Doraemon's Short Stories (Book 1)

Ninja Training Set

Doraemon saw Nobita lying down again, "What are you doing! You're sleeping again?!?" Nobita said to him, "So what?"

So Doraemon gave him a comic book about "Hattori Kun: The Ninja." So he read it all the way into the end.

After reading, he said "Good thing Hattori Kun can turn into a ninja."

"I know that this is only just a comic book, but it's more better if you had a gadget for me to be a ninja."

Doraemon spoke, "I have a gadget."

Nobita was surprised, "Really?" So he took out from his pocket a scroll, "Ninja Training Set!"

But Doraemon put it back, "Oops, wrong one. This is the one!" He took a bag full of boxes, "Ninja Training Set!"

But before Nobita could get it, Doraemon asked him first, "But, you don't know how to use this."

Doraemon was getting serious, " Don't think that being a ninja is easy. This one is like a quest! Even if it's hard or it hurts, you need to feel the pain incorrect to become a ninja expert!"

So he asked Nobita, "Do you have what you takes?"

Nobita cried," I will do everything to become a ninja! Waaa..."

So Doraemon opened the bag, " There are different kinds of weapons that ninjas are using."

He took the box shaped like a circle, "Suijohoko no Jutsu, to walk above the water." Then he took the box shaped like a tiny rectangle, "Tenguhisho no Jutsu, to jump higher than the house." And then he took the box shaped like a large rectangle, "Shippuyakuriko no Jutsu, to run faster than the wind."

Nobita was taking all the boxes out, but Doraemon stopped him, "Just use only one!"

So Nobita picked first the circle box, "Okay, I'll try this 'Suijohoko no Jutsu', I'll bring it in the public pool. I will walk above the water so Shizuka can see me."

But when he opened it, a was only a pair of slippers and wood around it, "is this the one? That's the slippers that used for walking on water."

So they went to the bathroom, Nobita wore the slippers. Then, Doraemon hold him above the water, "I will let you go, are you ready?"

"Ready."

But when Doraemon let go of him, Nobita immediately fell on the water. So Doraemon told him, "That's okay. That's your first try. You will learn how to use that."

But Nobita went out of the bathtub, then went upstairs, Doraemon asked, "You don't want it anymore?"

"Yes, I don't want to walk on water anymore!"

Nobita choosed the tiny rectangle box, "I want to jump higher than a house." When he opened it, only a seed was inside, "What's this?"

Doraemon said, "Seed of a Robot Tree. If you plant it, it will quickly grow big, and you will jump on it. It will go big as you practice. But you will not know that you're jumping higher and higher becuase you're just jumping on it."

So he adjusted the growing, "You can adjust the growth of the tree. You can use 3 years, 1 year or 6 months."

But Nobita adjusted it, "One hour only. I wanted to jump now!"

When he planted it, it had already grown. So Nobita kept jumping on it until, it was now half-grown, "Woah! It's growing really fast!"

The tree was growing quickly and passing the size of their house, "You need to jump higher" Doraemon said but Nobita was pointing, "I can't do it. That's too high!"
