Akiba Town, a medium-sized town in the northwestern part of the Hoenn region.

It's not big, but it's important.

Because it is close to the active volcano Chimney Mountain, volcanic ash falls all year round.

As a result, the land here is very fertile, and it has naturally developed into an important agricultural town.

At this time, Ming was riding a treacherous deer, looking at this endless wheat field from afar.

The breeze blows, and the wheat fields shake like waves, which is refreshing to watch.

"Ding~"

Sai Fuhao appeared out of nowhere, and was very interested in Huang Cancan's wheat field, and even wanted to play peek-a-boo to let Mingzheng come to him.

"I admit defeat, your color is exactly the same as here, I won't be able to find it when you hide it!"

Mingzheng flickered seriously, but Sai Fuhao recognized it and flew around excitedly.

The Horned Deer rolled his eyes, he really didn't bother to remind the Saifu man.

It and Mingzheng both have superpowers, and if they look for you, they will also investigate a circle of things.

After laughing, the Horned Deer continued to carry Ming Zheng to Akiba Town in the middle of the wheat field, and Sai Fuhao flew to Ming Zheng's side, and then he got down to business.

"Still following? What does it want to do......"

Ming Zheng is strange, Qixi Jade Bird took advantage of his momentum to escape smoothly, and successfully solved the ill-intentioned fellow clan halfway, why did he still follow him?

'Do you really like me?' ’

Ming Zheng muttered to himself, and then quickly shook his head to dispel.

The three major illusions in life, I am very good, the time is still early, and he likes me!

Mingzheng doesn't want to be a person without self-knowledge.

Passing through the wheat fields, Ming Zheng entered the town of Akiba, where there are few high-rise buildings on the rustic streets, and the 10-storey Devon Hotel is already very conspicuous.

After checking in, Ming Zheng turned around and went to the elf center next to him, ready to give his partners a full body check.

After handing over the elf to Miss Joy, Akimasa saw a huge poster posted outside the lounge.

【Autumn Leaves Spring Festival, Decisive Battle in the Countryside】

"There's a festival bazaar and elves to fight, and only water, ground, and grass elves can participate, and the winning prize is a rare tree fruit sapling set?"

After reading it silently, Ming Zheng was not small, because the time was also right, and it was the day after tomorrow.

"If you want to participate, you can sign up now!"

A slightly familiar voice sounded behind him, and Ming Zheng turned his head to find that he was actually looking at the little thistle who had a relationship with the cave, and beside her, there was another quite heroic girl.

"What a coincidence, you're here too?!"

"Well, when I saw a game passing by, I stayed for the time being," said Xiao Ji, who also took the initiative to introduce Mingzheng to the girl next to him.

"Izumi, this is Mingzheng, a very powerful trainer! Ming Zheng helped me when I was looking at the cave experience. ”

Ming Zheng looked at the heroic girl with big wavy burgundy hair in front of him, and immediately corresponded to a person in the original book.

Marine Team, First Cadre, Izumi!

The future battle leader and the future Ocean Team cadre turned out to be friends now?

Mingzheng only thinks that this world is really small!

However, on the face, Ming Zheng just nodded calmly to Izumi, without the slightest abnormality.

But Izumi was obviously very interested in him, and asked with excitement on her face.

"You're talking about the ugly fish that evolved into Menas?"

“……”

The little thistle on the side immediately stopped Quanmei in a panic, and hurriedly apologized: "I didn't disbelieve you, because I believed it, I shared it with Quanmei." ”

Saying that, Xiao Ji had already pulled Quan Mei back, but her face was flushed.

After all, sharing is not the same as who shared it with her.

Ming Zheng didn't mind, he didn't even think about it so much, but turned the topic back to the Autumn Leaves Spring Festival.

"Are there any other restrictions on this registration?"

"In addition to the restrictions on the attributes of the elves, the level cannot exceed the elite level, and then each person can register up to two elves that meet the requirements and replace them.

Well, all the matches of the Kasuga Festival are 1v1 singles. ”

Xiao Ji immediately said like a treasure, and Quanmei's big eyes kept flowing on Ming Zheng and Xiao Ji, with an expression that I must eat this melon.

But Ming Zheng was indifferent, and after saying goodbye, he walked to the registration desk.

Five minutes later, Ming Zheng reported his name and found that Xiao Ji and Izumi were still standing in place.

"We've all signed up, why don't we warm up before the game?"

Izumi who is self-cooked took the initiative to say.

Ming Zheng pointed in the direction where Miss Joy left, "My elf is still healing, you guys go." ”

"Then tomorrow!"

"If you have time," Akimasa said perfunctorily.

Before he was sure what Izumi's identity was now, Mingzheng really didn't want to have more to do with her.

Including Xiao Ji, Ming Zheng is ready to go back and check carefully.

The local underground forces may not be strong, but they will definitely be troublesome if they are against them, this is the conclusion that Ming Zheng came to after encountering the King Kong team.

So if it's not necessary, he doesn't want to have more contact with the Flame Team, the Ocean Team and the like in the Hoenn region.

It's not that I'm afraid, but it's mainly bad.

What's more, he still has the identity of Team Rocket, and there is no cooperative relationship between underground forces.

Well...... At least not yet.

The two of them also obviously heard Mingzheng's carelessness, and Xiao Ji gently pulled Quan Mei and took the initiative to terminate the topic.

"Then let's all race and cheer!"

"Well, come on!"

Mingzheng nodded and watched the two leave.

Judging from the expressions of the two after they turned around, Mingzheng obviously didn't make a good impression on Izumi.

That's good!

Ming Zheng smiled, sat back in the waiting area and looked up the information about the Spring Festival, and soon had a more detailed understanding.

Time flashed, and it was the day of the spring festival.

Xiao Ji and Izumi really didn't come to Ming Zheng again, and Ming Zheng also found more detailed information about the two.

The identity of the small thistle is relatively simple, and there are no major problems.

But Izumi is different, there is a two-year blank period of information, and in combination with the future identity, it is not surprising that she has joined the Ocean team.

Avoid it right!

Ming Zheng thought so, and then saw the figures of the two women on the lively Spring Festival Main Street.

Really...... I can't hide it!

At this time, the two also saw Ming Zheng head-on, and after hesitating, Xiao Ji still pulled Quanmei over.

"Are you shopping too?"

"Ah...... Yes" paused, Ming Zheng still took the initiative to add; "How prepared is the game, are you ready to let the green vine snake play?"

"It's hard to say, after all, you didn't participate in our pre-training warm-up."

Izumi on the side said suddenly, obviously haunted by Ming Zheng's previous attitude in the Elf Center.

Xiao Ji nodded unmindfully, this kind of 1V1 and attribute restriction is such a dead game, the elf is exposed in advance or something, in fact, it has little impact.

"But if I have the chance, I'd like to let the ugly fish play."

"It's hatched, congratulations!"

Ming Zheng smiled, and thanked him a lot more sincerely, after all, not anyone's ugly fish can evolve into Menas.

If the little thistle can be cultivated, it will be said that Ming Zheng will also have a lot of credit in the future.

"Luckily, I just bought everything I needed for hatching, and it responded."

"Such a coincidence? Maybe you're very close to the ugly fish! ”

"Hmmm......"

Izumi on the side looked at the two people who were chatting hotly, and her heart was full of anger.

But her task this time is to pull Xiao Ji to join the ocean team, and she also expressed her support for Xiao Ji to cultivate ugly and ugly fish before, and the two gradually became acquainted.

Therefore, it is necessary to be steady, and not to be impatient.

"Little Thistle's ugly ugly fish is different, I dare say it's definitely the best ugly fish in it!"

Izumi suddenly interjected, leaving both of them stunned.

It was Xiao Ji who reacted first, smiled and shook his head.

"How do you see that, I don't know?"

"I'm a future master, a master of the water elf, I just saw it!"

Quanmei deliberately played with treasure, with a delicate face and burgundy wavy hair, she was really a little delicate and beautiful.

Little Thistle smiled heartily, only thinking that her new friend was really a living treasure, very interesting.

At this time, Ming Zheng also smiled faintly, but his heart was extremely vigilant.

At the beginning, the yin and yang were weird, and now they are playing treasure and amusement, if there is no problem with Quanmei, it is that the brain is abnormal.

Seeing that today's social meeting was over, Ming Zheng pointed to the stall in front of him.

"I'd like to go over there again, and we'll see you in the arena later?"

"See you in the arena!"

"Bye-bye!"

Saying goodbye to the two, Ming Zheng turned his head and entered an alley.

It was all information that he had investigated before, and when he knew that there was something wrong with Izumi, he stopped, thinking that it would be better not to contact him.

But this time, let's use the power of Team Rocket!

Thinking like this, Ming Zheng came to an ordinary rice, flour, grain and oil store.

……

An hour later, Akira followed the crowd to the venue of the Spring Festival.

The three enclosed battlefields were in the middle of the field, and the atmosphere was very lively with spectators on all sides.

Ming Zheng looked at the special battlefield formed by the wet and soft farmland + winding streams, and the anticipation rose in his heart.

This is really very characteristic of the spring festival.

walked in, confirmed the registration information, and Ming Zheng released the only Kami turtle that met the requirements of the competition.

Its elite strength is already the upper limit of registration, and the Kami turtle is also very rare in the Hoenn area, so it immediately gained the attention of everyone around it.

At this time, there was less than half an hour before the official start of the competition, and many trainers who had signed up also came.

Ming Zheng took a general look and found that the contestants were still mainly local farmers.

But everyone looks happy, and it seems that the main focus is on participation.

However, since the reward is a rare tree fruit sapling, I think there are still people who want to fight for it.

There are also a few travel trainers like Ming Zheng and Xiao Ji, all of them are full of confidence, obviously not thinking how strong the honest and simple peasant uncles can be.

Soon, the competition began, with three venues taking place at the same time, with six players taking to the field.

Coincidentally, the little thistle was in the first batch, and as soon as the ugly ugly fish that fell into the stream appeared, it instantly became the focus of the audience.

Compared with the little thistle, the three gophers next to it VS swimmer and pangolin VS poison rose are not so many people care.

And the ugly ugly fish......

"Hey, is this an elf? It's too ugly! ”

"What an ugly fish, you look so dumbfounded!"

"That's the strength of a travel trainer, no, no......"

The voices of questioning, ridicule, and suspicion sounded, making the ugly ugly fish who seemed stupid, but was actually smart and sensitive, almost cried out with grievances.

At this time, the referee was already waving a flag to signal the start of the game.

"Meimei, don't surprise people's words, believe in yourself, you have your own beauty!

Let's try this trick on the other side!

Dragon's Wave! ”

For cultivating ugly fish, spiritual support is far more important than simply winning.

As one of the future battle leaders, Xiao Ji obviously has excellent talent as a trainer, and has also carefully studied the training method.

And this seemingly verbose order can at least allow the ugly fish to exert its normal strength.

What's more, this ugly fish is not ordinary!

"Woo~"

I saw the senior-level ugly fish suddenly jump up from the stream, and then gather its purple-red light all over its body, and then open its mouth and spit it violently!

In the next second, the dragon-type energy fluctuations roared out, and directly hit the stupid fire camel that was in the way of face, and was embarrassed to attack such an ugly opponent first!

Boom!

The dragon's wave exploded, and the screams of the dumb camels were especially noticeable in the silence of the arena.

"That's... The fish ......"

"No, ...... Dragon"

"Dragons?"

"I guess I happen to know a half-style dragon skill."

"Next, the Wave of Water!"

"Whoa!"

Without giving the audience time to react, another blue water bomb roared out, successfully harvesting the stupid fire camel, which was also a senior.

The ugly ugly fish won the first battle, and his dumbfounded eyes were bent into a slit, and finally took the initiative to jump into the arms of the little thistle.

Little Thistle didn't mind getting her clothes dirty, she just smiled and soothed the ugly fish who was a little excited.

"I'll just say it, the ugly ugly fish of the little thistle is very powerful!"

Izumi suddenly appeared next to Mingzheng, who was watching the battle, and said something that she didn't seem to have said.

Ming Zheng was silent and nodded perfunctorily.

Izumi felt Mingmasa's alienation again, and she looked back on the whole process of understanding and confirmed that there were no flaws.

Could it be that Ming Zheng just doesn't like her enthusiastic and cheerful girl?

That's hard!

Izumi pursed her lips, depressed in her heart.

It was only just now that she received detailed information about Ming Zheng from the intelligence officer of the Marine Brigade.

Except for the identity of Team Rocket, which has not been revealed, Mingzheng's other experiences and achievements, Izumi has already known everything.

Obviously, he is a more worthy of wooing than thistle, but also more difficult to overcome.

It's too late, Izumi didn't pester Mingzheng anymore, she was ready to find a chance to let Mingzheng get to know her again.

Then, Izumi took the initiative to run up to meet the little thistle who had just won.

Come one by one!

First of all, it's my best friend!

Izumi thought, gave Xiao Ji a hug warmly, and then turned to play.

In the second round, it was Izumi's turn to play, and a ferocious elite-level megalodon easily defeated the opponent's Lotus Hat Boy and advanced to the next round.

When Izumi is over, Akimasa also plays in the third round.

The Kami turtle appeared on the scene, and with a mediocre freezing beam, it easily froze the proboscis leaf on the opposite side and completed the game.

The first few rounds of the battle were obviously not challenging.

Mingzheng is very calm, and the Kami turtle doesn't matter.

It cares about only one opponent.

It's not Izumi's megalodon, it's the little thistle who hasn't appeared yet!
