Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 813: Mutual Appreciation

An abrupt voice suddenly rang out, and Yu Hai was frightened to death. He subconsciously clenched the Poké Ball with both hands, ready to release the Strider without hesitation to give the person who made the sound a fatal blow.

Just when he was about to make a move, he saw the person in front of him clearly. It was a familiar face, smiling at him.

"Eh? Master, why are you here?" Yu Hai looked at the smiling master, Atsumi's father, and instantly felt extremely embarrassed. He kept wondering in his heart, was he caught in the act?

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to be so rich." Dunmei's father narrowed his eyes and stared at Yu Hai with a smile. In Yu Hai's eyes, that smile was creepy no matter how he looked at it.

Yu Hai knew that he could no longer hide it. Since Dunmei's father showed up here, he must have been at the auction last night. Then his buying and selling here must have been discovered. He hurriedly explained: "Um, owner, I'm here to support..."

"Okay, how can I not know what you are up to? Hurry up and pack up, let your friends disguise themselves, and come out with me." Dunmei's father saw everything last night. His Slow King was right next to him at the time. As a quasi-champion-level elf, it was not difficult for it to monitor the entire place.

If it weren't for the fact that King Slow sensed a familiar aura nearby, locked onto Box 22, and quietly informed him through telepathy, he would have no idea that this brat actually came to the auction and was in Box 22.

When he heard the noise coming from box 22, Dunmei's father was really surprised. He didn't expect that this kid was so rich and powerful, with hundreds of millions of liquid funds, and he spent them without blinking an eye.

He never expected that this kid would dare to destroy the alliance's plan. However, at that time, there was a fierce battle between the kings, and he had no time to pay attention to this kid who took the opportunity to escape.

After the battle, seeing many superstars being captured and then looking at the luxurious lineup of his own side, Dunmei's father suddenly came to his senses.

This kid’s strength is not that good. Trainers who are stronger than him couldn’t escape. Logically, it is even more impossible for this kid to escape. Could he still be hiding on the ship?

After a careful search, he really found that Yu Hai was still on the boat. If it weren't for the fact that King Dai Dai was extremely familiar with the unique dark aura on Yu Hai.

Then, sticking to the wall of Box 22, I concentrated on using my perception ability, but it was difficult to find the boy's dark elf hiding under the sofa.

He just tried to communicate with the dark elf and persuade it to release Yu Hai, but the dark elf was extremely stubborn and refused to listen.

In desperation, since Slowking was stronger than the Dark Elf, he had to use "physical persuasion". Gengar looked helpless and was forced to spit out Ukai and Luoyan from the other dimension.

This is why Yu Hai saw the smiling face of Dunmei's father as soon as he came out. To be honest, Yu Hai was very panicked and completely at a loss for a moment, but in this situation of being caught, there was really no better way to deal with it.

The Soft King was standing nearby, staring at them intently, giving off a very oppressive vibe. Yu Hai could only bite the bullet and follow the instructions of Atsumi's father.

He turned around hurriedly and urged Luoyan in a low voice to put away his diving respirator and oxygen tank, and asked Luoyan to use Ditto to disguise his face again.

As for himself, he did not need to disguise himself and was ready to act in his true identity. After everything was ready, he quickly caught up with Dunmei's father. After hesitating for a moment, he asked cautiously, "Master, you are not planning to hand me over to make merit, are you?"

"What? You just don't trust the owner?" The corners of Dunmei's father's mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile that seemed gentle, but made Yu Hai feel uneasy.

In Yu Hai's eyes, no matter how friendly Atsumi's father's smile looked on the surface, it always revealed a chilling meaning. There was no warmth at all, only hideousness and horror.

He never thought that Dunmei's father would actually participate in the alliance's actions. If he had known this, he would never be so careless and confident that his Gengar would not be discovered.

After all, the people he had the most contact with on a daily basis were the Dunmei family. Even King Daidai was familiar with their aura, and he could probably accurately feel his location with his eyes closed.

"Master, please stop laughing. I'm almost scared to death." Yu Hai's voice was obviously trembling. He was really panicked.

Fortunately, the one who caught him was the owner of the museum, so he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart and room for maneuver. If it were someone else, he would have no way to explain himself, and even if he took off his pants, he would not be able to wash himself clean.

"Haha, don't be afraid. The alliance's operation has ended, and now all that's left is the finishing work." Atsumi's father smiled, raised his hand and gently patted Yu Hai's shoulder.

He secretly sighed in his heart, this boy usually keeps a low profile, but he didn't expect that he is so secretive and has such a side to him. I'm afraid his daughter doesn't know it yet.

However, he has never been a person who asks questions to the end. After all, everyone has some past that they don't want to talk about...

Besides, it wasn't something particularly bad that this kid came here. It was just some behavior that was not in compliance with the laws of the alliance.

Besides, this kid will be the son-in-law of his own gym in the future. He saw clearly the scene of punishing the host last night. Fortunately, this brat did not touch the host, so he barely approved of it.

He is capable and courageous, can resist temptation and stick to his bottom line. He is a very good guy, but he is a little talkative and never says anything serious, which makes his daughter run around in circles.

"Phew, that's good, Master, you almost scared me to death," Yu Hai let out a long sigh, his tense nerves finally relaxed a little. He secretly winked at Luo Yan, signaling him not to be so nervous, it looked like everything should be fine.

The two followed Atsumi's father out of the cruise ship. As soon as they stepped out of the cabin door, a biting chill hit them in the face. Yu Hai then realized that it was snowing outside.

Looking around, the originally vast ocean has been covered with white ice and snow, a blanket of silver.

The battlefield was full of potholes and the smoke had not yet completely dissipated, which, combined with the snow scene, looked particularly strange.

In the sky, a big sun was hanging high, emitting strong sunlight, but the ice and snow showed no signs of melting. It was really magical. He couldn't help but blurt out: "Damn, this is not scientific..."

"This is all because of the ice king Kona. The battle caused the ice and snow. The battle that can even change the weather. She is really a terrifying woman." Dunmei's father shook his head slightly and sighed.

Thinking back to the battle last night, it was too brutal. Fortunately, no one on his side was seriously injured. However, there were too many people involved, so he didn't get much credit. He only captured a top trainer.

Fortunately, with the old man's Dai Dai King protecting him, no one can hurt him. He just came to the battlefield to gain experience and combat experience.

"It's so cold." Yu Hai muttered, rubbing his exposed arms vigorously. He only wore a short-sleeved shirt when he went out, and he was shivering with cold.

Luo Yan followed closely behind him, also with his arms tightly clasped across his chest, his whole body curled up into a ball, staring at the snow and ice with his eyes wide open, his face full of shock. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word, obviously shocked by the spectacular sight before him.

"Madman, we had a great time working together last night. It's time for us to leave. If I get a chance in the future, I will definitely have a good fight with you." Xiba appeared quietly behind the three of them at some point. He had a smile on his face and looked straight at Dunmei's father.

After the fierce battle last night, Xiba recognized the opponent's strength from the bottom of his heart, especially the powerful Slow King, which left a very deep impression on him.

"It's Shiba." Upon hearing the voice, Dunmei's father turned around, stretched out his hand and shook hands tightly with Shiba, with a humble smile on his face and polite words repeatedly.

He recalled that last night, the Fighting-type Pokémon sent by Siba had cracked the ten-kilometer ice surface with just one punch. The terrifying power still frightened him. "Haha, it's a pity that you don't compete for the Four Heavenly Kings. With your strength, you can definitely do it," Siba said sincerely. In the battle last night, the opponent showed a superb ability to control the situation, which still made him sincerely admire him, especially the Slow King who played a key role on the battlefield.

"Brother Hai?" Xiaoying followed behind Xiba. When she saw Yu Hai, her eyes lit up instantly and she shouted excitedly, "Brother Hai, did you also participate in the operation last night?"

"Hey, Ou Doudou, you are here too. I was on the periphery last night and didn't directly participate in the operation. I just followed the owner of the museum to broaden my horizons and see the world." Yu Hai greeted Xiaoying enthusiastically with a smile on his face.

He secretly felt lucky that since Dunmei's father had no intention of exposing him and even helped him to keep it secret, he would continue to act with this identity.

"Xiao Hai, right? Xiaoying's elder brother. I often hear Xiaoying talk about you." Xiba turned his gaze to Yu Hai. He did not doubt what Yu Hai said. After all, they were all acquaintances, and Yu Hai was Xiaoying's elder brother, so he naturally would not think too much about it.

"Hello, King Shiba. Thank you for your care for Xiaoying during this period. My brother has been naughty since he was young. I don't know if he has changed now. I hope he has not caused you any trouble?" Yu Hai greeted King Shiba with a smile, but there was a hint of imperceptible nervousness in his eyes.

The King of Sheba in front of him is as burly as a human tank. Just looking at the solid muscles on his body, you can tell that he is not someone to be trifled with. His big muscles are likely enough to crush someone to death.

“Haha, Xiaoying is a good kid, and you are good too. I have been following all the competitions you have participated in. Come on, and strive to get a seat in the Four Heavenly Kings in the battle for the king.” Shiba keenly noticed Yu Hai’s restraint, so he laughed heartily, trying to break the slightly tense atmosphere with his enthusiastic laughter.

"I will try my best, King Xiba, and I will not lose to you, Ou Doudou, it's not nice for an elder brother to lose to a younger brother," Yu Hai said as he looked at Xiaoying, scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and responded with a dry laugh.

At this moment, he knew very well that talking too much would easily lead to mistakes, so the best way right now was to follow what others said and deal with the current situation first.

"Brother Hai, I won't lose either," Xiaoying heard Yu Hai's invitation to fight. Defeating Yu Hai has always been his goal, so he naturally became excited again.

"Madman, who is this?" Seeing the two brothers getting excited, Xiba shifted his gaze away from Yu Hai and fell on Luo Yan who was behind Yu Hai.

When Xiba saw this, Luo Yan was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He kept wondering, how come the Four Heavenly Kings suddenly noticed a nobody like him? Should he say something now? If he didn't say anything, would he be exposed?

Luo Yan was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He could only look to Yu Hai for help. However, Yu Hai didn't pay any attention to the situation here. It was only when Dun Mei's father spoke up that he came to the rescue.

"They are my gym's apprentices. I asked them to come over last night so that they can take care of each other. If they meet a master whom they cannot defeat, they can run away separately!" Dunmei's father turned his head to look at Luoyan and saw that Luoyan had a younger face.

It was reasonable for him to describe Luo Yan as a gym apprentice. After all, gym apprentices were not included in the scope of alliance action personnel, and whether they came or not was entirely up to the decision of the gym owner.

Moreover, in this battlefield that gathers many top trainers, the role that the gym apprentices can play is really limited, and no one will care about one or two more people.

"That's it for now. It's getting late. We'll meet again later if we have the chance." Xiba didn't ask any more questions. After saying goodbye to Dunmei's father, he turned around and prepared to leave. He shouted to Xiaoying, "Xiaoying, it's time for us to go..."

"I'll be right there, Teacher Xiba!" Xiaoying glanced at Yu Hai, her eyes full of reluctance. After this separation, she didn't know how long it would take before they would meet again.

But when he turned around and saw that Xiba had already walked away, he could only grit his teeth and shouted to Yu Hai: "Brother Hai, see you at the King's Tournament..."

"Xiaoying, goodbye!" Yu Hai raised his hand and waved vigorously. He knew in his heart that the next time they would meet would most likely be at the King of Kings Tournament. For some reason, a sense of melancholy at parting surged in his heart.

"Your brother has a good teacher." It was rare for Dunmei's father to compliment someone. He withdrew his gaze from the direction where Xiaoying left and instead looked at the messy ice battlefield in the distance.

At this time, there were still many staff members busy cleaning the battlefield. He sighed softly and said, "It's time for me to go back. Boy, didn't I tell you before to leave the Orange Islands as soon as possible? Don't wander around anymore, hurry up and leave..."

"Master, I promise there won't be a next time." Upon seeing this, Yu Hai hurriedly bowed respectfully to admit his mistake. If it weren't for the master's help this time, and Xiaoying's unintentional help, he would probably have been in big trouble this time.

"Just keep this in mind. Leave here as soon as possible and come back when the situation in the Orange Islands stabilizes." Dunmei's father stretched out his hand and gently placed it on King Daidai's shoulder.

In the end, he still didn't say anything like "don't go to the black ship", because he knew that even if he said it, it might not be of any use.

As a young person, you always have to go out on your own and experience some hardships. When something really happens, you can talk about it later.

As long as it's not a big deal, he still wants this cheap son-in-law. He will support his son-in-law and can't let his daughter be a widow.

"Master, wait a moment." Seeing that Atsumi's father was about to leave, Yu Hai quickly reached into his backpack and quickly took out the Poké Ball containing the King Sting Jellyfish. He quickly stepped forward and handed it to Atsumi's father with both hands, with a simple and silly smile on his face.

"Master, I know the hot spring center is still short of funds for construction. This king-level elf should be enough. It's not convenient for me to handle it myself, so I'd like to trouble you to help me..."

"You little brat, you even walked through the back door to the owner." Dunmei's father cursed with a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of relief. He didn't mean to blame Yu Hai at all. Instead, he thought it was a sign of Yu Hai being sensible.

The other party knew that there might be risks in handling this Celestial King Spirit, so he specially handed it to him. He felt angry and amused, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Have you dealt with all the troubles related to this spirit?"

"Everything has been taken care of. This Pokémon was a trophy left behind by one of the kings when they failed to surround and kill me on Otsuka Island," Ukai nodded with a smile. It was simple to communicate with a smart man like Atsumi's father. Many things didn't need to be said in detail and the other party would understand.

"That's not bad. I'll be leaving first." Dunmei's father reached out and took the Poké Ball containing the stinging jellyfish. He looked at the Poké Ball in his hand and saw that the stinging jellyfish was of good quality and would definitely sell for a good price in the market.

A king-class stinging jellyfish can be sold for about 100 million, which is enough to fill the remaining construction funding gap of the hot spring center. Adding the 100 million that Yu Hai had taken out before, these two sums of money together are more than enough to build Yu Hai's hot spring center.

As soon as he finished speaking, Dunmei's father patted King Daidai's shoulder gently. In an instant, a flash of light appeared, and Dunmei's father and King Daidai disappeared.

At the edge of the hole in the cruise ship, which was originally bustling with people, only Luo Yan and Yu Hai were left. The two looked at each other subconsciously, and then they both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Their hearts finally settled down, and they had finally passed this stage without any danger.

"Boss, it was really dangerous this time." Luo Yan said with lingering fear and a slight tremor in his voice. He truly felt the taste of escaping death. If it weren't for the strong connections behind the boss, they would have really fallen into big trouble this time.

"Let's go back first." Yu Hai also sighed. Thinking back to this experience, he still felt scared.

If he could have witnessed the thrilling battle last night, he would probably not feel that he was in a life-or-death situation, but that he was doomed to failure.

Fortunately, everything has been settled. Having connections makes things easier at critical moments. Based on Dunmei's father's attitude today, he even feels that even if he is caught by the alliance and thrown into jail, Dunmei's father will have a way to get him out. It has to be said that this cheap father-in-law is really good.

Maybe by then, he will be sentenced to house arrest, but he can still spend every day with Dunmei. When the storm is over, he may be released and continue to draw a salary in the alliance, and it is not impossible for him to be promoted and get a raise.

Tsk tsk, he secretly sighed in his heart, no wonder everyone in the previous life was scrambling to get into the civil service exam, I'm afraid if you're a dog in there, you'll be sentenced to life imprisonment if you beat him up...
