What came into sight was a young man wearing ordinary cotton clothes. The quality of the cotton clothes was not too high or too bad.
Naruto recognized the man in front of him. He was the clerk who had previously worked in a grocery store and refused to sell his kettle.

Naruto looked dumbfounded. He suddenly asked, "This… how much? I'll get it to you know."
"Ah, no need. I'm just giving it to you. You're welcome."

This sudden scene made Naruto be confused and asked in his mind: "What's going on?"
