It was weird.

'This world is like stepping into the past, the future, and... a fantasy manga all at the same time.' Naruto thought to himself as he leaned against the wall of a small clothing store. When he had been stolen from his world and brought to this one, he hadn't known the reason why or what had caused him to be here. All he knew was that his goal to be the Boss of Japan, and conquer all of the high schools in the nation had been put to a hard stop.

So, what was he to do?

The answer was actually very obvious.

Become famous, powerful, and gain political power in this world equal or surpassing that of his previous goal in life. He was just 16 though, and this world was very dangerous. He was also a human now in a world with things beyond simple humans, which was why he was glad that Professor Oak approved him as an adventurer and gave him the chance to pick his own partner to help him in his journey. It was under the condition that he do adventurer work, and train the girl that he picked as his partner.

Pokemusu.

"Master!"

"Call me Naruto, none of that Master stuff, you're not a slave." Naruto heard his pick's call from the other side of the curtain.

"Well... I don't really wear pants... you see, my species stays in a crouched position most of the time. The muscles in my legs make pants... very uncomfortable."

"You're the one who wanted to try on clothes... fine though. Pick what..." Naruto blinked to himself and paused when he realized what she said. He put his chin in his hand. '... That girl had been maybe 155cm tall... in a crouched position... how tall would she be standing up?' Naruto wondered to himself.

Naruto looked and saw a purple haired man in the clothes you would imagine a Bard in a DnD campaign wearing, the man was about 189 cm tall, a VERY tall man by the standards of what Naruto was used to seeing at least. Purple hair and purple eyes, both unusual colors to say the least. He had the aura of a man-slut, somebody who had slept around a lot. The guy approached Naruto.

"Hello! You seem like a new adventurer, can I interest you in some advice... I saw you enter the store with a Pokemusu... let me ask you, is she your first?"

"... Shoo." Naruto shoo'd the man off, not having time to waste talking with a man-whore. The man just laughed in a good natured way at Naruto's actions. "... what advice do you have to give?" Naruto asked with a roll of his eyes. He was still a prideful guy, so he didn't want to just accept the help right away. He wouldn't admit that out loud to anyone.

The man reached into the bag at his side, and pulled out a notebook.

"A Pokemusu Trainer is a Musu's Master. Once you have their loyalty, they will do whatever you say, no matter what you say... they will die for you. So it is always a good idea to carry some of these around with you." The man opened the notebook and showed some pressed herbs in the book. He handed a bundle of 5 herbs to Naruto. "... Bitter Herbs, they do wonders in making medicines. You're dressed pretty strangely there."

Naruto held the herbs with a raised eyebrow.

"... Thanks... yeah... I guess I do dress weird." Naruto looked at his high school uniform, and he looked at all the other people in the clothes store. They all wore more fantasy outfits than what he was wearing. He frowned to himself as he fiddled with the clothing he wore, and he looked around.

Chainmail Armor: 5,000 Poke

-20 Minutes Later-

'Well... I guess this is worth it... but my Starting Funds are almost gone.' Naruto had been given 10,000 Poke in order to get the armor and supplies that he was going to need. He had just spent close to 6,000 Poke just getting himself dressed in clothes that would be fitting for this world.

He had a Chainmail armor shirt underneath his outfit.

His outfit now consisted of a black fabric long sleeved shirt and an orange vest on top of it, with looser brown pants. He didn't make the armor super visible from the outside. He kept his black headband from his previous outfit, and his wooden sandles. He didn't need to get rid of those for his outfit, and he refused to part with his headband. He also had leather pouch attached to a belt at his waist.

"Looking good there young man... as thanks a thanks for my advice... how about you help me with... a task."

"... No good things come free." Naruto responded with a sigh. The man just reached into his bag and pulled out a package, it was sealed in brown leather and tied up with string. The man passed it to Naruto.

Naruto just raised an eyebrow.

"In the Pewter Kingdom, I was going to deliver this to the Guild Master for the Elite Rock guild. I was sadly summoned to appear at a different kingdom in the other direction... can I ask you to deliver this package to a man called Brock for me?" The Bard asked Naruto for a relatively small favor. Naruto looked at the package some more.

"How quickly do you need it delivered?"

"Not quickly at all, but it would be great if it was sooner than later. My summons to another Kingdom will be calling me away for a long time. So long, I hope we meet again!" The Bard walked off with that said, before Naruto could even finish telling him an answer. The answer was going to be a yes, but Naruto wasn't a fan of the way the man didn't wait for the answer. Still, it was much too late now to say no.

So he had a task.

Deliver Package to Brock in the Pewter Kingdom.

"Hey, you in there, what is taking so long?" Naruto knocked on the door behind him.

His partner was still trying on clothes?

Naruto cracked open the door and tossed his bag inside.

"EEP!"

"I'm going back to the guild, get whatever you want, but keep it under 3,000 Poke for now." Naruto deadpanned, since the longer she took the longer he would be trapped in a clothes store. Naruto looked over at a woman with animal features on her body, and she giggled/waved at him. She was working at the store, as the owner, an elderly man, just watched her work.

-At Oak's Guild Later-

Help Wanted: Miracle Seed Reward
Help with Farm Work.
My daughter is about to give birth, and I need a young man and strong Pokemusu to help tend to my farm while I travel to the Vermillion Kingdom for my grandchild's birth.

'So... it seems while some Pokemusu are partners, others cause problems and need to be taken care of... and rewards aren't just stuff like money. Would a Miracle Seed reward be good... what should I take?' Naruto looked at the quest board and wondered what he should take to restore some of the funding he used up in getting appropriate clothes and light armor.

"Well... I guess this is good to check out things." Naruto grabbed the paper with the Rattata quest on it, and rolled it up so that he could keep it in his bag easier. Now all he had to do was wait for his partner to finish her shopping, and he would be good to go on the quest.

The quest was the first step to his future after all.

Time to make a good impression.
