Naruto stared at the waving appendage and shook his head. Youkais tend to act weird when they are around him.
"What is it, Gremory? Don't tell me it's a biology based topic?" Naruto asked.
Rias cringed at that. "Not at all, Sensei. I was just wondering what faction you belong to. You are in my territory and I hope you wouldn't mind me trying to keep it secure," she added.
Naruto scoffed at that. Secure my foot. This place was crawling with crows and stray bats. "I belong to no faction," he nonetheless answered.
Rias was happy he didn't belong to anyone. This was perfect.
"Naruto-san, I presume you know about the three great factions?" Rias quickly suppressed her excitement when Naruto nodded. "How would you like to become a member of my peerage?" she asked with hope in her eyes.
She hasn't seen Naruto in action but judging from what Issei told them about him, he was really good at hand to hand combat and he could control fire.
"Not interested." he didn't even think about it twice.
Rias wasn't expecting him to decline her that quickly. "But think about it, you'll have enhanced strength, durability, and your overall life span will increase."
"No thanks," he said.
"But..." Whatever she was about to say was interrupted.
"The answer is no, kid," he finalized.
"Naruto-san seems adamant about not becoming a Devil, do you love your humanity that much?" Akeno said with her ever-present beautiful smile.
"Yes, Canoe," Naruto said.
"Canoe?" she asked.
"Isn't that your Name? Canoe Jumongi? Or was it Himonji?" Naruto tried to remember her name.
"It's Akeno, Akeno Himejima," Akeno giggled when Naruto got her name wrong. "Keno would have been much Nicer than Canoe," she said.
"Keno it is," Naruto said.
"Well, we just wanted to know what your stance was."
"Don't worry, kid. If I wanted you all dead, you would have been dead a long time ago," he stated offhandedly.
Rias forced a strained smile at that. He speaks as if he could destroy them all with a casual flick of his fingers. Rias hated that.
"I would like to have a spar with you sometimes. We could help each other." She tried to get him into a fight. The rest were up for it, too, except Issei.
"A spar? You are too young to challenge me, little girl." he scoffed.
Rias grit her teeth in exasperation. Her favorability towards him was plummeted rapidly
"You mind your Devil business and I'll mind mine, okay?" he added.
It was official. She disliked Naruto Uzumaki.
"Well then, thank you for having us, Naruto-san." She bowed as she made her way to the front door with all the others behind her. Koneko's eyes widened a bit before she stared at Naruto's blue orbs. There was a scent around Naruto, A really familiar scent at that. It was the scent of a chakra around Naruto and his house was really warm. She was going to miss that.
"Naruto-san, you..." she shook her head as it was impossible for her older sister to be in Kuoh.
"Hyoudou," Naruto called Issei who froze when he heard his name.
Naruto hadn't said a word to him this morning and he thought he had escaped the wrath of the blonde ninja. Who was he kidding, the dude was his Neighbor.
"We have a lot to discuss, Issei," Naruto said in a sing-song voice. The image of a man wearing a mask in a Ninja Garb appeared behind Naruto.
"Oh shit! He used my name! I'm toast!" He lamented in his mind. "Ye-yes Se-Sensei, we certainly have," he replied as he closed the front door and Naruto was left alone in his house.
He specifically told Issei NOT to tell anyone about his tutelage but he did so anyway. Naruto had the feeling Oppai had something to do with why he spilled and he was going to use Oppai against him in such a way that he would never look at Oppai the same way again.
His musing was cut short when the smell of something burning reached his nose.
"What's that smell?" he asked no one in particular. Were the neighbors cooking something or... His eyes widened as he took off at lightning speed to the kitchen. The whole room was dark with smoke. He channeled wind chakra to his hands and clapped hard. A gust of wind pushed all the smoke away.
"M-my, My Ramen!" he cried.
(With Kuroka)
"Nya~? I thought I heard Naruto-kun's voice," she said to no one in particular.
Vali stared at her exasperatedly.
"Maybe I should pay him a visit? I do miss him after all nya~"
Vali wondered who this Naruto guy was that had Kuroka so pumped. Hell, she didn't even spew the nonsense she normally did when she saw him anymore, which was great in his opinion. All he wanted was to do was fight strong people!
The Red One isn't strong enough to even gain his attention.
"Vali-kun, it's unhealthy to deny a woman when she wants you balls deep inside her," a certain black-haired man with blond streaks said.
There's another perverted old man. Azazel
"I think it's high time I dealt with Kokabiel. That guy has been a major pain in my ass," Azazel said seriously.
Sometimes, Vali often forgets that this perverted old man was the leader of the Grigori.
"Well if that is all, Vali-kun, I'm going nya~" Kuroka waved at him before a magic circle teleported her.
"She has been hanging around Kuoh lately," Azazel said.
"Yeah, she's keeping tabs on a human," Vali Revealed.
"A human?" he questioned.
"Yes."
"And you're not interested?"
"I'm only interested in strong people. I have seen a photo of him once and he looked very disappointing."
"Looks can be deceiving," Azazel said.
"I'll be taking my leave, Azazel." Vali summoned a magic circle and teleported to wherever he had in mind.
Azazel relaxed into his chair. It looks like it was time to meet the Red one. Maybe he could go see this Naruto guy himself. Who would name their son after a ramen topping?
(Back in the Uzumaki Mansion)
"It's Maelstrom!" Naruto suddenly screamed to the sky with his fist balled up and a tick mark on his face. Somebody was making fun of his Name and they would pay for it dearly!
The Bijūs stared...
