Chapter 39

" So you are telling me that my grandson used some kind of insane fire seal and then all the enemies were gone after being sucked into a huge flame tornado ? " Hokage just could not believe Shisui telling him about the course of events during the secret mission .

He thought for a while and sighed in the end because the 14 barely safe iwa forehead protectors were lying on his table . So he accepted their mission completion report and Ren , Itachi and Shisui decided to take money as the reward this time . They got 15 million ryo for the S rank secret mission which was high when it comes to reward for secret missions . Itachi and Shisui went away with 5 million each as their fighting spirit was completely lit up by Ren's performance and they wanted to train starting from right now. Ren also sent one shadow clone with them to keep his promise of teaching them the correct basics of fuinjutsu .

" Grandpa , are you free now? Let's go and eat some good ramen ! My treat .. "

" Oh ? So that cheeky brat has grown up so much already .... Okay let's go now as I've only got half an hour of free time . Hehe.. it feels good nowadays because I can let my shadow clones do most of the work . " Listening to the relieved tone of Hokage , Ren could not help but feel that the old man just wanted to laze around .

When both of them arrived at the stall Ichiraku Ramen , Ren saw a new face there chatting with his two little brothers and stuffing ramen like there was no tomorrow. Ren could not help but smile gently because he had seen small Naruto unexpectedly.

" Jiji.. these two big brothers are very nice to me ! Oh... their names are Taiga and Simon and ... "

Ren was being ignored by the little blonde as the chatterbox was busy telling Hokage about his daily life . Ren was also interested because he wanted to see the effects of Danzo erasing the rumors of Naruto being the reincarnation of Kyuubi . As Ren continued to listen , he could not help but feel good as Naruto was not being bullied by the orphanage now . Ren felt a sense of accomplishment because he had always thought that Naruto's past was really tragic in the story and now he helped to make it better.

Ren immediately smacked the little blonde's head because the talk was finished now . " Hmphf.. Naruto chan , it's not nice to ignore someone , right? Anyway, I'm the big brother of your two new friends . You can call me big brother Ren from now on .."

Naruto held his head in pain but Ren was impressed because he did not feel any bad emotions in Naruto's eyes . It looks like Naruto was really different from others from small age already . He had a pure soul which was a rare quality in shinobi world .

" I'm sorry big brother but it hurts.. " Ren could not help but pinch the cute whiskers cheeks of the little blonde because he was too cute right now . Ren had developed a bad habit to pull the cheeks of incarnations of Indra and Ashura somehow and the feeling was not bad as these two are destined to wreck havoc in the shinobi world in future .

" Hehe.. Grandpa , what do you say that I take this little blonde with me ? I'm sure that he and my two cute brothers will have fun daily. " Ren decided to take Naruto with him because from the looks of it , this brat was still finding difficult to make friends and Ren did not like it because it feels too lonely. Besides seeing the joy in Taiga and Simon's eyes , Ren knew that he had made the right decision .

If it were anyone else then Hokage would not even ask anything from Ren before instantly agreeing but Naruto was too special. Still he agreed after thinking for a while because Naruto will be safe with Ren and have much more happy childhood which Hokage wanted too as he had promised Kushina and Minato to take care of Naruto ..

" I agree but Ren chan , you have to make sure that Naruto does not eat only ramen everyday.. "

" Haha..okay grandpa . So Naruto chan wants to live with us three brothers from now on? "

Naruto's eyes were already moist and he immediately started crying loudly after Ren asked him . Well he was a lonely child so of course he would feel happy when he can have a small family from now on .

Ren said nothing and just held Naruto in his embrace because it was necessary to vent up emotions like this especially for small children .

" Grandpa , recommended me a big and nice house then . The small apartment will be very small for our little family from now on .. "

" Hmm you're correct so what do you think about one empty house near Hokage building? It's a small two story house .. "

Ren did not let Hokage finish speaking " Okay done ! That house is a very good choice ! Grandpa , you help me with the registration and everything while I take Naruto chan for a walk . "

Hokage did not even ask about money because even the house in core area of the village is expensive but Ren is already very rich from the income from his books and missions . After eating and chatting happily , Hokage went back to see through the matter of the house himself while Ren took Naruto towards Uchiha compound while giving him a shoulder ride on the way .
