Pokémon, Ash is going to become a perfect man from now on.

Since the position of Island King was created, Tapu Fini has never encountered a human who fits the template as perfectly as Ash, and is impeccable in every aspect.

"Understood, then it's decided!" Ash nodded slightly to Tapu Fini. "From this day forward, I will become your priest and the island king who protects Poni Island!"

To be honest, it was quite hasty and unbelievable that he and Tapu Fizz had only just met and suddenly formed this relationship.

However, the guardian deities of Alola are all eccentric and, to put it bluntly, passionate people, so it's not surprising that they would do such things.

Tapu Koko also gave Ash a Shining Stone and an Electric Z-Move as soon as they met.

"Great! Let's go hold the ceremony now!" Tapu Fini was overjoyed when Ash agreed and immediately grabbed him to run towards the Ruins of the Other Shore.

"Hey, there are still people waiting at the Sun Wheel Altar," Ash reminded them, half-laughing and half-crying.

Tapu Fini is so afraid of running away!

"Then let's go there quickly..." Tapu Fizz was clearly a little impatient.

It is now focused solely on the upcoming succession ceremony and has no interest in the affairs of other humans.

"Let's go, it'll be faster if I take you." Ash couldn't help but chuckle. He placed his hand on Tapu Fini's shell and used Teleport to take the other along, rushing directly back to the Sun Wheel Altar from the sea.

"Ash, Tapu Fini, you're back!" "How are you, Guardian? Are you alright?"

As soon as the two figures appeared, Jasmine and Hapu rushed over anxiously, especially Hapu, who was constantly worried about Tapu Fini's condition.

In contrast, Tapu Fini completely ignored Ash's pleas and urged him to hurry up before heading off to the Ruins of the Other Shore to make preparations.

"Why...did it leave?" Hapu asked, somewhat disappointed.

"The problem is basically solved. There are still some affected Pokémon in the surrounding waters, but Tapu Fini will handle that," Ash briefly explained. "Also, please don't get excited about what I'm about to say..."

"At the invitation of Tapu Fini, I will soon assume the position of King of Bonney Island!"

"What did you say?!" *2

Chapter 413 Before the Coronation, Developments from All Sides

Shocked, shocked, incredulous...

In just a few seconds, Jasmine and Hapuu's expressions changed so dramatically that it was almost like a Sichuan opera face-changing act.

This is too sudden!

Ash and Tapu Fini had only known each other for a day... no, to be precise, just one morning, and he suddenly became the king of the island. It's really amazing no matter how you look at it.

"That's the situation. If you're interested, you can go to the Other Shore Ruins to observe the ceremony later."

As he was talking, Xiao Zhi suddenly remembered that he should tell the other people the good news so that they could also join in the fun.

"Why..." Happu asked Ash in disbelief, "Why would Tapu Fini choose an outsider like you to succeed as the King of the Island?!"

“Hapoo, I’m sorry…” Ash said with his head down, “This position should probably be yours… I actually think so too, but Tapu Fini still chose me.”

"That's why I want to know why? They've been refusing to confirm the candidate all along, so why did they suddenly..." Hapuu choked up, seemingly unable to speak.

She was indeed wronged. From a very early time, she had insisted on praying at the ruins on the other side every day, hoping to inherit her grandfather's will and become the new island queen.

As a result, she didn't even get a candidate certification before Xiaozhi beat her to it.

"If that's what you're asking, I can only say... even if I go all out, the Guardian Angel is no match for me!" Ash didn't want to show off, but he needed to help Happou face reality.

If things continue like this, she won't even reach the level of the original work.

"Hmph, do you think I'd believe that kind of bragging?" Hapuu scoffed.

Defeating the guardian deity was, in her view, impossible.

"You can investigate it yourself," Ash said calmly. "And let me correct you... Tapu Fini wasn't chosen, it was invited to be the king of the island!"

A single word makes all the difference in attitude.

“How is this possible…” Hapuu was completely stunned.

She was indeed hardworking and devout enough, and the words she feared most were "you are not qualified".

While she waited anxiously for the Guardian Spirit's approval, Ash was eagerly invited by the Guardian Spirit—that's the difference between them.

Ash's journey has progressed to the point where his normal strength has reached the peak of the Elite Four level. He's just one step away from breaking through, and he'll have no problem becoming the king of an island.

He has also gained the approval of more than one legend, possesses many unique powers, and has personally participated in saving the world…

This version of Ash is unlike the original Ash, who traveled to numerous regions and resolved world crises multiple times, yet remained unknown and lived like a nobody, even being ridiculed by newcomers in new regions.

All the experiences we go through will accumulate into knowledge, propelling Xiaozhi to higher levels.

To put it bluntly, his arrival in Alora is like a dimensional reduction attack.

"Hapoo, I know you're upset, but I still have to ask... what is it that you're after?" Ash asked seriously. "If it's just for fame or to carry on your grandfather's legacy, you can certainly leave in a huff now."

"But if you are a part of Pony Island, even without the title of King of the Island, and are willing to contribute to protecting this island, I hope you can participate in the entire ceremony!"

“I…” Hapwu was caught in a huge dilemma, and finally nodded silently.

"Xiao Zhi, congratulations!" Jasmine, having regained her senses, didn't forget to offer her blessings.

She accepted it quickly and also found it quite strange.

In the blink of an eye, Ash became the guardian of the island.

"Let's hurry over to the ruins on the other side; we still need to make some preparations there."

After offering some words of comfort to Happu, Ash sent messages to his scattered companions and then decided to leave the Sun Wheel Altar.

When he reached the canyon, he found his giant steel snake lazily coiled in the middle of the canyon, feasting on a large pile of dark rocks in front of it.

"A magnet?" Ash could tell that this was a rock that Steelix had dug out of the canyon. It contained a strong magnet and was also covered with a lot of metal fragments, some of which even reflected the sunlight.

"If you find this helpful, stay here and keep eating." Ash smiled and patted Steelix's head. "I'll come back for you when I'm done with this."

"Click~"

The Steelix obediently shook its head, and Ash noticed that as it moved, several magnets on the ground seemed to move slightly.

These magnets might be the key to Steelix's increased strength. Ash can't figure it out yet, so he'll let it eat them first.

Anyway, Steelix can eat anything from dirt to rocks and metal, so it definitely won't get sick.

Ash left Steelix in the canyon for the time being and rushed to the Ruins of the Other Shore to make preparations... At the same time, in the reception room of the Kangdai Hotel, Blue also happened to see a message on her phone.

She glanced at the blonde woman sitting opposite Moen, a playful smile appearing on her face.

“Mrs. Rosamune, we don’t have time to keep you company while you catch up with Mr. Moen.” She waved her phone and said to the still-charming lady, “We just received the latest news that I have to take my companions to Pony Island.”

"What does this mean?" The blonde woman frowned in displeasure. "It's one thing if he doesn't come back, but you're planning to leave too?"

Of course, she was actually hoping that Xiao Lan would get away quickly so she could take Mo En home...

But this is just wishful thinking. Before Xiaozhi comes back, none of her family members can leave!

"Sorry, we have to leave," Xiao Lan explained nonchalantly. "My boyfriend is about to become the King of Pony Island, and he's urging us to go for the ceremony."

"What did you say?" Lusamine looked incredulous.

Moen, who was standing next to her, was completely shocked!

He had participated in great trials before, so of course he knew what it meant to be the king of the islands!

How did Ash suddenly take over?!

"That's the situation. The others have already headed over there, and we can't delay any longer. We'll take our leave now." Xiao Lan waved with a smile and turned to leave without looking back.

She now truly felt that her man had done an absolutely fantastic job in this matter!

They originally represented Kanto, a power outside of Alola, but now they have suddenly become the leaders of the homeland, something Lusamine never expected!

And that's exactly what happened. Ash's move completely disrupted Lusamine's entire plan, and all those arguments and tactics used against outsiders are now useless!

Meanwhile, on various islands, others were also taking action.

Ash's notification was very extensive this time. In addition to the three girls, Blue, Bea, who was training alone, Brock and Liz, who were inseparable, and Acerola and Mertan, who were special guests, had all set off.

This also includes a highly respected old man on Melemele Island, who also set off quickly after receiving the news!

The guardian deity has appointed someone from another region as the king of the island—this is definitely a major event!

...

"Very good... If it's a coronation ceremony, it probably won't be over quickly, right?"

Among the Aether Foundation delegation, a guy who looked like a Pokémon quietly left the Kangdai Hotel and took a speedboat to Ula Ula Island.

However, he had no idea what he would encounter over there…

Chapter 414 Coronation, and the Certain Test!

On the other side of the ruins, Ash's friends and family, along with the other island kings, all waited quietly inside the ruins, ready to witness this sudden coronation ceremony.

At this moment, Ash, wearing a feathered crown and a light blue robe embroidered with golden wave patterns, looked extremely dignified.

Compared to the real Aquaman, he might only lack a trident.

He maintained a solemn posture, standing in the center of the altar within the ruins…

That's right, it's a station.
