"I was just thinking that Minato and Denji look a bit alike, but the system actually gave me a Pikachu," Uchiha Hayato thought to himself.
He remembered that Minato seemed to have lightning affinity, so a Pikachu would be a good match for him.
[Name: Pikachu]
[Gender: Female]
[Ability: Static (When attacked at close range, there is a chance to paralyze the enemy)]
[Type: Electric]
[Held Item: Light Ball]
[Moves: Nuzzle, Nasty Plot, Charm, Sweet Kiss, Play Nice, Tail Whip, Growl, Thunder Shock, Thunder Wave, Electro Ball, Thunderbolt, Volt Tackle]
It turned out to be an excellent Pikachu. After looking at Pikachu's stats, Uchiha Hayato judged that, apart from its ability not being Lightning Rod, this Pikachu's moves were undoubtedly very powerful.
But reality isn't a game, and the Static ability to paralyze enemies is also good. A diligent Pokémon can also break through its species limits, just like that yellow-furred mouse in the anime that shocked everything.
"Minato, I'm entrusting Pikachu to you. I summoned her to this world. From now on, you and she will be partners, so you must take good care of her." Even though Uchiha Hayato understood Minato's personality, he still added that extra sentence.
"I understand."
The electric mouse curiously surveyed her surroundings. Although she had left her family to travel, how had she suddenly found herself out of her original forest? Two young boys were staring at her, especially the blond one, whose intense gaze made her a little scared.
"This is… my Pokémon?"
Minato Namikaze rubbed his hands. He, who was usually calm, now felt a hint of excitement.
"Yes, her name is Pikachu, and she is an Electric-type. The electric pouches on her cheeks are where she stores power. If she encounters danger, she will release a very powerful voltage."
Minato Namikaze didn't know what to say, only nodding repeatedly. Her round, chubby face, adorable and playful expression, and body covered in smooth, short fur deeply attracted him, making him want to immediately embrace her.
"Say hello to your Pikachu."
Uchiha Hayato smiled, paused, and then stepped back to Kushina's side, leaving space for Minato and Pikachu.
"Hello, Pikachu, my name is Minato Namikaze. From now on, you are my companion. Let's get along well."
Minato Namikaze, with a joyful smile on his face, lifted Pikachu up.
"Pika… Pikachu—"
A dazzling Quick Attack exploded in the training ground, startling a flock of birds resting in the trees.
Uchiha Hayato covered his mouth, trying his best not to laugh out loud.
In front of him, Minato Namikaze's bright yellow hair had turned completely black, and he coughed out a puff of smoke.
"Hayato, you never said Pikachu would attack me…"
"Hahahahahahaha!" Kushina put her hands on her hips and burst out laughing. "Minato Namikaze… you, you look so funny…"
"It's my fault for not explaining it clearly," Uchiha Hayato stifled his laughter. "Your Pikachu is a girl, and treating a lady like that would naturally scare her."
He threw out his Premier Ball. "Xiao Yan, it's up to you. Please explain the situation to Pikachu."
"Ow (￢д￢.)"
"Pika-pi (°〆°:)"
Minato Namikaze looked worriedly at the two Pokémon communicating: "Is this really okay?"
"Don't worry, they have their own ways of communicating. If you spend enough time with Pikachu, you'll also understand each other's language," Uchiha Hayato said with a smile.
"Next, what you need to do is learn the Summoning Technique and form a contract with Pikachu. Before that, the Poké Ball is her home."
Uchiha Hayato threw out a Poké Ball.
"Pika, Pika Pika (☍﹏⁰)"
"Ow woo, roar roar roar Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)"
The two Pokémon gesticulated wildly, a scene that made Uchiha Hayato laugh out loud.
Only then did Pikachu understand that she was no longer in her original world. After a brief moment of loneliness, an immense sense of ambition rose within her. Let her be the first brave Pikachu in her species to conquer another world!
"Pika-pi (˵¯͒¯͒˵)"
Pikachu scurried on her short legs and leaped onto Minato Namikaze's head, then patted his head with her small, chubby hand.
A smile appeared on Minato's face: "Hayato, does this mean Pikachu has accepted me?"
"Um… I guess so," Uchiha Hayato equivocated, trying to hide the pity in his eyes. From Pikachu's behavior, it looked more like she had tamed him, the human.
"Minato, I plan to use Shadow Clones for school from now on. The knowledge taught in school is no longer useful to me," Uchiha Hayato said with a smile. "If you learn the Shadow Clone Technique, we can train here together."
"Is that really okay?" Minato Namikaze took Pikachu off his head and held her in his arms.
"It's fine. Don't you think what they teach in school is too simple? I have training notes left by my parents. Before graduation, let's get as strong as possible."
"Me too, me too!" Kushina raised her hand, like in a classroom.
"Kushina, Minato, and Hayato…" Dekai walked over from a distance.
"Hayato, I've apologized to everyone I've ever bullied." His eyes burned as he looked at Uchiha Hayato, wanting to hear something from him.
"What a bother," Uchiha Hayato muttered. He had only mentioned it casually, but he didn't expect Dekai to actually do it, and now he was sticking to him like a stubborn plaster.
"And then what? What do you mean by looking at me? Do you expect me to praise you?" Uchiha Hayato sneered. He would never be kind to a former offender, unless he had truly changed, but such a thing cannot be seen immediately.
Minato Namikaze offered Dekai an apologetic smile: "Dekai, if you've truly changed, then I think everyone will have a different opinion of you."
Dekai's dim eyes lit up again, as if he recalled the Third Hokage smiling at him.
"I can confirm that Dekai did apologize to Yakushi Nonou."
Two more girls arrived at the training ground. The one who spoke was a Byakugan user with a ponytail, and accompanying her was a blonde girl wearing glasses.
Yakushi Nonou.
Another plot character appeared!
He looked at the girl beside Yakushi Nonou. No matter how he looked at her, she seemed familiar, yet he had never seen her before.
The girl's Byakugan blinked at Uchiha Hayato. Seeing him openly observing her, a wave of shyness involuntarily surged within her.
Why are you staring at me? The girl glared fiercely at Uchiha Hayato.
He suddenly realized why she seemed familiar. The girl's appearance combined characteristics of Hyuga Hinata and Hyuga Hanabi. Could she be their mother?
