Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 337 White Dragon's Delusional Attempt to Control Mingyou and Trick Team Rocket into Doing Work (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The powerful blow that fell from the sky was so terrifying that even Mingyou could clearly feel it.

This is probably the aura of the powerful being that Xiaoyou mentioned. However, the other party was just passing by and was not attacked at the time. But now, without a doubt, they are being treated as enemies and targeted for attack.

"They're ambushing us from the sky! Team Plasma... better get out of the way!"

Mingyou didn't have time to complain. He had a huge grudge against Team Plasma, and they wouldn't let him off the hook. If he were hit by Kyurem's attack, becoming an ice sculpture would be the best outcome.

But a chill swept in, and the low temperature made Milton feel unwell. Its joints began to stiffen. It had never experienced such cold before, and the DNA of the Motolizard within it was filled with fear.

"Move! Why aren't you moving!"

Mingyou wanted to control Milerton to leave, but then he finally realized that Milerton was afraid of the cold. So he took out the synchronizer from his backpack and let himself endure the cold so that they could leave together.

It's just that time...

"You still have to rely on me, remember to give me a raise!"

The Crowned King, sitting in the back, gently shook its head and then raised its arm. Having lived in the icy wilderness of the Crown Snowfield for thousands of years, it was no longer afraid of the cold, and this level of attack had no effect on it whatsoever!

Before it could bloom and release its power, a ball of blue flame instantly burst forth in Mingyou's right hand, using its high temperature to block the falling beam of ice, while also bringing warmth to Milton's body.

"Miller!"

Milton finally recovered and, the instant the flames disappeared, swiftly carried Mingyou and the others out of the beam's attack range.

The beam of light shone directly onto the sea surface, yet the extremely low temperature failed to freeze the seawater in the slightest. This made Mingyou, who was now out of the attack range, suddenly notice...

Having temporarily left this sea area, Mingyou breathed a slight sigh of relief. He then looked at his right hand, remained silent for a moment, and thanked Reshiram, even though he knew the other party's intention in helping him.

"Lai Ao!"

Reshiram's voice echoed in his mind. This time, he could directly understand what the other party meant. And the Light Stone was now in his backpack. As long as he said "yes," Reshiram would immediately fight for him.

But Mingyou had no such intention. Rashiram's purpose was not simple, and he did not want to get caught up in this kind of "kidnapping" of his duties.

Furthermore, why doesn't Reshiram appear from the Light Stone on its own? Based on N's experience of summoning Zekrom from the Dark Stone, it's likely that both the Black and White Dragons must be summoned to appear; this is a mechanism.

He ignored the other person and looked up, but this disregard made Reshiram very unhappy. He kept refusing him. Didn't he want the power to change the world?

"Lai Ao!"

Damn it... I refuse to believe I can't get you!

I'm sticking with you!

Reshiram's confidence as a legendary Pokémon vanished completely in front of Naruto.

"..."

Mingyou took out his binoculars and continued to observe the sky. The haze that had been pierced by the beam attack had now returned to normal. The fact that they could stay in the sky for so long probably meant that the Plasma Team still had destroyers.

However, things are indeed a bit tricky now. I didn't expect Milton to be afraid of the cold. Facing Kyurem, the strongest dragon on the surface, will probably be very difficult.

Can we win?

I'm afraid we can't win...

"Miller!"

Milton revealed a cold look. Having lived with its companions for so long, it had long since developed a lot of human touch and its own personality, but it did not accept the loss it had just suffered.

"Alright, alright, let's think of a way. They outnumber us and have such powerful weapons, so a direct breakthrough is obviously not possible."

The Crowned King was quite rational. After analyzing the situation, it concluded that there was no possibility of success. Moreover, it guessed that the location of the underwater ruins was probably in the same area of ​​the sea, but it was just impossible to see it.

Mingyou shared the same thought: although they were eager to save Meloeta, they couldn't let their emotions cloud their judgment, and fighting at sea would be disadvantageous.

Just as he was continuing to think about how to proceed, his gaze suddenly fell upon the surface of the sea, where there was a "savage bass" that looked like it had died and surfaced. It was the submarine that Milton had just mentioned.

"Did they escape during Kyurem's attack? But it seems that's not going to work..."

Mingyou murmured softly, naturally she wouldn't stand by and watch someone die, and decided to rescue the people in the submarine and then go back to discuss with Xiaozhao what to do.

"Let's go take a look."

"Miller..."

Although Millerton was in a bad mood, he was still happy to follow Mingyou's orders. All those sandwiches weren't for nothing; now they had a good relationship.

Upon reaching the bottom and clearly seeing the dilapidated structure of the submarine, Mingyou couldn't help but remark, "Was this thing salvaged from a junkyard?"

"Taste can only be described as tragic."

The Crowned King also shook his head slightly.

Suddenly, the submarine's exit was opened, and three figures emerged from it. Ignoring the rain, they were panting heavily, clearly having been trapped at sea for too long and suffering from oxygen deprivation.

Seeing that it was the same trio again, Mingyou was slightly taken aback, then revealed a smile of interest, jumped off Millerton onto the submarine, and at the same time, the electromagnetic barrier that blocked the rain also covered the area.

Hearing the noise, Kojiro instinctively turned around, but upon seeing who it was, he immediately let out a terrified scream.

"ah!!!"

"What... Meow!!!"

Hearing Kojiro and Meow Meow scream in terror, Musashi turned around and froze, speechless.

Seeing that the Team Rocket trio was startled by her, Mingyou greeted them with a smile, "Haven't seen you for two days. Weren't you flying a flying robot before? How come you've fallen on hard times and are now flying this crappy submarine?"

The Crowned King added, "Everyone else is driving the Eurocargo submarine, but you guys are driving the crappy Savage Bass submarine. If you don't get into trouble, who will?"

"That makes sense..."

The Rockets trio seemed to understand something, nodded slightly, and then finally reacted, hugging each other and shouting, "Boss, let us go! We weren't planning on catching Ponpo today!"

"Go? Sure."

Mingyou crossed her arms, raised an eyebrow, and continued, "I'll ask you some questions, and after you answer them, I'll let you leave. Hmm... you don't have the right to refuse. Honestly explain why you came here."

"this……"

Hearing this question, the Rockets trio were caught in a dilemma. They couldn't very well say that they wanted to continue monitoring the villa to confirm whether the figure playing in the sand yesterday was Meloetta, but the submarine's radar malfunctioned, and they lost their way due to the heavy rain and were swept here by the ocean current.

If I were to say this out loud, I'd definitely be caught; I'd be thrown into the sea to be fed to the fish...

Fortunately, Kojiro quickly came up with a clever idea, clapped his hands, and replied, "We're fishing!"

"..."

Musashi and Meow Meow looked at him like he was an idiot. Even an idiot wouldn't believe such an answer!

But Mingyou believed her and nodded gently: "Don't go fishing in such heavy rain. If you really can't make ends meet, you can come to me and I can introduce you to a job. We can let bygones be bygones about what happened the day before yesterday. After all, this is what you do, so I can understand."

"Boss!"

Hearing him say these heartfelt words, the Team Rocket trio were deeply moved. In their minds, Naruto had always seemed annoying, but in reality, he was a very gentle and kind person.

Mingyou just smiled and continued, "I was just chasing after a thief when I saw the frozen submarine. I thought saving people was the priority, but I didn't expect it to be you guys inside."

"Chasing a thief in this heavy rain?"

"yes……"

Mingyou shook her head, looked up helplessly, and continued, "It's the white gem I won in the Youth Cup. Today, the Plasma Team sneaked into my room and stole it. After I found out, I chased after them all the way here, and I heard them shouting that the underwater ruins are right here..."

"!!!"

Hearing him say this, seemingly casually, the Team Rocket trio exchanged bewildered glances. The Bright Stone had been stolen by Team Plasma? And the underwater ruins were right here?

Just as they were in shock, Mingyou sighed softly, "It's a pity that I let them escape in order to save you. They flew into the sky and I couldn't catch up. There's probably some kind of aerial base up there... Now I can only go back to Officer Jenny for help."

When he said this, neither his expression nor his actions seemed to be acting at all. He then continued, "But let's get you to Ripple Town first. This submarine is definitely not going to work."

"No need, no need! Our Rockets' core technology is the best in the world. Even if all that's left is a fish skeleton, we can still drive it back!"

The Rockets trio quickly refused, disregarding any suspicion they might have. Having suddenly received such important information, they knew they had to report it to their leader, Giovanni.

The location of the underwater ruins has been found. What's the point of Meloetta? We can just come here. Besides, Team Plasma dares to steal Team Rocket's Bright Stone. They have no idea who's in charge!

Seeing that they didn't want to follow her, Mingyou didn't make things difficult for them. While complaining, she pretended to be going to call the police and quickly rode away on Milerton.

At this point, the Queen of the Rachel finally spoke up, who had remained silent the whole time: "As expected of you, for a moment I don't know who the fool is."

"Ha ha."

Mingyou's lips curled into a slight smile. She had sent out a lot of important information, some true and some false.

Although encountering them was purely accidental, now that's an opportunity, isn't it? The Rockets must be eager to take advantage of this, and all the grudges between the two sides can be wiped clean at once!

"Let's go back first!"
