Early the next morning, Jisuke woke up as usual.

When he came to the gym at the Pokémon Center to exercise, he saw ......

"Ayase?"

"I knew it." Ayase walked towards Kesuke, "You still got up so early. ”

Fierce man touched his head.

He didn't know what Ayase was trying to say.

At this time, the daze is over.

"Okay, don't bother you, I'll go back." Ayase waved at Kesuke and walked past him, "Don't forget today's fight. ”

"I'm so sleepy......"

Even though Ayase's voice was small, Jisuke still heard her words.

So......

What the hell is she here for?

Yaksuke didn't understand it at all.

Shaking his head, Yakuzuke began today's workout.

On the morning of getting up normally, Yaksuke and Ayase met again.

The two of them are at the front desk together and retrieve their Pokémon from Miss Joy.

By the way, I rented a battle arena in the backyard of Pokémon Center.

Rented, it was an entire backyard, a fighting arena, not a piece.

The money was made by Ayase.

Thinking of the other party's family background, he didn't say much.

No way, this is the eldest lady of the richest family in the Johto area, although the murderer has a mine at home, but someone else's family is a diamond mine.

Jisuke took Kirino and Ruri, followed behind Ayase, and walked towards the backyard of the Pokémon Center.

The arena in the backyard of Pokémon Center has been cleared.

Those familiar men in black, Kesuke, seem to have returned to the time when they first met Ayase last year.

Ayase looked back to the murderer embarrassedly and said, "This...... Even if I was traveling 'alone', my family still didn't feel at ease. ”

Jisuke nodded: "Understandable. ”

If Jisuke didn't have his ability, he wouldn't be like he is now, running wherever there is big news.

Ayase was a little disappointed by Kesuke's answer, turned back, lowered her head and continued walking.

All the way to the other side of the battlefield.

There are also rules for the battlefield behind Pokémon Center.

A normal Pokémon center has at least one area the size of a standard battlefield land.

Pokémon Centers in cities with Gyms are made in pairs with four standard field-sized areas, except in exceptional circumstances.

There are also some important cities that will be larger.

And the Pokémon Center in Hinoki Town is the specification of the Pokémon Center where the standard gym is located.

There are four opposing battlefields.

However, because Ayase has covered the entire backyard of the Pokémon Center, this should actually be considered "a battlefield with four times the size of the normal battlefield field".

The distance between Ayase and Jisuke is also twice as long as normal.

Ayase, who discovered this, inexplicably regretted her previous impulse.

Jisuke stands at the trainer's site.

Kirino sat on the bench behind him, like a coach.

Ayase is on the other side.

All around, there was a human wall of black-clad people, blocking out the other trainers.

Some of these are trainers who have been training or fighting on the battlefield before, and some of them are onlookers who have smelled the smell of the event.

Of course, there was no trouble.

As natives of the Johto area, they recognize the meaning of the insignia on the men in black.

But the appearance of Ayase and Yaksuke still caused a heated discussion among a group of people.

The beautiful girl and the little handsome guy appeared at the same time, and the masses were sorry for themselves if they didn't gossip.

Of course, they all secretly think about it themselves, and they dare not say it.

Misfortune comes from the mouth, and this is a truth that most people know.

They were talking about things at the level of trainers.

Like what......

"That girl, it seems that she was the one who successfully challenged the Hinoki Gym a few days ago, right?"

"It seems to be. After all...... The Hinoki Gym is already one of the worst in the Johto area. In recent years, there have been many more challenges. ”

"But not as much as this year."

"That's just as well. There are a little too many people coming this year. There are many other regions. ”

"Kanto?"

"Kanto is also considered other regions? All next to each other, right? I'm talking about other regions that are farther away, much farther away. ”

"I said I haven't seen a lot of Pokémon Center trainers' Pokémon recently, and at first I thought it was a newly discovered Pokémon in the Johto area, but it turned out to be another region."

"What do you think? Scold. However, it would be nice if the Hinoki Gym was as powerful as it was in the past, and it would definitely teach these trainers from other regions a lesson, so that they should not underestimate our Johto region, but now, they can only let the gym trainers from other gyms come. The current owner of Hinoki Gym...... Alas. ”

"Yes. The current juniper dojo is far inferior compared to the past. ”

"Did you succeed in your challenge?"

"Ahem...... It's coming, it's coming. When I accept a fire-type Pokémon, I will definitely be able to succeed in the challenge. Look at that girl, isn't it just a fire-type Pokémon in one hand, so she finally succeeded in the challenge? ”

"Conquer fire-type Pokémon? Just the wounded green caterpillar you 'picked up' in the grass outside 'that forest'? You're thinking too much. ”

Speaking of "that forest", a group of people around suddenly felt that the temperature had plummeted and it was a little cold.

One of the people who had been staring at Ayase said, "You say, she went to the forest yesterday, did she ......?"

"She went to the forest too?"

"Nonsense. How many of the trainers who came to Hinoki Town weren't there for it? ”

Silence again.

"It's not easy to come back alive, how can you ......," said one person with a reluctant smile.

"But last night someone saw with their own eyes that when she came out of the forest last night and went to the Pokémon Center, she had a very satisfied expression on her face."

"It should ...... Won't it......"

Someone shook his head: "Anyway, we should know later." ”

"Let's focus on the fight. With such a big posture, if the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, it will be a shame. "Someone was ready to gloat.

Then, he found that the man in black in front of him had turned his gaze.

His eyes were cold, as if he was going to tear him apart.

He quickly closed his mouth and changed his position to watch the battle again.

On the other side, a man in black next to him handed him a walkie-talkie.

Ayase had just gone so fast that she had forgotten to discuss the rules with the murderer.

It's impossible to get her to come back, that's the only way.

"Hey, Shosuke, can you hear me?" Ayase's voice came over the intercom.

"Yaksuke received, repeated, Yaksuke received. Come to an end. The murderer replied solemnly.

Ayase's laughter came from inside the walkie-talkie, and it didn't stop for a long time.

Yakusuke looked at Ayase in the distance and laughed wildly.

"Hug, I'm sorry." It took a while for Ayase to recover.

"It's fine." Shosuke shook his head, and then asked, "What are the rules of the battle?" ”

For the murderer, now, the battle is the most important thing.

There was silence on the other side, and it seemed that he heard a sigh, and he didn't know if he heard it wrong, or if it was just the sound of the other party's breathing.

"Well, one-on-one." Ayase said.

"One-on-one? No problem. Jisuke nodded.

One-on-one, he naturally chooses......

"It's not just a one-on-one." On the intercom, Ayase continued, "It's six one-on-one. ”

Six one-on-one? Alternative all-hands battles?

Jisuke smiled slightly: "Of course, no problem. ”
