Man it been so long since I last wroth anything sorry guy kind of forgot about you all. I didn't mean to but well.
On the other hand I did get much better in English so you should see much improvement on my grammar and spelling so you guy will hopefully enjoy the story much more now.I know that it bugged a lot of people but at the time frankly I dint care much for it.
And if you didn't notice I'm not going to rewrite the story just correct it so everything feels smoother and cleaner
A young Naruto was walking in the forest around the city of konoha he hadn't been thrown out or chased by a mob but instead was looking for some wild food.
Now you probably are wondering why he is doing that. Well it had happen over a week ago his favorite restaurant and also the only one that he was allowed in had bent burned to the ground by a bunch of drunken villagers. Old man ichiraku wanted to rebuild at first but after receiving some threats from random members of the village he decided against it and instead decided to get away from the village with his daughter for they're security.
He was sad to let naruto alone but he just in all account risk anything to happen to his little girl and will he didn't like it much it was the best option he had
But that was a part of the past and now naruto was looking for some food in the forest. After all they're must be some kind of tree where ramen was from right? He just had to find it but he was obliviously not going anywhere fast. But he did discover two thing one was that you shouldn't run at living teddy bears because they had a dad and they're dad aren't friendly and two was an extremely good smell that came from somewhere in the forest.
Naruto was following his nose to a small clearing where a man was frying some fish in a pan ...and it smelled so delicious he just couldn't help himself to sniff the air. The man was blond and was wearing black pant and a white shirt with a dark blue loose tie he flipped the fish nearly without a care while he was looking at some scroll
"Hoi boy!" he shouted his eyes never lifting from his scroll "will you stop sniffing around it is really bothersome!"
"So...sorry" naruto replied going to walk away until the man voice stopped him
"don't you want to try it boy?" the man say it was a question but the man already knew the answer so he didn't let naruto respond "it will be ready in only a few second so come here" he say tapping the area beside him to which naruto was happy to oblige
"So kid what is your name?" the stranger asked looking at naruto with a smile. His hair was covering half of his face and he had a cigarette hanging on his lips
"My name is naruto uzumaki believe it!" naruto say with a big grin
"Naruto? Well it seem to fit you fishcake" the man say laughing
"Hey don't laugh about my name!" naruto say with a scowl "and what is your name?" naruto asked hoping that he could make fun of his
"Ha yes sorry my name his sanji I'm the cook on the thousand sunny well I used to be" he say looking up with a aura of nostalgia around him and a smile on his face
"What happened?" naruto asked felling that it was the right thing to do
"We all realized our dreams" sanji say with a smile "and now we are all living a different adventure called life. I decided to look around the world to learn all the recipe I could" he looked at naruto "and in five years from now we will all regroup together to reform our crew to live other adventure" he looked down "it is so unfortunate that robin-chan didn't want to go with me." there was a small silence before he speak again "well no time to dwell on that let eat" he say lifting the pan from the fire
During the meal naruto and sanji spoke about a lot of thing naruto was speaking about the village and the old man Hogake while sanji told him about his adventure on the grand line and the two shared a good time even after the night was set. And for a reason unknown to him sanji let naruto drag him to his apartment
"Here we are sanji this is my home" naruto say opening the door to his three rooms apartment. Sanji looked around it wasn't very clean but it was far from a dump the trashcan could be emptied a bit more often and the wooden floor could use some polish but all in all it was nice
"Aren't you're parent going to be … you know unhappy?" sanji asked walking inside
"Ho that no problem" naruto say "I live alone. I don't know who my parents are" naruto say like it was an everyday thing
"Ho sorry!" sanji say putting down his backpack oh the table
"Ho don't worry about it" naruto say "you didn't know"
Sanji looked at him and even if he smiled sanji could tell that it was forced a bit "well I guess I'm going to sleep now fishcake"
"My name is not ...ha forget it!" naruto say shrugging his shoulder at the end "my bed is over there you can use it tonight"
"What about you fishcake?" sanji say with a raised brow
"Couch" naruto replied simply taking an extra blanket from his drawer
"Nonsense fishcake I have a hammock I just have to tie it somewhere" sanji say taking the blanket from naruto hand and began to install his hammock after it was finish naruto looked at it in awe "do you want to try it" sanji asked with a smile naruto nodded before jumping on the hammock which wasn't a good idea seeing as he fell on his butt making sanji laugh. Naruto scowl a bit before he began to laugh too
Latter That night
Naruto was sleeping on the hammock a leg out and the blanket only halfway hanging on the hammock
sanji was on naruto bed looking at him with a smile before looking up and preparing to grill another cigarette "fishcake sure is a nice boy" he took a long drag before breathing out the smoke in a long stream smiling "and I still have five years in front of me" he say nodding to himself
And with that sanji stayed for five years in konoha training naruto in everything he could from cooking to fighting and more importantly threat women.
But he always knew that one day he would go and this day was today.
"why sanji why?" naruto asked he had changed in the five years he had spent with sanji he was wearing a black suit with a orange undershirt and his hair was pulled back keeping a bit of spikiness at the end
"I told you fishcake I must go" sanji say petting naruto head "the time I had with you was really nice but I have to go now you always knew that this day would come" sanji say
"Then why don't you let me come with you?" naruto asked with tears in his eyes
"I cant I ...just can't. You are not ready fishcake" he says crouching down "but I will come back someday" he hugged naruto who hugged him back "and beside they are a chance that you will live an adventure just like mine"
"But I don't want my adventure" naruto say crying on his shoulder "I want to share your"
"Naruto" sanji say making naruto look at his face "I know how you feel I too had to leave the person that saved me but... but even bird have to grown on their own one day"
"But I'm not a bird" naruto say sniffing
"I know" sanji say with a smile even if his own tears where falling now "become the man I know you can be and then become even better!" he say petting him on his head one last time before beginning to walk away
"Sanji i. i... i... I WILL BECOME A BETTER COOK THAN YOU SOMEDAY!" naruto shouted to him "YOU'LL SEE ONEDAY I... I... I WILL BE THE ONE TO TEACH YOU I SWEAR ONE DAY I WILL!"
"I'm sure you will" sanji say walking out of the gate of the village "but until then I'm still number one" he say with a smile and giving naruto a thump up
"SANJI GOODBYE SANJI!" naruto say waving both arm
two years later naruto is now 13 (yep naruto is a bit older than canon but by a few months he is still younger than gai team but older than the konoha twelve) and had transformed a part of the apartments block he was living in into a small restaurant it wasn't big and it wasn't very popular because of who it belonged to but it was still is.
Most of his customer where travelers and some ninjas so with the chunins exam beginning in a few day he had to make sure the place was worthy of his reputation.. Wells the one he have with the travelers. So here he was cleaning one of the tables waiting while is special was cooking
"Huuuum something smells very good in there!" say a boy voice from outside. Naruto smile while putting his lollipop out of his mouth he didn't change much from two years ago except he was taller now. Having a healthy diet worked wonder for him he was kind of tall for his age looking like he had 14 instead of just 13 "baki-sensei can we take lunch here?" asked the boy
"hum the all-blue?" yep naruto had named his restaurant after sanji dream the all-blue it didn't have much blue but it always was more for the sentimental touch to him than anything else "I heard of this place from some local trader in suna. I never heard this much praise about a simple bowl of soup. I guess we can look at it" the sensei an older man by the sound of it says opening the front door.
The restaurant wasn't very big there were six wooden tables each being simply dressed and each having four chairs there was also a counter. The floor was made of wood and was well waxed the wall were light blue with a third of it was a wooden frame and the roof was white with two small silver chandelier on each side. In front where two small bay window
"Well it looks nice enough" the man that walked in say looking at the decor
"Well it change from suna one it kind of classy while still looking homey" say a girl with blond hair in four ponytail
"thank you I build it all myself" naruto say stopping cleaning the table "I guess you would like to have the menu right?" they all nodded once except the one in the dark jumpsuit or whatever it was that he was wearing he nodded much more than once "it won't be long so just sit to any table you want please" he say walking to the counter to grasp some menus
"Whatever there is on the menu I'm so going to take whatever smell this good" the guy in black say
"Kankuro you don't even know what it is!" say the girl
"Well if its smell that good it can't taste bad" kankuro say
"Ho yeah remember my bottle of vanilla perfume?" the girl asked with a smile
"That don't count!" kankuro shout stepping on the table
"Feet on the ground please!" naruto say japing the menu on kankuro knee making him fall on his chair "thank you"
"Sorry for my brother action" the girl say
"don't worry about it pretty lady" naruto say handing her the menu "it was worth it to have you speak to me" naruto say with a smile directed at the girl "do angel like you have a name or just pretty eyes?" naruto asked making her blush
"It is common manner to give your name first before asking somebody else name" she says trying to hide her blush with the menu
"Oh yes! Forgive my manners my name is naruto and I will be both you're waiter and you're cook for the anytime you come her actually" he say with a wink at temari
"Hey could you like you know stop hitting on my sister here?" kankuro asked
Naruto sigh standing straight "I guess there is no manner on empty stomach" he say making kankuro growl "so what it will be?" naruto asked taking a pen and a notebook
"What smells like that?" kankuro asked
"Today special."Fettuccine primavera with citrus iced salmon"
"I will take that" kankuro say
"Me too" say their sensei
"OK two special what about you two?" he say looking at the girl and at the red haired boy
"I don't care" say the red haired boy
"Well aren't you the bag of sunshine? And for the pretty lady?" he looked at temari
"I guess I will go with the special too sound pretty tasty" she say handing him the menu
"OK four special would you like anything to drink ...and I can't serve alcohol"
"Water then" baki say a bit dejected
"A fruit juice" says the girl and kankuro
"I don't care" say the red haired boy
"ok a double portion of not caring" naruto say walking to the kitchen "it will be ready in a few minute" and sure enough after ten minute he came back with they're order and all looked delicious the first to be served was of course temari but kankuro was the first to dig in. after serving everyone naruto walked behind the counter and fished a lollipop out pulling it in his mouth looking at the four.
The girl berating kankuro who was stuffing himself while their sensei tried his damn best not to have to interact with them and the red haired one was looking at the food like he didn't know what to do before beginning to eat. In truth this was naruto real pay he didn't care much about the money he gained but more about the special moment he was able to give people. He couldn't stop himself from thinking of sanji and all the good time they had together. A stray tear escaped his eyes
"naruto-san are you crying?" asked the girl looking at him with worry and she wasn't the only one they all looked at him kankuro his mouth full of pasta with a clueless expression the red haired looked more like he didn't care but was mostly curious and their sensei like he understood
"Ha don't worry about that" naruto say whipping the tear with the back of his sleeve "I just like that you like my cooking" he say milling
"I don't like it I love it" kankuro say between two bite
"It good" the red haired boy say shocking everyone except naruto
"Well I'm glad" naruto say
After a while another genin team walked in it was lead by a strong looking man with a small beard followed by a lazy kid, a food connoisseur as sanji would say and a pretty ponytailed blond
"Ha asuma-san I was beginning to worry that you wouldn't come" naruto say walking to the counter to get some menu "isn't konohamaru with you? And who are those new faces?"
"This is my genin team shikamaru, ino and chouji who is by the way chouza son" he say pointing to each one as he say they're name
"Chouza son? I didn't know he had one" naruto say with a raised brow "well if he is anything like is old man I'm sure he will like my cooking" he say handing them they're menu and helping ino to sit
"It is so unlike what I heard" ino say looking around
"Ho? And what did you heard?" naruto asked with a raised brow wondering what the villagers where telling about him now
"Well for starter I heard that the floor and wall would be painted in blood and that there would be corpse hanging from the ceiling" say ino trying to remember all the rumor she heard "I also heard that you would cook you're last customers for the new one" she say making kankuro gag on his food
"Tsss stupid villagers like I would cook my customers. I got few enough at it is thank to them" he say with a frown taking his lollipop out of his mouth "sometime I wonder why I stay here" he whispered looking up
"heyf if yu wan yu coul com to una wit us" kankuro say with his mouth full
"sorry I didn't quite get that!" naruto say with a sweat drop
Kankuro swallowed before saying it again "i said you could come to suna with us! I swear that you would have business there" he says before stuffing himself again
"he right you know" baki say taking a sip of water "a cook like you would very well be welcome in suna" he looked at his glass of water "I could even pull some string so that you could serve sake" he say with a sigh at the end to be denied is favorite drink
"Ho...hoy naruto. Please don't listen to them too much!" asuma say looking sheepish "you still got some very loyal customer there"
"I know asuma-san but still" he put his lollipop in his mouth "it would be fun to stay somewhere where you don't have to heard all the crap this village is saying" he took his notepad and his pen "well anyways did you finish reading the menu?"
"Yes I will have that, that and that!" chouji say pointing to the menu
"I will take the usual naruto" asuma say
"The name are all too troublesome to say so I will have the special" shikamaru say
"I'll take the Nuevo rosa spaghetti" ino say. Naruto took all the menus before going to the kitchen to start their dishes
"Ino please don't talk about the rumor you heard about this place please!" asuma whispered to her
"Why? It don't look like he cared much" say ino looking confused
"Ho he is not happy at all to have heard that" asuma assured her "I know him since quite some time now and I know he isn't happy. Or he would have been much more talkative and flirtatious" he put his hand in front of him in a pleading shape "please? I don't know what would happen to me if he was to leave because of one of my genin"
"What do you mean? Why would it be a bad thing for you?" shikamaru asked a bit surprised
"well first of all while is true that he don't have much customer nearly all of them are top of the rank jounins such as kakashi and gai or are very important people like the hyuga clan head and even the hokage... no especially the hokage" he shuddered thinking about is reaction
All 3 genins looked at him with wide eyes "tell me about having connection" ino say in awe
"This is too troublesome" shikamaru say
"What are you all talking about?" naruto asked with a heavy tray on his right shoulder and a smaller one on his left hand
"Ho nothing training schedule and all" lied asuma
"Fine. Here you're order" he says placing each of their dishes in front of them beginning with chouji since it was the heaviest set and finishing with ino dish
"Hum naruto-san?" ino asked unsure of what to say "I'm sorry about ... you know...the rumors and all"
"don't worry about it ino-swan" he say with a big smile making her blush "you're are not at fault here" he took her hand making her blush deepen "just promise me you just won't listen to them anymore okay?" he say lowly to her looking into her eyes making ino blush even more right now she was nearly as red as a tomato. Ino no thrusting her voice just nodded "good!" he let her hand go and walked to the sand sibling table
"Well it look like he is feeling better already" asuma say chuckling
Kankuro looked at naruto with relief "and here I was thinking you were hitting on my sister seriously"
"I did! I'm always serious when I courtesy a lady" he say putting 4 blueberry parfait on the table "here you go compliment of the house" he say winking at the blond girl "by the way pretty lady you still haven't blessed my with your name"
"Its temari" she say leaning forward on the table using her arm to keep her head up in a bored yet flirtatious look "are you're going to call me temari-swan too now?"
"Only if you wish temari-chan" he says winking at her
With team 10 asuma looked at the scene amused, chouji well... you guess what he is doing, shikamaru was finding it too troublesome and ino was going to break the plate if she put more pressure on her fork
"That... that... hussy is like ... totally over him" ino sheeted looking like she could throw the fork at temari any moment now
"What do you care ino don't you like sasuke?" asked chouji between two munch
Ino was blushing a bit "well it it's not like that it's just that ...hum... I say that for asuma-sensei ...yes that it it's for asuma-sensei" she says nodding to herself
"How so?" asuma asked
"If this ...witch seduce him ...hum ... he is going to go to ...suna was it? Well if it does that asuma would be in trouble... yeah that it!" she says proud with herself to have found this explanation
"Yeah right" shikamaru whispered
"What was that?" ino say lifting the bended fork to his face with murderous intent
"I... i said troublesome" shikamaru say sweating
"Yeah that what is think I heard" ino say taking a bite of her food
"Troublesome blond" shikamaru muttered
"you can say that again!" ino say put not for the same reason "naruto-san excuse me please put could I have something to drink pretty pretty please?" she say with puppy eyes
"Of course ino-swan" he says walking to the kitchen
Temari glared at ino. She was enjoying herself since there weren't a lot of boys who flirted with her in suna since she was gaara sister. And dare she say it. She really liked the attention he was giving to her and that little flat chested bratty blond just ruined her fun. Ino for her part was very pleased with herself and it wasn't hard to see
"Taste better than blood" gaara say to himself taking a bit of his parfait. Scaring the hell out of the leaf genins
Later that night naruto washed the plate while remembering his day it was nice especially with temari-chan and ino-swan fighting over his attention. Yep sanji would have been so jealous of him he couldn't help to chuckle thinking about it
And done! Man there was soooo many error heck I can't believe some of them and I know I wasn't caring much at the time but still.
Well hope you liked it. It should be much easier to read now
