Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

Page 212

It clearly hadn't expected Ash to extend the invitation a second time.

But it quickly came to its senses and adjusted its sunglasses again.

You little rascal, trying to curry favor with me again?

Even if you say that, its incorruptible captain will not bend the law for personal gain!

He took out a small notebook and a small piece of charcoal pencil from the shell.

It tried its best to put on the most serious expression and waved the notebook in front of Ash.

I'll issue you a ticket if I say so!

It raised its notebook with righteous indignation.

Handle matters strictly according to the law!

The chaos at the camp just now affected innocent people and posed a safety hazard!

And... and the negative impact of your attempt to bribe this captain!

According to... uh, according to Article 5 of Chapter 3 of the "Draft Provisional Regulations on Forest Fire Prevention and Public Security Management," it is proposed that you be punished with... punished with...

It is working hard to come up with a punishment that sounds impressive.

Behind them was a younger, bolder-looking Squirtle member.

Suddenly, I carefully tugged at the edge of its shell.

“Jenny? Jenny, Jenny…”

Squirtle lowered its voice and quietly pointed its short claws in one direction.

Captain Squirtle looked in that direction.

Over there, the team members who should have been behind him, encouraging him, were now there.

They had already formed a neat line, craning their necks and gazing eagerly ahead.

Xiao Gang was holding a soup ladle, kindly ladling steaming hot soup into each of them.

Each Squirtle that received the soup immediately squinted its eyes in ecstasy, making a satisfied "Squirtle~" sound, and some even couldn't wait to slurp it down.

Captain Squirtle froze in mid-air, his claws holding the notebook and charcoal pencil wide open behind his sunglasses.

No, you?

What about stance? What about discipline?

You betrayed us over a bowl of soup?!

Its gaze swept over its incompetent subordinates, and it was about to reprimand them—

A steaming bowl of soup, brimming with ingredients, has been placed in front of it.

"Here, this is yours."

Ash gave the soup he was holding to Squirtle.

A rich aroma wafts towards you.

It was a warm flavor, a blend of tree fruits, vegetables, and some kind of delicious fungus.

Squirtle's nose twitched slightly, uncontrollably.

Immediately afterwards, a clear gurgling sound came from its stomach.

"Jenny!"

It snapped back to its senses and awkwardly pushed its sunglasses back into place.

I forcibly pulled my gaze away from the bowl of soup in front of me, which seemed to be radiating an enticing glow.

He coughed a few times, trying to regain the authority that had been interrupted.

But its gaze always involuntarily drifts towards the bowl of fragrant soup.

No!

Majesty! My own majesty!

Fairness, impartiality, rule of law, harmony, civility...

Squirtle silently recited the fire brigade's rules.

Glug glug~

My empty stomach rumbled again.

This smells even better than the last one...

struggle.

A clear struggle appeared on Captain Squirtle's little face.

Its gaze shifted back and forth between Xiao Zhi's face, the ticket in his hand, and the pot of food that seemed to be glowing.

in fact……

Thinking about it carefully, although Charmeleon and Gengar were playing around this time...

However, it was stopped in time and did not actually cause a fire... so it was an attempted fire.

Moreover, Xiao Zhi immediately conducted a serious internal reprimand and education session, showing a correct attitude.

In addition, its team members have already accepted the other party's "thank you".

As the team leader, it cannot be detached from the masses.

We need to understand the situation thoroughly.

Most importantly... its gaze finally settled on the bowl of soup, and its throat moved slightly.

Wasting food is shameful!

Especially since the food smells so good! This doesn't conform to Pokémon ethics!

Yes, we can't waste it!

After a fierce internal struggle, it seemed as if it had finally made a difficult and important decision.

Snapped!

With an expression that said, "I really can't do anything with you," it deftly closed the booklet, which had hardly any words written on it, and tucked the charcoal pencil behind its back.

Then, seemingly casually but actually quickly, he took the soup bowl from Xiaozhi's hand.

This will not be repeated.

Oh no, it means this is the last time.

......

The warm lunch ended with the Squirtle team members letting out satisfied sighs one after another.

Charmeleon and Gengar were punished by having to clean up the cooking utensils.

Ash squatted in front of Captain Squirtle, his eyes still full of expectation.

"So, Squirtle, are you really not going to reconsider?" Ash patted its hard shell, his tone carrying a final plea, "My team is missing a fire-extinguishing master like you!"

Ash is constantly thinking about his team.

The more you think about it, the more you realize that there are limits to how far a seed captain can go.

If Squirtle were added, perhaps the team could be balanced again.

Squirtle has licked the bowl until it's sparkling clean.

Upon hearing this, it silently put on its sunglasses and shook its head.

The claws instinctively touched the place behind it where the homemade notebook was kept.

"Jenny, Jenny Jenny."

Peace in the Kanto region still requires the supervision of this captain.

The draft of the temporary management regulations that we prepared ourselves has not yet been completed.

Although it knows it is excellent, it simply cannot leave!

"Jenny!"

Suddenly, Squirtle, a little brother holding an empty bowl and still looking unsatisfied, raised its claws and stared at Ash with bright eyes.
