As soon as Zhang Miao and Yugao walked into the restaurant, they heard a familiar voice.
"Hey, Ryu, over here!"
Hearing this voice, Zhang Miao turned around and found that Choza was standing not far away, waving at him with a smile.
"Hey, over here!"
Zhang Miao nodded, then quickly walked over. When he walked to Choza's side, he found that Shikaku and Inoichi had already arrived.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao quickly clasped his hands together and bowed to them.
"Sorry uncles, I came late!"
"Haha, it's nothing!"
Upon hearing his words, Shikaku, who had just put down his glass, suddenly burst into laughter. However, when he saw Yugao standing next to Zhang Miao, he immediately revealed a surprised expression.
"Eh? Yugao-chan? So the person that Ryu went to school to find was you!"
"Yes, Shikaku-sensei, sorry for the trouble!" Speaking of this, Yugao hurriedly bowed to Shikaku with a red face.
Seeing this scene, Shikaku laughed again.
"Haha, there is no such thing. Sit down quickly!"
"Thank you, Shikaku-sensei!"
Yugao agreed and sat down. After she sat down, Shikaku turned his eyes to Zhang Miao again.
When he saw that Zhang Miao was still holding a bag in his hand, he immediately revealed a curious expression.
"Ryu, what is the bag in your hand?"
"Hehe!" As soon as Shikaku finished speaking, Zhang Miao grinned. "As my thanks for treating me to barbecue twice, I specially prepared a small gift."
"Gift? For me?" Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Choza could not help but laugh out loud, "Haha, no need, I..."
"Oh, Choza,just take a look at it first!"
Choza was about to refuse, but before he could finish his words, Shikaku interrupted him with a smile.
Choza had always listened to Shikaku's words, because he knew that Shikaku always had his reasons, so he immediately nodded.
"Alright, then I'll see what gift Ryu has prepared for me!"
Hearing Choza's words, Zhang Miao grinned again and took out a wooden sculpture from his bag.
"Actually, it's just a small wooden sculpture I made myself. Please accept my humble creation."
The sculpture Zhang Miao made was a brown-haired youth with two vortices on his cheeks. He was wearing a green coat and the character "eat" was printed on his white shirt.
Next to this youth, there was a person who was more than twice as tall and had a ferocious expression, whose fist was caught by the brown-haired youth with one hand.
Although this youth had his head lowered at this moment, from his clenched fist and the pair of blue-colored chakra butterfly wings stretched out behind him, it could be seen that his heart was burning with fighting spirit!
The scuplture was a rendition of the battle between Butterfly Mode Choji and Cursed Mark Jirobo!
This work of art could be said to have vividly displayed the strength and tenacity of the chubby little guy. It was one of the most popular sculptures that Zhang Miao had ever made.
At this moment, Choza immediately revealed a puzzled expression.
"This is..."
Seeing his puzzled look, Zhang Miao immediately laughed.
"Hehe, this is Choji when he grows up. Isn't he very handsome? Of course, he's always been like this!"
As he spoke, Zhang Miao placed the first wooden sculpture on the table and then took out another one from his bag.
The second one was a sculpture of Choji eating a bag of potato chips with Choza sitting beside him.
After seeing this sculpture, Choza immediately laughed out loud.
"Hahahaha!"
"My son is really a spitting image of myself! Well, I like both of these wooden sculptures very much. Ryu, thank you!
As soon as Choza finished speaking, the system prompt rang in Zhang Miao's ears.
"[Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining a good impression from Choza. Obtained 6-star Elite Jonin, Akimichi Choza Ninja Fragment x10. In the future, whenever the host and Choza eat together, the host will obtain a fixed amount of 10 Ninja Fragments!"
Hearing this prompt, Zhang Miao immediately grinned.
"Hehe, hehehe..."
As he laughed, he took out another wooden sculpture from his bag and placed it in front of Inoichi.
"Uncle Inoichi, this is my first time meeting you. This is my gift as a commemoration of our encounter!"
"Ah? Me too? This is..."
Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Inoichi was stunned. He originally wanted to decline, but when he saw the sculpture in front of him, he immediately swallowed his words of refusal.
At this time, in front of Inoichi, there was a sculpture of a woman with a slender waist and long legs.
She had long blonde hair that reached her waist. Her two hands stretched out in front of her in a square pose. Her beautiful face was full of seriousness. Her small mouth was slightly open, as if she was using the famous Mind Body Switch Technique of the Yamanaka clan.
More importantly, the face of the woman was somewhat similar to Inoichi himself!
Looking at the statue in front of him, Inoichi blinked his eyes in surprise.
"This sculpture... it can't be the appearance of my daughter when she grows up, right?"
"Yes!" Hearing Inoichi's words, Zhang Miao immediately nods his head, "Yes, this is what Ino looks like when she grows up. How is it? I think she's very much look like you, Uncle Inoichi!"
"Hahahaha..." As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, Choza can't help but laugh and nod, "That's right, she really looks like Inoichi, and she is especially beautiful. Hahahaha!"
Looking at Choza who is laughing, Inoichi suddenly blushes and nods at Zhang Miao.
"Well... Ryu, was it? Thank you!"
As soon as Inoichi finished his sentence, Zhang Miao received a system notification.
"[Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining Inoichi's trust. Obtained 6-star Elite Jonin, Yamanaka Inoichi Ninja Fragment x5!]"
Inoichi did not yield the maximum amount of ninja fragments. This was actually within Zhang Miao's expectations. This was because he knew that although Inoichi looked a little shy, he was a real intelligent ninja.
Therefore, Zhang Miao couldn't just earn his full trust and recognition by giving a small wooden sculpture.
Of course, Zhang Miao knew about this, but he was not worried, because now that he had a good start, he could slowly start collecting Inoichi's fragments.
Thinking of this, he immediately nodded at Inoichi.
"As long as Uncle Inoichi permits it, I think that in the future, me and Ino will definitely become good friends. Why don't you consider more and let me be your son-in-law!"
At this point, Zhang Miao immediately knelt down with a thud.
"Father-in-law, please accept this son-in-law's bow!"
Inoichi: "Σ(°△°|||)︴"
