Chapter 2 :- Starting A New Journey
It's been nearly two month Naruto left the Elemental Nation as whole to start a new life in Server Region. Although he is on the ship but he didn't stop his training.
Yes he can't practice Elemental ninjutsu or spar with his clone but he still practice taijutsu kata, Kenjutsu kata, fuinjutsu and chakra control excercise.
When John asked Naruto why he still training his shinobi art Naruto answered that why not maybe when he get a Pokemon he can try and teach it some of these shinobi art and also he will remain fit in this way.
Now we see an excited Naruto stand on the deck and watching various water type Pokemon that swiming along with their ship.
"Naruto you're really excited to reach the Server didn't you?" asked John to Naruto who nods his head in excitement.
"Yes I am but how long it will take to reach there John?" asked Naruto to John.
"Well it will take a week at most to reach there." answered John.
" Naruto please compare currency of both Elemental Nation and Server region so that I can payback to you the money you spend on us in Degarashi Port." said John to Naruto.
After some thought Naruto said " Hmm I think it's best to assume their value same as we really didn't have this type of problem with currency before."
John is touched that Naruto didn't try and charge the value of ryo more than the value of pokedollar as he payed Naruto his money and give a Fast ball too.
Naruto tried to say John didn't have to give him anything but the man insist saying this is a thank you gift for helping him and also be fair with him in terms of currency so Naruto accepted the gift with reluctance and thanked the man.
Naruto then asks why this Pokeball seem different than a Normal Pokeball as he saw them whe John show him his Pokemon.
"Naruto this is a Fast Ball. It is mainly used to catch Pokemon who are Very Fast." explain John to Naruto as this Information Shocked him as he asks John more about these Pokeball balls as John tell him about all the different types of Poke ball.
Time skip :-
A week has already past as they reach to the Vermillion City port and Naruto is eager to meet with the renowned Pokemon researcher Prof. Oak and learn from him about Pokemon.
"Well thank you John for bringing me here but can you tell me which way I have to go to reach Pallet town?" asked Naruto.
"Well you have to go south to reach Viridian city then to the Pallet town if you face any problem asks either Officer Jenny or Nurse Joy or any other trainer for directions." said John.
John then told how Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy looked and where he can find either of them.
" I see well thanks John." said Naruto as he started to leave but stopped and turned towards John and said
" Oh and one more thing can you give me your Pokenav number so I can contact you in the future ."
After that John wrote down his Pokenav number to a paper and give it to Naruto and Naruto bid John farewell and started to make his way towards Pallet town.
Time skip 5 days :-
It's been 5 day Naruto reach Vermillion City and started his journey towards Pallet sees many Pokemon on his journey towards Pallet town.
He see many Pokemon on his way towards Pallet town and when he camped in forest at night he noticed that he can clearly understand with the Pokemon are saying to each other which intrigued him as he didn't think that he will be able to understand the Pokemon as they are totally different creature than normal animals or bird of the Elemental Nation.
Now Naruto reach at the Pallet as he looked at the town to see it's relatively pieceful. As he take a deep breath and started to make his way through the town.
He started to look around to see that the people are happily chatting with each other seeing this a small smile form on Naruto's face.
As Naruto was walking he didn't notice a woman is standing in his way and he bumped into the woman.
"I am sorry I didn't see where I was going." apologizes Naruto to the woman.
As Naruto look at the woman who is tall has brown hair and brown eyes beside her standing a five year old boy with spickey black hair and brown eyes and has lightning bolt mark on his cheek.
"Ah it's ok young man but next time be careful ok" said the woman to Naruto who nods his head.
She then look at Naruto and didn't recognise as towns recident so she ask
" Who are you young man? I believe I didn't see you in the town before ." asks the woman as the boy besider her stared at him curiously.
" Ah yes you are right about that I am new to this town and my name is Naruto and you mam"said Naruto.
"Ah where are my manners I am Delia Ketchum and this is Ash my son" said Delia.
" Ah I see well then Mrs. Ketchum can you tell me where I can find Professor Oak" said Naruto.
"Well you must be a new trainer visit Proffesor for starter Pokemon right?" asked Delia to Naruto.
"Umm I am looking for Proffesor so that I can learn about Pokemon so in future I can go on the journey." said Naruto.
"I see well then follow us as we are going there anyway." said Delia.
After that Naruto,Delia and Ash go towards Prof. Oak Lab.
It take 10 minutes for them to reach the lab. After reaching there Delia knock on the door.
After few minutes the Door opened to revel a elderly man with gray hair thick eye brow and brown eyes this man is Prof. Samuel Oak a renowned Pokemon researcher.
" Ah Delia I see you here and you also brought Ash with you as well." said Prof. Oak to Delia then he noticed Naruto.
" And who you might be young man?" asked Prof . Oak to Naruto.
" I am Naruto Prof. Oak it's nice to meet you." Said Naruto to Prof. Oak .
" I see well come in all of you ." as Prof. Oak welcome them as they go in the lad and sit on the sofa in common space.
Also Delia go to the kitchen to make some tea for them and Ash run off to play with the Pokemon in the ranch.
After some time Delia come with the tea and they start to enjoy the tea when Prof. Oak asks Naruto " so Naruto my boy where you from as you didn't look like you're Native to Kanto?"
Naruto sigh at the question and started to explain everything about shinobi, chakra and what happened in his life. He also explain how he left the Elemental Nation and reach to Server Region and his wish to learn about Pokemon.
As Naruto was explaining Prof. Oak and Delia first Intrigued by explanation but when Naruto started to explain about his life they were horrified and angry at his parents also smile when he told them about Mikoto,Itachi,Shisui, Izumi, Hana, Anko, Kurenai, Yugao ,Haku,Zabuza and Gai. They also understand why he left the village.
At the end of the explanation Delia hug him as both her and Prof. Oak says they will help him any way they can for which Naruto thanked them.
Naruto also told them about how he can understand what Pokemon are saying which intrigued Prof. Oak and shocked Delia.
As Prof. Oak release his Dragonite from Pokeball who was confused why he is called. Then Prof. Oak asked Dragonite to have a conversation with Naruto to see Naruto's ability. Dragonite was sceptical but shurgged and started to say something which Naruto can understand fully as a result Naruto started conversation with Dragonite who is very happy that someone can understand what he is saying.
When Naruto is talking to Dragonite Prof. Oak has a giddy look on his face as Naruto's ability can help him to understand Pokemon better than before.
After that as the conversation between Prof. Oak and Naruto being progressed Prof. Oak explained to Naruto all about Pokemon trainer , Pokemon coordinator ,Breeder , Pokemon Ranger and Pokemon resercher also told him about Gym leader , Elite Four and Champion.
After hearing the explanation Naruto said to Prof. Oak he want to become a Pokemon Trainer as well as a Pokemon Breeder and Pokemon resercher as well.
After hearing Naruto's wish Prof. Oak said he will teach Naruto and offer him to be his assistant which Naruto immediately agrees.
Time skip 1 year :-
In this one year Naruto learn a lot from Prof. Oak and now he is working at the lab as an assistant.
He was always eager to learn and can soak up the information very quick as he is quite intelligent and with the help of Shadow clone he learn everything with in 4 month.
Even though He really didn't have any type preference that he would like to specialize in at first but later Dragon ,Dark,Psychic and Ghost type Pokemon intrigued him so he started to reserch about them like their behaviour,how to take care for them.
He also started to write paper on Basic behaviour patterns of Mind Arts trio and Dragon type and how to take care of them which impressed Prof. Oak and he encouraged Naruto about it as Blonde thanked him.
What Naruto didn't know is that Prof. Oak show his reserch paper to all of his colleagues who then show it to respective Gym leader , Elite Four member and champion who is really impressed and whe asked who wrote this papers Prof. Oak is happy to brag about his surrogate grand son Naruto.
Although just because Dragon type Pokemon and Mind arts trio intrigued him doesn't mean he only foucus on them as a specialist would do. No he still learn about other type as well as he didn't want to be a type specialist any way.
In this time he set a new hard goal which is to catch and train all the pseudo legendary Pokemon.
In his off time when he didn't study he take care of the Pokemon in ranch as well as preparing starter Pokemon for new trainer.
Now we see Naruto is siting on the roof of the lab and watching the setting sun when he heard some one calling him from behind as he turned he saw his first Pokemon a Latius whom he caught at Alto mere in Jhoto region.
Flashback :-
It's been 6 months Naruto started to learn under Prof. Oak now he is going to Jhoto with Prof. Oak to visit Prof. Elm who is also Prof. Oak students and specialize in Pokemon evaluation.
As they arrive at New Bark town at Prof. Elm lab they saw that Nurse Joy of the New Bark town yelling at the Proffesor for being care less who comically sulmped to the ground. This scene amuses him a lot.
Prof. Elm greeted them as soon as he sees them as this way both the Proffesor started to discuss about Pokemon evaluation from and he started give his opinion as well.
For 2 weeks they started to reserch about Pokemon evaluation after that they visit Alto Mere city for a little vacation and Naruto as always wonder off on his own when he meet Latias and became friends with the dragon and psychic type legendary Pokemon some later a Pokemon who looks same as Latias but blue in colour appear in front of them Whom he learn is Latios another dragon and psychic type legendary Pokemon who is also brother of Latias.
He also became friends with Latios as well.
Later when Alto Mere was attacked Latios sacrificed himself to save Alto Mere. Both Naruto and Latias were sad by the death of Latios.
As the time come when meet with the professor as he knew they probably worried about him after that they will leave Alto Mere and go back to New Bark town so Naruto meet with Latias again to say goodbye but didn't really want to so he decide to asks her if she want come with him.
Latias immediately agrees as with her brother's death there isn't anything there for her anyway and she also didn't want Naruto to leave her.
Naruto catches Latias with the Fast ball that John gave to Naruto and he then release her and asks if she had a Name to which Latias shake her head in Negative when Naruto asks if she want one she said to him yes so Naruto called her Sumi and asks if she likes that name she said yes after that Naruto return sumi to her Pokeball and go back to where both the professor are.
As Naruto reach both Proffesor Prof. Oak hugged him as he was worried about him then both of them saw a Fast ball in Naruto's hand so Prof. Oak asks Naruto if he cathes any Pokemon with the Fast ball.
Naruto didn't answer but call out Latias which gave both the professor nearly a heart attack as they saw the legendary Pokemon.
Present time :-
"What happened Sumi?" asked Naruto to his best friend and starter Pokemon.
"Proffesor is calling for you Naruto" replied Sumi.
"Well let's go then"said Naruto as both he and Sumi go inside the lab.
As they reach the lab they saw Prof. Oak waiting for them.
"Ah Naruto my boy there you are."said Prof. Oak.
"Hey Gramps is there anything you need my help with?" asked Naruto to Prof . Oak.
"Ah yes my boy you see one of my student and colleague Prof. Sycamore is researching on events where a Lucario evolved again with in the hit of the battle and he asks for my assistance so I thought it would be a great opportunity for you to start field research and I recommend you to him." said Prof. Oak to Naruto which surprised him greately.
"It's an honor Gramps but are you sure I can help Prof. Sycamore with his research?" asked Naruto to Prof. Oak
" Of course I believe in you my boy that you will be succed so don't doubt about what you're capable of and I am sure Sumi will help you along the way." said Prof. Oak to Naruto.
" Thank you Gramps so when will I leave for Kalos?" asked Naruto to Prof. Oak.
"You flight will take off at 9.30 am from Viridian airport so go pack your things also we are visiting Delia and Ash as Delia invited us for Dinner." said Prof. Oak to Naruto who became happy at meeting with his surrogate aunt again as he didn't visit her for quite some time.
Next day at 8 am Prof. Oak and Naruto reach Viridian Airport after getting his boarding pass Naruto bid farewell to his surrogate grand father and boarded the plane for Kalos region.
At the correct time the plane take off as Naruto was really excited to learn more about this new evaluation and the cause behind it.
Now we go to the Konoha :-
In Konoha all of the people who are close to Naruto is very worried about his especially Mikoto but the Uzumaki-Namikaze family stayed ignorent as ever which really make all of the people who are close to Naruto mad but they didn't say anything to them to see how much long it will take them to realise that Naruto is missing.
Anko, Kurenai, Yugao,Hana also became sad as they have crush on him but one thing they all realise that Naruto must have left the village to get away from the Uzumaki-Namikaze family so they made a decision to try and find where Naruto is so they left the village forever and go to him and live with him
Also Mikoto thought that when she find Naruto she will beat him up for worrying her.
Now back with Naruto :-
Naruto suddenly fell chill up his spine but he didn't know why but he has a felling that his beloved mother wants to beat him up for leaving her as he has this feeling many time in past 2 year he is out of that hell hole.
As Naruto started to remember his time with his surrogate no his real mother Mikoto as a small tear escape his eyes because he missed his mother very much and has thaught that one day he will take her as well as Itachi,Izumi,Shisui,Anko,Hana, Kurenai, Yugao out of Konoha also take Haku as well and bring them here in Server region.
With the memory of his love one Naruto became more determined to move forward and complete his goal and with these thought he finally does off to sleep no knowing that he will soon be informed about his destiny.
