Chapter 273: The Winner's Burden

"The battle on the Tower of Heaven can finally evolve into such an ending, probably relying on the power of that Biktini. However, even the Phantom Pokémon that could bring victory was exhausted and fainted at the last moment of the battle, and it seems that my brother really has nothing to do with Pokémon. ”

The Sinnoh champion rubbed his forehead and sighed, and turned to look at Junsha beside him.

"As for the title of champion of the United States, maybe it's not as serious as you think."

"Not serious?"

Miss Junsha from the Alliance's Investigation Department leaned forward, her eyebrows raised like her voice—

"Listening to King Gardelia's description, Hugo's real hand-held elves now should only be the three Sinnoh beginner Pokémon you gave him, right? Just thinking about it, it can be expected that when that detective really inherits the title and has to be fully disclosed in terms of identity and strength, it will definitely instantly arouse the public outrage of all the trainers in the United District. Relying only on the advice of the previous champion, there is no way to suppress such a surging anger. ”

This matter was originally a problem in the United Regions, and Junsha, as an intelligence investigator of the Sinnoh Alliance, actually didn't worry about the ownership of the championship titles in other regions at all.

However, probably because of the cooperative relationship with detectives in the past, Junsha in the Sinnoh region generally maintained a cordial attitude towards Hugo, and this Junsha Miss was a little excited to question at the moment, but she was really thinking about the detective.

Detective Hugo's sister shook her head—

"Perhaps my current reputation in the Sinnoh League has caused you to have some kind of high expectations for the title of champion. But in reality, the situation in the United States is not the same as ours. In their case, Mr. Adek, who had previously been the champion, had not taken on the role of champion outside of attending the Challenge for several years. Now, the four heavenly kings under the champion are the four heavenly kings who act as the chief of the alliance on a daily basis. ”

"Hmm...... Let's just say that, but usually it's mainly Lian Wu who works. ”

Gardelia, who was on the other side of the screen, also nodded affirmatively.

This also means that a large part of the power and glory that should have been integrated and condensed on the championship title has already been imperceptibly transferred to other places outside the championship. Just like the protagonists of the old myths and legends that have been scattered for many years, in this case, people will not have a crazy belief in the aura of the title that is akin to worshipping the gods. ”

"But there will still be people who are not convinced, right?" Junsha asked rhetorically.

"Battles in secret rooms, loaned Pokémon, few witnesses, groundbreaking battle rules, tactics that can only be established under special circumstances...... Not only Pokémon trainers, but even casual ordinary people will be resentful of such a result, and they will come up with ideas like, "If I participate, I can win." Moreover, it was Detective Hugo, and in the face of normal rules of battle, even a novice trainer who had just embarked on a journey would be nearly 100% sure that he would be able to defeat him. ”

"No, for Hugo, as long as the other party is not pursuing the glory of the championship or something, that kind of unreasonable metaphysical thing, the situation will be much easier to solve." The Sinnoh champion points the way.

"That person, in the face of a battle that he can't agree to, he will admit defeat without saying a word. He's such a person. ”

Gardelia in the light curtain also nodded approvingly, she had seen such a scene with her own eyes in the past in the Sinnoh Battle Pioneer Zone.

Zhulan continued: "Only those who are attached to the title will be troubled by the existence of the challenger. And for Hugo, who has no desire to win at all, no matter how many people are eyeing the title he holds, he will not have any psychological pressure. I even suspect that Hugo probably never thought he would win the title, and he probably didn't think he could really beat Mr. Adek until the battle on the Tower of Heaven was decided. ”

"But in that case, wouldn't the matter of becoming a champion seriously disrupt Hugo's daily life in the United Territories?"

"Then just hide your identity." Zhulan said disapprovingly.

"Regardless of the regional alliance, there are no rules prohibiting title holders from hiding their identities or using pseudonyms, and Hugo himself should be able to come up with more creative solutions. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, it is really difficult to advance and retreat in the United Nations, and for Hugo, it is good to move again. ”

Just like before, at Sinnoh's time.

Speaking of hiding her identity, Zhulan suddenly looked at the light curtain projected by Lothom: "Speaking of which, this matter should have been top secret, right?" Gardelia, will there be any hidden dangers if you call us directly like this? ”

The superpower king of the United Region pouted: "There is no one else around me, and I have also used my superpower to make sound insulation." So, as long as you two don't talk about it, it's fine. ”

"That's fine." Zhulan, who was in the basement of the Mori no Yokan, and Miss Junsha looked at each other and nodded, "Then, Hugo in the hospital will ask you." ”

"Of course."

Seeing that Zhulan had a general understanding of the incident, Gadelia breathed a sigh of relief, and then cut off the communication.

The light curtain disappeared, and the basement suddenly darkened a lot. And Miss Junsha was still in a dumbfounded state, looking at Zhulan who was calmly operating Lothom's mobile phone.

She really couldn't understand why Zhulan, as her sister, could be so calm in the face of the bombshell news that Hugo had become the champion of the United Nations.

Except for the brief surprise at the beginning, she didn't seem to have any other feelings at all, and her mixed feelings that seemed to be a mouthful of old blood in her heart didn't show any on the face of the Sinnoh champion.

Seeing Junsha's still stunned look, Zhulan chuckled unexpectedly.

"Officer Junsha, you should know that I successfully challenged the previous champion in an open battle ten years ago, and this is why I am the new champion of the Sinnoh Alliance, right?"

"It's nature." Junsha replied.

In the Sinnoh region, the shocking history of the battle queen is known to everyone.

"So you know what my brother who squeezed next to me said to me after I stepped off the podium?"

"Congratulations or something, right?" Junsha reasoned that the detective was at least very common sense when it came to dealing with people.

He did simply say hello, but the next half of the sentence was ......"

Congratulations on winning the championship, and don't take credit for this achievement.

And Zhulan's response at that time was even more ruthless-

Of course, you still need to say it.

The title won by such hard work is not the result of the negligence of the opponent or the help of others, so be proud of it if you have won the game.

At that time, the young new champion, now looked at Junsha quietly-

"Hugo's winning the championship in United is his business, and when he wakes up, he will naturally deal with it himself. And we also have to continue our work in this Western-style museum. Let's go upstairs, Miss Officer. ”
