AN: Fast? Am I fast? I'm totally fast! Yes, I am!
Chapter 2:
Hello, Hope's Peak Academy
Naruto peered down the empty hallway. He had already walked past the main hall, so now it was only a matter of finding that damn gym. Thankfully, the instructions were pretty straightforward. Still, he didn't want to draw attention to himself. Like, at all. He was on a mission here, and attracting attention would only complicate things.
'But it might be too late for that already….'
The headmaster and Tengan were already keeping their eyes on him, so it was probably a moot point by now.
'Whatever. It's not like they'll ever find out where I'm really from anyway.'
No one could know that.
Putting that aside for now, Naruto started to make his way down the hall for the gym. As he turned the corner, though, he suddenly bumped into someone. Acting fast, Naruto not only steadied himself but also made sure to grab the other person by the wrist before they went tumbling down.
'I need to be more focused on my surroundings,' Naruto thought with a shake of his head. It was here where the sound of someone crying reached his ears. Looking over to the person he had bumped into, Naruto realized that it was a girl. A very beautiful one at that. She had long, choppy, dark purple hair that was cut unevenly. She had light, greyish-purple eyes with a beauty mark under her left eye. She wore some kind of nurse outfit and had most of her left arm and right leg bandaged up.
All in all, this girl had a very peculiar appearance.
Naruto then remembered that she was crying.
"I-I'm so sorrrrrrrrryyyyyy," she apologized to him, stepping back and clutching her arms over her chest. "I-I didn't think anyone else was coming, s-so I wasn't paying attention, and…...a-and I'm sorry!"
Naruto scratched his head. This girl was…...odd, to say the least. He couldn't put his finger on it either. It was almost like…..she was expecting him to lash out at her.
Huh.
But first things first.
"You don't have to apologize so much, ya know? It's not like it's your fault. I was the one who ran into you. So it's cool, okay?"
The girl's eyes widened. "Aaaaaahhh!"
Naruto had to take a step back. "W-What? What's wrong?"
She was staring at him like he was from another planet. "I-I…..I wasn't expecting you to a-apologize…...hehehehe." She then started giggling to herself, her face bright.
Naruto…..was stumped. This girl had gone from being teary-eyed, to confused, to happy in the span of a few seconds. That was a lot of emotions right there.
She twiddled with her fingers. "Hehehe. I-I'm so happy…..."
It was Naruto's eyes that widened this time. That pose of hers…...it reminded him a lot of a certain Hyuuga friend of his back in his world. In fact, the more he looked at this girl, the more he realized that she and Hinata looked very much alike.
But he needed to perish those thoughts. This girl wasn't Hinata. Trying to compare the two would be unfair to both of them.
"U-Um….." The girl began to squirm under his gaze. "I-Is there a reason you're staring a-at me like that?" Her eyes widened again. "Aaaaaahhh! It's because I'm so unsightly, isn't it? I-I'm sorry!" She clutched her head in fear. "W-Would it make you feel better if I took my clothes off?"
What the fuck!?
"T-That's not it!" Naruto did his best to try and calm the girl down. "You don't have to do that. Seriously. I was just thinking of something is all. It's not your fault."
The girl began to calm down, putting Naruto at ease. The blond felt like he had wasted so much energy just talking to this girl. But at the same time, he didn't think of it as annoying.
Weird.
"Anyway, what are you doing out here?" Naruto looked past her toward the door behind her. It was labeled as the gym. "Are you going to the gym too?"
"Y-Yes. I'm going to the entrance ceremony for this year." She clutched her arms again. "B-But I was so nervous about going in and meeting so many new people, that I froze in fear. I haven't been able to going in even though it's almost time for the ceremony to begin…..."
Huh. So this girl was going to be a classmate of his, huh?
Naruto smiled. "I see. Well, that's where I'm going too. Looks like we're going to be classmates."
The girl looked at him. "R-Really?" She couldn't help but smile a little as well. "That's amazing! I didn't think I would be meeting another classmate so soon!"
Naruto shrugged a little. "I guess. I'm Uzumaki Naruto."
"Ah! M-My name is Tsumiki Mikan." She blushed a little. "I hope we can get along from now on…..."
"Yeah, likewise."
The now named Mikan seemed pleased by his words.
Well, so much for not making friends here.
Deciding to push that side for now, Naruto motioned for the door.
"Shall we?"
Mikan nodded. "Y-Yes!"
She now had more confidence to face the rest of her classmates. She only hoped that they were as nice as Naruto was.
And so, the two teens entered the gym.
The gym was decorated for a typical entrance ceremony. There was nice carpet laid out, chairs had been put up, and banners were raised. All had the Hope's Peak Academy insignia on them.
There were other teens waiting inside already. There were fourteen in total, seven guys and seven girls. They were a pretty even class then, since Naruto and Mikan made a total of sixteen students.
The other students turned to them when they entered, but then they settled to going back to their business when they saw who it was.
Naruto scratched his cheek. 'So these guys are the so-called Ultimates, huh…...'
They were some of the country's best, brought here together in order to polish their talents further. It was hard to imagine what kind of people they were. Then again, he was now considered an Ultimate. And so was Mikan now that he thought about it. And she didn't seem bad at all.
"T-There are so many new people here," Mikan whispered, twiddling with her fingers.
Naruto shrugged. "Don't worry about it. They're just like you and me. We're all on the same level, aren't we?"
Some laughter reached their ears. They turned to see a guy walking up to them. He was dressed in casual clothes, similar to Naruto. He was tall and rather skinny. He had light grey-green eyes, and sickly pale skin. His hair was shoulder-length and naturally wavy, of an unnaturally pale off-white color. It gave him a rather ghostly appearance, if Naruto was being honest.
"That's a rather optimistic thing to say," he spoke as he neared them. "But then again, that's the attitude I'd expect from an Ultimate."
Naruto tilted his head ever so slightly. "Thanks…...I guess?" He didn't know how to take that comment, so he brushed it off. "But it's true. We're all the same here, aren't we?"
The new guy crossed his arms. "Well, among you, I guess that'd be true. But I don't think that comment would ring true if spoken about me."
"Why?"
He sighed. He looked rather disappointed about something. "I only got in here due to luck. That's rather stupid, wouldn't you agree?"
"L-Luck?" Mikan was confused. "How does that work…...?"
He chuckled sheepishly. "Haven't you heard? Every year, Hope's Peak Academy holds a lottery out of completely ordinary students. Whoever wins gets to join the school as the Ultimate Lucky Student. That's basically what I am. Just lucky."
"I-Is that so?" Mikan was rather surprised about this but didn't comment further.
Naruto just took it in stride. It was rather unusual to consider something as vague as luck as a talent, but oh well. The school must have its reason for wanting to research such a skill.
"Oh, but how rude of me." He shot them a smile. "I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Komaeda Nagito. It's nice to meet you."
"Yeah, same. I'm Uzumaki Naruto."
"I-I'm Tsumiki Mikan. I-I hope we can get along…..."
The newly named Nagito smiled some more. "Mhmm. I recognize you, Tsumiki-san. You're the Ultimate Nurse, aren't you? Many people were discussing your achievements online. You're rather popular, aren't you?"
"E-Eh?" That seemed to throw Mikan for a loop. "T-They were? Why?"
"Everyone is rather popular online, you know." Nagito then looked down, smiling to himself. "Of course, with the exception of me."
While Mikan was freaking out about her sudden popularity, Naruto was more than happy to congratulate her.
"Congrats, Mikan. I didn't know you were so awesome."
Still, he had to wonder how someone so skittish could become a nurse of all things.
'Man, Sakura-chan would have a field day with this.'
Mikan was suddenly freaking out about something else entirely. "E-Eh? M-Mikan? M-My first name!?"
Now, Naruto was lost. "Uh. Yeah? That is your name, right?"
"A-Ah! I-It's just the first time anyone has called me by my first name before…..."
Naruto shrugged. "Oh. Okay."
He didn't see the big deal with that. He called all of his friends by their given names.
Nagito couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha. You're a strange one, Uzumaki-kun. Could it be…...are you into seducing women?"
Mikan turned bright red.
Naruto gave the boy a dull stare. "I honestly have no idea what you're talking about."
"Hmm. Is that so?" Nagito let the matter drop and said, "Well, I must admit something. I was able to find information on just about everyone in our class. Except you of course. I only saw your name being mentioned once or twice, but nothing concrete."
Naruto wasn't all that surprised. He had read up on this "Internet." It housed all the information people could ever need or want. It was honestly kind of scary. But of course, there was no way the Internet would have anything on him. It hadn't even been a month since he had arrived to this world.
But damn that Tengan! He hadn't bothered to tell the blond about this beforehand. He would have followed Nagito's example and looked up the others if he had known.
Whatever. Nothing he could do about it now.
"Well, that's good. If everyone knew about me, I wouldn't exactly live up to my title."
"Oh?" Nagito was genuinely intrigued now. "What is your title then?"
Naruto sighed and looked away. It still sounded silly to him, but hiding it here would probably bring more problems than it would solve. Might as well just get it over with.
"I'm the Ultimate Ninja."
Mikan squeaked. "N-Ninja? You're really a ninja?"
"Yep."
"I-I didn't know any existed still…..."
Naruto smirked. "Oh, we're around…..."
Sorta.
Humming, Nagito looked over Naruto's attire, noting the orange.
"That is rather…..surprising to hear."
That changed Naruto's mood completely. He grumbled. "You don't like the orange either, I'm guessing."
Nagito smiled, trying his best to look innocent. "Oh my. Looks like I've been caught."
Bastard, at least try to hide it.
"I-I think it looks great, N-N-N-Naa…..Uzumaki-san!"
Poor girl. She had tried to use his first name, but it looked like she still couldn't get there.
Still, Naruto was more than happy to accept the compliment. And so, he patted the girl on the head.
"Thanks, Mikan! I knew you could accept the awesomeness of the orange!"
Mikan giggled, fully delighted to be praised and petted like this. It was the first time anyone had been so kind to her, and it brought a great feeling to her heart.
Nagito found the whole exchange to be amusing. "Well, I'm not sure how helpful I can be, but if you need help talking to the others, I'm more than happy to lend a hand."
"The others, huh?" Naruto glanced around the gym, seeing the rest of the class minding their own business. A part of him knew that he was already messing things up. This wasn't how things were meant to go. He wasn't supposed to be friendly with these guys. His normal carefree personality won out, though. That's why he felt great bonding with new people.
"They're all pretty wild out and eccentric, but I'm sure you can win them over," Nagito said.
Well, if Nagito and Mikan were any indication, then Naruto was sure the rest of his new classmates were bound to be crazy too. It suited him just fine, though. Normal was overrated.
But before they could continue, a shout echoed throughout the gym. It was one of the girls. A very well-endowed girl at that. She had a very athletic and curvaceous body. She had tan skin, dark grey eyes, and very unkempt chestnut hair. She wore a short-sleeved white shirt with the top few buttons undone, exposing a large amount of cleavage. She also had on a red miniskirt and cream-colored loafers.
The girl seemed to be picking a fight with one of the guys. A very masculine guy at that. Seriously, the guy could give the Raikage a run for his money in terms of muscles. He had on a white tank top under a blue track tracksuit, with the jacket wide open. He had chains around his neck with a whistle hanging from the middle. And…..was a blue electric aura coming out of his eyes?
'What the heck…?' Naruto had no better reaction than that, blinking as the two suddenly began to trade blows with one another. Chairs were sent flying off, and some of the floor began to tear apart.
"W-What is this!?" a girl with dark red hair exclaimed. She had light freckles across her cheeks and had olive green eyes. She was holding a camera. She was dressed in some kind of pale green uniform, probably from her old school. "These guys are crazy!"
Nagito didn't seem fazed at all. "Oh, I guess Owari-san is as hot-blooded as I heard…."
"I-Is this the famed 'Japanese Lunchtime Rush'!?" a beautiful pale blonde shouted in excitement. She was dressed the fanciest out of all the teens here. Her blue eyes were dancing with elation as she watched her two classmates fight with one another.
"U-Um…...Miss Sonia, it isn't lunchtime yet," one of the other students informed her, pointing to the obvious. It was another guy, and he had hot pink hair, probably dyed. His teeth were pretty sharp too, reminding Naruto of that shark guy from the Akatsuki. He wore a blue jumper with several hot pink markings and a black cap to go along with it.
Another girl, this one with long multi-colored hair, beamed brightly. "Oh la-la-~ They're certainly going at it~ This building won't last for long if they go all out!"
Despite her words, she didn't seem worried at all. What a weird girl.
"Passion is certainly being shot to the roof, if I say so myself," a short round boy commented with some laughter. He was dressed in a typical chef's outfit, giving Naruto the impression that the guy was a chef as well. But who knew?
"I'm gonna get you this time!" the well-endowed girl cried out as she went in for a kick. Unfortunately for her, her opponent was more than ready for her, and counterattacked with a powerful blow to her stomach that had her skidding back across the gym.
Naruto raised an eyebrow at this. They weren't moving nearly fast enough for him to not see their movements. But the power behind that punch…...it was impressive to say the least.
Mikan was shaking from her spot. "Nyasaaah…...this is bad. What if they get hurt too badly? I-I have to help them!"
"Heh." The muscular student scoffed. "That punch wasn't strong enough to break bones, so don't worry about it!"
"Hehehe." The girl with multi-colored hair giggled. "So he says, but I'm sure that punch would break anyone else's bones off!"
Another short student, this one blond and in a suit, scowled. "Don't say it all carefree, dumbass."
"Your speed is passable, but it's still not good enough." The muscled student cracked his knuckles. "Your strength is severely lacking. You cannot hope to win against me like this, Owari."
"T'ch…..s-shut up." The girl struggled to stand. "I'll make sure to beat you. Mark my words!"
"Heh. I commend your spirit!"
Naruto shook his head. "Well, this is certainly something….."
He didn't think he'd find people fighting in this world. At least, fighting on this level. In all his time here, with all the people he's met, he found them to be just normal civilians. The only exception to that was perhaps Tengan.
But these two…...
Nagito crossed his arms and nodded to himself. "Yes. I expected nothing less from them. They really are Ultimates."
Naruto glanced at the boy but said nothing. His opinion of Nagito was…..well, he really didn't know what to think of the guy. He seemed nice, but there was a part of him that was telling him that there was more to Nagito than what he was seeing. And when it came to judging others, Naruto thought he was usually spot on.
The other blonde in the gym, this one short and kiddish in appearance, snickered. "They should have taken each other out right here and now. It would have been more exciting that way."
Naruto simply sweatdropped. Now he knew who the vicious one here was.
"Alright, kids. Break it up."
All sixteen students turned to the stage of the gym where a man now stood. He looked pretty relaxed despite the fact that part of the gym was now destroyed. He had a thin mustache and goatee and ragged blond hair with blue eyes. He wore a white tuxedo, with a green undershirt and black vest top, with a blue, almost gray tie. He also wore a white hat.
"This is no time to be fighting. It's supposed to be the entrance ceremony, after all."
"You're the one who decided to show up late," the guy in the dark suit said, looking pretty annoyed.
The man chuckled. "Yeah, sorry about that. I had a killer hangover. It took me longer to recover this time than usual. Not sure why."
The sixteen students all had the same thought: was this guy really their new teacher? If so, they were screwed.
"Anyway." The man made himself comfortable on the stage, sitting by the edge. "We'll be together for the next year at least, so we should get to know each other." He pointed at himself. "Many of you already this, but the name's Kizakura Koichi, and I'll be your homeroom teacher."
Naruto recognized the name. Tengan told him how this guy was the main scouter for the school. If it weren't for the fact that he had been in police custody, Naruto would have met him as well.
"So, who wants to go next? Name and title, so the others know why you're here."
"Oh! Ibuki wants to go first!" The girl with the multi-colored hair was the first one to jump at the opportunity. "Hehehe. Ibuki is Mioda Ibuki! Ibuki's tittle is the Ultimate Musician! Ibuki likes to rock out, so anyone willing to join Ibuki, you can!"
The beautiful blonde from earlier clapped. "Spectacular!" She noticed the others all looking at her and bowed. "Hello there! My name is Sonia Nevermind. I am the Ultimate Princess. It is a pleasure to finally be here."
Naruto had to do a double-take. This girl was a princess?
'I didn't think they still had those in this world…...'
It looked like he still had a long ways to go when it came to knowing the inns and outs of this new world he was in.
The guy with hot pink hair whistled and shot them a thumbs up. "Since Miss Sonia has gone, I guess it's my turn next. I'm Soda Kazuichi, and I'm the Ultimate Mechanic. Nice to meet you all!"
Well, he was certainly very eager, wasn't he?
The girl with short red hair stepped up next, giving a friendly if not nervous smile. "I'm Koizumi Mahiru. I'm the Ultimate Photographer. Let's all get along."
Naruto found her to be the most "normal" here so far. Other than that, he had no strong opinions about the girl.
"Mhmhmm. So many great things to look at here." The short round guy in the chef outfit spoke up next. "My name is Hanamura Teruteru. I'm known as the Ultimate Cook." He grinned. "But I'd rather if you guys called me the Ultimate Chef instead. It just sounds more…..appealing, ya know?"
This guy was just giving off a dangerous vibe, wasn't he?
"H'mph. Idiot." The kiddish blonde with twin tails sneered, her face darkening.
It was enough to make Teruteru look nervous. "U-Um…..did I hear that correctly?"
She decided to ignore him. "I'm Saionji Hiyoko. And I'm the Ultimate Traditional Dancer."
It looked like that was all she had to say.
'What a strange girl,' Naruto thought. But then he realized that he could say the same about most of the people here.
Including him. So maybe he shouldn't talk.
"Yo!" the well-endowed girl from before went up next. It seemed like she had recover from the devastating blow she had taken earlier. "The name's Owari Akane! Apparently I'm the Ultimate Gymnast! Nice to meetcha!"
"Apparently"? This girl was just…..she was the type who focused more on fighting than anything else, wasn't she? Well, it wasn't like Naruto disliked those kinds of people.
"Gahahaha!" The muscular guy let out a boisterous laugh while holding his head. "I am the Ultimate Team Manager, NIDAI NEKOMARU! Make sure to remember it!"
This guy was just…..loud. He reminded Naruto of Lee and Guy-sensei, especially with the fighting. Naruto had a feeling he was going to get along just nicely with him.
He forgot that he wasn't supposed to be making friends here, but let's just move on.
The next person to introduce themselves was a girl with long, silver hair, which was tied into two braids, and intense bright red eyes. She was standing off to the side of the gym, all by herself.
"My name is Pekoyama Peko. I am the Ultimate Swordswoman. It is nice to meet you all."
She was totally the silent and cool type. In some ways, Naruto was reminded of Neji's and Sasuke's demeanor back in the day. He just hoped she wasn't stuck up like they had been.
Right after her was the short blond in the dark suit.
"Name's Kuzuryu Fuyuhiko. I'm the Ultimate Yakuza."
Wow. His introduction was even less friendly than Hiyoko's.
But the announcement of his title had some of the others murmuring among themselves.
Naruto turned to Mikan. "Is there something up with this guy?"
Before the girl could answer, Nagito beat her to the punch. "Eh? You mean you don't know? That's surprising, Uzumaki-kun. Everyone in the country should know of the Kuzuryu clan."
Naruto shook his head. "Well, I don't."
Nagito hummed. "I see." He seemed to be thinking about something for a moment, but then continued. "Put simply, the Kuzuryu clan is the largest criminal syndicate in Japan. They have over 30,000 members in their group. And Kuzuryu-kun is the heir to that clan. That's why he's the Ultimate Yakuza."
So he was a clan heir, huh? Naruto had experience dealing with those.
One of the students that hadn't said a word up to this point was up next. He was rather short and fat, had light brown hair, hazel eyes, and rosy cheeks. He wore a rather standard attire unlike most here.
"I'm Mitarai Ryota. I'm the Ultimate Animator."
His introduction was brief and to the point. It made it hard for Naruto to give his opinion on the guy.
"Hahaha, I guess I should go next, huh?" Nagito waved at the others and smiled. "My name is Komaeda Nagito. It's a pleasure to finally meet you all Ultimates in person." He looked down. "My talent is nothing special. I'm simply lucky. That's why I'm called the Ultimate Lucky Student."
Hiyoko tapped her cheek. "What kind of talent is that?"
"Now, now." Koichi raised his hand and waved at the girl. "You guys can get to know each other better later. This is only for introductions, remember?"
Hiyoko huffed but said nothing else.
"U-Um." Mikan began to twiddle with her fingers as she got the courage to make her introduction next. "M-My name is Tsumiki Mikan, and I'm the Ultimate Nurse. I-If you get hurt, please don't hesitate to rely on me."
She was definitely a lot like Hinata alright. Soft-spoken, but also very kind. It was enough to make Naruto smile.
"Kehehe. I guess the time has come for you fools to know of my existence, hm?"
Naruto's attention went to the last male student, other than himself, who had yet to introduce himself. He was dressed in a dark school uniform, which was heavily accessorized. His entire left arm was covered in bandages, and had a his right eye was red, and he had a scar running down his left eye, similar to Kakashi. A long purple scarf was around his neck, which covered the lower part of his face. He had dark hair with pale grey streaks through it, and a poof of hair that stuck up and was curly.
He clutched his fist and raised his other hand forward.
"You may call me…...Tanaka Gundham! May you never forget it, for it is the name that will one day rule this world! My title on this plane is…...the Ultimate Breeder! But my true identity is the one and only Supreme Overlord of Ice! Bow before my power, fools! Fuhahahahahahahaha!"
Four hamsters suddenly shot out from his scarf, all taking position on his shoulder and cheering alongside him.
Naruto had to scratch his head, feeling even more confused than when he first met Mikan. And that was saying something.
'This guy is just…...'
He had no right words to describe him.
The others seemed to be very confused as well, except for Hiyoko who looked creeped out. And, of course, Nagito who was still smiling.
Sighing, Naruto decided to be the one to talk next.
"Yeah, well, I'm Uzumaki Naruto. My title is the Ultimate Ninja. Nice to meet you guys."
The others all took this in, with Akane giving him a once-over. She could feel it. This guy was strong. It made her want to fight him on the spot.
Koichi nodded. "Good, good. Now, for the last one." He looked over to the final girl who had been sitting down since she had arrived. She was dressed in a dark hoodie and skirt while she smashed the buttons on some handheld console. Naruto had some knowledge about those devices, referred to as video games. It was the first time he was seeing one in person, though.
The girl frowned when she got a game over, but then looked around the room when she saw the others staring at her.
"Ah." She seemed to understand. There was a slight pause. "I'm Nanami Chiaki, the Ultimate Gamer. Nice to meet you."
There was another pause before she turned back to her game.
She was both polite and chill at the same time. An interesting combo.
Koichi got up to his feet. "Well, that makes sixteen then. You are now part of the 77th class of Hope's Peak Academy. Accept that with pride. And make sure to let your talents blossom even more during your years at this school. With that, I'm sure you'll be able to find the hope that brought you here."
Nagito chuckled. "I agree with that."
Hiyoko rolled her eyes. "No one asked what you think, weirdo."
Mikan fiddled in place. "I-I don't think insulting each other is a good thing to do…..."
"Shut it, pig face!"
"P-Pig face?" Mikan slumped down. "I-I don't have a pig face….."
Naruto patted her head some. "Don't worry about it, Mikan. You don't have a pig face. She's just trying to get to you."
Hiyoko turned her sights on him. "Huuuuh? What did you say-!?"
She was cut off by Gundham who let out a massive gasp. "You fiend! Just what kind of creature are you!?"
Naruto blinked and looked at the guy. "What? Are you talking to me?"
The breeder settled into a fighting stance. "Speak at once, before I decimate your very existence!"
Naruto had no idea what he was talking about.
Chuckling, Nagito decided to fill him in. "I think he's asking why you have those markings on your cheeks, Uzumaki-kun." He paused for a moment. "To tell you the truth, I was rather curious about them myself."
"Huh? Markings?" Naruto touched his cheeks. "Are you talking about my birthmarks?"
"Just what sort of creature birthed you!?" Gundham cried out.
Naruto gained a tic mark on his head. "Oi! Take that back! My kaa-chan was a wonderful person!"
"Foul beast…...don't get any closer!"
"Do you want me to punch you!? Cause I'll punch you!"
Sonia seemed to be enjoying the spectacle herself. "Oh my! This intense feeling of friendship…...they're such wonderful friends!"
Mahiru sweatdropped. "I…..I don't think that's what's happening right now…..."
"Hey, wait a second!" Akane jumped into the fray. "If you're going to fight, I'm joining in!"
"Ha!" Nekomaru picked his nose. "Did you not learn anything from our practice session?"
Ibuki was practically bouncing in place. "This place is so lively! If I had to write a song about it, it'd be titled, 'Sunrise at the Gym'!"
"What the hell kind of title is that!?" Kazuichi said, looking at the girl like she was crazy.
"Y-You can do it, U-Uzumaki-san!" Mikan was cheering for Naruto as the blond and Gundham were practically butting heads with one another by this point. "I-I know you can defeat him!"
Teruteru sighed happily. "Two men, pushing against one another so closely…..ah, the passion! It's magnificent!"
Fuyuhiko crossed his arms and glanced to the side. "H'mph. Idiots."
Peko had no comment, and neither did Ryota.
Chiaki merely lowered her game console for a moment before bringing it back up.
Nagito...well, he just smiled. A lot.
Koichi scratched his head under his hat as the gym practically descended into chaos, with Naruto, Gundham, and Akane leading the charge.
"Oh boy. I sure have my hands full, don't I?"
Yes, this was going to be a very interesting year indeed.
Welp. Naruto already broke down and started bonding with the others. But really. What else was going to happen in this scenario?
Anyway, I hope I got all the characters right. They're honestly fun to write since they're so crazy.
But that's all from me. Hope you enjoyed the first introductions and interactions with Naruto and the others.
Till next time.
