Nibi City is a city famous for stone, and gray has become the representative color of Nibi City, so Nibi City also has the nickname of "Gray Stone City". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBecause of the abundance of stones, there are also many rock-based spirits living near Nibi City.The gym trainer who can use rock-based spirits flexibly is the most famous person in the city: Xiao Gang.

Kazuki and his party walked out of the forest and finally saw the long-awaited city of Nibi.

Leo Lu is in a good mood because the character of Xiao Gang is one of his favorite male characters. Ash's companions, he likes them all.

No matter how disappointed Ikki is, he will be a little more energetic because of the upcoming first gym challenge, and he still has the big picture.

He couldn't help it a little when he was still in Changqi City earlier, but after all, it was Leolu's suggestion, and it was not good to refuse, and he heard people nearby talk about the challenge rules of Changqi City's Daoist Pavilion, and the number of elves he had to forcibly suppress the emotions in his heart. But now that the opportunity has come, he's ready to show his skills!

"Well, now that we're in the city, we're going to part ways. Youdou stepped forward with a grin and patted Yihui hard, "You kid have to come on! Don't embarrass me!"

Yihui brushed his hand away, turned his head silently, and for a long time, let out a soft "um".

If you want to leave, why stay.

Although Yuto has caused a lot of trouble to Ikki, he is actually quite good, and Leo Lu can also feel the lost waveguide emanating from Ikki's body.

"Then take care of yourself, Jenny Turtle and I are about to embark on a new journey. He lowered his body again, squatted in front of Leo Lu and said, "Leo Lu, you too, why don't you just come with me?"

After listening to Yuto's words, Ikki also turned his head to look at Leo Road.

"Would you like to go?"

Kazuki's mouth opened slightly, and he asked quietly in a voice that only he and Leolu could hear.

'This kid, don't you worry that I'm going with him......

He shook his head and rejected Yuto's kindness.

Since he said that he could be friends with Ikki, coupled with Yukino's entrustment, Ikki is still very immature, and it is inevitable that something will go wrong by himself. If you want him to go against his words, unless he never said it, he will never break his promise, not to mention that he has received a lot of help from Yihui's family, at least he has to repay this favor.

Yuto was not disappointed either, and it was completely expected that Leo Lu would refuse. He stood up and pretended to be a little distressed and smiled: "It's better to follow me, forget it, I'm joking, you guys should work hard, I hope we can meet one day, and then we must have a competition with me, I must let you see my strength, oh oh! Jenny Turtle, let's go!"

"Jenny Jeni!"

Watching Yuto and Jenny Turtle fade away, Ikki silently said "Thank you".

――――――――――――――――――――

"Little friend, what kind of stones do you want to buy, uncle, I have all kinds of stones. ”

On the outskirts of Nibi City, in a sparsely populated area, an uncle with a hat and a beard sat cross-legged on the ground, selling stones to passers-by, but as expected, the few pedestrians were not even interested in looking at him. Ikki was pestered by him just out of curiosity.

"No, I'm just here to travel. I hope to find a place to stay at the Pokew Center in Nibi City. ”

“…… You're a trainer, are you going to challenge the Nibi City Gym?"

Ikki was a little surprised, his outfit was not special, and the Poké Balls and Illustrated Books were also in his bag, and there were only Leo Lu and Lu Lili outside, how did he see it?

Now that his identity has been revealed, there is nothing to lose anyway, Ikki hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Then I advise you to give up, Xiao Gang is not an ordinary trainer, and your current ability is not enough to defeat him. ”

The uncle kept his hands in the environment, and slowly stood up, and there seemed to be some pride in his tone when he spoke.

"Uh...... Since you know so well, uncle, can you reveal some information to me?"

Yihui also felt that this uncle might not be an ordinary person, and he always felt that he knew something.

The uncle waved his hand and said, "Even if you tell you, what if you can't beat it, you still can't beat it, don't bother thinking about it!"

As he spoke, he took two steps forward, pointing to a town not far away.

"My home lives there, a few minutes away, and I just have a few rooms vacated for some reason, so I'll lend them to you for the time being. ”

Yihui felt a little awkward, but after all, he had a request for others, and he just happened to get a good place to rest, so he didn't continue to ask.

"Uncle, my name is Wu Neng, you can just call me by my name. ”

"Okay, Uncle Wu Neng. ”

After a brief response to Wu Neng, Ikki prepared to follow him to Nibi City.

"Hey!! wait a minute!"

Before he had taken two steps, a somewhat familiar voice came from behind him.

Kazuki and Leolu turned their heads at the same time, and saw Ash as if he was in distress, and the young girl following him.

"Wait a minute, I've finally met someone, I want to ask...... Why are you here?"

Ikki is a little funny, although he doesn't know who this girl is, but he can still meet Ash after being behind for so many days, should he be said lucky or unlucky......

"I said you guy, can you be polite to others!"

The girl tugged at Ash's ears and dragged him aside, and the terrifying expression on her face instantly switched to an innocent smile.

"Uncle, can you tell us how to get to Nibi City?"

Wu Neng didn't answer, but asked Yihui instead.

"Your friend?"

Kazuki hesitated, but nodded.

"Hey......" Wu Neng sighed, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Forget it, who told the uncle to be in a good mood today, and there is still a spare room, so I will lend it to you first!"

He turned to the girl and said, "We are about to go to Nibi City, so come along." ”

"Really, thank you, uncle!"

The girl pulled Ash over again and thanked Wu Neng seriously.

Leo Lu tugged at Ikki.

[Let's go with them, just a little bit of care. 】

At this time, the girl found Leo Lu hiding behind Ikki, and she jumped over and hugged Leo Lu, who likes elves.

"Wow! Such a cute little elf, is it yours?"

Looking at the girl's eyes that were about to shoot light, Kazuki scratched his head a little embarrassed.

"Oh Xiaoxia! That elf is a friend of Kazuki's friends, don't think about it, he won't give it to you. ”

was actually guessed by Ash of his thoughts, Xiaoxia's face turned slightly red, put down Leo Road, turned around and gave Ash a punch.

"I didn't think so!

The girl named Xiaoxia was a little unbelievable, these two people didn't look like friends no matter how they looked at it, but he looked much more powerful than Ash, and his name was ...... Ikki? That's good.

"Count...... Let's get acquainted. ”

Kazuki looked at Ash with some embarrassment.

"Of course! we're very good friends!"

"I don't see it, it's your own dead face pestering people!"

"Who said that!" Of course, Ash couldn't admit Xiaoxia's words, and walked straight up to Ikki, "Ikki, you come and tell her if I rely on you!"

"This ......"

Wu Neng, who had been left out in the cold for a long time, coughed on the side.

"Do you want to go to Nibi City with your uncle?"

"Of course!

Yihui had the cover of Wu Neng, so it was logical to ask Xiao Zhi to leave, leaving him and Xiao Xia to continue to be angry.

Pikachu came to Leolu's side and rubbed Leo Lu affectionately.

"Picapi [Leo Lu I miss you so much, thank you for helping us that day, Leo Lu is the best!]"

Leo Lu shook his head and said, "Ou Lu! [This is the result of your efforts with him, I just dealt with it a little. How do you feel about this kid now?"

Pikachu was silent for a moment, then laughed.

"Pickup Pickup [Leo Lu is right, although he is a bit silly, but he is really my good friend. 】”

――――――――――――――――――――

Downtown Nibi City.

"Okay, this is the uncle's house, you can pick the vacant room inside. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Wu Neng!"

Xiaoxia immediately carried her backpack and rushed in first.

"Young people are so energetic! ha. ”

Wu Neng instructed Yihui: "Uncle, I'm going out to buy something, you can deal with it yourself, just don't break things." ”

"Uncle Wu Neng, I want to ask which direction the Daoist Pavilion is in?"

Yihui grabbed Wu Neng and asked seriously.

"Tsk, didn't you say that you are not Xiao Gang's opponent at all? stay for a few days and leave, improve your strength first and then come over!"

"If you don't try it, how do you know if it works!"

Yihui said to Wu Neng categorically, there was no room for negotiation.

"Even if you don't tell me, I'll ask others to know that this is my first gym tournament, and I don't want it to end like this. So please tell me. ”

Wu Neng rubbed his head. Are children so difficult to deal with nowadays?

"Okay, okay, you win. ”

Yihui saw that Wu Neng was finally willing to speak, and the serious expression that had been maintained for a long time also relaxed.

"Do you see the building over there? That's the Nibi Gym. Okay, I'm leaving, don't get me in trouble!"

With that, Wu Neng walked out quickly.

[Are you ready?]

Leo Lu walked out of the room. If it weren't for Xiao Gang's well-informed, he would have wanted to try it out. But since it's Ikki's gym competition, let's let him exercise more by himself.

"Well, I'm okay with Leolu, you'll have to cheer me on when the time comes!"

[It depends on how you behave]

"I'll definitely do my best!"

Ikki shook his fist vigorously in the direction of the gym.
