Chapter-6 : Viridian forest

Kenta pov

It's important to have a long term plan when you want to achieve great things and higher positions in power, I planned out my journey with my knowledge of the pokemon world, Nurse joy informed me that my pokemon healed completely

" Your pokemon are completely healed and ready to set for the journey ''Nurse joy told me

" thank you nurse joy, I will set on my journey, " I told her

" Safe travels, Kenta" Nurse joy waved at me while I am walking away

I said goodbye to nurse joy and I am going towards the viridian forest

Just as I am moving towards viridian, I saw the former protagonist of the show carrying a fainted Pikachu in his hands, the Pikachu condition is very terrible

"Hello Kenta, can you tell me where the pokemon center is? My Pikachu got really hurt by spearrows and then he fainted. I want to go to the pokemon center fast, "Ash asked me

"Sure go southeast to reach it, you already reached it, " I told him

"For real!"Ash said to me

"Okay I am going to the pokemon center quick, I have no time to talk to you, bye Kenta" Ash said to me

Ash then marches towards the pokemon center in a hurry, with a certain redhead with a bike following him in anger,

" Same, I don't have time to talk to you," I told him, which he didn't hear.

I am planning on moving to pewter city in a day, I have no time for simple pleasures, I need to defeat Brock quick, I have no money. Defeating gym leaders give you money in this world

I can't deal with team rocket now, as far I know they are stronger than me now, I can't risk myself, I am not that strong yet. My prime focus should be about being strong, defeating gym leaders in a year, and earning money so that I can gain power

Without power, forget about the team rocket leader, not even Jessie and James wouldn't be scared of me. so that's the main plan

Man, it's annoying. The process takes time but patience Is required to earn anything.I didn't become a scientist overnight but some part of me wanted to spend time with the important pokemon cast like daisy and gym leaders but not now I need power, status, money for my long term plans

as I am walking towards a viridian forest,

I was approached by two team rocket members, one woman with yellow hair and a man with green hair. I forgot who they are, I didn't pay attention to insignificant people in the anime

"Hold it, right trainer, give us your pokemon"The woman with yellow hair replied

"Or let team rocket, mark you as an enemy"The man with green hair replied

" My name is Cassidy," The yellow-haired woman with a red lipstick said

"And I am butch, " The man with green hair said

" We are the top stars of team rocket, "They both said synching each other

They both have good synchronization. The reason they aren't a couple is still a mystery to me.

"Bitch and Cassidy, " I Said their names.

" MY NAME IS BUTCH, IT'S NOT BITCH, WHY EVERYONE PRONOUNCES MY NAME WRONG," He told me

"Butch focus, " Cassidy said trying to argue with him.

"What would you do if someone said something wrong about your hair "He argued with her

"Leave my hair out of this "She argued back to him

As they are bickering and arguing with themselves

I quickly threw Charmander and pidgey

"Lesson number one, never monologue in front of your enemies , Charmander use ember, show them we mean business, "I told him

Charmander embers burned them up, their clothes caught fire. they screamed in pain and yet they quickly composed themselves after some time, do every team rocket grunts are uncapble or are there some people in team rocket who are capable of what they are doing

The better question would be, do they know what they are doing

" How dare you to burn my beautiful hair, come out houndour" She replied in rage

I don't understand what is her priorities.

" Go tyrogue"The bit- Butch replied.

" I don't see any beautiful hair, seriously I saw beautiful women and no you weren't one of them, Cassidy, " I told her . Using the diversion static.

"ARGh" She said clearly buying it

"OOH! Burn"He is diverted by it

" Hey whose side are you on," She replied, clearly shocked by the betrayal

"The side that is right . What he said is true though "Butch replied

They're bickering among themselves again ignoring me

bad move, Let's finish them while they are distracted

"Pidgey uses wing attack on tyrogue and Charmander uses dragon rage on houndour" I commanded her

Tyrouge was quickly defeated by pidgey and houndour was weakened by Charmander's dragon rage, it's time to finish them, I don't have time for this simple battle, I need to leave quickly, time is running out for my plans.

They both noticed that their pokemon defeated and they are shocked and petrified but they can't do anything as they never got a chance to

Whenever something amazing happens in front of human beings their brain will freeze. This is known as the saturation point.

"Pidgey throw them far with your whirlwind" I commanded her

Pidgey used a whirlwind to throw them in the sky, it kinda reminds me of Jessie and James, does that mean they will follow me again?

nay I can't deal with them all the time, I hope they are one-time encounters. Pidgey easily threw them with her whirlwind, I wonder how strong when it will be when it becomes a pidgeot.

"Team Rocket is blasting away, we will remember this twerp"They screamed while flying in the air

" I will sue you for copyrights," I told them

*Sigh*

Since the trouble is gone, now I can freely travel through Viridian city fast

Wait...

Why I am in a hurry, even ash and gray were slow compared to me, so even If everything else connects, then why I am in such hurry, there is no need for me to be in a rush

but

My instincts are telling me to get stronger faster, but what is the reason? The goddess told me that this world is merciful.

Talking about my past life, I can't remember anything other than my profession ever since I was reincarnated in this world

Who am I, what I did to die or the better question would be

Did I even die at all? I clearly have no idea of my past personality, goals, status, power at all.

Man the goddess did tell me about the system, so why did the system not activate, she either lied about the wishes, or will it activate at a certain period of time?

I can sense something happening that I can't ignore or shake off, I need to gain the power to protect myself and my family first, then I can achieve my goals. Protecting my parents is important, I really liked having the embrace of parents and loving parents for the first time, I will start project parental defense after my cover is blown,

I need to defeat gym leaders first, without power I am nothing, I can't even protect myself, I have a plan to make connections with powerful people and gym leaders, I can't achieve everything by myself, I need a team to achieve great things. Two in harmony surpasses one in perfection as they say goes on.

It's sad but I have to admit, I have limited knowledge of this world, I don't have much knowledge yet, that's why I needed to know more,

" ..K-Kenta" A young girl's voice called me

As I was monologuing about possible dangers which I could face, I was approached by a panicking leaf.

*sigh * Now what, I had to deal with an introvert who I can't properly communicate with

" K-Kenta , i am s-so s-scared to go to the forest, can you please go out with me in the forest"She asked me

Is that a confession of love or is she planning to get rid of me?

Let's find out. I feel suspicious of her.I feel it in my gut

Fine, I will help you cross the viridian forest

we approached the forest gate, I am very eager to capture some bugs pokemon for staus effects, and Pikachu for 2nd gym and other things, sadly my poker capture plan is stopped by my rival, man Kanto rivals are incompetent.

I need a blue or red here.

" Wait, Kenta I brought camping set for c-camping at night, "She said in her little tone

" Why did you buy that ?"I asked the obvious question

"Um, t-to c-camp a-at night, I don't w-want bugs to crawl over me," She said with her usual nervous tone

"No need for that, we will reach the pewter city in one day, so no need for a camping set"

"Eh-eh one day?"She replied with a surprised tone

" Yes, one day to the pewter city," I told her bluntly.

"How is that possible , there are beedrills and bugs everywhere" She is questioning my existence

" Oh, they didn't meet my pidgey and Charmander, so of course, they're still breathing. I have superiority over them. I bought 100 antidotes no problem at all" I told her. with confidence. I want to challenge them. I have measures and precautions in case things don't go my way. I am a risk-taker now. Well calculated risks.

I am much interested in good challenges and battles. I don't have tough challenges due to the lack of proper rivals. A swarm of beedrills will improve the resilience of my pokemon. It has huge risks but I have plan B. A flamethrower and a couple of Molotov's for me to use. I am not an arsonists but it will divert beedrills and bugs are afraid of fire.

Poison is dangerous in the pokemon world and anyone can agree . You can never have too many antidotes.

"I remembered a certain man buying 100 watermelons in the math book, so my K-Kenta did the same thing as that guy but still I am so scared about bugs " Leaf muttered

" Okay Kenta , at least let me use repels to repel bugs away then" Leaf tried to change my thinking

" NO"I replied to her

" what but then b-bugs will bite and poison us" She warned me

"LET THEM, "I told her

I don't like her spoiling my new challenge and opportunity for my pokemon to grow up. They too want to have tough challanges.

" K-Kenta, w-we are going to be p-poisoned or hospitalized by that outcome"She replied to me

"I don't care, let us not use the repels, "I told her bluntly

We need to survive in hard situations to become proper pokemon trainer.

" B-but k-"She tried to warn me

" DID I STUTTER?"I told her

" K-kenta I am so scared," She told me

"IF YOU ARE SO SCARED BY WILD BEEDRILLS THEN HOW WILL YOU BECOME CHAMPION, I RATHER BE POISONED AND HOSPITALISED THEN RUNNING AWAY FROM THEM" I screamed at her .

I had enough of these kid-friendly situations.

Let's battle and defeat every bug here. I am prepared for this. I don't think I can defeat stronger pokemon if I lose to some bugs.

Just bugs won't be enough to attract swarms. At most l lose a battle. I have a Plan-B in case I lose.

"This is why I always preferred Gary, Pyro, and even ash above you, you are better than Gary as a trainer but you lack the drive. If you are so scared of little wild pokemon, then how will you face stronger pokemon? IF you are like this, then even ash surpasses above you and that's coming from me"I bluntly told her the truth

Leaf is crying but who cares, everything I said is true, this is for her own good, I don't want her potential to go to waste even if it meant her hating me. I know about her childhood crush but I have to say that, I don't have time for childish crushes now. She is better broken than dead.

Sadly I can't take her in my team as she doesn't have the traits of being driven and ruthless enough to achieve anything at all now and that's the truth

"*sniff* K-ken sorry *sob* please don't be mad" She told me

Well, it's becoming annoying now. I don't have any time to waste, so let's distract her mind. Let's use a trick .
