Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master...

As a result, Du Juan was so heartbroken by Xiao Zhi's "farewell" that she was foaming at the mouth and couldn't get up to see him off.

Ash took too long to say goodbye because he was so serious about it.

However, he wasn't completely obsessed with the pink watermelon; Ash didn't forget his important business as well.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the new side quest "Go and light up all the teleportation anchors! (Hoenn Chapter)": Please light up the teleportation coordinates of important cities in the Hoenn Alliance! (1/8)]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +8000; Speed ​​+2; Free Attribute Points +4; Milton Battle Ticket Fragment +1 (Rumor has it that collecting four fragments can summon Shenron!)]

The new mission was triggered a long time ago, and now Ash has finally completed his first one in the Hoenn region.

He's just one piece away from getting the Miradon Battle Ticket.

This made Ash start imagining what the new Pokémon he would get in the future would be like.

"For me to expend so much effort, this Milton must be very strong."

Xiao Zhi is cautiously anticipating the outcome.

After challenging the Kanaz Gym, they decided to head to the nearest Gym location to Kanaz City, the Dew Island.

There are only three flights a day to that destination, one in the morning, one at noon, and one in the evening.

Because of Xiaozhi, they missed the noon bus and have to wait until the evening.

"Speaking of which, if we're taking that ferry tonight, doesn't that mean we can move around freely until then?"

Xiaoyao immediately raised her little fist, striking a pose of great interest.

Ash and Max realized something was wrong immediately, but it was too late to retreat.

"Hmph, trying to escape!"

Lightning whirlwind strike!

Xiaoyao hugged them both tightly. During the time she had been training with Xiaozhi, her reaction speed had become faster and faster.

—Wild and chaotic fighting—

"Wudou Island is a well-known resort island. How can you go to a place like that without buying the latest swimsuit?"

"Ah, anything is fine with that kind of thing."

After being taken to eat at four restaurants by the foodie Xiaoyao, Xiaosheng was so full he was about to burst.

But our lively and beautiful girl was still full of energy, and tirelessly dragged Ash and Max to buy clothes.

However, unlike Brock who looked utterly defeated, Ash was in high spirits.

"Xiaosheng, I'm not trying to be mean, but a beautiful girl's swimsuit is a rare treasure in this world. When you see one, you should appreciate it more."

If May hadn't specifically dressed up for Ash to see, Ash would have run away long ago.

It is precisely because of this beautiful scenery that he is now carrying large and small bags without complaint.

But this is completely incomprehensible to the innocent Xiaosheng.

"Why do I have to look at that fierce-looking older sister's swimsuit?"

Xiao Sheng didn't even glance at it; he had absolutely no interest in matters between human men and women.

"I'd be even more interested if it were Pokémon wearing swimsuits!"

"Furui Control?"

"No, that's not true!" (A lie)

Just as everyone was noisily buying their swimsuits and leaving the store, they suddenly saw a large crowd gathered across the street, creating quite a lively scene.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a middle-aged man in a suit and tie setting up a stall to showcase his invention.

He also wore a white hat, which seemed a bit out of place, but his gentle tone and spirited movements still attracted quite a few viewers.

"Alright everyone, young men and women, next I'm going to introduce my latest great invention. This one is extremely amazing, so pay close attention!"

Who is this person?

Xiao Yao, who loves to join in the fun, immediately pulled the two of them in and squeezed in, casually asking a passerby who was also watching what was going on.

"Oh, he's an uncle who often comes here to show off his strange inventions to everyone."

The onlookers actually called him a weird old man?

However, at this moment, the knowledgeable Ash keenly sensed something was amiss.

"This uncle seems to be someone special."

After a series of Doraemon-like sound effects as he pulls out props from his magic pocket, the invention the uncle pulls out turns out to be a quirky toy muscle man.

"What is this?"

"Ta-da! A robot that can automatically open juice jugs!"

The man confidently demonstrated, and then the robot simply "crushed" the juice can.

The muscular robot, looking as if it had been constipated for ten years, finally managed to open the can, but juice sprayed everywhere.

"Ah, another failed attempt."

"This isn't fun, let's go."

……

"What? How boring."

The uncle had been so confident just now, but this was the thing he pulled out. Xiao Sheng really felt like all his previous expectations had been wasted.

"But I do think that robot looks kind of cute." Ash's peculiar aesthetic sense kicked in.

Perhaps because he heard Ash's praise, the white-haired uncle actually ran up to Ash and the others after everyone left.

He warmly shook hands with Ash and his friends one by one, not even sparing Pikachu.

"Oh, thank you so much for your appreciation."

"Young man, you must be Ash from Pallet Town, right?"

"Oh, uncle, you know me?"

Ash didn't expect that he would be recognized by an old man on the street right after he finished challenging a gym in the Hoenn League.

"Haha, of course! I happened to be watching your gym challenge match before, and you played really well, kid."

The Kanaz Gym is open to the public and allows citizens to visit during battles. The old man was just passing by when he was drawn there by the sounds of Ash and his friends battling.

"Of course that's not important. Actually, I had something more important to do, so I waited for you here."

"Wait for us?" A hint of wariness flashed in Ash's eyes.

The uncle, however, enthusiastically took out his business card and handed it to Xiaozhi and the others.

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself first. My name is Zivchi Mujin, and I am the president of Devon Manufacturing Company. You can just call me Zivchi."

"Speaking of which, my son is also a Pokémon Trainer and is currently traveling."

"Watching your battle yesterday, Ash, really reminded me of that unfilial brat."

"Derwin Manufacturing Company!"

"Zivoch!"

Who is it?

After hearing the white-haired man's self-introduction, Ash and Max immediately showed surprised expressions, while May remained clueless and confused.

"Oh my, sister! Our Hoenn Champion, Mr. Daigo, his surname is Zuvoki!"

"And Devon Manufacturing Company is also super famous; Pokémon Navigator is a product developed by their company."

Ash nodded in agreement, "Zufuchi, who is known as the richest man in Hoenn, is truly an extraordinary figure."

"You're really overestimating me."

At this moment, the uncle looked around and immediately hailed a black sedan.

"There are some things I'd like to show you, and I'd also like to invite you to visit my company. What do you all think?"

“Okay, I agree!” Xiao Sheng was the first to agree.

The Devon Corporation headquarters is a heavily guarded place, filled with many novel inventions that Xiao Sheng has always been very interested in.

Ash nodded in agreement after confirming that Uncle Hazvouchi meant no harm, since Devon Corporation was one of his entrepreneurial goals.

Now that he has the chance, he naturally wants to go and see it, and Ash is also very curious about what Zvuch wanted to see him about.

The group followed Zvoich to a magnificent building.

At this moment, a group of formally dressed men in black were already waiting outside the building's main entrance.

The leader of the group charged over aggressively after seeing Zvoich get out of the car.

"President, I'm begging you, can you please stop running around playing like this every day!"

"Do you know how much trouble you've caused everyone? The company has so many things waiting for you to handle, really!"

Although the person's expression was serious, their tone was full of sorrow.

His own boss and young master are both troublesome, forcing him, the head butler, to take on such a heavy responsibility. What kind of situation is this?

When faced with his secretary lecturing him, Zvoich simply smiled and showed no anger.

"Oh, Kuroda, I'm so sorry, hahaha, but I'm doing something important this time."

He quickly pulled over Satoshi and his group behind him and introduced them to Kuroda.

"This is the boy that Professor Birch mentioned before, the one who captured Rayquaza."

"What, is this the young man?"

Upon hearing that Ash was the one who had captured Rayquaza, Kuroda's attitude immediately became respectful, and he repeatedly instructed the bodyguards around him to welcome Ash and his companions inside.

After Kuroda left, Zvoich immediately broke into a relaxed smile.

"Oh dear, it's all thanks to bringing you guys along, otherwise Kuroda would have nagged me to death."

"Uncle, you're the president of the company now, do you still have to worry about being nagged by your secretary?"

Xiao Sheng asked, puzzled. He had always thought that the president was the most important person in his company.
