Chapter 1236 Enthusiastic Big Dog
The third observation station.
When the group arrived, they not only saw Aoki, but also Xinli.
"Hey! Good afternoon, everyone!"
The woman dressed as a man smiled and waved her hand beside her head, saying, "It's been a long time since I've seen you all!"
"Sister Xinli!"
Nemo excitedly stepped forward, "Did the president agree?"
The student council president's mind is now filled with plans to capture paradoxical species. She's been bored for too long since Kashiwagi left, and now something interesting has finally come along!
"You really are full of energy."
Xin Li couldn't help but sigh, and even glanced at the listless Aoki beside her.
Aoki: "?"
Nemo clenched her fists in a pleading gesture, staring at her expectantly, eager for an answer.
Xin Li sighed helplessly, "Of course I agreed, otherwise why do you think I would be here?"
She was originally stationed at the fourth observation station on the lower level, but after Aoki contacted Yaji, she was dispatched to reinforce the first observation station.
After all, the future Holy Swordsmen and the ancient Ho-Oh Guard are moving up the ranks. Poppy is strong, but she is too young to shoulder some important responsibilities.
The reason she was kept at the first observation station was because it would be safer to go higher up.
Who would have thought this would happen?
"Thank you, President!"
Nemo was overjoyed and immediately turned to her friends to tell them, "We can go together now!"
Cypress nodded, while Papa and Peony exchanged glances.
Given their abilities, it would be difficult for them to participate in the capture mission, but to ask them to turn back now?
It's a rare occasion for the four of them to get together again, and it's absolutely unacceptable for them to part ways after only two days together.
However, since they are acting together, they can provide support to Kashiwagi or Nemo, just like they did when they underwent Yaji's test.
When do you plan to set off?
Xin Li asked, hands on her hips.
Kashiwagi said, "Let's go downstairs and see the Doctor first... It's getting late, do you provide dinner here?"
The greatest benefit brought by the Alliance's presence in Zone Zero was that it guided them to a safe and reliable route, which enabled them to successfully reach the Third Observatory by evening, a journey that would normally take a day and a half.
If you were to ride a motorcycle lizard, it might be even faster.
But everyone came with the intention of exploring again, and they weren't in a hurry.
"Please come in."
Aoki led a few people into the third observation station.
The massive building has undergone a complete renovation, with all the old equipment either removed or repaired, and now it is fully equipped.
Aside from the two Elite Four members and Kashiwagi and his group, the Third Observatory currently has over fifty people, including but not limited to researchers, technicians, transportation personnel, and logistics staff.
Everyone had dinner together in the not-so-large cafeteria, and the atmosphere was quite lively.
Naturally, many people came to Kashiwagi for autographs, and he was already used to his name being known to the public.
What puzzled him was that there was clearly no work for Aoki to do at the third observation station, so why was he so listless?
The answer soon became clear.
Are you going out?
Kashiwagi watched as Aoki rode away on a tropical dragon under the night sky.
Aoki nodded. "There's a challenger tomorrow morning, so I'm asking Xinli to stay here tonight and cover for me."
"..."
Kashiwagi looked at him with a puzzled expression. "You're too responsible... Haven't you considered handing over Jinhui Dojo to someone else?"
Aoki slightly raised his eyelids and said earnestly, "If you have a suitable recommender, please be sure to contact me!"
Even if we have each other, we won't contact each other!
His school is short-staffed!
Kashiwagi chuckled, pretending he hadn't said anything, but secretly thought that Padia was desperately short of manpower.
With so many outstanding teenagers at Orange Academy, is it really that difficult to become a gym leader?
He felt that there were quite a few suitable leaders in the Tianxing team.
These people happen to specialize in a particular attribute.
Huh?
Maybe I can persuade the Tianxing team to join me?
The moment the idea formed in Kashiwagi's mind, Yaji's gentle smiling face flashed before his eyes again.
Hmm... let's not rush things.
He has no immediate plans to directly clash with Ye Ci.
Watching Aoki leave, Kashiwagi turned slightly to the side and saw Xinli walking slowly towards him.
She looked up at the departing tropical dragon and chuckled, "Uncle Aoki is such a diligent person, truly a role model for us."
"Doesn't Chairman Yeci intend to relieve him of some of his burdens?" Kashiwagi asked.
Xin Li shook her head and said, "Of course he did, but Uncle Aoki himself didn't want to. He said, 'As an adult, I should take on more responsibility; it's not time to retire yet!'"
She vividly imitated Aoki's weak and listless tone.
He then chuckled to himself.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Xinli met Bai Mu's calm face and continued, "You may not know, but the Padia Alliance wasn't always this peaceful. It was the chairman who made everything possible."
"Uncle Aoki started by helping Chairman Yaji, and it wasn't until Hachisaku-sensei, myself, and Popi gradually joined that the Padia League became a proper organization. As the champion of Ore, you should understand that, right?"
She turned her head and asked.
Kashiwa remained silent; he knew little about the history of Padia.
However, it is not difficult to see from the simulations of the dragon trainers back then that Padia was very different from what it is now.
The Four Heavenly Kings only appeared after Ye Ci took office as president.
Previously, there was only the chief champion.
"It's not easy."
He responded softly.
Xin Li chuckled, noticing he wasn't in the mood for conversation, waved her hand, and turned to leave, saying, "I'm going to sleep now. See you tomorrow, champion."
"See you tomorrow."
The cypress tree remains standing in the same spot.
His thoughts remained on the ancient Phoenix Guard and the future Holy Swordsman, wondering what they were thinking.
If they were ordinary wild Pokémon, the conflict between the two sides might not be impossible to resolve.
Just like Ash often does, clearing up the "misunderstanding" is all it takes. And since the "misunderstandings" are usually caused by Team Rocket, they're easy to resolve.
However, the paradoxical Pokémon cannot be compared to each other.
"Fortunately, I am quite capable."
He muttered.
Someone else might not have been able to handle this incident well.
On the other hand, without him, where would the original historical trajectory of District Zero have gone?
It's estimated that Dr. Futu AI may not be able to save him.
It's highly likely that the Padian Alliance will not develop Zone Zero.
Little Ash's Gang: Healing Mastiff Godfather?
wrong.
The incident occurred in the first half of the year when the Godfather of the Mastiff was seriously injured and in dire need of treatment with a secret seasoning.
Peony found her teammates from the Tianxing team, and Clavel tested the Tianxing team to decide whether or not to expel them, all of which happened in the first half of the year.
At that time, Ash was making new friends.
So, does this mean that the "main" storyline of Padia has nothing to do with Ash?
Not right.
In the world of anime, Ash is the most respected character, so how could he not have a chance to participate in the "main storyline"?
I'm afraid... they've changed the main character!
Kashiwagi felt a pang of unease before finishing the final chapter of the journey, but quickly dismissed the thought.
how could be.
Ash's IP, which has lasted for twenty years, can be changed just like that? Do you think it's Digimon?
Even with Digimon, they occasionally bring up the original protagonist to play the emotional card. The production team should learn from past mistakes and understand what changing the protagonist would lead to.
Kashiwagi stopped thinking about it and was called back to the observation station by the voice of Pipa from behind.
-
The next day.
The sky is bright.
Thick clouds, like a gray wall, loomed over Zone Zero.
But it cannot prevent sunlight from penetrating.
The morning dew moistens the green grass, giving it renewed vitality.
The third observation station quickly went from quiet to bustling, and Nemo and the others woke up looking slightly tired.
"Ah~~ what was that sound last night?"
"It felt like a dozen howling tails were singing in my ear."
"Eeee!?"
"I know it wasn't you; they were just using an analogy."
Kashiwagi suppressed the restless, howling tail.
The Zero Zone was even more unsettling at night than before, with strange howls frequently echoing throughout the canyon in the middle of the night.
Sometimes far and sometimes close, sometimes big and sometimes small.
This kept Nemo and the others from sleeping well.
The people at the third observation station seemed quite calm, as if they were already used to the commotion in the middle of the night.
Aoki returned at some point and said upon hearing this, "You'll get used to it. Ever since the ancient Phoenix King's Guard moved upwards, these kinds of comments have started to increase."
"You mean the Paradox Pokémon are making noise?"
Peony asked.
Aoki nodded. "It's very likely."
The group exchanged bewildered glances. Was the implication that the ancient Ho-Oh guards had suppressed these restless and eccentric Pokémon?
After all, in everyone's impression, Zone Zero is very quiet at night.
"Isn't it the future Holy Swordsman who's protecting the stability of Zone Zero?" Pipa couldn't help but ask.
Aoki looked up at him. "Does that mean they are the same as the ancient Phoenix King's guards? The opposition between the two does not mean that their behavioral logic is conflicting."
"But the future Holy Swordsman—"
"We all know they've stabilized Zone Zero, but aren't we still planning to subdue them?"
"..."
Piper was speechless.
The future Holy Swordsmen see the ancient Ho-Oh Guard as a destabilizing factor, but don't they also see both of them as destabilizing factors?
Aoki said, "There are very few ways in the world that can achieve the best of both worlds. Adults value efficiency, and a win-win situation is the best, but it is too difficult to achieve one."
Code of conduct for adults!
Nemo, Pipa, and Peony seemed lost in thought.
Kashiwagi ate his meal silently, thinking that seeking a win-win situation normally was difficult, but adding Satoshi would definitely make it easier!
After meal.
The group bid farewell to Aoki and Shinri and headed to the fourth and zeroth observation stations on the lower level.
After watching them leave, Xinli also got into the car heading to the first observation station.
"I'm leaving this place in your care, Uncle Aoki!"
Aoki remained silent, only waving goodbye.
lower level.
Suddenly, the view turned pitch black, leaving only the faint fluorescence of the glowing crystals on the wall.
It took everyone a while to adjust before they continued on their way.
"This area has changed hands; it's now Leton territory. It should be safer than up here?" Kashiwagi asked Nemo.
Nemo said, "Yes! The professor said that under the power of Guleton, the wild Pokémon and Paradox Pokémon living here have become very well-behaved!"
It's clear that Paradox Pokémon aren't much different from regular Pokémon; you still have to use force to get them to obey.
Smooth sailing all the way downhill.
Kashiwa looked around and found many wild Pokémon hiding in the shadows, but there wasn't a single Paradox Pokémon.
"It's so safe——"
"Ow!!"
A roar came from below.
Then, the crimson figure, like a leaping flame, suddenly pounced on them—or rather, Kashiwagi.
Kashiwagi instinctively dodged, but the opponent was much faster than he had expected.
"Ee-ah!"
The roaring tail reacted, but was swept away by the opponent's tail, like being thrown away as trash.
boom!
There was a loud bang.
Kashiwagi was pushed down by the attacker.
The thick tongue licked his hand and then nestled in his arms.
Nemo exclaimed in surprise, "Gulerton? How did it become so—"
enthusiasm?
Kashiwagi struggled to get up and was equally puzzled by Guleton's behavior.
I remember the last time we met, it was so aloof after being defeated by Millerton, always looking at them with a very intimidating gaze.
How come it turned into the big dog that the neighbor keeps after I haven't seen it for a few months?
Did you eat some menthol mint?
"Ah, gah!"
An angry roar came from Milton.
It suddenly shoved Guleton aside so that Kashiwagi could get up smoothly, and then looked at its nemesis with a threatening gaze.
"Gah!"
Who gave you permission to get close to my trainer!
So Milton seemed uninterested in it and tried to bypass Milton to continue attacking the cypress.
Peony, hiding behind Nemo, suddenly asked, "Is it looking for something?"
Looking for something?
Kashiwa snapped his fingers thoughtfully.
"Genga~!"
A Shiny Gengar appeared with a large belly, allowing the trainer to reach into its four-dimensional belly to retrieve something.
Kashiwagi touched it and pulled out a sandwich.
"Ow!"
Therefore, Leighton's eyes lit up, and he unconsciously licked the corners of his mouth, revealing a longing expression.
Millerton turned around at the aroma and found it was his favorite sandwich. Without hesitation, he opened his mouth to take a bite.
“Gua ...
Therefore, Milton was furious and pounced on him, knocking Milton away.
The two large lizards rolled around in a ball and engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand combat!
Kashiwagi said to Botan, "You guessed right, this guy came for the sandwich."
No wonder she was licking his hands and shoving at his chest earlier. Was she craving the sandwich he ate for breakfast?
Why doesn't Dr. Fortu make a few for it?
Nemo laughed and said, "You two are both gluttons!"
"How embarrassing."
Piper looked disgusted; he disliked both Leighton and Milton, as they were both big troubles!
The Roaring Tail, which had just been kicked away, ran back and angrily rejoined the battle.
Then he was hit and thrown into the air again.
It was of a high level, but it was clearly no match for the two in melee combat. Just as it was about to launch its third attack, Kashiwa grabbed its tentacles and dragged it away.
"Alright, alright, this is none of your business."
Ignoring the two battling lizards, the group continued their descent.
The fourth observatory was soon arrived. There were more people stationed here than at the third observatory. They were mostly researchers who were studying the crystals that were ubiquitous in Zone Zero.
Dr. Furtu was among them!
"Children, you have finally arrived."
He seemed to have noticed their arrival beforehand and welcomed them with a smile.
Kashiwagi was not surprised by this, as Futu AI had previously mentioned that Zone Zero was full of hidden surveillance.
"father!"
Piper can now address Dr. Fortu quite normally, and seems to have fully accepted the robot in front of him who has his father's memories.
Dr. Futu smiled gently, "I already know what you want to do. When you go back, I will guide you to find them through surveillance."
