In Naruto, the System Asks Me to Entrust Pokémon

"ROARRR—!"

At that moment, Dragonite stood up and let out a deafening roar toward the sky.

A powerful aura surged outward, expanding in all directions.

Feeling the sheer force of this energy, Ryo quickly activated his psychic power to resist it, his eyes filled with shock as he gazed at Dragonite.

Even with his psychic defenses, he could feel the pressure weighing down his body.

The strength Dragonite now possessed was unimaginable.

Ryo managed to endure thanks to his psychic abilities, but Cynthia—had it not been for Garchomp's quick reflexes—would likely have been forced to the ground.

Much like Espeon, who was now flattened against the ground, wincing under the overwhelming force.

Meanwhile, Diancie and Hoopa remained unaffected, merely tilting their heads in confusion as they observed the scene.

Their expressions suggested they didn't feel a thing, standing even more unaffected than Gardevoir, who had already reached the Shadow level.

"Dragonite!"

Ryo called out, realizing that Dragonite had yet to restrain its aura.

At his voice, Dragonite snapped back to reality, noticing the others struggling against its energy. Embarrassed, it quickly retracted its aura and let out a sheepish chuckle.

But Ryo wasn't concerned with that. His eyes were filled with excitement as he blurted out, "Dragonite, did you just break through?"

Cynthia and the surrounding Pokémon perked up at the question, turning their attention to Dragonite.

"ROARRR—!"

Dragonite nodded, its eyes gleaming with excitement.

[Dragonite] Gender: Male

Category: Dragon Pokémon

Type: Dragon/Flying

Ability: Inner Focus (Prevents flinching)

Hidden Ability: Multiscale (Reduces damage taken by 50% when at full health)

Level: 91 (Super Shadow)

Moves: Wing Attack, Dragon Dance, Outrage, Hyper Beam, Hurricane...

Seeing the updated status, Ryo's excitement exploded.

"Yes! This is amazing!"

He practically jumped with joy.

Super Shadow level!

In this era of the Naruto world, aside from that rice-carrying monster, who else had reached such a level?

"Cynthia, it really made it to Master level!"

Cynthia, still in shock, looked at Ryo in disbelief.

Ryo nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah, Dragonite is Level 91 now!"

"ROARRR—!"

Dragonite let out another cry, joyfully acknowledging its newfound strength.

Cynthia's mouth fell open in astonishment.

"I can't believe it actually worked… There really exists a fruit like this?"

Her face was filled with disbelief.

In the Pokémon world, there were many Pokémon stuck at Level 90, unable to take the final step forward.

But Master-level Pokémon were exceedingly rare.

The gap between Level 90 and 91 was a barrier that most Pokémon could never surpass, no matter how much they trained.

And yet, with just one fruit, Dragonite had broken through this seemingly insurmountable wall.

Ryo, rather than responding, continued observing Dragonite, a wide grin on his face.

Then—

"Boss, are you here?"

"I'm coming."

Hearing the voice from the cabin, Ryo put aside his excitement and turned toward the wooden house.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Konoha...

Near a quiet river, Naruto was struggling to balance on the water's surface.

The next second, he wobbled uncontrollably before plunging into the water with a loud splash.

"Glub… glub… help… glub… help me…"

Ebisu, standing on the riverbank, let out a deep sigh and palmed his face in exasperation. Then, he quickly reached in and fished Naruto out.

"Huff… huff…"

Back on land, Naruto sat on the ground, gasping for air. "Phew… saved!"

"I told you, you need to focus and remain calm! How long has it been, and you've made no progress at all?! You're hopeless!"

Ebisu scolded him with a pained expression.

But Naruto, seemingly immune to the lecture, sat there with a completely blank look, lost in his own world.

The scene looked like a mother scolding her child, who had long since tuned her out.

"Bulba..."

Even Ivysaur, lying nearby, mirrored Naruto's bored expression, staring lazily at the river.

Suddenly—

Swish—

BAM—!

"AHHHHH—!"

A white-haired man crashed down from the sky, landing squarely on Ebisu with pinpoint accuracy.

"Deino, didn't we agree to just observe quietly? Why did you charge in?!"

Jiraiya, who had landed on top of Ebisu, shouted in frustration at Deino.

Deino, however, paid him no mind, glancing around curiously instead.

"Over there! That pervert is over there!"

"Get him! And don't let that perverted Pokémon escape either!"

"That's right! Flashing people deserves punishment!"

At that moment, the sound of an angry mob echoed from the distance.

Looking in that direction, Jiraiya saw a group of furious women wielding brooms and sticks, charging straight toward him.

"Uh-oh… we've been discovered. Deino, we need to run!"

Jiraiya's face paled as he leaped off Ebisu and sprinted away.

Deino hesitated for a moment, then glanced back at the approaching mob before shuddering and quickly following Jiraiya.

"Stop running! Get back here!"

"Pervert, stand still!"

—

Naruto and Ivysaur watched the chaotic scene unfold, standing there, dumbfounded.

"...Ivysaur, what just happened?"

"Bulba…"

Ivysaur shook its head, just as confused as Naruto.

"AH!"

Suddenly, Naruto snapped out of it and ran over to Ebisu, who was sprawled motionless on the ground.

"Ebisu-sensei! Ebisu-sensei! Are you okay? You can't die! If you die, who will teach me how to walk on water?!"

"S-stop… stop shaking me…"

"Huh? What are you saying, Ebisu-sensei?"

"I said—stop shaking me! If you keep shaking, I really will die!"

—

Some time later…

"Goodbye, Ebisu-sensei!"

Naruto waved as a group of ANBU carried the battered Ebisu away.

His face was filled with disappointment.

He had only been training for an hour under the teacher recommended by the Third Hokage, and now the guy was already on his way to the hospital.

Meanwhile, lying on the stretcher, Ebisu shuddered at Naruto's words.

No… No way… I need to stay in the hospital for at least a few months. Otherwise, I might not survive this kid…

He was genuinely terrified of Naruto.

Initially, he had just wanted to take a short rest.

But Naruto had shaken him so violently for so long that he had nearly thrown up his lunch.

If the ANBU hadn't arrived in time, he might have actually been shaken to death on the spot.
