"Naoki?"

When she first heard the name, she thought she had heard it wrong, was it the Naoki she knew?

As soon as Emperor Dan saw Yeci's expression, he knew that she really knew this person, "That's right, it's Naoki!" ”

In order to prevent the duplicate name, Emperor Dan said again: "In addition to the Lei Crown King by his side, there is also an extremely powerful red Pokémon, and its name seems to be called Gu Leton?" Both of them must be Pokémon unique to the Padia region, right? ”

Yeci: "......"

Therefore, Le Dun is indeed a Pokémon in the Padia region, but the Thunder Crown is not.

She had heard Naoki say that King Reiguan used to live in the Galel region and was regarded as a king by the people of that region, but he was later forgotten in the river of time.

And now, looking at Dandi's appearance, it seems that he really doesn't know that the Thunder Crown King is a legendary Pokémon in the Galar region?

Thinking of this, Yeci didn't know what to say for a while.

After a brief thought, she gradually cleared her mind

- Naoki traveled to the Garrell region last year to find the forgotten Red Crown and subdue him, and then used the Red Crown to participate in a competition.

It just so happened that Dandi was also there, but for some reason, Naoki withdrew halfway, causing Dandi to miss this extremely powerful trainer and wanted to compete with him.

So, he made a request to visit the Pádian League and came to the Padian region.

It's just that......

"Naoki is not a trainer of the Pardean League." He told the truth: "He does not work on the side of the Pardean League. ”

Dandi was stunned: "What? ”

Ye Ci looked at the cheerful and generous young man in front of him and explained to him:

"Naoki is currently running a ranch in a small country town in the Padia region, and if you want to find him, I can tell you exactly where he is."

Hearing this, Emperor Dan was a little dumbfounded.

Pastors, ranchers?

Ye Ci was familiar with this feeling, she smiled slightly, and said, "When I first heard about this kind of thing, I was just as surprised as you!" ”

"But then I learned that Naoki had traveled around other regions before, only returned to Padia last spring, and then inherited his late grandfather's ranch and settled there with a group of Pokémon."

"No wonder!" Emperor Dan suddenly said, this makes sense.

Retired champion re-employment in the countryside? It's like his master Ma Shide bought an island and ran a martial arts gym on it.

It's also a great choice to run a ranch with a group of Pokémon and live a new life!

In that case, let's go there and pay a visit!

Seeing Emperor Dan's expression, Ye Ci guessed what he was thinking.

"Zhiqin Town, Naoshu's ranch is in Yanqin Town, when you get to that place, just ask the people in the town, they will show you the way, after all, Naoki Ranch is very famous over there!" Ye Ci said.

"Good! Thank you very much! Dandi smiled heartily, then stood up and walked outside.

Ye Ci sent him to the door.

Dandi took out the Poké Ball, and with a flash of white light, a strong, bright-eyed Charizard appeared in front of the Alliance's headquarters.

Dandi took out a map and carefully inquired about the specific location of Yanqin Town on it.

Ye Ci, who was standing behind him, saw this scene and couldn't help but remind him loudly: "...... Mr. Dandy, your map seems to be taken backwards. ”

"Huh? Oooh! Dandi hurriedly flipped the map over, and after determining the direction of the town, he rode onto Charizard and pointed it in the direction of its destination.

"Woohoo!"

Charizard let out a majestic cry, then flailed its wings and flew into the sky.

Yeci stood in the aisle and looked at Emperor Dan who was gradually moving away, and she felt as if she knew why Emperor Dan came so slowly.

*

Before I knew it, it was night again, and I had fully recovered my strength after a good night's sleep.

Naoki was once again awakened from his sleep.

"Flutter your wings?"

He picked up the clock and looked at it, and it was already eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

Therefore, they are still asleep, and they don't know what they dreamed of, and they smashed their mouths from time to time, looking satisfied.

Fluttering looked at the human in the dark with a pair of red eyes, and thought, "I should go hunting tonight, right?" Otherwise, the food will be eaten.

"Dreams?"

Naoki resigned himself to turning over and getting out of bed, and went to the kitchen to take out food from the refrigerator and feed it to Zhen Yifa.

But who knew that after Zhenyifa finished eating, he still had no intention of giving up going out.

It floated around the room in a hurry.

Naoki was a little confused, he turned to look outside and asked, "You want to go out?" ”

Zhenyifa nodded, its nature telling it that it was going out to hunt, or they would go hungry when the food ran out.

Hungry stomachs will become weak, and if other Pokémon take advantage of the opportunity at this time, they will be in a very dangerous situation.

That's why Zhen Yifa is so anxious.

Seeing this, Naoki fell into deep thought.

He was a little puzzled by Zhen Yifa's behavior, and after a little thought, he decided to go out and see what Zhen Yifa wanted to do.

Naoki opened the door and followed Fluttersa to the outside.

The pasture was silent in the middle of the night, and there was not a single sound except for the occasional insect chirp in the grass.

The moonlight was shining brightly, and the night was reflected very clearly, although it was not as clear as during the day, but it could barely see the things nearby.

In the middle of the night, the snowstorm horse was already asleep, but the ghost horse had not yet slept.

The three mounted goats lay in the hut and fell asleep peacefully on the soft grass.

The three bees burrowed into the hive and dreamed sweetly in the sweet smell of the wooden hut.

The Bada Butterfly fell on the branch of the World Tree and stood there in a deep sleep.

Naoki followed Zhenyifa, only to see Zhenyifa look around, and then start floating towards the outside of the ranch.

He reluctantly raised his heels, and one person and one Pokémon turned to a dense wood.

Fluttering Wings floated in the shadows, and then looked back at Naoki who was walking down the road with a big grin, and couldn't help but be puzzled.

- How did this human catch so much prey? If you run straight outside like this, the prey will be scared away.

Naoki finally couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?" ”

At this moment, there was a rustling sound in the grass ahead.

Momentarily attracted to attention, it turned its head, ready to begin capturing its prey.

And seeing Zhen Yifa's move, Naoki instantly understood its thoughts.

It's a hunting activity!

It's the survival instinct of the wings! The ecological habits that have been cultivated for a long time belong to the primitive ancient species!

"No, you can't!"

Seeing that the fluttering wings were about to attack the bean cricket that was burrowing out of the grass, Naoki hurriedly stopped it.

The bean cricket, who heard the sound, was alarmed, and hurriedly used its super bouncing ability to jump ten meters high, and fled in a panic.

The hunt was stopped, and he didn't get angry, but looked at it with confusion.

Seeing this, Naoki asked, "Were you just catching prey?" ”

"Dreams." Zhen Yifa nodded.

Naoki shook his head and said, "No, there is no need to catch prey now, I told you before that I will raise you, which means that I will provide you with food, and you will never have to come out to hunt by yourself again." ”

Flap Wing is still a little puzzled.

Naoki didn't say much, but took the fluttering hair back to the ranch, back to the living room, opened the pantry and refrigerator doors, and showed it the full amount of food inside.

Looking at the mountain of food, Zhen Yifa's eyes widened in shock.

"Dream ......!"

This human is so good at hunting!

It looked at Naoki with admiration.

Naoki: "...... It seems that you have not yet understood the meaning of Trainer and Pokémon. ”

It just so happened that several Pokémon were woken up by their voices and walked out one after another.

Naoki looked at them and explained to Flutterwing, "For a Pokémon, the Trainer will be the most important companion, friend, and even family member in its life. ”

"After living with the trainer, the Pokémon don't need to go out to get food, because the trainer will prepare all kinds of delicacies for them to raise them and nurture them."

In the dark, Naoki looked into the eyes of the fluttering wings and said to it, "You have become my Pokémon, so I will take care of you like that." ”

Zhenyi listened to it as if he understood it or not, and after the introduction of the old Leton in the past two days, he had a certain understanding of this completely different world.

For example, there are humans in this world, and humans will live with Pokémon.

It's just that it still doesn't understand where humans who can't fight, who can't hunt, get their prey?

Naoki roughly guessed the meaning of fluttering wings.

So he took it to the orchards and fields outside: "The food will grow from these places, and as for the meat, I will go to the town and buy it with money." ”

Naoki felt that Zhen Yifa should not understand these things, so he explained in detail and patiently:

"To be precise, it's to exchange with other people, for example, he only has meat, but he needs tree fruits, I can use these tree fruits that grow from the ground and exchange them for meat, do you understand now?"

Zhenyifa only felt that these things were complicated, and it was dizzy to listen, and in the end it didn't understand anything.

Naoki: "......"

He took a deep breath, and then said to Zhen Yifa:

"It doesn't matter what else is, you don't need to understand, I'm here."

"You just have to remember that I am your trainer and I will provide you with prey from now on."

"All you need to do is sleep well and have fun with Guleton! Do you understand? ”

"Dream ......"

Zhenyi looked at the human in front of him in a daze, and he still didn't understand what a trainer was.

Are trainers humans who hunt specifically for Pokémon? So what are they for?

Fluttering Wings couldn't understand that in its perception, humans were really strange creatures.

Naoki saw the confusion of the fluttering wings, thought inwardly for a moment, and then said to it in the moonlight:

"Because human trainers love Pokémon and want to live with them, that's why they do these things."

Like? What is Like?

Naoki continued: "I don't know if you know what liking is, for us humans, liking means being able to do anything for each other. ”

Hearing this, Zhen Yifa's mind suddenly appeared in his mind that he had met Gu Lerton for the first time, the "ghost" who was scattered in order to protect Gu Lerton.

The ghost...... Do you also like the old Leton?

So, is it protecting Olden?

Zhen Yifa's heart began to think for the first time in his life.

At this moment, it felt like it understood a little bit about the meaning of trainers and Pokémon.

Naoki is dying.

He yawned and waved his hand: "Okay, let's go back to sleep!" ”

The motorcycle lizards went back one after another, and Naoki turned to look at the fluttering wing, but saw that it had no idea of going back to sleep.

“……”

Forget it, let it go for now! Go back and buy some coffee to see if you can make any refreshing drinks, and then help Zhen Yifa adjust his routine to be the same as everyone else.

In order to prevent accidents, Naoki said to Zhen Yifa before leaving:

"Don't hurt other Pokémon, if you're hungry, you can open the refrigerator and pantry yourself and get food from inside, and if you still don't understand, then look with your eyes, okay?"

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Zhen Yifa's head for the first time.

He looked at him in a daze, but he didn't resist.

Naoki thought of the ability of the golden right hand obtained during the day today, so he took advantage of the situation to activate that ability.

However, there was no response.

Seeing this, Naoki said in his heart: "...... Sure enough, this ability has no effect on paradoxical Pokémon! ”

He withdrew his hand, said goodbye to Zhen Yifa, and turned back to his room.

Bathed in the moonlight, he silently watched the figure that was fading away, and muttered, "Dream ......"

*

The next day, life on the ranch returned to its former tranquillity.

It was a sunny day, and after breakfast, Naoki went to work on the ranch.

At the same time, in the town of Yanqin, Dandi and Charizard finally arrived in this rural town by the sea under the leadership of a team of angry parrots.

They were the same fleet of angry parrot taxis they met yesterday afternoon.

When they met him halfway, the enthusiastic driver greeted him, and after learning that he was unfamiliar with his life and that his destination was also in the town of Yanqin, he immediately said that Dandi could go with them.

Dandi was well aware of his road idiot attributes, and in order to avoid running in the wrong place again, and to fight the trainer as soon as possible, he honestly followed the back of this team.

Under the leadership of the driver, he finally did not get lost again this time and successfully arrived in the town of Yanqin.

Charizard also breathed a sigh of relief.

After landing, Dandy said goodbye to the driver, took Charizard back into the Poké Ball, and then found a passing uncle on the way, and politely asked:

"Hello uncle, where should I go to Naoki Ranch?"

"Naoki Ranch?" Hearing this name, the uncle looked excited: "Could it be that you also came for that legend?" ”

Emperor Dan was stunned: "What legend?" ”

"Of course, it's the legend of the King of Plenty!" The uncle happily introduced the legend that circulated in Yanqin Town to the outsider.

"It is said that Naoki has a lot to do with the legendary Pokémon Lei Crown! The people of the town believe in the Lei Guan, thanks to Naoki! ”

"The Thunder Crown?" Dandi was even more puzzled, the big-headed Pokémon he had seen in the game came to his mind, did there be any legend on it?

How do you see how respectful people here are?

"Hey! You don't even know this, do you? The Thunder Crown has recently become very famous in the Padia region! Uncle said.

Dandi: "...... Truth be told, I'm a native of Galal and came to Pardea not long ago. ”

"No wonder!" The uncle's face was abrupt: "Since you don't know, then I'll tell you about it!" ”

"Legend has it that there is a legendary Pokémon named King Leiguan living in a certain land, it is a Pokémon that can bring abundance to the earth, and humans in the past affectionately called him the King of Abundance."

"However, after a while, the king was gradually forgotten, and he lost his beloved horse and wandered alone in the cold snowfield."

"One day, Naoki discovered His account from an ancient book and firmly believed in the existence of the King of Abundance, and his faith was felt by the King of Abundance, and since then, his pasture has been favored by the King of Abundance."

"Later, Naoki told the people of the town about the Lei Crown King, and the people began to trust the Lei Crown King."

"Maybe the Thunder Crown King felt all this, right? He descended on the region of Padia and performed a miracle in a forest that had been burned to ashes by fire not long ago, and restored the mountain to its original state in an instant. ”

"Because of this, the Pardian League also built a shrine for him on the back mountain! And it is said that the current Lei Guan King is hovering on the back mountain and will appear in front of the human beings who are pious in their hearts. ”

"Also... And this kind of thing? "Emperor Dan's eyes widened in disbelief, that legendary Pokémon named Lei Guanwang is so powerful!

The uncle was a little surprised: "Don't you know? I thought you were going to Naoki Ranch to learn more about the legend of the Thunder Crown King from him! ”

Dandi: "...... I'm here for another thing. ”

"Okay." The uncle nodded, and then told him the location of Naoki Ranch.

Emperor Dan thanked him, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, the uncle suddenly stopped him again.

Dandi looked back.

I saw that the uncle was pointing to a handicraft store, Dandi looked in that direction, and then saw rows of Pokémon statues on the shelves of that store.

And that Pokémon is clearly the one he once saw next to Naoki in the game!

The uncle showed a sincere smile on his face: "Buy a small wood carving, the King of Abundance will bless you!" ”
