Kurama and the rest were in the living room just lounging around in the living room, bored out of their minds. Ever since they landed in this dimension, Naruto had never used their full power in battle and it was kinda boring for beasts that could cause tsunamis by waving one of their tails.
They were a lot of powerful people in this dimension but the blonde just wouldn't fight unless it was deemed really necessary.
"We have to do something about this lackadaisical attitude Naruto has developed overtime." Matatabi really cared for Naruto because he was the one that reunited them after all these years and gave them hope but this attitude of his was unbecoming of the boisterous shinobi.
"Yeah, it's been a while since we last saw the Naruto that gave a damn about people." Gyūki knew the blonde had a tendency to butt into people's business, always wanting to help people shoulder their burdens but the current Naruto was a far cry from his former self.
"Do you think he still hasn't gotten over his guilt and regrets?" Son Gokū added his two cents on the hot topic.
"Hey, shouldn't you know why the kid became like this, Kurama? After all, you've been inside him since birth," Isobu, the three-tailed turtle, probed the strongest among them.
Said fox was on its hind legs while his head was resting on his paws with his eyes closed.
"It's a coping mechanism the brat developed overtime and the only way to break out of it depends on him entirely."
Kurama shared a much deeper connection with Naruto than the rest of the Bijūs so he knew the solution to Naruto's problem.
"I don't think I understand." Shukaku was really confused right now.
"All I'm saying is that the brat needs to make new bonds. He needs friends, precious people that would help him overcome his guilt and, in his current mindset, that's impossible."
"I see... He needs to get out there and—"
Whatever Saiken wanted to say was cut short when they all felt a spike in Naruto's chakra level
"Shit!" Kurama cursed under his breath.
The chibi giant took off from the couch and was in Naruto's room a second later. "Snap out of it, Naruto! Naruto!"
Naruto awakened with a gasp to the sight of all nine Bijūs on his bed looking at him with worry filled eyes.
"Another nightmare." It was more like a statement than a question from the orange fox.
"I'm fine, Kurama." Naruto wiped off his face while trying to calm his erratic breath.
"You were releasing a lot of chakra while sleeping."
"Was I?"
"They wouldn't approve of the way you are living." Kurama frowned.
"Shut up, Kurama." Naruto groaned.
"You have to come to terms with the fact that you can't reach the elemental Nations anymore. They would have all turned into white zetsus by now." Kurama said.
"Super Gramps Sage must have a solution." Naruto replied.
"Not without our chakra."
"You don't get it do you? I have been finding a way out of this place for two year now because I'm the only one that can dispel the Mugen Tsukuyomi.I don't know how long it will take before everyone turns into white zetsus."
"This brooding around won't help at all, Naruto. All I'm trying to say is that you should make new friends and, who knows, maybe they could fill that empty space in your heart once again."
"What do you suggest I do, then?" He threw Kurama a flat stare.
"Try to make new acquaintances." Kurama suggested. "Just know that no matter what happens, we are here for you, Naruto."
The other Bijūs nodded in unison
Naruto was secretly happy he wasn't alone in this world that he had the Tailed Beasts with him. They helped him keep a bit of his former self and he's been a little strict with them lately.
"Thank you everyone and I am using this medium to apologise to you all for the rules I set up. From now on y'all are free to be anywhere you want but rule one still stands. Don't destroy my house, ok?"
"Yes! I'm free again! Can I use the backyard?" Shukaku was almost jumping with glee because he liked being in the physical world.
"Yes, you can all use it however you like." Naruto was starting to regret his decision when he saw the faraway look in their eyes.
"I guess it's time I actually change my unemployed status, huh. I think it's high time I created my resumé!" Naruto had a massive grin on his face. "Just hold on guys, Naruto Uzumaki doesn't go back on his words dattebayo!"
(Scene change: Evening)
Issei had a long face on, thinking about his unfulfilled school life on a bridge.
"Will my time at the academy be wasted without a single chance to get some boobs in my hands?"
Issei was so deep in thought he didn't notice he had company.
A black-haired girl in a uniform he's never seen before walked up to him with her hands in front of her interlocked together and her gaze was on the floor.
"U-um, Are you Hyoudou Issei from Kuoh Academy?" She asked timidly.
"Yes, that's my name." Issei replied with a blush. He couldn't help but notice how cute she looked.
"My name is Amano Yuuma," the cute girl introduced herself. She seemed to fidget for a while before she mustered up the courage to say her mind. "Um, are you seeing anyone at the moment, Hyoudou-kun?"
"Not really." Issei said in a carefree manner
"Then, would you please go out with me?"
"...W-What did you say just now?" Issei stuttered. He was really surprised that a cute girl just walked up to him and asked him out.
"I've always seen you pass by here and well... Please go out with me!" The cute girl screamed with her eyes squeezed shut fearing rejection.
Issei was a happy man today. Maybe the most happiest man on ear— scratch that. The day he squeezed some oppai would be declared a public holiday by the gods.
Everyone always thought he'd never get a girlfriend, Hell, Issei knew his chances were slim given his perverted reputation but here he was on this bridge with a cute girl asking him out.
"Yes of course I'd like to, Amano Yuuma-chan." He replied in a heartbeat.
Yuuma had a megawatt smile on her face and Issei couldn't help but blush.
"How's tomorrow afternoon sound?"
"Yeah, that'd be great."
