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

Chapter 330 He gave so much

"My father's name is Muramasa. He's a powerful trainer who has won multiple League Championships."

"It is said that he was once one of the Elite Four in the same year as Liu Bo, but he chose to step down as he got older and founded a Pokémon Dojo in Johto."

"It has developed rapidly over the years and is quite famous."

"And his son, Shingo, will be your opponent in your next match, Ash."

Suspended in mid-air, Kojiro, with a fawning smile, handed over the newly gathered information to Satoshi.

After taking a look, Xiao Zhi realized, "Oh, it's that effeminate purple-haired guy I saw on the announcement screen before."

The purple-haired man in the photo has a beautiful face, but his expression is very arrogant.

And his name is Shingo! Ash thought all purple-haired guys with cross-dressing potential would have "Yu" in their names.

Seeing that Ash didn't make any move, Jessie, who was also hanging nearby, quickly continued her introduction.

"I heard he's very good at data analysis and also owns a high-tech computer that has recorded data on all the powerful Pokémon and trainers over the past 5 years."

"My best-used ace Pokémon is Scizor, and its name is Bray."

"Looks like he's still a data stream trainer."

After closing the file, Ash had a general idea of ​​his next opponent.

Kojiro and his friends had gathered very comprehensive information, and Ash wanted to praise them even more.

"Boss, can you put us down now?"

"Keep it hanging there if you can't!"

"Ah~"

The trio immediately looked miserable; they had been hanging from the rafters by Ash for two hours.

"Shut up! Who told you to lie to me and say you were working hard, then all of you went to the warehouse to slack off!"

"It's a misunderstanding!" Kojiro frantically twisted his body and swung in front of Satoshi.

"I only found a quiet place to review my doctoral exam materials after I had painstakingly designed the new badge!"

"I've been working hard all along!" Kojiro said, feeling extremely aggrieved. He had even worked overtime for the company for free yesterday.

"Me too!"

"You two shut up! You're really just slacking off!"

"What?! We were clearly helping you study!"

Musashi and Meow Meow rammed into Kojiro together.

"Kojiro is so cunning, only wanting to get through the level by himself!"

"Don't even think about abandoning us, meow!"

Ash stared at the three lively characters wrestling and playing around above, and sighed helplessly.

Bang, bang, bang!

"Ah~" x3

"I don't believe any of the three of you!"

"That's right!"

"Let's hang them up together!"

"What is that?!"

Ash hung up the unfortunate blue orange juice along with it and then left.

Before leaving, Xiao Zhi specifically instructed his four masochistic henchmen to guard the place well and not to let them down until the time was less than three hours.

"Oh, I was too kind."

If it were before, Ash would have taken them out to feed the Finch long ago.

Thinking this, Xiao Zhi suddenly stopped walking on the forest path.

"Come out, I spotted you a long time ago."

A silence fell over the surroundings, and then a person slowly walked out from beside a large tree by the roadside, clapping.

"That's amazing, to be able to detect me so easily."

"You must be Ash Ketchum."

The other person wore a smug smile, their portable laptop fingers flying across the keyboard without stopping for a moment.

"Hmm, you are—a purple-haired sissy!"

"Who are you calling effeminate!" (十—皿—)

She clenched her fists angrily and rushed towards Ash, her delicate eyes fixed on him, the flames on her head almost materializing.

Because of his appearance, Shingo has often been confessed to by his fellow disciples at his own dojo.

As a result, he is now extremely sensitive to anything related to femininity, and he gets easily agitated.

It was Pikachu, being kind by nature, who acted as peacemaker and stopped Shingo from rushing forward in anger.

"Pikachu, Pikachu~" (Calm down, honey~)

With Shingo's petite frame, he definitely couldn't withstand a single Love Punch from Ash. I hope he doesn't die here.

The little mouse couldn't bear it; it was kind-hearted.

Shingo, of course, knew he couldn't possibly beat Satoshi, and upon getting close and seeing the terrifying muscles on Satoshi's body, he immediately came to his senses.

He only pretended for a while because of his pride, and soon he pretended to be stopped by Pikachu and silently retreated.

"Hmph, that's why I hate guys with all those muscles!"

He was so envious he almost cried; despite his relentless training, his body was still weak and limp.

"However, this Pikachu—"

Shingo immediately picked up his laptop, adjusted the camera, and shone it at Pikachu on the ground.

"Hmm, level 74, not bad."

"How come the opponents we beat in the official matches before were all Steelix, Sandslash, and Longhair?"

"Defeating these Pokémon with low natural talent doesn't show any strength at all. This Pikachu is no match for my Raichu."

"They're actually quite well-matched with their trainers; they'll all eventually fall to me!"

With a slight tilt of his fair chin, Xinwu's voice instantly rose three octaves.

And Ash's response was!

"Um, are you going to wear a maid outfit?" Xiaozhi suddenly felt that the other person would look pretty good in it.

"I won't wear it!"

"And why did they suddenly bring up maid outfits?!"

Shingo rushed over and threw the maid outfit that Ash had pulled out from somewhere onto the ground.

"I'm here to provoke you, so show me some respect!"

He should have immediately shown the courage expected of a noble samurai and challenged his opponent to a duel.

But Shingo glanced at Ash's muscular physique again and silently retreated once more.

"Damn you, wait until tomorrow's match, I'll show you!"

"I've finished investigating all your data. I've built the strongest and most perfect lineup. Victory will surely be mine again!" Shingo said confidently, hugging his computer tightly.

"This contains the Pokémon judgment system designed by some of the most outstanding Pokémon professors today, and it never makes a mistake."

"As your next opponent, I came here today to see what kind of trainer you really are."

"But I didn't expect it to be this level; it's really disappointing."

"It looks like I'll easily take the next victory."

After saying that, he immediately and swiftly made his escape, not forgetting to let out what he thought was an arrogant laugh as he left.

"What exactly is this guy doing here?"

"Pikachu." (Pikachu doesn't understand.)

But then Ash suddenly turned around and looked further behind the tree where Shingo had appeared.

"Muramasa-san, come out here. You've already been exposed."

"Hahaha, as expected of the person that old man Genzo always talks about, he's truly extraordinary."

A middle-aged man with grayish-purple hair and a hairstyle that inexplicably resembled Kojiro's, also threw off his simple robe and led a group of people out of the bushes in a rapid single file.

"There are so many people."

When Ash saw their outfits, his lips twitched instantly.

Why do these guys have such a prominent Shingo Kojima face pasted on everyone's clothes?

There were even several extra photos tied to Muramasa's head.

It inexplicably resembles the obsessive decorations of some celebrity worshippers.

"Uncle, no offense, but you're a respectable figure in the league. Is it really appropriate for you to be dressed like that?"

"And those pictures on your forehead look like they're of Shingo in drag when he was a kid."

So the purple-haired crossdresser actually did wear women's clothing.

"How embarrassing, no wonder he doesn't get along with you."

"What? How did you know—cough, no, young man, don't spout nonsense if you don't understand. The bond between father and son in my family is extremely strong!"

Seeing Xiaozhi's suspicious look, before Muramasa could even speak, the young man following closely behind immediately darted out like a lackey.

"How could ordinary people understand? Even in the face of the world's incomprehension, we bravely show everyone how adorable our young master is!"

"This is proof of the love and bond between the young master and us!"

"That's right, well said! As expected of my eldest disciple, Aijuku Toujiro!"

"What a terrible name! And you, the eldest disciple, are blushing over your son's cross-dressing photos!"

"Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

"My child is so adorable, it's only natural that everyone likes him."

"This is clearly not just ordinary liking!"

But the uncle wouldn't listen at all, and even pulled out several large posters of Shingo from his pocket, leading his disciples in a cheerleading routine.

"Shin-woo must usually really dislike walking with you guys."

"Ahem, that's not important!"

Uncle Muramasa quickly told his disciples to stop and turned his attention to Satoshi.

His sharp gaze swept over the area, and the seasoned veteran immediately sensed an unusually powerful pressure, prompting him to exclaim in amazement.

"That old man, Genzo, really has a good eye, and he's willing to spend a lot of money."

"He actually gave away his only granddaughter just to lure you into the Genzory school."

"Are you close to Grandpa Genzo?"

"They're old rivals."

"That old man and I were once fierce rivals vying for the title of martial arts champion in the City Alliance, but as he has grown older, I have shifted my focus to training disciples —"

"Our relationship has actually improved now, and we can barely be considered friends."

"He has praised you, his grandson-in-law, to me quite a bit."

Muramasa slowly walked up to Ash and felt the pressure emanating from Ash unconsciously even more clearly.

Impressive! No wonder he's a trainer recognized by Suicune. It's a pity he doesn't have a daughter, otherwise Muramasa might be tempted.

But then Muramasa suddenly bowed to Ash.

"I am truly sorry for my son's rudeness just now. It is my fault as a father for not disciplining him properly. Young man, I now formally apologize to you."

"It's nothing, I didn't take it to heart."

"But judging from Shingo's personality just now, I thought you would be the kind of parent who spoils their child."

Xiao Zhi was a little surprised to see how reasonable he was.

"Haha, I can't say you're wrong. As my son, whom I had late in life and finally had, I have indeed spoiled him a bit too much."

"So much so that Shingo has refused to train for a year now."

"He thought he could understand all the battles in the world by using a computer, which is far too naive for a qualified Pokémon trainer."

"Confusing data collection with combat, and blindly believing in the information they find —"

"They don't even watch their opponents' matches, they just collect the data and that's it, which is why they dare to say those kinds of things to a trainer like you."

When he heard Uncle Muramasa talking about this, Xiaozhi couldn't help but speak up.

"Uncle, is there something you want to tell me?"

"Yes, that's what I want to ask you to do—wake my son up!"

"One must always be on the battlefield when constantly on the battlefield. I hope that Shingo can recall the feelings I had when I first taught him how to fight."

"You don't need to ask me to; I will defeat him naturally."

"No, I hope you can defeat him without using a divine beast. With your strength, I believe you can definitely do it."

"If he loses to a legendary Pokémon, he will probably still use the excuse that there is no data in the computer."

"But if his opponent were to completely defeat him while using the same Pokémon, Shingo would realize his shortcomings and wake up to the truth."

"Uh, Uncle Muramasa, that sounds a bit—"

"It is indeed an unreasonable request, but I swear that I am absolutely sincere and have no ulterior motives whatsoever."

"Otherwise, I'm willing to commit seppuku—to kill myself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Muramasa immediately displayed the stubborn samurai style characteristic of the small notebook, throwing down a large dachi on the spot, and then Shigeza sat down and handed the kaishaku to Satoshi without saying a word.

Along with it came a list of Pokémon Shingo would be battling tomorrow, and Ash actually had all of those Pokémon.

"Well, it's not that I think you're lying, uncle."

After all, Ash sensed that the old man was indeed loyal, but Ash just found it troublesome.

He had his own set of plans for the Pokémon to be used in the battle, and was just about to refuse.

"Uncle————"

"Wait a minute!"

"Ah, what's that so dazzling!"

Suddenly, Tojiro roared and slid over from the side, quickly pulling out a heavy yellow object and a small stone slab from his pocket.

"This, this, this————"

Ash had never seen such a huge piece of gold before, and if he wasn't mistaken, the other thing looked like a stone tablet of Arceus!

"I have practiced martial arts for many years and have accumulated quite a bit of wealth. May I ask, Your Excellency, Mr. Zhi—"

At this moment, Muramasa immediately stood up and had Tojiro hand the things in his hand to Satoshi.

He had long heard that Ash was a very upright and kind trainer, and was recognized by the League as a future star, so much so that he was a little uneasy.

I don't know if offering gold is a bit too tacky, so to show his sincerity, he also included items related to legendary Pokémon that he had unexpectedly obtained during his travels when he was young.

But to everyone's surprise, Ash's eyes were already glowing golden at that moment.

"Pikachu!"

Without needing any further words, Pikachu immediately understood and, in a flash, snatched all the items from Toukirou's hands.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained: "Poisonous Tablets" (Slabs of Arceus: 6/19. It is said that if the destined person collects them all, they can meet an extraordinary being.)]

"Sigh, I never expected to see a father's overflowing love for his son here. I'm deeply moved."

"Alright, I'll make an exception and help you this time."

If legendary Pokémon are always featured, viewers will quickly lose interest, and once that threshold is reached, using such tactics to boost ratings will become less effective.

"Creating scarcity is the only way to maintain popularity in the long run!" Xiao Zhi convinced himself.

It's definitely not because of this dazzling gold nugget and stone slab.

I, Xiao Zhi, am a righteous person. How could I possibly be greedy for money and lustful!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered a new side quest, "Battle Against the Cute Little Crossdresser!": Defeat Shingo decisively and awaken the femininity within him!]

【奖励：联盟币+23333；攻击+2；速度+3；银色王冠+1；「真寻的汁」+1】

"Hmm, Makoto's juice?"

Ash tilted his head, thinking, "Another one like this?"

"Uncle, would you like Shingo to become your daughter?"

"What?! Is this even possible?!" X15

Why are you all so excited?!

The Muramasa Dojo has serious problems.
