Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

It's already badly damaged, but if we leave it to Kojiro and the others to study, maybe it can be restored in the future.

Of course, there's also the gravity device that Ash has been longing for.

They were very lucky to find a well-preserved fragment of the wreckage. I believe that with Kojiro and the others' abilities, they should be able to replicate it very quickly.

From now on, Ash can learn from Kakarot and train inside the gravity chamber.

As for Gilluta's wealth, that guy spent his entire life's work on the aerial fortress, and now it's all gone.

Antiques and other valuable items are extremely fragile, often ending up as just a pile of fragments, and fetching little price.

However, several stone tablets engraved with ancient myths are exceptionally sturdy and well-preserved.

"But these are even less likely to fetch a good price."

Its exterior is dull and unglamorous; the only valuable thing about it is the words on it.

Xiao Zhi could only temporarily store these stone tablets in the system space, in case he could find a suitable buyer in the future.

But Gilluta's interests are both niche and unconventional.

Is it really possible to find a buyer who enjoys studying ancient myths and history, loves Pokémon, and is also very wealthy?

Xiao Zhi expressed his doubts, saying, "Anyway, let's keep it for now."

After finishing up the cleanup, Kojiro and the others had to rush back to Team Rocket.

They were all eager to bring a lot of surprises to Amazon and Kosaburo.

Ash and Misty also boarded Lapras and began the next leg of their journey.

At the current speed of the dragon, it would only take three days to travel from Asia Island to Citrus Island.

Ash and his friends expect to arrive at Citrus Island soon, and the timing is perfect to avoid the time when Hanako's mother is there.

Having cleverly avoided another long-winded lecture, Xiao Zhi, in a great mood, immediately decided to give it a shot!

He swung his fishing rod, happily caught something, and then the result left him dumbfounded.

Chapter 162 The Orange Alliance Tournament Begins

An hour later, they hadn't caught a single fish.

"Where's the promised blessing from the sea god? Where did that extra 10% success rate go?!"

These stinking fish dared to disrespect the sea god; they deserved a tasteless scoop net.

Another half hour passed before he finally managed to catch a small carp king.

Ash, looking exasperated, personally used Chop Slash to defeat Magikarp and release it.

"At least I can catch fish now, which is a great improvement!" That was the only way he could console himself.

Xiaoxia, meanwhile, was demonstrating her skills by catching a fish every three seconds next to him, and she even easily caught a mosquito coil tadpole.

I simply tossed a ball at it and successfully tamed it.

"If you ask me, someone should just give up fishing," Misty said, shaking her Poké Ball with a boast.

"Impossible! My dream is to catch Kyogre!"

What lofty ambitions! But Xiao Zhi was very serious when he spoke.

"Hahaha, did I hear that right? Fishing for what?"

"Xiao Zhi, the most important thing you should do right now is to sell your fishing rod."

"How could anyone possibly fish out Kyogre with a fishing rod?" Misty stretched out her delicate white foot and poked Ash's face in a provocative gesture.

"You must be out of your mind to say something like that."

"What if I do it?" Ash wasn't joking.

"If you can do that, I won't care how many girlfriends you want to have in the future."

In fact, Misty does have a possessive streak towards Ash, and accepting Sabrina and Nurse Joy is already her limit.

Lijia swallowed it all down through Xiaoxia's gritted teeth.

If Xiaozhi manages to do something so absolutely impossible, she'll completely admit defeat.

"So, I can have whoever I want?" Could it be that Ash has been longing for the Cerulean sisters...?

"It doesn't matter who's there or how many people are there!" Xiaoxia's answer was also very firm.

"At the same time, if this is not achieved within three years, no more people will be allowed to be added to the 'house'!"

"Hmm... Deal!"

Not only for the sake of teaming up with others, Ash also wanted to prove himself.

No gambler can always lose, and no short seller can always be short!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered a new epic quest, "White Bar, Upturned Mouth, Big Explosion!": Please use your fishing rod to catch the legendary Pokémon Kyogre!]

"If I add the 10% blessing from the sea god, wouldn't that mean that as long as I complete the task, I'll have a 60% chance of succeeding every time I swing?"

Ash was lost in his beautiful fantasies about the future, while Misty was still performing her trick of catching a fish every three seconds next to him.

"Damn it, Xia, you'll get what's coming to you tonight!"

He wanted to make up for all the protein she had been missing these past few days!

----------

They traveled along, stopping frequently to fish. Ash and his friends soon arrived at Citrus Island.

Citrus Island is the capital of the Orange League and covers a vast area.

The island is dotted with buildings, the most eye-catching of which is a tall building in the center that looks like the Roman Colosseum.

"Ash, that's where the Final Victory Cup Challenge will be held."

"The largest battlefield in the entire Orange League, the Hall of Victory."

Xiaoxia held up the map and explained it to Xiaozhi.

"By defeating the chief trainer there, you can gain the honor of having your mark and that of your Pokémon forever enshrined in the hall."

"Has it finally arrived?" Ash was now very much looking forward to his upcoming battle against the champion.

Of course, the first thing to do was to go to my villa on Citrus Island and drop off my luggage.

This is the house that Orange Alliance awarded him. It has a great location with beautiful scenery and convenient transportation.

Ash immediately deployed the last teleporter in the Orange Islands.

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the side quest "Go and light up all the teleportation anchors! (Orange Islands Chapter)": Please light up the teleportation coordinates in the important cities of the Orange Alliance (15/15)]

[Rewards: 8000 Alliance Coins; Speed ​​+2; Free Attribute Points +4; Milton Battle Ticket Fragment +1 (Rumor has it that collecting four fragments can summon Shenron!)]

The Orange Islands anchor point mission is now finally complete.

Just then, the villa's door suddenly rang, and Xiaozhi quickly opened it.

Outside the door stood an old acquaintance and a tall young man with a shrinking Poké Ball necklace around his neck.

"President Dama Lanqi, and who is this gentleman?"

Xiao Zhi quickly welcomed them into the living room.

"Long time no see, Ash! How have you been?"

The president, as always, smiled and waved to Ash, looking as energetic as ever.

"This is Xiaoyong, the chief trainer of the Orange League. He came here specifically to meet you."

"Hello Ash, I'm Xiaoyong, the League's top trainer."

Xiao Yong spoke very politely and shook hands with Xiao Zhi as soon as he arrived, but his eyes were quite aggressive.

"The purpose of my visit here is to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the Orange Alliance, and to meet our next opponent."

"I haven't lost since I became the champion, and I'm really looking forward to our next match!"

"I'm really looking forward to it too."

The two held hands tightly, their gazes mingling as if sparks were about to fly.

"Hahaha, I can't stand it anymore, youth is wonderful."

"Although the Orange Alliance is not very wealthy, we cannot treat our great contributors poorly. They must be treated with the respect they deserve."

"We're here to express the entire league's welcome to you, and we hope you understand."

Of course I understand. The franchise rights granted by the Orange League have already allowed Ash to earn a lot, not to mention the long-term benefits.

"Speaking of which, since President Dama Lanqi and Xiao Yong came together, are you also the president of the Orange Alliance?"

"Yes, currently, both the Johto and Orange Alliances are alliances that originated from the Kanto region."

"Although they have nominally developed independently, they remain closely linked politically and economically."

"When either party is in trouble, we will help each other without reservation."

So the Orange League used to be part of the Kanto region? Ash is really curious about how big the original Kanto region was.

"This is because the Orange League was only recently established and many of its systems are not yet perfect. Even the regional tournaments have not yet been officially recognized by the Supreme League."

"Since the previous president stepped down, no new president has been elected yet, so I will be in charge for a while."

"I always feel that Chairman Damalanqi is really amazing."

"Of course, Chairman Damaranchi is the greatest figure in the current Pokémon League."

At this moment, Xiaoxia also brought over tea and chimed in to fill in the gaps in Xiaozhi's knowledge.

"Furthermore, the league tournaments in the Kanto, Orange, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh regions are all overseen by Mr. Damaran, who is also the president of the Kanto League."

"Being called the greatest is just flattery from others; it's not that great."

The old chairman seemed embarrassed by being spoken to like that, and after taking a sip of tea, he waved his hands repeatedly.

Ash had heard that the Kanto region held a prestigious position among all regions, but he never imagined that the Kanto Association Chairman could wield such power.

This unassuming old gentleman is indeed a remarkable person.

"By the way, Ash, how are those two Pokémon I gave you?"

"They're both great. Ralts has evolved into Gardevoir, and Eevee has become much stronger."

Ash immediately realized that the chairman was referring to Eevee and Gardevoir.

Those two have been causing trouble for Professor Oak's backyard too, but they weren't like that here in the Orange Islands.

"Haha, that's good. In that case, I'll leave this child in your care."

"Consider this a reward for you." The president took out a Poké Ball from his pocket and released the Pokémon inside.

It turned out to be a shiny Ralts. As soon as it appeared, it hid behind the corner of the table, seemingly even more shy than Xiaonan-niang had been before.

"With your previous experience, I'm sure you'll be able to take better care of this child."

After finishing their tasks, the busy president and chief bid farewell to Xiaozhi and went back to their work.

"Being the president of two regions sounds prestigious, but it also doubles the workload. President Dama Lanqi has it pretty tough."

After saying that, Ash went back to the living room to look for the shiny Ralts.

This child is indeed shy and even trembled a little when he saw Xiaozhi.

But after being fed a few Delicious Energy Cubes, it became a little closer to Ash.

Returning it to its Poké Ball, "This time, Ralts is a girl."

I thought it would be another little Nanniang.

"In short, nurture them well."

"Ash, did you forget to register for the Winners Cup?"
