There should be only one one member of the quicksand team called the boss.

In the past, Kashiwagi thought so.

But now he knew that Cang Shiro, the highest cadre in charge of the sand group, was also called the boss by the people below, not the team leader.

The problem is serious.

Don't look at it as just a title, but it seems to imply something like "the lord of the lord is not my lord".

He hoped that he was thinking too much, but the more he looked deeper, the more he felt that the ship of the quicksand team was crumbling and could capsize at any time......

I hope that the former quicksand team is alive and well.

The fox-like man led the cypress inside, and when he reached an elevator, he suddenly turned his head and said, "My name is Liuge." ”

"Hello."

Kashiwagi replied softly, paying attention to Coco Dora out of the corner of her eye, and was relieved to see that it was just looking curiously at the metalwork around it.

Pokémon are beings with humanoid intelligence, but often their sanity is not enough to suppress their instincts - the tyrannical instinct, the reproductive instinct, and the eating instinct.

Although he fed Coco Dora before he came out, if he was faced with so many iron tools, he would be in trouble if he didn't hold back his desire to rush over and nibble on two bites.

Liuge pressed the switch, and the elevator started and slowly fell downward.

He glanced at the cypress and the extremely well-behaved Coco Dora, who was squatting close to his ankle, and opened his mouth to ask:

"You brought it out of the testing ground?"

"Well, I thought it was also a kind of fate, so I tried to accept it."

"Where's the one that the team distributed?"

"It's a monetary subsidy, and I'm worried that I won't have experience in cultivating it for the first time."

"Hey...... You're pretty self-aware, there are a lot of people who get the first Pokémon and then immediately want to get the second one, but they can't take care of either of them. He pulled out a smile.

Squeak.

Elevator to the end.

A huge and vast underground space suddenly appeared in front of the cypress wood, with various simple tin houses layered on top of each other, illuminated by colorful neon lights, steel columns running through the upper and lower levels, and discarded iron boxes and barbed wire fences scattered everywhere.

It's like a slum in some sci-fi games.

[Dungeon].

The dark side of Huangtie Town, the heaven of the violent gangs, the hell of the poor. If there is a non-existent police station on the surface, then the dungeon is completely a violent group.

Whoever has the biggest fist will follow his rules.

Kashiwagi hasn't been here a few times, because it's dangerous and unnecessary, and he's not the kind of character who loves to die since he was a child.

And when he stepped forward to look around, Liuge next to him pushed the glasses on the tip of his nose, "I like rational people, if you don't mind, follow me, right?" ”

"Huh?"

Kashiwagi was stunned for a moment, and was about to say something, when the person who greeted him to report yesterday came over.

"Oooo Ryūga-sama! Good morning! ”

The man's eyes widened, and he stood straight and saluted.

"Good morning, too." Liuge waved his hand and turned his head to look at Kashiwagi who was surprised, "As you can see, I am a cadre of the sand group, and I am recruiting new people." ”

"I was rude just now—"

"Huh! Don't say those useless, the boss is still waiting for you, go ahead. Liuge pushed him on the shoulder.

Kashiwagi had no choice but to follow the man, and continued to walk in with Coco Dora.

The highest cadre in the quicksand team is the cadre, that is, the squadron leader, who is in charge of ten squads, and one team is ten people, in other words, Liuge is the leader of a hundred full members.

There is such a young cadre in the sand group?

He pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered the gossip about the Sand Group that someone had told him a few days ago, about a man who inherited his dead father's position and defeated all those who disobeyed him in just one month.

I'm afraid it's this one.

It's a lot better than him at the beginning, but it's great to be able to do that.

Liuge, who lost his backer, must have been in a difficult situation at that time.

"Hey, you're familiar with Liuge-sama?"

The Pathfinder interrupted his thoughts.

"No, I just met, and I had the pleasure of chatting a few words." Kashiwagi shook his head, not at all intending to pull the tiger skin banner. On the contrary, he was a little worried that he would be hated if he was too rude just now.

- This kind of thing is so common in Huang Tiezhen that one of his colleagues forgot to salute the official members and was punished.

He stealthily glanced around, there were not many people in the dungeon, and the occasional one was just silently watching.

It's just that unlike the jealous and playful gazes on land, most of these gazes are curious and friendly.

The few whispers were inaudible, but they didn't seem to be a bad word.

"Then you're super lucky, Lord Liuge rarely takes the initiative to invite others, and their team has good welfare and a good atmosphere." There is no lack of envy in the eyes of the leader.

Kashiwagi smiled politely, "Thank you so much, brother, I wouldn't have come today without your reminder." ”

"Hahahaha, the young man's mouth is quite sweet, go ahead, the boss is inside."

The leader patted him on the back and pointed to a tin house directly ahead.

There was a constant ear-popping music and a muffled bang, like beating something, which was quite terrifying.

Kashiwagi turned his head to look at Coco Dora, and when he saw that his face was as usual, he walked in slowly.

As soon as you enter the door, your eyes suddenly open up.

He found himself in what resembled a boxing ring, with a huge octagonal cage, shiny incandescent lights, and screens with video footage.

The loudspeakers around played loud and exciting music, like a lively game scene.

However, there are no spectators in the boxing ring.

There was only a strong man who was almost two meters tall and a majestic monster, both of whom stood in the octagonal cage and swung their fists at each other or dodged. Even though they were all wearing gloves, the muffled sound of the punches was still very scary.

Kashiwagi watched for half a minute, and then saw the strange force suddenly punch the strong man's abdomen, and the latter spat out the bloody and saliva mixed toothguards, and knelt on the ground gasping non-stop.

“……”

He tugged at the corners of his mouth and glanced at the monster force opposite, who stood still and raised his chin in the direction of the strong man.

An expression of what are you waiting for, and you can't come up to help.

Kashiwagi had no choice but to turn over and climb up, help the strong man who was out of breath to the corner, and hand a towel to feed him.

The strong man accepted it one after another but didn't look at him the whole time, and didn't raise it until he was breathing evenly, revealing a pair of fierce eyes, and said, "Who allowed you to go to the ring?" ”

Out of the corner of Kashiwagi's eyes, he glanced at the strange force of turning his head to the side, his fists resting on the back of his head and whistling, "...... Quicksand team rules. ”

The strong man frowned, "Huh? How come I don't know what the rules are? ”

"As a team member, you must protect the boss as soon as possible." The cypress complexion was as usual.

"Humph!"

The strong man sneered and removed the fist gloves in his hand, "Sharp teeth." Wear it and fight it for a round, and if you hold it up, I'll spare you for going on stage casually. ”

“…… All right. ”

Kashiwagi indifferently picked up the gloves, feeling quite helpless.

When it came to this, he didn't understand that he was trapped, but he really didn't expect that the top cadre would play this kind of careful thinking, let's be straightforward. Sure enough, it was wrong to listen to the wind comments.

Embarrassingly, he has absolutely no right to refuse.

No matter whether the other party is good or malicious, this feeling of being involuntary and unable to say no is terrible.

"This leg is just right."

He twisted his right leg, and a round is usually three minutes, but with the intensity of the attack shown by the strange force just now, it is a question whether he can survive ten seconds.

Directly opposite.

Strange Force waved his fist and made a whirring sound of breaking wind, and there was no trace of guilt on his face, only a cruel smile.

But just as it was about to get closer, a silver figure suddenly stood between the two.

"Goo!"

Coco Dora growls in warning against the monster.

"Ahh I'm so stupid, I forgot about you in a panic. ”

Kashiwagi squatted down in annoyance and patted Coco Dora's head, "It's okay, go and wait for me below, it'll be over soon." ”

"Goo!"

Coco Dora turned around and screamed solemnly.

It's as if to say that the strange force is dangerous and shouldn't be fought hard.

If only I could say no......

Kashiwagi was about to persuade again, when suddenly there was a terrible sound of breaking wind overhead, as if some kind of object was approaching at a rapid speed!

Call!

Punch missed!

Strange Force unexpectedly turned his head to look at Kashiwagi who had rolled to the side, who was holding Cocodora in his arms, his face serious and his brow furrowed.

"Is there anyone on the stage who has nothing to do with it, has it already begun?"

"Huh!"

Strange force smiled and hooked his hands.

The strong man who drank water in the corner opened his mouth and said, "It lets the two of you go together, and it's cheap for you." ”
