Elf: Release? Not possible.

"You're welcome. The Psyduck you trained is also very good."

Upon seeing this, Xiaozhi also spoke at the same time. Although the strength is indeed not that strong, it must be said that the Psyduck trained by Xiaozhu is indeed outstanding.

The victory or defeat of both sides is entirely based on the level of strength.

"Thank you, Xiaoxia. I take back what I said before. Your Psyduck is also very good. Let's work hard together to become a master of Water Pokémon! Next time there's a chance, let's compete with each other!"

After talking to Xiaozhi, Xiaozhuo looked at Xiaoxia again.

"Well! I will also work hard, and I will fight you fairly next time!" Xiaoxia listened to Xiaozhuang's words, and her inner fighting spirit also burned.

In this way, the battle with Xiaozhuo ended. Xiaoxia and Xiaozhuo encouraged each other. Xiaozhi and his group packed up their luggage, said goodbye to Xiaozhuo, and continued their journey.

Chapter 872 Naipuru Island (Subscription Request)

"I saw!!"

Continuing their journey, Xiaozhi was chatting with Xiaoxia when Xiaojian suddenly stood up and spoke.

"Ok?"

After hearing Xiaojian's words, Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia turned around and saw a mountain towering in the distance, as if it was piercing through the clouds.

"So that's Napuru Island? It's really amazing!"

As mentioned before, Naipuru Island has the highest mountain in the entire Orange Islands.

But looking at the mountain in front of me, I am still shocked by its amazing momentum.

When Xiaozhi saw this mountain, although he had never been there, his first impression was that it was Mount Everest in his previous life.

"Let's go!" Seeing this, Xiaozhi also spoke to Longyan.

Woo! ! !

Chenglong responded, then sped up the three of them, and soon they saw the coast of Napuru Island.

Looking from the coast, you can directly see the seaside village. Because the center of Naipuru Island is completely the towering Naipuru Mountain, the residents all live on the outskirts of the island.

It looks like an island that has not been much developed and is full of nature.

About ten minutes later, the three finally arrived at Naipuru Island, stepped onto the shore, and looked at the village in front of them. It was very quiet and peaceful, and it seemed as if no one lived there.

"This village looks so quiet!" Xiaoxia couldn't help but speak when she saw this.

"Could it be that all the villagers have gone out to fish?"

Although Xiaojian is familiar with the Orange Islands, he has never been to Naipuru Island, so he doesn't know the local customs and culture here.

"This kind of place doesn't look like a gym at all."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a leisurely music playing on the sea and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw a figure, dressed in a casual shirt and shorts, dressed in a southern style, gliding on the sea in a small sailboat.

When he saw Xiaozhi and the other two, the man's eyes changed slightly, then he changed direction and headed towards the coast, quickly landing on the beach.

"Hi! Are you here to challenge the gym?" The man looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, had a clean look, and gave off a sunny and cheerful temperament.

"How do you know?" Xiao Jian asked subconsciously after hearing the voice.

"Haha! I've seen many people come to challenge the gym, so I can tell them apart! My name is Xiaodan, please give me your advice!" The man responded with a smile after hearing the voice.

"I'm Xiaozhi!"

Out of politeness, Xiaozhi also introduced himself, although he already knew that the other party was the gym trainer.

And even without the support of memory, Xiaozhi has been in this world for so many years, and coupled with the challenges in the Kanto region, he still has the ability to distinguish people.

"My name is Xiaojian!"

"My name is Xiaoxia!" Xiaojian and Xiaoxia introduced themselves at the same time.

"Xiao Xia? Then... I'll call you Xia Xia!" The man showed a sunny smile on his face and then walked straight forward.

"Please give me your guidance! Xia Xia!"

"Uh... Hello!!"

Xiaoxia was also slightly stunned. Maybe she had never been approached by a male voice before, so she felt a little unnatural and subconsciously stretched out her hand to shake hands with the other party.

"I feel very lucky today to meet such a lovely girl!" Xiao Dan spoke again when he saw this.

"No...no!"

Xiaoxia was naturally happy to hear others' praise, but she glanced at Xiaozhi and subconsciously pulled her hand back, still feeling a little embarrassed.

"He is a man who is very good at pleasing girls!" Xiao Jian couldn't help but speak when he saw this.

Xiao Zhique couldn't help but roll his eyes, Xiao Gang, you really are haunting me.

"Okay, I'll take you to the gym! Please wait for me for a moment."

However, Xiao Dan didn't seem to bother to strike up a conversation. He just gestured to the three people and then turned and entered a house.

The three of them waited outside for a long time before Xiao Dan came out again, wearing thicker mountaineering clothes and a large backpack.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, let's go!"

Xiao Dan apologized and then walked to the front to lead the three people.

0 ····Request flowers· ·····

"You seem very careful!"

Xiaoxia looked at the backpack on Xiaodan's back. She was a little surprised that she had prepared so many things just to lead the way.

"Haha! No one can predict what will happen in life. Being well prepared just in case is my motto!" Xiao Dan responded with a chuckle after hearing the voice.

"Wow! What's Xiaozhi's motto?" Xiaoxia listened and felt that the boy in front of her was really cool. Then she looked at Xiaozhi and asked.

"No matter what happens, we can overcome it with Pokémon!"

Xiaozhi didn't think about it and responded subconsciously.

"What! You are just making trouble!" Xiaoxia couldn't help but complain after hearing the voice.

...... ......... ...

Xiaozhi did not refute, this was what he really thought in his heart, to keep getting stronger, and to be able to overcome anything as long as he had Pokémon.

"Everyone is different, Xiaoxia!" Xiaojian came out to smooth things over when he saw this.

When Xiaodan listened to Xiaozhi's words, he turned his head slightly. He was slightly stunned after hearing it. After carefully savoring Xiaozhi's words, he showed an imperceptible smile. He didn't say anything more and continued to lead the way.

After walking for about twenty minutes, they arrived in front of a huge building with a huge iron gate standing in front of them.

There are walls on both sides that you can't see the end of, and you can't see anything behind the walls. The gate in front of you has the Poké Ball logo printed on it, and its style is completely different from the buildings on this island.

"Is this the Napru Gym? I didn't expect such a simple village to have such an imposing building."

Xiao Jian couldn't help but exclaimed at the scene in front of him.

Xiaodan just smiled, then motioned Xiaozhi and the others to come forward.

After hearing the sound, Xiaozhi walked forward, reached out to push the door, and a heavy sound rang in his ears.

The metal door was indeed very heavy, but fortunately it was still easy for Xiaozhi now and he quickly pushed the door open.

A completely different scenery soon appeared before their eyes, causing Xiaoxia and Xiaojian to look surprised.

"This is..." Xiaoxia said in surprise.

Chapter 873 Freehand Rock Climbing (Subscription Request)

What appeared before my eyes was not the interior of the gym as I imagined, but rather an empty space.

Looking up, I saw a mountain road entrance, and on the side of the mountain road there was a huge wooden building, and behind the building I could see the cable car line.

"Is this the trailhead? Isn't this a gym?" Xiaoxia looked at the scene and asked in confusion.

Xiao Dan, who had been leading the way enthusiastically, now said nothing, still looking at the three people from behind with a smile on her face.

"There's something over there!" Xiaozhi walked towards the trail entrance in front.

After hearing the sound, Xiaoxia and Xiaojian also discovered something similar to a signboard at the entrance of the mountain. Xiaojian walked forward, looked at the signboard and then spoke.

"Dear challengers, welcome to the Naipuru "Six-Nine-Three" gym! The rule of this gym is that challengers must first climb Mount Naipuru!"

"In addition, you need to rely on your own strength to climb the mountain. If you use the power of Pokémon during the climb, you will be disqualified! Please keep this in mind."

The sign clearly states the challenge rules for gym trainers, which is in line with the Orange Islands' gym challenge mode.

Xiao Dan, who was standing behind him, looked at Xiao Zhi's back and smiled again.

"Okay, Xiaozhi, your motto is to overcome difficulties together with Pokémon, so what are you going to do?" Xiaodan narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiaozhi and said secretly.

"Pikachu is gone!"

At this time, Xiaozhi didn't look at Xiaodan, but seemed to have guessed his thoughts. He turned and walked towards the trail entrance.

"Ah! Do we really have to climb up?"

Xiaoxia looked at the towering mountain in front of her. If she tried to climb up it, she would probably almost fall down, let alone challenge it. This gym trainer really knew how to make things difficult for her.

Xiaozhi said nothing. He walked forward and pointed at the house next to him.

"Hmm?" Xiaoxia followed Xiaozhi's gaze and saw the login entrance for the cable car.

"Let me see! It says here that people traveling together can use the cable car nearby!"

Xiao Jian took a look at the explanation at the end of the rules and it can be seen that this gym trainer has thought it through very carefully.

"But..." Xiaoxia looked at Xiaozhi with a little worry.

Xiaoxia hesitated. They were all friends after all, they came here together. She felt embarrassed that Xiaozhi had to suffer alone while they took the cable car.

If it were Misty in the anime, she would definitely take the cable car without hesitation, after all, the two of them had a lot of quarrels in the anime.

Although it is noisy here, Xiaozhi often protects them regardless of any comfort, so for Xiaoxia, following Xiaozhi means they can share the hardships.

"Xiaozhi, wait for me!!"

Xiaoxia also ran forward and caught up with Xiaozhi. Xiaojian saw that Xiaoxia, a girl, chose to take the mountain road, so he naturally couldn't fall behind.

Xiao Dan was also a little surprised when watching this scene. He had met many people who came to challenge him before, but it was really rare to see three people like this.

A smile appeared on his face and he followed.

After walking on the mountain road for about twenty minutes, we soon encountered obstacles.

There is no road in front of me, instead there is a cliff that has no end in sight.

Obviously, the next stage would be free climbing. Xiaoxia felt a little regretful when watching this scene. Why did she try to be so stubborn?

Not to mention her, even Xiaojian felt a little weak in the legs when he saw it, let alone a girl. However, Xiaozhi, with Pikachu and Jigglypuff, climbed up without hesitation.

Free climbing tests not only your physical strength and fitness, but also your eyesight.

You need to find a place to stand and grab on the irregular mountain wall.

If you make a mistake in observation and step on a loose part, you may die.

So it’s not just a physical drain, it’s also a mental drain.

“It’s still not too late to go back and take the cable car!”

Xiaozhi didn't waste any words and climbed up with Pikachu and Jigglypuff, while speaking while hiding from Misty.

"I...I don't want to go back!"

As a girl, Misty has a strong personality. After hearing what Xiaozhi said, she reluctantly hugged Togepi.

"Pokepi, listen carefully, stay in the bag and don't come out!"

As Xiaoxia said this, she stuffed Togepi into her backpack and then climbed up with him.

Xiao Jian could only follow them. Xiao Dan, who came last, saw the three people had already started climbing and showed an admiring expression. Then he followed them at the same time.

After climbing with bare hands for about twenty minutes, we had reached a very high position. At this point, we could no longer go up or down and had to climb upwards.
