I'm a Pokémon Master from School City (by mistake)

From this perspective, the reward that put her in debt becomes interesting.

Explosive tags can be carried and picked up, but cannot be placed in the dream space.

Now here comes an interesting point.

Why can it be used but not placed in the dream space?

Suppose this reward is not a reward but a restriction, restricting the detonation tag and preventing it from entering the dream space.

If this assumption holds true, then a new question arises: why impose restrictions?

Contraband?

Chiyo remembers that in her previous life, any country with a sound legal system and strong government control would regulate explosives.

Detonating tags must be classified as explosives and therefore as controlled items. Moreover, detonating tags are easy to conceal, powerful, small in size, and easy to carry, so they must be contraband.

This reward is essentially a screening mechanism for the dream space.

Here's where things get interesting: what exactly are the circumstances that require screening?

Imagine that the place you are in is a real world, not a world derived by a system, and not a so-called dream.

Based on this assumption, the system needs to allow something to be brought from one world to another, but it cannot allow her to put everything she can pick up into the other world.

So this assumption was made.

'Hmm...' Chiyo pinched her chin. The fundamental problem with this hypothesis was whether it could be proven that this was a real world and not a virtual one created by the system.

"Hey."

Chiyo was still pondering the problem, while Jiraiya looked much more serious, his cynicism gone and his previous impatience lessened.

He sat on the windowsill, legs crossed, as if he had something important to say.

But he's probably rarely serious, so his appearance is a mix of trying hard to be serious and having an unserious air. That contradiction and forced tension makes Jiraiya at this moment seem more like an extreme comedian.

Chiyo showed no sign of wanting to laugh.

In her previous life, she was someone with a high threshold for laughter, and after transmigrating, she found that her threshold for laughter had become even higher.

It's hard to find a joke that can make her laugh.

"What's the matter?" Chiyo asked, sitting up straight.

Compared to Jiraiya's forced act, Chiyo appeared very serious.

He's at least much more serious than Jiraiya.

"You..." Jiraiya had originally intended to ask Chiyo about her past, but after thinking for a moment and seeing how mature Chiyo seemed, he changed his question to, "What are your plans for the future?"

The past is too painful to recall, so why ask any more questions?

"Me? The future?" Chiyo shook her head.

"I see..." Jiraiya seemed to think very seriously for a long time before saying, "It just so happens that I've also been traveling around the world gathering materials."

"Why don't you come with me?"

'Does this mean they really see me as the child of prophecy?' Chiyo was a little surprised.

Although at first I thought that Jiraiya might treat the time traveler as a prophetic child, just like in other time travel novels.

What about yourself?

Chiyo thought about this question carefully.

"I..." Chiyo thought for a moment and said very solemnly, "I want to make this world more lively."

"To make the world more exciting?"

Jiraiya's defenses crumbled in a second, making the world a spectacle? What does this mean?

"The literal meaning." Chiyo noticed Raiya's confusion.

"Hmm..." Jiraiya still didn't understand. He shook his head and said, "Then what do you mean by this?"

“I can come with you.” Chiyo said directly, “I want to make this world more exciting. I don’t know if it will get better or worse. Maybe it will become the way you imagine, maybe it won’t. If that’s the case, are you sure you still want to take me with you?”

"Hmm?" This time, Jiraiya really took it seriously.

Chiyo's words weren't very direct, but they reflected what Jiraiya was thinking.

This is something he never mentioned when accepting disciples.

“Don’t look at me like that,” Chiyo said. “I can see the future, though it’s blurry, but I can see some things about the future. Your future is fragmented and indistinct in my eyes. I can’t see very far ahead of what you want to do, but I can see some of it. The disciples you’ve taught have the ability to change the world, and they also have the drive to do so. They are also changing the world according to their own ideas.”

“I may not be someone you approve of, and perhaps in the future I will come together with one of them, or we may part ways, or even become enemies.”

"In that case, would you still be willing to invite me to embark on this journey with you?"

'The ability to foresee the future?' Jiraiya scrutinized Chiyo.

Prophecy, the ability to foresee the future, is not considered an incredible ability in the ninja world. It is said that the priestesses of the Land of Demons can foresee people's death dates, and the old toad of Mount Myōboku can even make prophetic dreams.

Jiraiya wasn't surprised that Chiyo could see a vague future.

I just suddenly felt that my guess might be correct.

The girl in front of me is indeed from a special ninja clan that was wiped out because of this special ability.

This girl must have suffered a lot to survive.

"Ah..." Jiraiya said nonchalantly, "Who can say for sure what the future holds? The future you see may not be the real future."

"As for your idea of ​​making the world more exciting, that's your business."

"I do not care."

'Do you really not care?' Chiyo seemed to have a question, but she didn't say it aloud.

One can imagine that his words must have made Jiraiya imagine a lot of things, but isn't that what he wanted? In the early stages of Naruto, Jiraiya was the safest and most responsible person.

Although there is a chance of being scammed, it's unlikely that you'll have any contact with Tsunade, who is always hiding from gambling debts, or Orochimaru, who is clearly determined to scam you.

Jiraiya was not intended to be the best choice in the early stages.

'That's settled then.' Chiyo made her decision silently, thinking, 'If you believe I'm the one who can change the world, then I might give it a try.'

Only by trying to change the world, and by making huge changes, can we see whether this is a dream or the real world.

'So how do we change the world?'

It's definitely not just a simple change to the plot.

Any changes to the plot are definitely within the system's presets and deductions.

So what kind of change qualifies as a major change?

Chapter 48 The Path of the Ninja

On an unnamed path leading to the Land of Fields.

An old man? A young man?

Well, it was a middle-aged man and a young girl walking on a dirt road made up of various pedestrians.

A certain Lu Xun master, whose real name is not Zhou Shuren, once said: Confucius said, "Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me."

If she were in a place with a strong academic atmosphere, she would undoubtedly be the quintessential "other people's child."

He would even walk with a book in his hand, diligently absorbing the knowledge from the books.

Even Jiraiya, who was in charge of the roll, felt ashamed.

Since I've decided to take Chiyo as my apprentice, I must teach her something.

Although he felt that Chiyo was probably the last survivor of a certain ninja clan, Jiraiya soon began to have doubts about his judgment.

Since they are descendants of a certain ninja clan, they should have some basic ninja skills.

Can...

When Jiraiya actually started teaching, he discovered that Chiyo's ninja knowledge was practically zero.

不 ...

It's not zero, but rather that Chiyo's knowledge structure is particularly unique.

She knew absolutely nothing about the basics of ninjas, but she did know how to form hand seals, and even knew some of the more advanced ninjutsu hand seals, though many were very basic.

She knew nothing about things like chakra extraction.

Really are...

He had never seen such a peculiar knowledge structure before.

"Actually, you can relax a little." Jiraiya said, looking at Chiyo's curled-up hair that looked like it was about to take flight. "No need..."

"Don't need it?" Chiyo said without looking up, "No, I absolutely need it!"

"It's a promise, right? Once I've learned and practiced my Shadow Clone Technique to the point where I can create five clones, I'm going to learn the Shadow Clone Technique!"

roll!

You absolutely have to roll it!

She has no bloodline and no special abilities. If she doesn't work hard, she will be in danger in this world full of perils.

Let alone changing the world, even just living a decent life is a luxury.

As for being a transmigrator, it didn't bring her any advantage at all. Judging from the current situation, she couldn't rely on the system.

I haven't received anything good from checking in these past few days. All I've gotten are strange and useless things, basically leaves (random, countless leaves), cherry blossom petals (unlimited), very soft and silky toilet paper (100000000 rolls), and tiny wings with extremely high absorbency (10000000000 packs, 1000000000 pieces per pack).

Part of it was for daily necessities, and the other part was leaves, petals, and other things whose purpose I didn't know.

If I had to pick the most valuable thing I got from signing in over the past week, it would be the peach fruit.

Peach Berry is something from the Pokémon world.

These berries can cure poisoning and are a fundamental resource for crafting antidotes in the Pokémon world; they are widely cultivated. Furthermore, they resemble peaches in both appearance and taste, making them one of the most common fruits in the Pokémon world.

It is one of the fruits that is widely cultivated and can be found everywhere.

Chiyo's dream space contains a large number of peach fruits.

So why is this peach considered valuable?

Because this peach has a special characteristic.

Characteristics: This carefully cultivated peach can be planted from its pit, producing offspring that do not degenerate. It yields three times the output of a regular peach and provides 15 minutes of immunity to toxins after consumption.

This means that with the peach seed, as long as she has a peach orchard, she can obtain an unlimited number of peaches.

More importantly, while other peaches can only detoxify, this peach can provide 15 minutes of toxin immunity.

None of the above are the most valuable.

The most valuable aspect is that it can be planted.

In the world of Pokémon, Chiyo did manage to obtain fruit tree seeds, but the problem was that these seeds lost their activity and could not be planted once they were picked up and entered the dream space.

This is the first seed that can be planted.

If it weren't for the fact that she was homeless in both the Pokémon world and here, and that she was still in the hospital in Academy City, Chiyo would have loved to plant the seed immediately.

For now, Chiyo has no choice but to suppress her desire to plant immediately.

First establish a business, then think about planting.

And that concludes our conversation for today.

Jiraiya had already gotten used to Chiyo's behavior.

He's a man of few words, but he seems incredibly intense when he trains.

Aside from eating, sleeping, and irrigating nature, Chiyo spent the rest of her time either cultivating or preparing for cultivation.

Before dawn, we'll start with a 5-kilometer run facing the rising sun; if the terrain is bad, we'll do a 5-kilometer cross-country run.

Then came breakfast, followed by a half-hour rest before warm-up exercises.

Gymnastics, stretching, mixed martial arts.

After lunch, I take a two-hour nap, then do chakra training, learn various kinds of knowledge, and in the evening I do some simple exercises and rest.
