Pokémon Scenario: Intercepting Gible at the Start

Chu Tianba decisively avoided confrontation and did not seek trouble with Shang Qiu.

His plan at the time was this: A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years; never underestimate a young man's potential.

However, as he paid more attention to Shang Qiu, his mind gradually changed to: A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall!

Damn it... The number one person under the Heavenly King at less than 20 years old, and possibly even the Heavenly King himself, who can afford to mess with him?

But to his utter surprise, instead of looking for trouble with Shang Qiu, he unexpectedly ran into Shang Qiu here.

Actually, we don't need these magical treasures.

Chu Tianba turned and left without a second thought.

But when he wanted to leave, Shang Qiu refused to let him go.

The Dragon Kingdom could announce a major price reduction for elf supplies at any time, at which point those elf treasures would be worth more than half.

It would be better to take this opportunity to let Chu Tianba buy it, and make him happy for a while.

This can be considered compensation for sending Chu Tianba to jail last time.

"Hey, Brother Tianba, how have you been?" Shang Qiu pretended as if he had just seen him.

"You've traveled a long way to Baozhou Prefecture, surely to see Mengyao?"

"Why are you standing at the gate? I feel so bad for you. I'll go and call Mengyao out right away. We'll treat you to dinner tonight."

Upon hearing Shang Qiu's words, Chu Tianba was taken aback.

He didn't understand why Shang Qiu was being so polite to him, but in just a moment, he guessed something from how Shang Qiu addressed Chu Mengyao.

This kid must have caught up with Chu Mengyao, now he's just waiting for Chu Mengyao's family to give their approval!

Thinking of this, Chu Tianba's tension lessened somewhat, but he still didn't want to get entangled with Shang Qiu any longer.

"No need, no need. I wish you both a happy marriage and many children. I suddenly remembered that I have some things to do in Longjing, so I'll be going now."

During his time in prison, Chu Tianba had already learned how to be a good person under the tutelage of others.

Being a little timid won't do you any harm.

This was a lesson he learned after revealing his identity in the prison and being entertained by the poachers there for three days and three nights; it was a lesson he had long since etched into the depths of his soul.

Seeing Chu Tianba determined to leave, Shang Qiu scratched his head in anguish.

This guy is being way too cautious.

It seems that the soft approach isn't working, so we'll have to resort to a hard one.

If we hadn't run into Chu Tianba today, that would have been fine, but since we have, we must grant him one wish.

Shang Qiu reached out, and a black Poké Ball cracked open under Chu Tianba's feet, revealing a jet-black Tyranitar blocking Chu Tianba's path.

"Bangiras, stop him!"

"Chu Tianba, I'm not going to pretend anymore. Just tell me what your scheme is. I don't believe you would be so kind as to come here to see Mengyao."

Upon realizing that the other party was an enemy, Bangiras crossed his arms, struck a ferocious pose, and licked his exposed fangs with his tongue.

When Chu Tianba saw Bangiras's monstrous appearance, his body went limp and he almost knelt on the ground.

He is a very vengeful person, and it is precisely because of this that he has done a very thorough study of Shang Qiu.

For the man in front of me, killing someone in the city is routine.

"I...I meant no harm." Chu Tianba tried hard to look away from Bangiras, afraid that he would wet his pants in fright.

"Hmph!" Shang Qiu turned around, feigning displeasure, and ignored Chu Tianba.

Seeing that Shang Qiu was about to leave, Chu Tianba panicked completely.

It's fine if you leave, but take this Tyranitar with you. What if it goes crazy without its owner?

Bangiras lived up to Chu Tianba's expectations, drooling as he stared intently at Chu Tianba, using his terrifying face skill to make the most perverted appearance he had ever made.

"Ah—ah!" Under the effect of the terrifying face, Chu Tianba completely broke down and knelt on the ground crying.

"Waaaah—Shang Qiu, I really didn't mean any harm, please take your spirit back."

"I only came here to buy some Pokémon treasures to take with me. There aren't enough Pokémon treasures to sell in Dragon Capital, sob sob sob—"

Upon hearing Chu Tianba's words, Shang Qiu turned around at lightning speed and walked back with a grin.

In order to avoid Chu Tianba noticing anything amiss, he even completely played the role of Chu Mengyao's boyfriend.

"Oh dear, what's wrong with you, brother-in-law? Stop crying, it'll be bad if Mengyao sees you like this."

"If you only wanted to buy some magical treasures, you should have said so earlier."

"I'll go find her right now and make her sell you all the elven treasures!"

Chapter 691, Part 250: Chu Tianba

Shang Qiu left Banjilas and Chu Tianba outside, and pushed open the door to go inside himself.

As soon as the door was pushed halfway open, Chu Mengyao came out.

Upon meeting, Chu Mengyao crossed her arms and complained to Shang Qiu.

"Xiao Qiu, you still remember to come to my place! You went to West Asia for so long and didn't even take me with you!"

"So busy..." Shang Qiu said, feeling embarrassed.

"Hmph!" Chu Mengyao glared at Shang Qiu fiercely, clearly not believing his explanation. "If you go out without me again, I won't forgive you."

Although Chu Mengyao said she was angry, her anger had already dissipated when she saw Shang Qiu calling Chu Tianba "brother-in-law" in the room.

Since Shang Qiu had agreed, she didn't intend to embarrass him.

"How much do you want to sell our breeding facility to Chu Tianba?"

"Huh?" Shang Qiu didn't react for a moment. Why was Chu Mengyao's thinking so jumpy?

One second they're talking about feelings, the next they're discussing business. No wonder she's a wealthy businesswoman...

"Sell them all, because this time..."

"Okay, then let's sell them all." Before Shang Qiu could explain why, Chu Mengyao had already nodded in agreement.

"Huh?" Shang Qiu was confused again. Why were they talking business one second and then acting so casually the next?

"Such a big deal, aren't you going to ask why?"

Chu Mengyao blushed, turned to the side, and fiddled with her fingers.

"It's none of my business if you take things to your brother-in-law."

Shang Qiu: "???"

......

Five minutes later, Shang Qiu and Chu Mengyao explained the reasons and the policies that the Dragon Kingdom Alliance was about to release.

Upon hearing these three policies, Chu Mengyao's eyes almost lit up.

She's been running the breeding center for so long, and she often sees talented people who can't get Pokémon. And these are the majority of them; she can't help them all even if she wanted to.

This was a nightmare for Chu Mengyao, who had always longed for a better world.

But now, the nightmare is suddenly about to turn into a beautiful dream.

Although this reform would incur significant costs for the breeding center, Chu Tianba promptly approached her, eager to help cover the costs of the most expensive Pokémon.

This time, it’s a win-win situation for all three parties!

Every time the Dragon Kingdom wins, the common people win, and she wins too.

The world was only achieved when Chu Tianba was injured.

Thinking of this, Chu Mengyao couldn't continue chatting with Shang Qiu, so she grabbed him and walked out.

"Let's go, let's hurry up and sell him the stuff, otherwise what if he runs away?"

Shang Qiu was almost pulled down. "Hey, slow down! I've got Bangiras watching him. He can't run away."

"You've worn my shoes out almost completely. Next time, please replace the floor of the nursery with tiles!"

After the two walked out of the Growlithe breeding center, Chu Tianba was still kneeling obediently at the door, looking at Banjiras with a smirk.

Every now and then, it would hand a plate of fine elf food to Tyranitar, as if afraid that the big guy in front of it would eat it if it got hungry.

"Hey, brother-in-law, I've found Chen Mengyao."

Upon hearing Shang Qiu's voice, Chu Tianba felt as if he had been granted a pardon and scrambled to his feet.

"Good brother-in-law, hurry up and put this Tyranitar away, I've already fed it for you."

"Okay." Faced with Chu Tianba's request, Shang Qiu nodded decisively without any intention of refusing.

However, after putting away Tyranitar, Shangqiu summoned another Dragonite with crimson eyes.

Chu Tianba: "..."

Seeing the drool at the corner of Dragonite's mouth, Chu Tianba was speechless at first, then instantly understood.

"Brother Dragonite, wait a moment, I'll go find the best food for you right away."

While searching for Pokémon food, Chu Tianpai felt incredibly frustrated. He, the manager of the Growlithe Breeding Center, had been reduced to a mere zookeeper...

Chu Tianba secretly vowed that he must take more than 50% of the spirit treasures here today and make a fortune, so that he would not have wronged his status.

Seeing the fleeting ruthlessness in Chu Tianba's eyes, Shang Qiu and Chu Mengyao exchanged a smile.

This matter is settled today!

"Chu Tianba, what brings you here? Don't think that just because Shang Qiu gives you face, I'll do things for you."

Upon hearing Chu Mengyao's words, Chu Tianba's competitive spirit ignited fiercely.

Chu Mengyao, you're still as arrogant as ever.

If Shang Qiu hadn't been here today, I would have looted all the valuables in your breeding house!

Even if he were in charge... he would still need to take away more than half of it.

After setting his expectations, Chu Tianba slowly opened his mouth, adopting a businesslike demeanor.
