Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Seeing that Ruan Yaoyao was really angry, Lin Yi quickly put away his playful smile, took a step forward, clasped his hands together and begged for mercy:

"Oh, Yaoyao, I was wrong. Don't be angry. I will explain it to you seriously now."

Ruan Yaoyao rolled her eyes at him and snorted:

"Okay, then tell me now, and don't tease me again this time."

Although he was still angry, he still wanted to hear what happened, so he stood still patiently.

Lin Yi cleared his throat, regained his serious expression, and continued:

"Although the fossil pterosaur's ancestors were not rock-type, it now has rock attributes, and water is still a big threat to it. But don't worry, with its body, it won't be in any serious trouble if it falls into the water for a while."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the sea.

"See? It has thick skin and great buoyancy, so it won't sink to the bottom. Besides, Pokémon have some self-rescue skills. The Pterosaur still has its flying instinct. Even if its wings are soaked by water, it can barely stay afloat by flapping a few times."

As he was speaking, the sea surface began to surge violently.

Because the fat on its body was too thick, the fossil pterosaur struggled on the sea for a long time before suddenly realizing that it could not sink.

So, its huge body broke through the waves, gasping for breath, and swam towards the shore in a panic.

As it swam, it let out a few wails from time to time, obviously frightened by this incident.

"Roar...roar..."

The fossil pterosaur struggled to get closer to the shore, and looked at Lin Yi with wet eyes full of resentment, as if accusing it of what had just happened.

Seeing this, Lin Yi crossed his arms and pretended to be serious: "What are you looking at? This is just the beginning."

After hearing this, the fossil pterosaur drooped its head, but it had no strength to resist and could only lie obediently on the shallows.

Ruan Yaoyao couldn't bear to watch, and murmured softly: "Lin Yi, isn't that a bit too harsh? It's already so tired."

Lin Yi shook his head slightly, leaned close to Ruan Yaoyao's ear and whispered:

"Yaoyao, you don't understand. Being soft-hearted to it is harming it. It originally had great potential, but now it's so fat that it has no fighting power at all. If we don't take ruthless measures to deal with it now, it will be completely useless in the future."

Ruan Yaoyao pursed her lips. Although she still felt pity, she also understood that what Lin Yi said made sense.

"Drip-"

A sharp horn sounded suddenly, breaking the tense training atmosphere at the seaside.

A military green jeep, like a giant steel beast, came speeding over from a distance, carrying a cloud of dust.

"Dad, father-in-law, are the things I want ready?"

Lin Yi rushed forward, raised his hand to block the glaring sunlight, squinted at Lin Guochang and Ruan Tianli who were in the driver's seat of the jeep, his eyes revealing a bit of eagerness and anticipation.

"Ready."

Lin Guochang grinned, stretched his strong arms out of the car window, and made a cool OK gesture.

Then he turned his eyes and looked at the pterosaur fossil not far away, which seemed to be frightened by the roar of the jeep and collapsed to the ground, lying on the beach without daring to move, and raised his eyebrows:

"You asked me to give you this stretch of coast where I usually do private training, and you specifically told me to keep it secret and quiet. Then you urged us to prepare these things in a hurry. All this fuss was just to train this fat dragon?"

"Ah."

Lin Yi responded briefly, raised his hand and threw out the Poké Ball, releasing the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

"Go, take the boxes off the car."

At his command, the Blazing Roaring Tiger perked up, strode towards the jeep, and easily carried the heavy box.

Lin Yi made all the arrangements and turned to look at Ruan Tianli, his eyes full of expectation: "Father-in-law, has my application been approved?"

"Once you're down, just take your ID card and go directly to the Alliance. You can do it anytime."

Ruan Tianli folded his arms across his chest, leaned back in his chair, glanced at Lin Yi, and his puzzled expression instantly twisted into the shape of a "川" character.

"How did you get that guy to agree to meet with you? Last time you made him... uh, mentally ill."

"Who are you talking about?"

Ruan Yaoyao blinked her eyes, her face full of confusion. She walked forward and tugged at the corner of Lin Yi's clothes and asked softly.

Lin Yi patted the back of Ruan Yaoyao's hand and explained patiently:

"I have something I want to ask the God of Knowledge, Youxi, for advice. I have no other choice but to ask my father-in-law to help me apply to the Alliance."

"Last time, this bastard kept asking Uxie questions endlessly in order to find out the unpopular details of Pokémon evolution. His string of tricky questions was like a string of cannonballs, and he almost drove her crazy. The entire alliance was shaken, and Uxie has only recently recovered.

The alliance was originally planning to reject your request for a meeting, but who knew that Yukshi would get so excited that he insisted on meeting you."

Ruan Tianli shook his head, his face full of expression saying "I don't understand, but I am shocked."

Finally, he waved his hand at Ruan Yaoyao: "Forget it, I don't care about you, Yaoyao, go home and eat."

"You guys go ahead, I'll stay here with Lin Yi."

Ruan Yaoyao tilted her head and smiled sweetly at her father. Her tone was gentle but revealed unquestionable determination.

Ruan Tianli's face twitched, and he was just about to say something to persuade them, saying that the wind was strong at the seaside and that he didn't know when the training would end, so they should not be hungry or tired.

As a result, Lin Guochang seemed to see through his old friend's thoughts and stepped on the accelerator first. The jeep instantly shot out like an arrow, and the wheels raised a large amount of dust.

"Lin Guochang you fucking ..."

"We won't disturb your world of two."

Lin Guochang's hearty voice drowned out Ruan Tianli's shouting and cursing. As the jeep went away, it became increasingly fainter until it disappeared in the sea breeze.

"Roar……"

The fossil pterosaur poked its head out timidly and stared vigilantly in the direction where the jeep was going away. It did not raise its head until the raised dust completely dissipated in the sea breeze and it was sure that there was no movement anymore.

It shook off the wet sea water on its body and was about to muster up all its strength to climb out of the water and return to the shore.

At this moment, Lin Yi's eyes flashed, and he quickly moved to the box next to him. He stretched out his hand and pulled out an assault rifle? !

The dark and cold metal body of the gun glows with a cold and hard luster in the sunlight. The buttstock is solid, the trigger is brand new, and the realism is shocking.

Ruan Yaoyao widened her eyes, covered her mouth subconsciously, and almost screamed out.

Lin Yi, however, acted as if nothing had happened. He held the gun steadily with both hands, pointed the muzzle at the fossil pterosaur without hesitation, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Da da da da——"

In an instant, gunshots rang out on the beach, and a series of rubber bullets were sprayed out like a torrential rain, with sharp whistles, heading straight for the fossil pterosaur.

The fossil pterosaur had no time to react. It only felt a sudden pain all over its body. The dense impact force was like countless heavy punches hitting it, making it grimace in pain.

The huge body retreated uncontrollably into the sea, splashing large amounts of water, and each retreat plowed deep grooves on the beach.

"Lin Yi, you..."

Ruan Yaoyao's face was filled with astonishment. She stared at the gun in Lin Yi's hand with her eyes wide open. Her mind went blank in an instant, and her heart was filled with confusion and shock.

This is a gun! In her opinion, carrying a gun without permission is a serious crime. Could it be that the thing that Dad and Uncle Lin prepared for Lin Yi to train the fossil pterosaur was actually this prohibited thing?

"This is not a real gun. It's made of rubber. It can't hurt anyone, but it still hurts if it hits you."

Lin Yi seemed to have guessed what she was thinking. While he was changing the bullet quickly, he took out a rubber bullet from the magazine and shook it in front of Ruan Yaoyao. Then he let out a long sigh and explained helplessly:

"This thing is at most a dangerous toy. As long as you don't hit vital parts, even if you shoot at people, they won't get hurt. But look at it!"

As he spoke, Lin Yi raised his arm violently, and pointed his slender finger directly at the fossilized pterosaur that was being beaten badly and had no power to fight back. His voice became high-pitched, full of anger:

"Look, how can a level 50 Pokémon be afraid of something like this? A level 50 Pokémon is truly a highly dangerous existence. When it bursts out with all its strength, its combat power is off the charts and it can easily destroy an army! How can such a cowardly Pokémon still have half the majesty of the former overlord?"

After saying this, as if to verify what he said thoroughly, he turned around abruptly and pointed the muzzle of his gun at the Blazing Roaring Tiger that had been watching the battle silently beside him.

"Da da da……"

Another volley of rubber bullets poured out, all hitting the Fiery Roaring Tiger's thick pectoral muscles.

What was surprising was that when the bullets hit the tight muscles, they bounced off and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

The blazing roaring tiger didn't move at all, just narrowed its eyes slightly, and when the shooting was over, it stretched out its claws with a look of satisfaction and scratched its chest, as if it had just been lightly brushed a few times, with a look on its face that said "That's it?", in stark contrast to the miserable appearance of the fossil pterosaur.
