[Naruto] Becoming Best Friends with Konoha's Male Chauvinist

After I died, I met something that called itself the "System." It said that if I could win the affections of someone from the Hokage world, it would help bring me back to life.

Out of the countless candidates, I thought it over very carefully.

As for who to pursue... I choose you, cheerful, optimistic boy with the goggles! Not only does he look normal, but even his name, Obito, is refreshingly plain. Unlike that white-haired kid beside him, who looks like nothing but trouble.

And as for the kind of affection, let's go with pure friendship!

System: Are you sure?

Me, confidently putting my hands on my hips: Absolutely!

Then the System packed me up and sent me into Obito's brain.

Me: ??? Is this right?!

To get home as soon as possible, I racked my brains trying to befriend Obito and raise his affection for me. This included, but wasn't limited to, talking him around every day, staying by his side twenty-four hours a day, and helping him at every opportunity.

"Xiao Fu, will you always stay with me?"

"Of course. As Obito's best friend, I'll always stay with you."

"Then let's pinky swear. Hook pinkies, and don't break the promise for a hundred years."

Obito: Looking at me with sincere anticipation.

Me: ...I held out my hand, feeling guilty.

Later, the two of us became each other's most important friends. But that also meant I could go home. Which mattered more, going home or staying with my friend?

As if there were any question. Of course I was going home.

Though I felt a little bad for Obito, there was nothing I could do about it.

Much later, I accidentally transmigrated to the world of Hokage again.

And I ran into Obito once more.

The masked man radiated an overwhelming sense of oppression. He held my wrist tightly, his voice unbearably heavy.

"Best friends are supposed to stay together forever, aren't they?"

"I'll always stay with you."

Me: !!!

And much, much later, we best friends stayed together forever and ever.

Warm everyday moments at first, then love and hate, with a tragic, all-consuming romance.

Male lead: Obito. Happy ending.
