Pokémon: Start with an Admiral Crab!

"Water drop pendant?"

Wang Yao repeated a sentence.

"So what's the use of that thing?"

Although the development of the matter was different from what was expected, Wang Yao still found out from Mu Ye the objective of their mission.

"I don't know - this is something only the captain has the authority to know. I only saw photos of the mission target before I set off."

Mu Ye was telling the truth.

He was just a team leader, with only three people under his command...his status was only slightly higher than that of the ordinary members.

Wang Yao took out the illustrated book.

"Ding! Insufficient information!"

Perhaps the name is not specific enough and the encyclopedia does not record any information about this item.

But it was no use asking Mu Ye again. Apart from seeing pictures of the quest items, he didn't even know the type of Pokémon that could escape with the items.

All we know is that it was on a flying Pokémon... and that's only because the search team didn't find any footprints.

"Zizzi——!"

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of electricity coming from the walkie-talkie in Wang Yao's hand.

This is what he just found from Mu Ye.

"Attention Team A - the target is heading in your direction!"

A middle-aged man's voice came from the intercom.

"Ok?"

Wang Yao cast a curious look at his good brother.

"Um... This is Team C's captain, Kaf... He should be in the dense forest to the northwest..."

With chicken soup right at his lips, Mu Ye started to sell out his teammates so quickly!

"You know what to say!"

Wang Yao pressed the call button and put the walkie-talkie to Mu Ye's mouth.

"...Team A received! The paralysis trap has been set!"

When communicating with other team leaders...Mu Ye's voice sounded a little arrogant.

"Well... I have a Queen Flower, which I placed at the exit of the forest. Its paralysis powder is very effective..."

Mu Ye coughed lightly and explained carefully.

"——You coward! Go and catch that queen of flowers for me!"

Wang Yao gave the order without even turning his head.

"Ji Ka~"

The armored warrior major general immediately took the order and set off.

"What's your captain's name? Are there any letter-level hunter leaders participating this time?"

Wang Yao asked again.

"Our captain is called Carl, who is Kaf's elder brother..."

Mu Ye was shocked... This guy is indeed a tough guy in the underworld, and he even knows the information of the hunter leader...

It was only after he was promoted to team leader that he realized that the leaders of the hunter organization were designated by letters of the alphabet!

So Mu dared not hide anything anymore.

"This operation was independently commanded by Captain Carl... There was no leader involved."

"…The specific operation will consist of four teams, each with three to five people…"

"Our captain's trump card Pokémon is a Bomb... I heard he lent it to his brother before he set off..."

"...Also, our temporary base is hidden outside the wild wilderness area..."

Mu Ye spilled all the news he knew, just like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

"Ji Ka!"

Bang-!

As he was speaking, a familiar figure appeared in front of Mu Ye.

The figure was exactly Mu Ye's queen of flowers, but its eyes had started to spin and its huge petals had become broken.

"…Speak to your captain and tell him that you have already trapped the target Pokémon. Find a reason to lure them all over here."

Wang Yao already had a general understanding of the other party's strength.

There isn't even an alphabet hunter!

Only the team leader of each team has a Pokémon, and the Houndoom responsible for tracking the target has not undergone any battle training...even most of the ordinary members are still using guns?

They are just a bunch of chickens and dogs! Trash among trash!

The only thing to consider now is how to wipe out the enemy without letting any escape...

"That's...okay!"

Mu Ye hesitated for two seconds to show respect.

Press the call button on the intercom.

"...Team A has found the target! The location is near the forest by the sea..."

"…There is a group of wild Venus flytraps here! The target has been eaten by them—request for reinforcements!"

Mu Ye pretended to sound a little anxious.

"..."

Captain Carl at the Hunter Base frowned slightly after hearing the news - how unlucky!

However, there are indeed many poison-type Pokémon living in the forest near Crimson City... and Venusaur is a social Pokémon, so it's not surprising.

"...Received - I'll ask other teams to provide support!"

After hesitating for a moment, Carl did not inform all the action teams of the news, but contacted Group C led by his younger brother Kaf alone.

"...Team A has found the target on the beach, but it's right in the territory of the Venus flytrap... You should be able to deal with it with the rotten wood demon I lent you..."

It's not that he doubted Muye's signal for help, but Carl wanted his brother Kaf to accumulate more merits out of selfishness...

Therefore, only Team C was sent to provide reinforcements, so that the credit for retrieving the mission items would go to his younger brother!

"Team C received——!"

Kraft's suppressed excited voice came from the intercom.

……

"Velvet plant?"

"…You're quite good at making up stories!"

Wang Yao gave an appreciative smile.

"Hehe... In the wild wilderness area - there really is a Venus flytrap..."

Mu Ye smiled awkwardly. How can you become a team leader without some brains these days...

This place is not far from the wild wilderness area north of Qianhong City, so the appearance of the Venus flytrap is not surprising.

As a member of the Hunter organization, he doesn't know how to use his brain... He'll be a gun-toting minion his whole life!

"Giant Crab...hide them in the burrow first!"

Now that the enemy has been lured here, Wang Yao should also prepare...

Despise the enemy strategically and take the enemy seriously tactically.

Even if only a few low-level teams from the hunter organization came, Wang Yao would not take it lightly.

"Hmmmm..."

Just as Wang Yao was about to lead his team to hide in the forest, a nimble figure appeared above the camp.

"This is?"

With the help of the firelight, Wang Yao saw the teardrop-shaped pendant hanging on the other person's neck at first glance!

A teardrop-shaped Pokémon that can fly!

"Is this the tool you're looking for?"

Wang Yao turned his head and asked.

“Yes… this is it!”

Mu Ye hurriedly said - he didn't want to be buried underground by this guy named Dakodo.

If he really hides in a hole in the ground... this ruthless guy will most likely not dig him out!

"Mmm..."

The rain-winged moth hovered hesitantly in the air. The pleasant smell it smelled came from Wang Yao's big stew pot!

However, the humans and Pokémon in front of him seemed a little dangerous... After hesitating for a moment, Rainwing Moth decided to slip away first...

"Trying to run—shoot it down!"

Wang Yao would not miss the opportunity to pick up a bargain.

Sizzle! Whoosh! Boom…

Water guns, stones, poison needles, missile needles, sparks... long-range attacks gathered from five different types of energy attributes surrounded the Rain-Wing Moth!

Hesitation will lead to defeat... The rain-winged moth, attracted by the pleasant smell, had its strength drained away in an instant.

Fortunately, Wang Yao's Pokémon were all holding back... most of their attacks were just aimed at blocking the Rainwing's movement, and only a small amount of damage hit Rainwing.

"Hey~"

The little fire horse jumped high and caught the falling Rain-wing Moth.

It has lowered the temperature of the flame and will not burn the other party.

“Well done~”

Wang Yao smiled and touched the horse's head.

Cowardly Bug also skillfully took out the medicine spray from his backpack and handed it to the trainer.

Squeak! Squeak!

After briefly treating the Rain-wing Moth's injuries, Wang Yao took the pendant off its body.

"Is this the water drop pendant?"

Wang Yao took the pendant in his hand and suddenly felt a surging wave coming towards him!

“…This feeling is quite strange.”

Wang Yao held it in his hand and felt it curiously for a while.

In addition to being able to feel the special scent of the sea, it seems to have a slightly refreshing effect.

“…Is it related to the sea?”

The little fire horse also leaned over and sniffed curiously, but immediately took two steps back with some disgust.

"Err!"

The time he had just caught the Rainwing Moth was too short to feel anything, but now that he was close to the pendant, the little fire horse felt a strong water energy...

Due to the nature of Fire Pokémon's aversion to water, it didn't want to get close to this thing.

After thinking about it, Wang Yao took a photo of the pendant using the illustrated guide.

"…You can ask Professor Oak when you have time."

Now that the thing is really in hand, there is no need to transfer it to somewhere else.

After putting the pendant into his personal bag, Wang Yao commanded the giant crab and the armored Tyrannosaurus to dig a pit and set an ambush.

According to the famous trap master Meowth, among all the operations to capture Pikachu, the pit trap has the highest success rate!

The cost is also the lowest...

On the route that Group C members must pass, several two-meter-wide and five-meter-deep pits were dug...The pit traps were covered with simple camouflage covers made of dead branches and fallen leaves.

Although his own known combat power is ten times greater than that of his opponent, Wang Yao's strategy for deploying troops relies heavily on the word "stable"!

……

"Humph... no wonder we heard gunshots just now... turns out Mu Ye from Group A is planning to eat alone!"

Team C leader Kaf sneered, hung his rifle behind his back, and immediately stopped several team members who were still searching southward.

After taking back the useless Dalubi, Carl changed direction directly.

"Let's go! Head to the location of the gunshot!"

Kraft waved his hand and said confidently.

"The credit this time... must go to our Group C for coming out on top!"

"Long live Boss Kraft!"

"I knew that with the boss's ability, he would definitely be the first to achieve great success - Mu Ye from Group A is not even worthy of carrying the boss' shoes or serving him!"

The four gun-wielding minions under Kraft cheered excitedly.

……

ten minutes later.

“Ouch… bastard—who dug the trap!?”

Kraft finally stood up by holding on to the inner wall of the pit. His left foot was in terrible pain, as if it had been sprained when he fell.

"Boss!"

"Boss, are you okay? We'll get you out right now!"

In order to show off his power in front of his younger brothers, Kraft took the lead and walked in front.

Of course, he also fell into the pit trap first...

Several of the younger men took off their gun belts and leather belts, connected them into a rope, and pulled Kraft up with great effort.

"This must be a trap set by those lone Pokémon hunters..."

Kraft drew his conclusion based on his rich combat experience.

Otherwise...it couldn't have been dug up by a passing trainer, right?

It would be too embarrassing for him to fall in...

"Yes! The boss is right!"

Younger Brother A immediately agreed.

"That's right! Those unorganized Pokémon hunters have no rules!"

Brother B added.

"Boss - I'll go ahead this time! I'll lead the way for you!"

Little brother C is the smartest and knows how to help the boss at the critical moment!

"Boss, your foot is injured - let me carry you!"

My little brother Ding is the one who knows best how to make progress.

"Me too!"

Brother Wu is not very smart, but he knows that brother D is the one who knows how to make progress.

In this way, two people were responsible for carrying Kafka, one was in front to explore the way, one carried the extra luggage, and one was responsible for additional lighting and vigilance.

Kraft's C Group sets off again!

Ten seconds later...

Crack...Boom——!

A huge deep pit with a radius of ten meters instantly wiped out Group C.

"...Didn't you say he had a rotten wood demon?"

Wang Yao, who was hiding behind the bushes, watched this scene... and cast a puzzled look at the progressive young man Mu Ye.

"Um... this... I did see it before we set off..."

Mu Ye wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Isn't this Kraft usually very cool...how come he became so cool?

Where's your Pokémon?

Where is the rotten wood monster that your brother Carl gave you?

Save it!

Mu really didn't expect that with just one... um, with just a few dozen pit traps, Kafu, who usually relied on his brother, the captain, to be arrogant, was defeated...

"Forget it... Tyrannosaurus Rex, coward, go down and receive the prisoners..."

Wang Yao waved his hands and didn't care much about it.

"Roar……"

The Iron-Armored Tyrannosaurus jumped into the pit first.

"what--!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from the bottom of the cave.

"..."

The sudden scream made Wang Yao stunned for two seconds... and then he realized that he shouldn't have let the Tyrannosaurus Rex receive the prisoners of war.

……

"Zizizi—Captain Carl! Something terrible is happening!"

The intercom brought the loyal voice of Team A's leader, Mu Ye, asking for help.

"……what happened?"

Carl asked, frowning.

"The rotten wood demon was entangled by the leader of the Venus Flies...sizzle...the other wild Venus Flies took the opportunity to attack us!"

"...Captain Kafu's legs were broken by the vine whip, and the rotten wood demon didn't obey orders... We are no match for him at all!"

"Ah... ugh ah my legs! My legs!"

At the same time, the intercom was filled with Mu Ye's anxious report and Kafu's painful shouts.

"Karf! What's wrong with you!? Karf!"

Hearing his brother's screams, Carl could no longer sit still.

Da da da! Da da da!

There was continuous gunfire in the background noise of the communication!

"Captain - why haven't the other teams come to reinforce?!"

There was anger and sadness in Mu Ye's voice.

"This……"

Carl was silent... He thought that with the presence of the Wooddemon, the ordinary Pokémon in the forest would never be an obstacle.

Since Mu Ye has already determined the target's location... Kafu and Team C of the Rotten Wood Demon just have to wait to claim the credit.

I didn't expect... this to happen...

"Hold on for now...Kaf! You..."

Carl packed his equipment and set out to rescue his brother.

"Captain! We can't hold on any longer! Captain—Crack!"

In the end, amid Mu Ye's desperate fighting, the walkie-talkie was crushed to pieces by the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

...But not as broken as Kraft's legs.
