The world's strongest trainer

"Just sit and watch."

"No, what I mean is, what ghost-type Pokémon do you think can take away a person's shadow? This is too suspenseful!"

"I don't know which ghost-type Pokémon can take away people's shadows. I only know that Guo Ranweng and Miss Goth have the ability to step on shadows. Oh yes, Gengar after mega evolution also has the ability to step on shadows."

"Even you don't know, that's weird." Da Zhuang was very depressed. He suddenly picked up the bowl and drank the tonkotsu ramen soup in one gulp.

"It's quite strange!"

Bai Ze was still eating his ramen.

I can't help but think of the Shadow Fruit in One Piece. With the ability of the Shadow Fruit, Moria can take away people's shadows, and then put the shadows into zombies, thus creating zombie soldiers.

Chapter 111 Strange Hostility

But this is the Pokémon world.

It's not the One Piece world.

Even though the Shadow Plunder incident is somewhat similar to the Shadow Fruit, the person whose shadow is taken away will not disappear just by being exposed to sunlight.

Losing one's shadow means, at most, one becomes as afraid of light as a vampire, one's face gradually turns pale and bloodless, and the whole person is in an extremely weak state, walking lightly and speaking feebly.

It is known that the hair of the explorer whose shadow was taken away two years ago turned white, which was obviously a symptom of the rapid loss of life energy.

Because of my fear of light, I had to put on a black robe. I didn't even dare to watch TV. I only felt comfortable when I was in the dark, and I often felt like a ghost.

Call ~

Da Zhuang is not full yet.

So I ordered another bowl of ramen.

At this moment, a man in a black robe hurriedly walked in. He fell down because he was not looking at the road and fell in front of Bai Ze.

"Excuse me!"

"you are?"

Bai Ze saw his face.

He couldn't help but frown.

"Why are you here? Could it be that you are here to see my joke? You can laugh if you want. I will get my shadow back sooner or later."

"Haha, I don't have the leisure to watch your jokes. After you lost to me, you went to the Ghost Forest to capture the ghost-type Pokémon that was rumored to be able to take away shadows. Could it be that you wanted to challenge it again? Get your face back?"

It turns out that this person is Yuan Hao.

Because I am not convinced.

Under the recommendation of Dakdo.

Wanting to make Bai Ze look embarrassed.

In the end, it was himself who made a fool of himself.

This guy heard that there might be a very powerful ghost-type Pokémon hidden in the Haunted Forest in Curtain City, so he ran over to capture it, but unexpectedly he got lost in it and lost his shadow.

"Yes, I just want to get my face back." Yuanhao said, suddenly losing his confidence and becoming like this. He probably won't even be able to participate in the Sinnoh Alliance Conference, let alone collect the remaining four badges. .

"People always have to pay a heavy price for their arrogance. It seems that this sentence is right. Losing your shadow for the sake of face is something only you can do." Bai Ze couldn't help but sigh.

"Didn't you come to Curtain City to conquer the mysterious existence hidden in the ghost forest?" Yuanhao heard the meaning of Bai Ze's words and turned back after ordering the meal to ask.

"No, I came to Curtain City to challenge the Curtain Gym." Bai Ze took out the paving stone badge from his trouser pocket and showed it to him, and said that he would set off for the next city tomorrow and would not risk his own life by entering the Ghost Forest.

After saying that, he turned to look out the window.

He ignored Yuan Hao.

The reason he didn't leave was because Da Zhuang had just ordered a bowl of tonkotsu ramen. After all, he was big and had a big appetite. The extra-large bowl of tonkotsu ramen he just ordered wasn't enough to fill his teeth, so he had to eat another meal.

Yuanhao held the ramen and deliberately found a seat close to Bai Ze. He deliberately muttered: "There are many ghosts in the ghost forest. At first, I thought those ghosts were ghost-type Pokémon, so I chased them."

"I chased after him, and before I knew it, I got to the haunted house. It was really strange. There was water all around the haunted house."

Obviously, he said this to attract Bai Ze's attention. If Bai Ze also develops a strong interest in the ghost forest, he might have his shadow taken away. This is a deliberate attempt.

"shut up!"

Da Zhuang raised his paw and slammed the table.

Yuan Hao was shocked.

"I didn't interrupt your meal. Talking to yourself doesn't seem to be illegal. You can't threaten me in person." Yuan Hao said with a proud smile.

"Ah, yes, I was rash just now. I sweated so much while eating ramen. Seeing how hot you are, I'll help you take off your black robe!" Da Zhuang stood up with a smile and took off Yuan Hao's black robe in two or three strokes.

"Why did you take off my black robe..." Yuanhao screamed like a pig in fear. He felt particularly uncomfortable when he saw the light. Even if the soft light shone on his skin, it would feel stinging.

After Da Zhuang's warning, he didn't dare to talk to himself anymore, and quickly sat far away with the ramen, like an injured little hedgehog. It was pitiful and funny at the same time. Some people are bad and don't realize they are really indebted.

Bai Ze smiled helplessly.

Tell Da Zhuang to eat quickly.

Then it's time to return to the hotel.

Since the atmosphere in the ramen restaurant was particularly strange, Da Zhuang finished the extra large bowl of tonkotsu ramen that the waiter had just brought to him in just two or three moves.

"Bill, please!"

After paying the bill, he left.

It was uncomfortable to be there.

Because Da Zhuang had just finished treating Yuan Hao, the trainers in black robes became inexplicably hostile.

Perhaps because of sympathy for each other, the strangers in black robes inevitably felt uncomfortable when they saw Da Zhuang taking off Yuanhao's black robe in public, so they cast unfriendly glances from time to time.

"Am I in trouble?"

"seems like it!"

When they walked out of the tonkotsu ramen restaurant.

The trainers in black robes also followed, exuding a deeply uncomfortable negative aura and resentful energy.

In fact, Da Zhuang's original intention was to protect Bai Ze and prevent Yuan Hao from taking advantage of him, but he didn't expect that it would attract unfamiliar hostility.

"What do you want to do?"

Ah Li suddenly appeared and shouted to stop.

So much so that they dare not make trouble.

This group of trainers in black robes did not cause trouble once or twice. The mayor once invited some experts who were knowledgeable about ghosts to come over to eliminate troubles. Unexpectedly, the development of the situation became increasingly uncontrollable.

Even experts who have extensive research on ghosts cannot figure out how the mysterious existence in the ghost forest takes away human shadows, and it is impossible to see through its true identity.

"Thank you, Li!"

Bai Ze saw the group leaving.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"You don't understand the situation in Curtain City. Since the Shadow Plunder incident, more and more people have lost their shadows... In fact, in the past two years, this incident was not that serious. The mayor once issued a ban banning all One steps into a forest of ghosts.”

At this time, Ah Li would go to the street to inspect the situation: "Just six months ago, some people ignored the ban and broke into the ghost forest. As a result, the horror rumors spread more and more widely."

"I can feel a very strong energy of resentment from these people. It is probably due to the influence of the ghost forest that they became like this." As for why he lost his shadow, Bai Ze had no way of guessing.

"Oh? So you have superpowers?" Ah Li would always take Lucario with her when she went to the streets to inspect the situation. After Lucario's many reminders, she finally discovered that Bai Ze was not simple.

Bai Ze looked at Lucario.

Wondering how to fool me.

In the end, I found that I couldn't fool him anymore, so I relented: "I have the same waveguide perception as Lucario, so I'm half a superpower!"

"That's great. The mayor is looking for the wave guide messenger to come and help. If the shadow robbery incident is not solved for one day, Curtain City will not be fully open to the outside world." Ah Li was worried that he could not find the wave guide messenger.

Chapter 112 Ghosts

"But my abilities are limited."

"But it doesn't hurt to try."

"What if I lose my shadow too?"

What Bai Ze said makes no sense. The risks here are very high. If you are not careful, you will turn into a man in black robes, exuding negativity and resentment. It will be difficult to live a normal life.

Ah Li was at a loss for words. He didn't know what reason to use to convince Bai Ze. If he didn't do this, he would be embarrassed. However, the mayor paid a lot of money to invite the waveguide messenger to come and help.

"I know there are risks. Once the work is done, the mayor will reward you with a lot of money and will never let your work go in vain."

"A heavy reward?"

"Ok!"

"how many?"

"About two million."

"You're actually willing to bleed profusely!"

"At the beginning, it was 200,000 alliance coins, and then it was gradually increased to 2 million alliance coins, which increased tenfold."

"So that's it. If there's a big reward, then I can give it a try, but there's no guarantee of success." Bai Ze never does thankless things. Since there is money to be made, why not make it.

"Okay, I'll report to the mayor." Ah Li turned around and ran to contact the mayor, saying that he had found the waveguide messenger.

Only Lucario was left to assist.

Wait until the report is finished.

She will come back again.

However, Bai Ze misunderstood what Li meant and took Lucario directly towards the Ghost Forest.

Lucario stared at Bai Ze curiously, and was actually attracted by the waveguide energy emanating from Baize's body, because it had never met a trainer with such powerful waveguide energy.

"Your waveguide is so strong!"

"is it?"

"Yeah, very strong."

"Is it yours or mine?"

Lucario was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Bai Ze to ask this question, but he still answered truthfully: "Your waveguide is better than mine."

"Impossible. You are a Pokémon and I am a human. How could my waveguide be stronger than yours?" Bai Ze seemed unconvinced.

"It's true that you are a human being, but I always feel that your waveguide energy is different from ordinary waveguide energy. It contains extremely powerful power of creation... Yes, the power of creation can bring luck or special effects to Pokémon. Change." No wonder Lucario is attracted.

"Haha, I'm not as powerful as you say!" Bai Ze said modestly, "I'm not afraid to tell you that what I own is a sacred waveguide."

"Holy Waveguide?"

Lucario opened his mouth.

This is probably the first time I have heard of a sacred waveguide in the world. No wonder I feel that this pure white waveguide energy contains the power of creation. It turns out it is not an illusion, but a real unknown force.

Bai Ze said that there is no need to be surprised: "In fact, the essence of the sacred waveguide is still a waveguide, but it has a little more uses than ordinary waveguides."

"Okay, the Ghost Forest is not far ahead!" Lucario spoke in Elvish, because it knew Bai Ze could understand it, so there was no barrier to communication.

"Someone is running from that direction!" Bai Ze could feel the energy of resentment in front of him without using his abilities.

"who?"

Lucario said warily.

After taking a closer look, he realized that it was the person he had just met at the ramen restaurant. Bai Ze remembered that this person refused to listen and insisted on taking the owl, the cunning tengu and the giant wolfdog into the ghost forest.

"Xiao Xiao!" At this moment, someone appeared near the Ghost Forest. He was worried about the trainer who was not listening to his advice, so he ran over to take a look.

"He's in front."
