Okami was pleasantly surprised when the Pokemon App acknowledged Baki as an official Pokemon Center Receptionist. He thought that he had to turn Baki into a Pokemon Trainer first and evolved Happiny into Chansey at the same time but that was not the case. He needed to be sure that his guess was correct.

****************************************

Pokemon Center - All conditions fulfilled.

Available for summoning.

****************************************

Indeed, Okami could redeem the Pokemon Center anytime he wanted. If the pokemon lovers back on Earth would know the travesty he did by hiring a middle-aged man instead of a beautiful, redhead woman as the equivalent of Nurse Joy, he would be torn to pieces. But it was refreshing for him to try new things that were not the same with that in the game.

He was excited to find out the benefits of having a Pokemon Center aside from the obvious reason, which was to heal Pokemon. The other thing that he had to investigate was the recruitment of certain clan positions. He would verify what the requirements were after he summoned the Pokemon Center when he returned home.

"When would you like to start working, Baki-san?"

Baki pressed Happiny's cheeks. "How about this coming Monday?"

Okami nodded. "Monday is good. I can also let you become a Pokemon Trainer on that day as well."

"That's good to hear."

Okami stood up. "Well, I still have to meet Naruto tonight, Baki-san."

"Be careful on your way, then."

"Sure. Goodbye." Okami waved his hands and vanished like a popped bubble.

This was the first time Baki saw Okami's skills aside from summoning his pokemon. "Was that a pokemon Jutsu?"

==============================

Okami appeared right at the entrance of Ichiraku Ramen, scaring some people who were about to enter the shop. "Sorry, guys. I mean you no harm."

Everyone was speechless because they were still in a state of shock. Okami suspected that they were civilians because of the way they dressed and how they acted. Despite that, he did not treat them with disrespect and bowed towards them before entering the restaurant.

Okami saw Naruto sitting beside the counter. "Hey, Naruto!"

"You're late! I was waiting for about half an hour already," Naruto complained while taking a sip from the bowl. "I was about to eat my first Ramen when you arrived."

"Sorry, Naruto. I had to do something important at Baki's Sushi shop."

"Heh! It's okay. What matters is that you are here. Come, order what you want. My treat."

"Someone gave me two coupons for unlimited Ramen," Okami explained as he sat down beside him. He saw a slender girl with long, brown hair approaching him. "Hello, Ayame-san."

Ayame smiled at him. "Hello, Okami-kun. Welcome back to Ichiraku Ramen. I heard that you graduated today, congratulations."

"Thank you."

Naruto looked at the coupons. "What is that for?"

"Oh, this," Okami lifted up the coupon so that everyone could see. "I just told you earlier. They are coupons for unlimited Ramen."

"Oh?! Such a good thing exist?!" Naruto stopped eating and stared at the stubs like it was some treasure.

"Yeah," Okami replied as he gave them to Ayame. "One for me and one for Naruto."

"Wow! Thank you, Okami! With this, I can save my money for tomorrow's Ramen."

Ayame received the stubs and inspected it. "Indeed, these are limited tickets for unlimited Ramen. How did you get this?"

"From Kakashi-sensei."

Ayame nodded. "I remembered giving him some tickets yesterday. Anyway, what flavor would you like to order?"

"Miso Ramen," Okami answered.

Naruto grinned. "The usual."

"Please wait as I prepare your order." Ayame went inside the kitchen area and talked with Teuchi.

Naruto finished the last bits of noodles inside the bowl. "Ah! I still need more Ramen. Anyway, when did Kakashi-sensei give you those tickets?"

"Lunchtime. It was right after I left the class."

"Ugh! I still remembered how he arrived late. Every Jounin-sensei came early except for him but I had my revenge when I tricked him with an eraser, heh! Don't you know that he is our Jounin-sensei?"

"Really? What happened then?"

"We went somewhere and Kakashi-sensei had us give a simple introduction so that we can know each other. Well, everyone was good except for that annoying Sasuke!"

Okami chuckled. "After that?"

"Well, he told us that the team is going to have survival training tomorrow, saying that we would totally freak out if we knew what it was about," Naruto explained as he frowned.

"Did you freak out?"

"Who wouldn't?! He said that out of the 27 graduates, only nine will be chosen to become a Genin and the rest will be sent back to the Academy! Can you believe it?!"

Okami shook his head. "I know what he wants."

Naruto had a dumb look on his face. "What?"

"Let me guess. He told you that the reason for graduating from the Academy was to select those who have the chance to become Genin. Did he specify that the training has a failure rate of 66 percent?" Okami gave him a playful look as he continued. "Did he tell you to bring all your shinobi tools and insisted that you have to show your real skills on the training ground? Ah, I forgot the most important part. Did he say that you should skip your breakfast or you might throw up because the survival training will be so intense?"

"Eh! Eh? EH!" Naruto was dumbfounded when he heard Okami saying the exact words Kakashi said this afternoon. "Did you spy on us?!"

"Of course, not. Naruto, believe me. If you don't want to suffer tomorrow, then listen well."

"I'll listen to you because you're my friend."

"Do you believe that I have the power to see the future events?"

Naruto laughed. "I will if you have your own crystal ball."

"Are you thinking of creating a motionless Kakashi doll to use as a practice dummy?" Okami smirked. He may not memorize all the details that happened in the Naruto story but this particular frame from the Manga made him laughed and was marked on his head.

"How in the world did you find that out?!" Naruto shouted as he stood up, his fingers pointing at Okami.

"Now, do you believe me?"

Naruto hesitated first before nodding his head. "Then what should I do tomorrow?"

"Kakashi-sensei will be very late tomorrow, so you can come an hour late as well. You will be taking the Bell Test, wherein your team is tasked to snatch the two bells from Kakashi-sensei before noon. Each one that does not have a bell will have no lunch, so you better eat your breakfast."

"Wait. There are two bells but there are three of us. Does it mean that one of us will fail the test?"

"That is what Kakashi wants you to think," Okami replied as he took a piece of paper and started writing in Kanji. "But the truth is he wants to test your teamwork. So no matter what, you have to show your teamwork with Sakura and Sasuke."

Okami was done writing and gave it to Naruto. "I've included everything I have said earlier on this piece of paper in case you forget, including several strategies you can do tomorrow. Tell Vulpix to wake you up when you start acting unusual because of Genjutsu. And use those Dark embers; they can be quite scary."

Naruto studied the paper. "Can you really see the future?"

"Not all the time. But I can see important things that are about to happen, including this." Okami saw Ayame was carrying two bowls of Ramen. "Don't tell anyone about this."

"Anyone?"

Okami slightly nodded and faced Ayame. "Is that our order, Ayame-san?"

"Yup. Eat well." Ayame set the bowls at the counter. "Well, excuse me. I still have to get their orders."

Okami saw her walking towards the newly-arrived customer. "Well, you can also choose to ignore what I have said. After all, regardless if you follow what I just said or not, I am confident that you will pass the Bell Test."

Naruto grinned and gave a thumbs-up. "That I can agree. Well, let's eat!"

===============================

It took an hour for Naruto to feel bloated with food. Satisfied, Naruto bade his farewell as he insisted to walk and not use teleport. Since Okami's place was in a different direction, they separated their ways.

Okami teleported inside his room. After taking a bath, he went downstairs and checked if the place was properly locked and secured. When he was sure that everything was okay, he walked towards the Pokemon Duplicator because he remembered that he could duplicate another copy of all his pokemon by reaching the achievement - 10 owned pokemon. He summoned everyone, including Kadabra, and proceeded with the duplication process. Once again, ten duplicated pokemon were created. He instructed them to not go outside the house and rest properly for the night. Everyone complied.

Once he was done with the duplication, he checked the Pokemon App and summoned the Pokemon Center.

As soon as he pressed the 'confirm' button, whirring sounds reverberated across the room. It was so loud that Okami was forced to cover his ears.

"What's happening?!" Okami looked around and felt that the house shook like it was experiencing an earthquake. The floor cracked and the light from the bulb grew brighter, which blinded him. He tried running but the movement was so intense that made him fall down the floor.

The last thing that he saw before he fainted was the silhouette of the three birds.

==================================

"Ugh!"

Okami massaged his head as he slowly opened his eyes. The first thing that caught his attention was the desktop computer that was located at the left-most corner of the place. On its right was a metallic, circular counter in blue color, wide enough to contain at most ten grown men. Behind the counter was a 28-inch screen which was situated at the top of the wall where everyone could see. A big machine was posted below the screen.

Several infirmary beds were posted at the right-most side of the area and a narrow passage could be seen between the beds and the counter.

He wanted to stand up when he noticed that the floors were tiled in white. He gathered his strength and looked up the ceiling when he noticed that it was made of glass. Several tubular lamps were fitted in between partitions. He looked around and saw several plants adorning each side of the wall.

"Is this the Pokemon Center?" Okami wondered as he checked the Pokemon App to verify his suspicions.

***********************************

Okami never expected that summoning the Pokemon Center would create a big change in his house. Nevertheless, this change was a good thing for him. He was on his way to become a proper Pokemon Emissary. Even though he did not know how to explain it to his visitors, he had no choice but to claim that he could not tell anyone because it involved the secrets of his clan.

"How will Baki react to this when he starts working? What about Naruto? Team Akira might freak out, hah!"

Okami noticed that only ten minutes had passed even though he felt that the chaos happened for a long span of hours. He walked upstairs and went inside his room to sleep.
