Chapter 10: Enter, Naruto Uzamaki!
"It's working !" Speed shouted, as I felt myself getting weaker and weaker.
I could visibly see the Turbo energy be completely moved out of me, and everything that empowered me, and made me stronger just left my body.
I once again felt like a normal human, unable to do anything, yet it didn't stop there.
I felt my body shrivel, and my body mass visibly became smaller.
I…felt like I was dying.
"Shit, I can't stop it!" Steel shouted, as he tried to keep some Turbo Energy.
I could see Tom was scared, but he stayed to the side since I told him not to interrupt us. He was chewing his nails in fear though, which was quite comical to look at.
However, thankfully, the feeling of weakness eventually stopped.
I flopped to the ground, and I couldn't feel anything. I couldn't hear Steel's ramblings, nor could I hear Tom's frightened screams.
I felt like I was inside an infinite, endless void, completely devoid of anything that can, will and should exist.
I couldn't even feel…I didn't know how I even existed.
[Congratulations host for figuring out you can use me multiple times]
For the first time ever, I heard a voice of the system. However it was neither the voice of a male or a female, it seemed to be a mixture of both, like if hundreds of people talked at the same time.
[However, this is not something you should attempt too early right after a summon, it takes too much energy for a summon]
I couldn't reply, since it didn't actually feel like I was existing now.
[Be more careful, host. Live life as you want, since that is all we want you to do]
As the system spoke, I regained feeling out of nowhere. I felt a warm palm on my chest, which emitted a comfortable, warm feeling.
[Have fun with your new friend, host, we are rooting for your happiness]
"AHHHHHHHH!" I heard Toms screaming, and him throwing stuff out of his pockets, searching for something that could help me.
I slowly began able to open my eyes, to see a blond man, with slightly short hair and whiskers smiling very brightly at me.
I was struck dumbfounded, as I looked at the realistic man in front of him.
'No way, this must be a joke.' I tried to convince myself, till I heard his all too familiar voice, something I heard every weekend for at least 4 years.
I felt like I grew up with this man.
He changed my life in ways he wouldn't even be able to understand.
His hand, which was glowing in a bright yellow aura, retracted from my chest and the aura slowly disappeared.
He put his hand behind his head and said in a shy tone, "I knew I was famous, but I can't believe even people from other worlds like me." I stared at him, not wanting to blink just in case this was a dream, just in case he was a temporary illusion the system created.
"It seems like you broke him, Naruto-kun." Said the voice of what seemed like a goddess.
I immediately sat up straight and turned towards the voice, and the owner of the voice became a little startled, as she moved back slightly
I then turned to my side to see the new system notifications.
[The system has detected what the host requires]
[Scanning the Omni-Verse for willing being to be summoned to the host]
[The Omni-Verse has found a willing participant to be summoned by the host, which can help the host]
[Name: Naruto Uzamaki (Special Variant)
Summon number 3
Description: This is a special summon-Anyone from the Elemental Nations who has reached at least the Jounin rank and has the permission of Naruto Uzamaki can come into this world.
Reason for summon: For the host to have people he trusts to guide and help him]
Now, something clicked for me.
But now, there was another problem
What the fuck do I say? However before I could even say anything, Tom charged into me and we both crashed into my sofa together.
He stuffed his face into my shirt, and I could tell he was currently crying his eyes out in fear of what was happening to me.
"Stupid cat, you seem to be worrying a lot recently." I said, as I patted his soft fur.
"So you can talk!" Naruto immediately exclaimed.
My head shot up, and I could see Hinata approached Tom and I, probably wanting to pat the cat too, and Naruto smiling at me with his hands behind his back.
"Hello, my name is Lucas, nice to meet you, Naruto and Hinata." I greeted the duo.
Based on their outfits, I could tell it was around the time of the movie where Hinata got captured and Naruto realized the girl he should have been spending his time on was Hinata, but I couldn't tell if that had happened yet or not.
"Wow, so you really do know everything about us huh. That's kind of weird." Naruto said, as he adopted a thinking pose.
"What did the system tell you when it invited you here?" I asked.
"Ah well, it explained a lot of things I didn't really understand, but basically it said one of my biggest fans in existence needed my help, and that I myself would get an amazing friend…and there is good ramen here too" Naruto said, the last part with a whisper.
I couldn't help but ponder over the first parts of his words.
Steel didn't say that the system explained many things to him, but for Naruto, it seemed to be different, and it also did seem different for Tom and Buzz as well.
Did the system treat each case differently? As I was pondering on Naruto's, he himself seemed to suddenly go into a daze, and I watched as his eyes turned red in color, and his eyeball became a straight vertical slit.
His whiskers also became much sharper, and he gave off a completely different vibe.
I could tell, the 9 tailed fox borrowed his body.
But for now, he didn't say anything as he just stared at me.
I then felt some movement in my lap, and watched as Tom, who as per usual, very quickly calmed down and was swatting at Hinata's hand, not allowing her to pet him.
I was a bit confused, since Tom didn't really care about who pet him and loved attention in general.
Then, I realized with Tom's attitude, he misunderstood something.
Tom's opinions had to be taken into consideration with a different view 99% of the time, since he was a very unique cat.
He loved attention, yes, but he cared about me much more and he seemed to think Naruto and Hinata somehow caused the problem.
Sigh, don't get a cat like this one, it takes a lot of work.
He is borderline omniscient, yet he can't seem to realize they didn't harm me in any way.
Hinata seemed a little sad that Tom didn't want to let her pat him, but since he wasn't being too aggressive, she kept on trying.
"Tom, they didn't do anything wrong." I said, as I patted his back and calmed him down from being hostile against people who didn't do anything wrong.
"Yes cat, these humans are clearly nice people." Steel said, as he popped out of my chest.
"Woah!" Hinata exclaimed, and I could see Kurama surprised too.
With that, I introduced the duo to my entire family.
…
"Wow, so in this world, we are just a show?" Naruto asked in confusion, as I showed him episode 1 of Naruto when he mastered the shadow-clone jutsu.
"Hehe, I am cool aren't I." He continued.
Hinata seemed to think about something, and she immediately whispered into my ear and asked.
"Does this anime show me…crushing on Naruto?" She asked me in a shy tone.
Tom, who had super hearing and saw the whole show before couldn't help but facepalm.
I sighed a little and stopped the episode that was currently playing and opened youtube.
"Hey, I was watching that!" I ignored the whiskered boy, and typed into the search bar 'Hinata being a Naruto simp.'
Hinata watched in horror, as the first clip being shown was when Naruto was injured as a child, and he had his face extremely close to hers in the hospital.
The video showed how she turned as red as blood and head bumped into Naruto.
"Hey, you never apologized for that, Hinata." Naruto said as he looked at the video in slight realization.
Hinata, who was dumbfounded, covered her face which was turning as red as she was in the video.
Tom then grabbed Naruto's shirt.
"What is it kitty?" Naruto asked as he looked at Tom.
Tom just pointed at the title of the video and then at child Hinata who was extremely red and fainting.
"He's asking if you see anything wrong with the video whatsoever." I translated.
"Yeah there is, she didn't say sorry, and then she randomly falls for some reason." Naruto explained his thoughts.
I turned to Hinata and gave her the look of pity.
'How dense is this guy.'
