Rebirth In The Naruto World - 9 Izumi x Ren?

In the classroom for ninja, you could see most of the girls grouped up at the window looking out at Itachi while screeching to get his attention.

“Itachi is so dreamy”

“He looked at me just now!”

“No, he looked at me!”

As the girls continued to talk about Itachi, Ren was sitting at the other side of the room chatting with Izumi.

“Your brothers really popular”.

“Well, why don’t you go join them?”.

“I don’t think of Itachi like that, if anything I just admire him as a ninja, I think you’re theawesome one, Ren.” She paused with a blush while taking a quick glance at Ren, then continued “Despite having such a genius as a brother, but you don’t let it demotivate you and continue to work harder instead.

Hearing Izumi, he felt a little better as he felt that with his knowledge of the world of Naruto he should have long surpassed Itachi, but instead, he was barely able to match Itachi without the use of Chidori.

“Thanks, Izumi, that makes me feel a little better,” Ren said with a little smile.

“Um, if you’re only going to train, I think you should take a break once in a while”

“Hmm, I guess I’ll take a break from training today, wanna come with me after school?”

“Huh? Y-Yeah! I’ll go!” Unexpecting Ren to ask her, she stutters before responding excitedly.

…

Walking through the streets casually, Ren and Izumi arrive at the park before sitting down on a bench. They didn’t say anything, but they sat there relaxing feeling the breeze of the wind while relaxing. Closing his eyes, Ren felt the most peace since reincarnating into this world. As for Izumi, she was enjoying the little time she had with Ren and also closed her eyes with a smile on her face.

“Thanks for coming with me Izumi.”

“It’s no problem,” She said shyly.

“Ren, are you going to apply to graduate early? I don’t think the academy can teach you anything.”

“I plan to, I can’t afford to waste any time getting stronger, especially with the tensions increasing between the villages.”

Obviously, this was not the real reason he wanted to get stronger, but because he wanted to stop Itachi from going down the same path as he did before. As Itachi was his favorite character and brother, he wanted to do what he could to protect Itachi but obviously, he couldn’t tell Izumi this so he made up a lie.

Ren hears a grumble from Izumi’s stomach as he turns to see her completely red in the face as he asks with a little laugh “Want to go eat some Ichiraku ramen?”

Nodding her head, she says “yes.” as she starts walking embarrassed.

…

After eating ramen with Izumi, he walks her home to find she lives with her mother and then remembers her father was killed in the Kyuubi accident. Remembering this, he couldn’t help but feel pity for the 5 year old girl, who had lost her father at a very young age.

“Do you want me to ask my father to let you live within the clan?”

“I’m fine I feel like I would just be an outcast even if I lived within the clan, but thank you for your consideration.” she smiles happily.
