Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 317 The Arrival of the Crane Crown King, Ride Your Milton (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Faced with Mingyou's sudden threat, the Rocket Team trio was really at a loss, but there was no solution in the short term. Fortunately, they had cooperated with him before and even worked for him, so they had some understanding of his character.

"Um... Boss."

Musashi clasped his hands together, forcing a smile, and continued, "Is there any business you need our help with? I heard your business is booming these days, so you probably don't need us help out selling fruit here anymore, right?"

The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense. Mingyou raised her eyes slightly and replied with a smile, "Haha, don't be too nervous. I just happened to run into you guys here and came over to say hello. After all, you guys used to help me with work."

"Oh, I see..."

"Yes, that's right. I'm participating in a competition in Kagome Town these few days. If you have any financial difficulties, you can come and work for me anytime."

After saying this, Mingyou pretended nothing had happened and left. Only when they saw him walk into the other side of the team and no longer pay attention to this side did the Team Rocket trio finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"We were so scared! He saw through our carefully crafted disguise at a glance. Luckily, we knew each other before, so he didn't make things too difficult for us."

"Yes, the boss is a really nice guy. He gave us the stall and we made quite a bit of money."

"Cute Ponpo is over there too!"

The Rockets' trio continued their conversation, but ultimately decided against pursuing the idea further...

Xiao Zhao glanced at them, then looked at Ming You and asked softly, "Who are those people?"

"The Rockets."

"Huh? That's just..."

"It's alright, I know them quite well, and their target isn't me. They're probably after something in this museum, right?"

As he spoke, Mingyou's gaze swept into the interior of the museum. He had just gone there to test the waters. The group hadn't even bothered to catch Pikachu and had come to the museum instead. They must have some kind of plan, such as stealing artifacts to resell.

It's just that there's a possibility.

After hearing what he said, Xiao Zhao didn't pay any more attention, but Ming You did pay a little more attention...

A moment later, we entered the museum.

Xiao Zhao was quite interested in the cultural relics here and planned to take a closer look at them.

So Mingyou accompanied the other party while searching for the location of the Bright Stone's booth. Just then, a burning sensation suddenly came from her right hand.

He raised his right hand, frowned slightly, and looked at the white dragon mark above. Xiao Zhao noticed this, turned to look at him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"It's a little hot... Hmm, the Light Stone should be in that direction."

Mingyou pointed his right hand in a certain direction of the museum. Perhaps it was a connection with the Light Stone, but at this moment he was hesitant to approach it, worried that the same unexpected situation as last time might happen again.

Xiao Zhao could tell from his expression what he was worried about, so she reached out and took his right hand, saying, "Don't worry, we'll go together."

"Um!"

Following their senses, the two arrived at the exhibition area in the museum where photography was prohibited. There, many important cultural relics were displayed, and in one of the glass display cases, a white jewel shone brightly under the soft light of fiber optic lamps.

"Mmm~"

Ponpo finally saw the Light Stone with her own eyes.

However, at this moment, Zhu Lan and Adeke were talking quietly in front of the Bright Stone's display stand, and the surrounding tourists did not dare to approach them casually.

"It seems inconvenient to get close. It would be too conspicuous to greet Miss Zhulan."

Xiao Zhao shook her head slightly, and just as she was about to continue saying something, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the Team Rocket trio in the crowd of tourists, their eyes fixed on the Luminous Stone display.

She vaguely guessed something, gently nudged Mingyou, and whispered, "Be more careful, it seems you have competitors off the field too."

"I saw it."

Mingyou turned his gaze away from the Team Rocket trio and continued looking at the Bright Stone. The burning sensation in his right hand intensified at this moment. In a daze, he vaguely saw a white dragon phantom watching him from the Bright Stone's display stand.

The two stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity until Xiao Zhao tugged at his sleeve, bringing Mingyou back to his senses. When he looked back at the Bright Stone, the white dragon phantom had vanished.

"Interesting... Let's go."

Mingyou felt there was no need to go for the time being, but Xiaozhao next to her was slightly taken aback: "You're leaving already? I bought a ticket but haven't even had a proper look at it yet."

"Um... then let's wander around a bit more."

"Hmm~ Let's go over there."

The two stayed at the museum until noon before leaving, but Cynthia and the others did not leave. They continued to study the Bright Stone. The Team Rocket trio probably couldn't find any opportunity to attack, and they also quietly left the museum at some point.

Before going to lunch, the two went to the Pokémon Center to prepare the Pokémon transfer device to receive the Pokémon being transferred.

He left all of Kirlia's Poké Balls at home. As long as Calyrex puts them back into their Poké Balls, they can be sent to him via the teleportation device at the Greentown Pokémon Center.

Last time, we wanted them to send Hera over, but Milton intercepted it, and we forgot about it. Otherwise, with Hera there, the Pokémon controller incident wouldn't have turned out so messy.

After Miss Joey helped set up the equipment and connect it to the computer, Mingyou quietly began to wait. Xiaozhao asked curiously, "Will they all come over? It feels so much livelier now."

"I think so... I didn't ask."

As they spoke, the teleportation began. Accompanied by the light generated during the teleportation, five red and white Poké Balls and one pure red Poké Ball with a highlight instantly appeared on the teleportation device.

"Um?"

Mingyou was slightly taken aback. Looking at the last red Poké Ball, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"How did I get an extra valuable Poké Ball? Did someone secretly send me a Pokémon?"

"what?"

Nurse Joy on the other end was slightly taken aback. She checked the situation on her computer and thought that the teleportation had gone wrong and sent the Pokémon that was sent elsewhere to her.

After checking, she gently shook her head and replied, "There was indeed a valuable Poké Ball that was transported from Kitakami Township along with these Poké Balls; there was no error."

"ha?"

Now it was Naruto's turn to be confused. He had caught all his Pokémon using Poké Balls, so how could he possibly have other Poké Balls?

Xiao Zhao, standing to the side, didn't think that Mingyou was the kind of irresponsible person who couldn't remember how many Pokémon he had after having too many, so there must be some mistake, right?

Just as they were all puzzled, a red light suddenly flashed, accompanied by the falling of transparent feathers. Latias, which they hadn't seen for a long time, transformed into a human cub and jumped out of the Poké Ball. It then hugged Mingyou and jumped into its arms.

"Waaah~"

"Wow!"

Miss Joy was startled by what she saw. A little girl popped out of the Poké Ball? She must have been too tired these past few days. She should probably leave work early today.

Seeing Latias appear, and basically confirming that there was nothing wrong with the Poké Balls, Naruto took them all and went outside...

Once outside, Latias finally left Mingyou's embrace, only to be hugged by Xiaozhao instead.

"Long time no see~"

"Waaah~"

"Melo~"

Meloetta also appeared and greeted Latias. Although it was their first meeting, girls always find it easy to get along.

"Let's get along well, but let's go to the park over there first and meet everyone."

Arriving at the nearby park, Milton and the others were resting there until Mingyou came over, at which point they finally regained their energy.

"Come out, everyone!"

In the park, Mingyou threw out all the Poké Balls, including the valuable one whose meaning was unclear. A red light flashed, and a huge figure appeared with the flash, lying on the ground, its belly rising and falling.

"Kirby~"

"Melo!"

What a huge bed!

Meloetta lay down directly on it. Snorlax's belly was Latias's bed, but she didn't mind being slept on by other Pokémon.

Smoothie also made a rare appearance, still as mischievous as ever, immediately using matcha to scribble on the face of a sleeping Snorlax as soon as she appeared.

Kirlia emerged from the Poké Ball, immediately ran forward to hug Mingyou, and waved to Xiaozhao. Heyue didn't react as strongly as the others, but she missed them quite a bit after not seeing them for so long.

"Everyone's here, so..."

Just as Mingyou was about to introduce Snivy and Meloetta to everyone, she suddenly realized that something seemed wrong again. Where were the Pokémon in the valuable ball? She thought she had indeed seen five flashes of red light just now.

"Look over there!"

"Um?"

Hearing Xiao Zhao's voice, Mingyou turned to look and saw that not far away, next to Millerton, who was teasing Meilutan and preventing it from eating him, there was now a large turnip, which was constantly looking at the other party.

The Crowned King was completely oblivious to Mingyou's gaze, still sizing up Milton. He nodded with great satisfaction and said, "What era are we living in? Riding horses is so outdated. We should be riding cool motorcycles like this across the snowfield. Good brother, let me ride one."

"Miller?"

Milton looked up, letting Melotan press against him, curiously examining the turnip before him. The Crane Queen, her gaze stern, stared back at him with an air of authority, hands clasped behind her back, and continued, "Let us become one, and there will be no one left in the world to contend with us!"

"Miller?"

"Turnips!!!"

Mingyou's voice came instantly. He never expected that the precious ball contained a Calycerin. "Is this red Calycerin ball legal?"

Hearing the shout, the Calyrex reached out its hand, gesturing for Mingyou to be quiet: "Don't rush, it's thinking!"

"..."

The Crowned King continued to gaze at Milton, preaching as if he wanted to take him as his mount.

Just as the curious Milton finally stood up, seemingly persuaded by his words, the Crane King was about to rejoice when a sharp pain suddenly shot through his head.

Millerton bit its head...

Cabbage, delicious!

The Crowned Queen's eyes widened, as if she had lost her soul, and she collapsed...
