After finishing the boring indoctrination of basic theoretical knowledge, the reversal of basic combat concepts, and the combing of common sense content, Merlin and Ah Jiu immediately began the second phase of teaching, not actual combat, but to subdue a few fighting Pokémon for Ah Jiu.

It's been so long since Ah Jiu's wrist strength and Abby Lang have been subjected to the brainwashing/brain-blowing destruction of human fighting techniques that they have completely forgotten how to fight as a Pokémon and how to use their special moves as a Pokémon. The two of them are already two human fighters in Pokémon skins......

Reversing them back to normal will undoubtedly take a long time and a rather painful process. Merlin didn't plan to waste time on them, he decided to directly ask Ah Jiuxin to subdue a few wild fighting systems and cultivate them as his Pokémon companions in the true sense of the word. After Ah Jiu enters the hall of the trainer, he will slowly change the wrist strength that has basically adapted to fighting and even survival as a human and Abi Lang back to his original identity, or simply go back and continue like this. That's not Merlin's concern, though.

All Merlin had to worry about was where the martial arts system was nearby.

The distribution of fighting systems is the same as Pokémon with other attributes, which have a certain regionality. For example, there are several common fighting systems in Guandu, and the wrist force system likes to live in caves or tunnels, and there are generally a certain number of them distributed in the mountains. The monkey monster series prefers a certain density of forest areas, and a certain degree of openness is the best place to be around. As for Ballang, who can branch into Shavarang, Abbyron, and Koporang, he prefers to live in the valley, and his three evolutionary types also prefer to live in similar areas.

And near Sweet Wheat Town, there are monkey monsters and wrist strength. Therefore, after studying the distribution of wild Pokémon around him, Merlin initially set a goal for Ah Jiu to subdue - the highest possible level of fiery monkeys and Haoli, and the best case is, of course, to be able to subdue the strange power.

Merlin does not recommend that Ah Jiu start cultivating from the unevolved and lower level of Pokémon, first, because he does not have so much time to spend on him, and second, Ah Jiu does not have enough experience and skills to cultivate immature unevolved types and plan their final evolution and development path. He is more suitable for capturing higher-level evolutionary types that have precipitated and solidified through the growth period, and as long as they can be subdued, then they can quickly become reliable combat power. And because Ah Jiu himself is an excellent martial artist, fighting Pokémon don't have as many particulars or taboos as other attributes, so they can also get started quickly and adapt to each other.

"Ah Jiu, if you are allowed to fight hand-to-hand with wild fighting Pokémon, what are your chances of winning?" Before the official departure, Merlin asked a question to the scrappy old man Ah Jiu.

"Well, if it had been ten years ago, I would have told you that I had a ninety percent chance of winning, although I would inevitably have hung the lottery myself...... But, now, ......" Ah Jiu paused and thought for a while, "Five or five points?" And the odds of me getting hurt are pretty high......"

"That's right......," Merlin muttered for a while, "then it seems that the initial goal can't be set too high for you......"

At the beginning of its development, the goal of martial arts was to kill and defeat opponents, rather than the inexplicable attributes of physical fitness, self-cultivation, and competitive competition that were given by modern times. As a monster that was still the great enemy and biggest competitor of mankind in the not-so-distant past, it has always been an object that martial artists need to use their own physical bodies to compete with and strive to defeat. After all, there are too few human beings with considerable and actual combat power, such as superpowers. However, as a fighting art with a low entry barrier, it can cultivate a sufficient number of warriors to maintain the continuity of humanity itself.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

As a martial artist who is somewhat famous, but to accept the help of a superpower; As an old man who is over half a hundred years old, he wants to let a little ghost who has not even faded his fetal hair and the smell of milk has not dried. To say that Ah Jiu didn't have a little mustard in his heart, it was completely impossible. But under the premise of keeping the dojo and fulfilling his daughter's last wish, those little dirty things were ignored or endured by this old man.

However, when he saw Merlin galloping through the mountains and forests with his superpowers, commanding the burly and strong Electric Shock Beast and another tall and strong King Nido between groups of monkey monsters and fiery monkeys, he still felt a shock and a heartfelt sigh.

In the Gym, Merlin's easy defeat of him was not a surprise to Ah Jiu. He knows his own family. The strength of his own trainer is very low, not to mention any high-level and intermediate-level masters, even a rookie trainer with outstanding talent is very likely to catch his obvious flaws and give his Pokémon a fat beating. So defeat is a matter of course.

But when he watched Merlin and the two big guys gallop between the hordes of rampaging pigs and monkeys, he really realized Merlin's strength.

It's not that Ah Jiu hasn't tried to subdue some higher-level Pokémon, but with the power of his Pokémon, he can't defeat those higher-level wild Pokémon at all, and with his aging body, he is bound to be unable to subdue a Pokémon by his own means like when he was young. Although martial artists become more experienced as they get older, it is difficult for Ah Jiu, whose physical strength, speed, agility, and strength have plummeted as he grows older, to truly defeat a powerful martial arts team under fair conditions.

Therefore, when Ah Jiu saw the tragic situation of those difficult fiery monkeys struggling to survive a few rounds under the hands of the Electric Shock Beast or King Nido, he still couldn't help but feel envious and horrified. Even he had the heart to tell Merlin that he wanted one of the fiery monkeys. But looking at Merlin's dissatisfied, he didn't seem to think much of these pigs and monkeys that had come out.

So Ah Jiu had no choice but to follow behind dumbfounded, watching Merlin and the Electric Shock Beast and King Nido slaughter in all directions.

"Aren't there a few leaders of the pig monkey colony around here?" After watching the pigs and monkeys who were infused with blood pupils calmly chose to flee under the absolute strength gap, Merlin said to himself with some dissatisfaction: "Such a weak ......"

Hey, you seem a little too serious, don't you? Wizil woke up Merlin with his words, he was just helping the old guy find Pokémon, not for himself, don't you think your own standards are set a little too high?

"Uh......" Merlin remembered the purpose of his shot, "yes! My fault, my fault......" He shifted his gaze to the last group of fiery monkeys who were still fighting, "Then if you say that......" glanced at the fiery monkeys, and then looked back at Ah Jiu, "At this level, it seems to be okay, right?" ”

"Mr. Ah Jiu, you can try to play with one of them...... "Merlin said to Ah Jiu, "if you can suppress one of them with your own strength, then it will be the best." ”

"Ah......" Ah Jiu was stunned, "That, can't you let Mei Linjun you, you take them down, and then ......" Ah Jiu tentatively made his own little request.

"Huh?" Merlin's face suddenly became a little gloomy, and he turned his head to look at Ah Jiu, "Mr. Ah Jiu, what you just said, I didn't hear clearly......" There was an obvious displeasure and threat in his tone. Merlin helped Ah Jiu to subdue the fighting system, at most, to help him cut off the target's wings and partners, and create a one-on-one scene for him, and he would never violate his basic principles to subdue Pokémon, let alone help Ah Jiu subdue Pokémon. And Merlin himself felt that it was enough for him to do this in order to let Ah Jiu subdue a few Pokémon.

Ah Jiu choked for a while, Merlin had told Ah Jiu about his principles before leaving, so Ah Jiu would only have a hint of illusion and make a request that he didn't think was too much. But looking at Merlin's appearance, he knew that his request was still too much for Merlin.

"Then, then ......" Ah Jiu's gaze wandered between the group of fiery monkeys who had been trapped by the electric shock beast and King Nido, and soon locked on a slightly injured and already breathed disordered as his target, "That's it......"

Merlin glanced at the fiery monkey that Ah Jiu chose, and couldn't help but feel a little disdain for Ah Jiu in his heart, but he also understood Ah Jiu's bitterness in choosing this way. Shaking his head slightly, Merlin motioned for Monardo and Xander to join forces to release the tired fiery monkey, forcibly dispersing the remaining fiery monkeys.

It's been almost two years since he walked in Guandu, and Merlin is no longer the idealized teenager he was at the beginning, he knows that in the eyes of most humans, Pokémon are just inferior pets, playthings, and tools, and they are not worth too much human effort, too much investment, and they are not worth treating as equals. Even if humans are willing to give affection to Pokémon, it is basically a "charity" given by a condescending attitude, or a "gift" from the owner to the pet. They may not have the brutal thinking of the Rocket Corps that humans are only human supreme and humans can exploit, dominate, and enslave Pokémon at will, but their essence is not much different. Merlin doesn't have the power to change most people's perceptions and minds, he can only stick to his heart at best. Although he agrees with the Ideal Kingdom's ambition to establish an ideal land where humans and Pokémon can live in harmony, he also can't agree with their brutal and cruel methods. Merlin also sometimes found that some of his ideas were moving closer to the neutral line that the League adhered to...... Although he was not very willing, Merlin had to admit that in the current reality, the route held by the alliance was already a better choice for humans and Pokémon.

While Merlin was stunned, Ah Jiu also caught up with the tired fiery monkey and started a brutal fight with it.

An old man with a gray beard who was more than half a hundred years old, and a demonic beast with poor physical strength and being injured, roared and pounced on each other, and the battle became a ball.

Seeing Ah Jiu roaring and punching and flirting, the fiery monkey panted and waved his hand knife...... Merlin was once again lost in thought. From the perspective of human beings, Ah Jiu's acceptance of Pokémon in order to continue the dojo and the last wishes of the deceased is already considered a reason and even high-sounding. It's far more justified than the average trainer who takes it for fun, for the sake of power, or even for nothing. But from Pokémon's point of view, why does it have to lose its freedom and submit to the will of a human for the sake of a human who has nothing to do with it? Why is it that humans can imprison the rest of its life in the arena and fight at will?

There is no answer to this kind of question...... There is no right or wrong on either side......

"Perhaps, the only thing that is wrong is me......" Merlin whispered to herself. There was a little loneliness and exhaustion between the expressions.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Ah Jiu's fighting skills were still passable in the end, he tried his best to fight with the fiery monkey regardless of the damage, and finally subdued the angry pig monkey with his own strength, and successfully subdued it with his own treasure ball. When the cheapest red and white ball lay quietly among the grass, when Ah Jiu once again confirmed that he had completed the first subjugation in his life, he smiled, smiling like a child. Then he cried again, and the old tears were all over the place, and he couldn't cry silently.

Merlin didn't bother Ah Jiu's mood swings, he just flipped through the map to find the next place to take in.

After laughing and crying enough, Ah Jiu wiped the tears and blood stains on his old face indiscriminately, and quietly dealt with his injuries on the side. He was also beaten by the fiery monkey, although it was not to the point of embarrassment with a blue nose and swollen face, but he was also attacked a lot. After briefly dealing with his injuries, Ah Jiu stood up and walked to Merlin's side, waiting for his instructions.

"Alas......" sighed softly, Merlin put away his fluctuating emotions, and said to Ah Jiu, who looked very respectful: "Mr. Ah Jiu, let it out." You should bring the Pokémon I asked you to prepare, right? You can treat it yourself, so that you can increase the level of intimacy between you......"

Seeing Ah Jiu hurriedly pulling out the wound medicine from his arms, Merlin said again: "Cultivating Pokémon, taking them is only the first step, and it can even be said to be the easiest step. The second step is the most difficult and will last for a long time, and this step will continue until one of you leaves this world......" Merlin said solemnly to Ah Jiu, "get along with Pokémon, make you close to each other, let you develop a tacit understanding with each other, and let you build a relationship with each other...... These things need to be done by yourself, and it takes time to do it little by little, and there is nothing to be opportunistic...... Your original Pokémon have been professionally bred by the Humans, and they will be unconditionally obedient to the command of humans, but their cold hearts will never be open to humans...... Try, try to be friendly with them......"

Ah Jiu nodded, pursed his mouth tightly, and didn't know what he was thinking.

released the fiery monkey that had been subdued by himself, and Ah Jiu tentatively made contact with it. The fury and mania of the Pig Monkey Pokémon are well known even if they are not trainers, and Ah Jiu can't help but be a little afraid. Fighting it may not make him scared, but getting along with it ......

Ah Jiu glanced at the slightly narrowed eyes of the fiery monkey and saw the hostility and hidden anger in its eyes. When he subconsciously wanted to stagger his eyes, Ah Jiu's heart suddenly surged with great courage, he firmed his gaze, and gradually touched the body of the fiery monkey with his right hand.

The fiery monkey didn't beat him, and I don't know if it was because he really didn't have the physical strength to continue fighting, or because he reluctantly agreed with Ah Jiu's status. In short, the fiery monkey just kept a straight face in the process of Ah Jiu healing it, and his face was not very happy, but his actions were very cooperative, and he did not hurt people.

Merlin, who saw this scene, was also somewhat comforted in his heart.

"Mr. Ah Jiu, is your physical strength and strength enough to sustain another battle?" After Ah Jiu finished dealing with the injury of the fiery monkey and put it back into the ball, Merlin opened his mouth and asked, "If it's okay, I think we'd better hurry up and do the next game......

"No need, Merlin-kun......" Ah Jiu stood up suddenly, "No need, really no need......" He turned around and looked down at Merlin, "It's enough to have it, I still have wrist strength, and Abby Lang, it's enough to have the three of them." ”

Merlin looked at the old man who was looking down on him condescendingly, and wondered why he suddenly became so proud.

"I think I understood, I think I caught ......" Ah Jiu looked at Merlin eagerly, "Pokémon, Pokémon...... I think I can start the battle course, so that's it! ”

Merlin was stunned again.
