As they walked on, The Raikage and his party met Neji, who had been looking for them, who then went to The Raikage and bowed to him and even thanked him for returning his Father's body so that he could be properly buried next to his Mother.
After a few minutes of walking through Konoha, The Raikage and his group came across Ichiraku Ramen bar and decided to have lunch there.
The STORMS-nins quickly positioned themselves around Raman bar when The Raikage and the others sat at the bar.
When The Raikage and his group sat at the bar, Teuchi the Raman chief nearly dropped a large pot full of hot water on to the ground when he turned around to see who was sitting at his stand. While his daughter Ayame, who was at the back getting some more ingredients dropped the things she was carry and gasped in shocked.
Quickly both Ayame and Teuchi bowed in respect to the foreign Kage, after which Teuchi spoke, "Raikage-denka, to what do we own this honour of having you at our humble stand".
"Please!..." spoke The Raikage as he raised his hand to tell that there was no need to bow. "There is no need to be so formal, as I'm just a simple customer and I came here for a simple meal. As I have heard many great things about you famed Raman from a former rival of yours Teuchi-san, who odes by the name Hakkaku (4)".
At the mention of Hakkaku, Teuchi narrowed his eyes as he never forgave Hakkaku for trying to kidnap his daughter in hopes of getting the secret Recipe of his new Uzumaki Supreme Ramen Special.
"And how is Hakkaku?" asked Teuchi with growing suspicion.
"I'm afraid he left Kaminari no Kuni about a year ago to set up shop elsewhere as it seemed that most people didn't like his Raman," replied The Raikage, which caused Teuchi to smile.
"So Raikage-denka what would you and your companions like?" asked Teuchi.
For a minute or two The Raikage and the other all looked at the menu's that were on the bar stand, after which Yugito order a Raman Shrimp, Killer Bee order a Raman Chicken, Mitsuhide ordered a Miso Raman, Saiyuri ordered a Shio Raman, Zhuge Liang ordered a Shōyu Raman. While The Raikage ordered twenty bowls of the Uzumaki Supreme Ramen Special, which of course caused Killer Bee to chuckle, The Raikage's wife Yugito to smack her forehead out of embarrassment and annoyance and The Raikage's three Sensei's to shake their heads and smile. But when Teuchi and Ayame heard this they were shocked as the only person they knew that could each that much Raman was Naruto, since even the Akimichi Clan members could only eat about eighteen bowls of the Uzumaki Supreme Ramen Special. Once they heard him they asked if he was sure about his order to which he nodded, after which both Teuchi and Ayame went to make the Kumo party orders.
As Ayame and Teuchi were making the Raman orders, The Raikage looked around the stand and saw the picture of Naruto. After which he then spoke to Ayame and Teuchi.
"If I'm not very much mistaken that is the young jinchūriki, Uzumaki Naruto, I'm surprised that they a picture of him in your stand like that, since he was banished from this village when he was accused of being a threat to it an-" spoke The Raikage until he was interrupted by Ayame.
"Naruto was not a threat to anyone, he was a kind, loving and gentle boy who was a loyal Shinobi to this village and loved this village despite everything they did to him. The only reason he was banished was because of those blind bigotry fools on the Council and the rest of the idiots in here who saw him as a demon just because he had the Kyuubi inside him, He was like a little brother to me and I won't let you say th-", cried Ayame angrily before she was stopped by her father who then turned to The Raikage.
"Raikage-denka, please forgive my daughter, she just gets very emotional whenever Naruto is mentioned here as he was very close to us and his death hurts us both deeply. Especially since the villagers here tried to celebrate his death when it was announced and sh-" said Teuchi before The Raikage raised his hand to stop Teuchi for apologising and then spoke.
"There is no need to apologise Teuchi-san as I can understand how your daughter feels and if I did sound like I was insulting him I apologise as that was not what I met. I was only making a statement that was all, as I'm well aware of the type of person Uzumaki Naruto was as he was a hero to several key members to the Heavenly Alliance such as Yuki/Haru no Kuni (Snow/Spring Country), Takigakure (Hidden Waterfall) as well as our newest candidate to join the Heavenly Alliance Nami no Kuni (Wave Country) and all of them regard him as a hero to them and I have heard much about him from the leader of Takigakure Shibuki and from Lady Daimyo Koyuki and I'm glad to see that there are at least some people who regard him as a hero here", spoke The Raikage.
After which they continued to speak for a while, as Ayame and Teuchi cooked the Raman, where once they were done The Raikage and the others continued to speak for a while as they ate their Raman and then paid for their meals and left the stand.
After their meal The Raikage and his escorts went to his personal airship and spent the next remaining hour there until they left the airship and headed back to the Council room.
-In the Council Room-
After the two hours recess the Konoha Council was reformed in the Council room and ready to begin the treaty talks again. Tsunade had also made certain that the Civilian members of the Council (or more specifically Ashikaga Shin)kept their mouths shut during the talks and to only speak when they had something useful to say, with the threat of having them interrogated by both Anko and Ibiki as well as by Ino and Yakumo for a month.
Soon after everyone had entered the Council room, The Raikage and his party arrived, but unfortunately The Raikage was not in the best on moods when he entered the Council room or to be more precise. He looked furious, judging by the way he stormed into the Council room with a furious look in his eyes (as that was the only part of his face they could see thanks to the mask he wore).
