Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 89: The incident is over, let's go home together.

With a melodious chirp, and as the flames burned out, the phantom of the firebird summoned by Candira with her feathers also extinguished and dissipated.

The mist that shrouded the eternal forest gradually dissipated as the antimatter disappeared, and moonlight shone down, once again painting a dazzling starry night sky before everyone's eyes.

Just at the scene...

In the devastated forest, people and Pokémon lay scattered everywhere—some were being manipulated by Dusknoir, some were being beaten with a stick by Yuu, and some were being blasted by Ursaring…

"That's terrible. Luckily, I'm not Officer Jenny, or I'd definitely have a headache."

Candira shook his head, only to suddenly appear then; Yalo had disappeared somewhere.

"Oh no!"

She quickly left and searched the surrounding area...

On the other side, as the fog dissipated, Latias finally breathed a sigh of relief. She and Zoroa had been staying with Lillie to help search for people, and only knew that a battle had taken place in the distance, but nothing else.

"Are we safe now?"

Lillie asked softly, though she hadn't found a single one of her companions... After confirming that the crisis was over, she looked at Latias and the others and said softly, "Thank you for staying with me all this time."

"Hmm~"

Latias nodded slightly, but just then, a huge mouth suddenly appeared and bit its body, followed by the wounded Yaro appearing beside it.

"Although the operation to collect antimatter failed, as long as we bring you back..."

Alo didn't want to go back and get scolded like that. Seeing Latias trying to struggle to get out of Maw of Venus's mouth, he quickly pulled out a small knife, slashed it through the air, and held it against Lillie's snow-white neck.

"Behave yourself, and then come with me, or this timid girl might... Ah!!!"

Before he could finish speaking, the girl he called timid suddenly kicked him in the groin, letting out a painful scream before collapsing to the ground.

"You mustn't...you mustn't hurt them!"

Despite her fear, Lillie protected Latias with unwavering eyes. She didn't know what was going on, but she knew that the guy in front of her was definitely a bad person!

"Waaah..."

Latias stared blankly, then smiled and flung Maw of Basilisk away. Seeing Yalo trying to get up, Zoroah jumped up and swung his claw down, leaving a scratch on the other's face without mercy.

Hearing the shouts, Candira rushed over. When she saw Alo lying in front of Lillie, she couldn't help but smile and praise him, because she had followed these students before and knew that this child was very timid.

"Little sister, you did a great job! He's a member of Team Rocket, and you actually beat him."

"what?"

Lillie was somewhat dazed, her face filled with astonishment and bewilderment. She then looked at Alo, who was writhing on the ground in pain, seemingly unable to believe it.

"I defeated... Team Rocket executives?"

She, who has always been afraid of Pokémon, actually managed to defeat such a vicious villain...

……

Back at the ravaged battlefield where only the two of them remained, He Yuexiong deactivated his crystallization and, after taking Pengpeng off his shoulder, looked at Xiaozhao.

Mingyou also looked over there and, seeing Xiaozhao's somewhat confused and heavy expression, asked with concern, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"without……"

Xiao Zhao shook his head, then smiled and said, "Let's go to the Night Demon and release all the captured souls."

"Um."

The two of them, along with Ponpo and the others, arrived at the Night Demon's location, only to discover that the demon had not completely lost consciousness, but was simply unable to move.

"That's a really thick health bar... Could it also do sit-ups like those manga characters?"

"It can't be that outrageous, can it...?"

Xiao Zhao responded instinctively, then looked at the Night Demon and asked, "By the way, where did you get all this antimatter? This is the power of a mythical Pokémon, it shouldn't be possible..."

"Jie..."

The Night Demon spoke faintly.

It obtained the antimatter by chance in a cave in the hidden fourth lake in the Xicui region. Being from the spirit world, it also knew very well who this ability came from.

Also originating from the spirit world, antimatter did not have any negative impact on it; on the contrary, it merged into its body and enhanced its strength. However, it could not use it directly and could only passively influence its surroundings.

Because he gained a tiny bit of Giratina's power, he developed the idea of ​​becoming a leader. However, since he couldn't achieve this in the Spirit World, he chose Kitakami Township, a place with ghost legends, and forced those Pokémon to become his subordinates.

"Dreams should not be built on the oppression of others... The starting point is wrong."

Xiao Zhao shook his head, watching as the Night Demon finally couldn't hold on any longer and lost consciousness. Then, many blue orbs of light shot out from the Demon's open belly, flying in all directions with trailing effects.

This is the soul, but ordinary people cannot see it. Mingyou's mental strength is relatively strong now, so he can barely see some phantoms flying overhead.

The souls automatically flew back into their seemingly dead bodies. After a short while, these people slowly opened their eyes and saw Musashi and Kojiro awaken. Meow Meow shouted excitedly with tears in her eyes.

"Resurrect the Hot Cat!"

"Solas!"

Not far away, Meiyue, who was leaning against a tree, also slowly opened her eyes weakly. Her eyes were somewhat confused as she looked around.

"How did I get here...?"

Meanwhile, in a cold storage warehouse in the town of Emerald Green, William Joe, the first victim, was suddenly awakened by the cold and began banging on the freezer...

As people began to wake up, Mingyou scratched his head, recalling what he had done. He sighed softly and said, "I'd better take Heyue Bear and Ponpon and leave first."

"Who told you to keep causing trouble..."

Xiao Zhao knew what he was worried about, but looking at the wound on his chest, she still asked with concern, "Is the injury serious?"

"It's alright, little one..."

"How can you say you're fine? Let's go back together later, and I'll bandage you up."

"what?"

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing..."

Mingyou shook her head. Just then, Candira, who had captured Yalo, arrived with Lillie and the others. Zoroya leaped into Xiaozhao's arms, finally finding the person.

"Are you alright?"

"Woo~"

Zoroa affectionately nuzzled Xiao Zhao's face. Mingyou smiled calmly, looked at Latias who was running over, and said, "Looks like you guys have done something big too. Thanks for your hard work~"

"Waaah~"

Just praise me!

Latias liked being praised, and then she looked at Ponpo. She was very happy to learn that Ponpo had gotten her mask back, and hugged Ponpo tightly.

Mingyou smiled and patted their heads, then looked at Lillie and said, "We've been looking for them for a long time. Thank you for helping us find them."

"Actually, they're the ones who saved me..."

Lillie explained, and upon discovering Mizuki was nearby, she immediately ran towards her. Candira, noticing everyone was awake, smiled and said, "Leave this to me. You guys staying here with those two Pokémon will probably cause some trouble, so I'll handle it!"

Thank you.

"It's alright, I was just about to arrest all these Team Rocket members anyway."

"!!!"

The cat, who was not far away, heard about this and its fur stood on end in fright. Did it think it could escape? Fortunately, Mingyou glanced at them and said, "Come with us and leave. This is what we promised before."

"Thank you, meow!"

"Protecting the Rockets?"

Candira was curious but didn't press the matter. Mingyou, however, looked at her and said, "Miss Candira, I have a request..."

Before he could finish speaking, Candila smiled and shook her head: "You should leave first. We can arrange a time to talk about the rest tomorrow."

"Understood, then let's go to the manor at the confluence of the riverbanks tomorrow at noon."

"no problem!"
