Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

His movements were as natural as if he were inspecting an interesting new toy.

Gastly: "???"

In her large, pure white eyes, the two small black pupils trembled violently, then suddenly shrank into two points of shock.

Then the entire ball tilted backward and then "whooshed" away a great distance, almost disappearing back into the thick fog.

What do you mean? What do you mean?!

Why did you just start using your hands?

When has this Ghost-type Pokémon ever suffered such humiliation?

If word gets out, how will Gastly survive around Lavender Town?

We must teach this arrogant brat a lesson!

Let him see what true "Ghost-type shock" really is!

81. A desperately hungry superpowered individual!

After a while.

Gastly, which had originally been aggressive and said it would "teach Ash a lesson".

At this moment, its long, red tongue is curling up and down, intently licking a plump tree fruit.

His face was filled with ecstasy.

This fruit... *slurp*

Really... *slurp*

So delicious and spicy... Slurp~

The glistening juice dripped down its tongue, only to be quickly swept back up, not wanting to waste a single drop.

"How is it? Is the taste alright?"

While talking, Xiaozhi also distributed a few to the others.

"Haaah~"

Gastly nodded.

Row!

Taihang Spicy!

It had never tasted such delicious and juicy fruit!

Xiao Zhi secretly praised him.

No wonder it's something Brother Du treasured.

This is much more effective than wild fruits you pick from the roadside!

"Pikachu?"

Pikachu curiously approached and, mimicking Ash, touched Gastly's misty body.

"Pickup!"

Experiencing this wonderful feel, its eyes lit up immediately.

Normally, if a Pokémon were to touch it so rashly, Gastly would definitely scare it away.

But at this moment, it only glanced at Pikachu before immersing itself in the deliciousness of the berry, showing no sign of resistance.

Clearly, its principles have been won over by the special supply from the Heavenly King.

"Eat slowly, I still have quite a lot left."

Ash casually took out another one and handed it to Gastly.

For a moment, this clearing in the woods was shrouded in thick fog.

Three people, a rat, and a purple, will-o'-the-wisp-like Pokémon, just squatting or floating around.

They lined up to eat fruit.

After eating it in a few bites, Ash casually wiped his hands on Pikachu's body.

He then looked around at the still thick, indistinct white fog, making it difficult to discern directions.

He spoke to Gastly quite naturally.

"Oh, right."

"The fog is so thick, we think we're a bit lost."

"By the way, do you know how to get to Ziyuan Town? If you know the way, could you please show us the way?"

Gastly, which was licking a berry, paused, its round white eyes blinking twice.

lead the way?

It's the Pokémon that loves playing pranks the most!

You actually dared to ask me for help!

But looking at the tempting fruit on the ground, and then at Ash's sincere face.

It was torn between its inner turmoil and its external forces.

hateful!

He who eats another's food is bound to him!

Ultimately, the desire for food triumphed over instinct.

Gastly nodded, scooped up a berry from the ground, swallowed it with a "gulp," then turned around and slowly floated away in a certain direction.

After floating a few meters, it even stopped for a moment, turned around, and urged them to follow with its eyes.

"Let's go! Let's catch up!"

Xiao Zhi quickly got up and called to Xiao Gang and Xiao Xia behind him.

The other two did not hesitate at all.

Follow closely in Ash's footsteps.

It's not that I believe in Gastly, but that I believe in Ash.

When it comes to being approachable, Ash is probably second to none.

The three of them trudged deeper into the fog, one step at a time.

I don't know how long it took.

The thick fog that enveloped the surroundings seemed to be slowly parted by an invisible hand.

The light gradually brightened.

The outline of a small town quietly appeared before their eyes.

"Haaah~"

Gastly hovered in place, gesturing with its eyes to the road and town that had become clearer ahead.

The implication that the mission was accomplished was quite clear.

Instead of playing pranks, it led the way, which really made it uncomfortable!

"and many more!"

But before they could leave, Ash called out to Gastly.

Xiao Zhi rummaged around and then took out a few tree fruits and gave them to it.

"Thanks, this is a gift for you."

"Haaah~"

Gastly's eyes lit up, and it quickly rolled the berry into its mouth.

He then gave Ash a look that said, "You're really on point."

If you need anything in the future, just mention Gastly's name!

Then, satisfied, it disappeared into the dissipating mist.

.......

Standing at the entrance, the three looked around.

The scene before them was completely different from the eerie and gloomy Dumb Village in Xiao Zhi's story.

Far from being terrifying, this place exudes a reassuring, tranquil, and serene atmosphere perfect for retirement.

The town is nestled among verdant hills, with a slightly undulating terrain.

A crystal-clear stream meanders through the town, its waters gurgling gently.

The air was filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees and the moist moisture.

The pace of the entire town was so slow that time seemed to stand still, with only the occasional long bird song breaking the silence.

In the center of the town.

You can also see a tall, gray-white tower standing quietly.

It appeared exceptionally solemn.

That is the famous Pokémon Tower, where departed Pokémon and trainers rest in peace.

We entered the town.

On the streets and under the shade of trees, elderly people could be seen strolling leisurely or sitting and chatting.

"Ziyuan Town truly lives up to its reputation as a retirement center in Northeast China."

Xiao Gang looked around and nodded.

As the tour guide in charge of route planning for the three-person team, he did his homework in advance yesterday.
