Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 446 It's decided from above, you will be the king of the island!
King Raicrown is an upright king who will never be bought off by a little favor!

What kind of giant radish is this? Is it as delicious as our Radiant Radish?
But then again!

“My friend, if you really get kidnapped, please help me get some radish seeds back.”

"You surrendered way too quickly!"

"It's not that I want to eat it, it's that I have two friends, as you know, and my beloved horse really likes to eat carrots."

The moss was unable to refute this.

Because the Crowned King really did have two horses.

But they're not your friends anymore!

King of the Brilliant Crown: "Hmm, it will be soon! When the Radiant Flower blooms all over the snowfield, and when my vegetables are sold all over the world, then my power of faith will be endless. With your help, the Radiant Flower can continue to thrive for thousands of years!"

"I will make a hundred reins and tie them firmly! Everything will return: my carrots, my kingdom, my reins, my temple, my beloved horse."

The Queen of the Lacecrown began her fantasy time, but this was nothing new to everyone.

Your Majesty, do not give up on your dream, keep sleeping!
Looking at Tapu Finch again, Lightmoy suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu about this island god.
Oh, right!

Tapu Fini looks just like Yaji!
"Uh, I still don't quite understand why you insist that I settle on Poni Island in Alola. As far as I know, there aren't many residents on that island, and most of the marine people live on boats, right?"

Guangtai shook her head: "Give me a definite answer."

Tapu Fizz's eyes widened.

What, you think you can just pack up and leave after you've used up all my power?
Hmph, as long as you agree to my conditions, you can use my power as you please in the future, and I won't care about you. I might even help you out. Isn't that a great deal?
"Lady~"

Tapu Fini began to speak, as if he were promoting his own island.

The Other Shore Ruins that I oversee were once known as the "Land of the End of Life." If you, as a psychic, master the power contained within the Other Shore Ruins, you might actually be able to bring the dead back to life.

Of course, the premise is that the resurrected person must have "life," but that is no longer within my control. What I mean by resurrection is to permanently bring the soul back to the present world!
Soul plus life!

You must still have people you want to help, right? Even if you don't have any now, you'll keep meeting them in the future, won't you?

"There are two Pokémon that can give life and revive the dead: Ho-Oh and Xerneas."

"But I'm just a human. Getting Ho-Oh's Ash and Xerneas's Branch would be more useful to me."

Tapu Fizz was a little unhappy.

We've already given you such extensive permissions, aren't you satisfied?
"bud--!"

It's rare that I like you so much!

The true meaning that Pony Island represents is actually "help". Do I really need to spell it out for me?
It is precisely because you have helped those living and dead, and are skilled at using my power, that it shows that you and I are highly compatible, which is why I look at you differently.

Okay, I'll tell you then!
"Lady~!"

I want you to go on an island pilgrimage, and then settle on Pony Island, so you can become the "King of the Islands"!

I'm having a headache because Pony Island doesn't have a king right now!

You, your power is perfectly suited to me. Use your power for my own purposes, and this is the price you must pay! Become mine!
You mean... the King of the Islands?!

Wait a mininute.

Doesn't this feel like an official appointment?

"I've never been to the Alola region, although I will go there someday. Thank you for your interest, but this job is too important, and I cannot accept it."

Guangtai was startled, but immediately became serious and refused righteously!

Although in terms of status, the King of the Island can also be considered one of the Four Heavenly Kings!

But the meanings they represent are completely different.

The regional Elite Four can be replaced at any time, and apart from the Padia League, the Elite Four members of other leagues can even slack off and wander around. They only need to go to the league to fight when the tournament starts or when a challenger passes through the Champion's Road. Most of the time they are not obliged to stay at the league headquarters.

But the king of the islands is different.

They are the absolute strongest beings guarding the four islands of the Alola region, and are people entrusted with a great mission.

Generally speaking, the island king cannot leave his island for too long. He is also responsible for protecting the island's safety, teaching new trainers, handling island affairs, and has the right to appoint the island's captain and coordinate island tours.

The book "Guardians and Island Kings" states the following:
The Tapu living on each island entrust the Radiant Stone to a chosen island king or queen.

As for the criteria used to select them, no one knows.

However, the moss forgot one thing.

When Tapu Fini uttered the words of refusal, it was taken aback at first.

He immediately felt embarrassed and annoyed!
It seems like he's about to unleash a furious rage!
"broken!"

"I forgot, when the guardian deity chooses the king of the island, the chosen person cannot refuse, otherwise the guardian deity will be angry!"

"But isn't this rule a bit too self-centered?"

"Lady!" Tapu Fini was indeed angry; her emerald green eyes were filled with annoyance!
To this day, no human being has ever dared to refuse the Patronus's appointment and favor!

You've piqued my interest!

However, just when Lightmoy thought Tapu Fini was about to cause a huge scene, she unexpectedly suppressed her anger!
"Among the four island gods, Tapu Fini and Tapu Lele are considered to have relatively good temperaments."

If it were Tapu Koko, it would have already thrown a punch.

Meanwhile, Giradina, always eager for a good show, let out a loud, grunting laugh:
[Land God, are you angry?]

Tapu Fizz: "Rei-ti (No, no, oh!)!"

Although that's what he said, he was actually quite angry.

But Tapu Fizz still has some sense.

The Aloramen cannot refuse.

But the Lightmoth is not an Alolan, but a Celestial.

The gods, descendants of the gods, have no connection to Alora and therefore refused their assignment. Although this caused them embarrassment, at least no other island gods witnessed it.

However, Tapu Finch was still very unhappy!
I admire you so much, yet you reject me so bluntly. Where does that leave my pride?

Although no island god saw it, there are quite a few legendary Pokémon here!

Man, you need to give me a reason to refuse!

"The responsibility is too great, and I have to protect the island year-round. I'm the kind of person who travels around a lot, and I also have a hometown. I don't have any plans to settle in the Alola region right now."

"If we're talking about climate, Padiyah and United States are also very suitable for living, so it's not a problem with the living environment."

The climate of Kami-dori is similar to that of Sinnoh; it can't be said to be suitable for habitation, but rather that every winter some lucky passersby are randomly chosen to freeze to death, making it quite harsh. In fact, for ancient humans, places as cold as Kami-dori and Sinnoh were not suitable for habitation. The most ideal places to live were warm lands with distinct seasons.

Even after the destruction of Shennong, the people fled to distant lands, and few returned to Shennong.

"As far as I know, there are often people in Alola who go on island pilgrimages. If the island king is not on the island, then the pilgrimage cannot be carried out, wouldn't that be strange? Wouldn't it be accused of dereliction of duty?"

"Furthermore, is it really a good idea to hand the island over to outsiders?"

"Lady?" Tapu Fizz gave a cold snort.

What's wrong with this?

As I said, although Alola has traditions and rituals, our land gods can change the rules at will.

Besides, it's not unprecedented for outsiders to become the king of an island!
The king of Ula Ula Island is an outsider!
As long as it's suitable, that's fine!

Furthermore, if an island does not have a king for the time being, then a person from another island will temporarily take over!
"Ula Ula Island, you mean Merdan?"

Speaking of which, Murdan could be considered his former colleague. He used to be an international police officer, and in addition to infiltrating various villainous organizations, he later belonged to the UB Countermeasures Department. He seems to be an old acquaintance of Giovanni, and probably has experience working with Team Rocket.

This uncle is now a policeman on Ula Ula Island. He usually plays around and likes to play with kendama.

"Does anyone who settles in Alora qualify as an Aloraman? Is the definition of Aloraman so broad?"

"Isn't this the same as Unova?"

The position of King of Ponne Island is indeed currently vacant.
It wasn't until the Sun and Moon era, when players arrived in Alola to begin their island pilgrimage and were about to finish, that Poni Island had a new island queen.

Goddess Mewtwo: "It's quite interesting that something like this can happen when you deal with legendary Pokémon so much."

"Tapufin doesn't seem to want to give up. Your refusal might not be effective."

She finally understood how vast the world truly is, thanks to being in the dream world.

After exploring the land of Unova, should I also travel to other regions, just like Individual One?

"Actually, there should be a suitable candidate for Poni Island. After the death of the former island king, Mr. Sofou, his granddaughter Hapuu should be the best candidate to succeed him as king of the island, and she should also be willing to do so, right?"

"Lady?" Tapu Finch suddenly came closer!

what happened?

Didn't you say you'd never been to the Alola region? How come you know so much about the island king who died there?
[Is it strange that people who are spiritually connected always know all sorts of things?]

Giratina's explanation confused Tapu Fini, but Giratina was secretly delighted.

Being a riddle solver is really fun.

"Humph!"

Tapu Fini waved.

Now that you know about the situation on Pony Island, and regardless of how you found out, Hapuu hasn't matured yet! Her current temperament and state of mind are not enough to make her the queen of Pony Island, which is why I didn't choose her!
Furthermore, the Z-grade crystals on Pony Island are insufficient, and the island's splendid stones have remained unprocessed.

Aren't you the legendary craftsman? Come help me here, and you'll get Z-Crystals too, the whole set!

Lightmoy: "Do you want me to process Z-pure crystals? But those gems should naturally look like that, they don't need any processing at all."

“I remember that Z-pure crystal is a mineral produced from a certain vein. The ore always forms relatively orderly cubes, octahedrons, pentagonal dodecahedrons, or other regular shapes, which is determined by their atomic arrangement.”

Of course, compared to Dynamax and Mega Evolution, Z Power is a universal ability, meaning it can be used freely no matter where you go, which is very convenient, just like Mega Evolution.

"Z-Crystals are the crystallization of natural forces. Z-Power also enhances a Pokémon's moves into powerful special moves—Z-Moves that require dancing to activate."

"In the distant ancient times, the light that leaked out during the great battle between the radiant god Necrozma and Tapu became the Z Force."

"The Light Reaper from the vast sky appeared, shrouding the world in darkness. The beasts that devoured the sun or lured the moon were stolen, becoming the Twilight Mane and the Dawn Wings. The young man and the Guardian used stones to unleash light, separating the two beasts from the Light Reaper and driving away the darkness of Alora."

The moss was muttering to itself, but it didn't expect that it would make Tapu Fini's eyes light up.

Oh! You said you had nothing to do with Alola, but you know about things from the ancient times!
Moreover, the way you seem to know everything makes you no different from those ocean dwellers!

Yes! That's them!

The ocean dwellers are incredible; they skillfully maneuver their ships, know the stars, ride the waves, and visit all over the world.

They are knowledgeable about all kinds of legends and mysteries, and can obtain treasures without anyone noticing!
"Lady~!"

Kapufin is becoming increasingly satisfied with the moss.

The legendary craftsman, like the inhabitants of the sea, knows everything. He is good at traveling around on the map, perfectly suited to his own nature. He also has powerful psychic abilities and a good habit of helping others along the way!

Dare to refuse my nomination?
I've decided on you!
Even before Hapuu grows up, if you want to pay off your debt, you have to do it with your body!
Calyrex: "My friend, you're doomed. Tapu Fini has completely fallen for you. There's no way to refuse now."

Light Moss: "King, are you only thinking about carrots?"

King Lei Guan remained silent, only clicking his tongue repeatedly.

Tapu Fini turned its gaze to the bewildered Ergui Pong, and immediately noticed the little orange's state.

"Lady!"

"Bo, Boni?!"

Tapu Fizz drifted toward Evil Pine, beginning a new round of lobbying!

If you help me persuade this human, you too can meet the person you long for!

You want to see them, right? You want to see the people who have passed away. I can feel your strong desire, the intense emotions and profound memories that have not faded over hundreds of years. Even if someone has been gone for hundreds of years, I can find a way to bring them back to life!

"BoBoNi," Ergui Peng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

No, no, I can't make decisions for others on my own behalf!
Moreover, the legendary craftsman said that he could also arrange for himself to meet the person he longed for!
"Lady (That was with my power!)"

“No, this time it’s not your power.” Lightmoss interrupted Tapu Fizz appropriately and explained the special pool water of Kitakami Village, which made the water guardian who controls life and death pause for a moment, and then he became a little dejected.

What? So you didn't want to come because you found a better place?

Immediately, her anger surged up again!

Damn it, you heartless bastard! What do you want from me to even come here? I'm really angry!
Guangtai thought about it seriously for a while.

"Hmm... Could you give me the Phantom Fruit? Legend has it that when mixed with the scales of a guardian deity and cleansing water, it can neutralize all toxins!"

The guardian spirit was slightly taken aback.

He immediately became even more annoyed!
Good heavens! You scoundrel, you're completely turning the world upside down!
The Phantom Fruit was a gift from the locals, why are you asking me for it?
But... if you can come, it's not impossible to give it to you!

You, come here, I'll feed you with Phantom Tree Fruit! At least work here for three years, okay?
