"Did you travel anywhere interesting, at least?" you ask.
"We mostly stuck around the Fire Country, but made a couple of excursions into the Rice Country to gather information." Sasuke answers. "We also went to the home of the toad summons, Mount Myoboku a couple of times to train there."
"See? That sounds cool, right?" Kiba says. "You really need to learn how to make things sound interesting, Sasuke. You can make a story out of anything, trust me."
At the restaurant's entrance, you see Kurotsuchi walk in. She comes over to your table and sits down.
"The Hokage pointed me in this direction after he was done speaking to me." she tells you. "So I can finally try your uncle's renowned cooking."
After a while, your uncle brings out dishes of food for everyone, and you all start eating. After trying a bit, Kurotsuchi addresses you.
"Well Kon, this is pretty impressive. Katsuki definitely has to come down here to try it." Kurotsuchi's face turns more serious. "But that's not why I'm here. Kon, your Hokage wants you to come with me back to the Village Hidden in the Stone, to see what you can do to maintain relations. After this incident, I don't know if my grandfather will even bother trying to work with the Leaf any longer."
