Afternoon. Since Himemia's spaceship was not crashed like in the original plot. As a result, Citron began to study how to remove the hunting wristbands from Polkenion and Ash.

"Do you have to wait a day......" Kashiwagi thought boredly. He desperately wanted Jarvis to come over so he could get rid of it in one wave, but it seemed like the guys needed to prepare a little more.

I had to go and play with Ash first. Inside the grotto with a wide view. Citron was trying to separate the wristband with a chainsaw, but the thing was so hard that he couldn't see the gears even if he had lost it.

"That's tricky......" he gripped his glasses a little tangled. Polkenion glanced at Kashiwagi who was coming over, and said telepathically, "Can you do it?" Blow it up, as I said—"

"Wouldn't that be dangerous? Let me think of a way again! Citron frowned in thought.

"Shhhh Not useful! Polkenion was still so unforgiving, making several people present a little embarrassed and speechless.

Kashiwagi sat down on a protruding rock and beckoned to Pikachu. Meet Ash and his party. One of the things he wanted to do most was to ravage this electrical fat rat...... No, it's dear Leather God.

When I watched the anime, I thought it was cute. It's cuter to actually see it.

"Pickup?" Pikachu shook his big ears, not quite understanding what he meant, and stepped forward curiously but was hugged by a handful,

"Pickup!" It panicked slightly, and a small electric current came out of the electrical bag. But soon he was immersed in someone's very skilled professional craft.

Getting along with Mikkeli and Adam, two top coordination trainers, not only Pokémon have grown up, but also Kashiwagi.

If his original massage techniques were intermediate, after Adam's training, he had already entered the pinnacle of advanced level!

Just a pickup super, no problem!

"Pika~~" Pikachu's delicate cry caught Ash's attention.

"Kashiwagi-san, does it turn out that you can even get a Pokémon massage?" He looked at Kashiwagi in amazement. Although everyone has eaten and seen it, but as a battle fool, Ash's logistics ability is basically equal to zero, and the lunch made by Sun Moon almost poisoned himself.

Pokémon massage is such a thing, and most of the people in Ash's memory are particularly powerful breeders.

"Coordination trainers, everyone who should know how to do it should know a little. And you can just call me cypress, everyone is quite familiar, so you don't need to be so polite. Kashiwagi smiled in response, his index finger circling Pikachu's electric sac, and the latter's tail twitched in a pleasant lightning, and both front paws couldn't help but clench his fingers.

"Pickup ~ Chirp~"

"Hahahaha, is it so comfortable, Pikachu?" Ash looked at the happy Pikachu with novelty and sighed, "Great. ”

"Pika~" Throughout the links where Pikachu was touched by people from all walks of life, there were rough and gentle, and in most cases, it would cause him to have to snatch it back and be electrocuted.

There are only a handful of scenes like this that Pikachu can enjoy. made Ash a little relaxed, and the expressions of the two were quite kind of you and I was happy.

Well...... With their tacit understanding, it may not be impossible to empathize. Just thinking about it like this, Kashiwagi Rua Pikachu's mind became a lot, and he let it go after two more massage cycles.

"Pickup~~" Pikachu who landed on the ground moved his tail to stretch his muscles, and suddenly, there was a slight sense of rebirth.

Massage is just that. To the greatest extent, it relieves the fatigue accumulated in the Pokémon body, so that the body can get a better state and subsequent growth, such as athletes training for a day to soak in ice water and relax with a fascia knife.

"Closing the fist" is for the better

"Punch out". Kashiwagi looked at Polkenion, who had been quietly watching since just now,

"Do you want to try it?"

"Not unusual." Polkenion turned his head and added, "Don't come near me, be careful to blow you up!" "This guy is really unforgiving.

He shook his head. But to be honest, Polkenion's [Steam Explosion] does have two hits, and as long as there is enough water stored in the body, it shouldn't be a big problem to blow up a mountain at once.

The key is that it does not distinguish between friend and foe, once it explodes 360 degrees without dead ends, it once has a psychological shadow after blowing up a mountain, and it still does not dare to live with other wild Pokémon.

Choose to stay in this cavern and watch over them. Chatted with Ash for a while. Kashiwagi saw that Citron was really tortured, and said in a loud voice: "Since the props at hand can't work, try to borrow the power of Pokémon?" ”

"The power of Pokémon? Polymon 2? Citron was stunned for a moment, looked at the Pokémon playing below, and suddenly shouted, "I understand!" Thank you! Cedar! He ran away excitedly.

Ash was still out of the situation, and said suspiciously: "What does Citron understand?" Polkenion stared at the scene below, and after a long time, said in a complex and emotional tone, "I didn't expect to see a friendly relationship between humans and Pokémon here. "If it hadn't been forced to, it wouldn't have brought that many humans here.

Outcome...... It's much better than expected. But that didn't make Porkenion happy, on the contrary, it had a deeper apprehension.

"The Pokémon here have all been hurt by humans, right?" Ash's face was sad, and Pikachu in his arms wasn't very comfortable.

Polkenion nodded,

"Hmm."

"You too?" Ash asked softly. This question directly stunned Polkenion for a moment, and after a few seconds, he said casually: "My business doesn't matter." An unspeakable expression.

Ash smiled kindly, his EQ was always ridiculously high when facing Pokémon, and he knew very well what to ask and what not to ask.

Then. Kashiwagi asked, "Are you going to protect them like this for the rest of your life?" ”

“…… What the future, who knows? Polkenion turned his head sideways, and Ash on the side also looked over, curious to see what he wanted to say.

"It's true that the future is unclear, but some things are predictable." Kashiwagi pointed to Majiyana below and said, "Everything that has happened these days, what you have seen and heard when you walk out of the Nibel Plateau should make you understand.

"You alone can't protect Majiyana." He looked at Polkenion and said slowly: "There are not only bad guys in this world, but also people like Ash, who simply love all kinds of Pokémon and hope to subdue them. And these people must be interested in you and Majiana.

"Is the Nibel Plateau really that safe? Can the white fog outside really drive away all the outsiders? If that were the case, Majiana wouldn't have been taken captive. ”

"Kashiwagi ......" Ash wanted to say something. Polkenion interjected, "What the hell are you trying to say?" ”

"What I want to say is that in this world, it is impossible to protect what is dear to you by mind and alone, and it will be too late until someone else takes Majiyana away and plucks her soul out of her body!" Kashiwagi raised his voice slightly,

"There is an old saying in human beings, it is called only a thousand days to be a thief, there is no thousand days to prevent thieves. You are indeed very powerful, but there are more Pokémon and humans in the world who are more powerful than you! Can you beat them all? He had no coveting of Porkenion and Majiana, but he did not want to see them again and be persecuted and separated by others.

Not all trainers are like him and Ash who voluntarily give up on Pokémon when they find themselves reluctant.

The huge steam Pokémon's eyes moved, obviously listening to the words, but in the end, he twisted his head and said with an urn voice: "...... Those things have nothing to do with you. "It walked towards the cave with the hot spring next door.

"Polkenion!" Ash shouted, of course he was also to Kashiwagi

"Alarmist" has a bit of an opinion, but it is really hurtful to give such a reaction when it is obviously a concern,

"Kashiwagi, Polkanyon it-"

"Pickup ......"

"It's okay, if it's so easy to be moved, I will think it's not very reliable." Kashiwagi waved his hand and watched as Ash was forced to leave with Polkenion.

Pikachu took two steps and turned his head to look.

"Pickup."

"Go, I'll go down too." He waved again. Polkenion's hostility towards humans didn't build up overnight, and it wasn't easy to see so many wild Pokémon being tortured by humans and suffering from their various actions, and still being able to communicate peacefully with them.

As for looking forward and the like, it was too far ahead of its time to make a detailed judgment, and it felt distraught before going to the hot springs.

When you take a bath, you can think about philosophy. Presumably, soaking in the hot springs can also make Porkenyon think calmly.

All in all. Polkenyon is not the kind of stubborn Pokémon who can't say anything at all, his mouth may be a little broken, but his heart is definitely extraordinarily kind.

It's just guilty of the same disease as some humans – not seeing the coffin and not shedding tears. Kashiwagi didn't plan to become a saint like N, but he didn't want to be discouraged by a cold remark that was probably unintentional, and gave up helping these poor Pokémon.

"I'm back!" In the distance, Hitron's cry could be heard, and behind him was a roentgen cat with a green slime-like dissolving beast on his head,

"Huh? Ash: What about them? ”

"Next door, let's go." He pointed in the direction and jumped straight from the hole, his strong body and the protective power of the lava suit allowed him to easily take a shortcut to land.

Citron poked his head out of the cave and looked at the running away cypress with a horrified expression,

"Can you go down so high? Kashiwagi-san is too weird, isn't it? —back to where you were. Sarina is sewing clothes for Ash, and her serious appearance makes it unbearable to bother.

Princess Himea liaises with her secretary on the airship, trying to keep track of her brother, Jarvis and others, but the secretary is not a professional intelligence officer and can provide little information.

It made her sigh. Kashiwagi is actually very curious, as a princess of a country with a certain degree of autonomy under the alliance system, Ji Meiya has no reliable trainer subordinates under him?

Strictly speaking. Jarvis, the minister, is also quite shabby, just the two of them, looking at the miscellaneous fish on their faces.

"Big brother! You've got a Pokémon that's gone! Yurika came running from a distance, her head on her head

The winter rat of "na, na, na, na, no

"Which one?"

"The kid with a triangular head that can hide two smaller Pokémon!"

"Oh, it's normal, it's more introverted and doesn't like to be in front of other people." Kashiwagi responded casually and asked, "Where is Xiao Soft?" ”

"Basking in the sun over there!" Yureika pointed to a large rock in the distance, on which Z1 was resting, as if photosynthesizing.

He leaned in.

"Poof?" Z1 looked at him with his head raised and fell back to his stomach. Kashiwagi said in his heart that it would be good if he didn't run, with a decent smile on his face.

"Dear Guardian of Order, Kigeld, I wonder if you can answer my doubts."

"What does the big brother want to ask Xiaosoft?" Yurika followed behind him, her face full of curiosity. Kashiwagi glanced at Z1, who was completely unresponsive, and replied, "When I asked Xiao Soft for help before, didn't it say that I was the will of the earth? I wonder what this will of the earth means. ”

"I see!" Little Lori suddenly knocked her fist on the palm of her hand like a big realization, and looked at Z1 with a smile,

"Xiao Soft~ Can you help explain?"

"Puff ......" Z1 still didn't answer. Seeing this, Yu Lijia directly picked it up and scratched her chin and the weakness of her body,

"Hee-hee-"

"Puff ......" Z1 was directly disarmed and surrendered, and his whole body was paralyzed as if it was scrapped. Unlike a comfortable massage, Yurika is a master of torture, and when she was first discovered, she also tamed Z1 with this technique.

It was lowered back onto the rock, and One-Eye looked at Yuri Kazuri helplessly, then turned to cypress.

"I have already said it, but it is my clumsiness, and this is a true word, and it is not false." A shrill voice rang out.

"What a clumsy ......," Kashiwagi muttered in a low voice. Z1 glanced at the smiling Yuri Carika and added,

"Maybe you've been bathing in the leyline water recently?"

"Leylines?" He was stunned for a moment, ran to the place where he put his backpack and took out a jug of water, opened the bottle and asked, "Is this it?" ”

"It is this thing, pure water, which originates from the root of the earth's leylines, and is beneficial to food." z1 bowed his head, and said again: "Your body is to drink the water of the leylines, you should do good deeds and avoid evil things, so as not to disgrace the ...... of the stars."

Kashiwagi listened word for word, and understood that this pot of water might be more precious than he thought, after all, in Z1's mouth, it was equated with the planet's curly Gu.

But did it know there was a hole beneath the Temple of Awakening? Shouldn't know. He silently put away the kettle, and the Yuri next to him was so curious that he wanted to open his mouth to ask several times.

Suddenly. Kashiwagi frowned, and Z1 also stood up. He looked to the sky and said to Yurika beside him, "Get on the airship with Salina, go to your brother and Polkanion, and tell them that the enemy is coming!" ”

"Enemies?" Yulika followed his line of sight, but saw nothing, which showed that his face was so serious, and he hurriedly ran to Sarina's side.

"I actually came a day early...... Is it because of me? Kashiwagi muttered in a low voice, it stands to reason that Jarvis and they should have come tomorrow morning.

The voice fell. In the distance, a large cloud of pitch-black smoke gradually spread in this direction, and the scene that obscured the sky and the sun was unstoppable.
