Doraemon: Nobita with Chat Group

Chapter 22

3rd POV

"Doraemon, don't worry! It shouldn't be a big deal. Can't we just return to the exact moment we left for the future? That should save us time."

Nobita suggested.

He had already discovered this problem.

Every time Doraemon goes to the future, it takes a long time to come back.

But shouldn't time be something Doraemon doesn't need to worry about? No matter how much time he spends in the future, can't he just return to the exact moment he left for the future? It should happen almost instantly.

However, hearing Nobita's suggestion, Doraemon shook his head.

"That's not how it works! The world a hundred years from now will be very different from the present. Due to the emergence of time machines, the future has been stabilized by special means to maintain a constant flow of time."

Doraemon explained.

"Constant time flow?"

Nobita did not understand what this meant.

That means whether we travel from the world 100 years in the future to the past, or from the past to the future, the flow of time remains constant. The time consumed during the journey is fixed and cannot be customized to suit our needs.

For example, if it's currently 12 o'clock noon and we travel to the future, staying there for 3 hours, we can only return to the timeline at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. During this period, we will disappear from the present world and won't be able to use the time machine to travel within the three hours of our absence to stay there permanently."

Nobita repeats Doraemon's words in his mind and understands his explanation.

'So, that means the Time Patrol has imposed some restrictions on time travel,' he thinks to himself. It makes sense to him that they would do something like this to prevent any drastic changes from occurring.

The future world is so special.

As for skipping classes...

'After all, I'm only 10 years old!' He thinks mischievously.

Although he is now able to control the growth of his own body, the identity of his body is still only a child.

"Doraemon, don't you have that Copying Machine in your pocket, we can use that to make a copy of myself who will attend the class instead of me." Nobita remembered a gadget that copies anything it scans.

"But...but you still have to go to class!"

Doraemon always thinks being too lazy and impatient is not good for anyone.

"Don't worry Doraemon! I have become smarter now. I will ace my tests from now on."

"...Are you sure? You got 0 in your previous test too."

"..."

'That's was not me! It was the former Nobita!' Nobita shouts in his mind.

However, Doraemon was still convinced and brings out a gadget to help Nobita.

"This is the Clone Maker gadget. When you press its nose, it will become a copy of you, with a portion of your personality and memories, and will act in place of the original."

The gadget looks like an unfinished doll with minimal features, with it's whole body being white in color.

However, on its nose, there is a red button.

Nobita put his finger on it and presses the button.

After that, the puppet started to expand a little bit. As the puppet expands, his nose, eyes, eyebrows and breath, everything became a copy of Nobita.

It also copied the clothes he was wearing.

"Not bad! It looks just like me."

Nobita circled around the doll and found that it was almost identical to himself except his slightly red nose.

However, through his enhanced senses, Nobita could clearly see the mechanical parts inside it. It's like a robot with a human skin on it.

"I am Nobita!"

The doll said suddenly.

"Yes, you are Nobita, now, go back to my school in my place." Nobita tell him.

Doraemon watched the scene in front of him from the side.

The copy will not only copy the user's appearance, but also the user's personality.

According to Nobita's lazy temperament. Something should go wrong with this doll.

However, it was Doraemon's jaw that dropped seeing what was happening.

The doll nodded decisively.

"Okay, no problem, Nobita, go get busy! Leave the class to me!"

With that said, the copy flies out of the window with a bamboo copter.

"It's done! Doraemon, let's go!" Nobita turns towards Doraemon happily.

Doraemon still shocked lets out a stiff nod, "...Okay!"

The two walked to the desk and turned on the time machine.

In the time tunnel, the two sat on a crude time machine platform. They both quietly travelled through time.

Nobita curiously gazes at the kaleidoscope-like tunnel, filled with wonder.

However, when Nobita came here in reality, he found that the time tunnel does not seem to be that simple, countless light bands circulate in this channel.

Occasionally he could see some shadowy pictures.

Either some mountains, oceans, or a plain simple ground. Even the stars and countless celestial objects occasionally appear in front of them.

Like a certain movie about dreams.

Reaching out his hand subconsciously, a stream of ribbon particles surrounded Nobita's side.

It melted into his body.

"Hey! What are you doing Nobita? That's very dangerous."

Seeing this scene, Doraemon was taken aback.

"It's alright, I feel... these things are harmless to me."

Since Nobita has been strengthened, his body has been absorbing some sort energy all the time. The particles of this time-space tunnel seem to be one of them.

The effect is far more stunning compared to the outside of the time stream.

If outside, his body was improving at a rate of 1 unit per second, but in here? At least ten times faster.

He could minutely observe his improvement now, compared to outside.

'This feeling... its so weird!'

It felt like returning to his mother's womb, constantly nurtured, but at a pace many times faster.

"Nobita, be careful! The time-space tunnel is very dangerous. If you accidentally fall into it, you could get stuck in a point in time where I won't be able to find you easily.

Moreover, these particles seem to be part of... the turbulent flow of time and space?! How are you touching them without something happening to you?"

As countless particles continued to gather around Nobita, Doraemon grew worried that something might go wrong later, even though everything seemed fine for now.

This is no joke.

Time and space turbulence is something that can destroy even future battleships!

But at this moment, it was doing something to Nobita's body!

It scares Doraemon.

"It's okay, nothing is happening to me, on the contrary it's like soaking in a hot spring~"

Time and space turbulent energy feeling like hot springs to Nobita?

Listening to Nobita's answer, Doraemon becomes even more scared for Nobita.

"Doraemon, don't worry, I'm fine, but... if this thing is so dangerous, why isn't our time machine protected?"

Although Nobita can absorb these particles to increase his strength, he can also feel that these particles also contain great destructive power.

This may seem helpful for him, but he knows that it could easily shred others into spaghetti if they do not carry some protective measure.

Doraemon looks a bit ashamed telling this, "...This is the 4th generation time machine from a long time ago. It's relatively old, and it's also an experimental version. But even this has many protective measures that I don't know about."

Even though it is one of the older versions, it is still a very capable machine.

'Fourth generation time machine? The future time technology is so advanced, the development of the time machine must be changing with each passing day.' Nobita thinks, impressed.

"Then, what is the latest generation?"

He asks curiously.

"The latest one is X-999 Pro Max should be the 145th generation."

Nobita looked at Doraemon incredulously.

"There's been 145 different versions of Time Machines? And yours is the 4th generation one??"

Doraemon also scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Aiya~ I can't help it! A time machine is a high-end consumer product. Even this time machine was not cheap for me, let alone those expensive ones."

"Hmmm…"

Nobita looked at the rudimentary platform around him and thought, 'Just how poor was Doraemon before?'

'Doraemon said this time machine is also well protected, right? But is it really safe?' He thinks doubtfully.

Nobita suddenly remembered the an incident from his previous life.

His colleague, a single mother, had been using a scooter for a long time. However, it caused her trouble on rainy days, and her daughter constantly asked her for a car. So, she decided to buy an affordable one within her budget. When they went to buy it, her daughter innocently asked, "Mama, it won't be too cold to ride this in winter, right?"

Hearing the child's concern, everyone nearby burst into laughter. However, seeing the little girl's slightly cold and flushed face, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the child.

Nobita feels the same way now.

"Let's ask about the price of a newer Time Machine there, okay? Something better than this one in terms of protection." Nobita asks Doraemon.

Doraemon laughs embarrassedly and nods.

A few moments later…

Doraemon opened a hole in the tunnel.

"Nobita, we're here! Welcome to the future world!"

Nobita's eyes also brightened, and he jumped out of the tunnel entrance after Doraemon.

...

When Nobita and Doraemon travel to the future.

Nobita's copy also reached his school, and leisurely opens his classroom's door.

As soon as he opened the door, he sees his fuming teacher.

"Nobita! Where have you been? Why are you so late?" The teacher exploded in fury.

"I went to the toilet." The copy Nobita explained.

"That's no reason to miss half the class!"

Saying that, the teacher approached and gave his head a firm bonk, perhaps with a bit too much force.

"Ouch~"

But he didn't realize that Nobita, who was bonked on his head, had a flash of light behind his head and his face became dazed for a moment.

The head teacher felt a bit helpless. He didn't want to treat Nobita any differently, but Nobita was just a unique kind of fool.

"Go back to your seat! Next time, I will complain to your parents."

Listening to the teacher's words, copy Nobita staggered to his seat.

"Nobita, why have you been gone for so long?"

From his left, Shizuka asked in a low voice.

"Hehehe~" But there was only a small smirk on Nobita's face.

'Is Nobita is behaving differently again?' Shizuka thinks.

But since their teacher was still in class, she pushed her curiosity aside and listening carefully.

"Students...your exams are near, this time…"

The class ended soon after that.

After class, Shizuka became a bit worried, Nobita's head was still on the table without looking up.

"Nobita, are you not feeling well? Should we go to the infirmary?"

Hearing Shizuka's call, Nobita, who had bowed his head, suddenly looked up at Shizuka.

His expression looked very strange for Shizuka, she panicked.

"Nobita! What's wrong?"

Just as she was asking her questions, Miyoko on the right also came near them.

Nobita looked at them alternatively, he seems to be deciding something.

Miyoko and Shizuka also looked at each other, and both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

"What happened to you Nobita?" Both ask simultaneously.

"Wives, don't worry, I'm fine~"

"It's good then…"

Shizuka replied subconsciously.

Immediately, however, she felt something wrong about his sentence.

'Wives?'

Shizuka blushed.

Covering her face, she scolded him softly, "Ah! Nobita, what are you talking about? Who is your wife?"

"Hmmm~ aren't you guys my future wives?" Nobita replies with a silly grin on his face.

Miyoko became shocked too!

'What's going on? How did he know about my dream? Wha…' Miyoko's heart was full of such wild thoughts.

However, when she thought of the picture of the two people in their wedding dress?

Miyoko kept poking her point fingers like a certain white-eyed princess.

She quickly runs away with smoke coming out of her head.

"Hey~ Miyoko just ran away~"

Nobita points at her direction and says stupidly.

When Shizuka saw Miyoko running away, she too felt so shy that she also runs outside the classroom.

Nobita tilted his head with a blank idiot like expression with squinted eyes.

Sparks kept flickering from the back of his head from time to time.

"Zzzzz…zzzzz...zzzzz".

…

In future with Doraemon and Nobita.

"Something feels wrong."

As soon as he stepped out of the time machine, Nobita felt his eyelids twitching from time to time.

"You can rest assured, the security in the future is excellent. There hasn't been any crime for years."

Doraemon patted his chest and guaranteed.

"No... I'm feeling, I don't know how to describe it, Doraemon. He pauses for a moment and ask again, "…that Clone Maker, where did you buy it?"

"Hmmm… Last time I came here with the money you gave me, I replaced most of my old gadgets. I couldn't exchange some of them because of their price and condition. But we can do it this time."

Listening to Doraemon's explanation, Nobita finally knew where his bad feeling come from.

"In other words... that Clone Maker is a defective product?" He asks slowly.

"Don't worry Nobita! Although I also bought the second-hand gadget at a discount, but... the only flaw is the screw behind the head. As long as the head doesn't experience a heavy blow, there will be no problem~" Doraemon explains casually waving his hand.

Nobita accepts his explanation.

"That's fine, let's go shopping now!"

Nobita was a little relieved, after all, who would hit his head hard when he had done nothing?

...

"So, this is the future world?" Nobita asks in awe. Looking everywhere with a childlike curiosity.

Almost everything looked different.

Along the way.

Nobita found that compared to the noisy modern city, the future world is much more comfortable. Even with simple doors and various means of transportation.

He saw many people from time to time, riding all kinds of vehicles on the streets.

Some people were riding mechanical horses, others were on flying skateboards. There were even those using cannons to launch themselves into the sky and shoot straight toward their destinations.

The styles of people's clothes are also very futuristic.

One by one, he noticed various hologram-like items floating around, displaying advertisements for different products.

These series of items displayed made Nobita very excited.

"We've reached the future department store! There are many items for sale here!"

Having said that, Doraemon led Nobita into a huge building.

[E/N: The updates here will be a bit irregular for a few days if not weeks.
