Chapter 6: A Blush and a Promise
Perhaps it was to make up for what they owed Naruto Uzumaki.
Without the slightest hesitation, Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki immediately sent Ren Arakawa several gifts!
[Ding! Congratulations! You have received a donation from Minato Namikaze—Flying Thunder God Technique!]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have received a donation from Minato Namikaze—Big Ball Rasengan!]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have received a donation from Kushina Uzumaki—Adamantine Sealing Chains!]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have received a donation from Kushina Uzumaki—Four Symbols Seal!]
The Minato couple had truly pulled out all their signature moves this time.
This showed just how much they cared about Naruto Uzumaki.
This was truly the greatest paternal and maternal love in the world!
Truly admirable!
[Minato Namikaze: Streamer, I've given you all the jutsu I'm best at. From now on, I'm entrusting Naruto's matters to you!]
[Kushina Uzumaki: Please, you must protect Naruto!]
"No problem, I'll take care of Naruto's safety from now on!"
Ren patted his chest and assured them.
Even if he didn't go out of his way to protect Naruto!
As the crown prince of the Hokage lineage, Naruto would easily survive until the end!
Moreover, worst-case scenario, Naruto Uzumaki was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, a weapon of war for the village.
How could those old guys in Konoha's leadership possibly let him die!
"Wow~ This is so delicious! I've never had such good ramen before!"
While Ren was busy squeezing every last bit from Minato and his wife, Naruto Uzumaki had already finished his bowl of ramen.
He turned to look at the ramen in front of Ren and asked curiously, "Ren, why aren't you eating? The noodles will get soggy if you don't eat them soon."
"I'm not hungry right now. If you want it, you can have it!"
Ren said with a smile.
Hearing this, Naruto's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Really? Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
"Alright, eat slowly. I'm going to step out for a bit nearby!"
Ren generously pushed his bowl of ramen in front of Naruto Uzumaki, then hopped off his seat.
"Then come back soon!"
Naruto didn't think much of it at the time and happily started eating the ramen.
After leaving the ramen shop, Ren didn't actually go to the restroom. Instead, he turned back to look at Naruto's back and sighed, "Sorry, Naruto, I'm cleaner than you. You can pay for the ramen yourself, since you're the one eating it all anyway."
[Minato Namikaze: Holy crap, streamer, that's so unfair! What if Naruto can't afford the ramen?]
Seeing that Ren had left without paying, Minato Namikaze quickly realized his son had been tricked and immediately questioned him.
However, Ren remained very calm. He smiled and said, "Fourth Hokage, don't get excited. I'm doing this to train Naruto!"
[Minato Namikaze: Training Naruto? I don't see it. Are you kidding me?]
Ren said, "You don't understand. I'm teaching Naruto not to trust others too easily. I'm letting him experience the dangers of society in advance. This will indirectly cultivate his vigilance. After all, being tricked in the village won't cause any serious problems, but if he gets tricked by the enemy while on a mission outside, he could lose his life!"
[Minato Namikaze: What you said actually makes a lot of sense; I can't find any reason to refute it!]
Minato Namikaze thought about it for a long time inside the Shinigami's stomach and finally felt that what Ren said seemed reasonable, so he compromised.
As they were talking, Ren had already arrived at the Ninja Academy.
Originally, he didn't want to waste his time here.
But then he thought about it.
Now that he had so many jutsu, it would be too uncomfortable if he didn't find a place to show them off!
Having transmigrated to the Naruto world and obtained such an awesome system, if he didn't find someone to show off to, how could he live up to his status?
(At this moment, Naruto Uzumaki was being brutally beaten by Ichiraku Ramen because he had no money to pay for the ramen.)
Upon entering the ninja academy, Ren quickly found his classroom based on his identity memories.
"Ren, you're finally here! Today is the academy's graduation exam. If you had been a few minutes later, you would have missed this opportunity and had to wait until next year to graduate!"
Seeing Ren enter the classroom, Iruka Umino, who was standing on the podium, immediately looked over: "Isn't Naruto with you?"
"Naruto was eating ramen when I came to the academy. He should be here soon!"
Ren found his seat and sat down.
At this moment, to pay off his debt, Naruto Uzumaki was helping at the ramen shop by washing dishes, mopping the floor, and cleaning the toilets!
Coincidentally.
Ren's seat happened to be right next to a little girl with blue hair, white eyes, and bangs.
That's right!
This little girl was Hinata Hyuga, the perfect girl in the Naruto world.
"Ren-kun."
After Ren sat down, Hinata Hyuga, sitting next to him, weakly greeted him.
"Hinata, long time no see. You've grown into a beautiful young lady. Look at your fair and delicate face—I really want to take a bite."
Ren smiled and greeted Hinata Hyuga.
However, his greeting immediately made Hinata Hyuga blush and lower her head!
[Hyuga Hizashi: Holy crap~ Streamer, are you a devil? Hinata is only twelve years old!]
