Chapter 223: A battle?!
In the center of the Uzumaki village, Kushina stood like a magnificent peacock with the cute, fire-spitting Charmander next to her, and the people around her clapped excitedly.
"How beautiful the princess' Charmander is!" A woman said excitedly.
"Mommy, I want a Charmander too!" A child said, tugging at her mother's sleeve in jealousy.
Seeing the jealous children around her, Kushina felt at her most glorious!
I am the only person in the village besides my father's Anbu with a Pokemon, right now I must be the most beautiful girl in the village! She thought with a big smile, loving the adoration people had for her.
But suddenly, she heard something she didn't know.
"Is it possible to have a Pokémon battle between Princess Kushina's Charmander and Riku's Magikarp in the real world?" A man asked curiously.
Since everyone had played Pokemon, they were familiar with the battles between the Pokemons of this world. However, they had only witnessed them in the virtual world, and had never seen them in person.
Now that there were two people with Pokemon in the village, perhaps they could see a real Pokemon battle?
But to Kushina's ear, that was very bad news. "I'm not the only one with a Pokemon?! And even worse, I'm not even the first to have a Pokemon in the real world?! She thought worriedly.
"What did you say? Someone else has a Pokemon?" Kushina said innocently, as if she was just curious.
"Yes, Princess Kushina, my youngest son, Riku, has a Pokemon as well. He won a Magikarp, and now he must train it in the sea around the village." The man replied proudly, making the other people around him look at him with admiration.
"How about you make a Pokemon battle for us to see?" One person suggested, really interested in seeing a Pokemon battle in real life.
Kushina was a little nervous since she wasn't a very good trainer and had only recently started learning from Alex, but considering that her opponent was just a Magikarp, the weakest Pokemon in the game, nothing could go wrong, right?
Confused by all the people around him, Riku became nervous as he looked at his father. "Dad, Riku doesn't know how to fight..."
Seeing the child's nervousness, Kushina felt a little bad and thought that it might really scare the little boy.
So she walked over to him and stroked his wet hair while asking in a caring voice, "Big Sister just came to show the people in the village how cool our Pokemons are. Don't you want to let people know how cool your Magikarp is?"
Although she was also a child, Kushina was 9 years old and had already received ninja training, while Riku was only 3 years old and only played with other children and swam in the sea.
Even though Kushina was very playful and acted very childish, it was only in the eyes of the adults, because to the other children, she was almost like an adult.
When he saw Princess Kushina talking to him like that, Riku was moved. He had always admired her, and seeing her talking to him like that, and then looking at the Magikarp in the sea, who was staring at him expectantly underneath that bored expression, Riku thought that it might be nice for him.
"Okay, Riku will try to fight and show everyone the power of the Magikarp!" he said excitedly, making the people around him laugh and clap their hands, cheering the two kids on.
"All right kids, let's have a fair and lively battle, the focus will be on having fun and showing the potential of each Pokemon!" Riku's father said as he walked away, leaving room for the two Pokemon to fight.
The problem was that even though Magikarp was a Water Pokemon, which was theoretically Charmander's opponent, no one believed it could win because everyone knew how weak that Pokemon was and how powerful Charmander could be.
