.

  "The steel wire is really thin, its width is less than one-tenth of a millimeter. At this degree, it can probably be stretched to about one kilometer at most. And with the driving force of my Mixed Yuan divine power, speed shouldn't be a problem either. Now there's only one last issue left." Meng Ling took the crystal rope dart in her hand and walked out of the house.

  "Let's try it out."

  "Steel Physique - Black Iron Stone." Meng Ling's left hand reached forward, and a black irregular iron ball about five meters in diameter appeared in her hand. Then, Meng Ling glanced at the iron ball and activated her Mixed Yuan divine power, tossing it upwards with the momentum.

  "Next is......" Meng Ling looked at the crystal rope dart in her hand and aimed at the iron ball in the air.

  "With a loud cry of 'Go…', Meng Ling immediately poured the mixed yuan divine power into the crystal rope dart. In an instant, the crystal rope dart was like a sharp sword flying off the string, shooting towards the iron ball in the air."

  "Hmph..." A crisp sound later, the crystal dart head seemed to be cutting a piece of tofu, directly piercing through the iron ball made of black iron stone.

  "...around..." Seeing the result on her forehead, Meng Ling just smiled lightly and made a slashing motion with her right hand in mid-air. In an instant, the crystal dart in the air wrapped around the iron ball, tying it up tightly.

  "...crack" Seeing that the crystal rope dart had already wrapped around the iron ball, Meng Ling's right hand suddenly pulled downwards. At this moment, only the steel wire of the crystal rope dart was seen to be rapidly retracted, and the huge iron ball instantly turned into small fragments, falling to the ground.

  "Hmm, it seems the effect is not bad. Tomorrow, I'll make some adjustments and the issue of the steel wire rope transmitting the strength of the Mixed Yuan God's power will be perfectly resolved." Meng Ling smiled to herself, but just as she turned around, she saw a familiar person standing behind her.

  Silver hedgehog hair, with only one eye visible on his entire face, wearing a green trench coat.

  "It's been a long time since I've seen you, Mr. Kakaxi." Meng Ling greeted him.

  "It's been a long time, huh? Well, I won't make small talk. Today, I came here to tell you something." Kakashi said with a depressed expression.

  "What's going on?" Meng Ling asked with some curiosity.

  "It's about your team members tomorrow..." Kakashi said calmly.
