Chapter 90: Disciple
"You're the little boy in Sunshine back then? Brown hair, blue eyes, well, it's all the same ...... back then."
Carefully looking at Tuohai's appearance, Ah Ju, who had been unwavering before, couldn't help but show an embarrassed look on his face.
Who would have thought that a seed that he planted at random back then would actually see it grow today, and he saw it when he had almost forgotten about it!
If it weren't for the fact that this young man took out this kunai and reminded himself, Ah Ju felt that even if he and this young man went all the way to the Light Red Dao Pavilion, I am afraid that he would not think about it.
Jumping out of the memories, Ah Jucai regained his usual serious expression, and couldn't help but smile dumbly when he thought of Takuha's previous actions.
"If I hadn't recognized this bitterness just now, I'm afraid this young man wouldn't have taken the initiative to say what happened back then......
"Let's cook first, it's getting dark, and you can talk to me about you when you have time."
Looking up at the already dim sky, Ah Ju said lightly to Tuohai, but there was a hint of closeness in his tone.
"Hmm!"
Nodding heavily, Takuhai Ma, disguised as a good baby, began to disembowel, discarded the internal organs, washed it with water, took the sharpened branch handed over by Ah Ju, and roasted it on the bonfire.
An hour later, he tore a fragrant rabbit leg for Ah Ju, and Tuohai himself ripped off a rabbit leg that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and filled his stomach with dry food.
After eating nearly half a rabbit leg, Ah Ju asked Takumi about him.
Takumi, who had already thought of his words when preparing dinner, told his experience seven points of truth and three points of falsehood, causing Ah Ju to nod from time to time.
Leave the orphanage, join a group of delinquent boys, accidentally get the baby egg of the six tails, embark on the path of trainer with the help of Meisa and Marsha, and challenge the gym......
Takumi selectively told his previous experience, mainly those things that could be found out with easy investigation, and the things about the 'system', such as the subjugation of Six Tails and Da Da Duck, were all made up as a story.
"Six Pokémon, yes, yes, it's not easy for a newcomer who has just set off, especially if you're still ......on your own."
Ah Ju now has a better and better impression of Tuohai, and he thought he was just a newcomer to Team Rocket, but he found that he had such a relationship with him, and the boy's own performance was also good.
Surprises came one after another, and Ah Ju suddenly thought of the key point that made him pay attention to Tuohai's child, and asked with great interest.
"How's your throwing skills now?"
Snickering in his heart, Tuohai showed a slightly smug look on the surface, and casually picked up some branches and gravel from all around, and piled them in front of Ah Ju, but he took out a black box containing glass balls.
Raising his eyebrows, Ah Ju felt quite interesting in his heart, and Takuhai's action was to tell him, "Throwing skills? Test me as you please! ”
He took a thick branch from in front of him, and threw it upwards with all his might, but he didn't even look at it, but instead stared at Takumi's actions with a smile.
Almost at the moment when the branch in Ah Ju's hand just left his hand, Takumi, who had already taken out a glass ball from the black wooden box, also shot quickly.
There was no need to use his eyes to judge whether Takumi had hit or not, and the slight impact sound coming from the air was enough for a ninja master like Ah Ju to judge.
Extremely quickly grabbed and threw on the ground, this time it was a small pebble thrown out by Ah Ju, and it was not thrown straight to the top of his head.
Bite!
The crisp sound of impact came into Ah Ju's ears, Ah Ju's eyes showed a look of surprise, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to praise Takuha, Ah Ju saw Takumi grinning at him, grabbed two glass balls from the wooden box with his left hand, and threw them towards the darkness around the campfire.
And immediately after, Takumi's right hand also grabbed two glass balls and threw them into the night sky.
Ding~Ding~
Two crisp crashing sounds sounded from the night almost in no particular order, and Ah Ju jumped up directly from the ground at this time, a pair of black eyes staring at Takumi, and the black eyes seemed to be shining under the reflection of the bonfire.
"With a calm mindset, great throwing talent, and good trainer talent, I seem to have found a piece of ......"
In his memory, the scene of handing over the kunai to this child flashed in his mind again, and Ah Ju couldn't help but sigh in his heart The wonder of 'fate'.
"Takuha, would you like to join the Light Red Dao Pavilion and become my disciple?"
"Clams?"
Originally, he just wanted to show his talent and see if he could get closer to Ah Ju, Tuohai was stunned for a moment.
……
In the swamp, Takumi, who tied two planks to the soles of his shoes, followed behind Ah Ju, who was also dressed in the same way, hanging his hands and looking respectful.
"Teacher, how long does it take to get from here to the Light Red Gym?"
Last night, Ah Ju's sudden invitation made Tuo Hai a little stunned, and it took a few seconds to react, and he gave Ah Ju an apprenticeship on the spot.
A Heavenly King-level figure wants to accept himself as a disciple, and Tuohai really can't think of any reason for him to refuse.
It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and Tuohai naturally knows such a simple truth.
Why can Ji Ye travel all the way easily? It's not that there is a Dr. Oki standing behind him to rely on!
Not to mention anything else, just in terms of Pokémon breeding, if Chi Ye didn't have the many Pokémon that Oki's research institute gave him as a logistics base, would Ji Ye be ready to teleport all Pokémon to his home?
The deviant train of thought in Tuohai's mind was pulled back by Ah Ju's voice, and when he saw his new disciple, Ah Ju, who had changed the relationship between the two, decisively showed his side as a strict teacher.
"If we get out of this swamp and go directly into the mountains instead of going to the Light Red City, we will be able to reach the Light Red Dao Hall in about three days."
"However, you have to remember that as my 727th disciple, after entering the dojo, you must humbly learn from your senior brothers and sisters, and don't be blind to your small achievements because of your little talent!"
"Got it?!"
With a grim face, Tuohai said in a deep voice.
"Disciple understands."
Looking at the young and old Tuohai, Ah Ju is still quite satisfied in his heart, there are many talented people, but there are very few who are talented and can maintain a calm mind at the same time, but his newly accepted disciple happens to be one of these few people.
While listening to Ah Ju explain to himself from time to time the things in the Light Red Dao Pavilion, part of Takumi's energy couldn't help but drift to other places.
Last night, after Ah Ju accepted his apprenticeship with a smile on his face, Tuohai learned about the scale of Ah Ju's disciples from Ah Ju's mouth, and he was immediately speechless.
I thought that if he became a disciple of Ah Ju, he would be supported by a lot of resources from the owner of the Light Red Dao Pavilion, so that he could grow up quickly.
As a result, as soon as he heard the number of Ah Ju's disciples, Takuha's idea was instantly shattered.
Without him, in an organization with a large number of people, fair rules are always the most important!
Especially after Tuohai heard Ah Ju say that his daughter, as well as his sister, were all one of his disciples, Tuohai was even more sure that he could not directly get Ah Ju's resources.
The resources of the Light Red Daoist Pavilion are limited, and if you want to get more resources, you must have a performance that others can't refute, so that Ah Ju, who is the embodiment of justice and majesty in the eyes of the disciples of the Daoist Gym, can tilt resources towards him and focus on cultivation.
"So, what should your Pokémon trainer look like? Or rather, what kind of trainer do you want to be? ”
Takuha, who had been listening to Ah Ju's words, suddenly frowned, thinking about Ah Ju's question, which was very likely to be a thorough investigation of him.
If the answer to this question does not meet Ah Ju's mind, although Ah Ju will not say anything, Tuohai's good impression score in Ah Ju's heart before will definitely be reduced a lot.
On the contrary, if the answer to this question is in line with Ah Ju's mind, he can improve his evaluation in Ah Ju's heart, not to mention any substantive rewards, but what are the benefits in the future, Tuohai's name will naturally appear in Ah Ju's heart......
How to answer that?
Takumi's right thumb rubbed his chin lightly, and his brain spun with all his might.
Seeing Tuohai's appearance, Ah Ju didn't make a sound to urge, and still walked forward step by step with Tuohai.
Protect the people, eradicate evil, and maintain world peace?
This idea just came to mind, and he was thrown into the swamp beneath him by Takumi.
The person next to him has now joined Team Rocket, the largest evil organization in the Guandu region, and he has also become an official member of Team Rocket......
Poison is everything, I want to be a drug trainer like you, teacher?
It is naturally not wrong to pat Ah Ju's sycophants, but maybe he will brand himself with a sleek and unassertive label in Ah Ju's heart, which is also not what Takumi wants to see.
After thinking about it again and again, Takumi finally said in a deep voice according to his own thoughts.
"Strength! I want to be a strong trainer! ”
"Only strong strength is the foundation of everything, other ideals and pursuits are based on strength, otherwise it is the moon in the water, and it will be broken if you poke it!"
Secretly glanced at Ah Ju's expression, but that serious face made Takumi unable to see any of Ah Ju's thoughts at all.
After a few seconds, Ah Jucai continued to ask in a voice that could not hear joy and sorrow.
"So what do you think is a strong trainer?"
Following the previous train of thinking of answering the question by himself, Takumi said word by word.
"Excellent Pokémon, strong in their own strength, excellent sense of battle, teacher, forgive the disciple for his shallow knowledge, I can only think of these three points."
"Hahaha...... If you can understand these three points, you are already more than eighty percent of your senior brothers and sisters. Tuohai, you are really a good disciple sent to me by heaven! ”
Ah Ju's smile was very happy, and his face also showed a look of satisfaction, which also made Tuohai finally let go of his heart.
