Pokémon, Master Zhi will be a perfect man from now on

He just felt that Xiaoxia's request was too simple.

I just want to give her the mysterious drop of water as the champion’s prize. This promise is too easy to pass~

...

"The Whirlpool Islands Competition has come to an end, let us witness together, the birth of a new hero of the sea!"

The closing ceremony of the competition began. The host excitedly invited Xiaozhi to the high platform, where a simple podium had been set up.

As the runner-up, Xiaoxia can also go together, but she stands aside, so she can watch the ceremony from the nearest position.

"Congratulations, Ash Ketchum!" Priest Maya congratulated Ash Ketchum, and at the same time touched his chest with the Sea Soul Scepter and prayed, "O sea, and those brave men who are connected with Pokémon's hearts, please invite me from now on. You continue to protect Pokémon and humans!"

hum! !

As soon as she finished speaking, the Sea Soul Pearl in her hand once again bloomed with brilliance, more dazzling than ever before!

The sea near Kako City also became rough for a moment, and a huge tornado suddenly rose from the sea into the sky!

woo~

Everyone at the scene seemed to hear a long roar, and they subconsciously looked towards the tornado, only to feel that there seemed to be a shadow of a giant bird with its wings spread in the eye of the wind.

When the light of the Sea Soul Pearl completely dimmed, the storm on the sea quietly subsided and turned into a downpour of rain.

"This is..." Priest Maya seemed to notice something, but did not point it out and continued with the award ceremony.

She picked up the mysterious water drop placed in the box and gave it to Xiaozhi.

"Please accept it, this is a reward for the winner." Maya said with a smile.

"Thank you." Xiaozhi took it gratefully, but then suddenly asked, "Excuse me...can I give it away?"

"Of course, this is your prize, you have full control over it."

"Then...Xiaoxia, this is for you." With approval, Xiaozhi immediately turned to Xiaoxia, and offered the mysterious water droplet as if offering a treasure.

This scene undoubtedly attracted the attention of everyone present, and almost everyone was looking forward to the follow-up development.

I heard that the new hero and the runner-up seem to be a couple?

So is this a confession on the spot?

Well, although they are just a couple of teenagers, they are still 'adults' who are over ten years old after all... let alone confessing, even if Xiaozhi proposes on the spot, it is reasonable and legal~

"Okay, can you help me put it on?" Xiaoxia took the initiative to come to Xiaozhi, with a girl's unique naive look on her face.

The mysterious water drop looks like a pendant and can be worn as a necklace.

Xiaozhi naturally complied with Xiaoxia's request immediately. He picked up the mysterious water drop and hung it carefully on Xiaoxia's neck.

The aqua blue pendant has a hint of crystal, and it is even more sparkling under the sunlight, reflecting Xiaoxia's liveliness and beauty very well.

Looking at it from a close distance, Xiaozhi couldn't help but feel a little dazed for a moment, feeling that all he could see was the girl in front of him...

But at this moment, Xiaoxia suddenly stood up on tiptoes, wrapped her arms around his neck, and took the initiative to push her lips away!

"Well..." Xiaozhi couldn't help but trembled. When he reacted, all he could feel was the soft touch between his lips...

Then, everything around you no longer matters.

Since this is the choice Xiaoxia made, all he can do now is to give the warmest response!

The two of them fell into a state of ecstasy at the moment, completely ignoring the stunned priests around them, and the audience who went from stupefied to full of uproar, and just wanted to indulge in this sweet interaction.

"Huh... Xiaozhi..." It wasn't until a long time later that the panting Xiaoxia took the initiative to retreat and looked at Xiaozhi with blurred eyes.

"Ok?"

"I like you..." Xiaoxia seemed to be murmuring softly, but her tone was extremely firm, "I like you very much! You are the only one who must be together forever!"

At this moment, Xiaozhi no longer needed to say anything. He poured Xiaoxia into his arms again, giving her the warmth that could melt everything!

Whether it will cause secondary damage to the scene or delay the process of the award ceremony, none of this matters!

At this moment, the girl longs for him to go further and hopes to stay by his side forever...

This is the biggest gain from his trip to the Whirlpool Islands!

Chapter 498: Set off again, Zhanlan City

"It should be here..."

In the rough sea, huge whirlpools are constantly sweeping, but they cannot have the slightest impact on the people in the center of the whirlpool.

Ash was riding on Lugia's back, and the Blastoise was following beside him. The bent spoon in its hand was pointed at the center of the whirlpool...

After the Whirlpool Islands Competition ended, Xiaozhi did not leave here immediately. He had one last thing to do.

The Blastoise's path to becoming stronger is hidden in this whirlpool!

"Let's go." After confirming that his partner was ready, Xiaozhi activated the power of Neptune and dived into the sea with Lugia and Blastoise.

They were now at the very center of the entire Whirlpool Islands, where the four major whirlpools met. The water here was very clear. As they continued to dive, Xiaozhi could even clearly see the convolving whirlpool not far away.

It seemed like four never-ending turbines, constantly churning in the water while repelling all external impurities.

Apparently, Blastoises are also treated as impurities by them.

If Lugia hadn't led the way, and if Xiaozhi hadn't activated the power of the Sea King to calm it down, those terrifying vortexes would have swept up immediately, tearing its body apart.

In this way, they dived to the bottom of the sea - an open area covered by four whirlpools at the same time, seemingly calm but actually turbulent.

This is the training ground of Bend Spoon Guidance and Lugia's former residence.

"This is it." Lugia nodded and said, "This place is surrounded by large whirlpools, and no one will interfere with it. You can practice with confidence... However, the water pressure and turbulence here are very strong, and the Water Arrow Turtle may You’re going to suffer a little bit.”

After all, it is the lair of the first-level god, and only Lugia can tolerate this place.

Not to mention switching to an ordinary Pokémon, even its son Silver can't stand it now!

"What's your opinion?" Xiaozhi asked the Water Arrow Turtle.

For such an unconventional way to become stronger, he would carefully seek the opinions of his partner to ensure that he really wanted to take this step.

"Kamei!" The water arrow turtle nodded firmly.

No matter what, it must stay here and strive to walk out of its own path of becoming stronger!

Of course, there must be some reluctance... After all, it was only one step away from the position of the absolute main force.

Each special power that Xiaozhi has mastered has a specific partner corresponding to it. This perfect adaptation can maximize the Pokémon's abilities. Even when they are not cheating, they will definitely be ahead!

Pikachu, the most representative one among them, is now even more powerful and can even rival the Guardian God!

To be honest, Blastoise was very excited when Ash gained the power of Neptune.

It was the first water type that Xiaozhi conquered, and it was also the most powerful being in the same type. The Water Arrow Turtle once thought that he would be an adapter for the power of the Sea King.

But until it reached super evolution, it still couldn't feel any blessing from the power of Neptune.

Only then did it have to admit that it was not that special being after all...

"Blastoise, I'm sorry." Xiaozhi patted his partner on the shoulder. He knew what Blastoise was regretting, but there was nothing he could do.

The power of Viridian is the most suitable for Pikachu because of Pikachu’s extraordinary talent; the power of Waveguide is best suited for Lucario because Jackal is the natural destiny of the Jackal; the superpower is best suited for Hudi because of Ash’s super power. The ability and Hu Di itself originally came from Nazi...

The power he controls and what kind of partners they will be matched with are highly random and luck-based, and are not something he can decide.

And this kind of second-best choice is not only made by the Water Arrow Turtle, but also by the Crossed Bat and the Great Armor...

"Kamei!" The water arrow turtle shook his head suddenly and beat his chest hard!

It is really hard to admit that you are not qualified...but it is true and it has to be admitted!

The road must go on after all, and it must turn these regrets into motivation and find its own way to become stronger!

The water arrow turtle firmly stepped out of the protective shield, exposing its entire body to the turbulence!

boom!

In just an instant, the terrifying pressure slammed its body directly to the ground, and the vortex that followed began to cut its body continuously.

Fortunately, Xiaozhi released a force in time and submerged it into the water arrow turtle's body, which made it feel more relaxed.

That was the power obtained from the Sea Soul Pearl. The scale energy that originally belonged to Lugia was absorbed into Xiaozhi's body, and now it was transferred to the Water Arrow Turtle.

With gifts from the gods and this unique training ground, as long as the Water Arrow Turtle can persevere, it will definitely have a promising future!

"Come on, train yourself to become a strong person!" Seeing that the water arrow turtle quickly entered the state, Xiaozhi waved goodbye to his partner with confidence.

Their next stop will be to Zhanlan City!

...

After leaving the Whirlpool Islands, Xiaozhi and his five others are crossing the ocean with the help of water Pokémon and will soon arrive in Azure City.

That's right, five people.

After seeing Lugia and participating in the competition, Lucia originally had to go back to join Mikri... But this girl seemed to have skipped work and just followed the team.

According to her words, it was so dangerous to be alone on the sea, and Xiaozhi had to at least bring her to the Johto Continent.

After all this calculation, she must at least follow her to Asakusa City~

It was almost evening, and everyone finally landed on the beach of Zhanlan City. After a long sea voyage, the group all looked dusty and wished they could immediately set up tents and rest on the spot.

But not long after they landed ashore to rest, Xiaozhi's rock dog suddenly jumped out of the ball, pawing at the ground and chasing its tail manically...

"Woo...woooo..."

"Yan Gou, control yourself." Xiaozhi stepped forward and patted Yan Gou on the head, which made the little guy calm down a little.

"Rock Dog...is this going to evolve?" Lila also has a wealth of knowledge about Pokémon, especially Ash's Pokémon.

Rock dogs will become more restless before they are about to evolve, and some will even leave their trainers on their own initiative and come back after they have completed their evolution alone.

Of course, everyone knows that Xiaozhi will not allow such a thing to happen.

Except for the really special situations like the crustacean, there are important moments like evolution, which Xiaozhi must witness with his own eyes.

"Yeah, there were actually signs of it before, but I didn't expect it to be suppressed so quickly." Xiaozhi nodded silently.

As early as during the Whirlpool Islands Competition, Xiaozhi discovered the abnormality of the rock dog, but after some consideration, he decided to let nature take its course.

Otherwise, what else could happen? Could it be possible to fly back to Alola and then do nothing but squat on the shore of Akala Island waiting for the green flash at dusk?

The rock dog does have the potential to evolve into a special maned rock werewolf, but Xiaozhi will not deliberately suppress its evolution for this reason.

Now that it has signs of evolution, it can evolve naturally. No matter what it evolves into, Xiaozhi will still try his best to cultivate it!

"Rock Dog, you...hey, come back!" Xiaozhi wanted to gently pet the dog's head, but Rock Dog flew out quickly and plunged into the nearby bushes.

"Ouch! Whose puppy is this?!"

After this, a middle-aged man’s screams came from the bushes...

Chapter 499: In the Blue Gym, the eldest lady can be fed

Hearing the unfamiliar voice, Xiaozhi immediately realized that something was wrong and hurried away with his friends.

In the open space opposite the trees, a sturdy, shirtless man was sitting there, wiping the cream on his pants distressedly.

Xiaozhi's rock dog was not far from him, facing off against a similarly muscular Haoli.

"Rock Dog, stop quickly!" Upon seeing this, Xiaozhi hurriedly stepped forward and forcibly held down Rock Dog who was about to show his teeth.

"I'm really sorry that my rock dog has caused you trouble." Xiaozhi pressed the rock dog's neck and apologized to the man together with it, "You... eh, aren't you Mr. Ah Si?"

After carefully looking at the man in front of him, Xiaozhi realized that he was actually meeting the owner of the Azure Gym, Ah Si, a well-known fighter in the Johto area.

"You... ha, you are Xiaozhi! You finally came to Zhanlan City, I am so happy!" Ah Si also recognized Xiaozhi at this time, immediately showed a heroic smile, stood up and gave Xiaozhi a bear hug.

Bang!

His arm hit Xiaozhi's back with a bang, which even reminded Xiaozhi of the feeling of being hugged by a bear...

But he also knew that this was Ah Si's way of saying hello, and he was considered an elder, so it was okay to be overly enthusiastic.

"Okay! Haha, your body is very strong." Ah Si smiled with satisfaction, "Your little puppy is also well-bred, and he looks very provocative."

"I'm really ashamed." Xiaozhi quickly apologized again, "The rock dog is about to evolve recently, so he is in a restless mood. I'm sorry to disturb you."

"It doesn't matter. The process of cultivating Pokémon will always be accompanied by various episodes... It's just a pity that I have my cake and I haven't even eaten a bite~"
