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

Ash smiled with satisfaction as he observed Pear Blossom and the ground squirrels interacting from a distant mountaintop.

"Ding! Pear Blossom's kindness value increases by one."

Unfortunately, the system didn't have such a thing; it was something Xiao Zhi shouted out himself.

When Rinka returned with the Digletts, Ash tied up all the Onix that had been knocked down using 'super strong rope' (11,000 ropes produced by the system!).

He planned to drag them back to their original habitat.

"Xiaoxia, shouldn't the Onix's original habitat be in the valley ahead?"

Xiaoxia took out the map, looked at it carefully, and then nodded.

"That's right, the map explains it. These giant rock snakes have always lived in the valley ahead."

"There are also reminders for travelers here..."

"Hey Ash, and the valley ahead is called Charizard Valley!"

At that moment, Xiaoxia suddenly noticed a bright spot.

"The legendary Charizard Valley Nature Park is off-limits to ordinary people... I've heard that a large number of powerful wild Charizards gather there."

"Really? Then wouldn't that mean we could fight against a very powerful Charizard?"

"I'm so excited! Let's get going!"

Ash suddenly became interested, grabbed the tied-up Onix, and ran forward at breakneck speed.

"Wait for us, Ash!"

Meanwhile, Ji Ke, who was waiting for Ash to arrive in the Charizard Valley, was explaining things to his cute Charizard, Lisa.

"Listen up, Lisa. If you see a trio of trainers with Pikachu coming from afar later, be sure to tell me."

Opposite her, a Charizard with a large pink bow on its head immediately nodded obediently.

Ji Ke had previously received news that a powerful Charizard trainer was coming.

She was so happy at the time.

As the guardian of the Charizard Valley, he is usually all alone in the entire valley.

Aside from when they go out to buy food, there is absolutely no sign of human life.

She gets so excited when a guest finally comes that she can't sleep.

The heir to the Charizard family is truly tragic!

Unfortunately, due to the Rockets' disruptions during this period, the Central League of Tokyo has been receiving less funding.

"They didn't give much before, and now they're reducing it again..." Ji Ke was on the verge of tears.

Looking at the vegetables she had just bought and not a single piece of meat, Ji Ke felt that her future seemed rather bleak.

Even his favorite Pokémon, Lisa, hasn't had good food in a long time.

"Hmph~" Little Lisa was also disappointed.

"Ah, now is not the time to be down."

"A new Charizard trainer is coming, Lisa, we must cheer up!"

Because Xiao Zhi and his friends got lost, Ji Ke had been waiting for them here for two days without seeing them.

Feeling a bit down, I even started to cry while looking at my shopping basket.

But today, Nurse Joy from the town ahead sent a message that Ash and his friends are finally almost there.

"They'll definitely arrive today... probably... maybe..." Ji Ke and Xiao Zhi were getting anxious waiting for them.

Suddenly, Lisa spotted a figure billowing with smoke in the distance from the air and quickly alerted her trainer.

"Roar, roar!!"

"Oh, they're here!" Ji Ke immediately stood up from her circling motions on the ground.

Just as she was happily waiting for Ash to arrive.

What came into view was a terrifying scene of a muscular man dragging a "heap" of massive onyx snakes charging towards him.

The muscular man had a yellow Pikachu hanging on his shoulder, and the billowing dust behind him looked like a train crashing around.

"What is this?!"

This is of course Ash Ketchum.

Upon learning about the Fire Dragon Valley, he immediately became excited and rushed over, only to give Ji Ke a big fright.

In the ravine-filled valley, Xiao Zhi's movements made it seem like an earthquake was about to strike.

He soon arrived at a rare flat area in the valley.

"Alright, this is where the Onix originally lived."

He grabbed a large clump behind him and threw it all over, then untied the ropes for the giant oni.

Just then, Old Spray flew over carrying Xiaoxia and Lihua, and also holding two unconscious giant rock snakes in his arms.

"Thanks for your hard work, Charizard." He then recalled Charizard into its Poké Ball.

Ash threw all the Onix into the flat ground, and the lost Pokémon finally returned home.

After feeding each one the healing potion, the Onix woke up groggily after a while.

At first, he was confused, then happy to finally be home, but the moment he noticed Ash, all of that turned to fear.

They all ran away in a flash, too afraid to face Ash again.

Is it really necessary to go to such lengths?

"Speaking of Misty, is Charizard Valley really where?" Ash looked around.

"It seems like most of the Pokémon here are Rock-type."

Aside from Ash's own Charizard, we didn't see a single other Charizard on the way.

"I don't know either, because ordinary people can't enter the Fire-Breathing Dragon Valley." Xiaoxia was at a loss.

The nature park is so big, how are they going to find it?

Just when Xiao Zhi was at his wit's end, Ji Ke finally got his chance to shine.

Ji Ke, who had intended to descend from the sky in a cool pose, unexpectedly landed in the hole dug by the giant rock snake.

With a thud, it fell to the bottom of the hole.

Fortunately, the giant rock snakes had made a turn underground, so the hole wasn't very deep.

"Who on earth covered the entrance of the cave with dry grass and sprinkled soil?"

As a result, Ji Ke wasn't paying attention and fell down, and now she's seeing stars.

Actually, Rika wanted Ash to fill in the holes that Onix had dug, so that he wouldn't suddenly have any ideas later.

So Pear Blossom decided to take the initiative and laid some dry grass on the holes, then sprinkled some soil on top.

Pretending the hole didn't exist, Ji Ke unexpectedly stepped right on it.

"Oh dear, really..." Pear Blossom was speechless. How could anyone be so unlucky?

Ash certainly knew what Crinum had done, but the hole Onix dug was originally part of its habitat.

I never intended for Pear Blossom to fill it in, and the thin layer of covering she laid wouldn't have any effect on the Onix.

So we didn't do anything about it, but now that someone is injured, it's a different story.

"It seems you haven't learned your lesson at all, Lily. This is your punishment."

Pear Blossom's good deed today was all for nothing.

"What? No way!"

"It was just a little slacking off, but who actually fell into the trap?"

Then Ash and his friends remembered that someone had fallen in earlier, so they quickly went to check.

Little Lisa, who was waiting in the sky, immediately flew down and pulled Ji Ke out of the cave.

Feeling dizzy, Ji Ke took a while to recover.

"Where am I? Why are there so many stars even though it's daytime?"

"Oh right, Trainer!" Ji Ke quickly jumped up from the ground and took out a staff with a gem shaped like a Poké Ball embedded at the top.

Trying her best to strike a normal pose, she said, "Hello, Charizard trainers! I am Ji Ke, the current guardian of Charizard Valley!"

"Our duty is to protect the Fire Dragon Valley and guard against poachers!"

"What a coincidence to run into you here..." Ji Ke still felt a little dizzy.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhi quickly and gently picked her up and carefully fed her a stamina potion.

"Oh, what a gentle and kind man~" Ji Ke felt much better, and now there seemed to be some ambiguity between her and Xiao Zhi.

There wasn't a single man in the entire Charizard Valley, let alone anyone else. Ji Ke had never seen such a physically fit "good stuff" as Ash.

Just as Ji Ke wanted to enjoy herself in Xiao Zhi's arms a little longer, she suddenly noticed Xiao Xia and Li Hua standing to the side with unfriendly eyes.

"Cough! Cough!" He immediately stood up and stretched to ease the awkwardness.

"Miss Ji Ke, how did you know I'm a Charizard trainer?"

"Of course it's because I can smell the scent on you from spending so much time with Charizard."

Actually, Ji Ke was pretending to be an expert; he was just pretending because he had seen Ash's Charizard while peeking.

But Xiao Zhi didn't know that; instead, he thought this person was quite amazing.

"As expected of the guardian of Charizard Valley, he must be a seasoned Charizard trainer."

"So this is indeed Charizard Valley, but we haven't seen any Charizards here," Xiaoxia asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Charizard, simple." Ji Ke smiled meaningfully, walked straight to the cliff, and shouted.

"Charizard!!!"

As Ji Ke's voice echoed through the valley, a series of dragon roars immediately came from the foot of a distant mountain peak.

Numerous columns of flame also rose up, creating a spectacular sight.

"Oh~" Ash and Pikachu watched this scene with great excitement.

"So the fire-breathing dragons were all over there."

"Pikachu, Pikachu!"

"The heart of Charizard Valley is there, where a large number of wild Charizards gather, growing stronger on their own without the help of trainers."

"Each one is incredibly powerful; only Charizards with sufficient strength are qualified to survive there."

"So, Ash, do you want to go over and let your Charizard challenge them?"

"Okay, thank you for your help, Miss Ji Ke." Xiao Zhi couldn't wait any longer after hearing her introduction.

Isn't that exactly what he came here for?

"Okay, let's go!"

Chapter 198 Dam (Dan) Emperor

Ji Ke whistled, and Xiao Lisa arrived in front of Xiao Xia and the others, dragging a hot air balloon.

"We'll be flying very fast soon, so these two ladies can sit in the hot air balloon and come with me." Ji Ke rolled over and climbed onto Xiao Lisa's back.

"Is it alright for Ash to ride his Charizard behind me?"
