Welcome back, everyone, to Izuku: The Slime I would like to thank Gorobuilder for helping me recover this story from the dead. So, this is your typical Deku story, but Izuku dies from getting involved in the Sludge Villain Incident. This book will follow the main storyline of TTIGRAAS, but with a few timeskips here and there. Somewhere along the line, he returns to his original world. Anyways, just some heads ups for this story: - Izuku Midoriya, formerly Yagi, is Quirkless and gets bullied for it. - Main tormentors, as always, Katsuki Bakugo, who tricked Katsumi Bakugo into bullying him, making her think it was to keep him 'safe' - Katsumi is in love with Izuku, but she bullied him because she thought it was to protect him. - Izumi Midoriya, formerly Yagi, exists here, and she'll be nice to Izuku, along with Inko. - Katsuki has a crush on Izumi, but Izumi rejects him every time, so Katsuki moved to second option when they reach UA. - Endeavor will still be an ass here. - Hisashi Midoriya, Izuku and Izumi's biological dad, died while on his way to the milk store. Death was caused by crossfire between a hero and a villain. - Again, All Might will be a sorry excuse of a father and neglect Izuku for not having a Quirk, and will turn all his attention towards Izumi, who has one.' - Izuku will have one hell of a massive harem, which will make Issei jealous. - Shizu will still die, sadly, but gets resurrected after Rimuru evolves into a Demon Lord. - Some unexpected and expected ships will be included. - Velgrynd and Rudra never hit it off because Velgrynd didn't trust him, so she left the East and moved in with Luminous as her partner. It's a way of apologizing on behalf of what Veldora did in the past. - Luminous will have an adopted sister, who is a reincarnator.

Naruto loves Sakura - there's no doubt about that. But, he was willing to dial back his own feelings and simply "be friends" with her to help improve the teamwork dynamic of Team 7. However, when even that effort is received poorly, he changes tactics entirely. "I do still love her, believe it...but for the sake of our team becoming the absolute best ever, I'll back off and leave her alone." Will it work? And with all the constant rejections she receives from Sasuke, will Sakura come to miss the pining of her knuckleheaded teammate? ***I don't own any part of Naruto! Masashi Kishimoto owns it all!***
