Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

Loyalty to the alliance is my creed!

Once you put on this armband, you can't just think of yourself!

We want to lead everyone to prosperity.

Oh no, let's uphold justice together!

The younger brothers stood ramrod straight, their eyes glistening with tears.

“Jenny…”

The little Squirtle behind me was just dizzy from being "spinned at high speed".

The first one shed tears of emotion. It raised its paw and secretly wiped its eyes.

"Jenny, Jenny!"

The other Squirtle sniffed, its voice choked with emotion.

The captain is truly amazing.

For our sake, they even gave up the opportunity to travel with Xiaozhi and enjoy delicious food!

Since that's the case, then why don't I...

"As expected of the Pokémon I chose," Ash stood up, his gaze falling on the lead Squirtle, his tone filled with sincere admiration, "So loyal and devoted, I knew my judgment was right!"

He scratched the back of his head, as if he had remembered something, and said casually.

"Sigh! I was thinking that if you were willing to come with me, I would buy those limited edition sunglasses as a gift for us."

"Looking at it this way, we're still not meant to be."

188. Godfather!

The leader, Squirtle, was still immersed in the authoritative persona of the "captain".

His eyes behind the sunglasses were deep and resolute, and his chin was slightly raised.

They adopted a tough, unyielding stance, believing that "loyalty is the creed and mission is paramount."

After all, it was the elder brother who led a team of firefighters to fight wildfires and became the head of the newsroom.

How could we be swayed by a few sweet words?

The words fell.

“Jenny.”

Squirtle calmly nodded.

Oh, is that so? If I'm willing to go with you.

You'll buy those limited edition sunglasses... as a gift...

着？

Squirtle, realizing something was amiss, understood what was going on.

It slowly, frame by frame, turned its head to look at Ash beside it.

“…Jenny?”

and many more.

Ash, what did you just say?

"?"

Xiao Zhi was a little confused, but he still obediently repeated it.

"So it seems we're not meant to be?"

"Jenny!"

Not that sentence! It's the very first sentence!

Squirtle was so anxious it almost jumped up, its two short claws flailing wildly in the air.

Xiao Zhi tilted his head and thought for a moment.

"Hmm... no wonder it's the Pokémon I've set my sights on?"

He hadn't finished speaking.

The leader of the Squirtle nodded.

"Jenny!"

Since you've said so, Ash...

What else is there to say!

Squirtle ripped off the bright red armband from its upper arm.

Decisiveness in action.

It's as if it wasn't the one that just swore "loyalty is the creed".

It looked around and its gaze locked onto the Squirtle next to it, which was still sniffling and had red eyes.

The Squirtle was so engrossed in Big Brother's righteous speech that it suddenly felt something on its arm.

It looked down and saw that an armband was already securely fastened to its short little arm.

The red background with gold thread still carries the warmth of the former captain.

"Jack, Jenny?"

It suddenly looked up, snot still on its face, and stared blankly at its older brother.

Captain... what does this mean?

It's incredibly loyal!

The leader, Squirtle—

No, he's now a "former battalion commander".

With an unusually serious expression, he placed both hands on the Squirtle's shoulders, his gaze piercing, and spoke each word slowly and deliberately.

"Jenny, Jenny, Jenny."

Listen carefully.

From this moment forward, you are the new captain of the fire brigade!

“…Jenny?!”

The Squirtle's eyes widened.

I? ? ?

The other Squirtle turtles were also collectively petrified, their jaws almost dropping to the ground.

Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone present, the former captain made a clean and decisive turn.

Slightly bend your knees and exert force with your back leg.

The turtle traced a perfect straight line on the floor and glided precisely to Ash's feet.

Its two short claws snapped together and were raised high above its head.

He bowed down to Xiaozhi with his whole body, his devout posture comparable to that of a pilgrim.

"Jenny—!!"

The tortoise has drifted aimlessly for half its life, never encountering a wise ruler.

If you do not abandon me...

Gui, I wish to become your godfather!

That shout was clear, resonant, and powerful.

If this place weren't so open, the echo would have lingered for three rounds without dissipating.

Xiaoxia, who had rushed over to watch the drama unfold, was now completely dumbfounded, her mouth agape in a perfect "O" shape.

"Wasn't...were you just refusing?"

She blinked hard and rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't hallucinating.

"What's going on here?!"

How did the plot twist faster than she changed her bath towel?

She couldn't understand it; she really couldn't understand it.

Upon hearing this, Pikachu, sitting on the head of the abandoned monkey, glanced at Misty.

He shook his head helplessly.

"Pikachu".

Honestly, how can you still be so immature after all this time?

Isn't this just Ash's basic skill?

What's so strange about that?

Xiaoxia: "..."

Several Squirtle turtles finally came to their senses and gathered around, chattering excitedly.

"Jenny!" "Jenny, Jenny!" "Jenny!?"

Captain, wake up!

Are those sunglasses really that important?

Yeah! Why did you pass the position to it? I could have done it too!

Didn't we agree that we'd work together for the rest of our lives, retire together, and live out our retirement together by the sea?

The former captain didn't turn his head, remaining motionless, his two short legs firmly planted on the ground, no matter how hard they pulled, they couldn't budge him.
