Pokémon: Start with an Admiral Crab!

"I'm not some guru."

Wang Yao pulled Xinzi up from the ground.

"I just practiced with Master Shiba for a period of time."

Wang Yao simply has good physical strength, and he doesn't know any fighting techniques at all.

"Ah, is that so?"

Nobuko blinked.

Because the Seven Islands are still relatively closed, Nobuko has never watched any competitions in the Kanto region, nor does she know about Wang Yao's identity as the new champion of the tournament.

"That means that what Master Xiba left me is a truly powerful secret technique!"

"yeah--!"

Nobuko excitedly high-fived Kuai Quanlang and cheered.

"...So you were still doubtful before?"

Wang Yao said with some amusement.

"Hehe... Because I've been practicing for so long and there's still no effect..."

Xinzi scratched her head a little embarrassedly and said.

"But I have always regarded Master Sheba as my idol - I want to become a fighter as good as him in the future!"

Nobuko tried to justify her previous skeptical attitude.

Although Shiba is famous in Kanto as one of the Four Heavenly Kings...

But in the eyes of these fighters, the reason why Shiba is called "Master" is because of his own powerful strength.

"Maybe the intensity of the practice is too low. You have to completely drain all your energy during the day... and you also need a good chef."

Wang Yao looked at Xinzi's thin arms and legs and tried to summarize.

"And you don't have to go to the mountains to do this. You can do it at home if you're serious about exercising."

"Dumb tape! This place is very close to my home. I go home every night~"

Nobuko said in a relaxed tone.

"Come out--gull!"

Nobuko took out a light blue Poké Ball from behind her.

"Gah~"

A large-billed gull with a tuft of bangs on its head appeared next to Nobuko.

"Look, just ride on the back of a big-billed gull and you can get back to the second island in ten minutes."

Xinzi touched the head of the toucan.

"Gaou~"

There are several leather straps fixed on Xinzi's gull. Although there is no saddle, it can still take off with people as long as they hold the straps tightly.

With its wide bird-beak cargo box, the Toucan can be used for both carrying people and cargo.

Therefore, in the eyes of the indigenous people in the Seven Islands waters, the toucan is a very important life partner.

"That's really convenient."

Wang Yao nodded.

In his opinion, the toucan is quite useful in traveling, except for its slow flying speed.

For example, when going out to pick fruits, it is difficult for other flying Pokémon to bring all the collected fruits back to the camp in one go.

"Okay! Then we have to double the training today!"

"Let's do our best, Fast Boxer!!"

After a brief greeting, Nobuko, with renewed confidence, continued her training.

"Abby!"

Kuai Quanlang bumped fists with each other, equally full of fighting spirit.

It was very similar to Shiba’s “baseball” training at the time…

The Trainer and Pokémon play the roles of pitcher and batter respectively.

Nobuko threw the stone with force, and then the fast boxer punched from the opposite side to break the stone.

Maybe when Nobuko's strength grows to a certain level, the roles of pitcher and batter will be reversed...

"Then see you next time on the second island~"

Seeing that the other party was immersed in training again, Wang Yao also said goodbye to Xinzi in time.

"It seems that the only valuable place on this island is that beach - no wonder it is called Treasure Beach."

After coming down from the rocky mountain, Wang Yao no longer had any interest in exploring this small island with scarce resources.

"Come on, let's go back to the beach."

Wang Yao planned to stay on the beach for a while, and then ride the Megalodon back to the dock for the night in the evening.

At least the port island where the Sea Flame Horse is docked still has natural fresh water resources.

……

Wang Yao sat next to King Dai Dai and took out a carrot from his backpack to feed it to Snail Cap.

Click, click, click!

The giant tongue shell that evolved into a snail shell extended a circle of fine serrations and quickly chewed up a whole carrot and ate it.

"Eat more~Eat more~"

After feeding two carrots, Wang Yao took out a bag of dried fish and handed it to King Daidai.

"You feed the rest. Don't let Shellder starve."

"Yadong~"

Wang Yao brushed the grit off his pants, stood up and walked towards the armored warrior in the distance.

"Coward, did you find anything good?"

Although I don't have much hope, I might be able to find some earrings, necklaces, etc. on the beach full of tourists...

"Ji Ka~"

The armored warrior's shout was very excited.

rustling...

Two pairs of tiny forelimbs reached into the gap of the shell in front of the body and took out a pair of shiny small props from it.

"Oh~ You found a lot of things!"

Wang Yao squatted down, spread out the props, and examined them carefully one by one.

"This must be a fragment of a star...it's bigger than the one we found last time."

Wang Yao picked up a beautiful red piece and blew away the fine sand that was sticking to it.

On the sandbar leading to Honglian Island, Cowardly Bug once found a star fragment of the same material.

Although Wang Yao received a good offer from the owner of the prop store, he did not choose to trade.

Instead, it was preserved as a collection.

"The pull ring of a can, the button with patina..."

Wang Yao put the ordinary garbage into a pile.

"Ah, is this Poké Ball still usable?"

Wang Yao picked out a miniature high-grade ball, the black and yellow coating on it was already somewhat mottled.

Crack! Whoosh!

When pressing the zoom button, there is a noticeable tactile lag.

“It’s quite clean inside.”

Wang Yao opened the Poké Ball and took a look.

This advanced ball is not broken, and the inside of the Poké Ball looks quite new, but the buttons are a little clumsy.

Even though it is a high-end product, the corrosion from seawater over time still caused some impact.

"…After returning to Kanto, I'll take it to Silver Company to exchange it for a new one."

Of course Wang Yao couldn't use the faulty Poké Ball.

"Okay, stop digging in the sand and go play in the sea."

Wang Yao sorted out the scattered props and put them into his backpack.

"Huh? This is..."

While sorting out the props, Wang Yao discovered that the molten bird feather in his backpack seemed to have changed.

"The flames were drifting in one direction."

Wang Yao took out the glass cover containing the feather.

He mailed the feather to Dr. Oak for testing before the competition, and after the doctor recorded the data, he returned it to Wang Yao after the competition.

According to Professor Oak's measurements, the flame on the flame bird's feather does not need oxygen to burn, and it no longer generates heat after being taken away from the valley by Wang Yao...

Therefore, it can be placed in a constant temperature space backpack.

However, Wang Yao just thought that the lantern made of Moltres feathers was pretty cool, which was why he always carried it with him.

Wang Yao turned the glass cover and observed the changes in the flame on the feather.

"Sure enough... it's always heading there!"

Wang Yao looked beyond the flames and toward the sea.

North - The flame on the feathers of the flamingo is attracted to the unknown in the north.

"Light Island... Volcano..."

"Did you sense the presence of your kind?"

Wang Yao had some guesses in his mind.
