Dragon Ball: I, Yamcha, am the strongest in the universe

Chapter 68 Daigo: Are there any stones?
While enjoying the delicious meal on the Saint Anno, Yamcha himself was not idle either, and was eavesdropping on the conversations of the nearby trainers.

Most of the trainers on the cruise ship would communicate and share through the method of fighting-exchanging-fighting again-exchanging again. In the eyes of these people, perhaps Pokémon are just a tool for showing off.

Although his purpose was not simple, Yamcha did not like their attitude towards the elves.

After rejecting the proposal of several boys dressed as rich boys to exchange elves, Yamcha planned to go back to his room to rest.

"Hey, guy over there. I have something good here. Would you like to come and take a look?" A man dressed as a fishmonger called out to Yamcha.

Yamcha knew what the other party was going to say with just a glance. The other party seemed not to notice Yamcha's gaze and continued to introduce himself.

"I'm only telling you one person, I have a carp that lays golden eggs."

Magikarp lays golden eggs? That's impossible.
Even in this magical world, it is impossible for a creature to give birth to golden eggs.

The man's purpose is naturally self-evident.

Trick Yamcha into buying his Magikarp.

Fraud exists in every world.

Magikarp is the most widely distributed and most numerous water-based Pokémon in the world. It can be found in almost any 'living water', be it streams, lakes, rivers or even the ocean.

After maxing out the two talents of survival and reproduction, other aspects are naturally unsatisfactory. The racial value in the game is 200, which is almost the weakest elf.

Fortunately, in the game, Magikarp can evolve from Magikarp with a race stat of 20 to Gyarados with a race stat of 200 by upgrading to LV540. It can be regarded as the most useful and easiest to obtain powerful Pokémon in the novice period.

However, this is not easy in reality.

There is no such thing as an experience bar in the real world, and it is not possible to gain experience points by using learning devices or exchanging elves.

The key is that Pokémon like Magikarp are very stupid. Their entire bodies are covered with hard scales, and they can basically not learn any moves except flapping their arms and legs.

In reality, it takes several times longer to breed Magikarp into Gyarados than other Pokémon, and it is very likely that it will not be able to be bred.
The difficulty is not much different from the fish leaping over the dragon gate.

"This is a rare treasure that only comes once in a century. If I didn't see that I like you, I wouldn't tell you. Do you want it?"

The fishmonger kept bragging to himself, and he almost believed what he said.

"Not interested." Yamcha looked at the fish tanks on his stall. There were only Magikarp and Magikarp. He was a Magikarp professional. "If there's nothing else worth seeing, bye."

"Also, if I were you, I'd better not use this method to cheat again. You'll be beaten to death."

Throughout history, there is no good ending for swindlers. They take advantage of other people's greed and the gambler mentality to commit fraud. Those deceived gamblers have spent a lot of time and energy cultivating Magikarp. Once they know they have been deceived and when their beautiful expectations turn into bubbles, they will not know the severity of the consequences.

If someone from another fantasy world heard Yamcha say this, then the other party would most likely take out something good that he didn't know about but that the protagonist could see at a glance, and then sell it at a very low price, thinking that he had made a profit.
But this is the world of Pokémon
The person in front of Yamcha was just an ordinary uncle selling Magikarp. The most he could do was to take out a Poké Ball painted with gold.
So Yamcha got nothing.

"I was considering whether to stop you, but I didn't expect you to be sober." Not long after Yamcha passed the fishmonger's stall, a very friendly voice sounded in the corridor on his right.

He was a man with short hair that looked like a silver-blue equilateral triangle. He was looking at Yamcha with a smile that had a unique affinity.

"Daigo, you can also call me Daihou." The man introduced himself very friendly. The familiar name made Yamcha pause slightly.

It's so rare to meet him here.

Zfuchi Daigo, son of the president of Deven Manufacturing Co., Ltd., champion of the Hoenn region Pokémon League, and third among the eight masters.

Yamucha nodded and said, "Hello, Leping."

"You know me?" Daigo asked curiously.

"The champion of the Hoenn League. It would be hard for anyone who pays even a little attention to Pokémon battles not to know this, right?"

Daigo looked very happy, "I didn't expect that people in the Kanto region knew me. I thought you only knew Watari."

The Dragon Messenger Adu is as famous as Daigo. He is the champion of the Chengdu region and one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kanto region. He is the idol of countless young trainers in Kanto and Chengdu. He is a very popular trainer and ranks fourth among the Eight Masters.

The two had a very pleasant conversation. Daigo invited Yamcha, who had originally planned to go back to rest, to sit in the lounge of the St. Annun, and Yamcha readily agreed.

Yamcha noticed that the color of Daigo's pupils looked a little empty, and suddenly remembered that Daigo was originally a blind champion, but he was sure that Daigo in front of him was not blind.

“The milkshakes here taste good.”

After listening to Daigo's introduction, Yamcha ordered a cup for himself. After taking a sip, his eyes lit up. The unique refreshing taste lingered between his lips and teeth. It tasted really good.

Sakura milkshake is a combination of Sakura fruit and Cream Milk Fairy's cream to create a unique flavor.

Of course, it doesn't mean that two elves have to be killed for every milkshake sold. There is no killing without buying and selling. This is ridiculous. The principle is similar to Moo Moo Milk. It is made from a small part of the elves' own production. It can be offset by using a "growth" skill.

"I heard that the Fossil Research Institute in Nibi City discovered a strange stone, so I took a boat from Green Ridge City to come here. But when I got here, I found out that it was just an ordinary moonstone, but with a strange shape."

Daigo tells the reason why he came to Kanto with a look of regret.

Although Moon Stone is also a rare stone, Daigo has too many of them in his collection.

He is an extreme stone enthusiast whose hobby is collecting various precious stones. He is even willing to give up the title of league champion for this hobby.

"Leping, if you find any rare stones, please contact me."

"Stone?"

Yamcha touched his chin and said, "I think I have a spot here. Do you want to see it?"

As he said this, he reached into his pocket and took out a stone.

Daigo's eyes never left the stone when he saw it.

“What is this?!!”
