Chapter 1: A Brand New World
When his eyes opened he saw that he was sleeping in a comfortable looking couch. Tiredly standing up he thought "Must have black out. Damn, that technique took more out of me than I thought."
Slowly looking around all he saw was books. Books, books everywhere. They lined up all through the walls, in the selves and all across the ground. The wall itself looked to be made up of wood. Slowly standing up he started stretching his back and yawning a little. Walking towards one of the selves, he tried to the the titles of the books but wouldn't understand them.
"Hmm. Must of different language than back home. I'll need to learn them later on. Now to who does this much books belong to?" he questioned himself. As soon as he completed his thought he heard a click and the door open. Quickly turning around he saw a elderly man with the most ridiculous hair and beard he had ever seen and he had seen many many weird things in his life, was standing in the doorway. He had a clean shaven top, with green hair jutting out from his sides and a large beard, all combed to look like the four leaf clover. He wore red and white stripped shirt with a large brown belt on his waist, black pants and black jacket with one strange symbol on each side.
The old man slowly closed the door and walked near speaking along the way. "Oh. Seem you are awake. How are you feeling young man?" Said the old man stopping in front of him. "I feel a tired but everything else seems to be okay" He replied. "Good good." Replied the old man. "By the way, my name is Professor Clover. You can call me Professor." continued the now named Professor Clover.
"Names Uzumaki Naruto." Naruto softly replied. "Ah. Should have guessed his name with his appearance." Naruto thought with a little smile in his face. "So how long was I out for, Professor?" Naruto asked still smiling. "Oh we found you unconscious outside the library two days ago. We didn't know when you would wake up. Nothing seemed to be wrong with you. And since you didn't have any injuries except your missing arm which looked like it an old wound, we just thought you were exhausted. So we left you to rest." The Professor replied with a small smile of his own.
"Hmm. If they didn't know what was wrong with me than they don't seem to be able to feel or use chakra. I'll need to investigate more. I can still feel the nature around me so I can use chakra at least. This world seem almost the same as my own yet vastly different. We seem to speak the same language but the written words seem to be different." Naruto silently thought.
A small cough from the Professor brought Naruto back from his thought. "Sorry. I got lost there for a second. Thank you for taking care of me even though I was just a stranger. If there is anything I can do for you please don't hesitate to ask." Naruto said bowing a little.
The Professor smiled a bit more and shook his head replying, "No no. There is nothing to ask. It was not a problem. So, how did you get here?"
Naruto's smile was now a full blown grin and he replied "Will you believe me if I say I just teleported?" The Professor just chuckled and said "I have seen a lot of things in my life and teleportation isn't so unbelievable. There are a lot of people with Devil Fruit ability out there and you seem to have one."
Naruto kept up his smile. This was really interesting. Devil Fruit. From the name it seemed like a fruit which gave the powers of the Devil. That was something which didn't exist back in his home dimension. Interesting indeed. For now he thought it would be good to go along with what the Professor said. He really need to investigate this world.
"Yes yes. Devil Fruit" Naruto replied quickly. "So this is a library you say." asked Naruto changing the subject from about his powers. The Professor nodded his head and said "Yes, the biggest one in the Grand Line. Its called the Tree of Knowledge. This whole library is inside a huge tree hence the name. The tree itself has been alive for more than 5000 years."
"5000 years. Cool." Replied Naruto with a childish glee in his eye. Hey he had to keep up appearance.
"So can I look through the books here? Also if its not too much trouble can I stay here for a while? I don't really have any place to go and I can search for my own food." Continued Naruto. If the library was as big as the Professor said then he could find a lot of things here.
"Of course. You're free to use the library. And if you can help a bit around here then you are also welcome to stay here. The work won't be hard, just arranging some books and cleaning the room. But you'll have to find your own food I'm afraid." Replied the Professor.
"Deal." Naruto said nodding his head. It sounded good. And he could search or cook his own food. Leaving alone had its perk sometime. Things like cooking and washing your clothes really was a necessary skill to have. "Also I have one more ability I wanted to show you so that you don't get confused in the future." Naruto continued. Using only half a hand seal Naruto softly said "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu." There was a poof of smoke and an identical looking Naruto was standing beside him. "Solid Clone." Naruto said to the Professor chuckling a little.
The Professor was slack jawed. He couldn't believe it. A person with two different Devil Fruit ability. "Wow. Unbelievable. There has never been a person with two different Devil Fruit ability. But it isn't impossible. There are a lot of mystery in this world. You are really a strange man, Naruto." Replied the Professor Clover.
Both Narutos were grinning. "I'll take that as a compliment." Replied the original and dismissed his clone. Again with a poof of smoke the clone was gone.
"Now than why don't I show you around the library and maybe the town. Oh this island is called Ohara by the way." Said the Professor going towards the door and opening it. Naruto slowly followed the Professor outside.
The Next Day
Naruto slowly got up from the couch which he had taken to sleeping in. Yesterday he had spent the whole day touring the library and the town with the Professor. He hadn't been kidding when he said the tree was old. It was one of the biggest trees he had seen so far. He also met one of the hopeful Archaeologist. Her name was Nico Robin.
Flashback Start
The Professor had just finished showing Naruto around the town and were entering the library. When they reached the main lobby it seemed empty expect for a small girl reading a book. She looked to be just around 7 or 8 years old with a short black hair which reach just below her neck and wore a maroon colour dress. She seemed like she was in her own little world. "Oho. Looks like little Robin is here. Why don't I introduce you to her?" Said the Professor heading towards the now named Robin. Naruto silently followed behind the Professor wondering why she was here alone reading a book when she could be outside playing with the other kids.
After reaching Robin the Professor continued, "Hello there Robin. Why don't you keep the book down for now? I would like to introduce you to someone." "Hello Professor." Replied Robin resting the book down and turning to look at us. She had a sad expression on her face. It seemed that she was depressed about something. But as soon as she saw the Professor she gave a tiny smile which really didn't reach her eyes.
"This is Uzumaki Naruto. You'll be seeing a lot of him for now on." Said the Professor with a sad smile. Like he knew what she was depressed about. Turning towards Naruto, the Professor continued, "And this is Nico Robin. One of the most brilliant children in all of Ohara." Hearing the Professor's praise Robin blushed a bit. "Also there was another reason I wanted to introduce you to each other. Since little Robin here also possess a Devil Fruit ability I was wondering if you could help her control them." Suggested the Professor.
Naruto just raised one of his eyebrow. Now this was interesting, it looked like anyone could have this so called Devil Fruit ability and this gave him a chance to investigate the Devil Fruit. "Of course Professor. Anything to help." Replied Naruto with a grin on his face. Looking towards Robin, Naruto continued, "Well little lady, if you would like we can start first thing tomorrow."
Robin couldn't believe what she was hearing. This strange man who looked to be missing an arm even though it was hidden by his robe sleeve and had really strange eyes, also possessed the strange ability only she had in this whole island. The same ability that made her an outcast among her own people. She couldn't believe her luck. Not only that but he was going to teach her how to use them. Now she didn't have to be alone. Now it looked like she had someone who understood her. Understood that even with the strange things she could do, she wasn't a demon like everyone else insisted on.
Finally smiling a true smile Robin replied, "Of course. I would love to. Thank you sir." "Please. No need to call me such things. Just Naruto or Sensei will do." Said Naruto smiling. It looked like there was more to Robin than just a small girl who loved to read books. "Thank you Naruto-sensei." Replied Robin happily. Her previous sad expression all but gone from her face. She was really starting to look forward to learn from her new Sensei.
The Professor just looked on as the two converse. He was happy how the situation turned out. Now little Robin had someone to talk to. "Now Naruto I'll leave you here. You can use the library freely and you can have the couch from before to sleep in." Said the Professor. Naruto turned towards the Professor and replied, "Of Course Professor and thank you for everything." The Professor just smiled a little and walked away.
Naruto turned to look towards Robin and smiled mischievously saying, "So you want to see something awesome." Robin just replied, "Sure." Using the same half a hand seal like before he said softly, "Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu." And with a smoke and poof sound the whole lobby was filled with Naruto clones. Almost one hundred of them. Robin just stayed in her place slack jawed. This was nothing like see had every seen or read. This was amazing. Maybe he would teach her how to do that too.
"Amazing right?" Naruto said grinning. "Now everyone listen up. I want 10 of you to go search for some food and the rest of you search for books that can help us to start learning how to read and write." Continued Naruto. Robin just looked on frozen in her place.
Flashback End
Well after that Robin volunteered to help him search for helpful books and with her help he was able to find multiple books to get him started. It wouldn't take him long now and finally he could start his research his current situation. Maybe there was also new techniques he could learn from here. Not that he needed it. He was already plenty powerful. But maybe he could teach them to Robin. He wasn't sure if it was a good idea to teach Robin about chakra but he did promise the Professor. Sighing Naruto just sat in the couch making plans for his future lessons.
A.N: I planned to write a longer chapter but had to end it here to think of some things of what can I have Naruto teach Robin. What do you guys think of having him teach her about chakra? Also hope you enjoyed this chapter. Look forward to the next one sometime next week. Hopefully it will be longer than this.
