"Fleur King, Bonnie King."

Kashiwagi entered the noodle shop to greet the two.

The eyes of the other customers fell on him, and their expressions changed as they quietly discussed.

As the city that hosts the league convention and the Champions League, the people who live here are several times more sensitive to relevant news than other cities.

What's more, the news of Kashiwagen's "abandonment of the race" has already spread.

After so many days, he is still in Caiyou City?

"Didn't you quit the game? Repented? ”

Fleur grunted and drank ice water, and her straightforward words made everyone around her dumbfounded.

There is widespread speculation on the Internet that Kashiwagi will not be able to defeat the Four Heavenly Kings before giving up the game, and if he really says it, he can't afford to listen to it

Will it be noisy...... Or even fight!

The customers of the noodle restaurant bowed their heads expectantly, but their eyes were firmly locked on a few people.

However, Kashiwagi only shook his head and said, "I came with Captain Genji, and he is willing to give me and my friend a ride back to the Ouray region. ”

"Grandpa Genji? Oh! His ship is indeed a lot of fun! I also encountered a ghost ship last time I was on it! ”

Fleur said with a smile.

Bonnie, who finished drinking next to her, put down the bowl, elegantly wiped her mouth with a tissue, and asked as if no one was there, "Kashiwagi, you really don't participate?" ”

"Not participating."

Kashiwagi was about to explain, when a Poké Ball shook violently from his waist.

It's Doronbaruto...... No, is it Sister Doron Messia?

He let out the unsuspecting Doron Barruto, and the social dinosaur felt the gaze of the surrounding people and disappeared weakly.

But the two dragons in its emitter did not disappear, especially Sister Duolong, who pounced directly on Fleur, who was dressed as a southern country.

"Hee~!!"

It rubbed Fleur's face excitedly, how could the other party forget that the other party had taken care of it for so long.

Fleur was also pleasantly surprised, "Do you remember me?" You've gotten bigger, and it looks like the cypress has nurtured you very well! ”

"Hee~"

Sister Duolong kept being coquettish in Fleur's arms, and Brother Duolong circled around Bonnie and fled back to Kashiwagi.

The "cold air" on her body is too much, and the dragon attribute is difficult to adapt to at all.

Bonnie glanced at Brother Duolong, then at the ripples in the air, and said, "It looks like that Duolong Baruto has completely obeyed you, why don't you participate in the competition if you have such an ability?" ”

"My region needs my ...... more than Hoen"

Kashiwagi found out that Bonnie wanted to let him participate for some reason, so he said, "There will be a chance in the future, and there are more than just Champions League games in the world that everyone can meet." ”

He told the two of them that he had something important to do, and left with Sister Duolong, who was reluctant to stay in Furong for one night, and Brother Duolong, who was quite bored.

The stealthy Doron Barruto breathed a sigh of relief.

There are so many people in the narrow range that it is about to be suffocated.

Fleur looked at his back and complained, "It's a pity, I was looking forward to fighting him, and I didn't come before when I asked him to send Shenshan to play with me." ”

"Ole is very important to him, I can understand because I have a strong connection to my hometown." Bonnie nodded.

She comes from a faraway country where the cold is as cold as winter all year round, but the people there are warm and welcoming.

The other customers in the noodle shop excitedly withdrew their gaze.

Kashiwagi is so familiar with the two ladies of the Four Heavenly Kings of Hoen, and he also got on the ship of Genji, the strongest Four Heavenly Kings of Hoen, and even one of the Pokémon may come from the Hibiscus Heavenly King.

And the tone of listening to them communicate is completely at the level of friends.

Coupled with the words of Bonnie and Fleur who just instigated Kashiwagi to participate, no matter how you think about it, he can't be weak, right? Otherwise, how could the Four Heavenly Kings be persuaded repeatedly!

Many people couldn't eat anymore and hurriedly checked out to share what happened in the noodle restaurant with their friends.

A moment later.

In the midst of the uproar, nearly half of the customers in the noodle restaurant left.

The noodle shop owner was stunned.

"General! One more bowl! Bonnie said proudly that she likes to eat assorted noodles from Zijin City and ramen noodles from Saiyu City, and she has to eat several bowls every time she comes.

Hearing her voice, the owner of the noodle shop left the customers who had run away behind and showed a bright smile, "Wait a minute! Come now! ”

——

Cafe.

Manchong's cousin and a cadre of clerks once again entertained Kashiwagi.

"I'm sorry ......"

He looked at the Doron Messia siblings with only two tails in the cake, and the heterochromatic Geng ghost with a thousand layers of cheeks bulging high, and the muffins that disappeared inexplicably in succession, and sighed in his heart.

Although he does usually limit snacks, especially those with heavy oil and sugar.

But the performance of these goods also made him lose face, as if he was abusing his Pokémon every day!

"It's okay, you're the winner of the conference where we left a photo, so it's a must!"

Cousin Manchong said with a smile.

Then.

She looked to the side and said as she retreated: "Your friend seems to be here, you eat slowly, and if it's not enough, call me again." ”

Kashiwagi turned around, and saw the yellow-haired Otsuka with his hands in his pockets and hunched over, and the whole flow of people appeared at the end of the street.

Behind him was an earthy yellow gangster crocodile looking around, with a demeanor that resembled him.

When the eyes of the two collided, Otsuka's face was flustered for a moment, and his rickety waist immediately straightened, and his expression became serious.

"Boss!"

He waved happily.

Kashiwagi responded with his head bowed, he didn't care about this guy's hooligan temperament just now, some habits are really difficult to change in a short period of time, "Chenghong, they didn't come with you?" ”

"We're all going our separate ways, you see! How's this bastard crocodile? I traded a Mariluli that I happened to catch! ”

Otsuka said triumphantly.

He liked the ground attribute from the beginning, but he used rolling as a big move, and it was a normal operation to use Mariluli to exchange people for gangsters.

Kashiwagi has been cultivating Pokémon for so long, and he hasn't exchanged it with anyone.

The main one is reluctant, and none of them are reluctant.

"It's okay, it's a good match for you." He glanced at the gangster, who seemed to be slightly salivating over the cake on the table, and inadvertently slapped Geng's butt.

"Huh?"

Geng Ghost, whose cheeks were bigger than his eyes, was in a dazed state, and then followed the trainer's line of sight to see the gangster crocodile, so he smiled and invited the other party to join in this gluttonous feast.

The Crocodile was a little reserved at first, looking at its trainer frequently.

It wasn't until he nodded that he couldn't wait to pick up a puff and nibble on it.

"Wow!"

Otsuka sat down excitedly and shared his recent experience, "Boss! In the past two days, I went to challenge a gym, and that's called a weak! It's not even as good as a squad leader in our place, which is also called the hall owner? ”

"Stupid, people deliberately use low-level Pokémon because they don't have a badge."

Kashiwagi glanced at him.

When chatting.

The rest of the people also came, and judging from the different Pokémon they were traveling with, it was clear that they had their own gains during this time.

After all, you don't need to spend money to buy a Pokémon outside of the Ouray region, and you don't need to rack your brains to please or fool around, you can throw Poké Balls to subdue them.

Kashiwagi saw that compared with the previous meeting, Kashiwagi obviously felt more like an ordinary young trainer, and nodded with satisfaction.

Now that I think about it, Oulei people always have a bitter and hateful temperament.

The impact of the living environment is too great.

He took a sip of his coffee and told the group what he was going to do, asking them what they thought.

Before they traveled to the mainstream area, they may have been thinking about taking him back, and now that they have been traveling for more than two weeks, they may not want to leave so quickly when they see the flower world outside.

However.

"The Four Heavenly Kings? Are the Four Heavenly Kings of Hoenn sending us back? ”

"The Four Heavenly Kings are very powerful, right?"

"Of course it's amazing! Countless times stronger than the previous boss of the quicksand team! Not at all on a level! ”

"Kashiwagi, have you fought against that Four Heavenly King? Is it a win! ”

Several people were chattering.

Cheng Hong has always been a little follower who blindly worships Kashiwagi, and it has not changed so far, in his opinion, although the Four Heavenly Kings are very powerful, they will definitely lose against their boss.

"You had faith in me, but you did win."

Kashiwagi nodded helplessly and asked, "Aren't you going to stay in Hoenn for a while?" ”

Otsuka and the others shook their heads decisively, "We are here to pick you up this time, even if we want to go on a trip, we have to send you back first, otherwise we won't be able to explain to everyone." ”

They said they didn't want him to go back alone, so they had to go with him.

Kashiwagi had no choice but to nod, and when he saw that a table of desserts had been wiped out by the Pokémon, he got up and said, "Okay, go to the ship to report first, you guys will be clever later, remember to be polite." Don't just call someone boss...... It's okay to call the big brother, it's better to call the person's title. ”

"Yes!"

The loud responses of several people startled passers-by.

A moment later.

Above the Fury.

Liangguang was frightened by the young men who lined up and bowed their heads and shouted the first mate, looked at Kashiwagi and said, "This, this is your friend?" ”

"Ole characteristics, don't pay too much attention to it."

Kashiwagi patted him on the shoulder.

Otsuka and the others saw that their behavior seemed to scare people, and hurriedly apologized in unison.

Ryomitsu slapped his forehead on the laughter of the other crew members and persuaded, "Okay, okay, you guys should hurry up and straighten your waist." ”

He has been with Genji for many years, and he has seen all kinds of people, but he doesn't know how to get along with these people right now.

The young men in front of him went to Kashiwagi to say hello to the rest of the crew, and he was really a little convinced.

But.

Ryomitsu actually likes them a lot, with a strong physique, a loud voice, and a polite voice.

After a moment's consideration, he stepped forward and asked, "Are you interested in being a temporary sailor?" Just from today to the day you get off the ship. ”

"Sailor?"

Otsuka and the others looked at each other, this barely existential word in Huangtie Town was a bit beyond their comprehension.

Liangguang hurriedly explained.

At the same time, he also listed the benefits of being a sailor, such as being able to see more scenery, such as being able to exercise the will and body, such as cultivating Pokémon to be stronger, and so on.

After hearing this, everyone looked at the boss Kashiwagi.

Kashiwagi glared: "Look at what I'm doing, people ask you!" ”

"Ahh Oooooooo Good good! ”

They hurriedly agreed.

The main reason for agreeing is the last one, and the more Otsuka and the others understand the outside world, the more they understand which direction Kashiwagi is heading.

They didn't want to be "abandoned", so they tried their best to keep up with him.

The first mate said that being a sailor could make Pokémon stronger, and they naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Excellent! It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, so you might as well start today! ”

Ryomitsu excitedly called the crew to come and bring the newcomer, in the past, when a newcomer came on board, he would arrange a senior for him, and Otsuka and others were no exception.

Seeing this, Kashiwagi quietly asked if it was not good for the other party to arrange new sailors without Genji's consent.

Ryomitsu said that almost all of the new trainers on the ship in the past two years were recruited by him, and Genji had not invited anyone on board for a long time.

He had the authority to arrange new sailors.

"That's good." Kashiwagi nodded, feeling that he was too worried, how could the first mate be reckless after following Genji for so long.

"Would you like to try it too?"

Liangguang made an invitation.

He shook his head in refusal, turning on his phone to check the time.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Kashiwagi-kun!"

Kashiwagi was slightly stunned, and then realized something and looked down the boat, and saw in a black suit with one hand on his waist looking at him with a smile.

"Daigo-san!"

He happily got off the boat, "You also came by boat?" ”

Dawu turned sideways to reveal a speedboat full of science and technology, and said: "I took a plane back to Green Ridge City first, and then I came by speedboat, I didn't expect to see you on Mr. Genji's boat." ”

Kashiwagi replied, "I met by chance, and Captain Genji was willing to give me a ride. The game started in the afternoon, right? Is it okay if you're not there yet? ”

"I'm not in such a hurry, and the car that picked me up has already arrived, do you want to give you a ride?"

Daigo smiled lightly.

How could Kashiwagi, who wanted to see the Champions League with his own eyes, refuse, but before that, he had to ask Otsuka their opinion, and there were not many opportunities to watch the Four Heavenly Kings and the champions fight live.

Unexpectedly, these guys were not interested.

Rather than spending time watching the unfamiliar Four Heavenly Kings and Champions fight, they prefer to wait for Kashiwagi to cheer when he plays.

"Wild boars can't eat fine chaff......"

Kashiwagi was hurt by their angry liver, and took the car that picked up Daigo alone.

On the way to the arena.

Like Bonie, Daigo regrets that someone has given up on the Champions League, and fighting them is something that Hoenn Champions have wanted to do for a long time.

However, Kashiwagi didn't take the initiative to mention it, and he didn't take the initiative to say it, otherwise he felt that he was suspected of bullying the new trainer.

"There will be a chance, there will be a chance."

Kashiwagi is now looking forward to the Pokémon World Championship.

Turn.

The two of them talked about the Frozen Cavern's Super Stone Mine, which had an unusually large amount of storage, but if they wanted to mine it, they had to weigh it.

There are too many wild Pokémon living in the Frozen Caves, and random mining may cause damage to the natural environment and ecology there, and now the mining method is being discussed.

"The Carlos Alliance refused to contract us, and Dewen is obviously very good in the mining industry and can definitely complete the task."

Daigo was helpless, it was too painful for a stone maniac to be unable to mine the treasure in his hand.

Kashiwagi understands the Carlos Alliance.

It is nothing more than a question of sovereignty.

It's okay that Daigo is simply the young master of the Dewen Company, but he is also the champion of the Hoenn region, and the status brought by this identity makes it impossible for the Carlos Alliance to hand over some things that fall within their scope of responsibility to Daigo's side.

Not much.

It's time for the arena.

Countless fans of Daigo and spectators of the game surrounded the car.
