Xiaozhi: All the companion elves return

It looks like a giant locust, with a blue-gray and black body, a cross-shaped pattern on its waist and a silver pattern dividing the whole into two parts. Now it walks upright on two legs, and has barbs on its back and limbs, which makes it difficult to deal with at first glance.

Musashi was taking care of Tan-no-shi, while Kojiro and Meowth walked forward, blocking Musashi and Tan-no-shi behind them.

The guy in front of me seems to be the Pokémon that just defeated Tanjiro.

Kojiro threw the Pokéball of the saurian, and Meowth was ready to attack.

It was obvious that they had to stop this guy and prevent him from continuing to attack Tan Xiaoshi.

Kojiro took out the Rotom phone and turned on the Pokémon Encyclopedia function to check the information of the Pokémon on the opposite side.

After looking at the illustrated guide, I realized that the Pokémon in front of me was a Fierce-legged Grasshopper with both insect and evil attributes.

"You are so cruel to a weak Pokémon. It's unforgivable."

"That's right, meow. Bullying the weak is nothing. Let me show you how powerful Meow Meow is!"

"Harazu, use paralyzing powder." Kojiro directed the Hararazu to attack.

Meow Meow rushed towards Lilie Leg Locust quickly, its sharp claws shining coldly.

Meowth used Crazy Scratching.

The Wild Jellyfish slowly used the paralysis powder.

The eyes of the Fiery Locust were sharp, with a cold light flashing in them.

This little charcoal servant actually has a helper.

However, the Fiery-legged Locust was not afraid and rushed towards Meow Meow quickly.

Meow Meow used Crazy Scratches, but the Fiery Locust was faster and rushed straight towards Meow Meow with a surprise attack.

Before Meow Meow could attack the Fiery-legged Locust, it was beaten back by the Fiery-legged Locust.

"Oh my, I really can't do it anymore, meow. This Pokémon is too fast and powerful. I'm no match for it."

Kojiro looked at Meow Meow who was beaten back with one move. In fact, he had already had some psychological expectations, because Meow Meow's strength was really not good.

At this time, the paralyzing powder of the wild jellyfish went towards the fierce-legged locust.

The Fiery Locust tried to use the surprise attack again, but failed and was hit directly by the paralysis powder.

After giving Tanshiko a simple treatment, Musashi also released his Salt Stone Treasure and Ranranweng.

Now that the Fiery Locust is in a paralyzed state, it is a good time for Yan Shibao and Guoran Weng to take action.

Ah, no, it should be said that it is a good time for Yan Shibao to take action, because Guo Ran Weng cannot take action.

"Yanshibao, use headbutt."

Yan Shibao's small body rushed towards Lie Tui Huang. Lie Tui Huang wanted to dodge but was unable to move due to paralysis.

Yan Shibao's headbutt hit Lie Tui Huang directly, knocking Lie Tui Huang back two steps.

The Fiery Locust was about to resist, but he fell into a state of cowardice again, and was still unable to move as before.

Moreover, the Fiery-legged Locust is now paralyzed and its speed has been greatly reduced. It will be very disadvantageous for it to continue to be attacked like this.

Energy is surging in the Fiery Leg Locust's body, and it must first deal with the Salt Stone Treasure who can only use a head hammer.

Although its speed was reduced by the paralysis, the Fiery-legged Locust still attacked the salt stone rapidly.

The evil energy fluctuates, and the power of this move is even stronger than the previous surprise attack.

Abyss thrust!

Just when the Fierce-legged Locust was about to attack the Saltstone Pokémon, a blue Pokémon appeared in front of it.

This Pokémon is also in the same group as them.

Fierce Leg Locust didn't think much and attacked Guo Ran Weng directly.

Sure enough, Weng was knocked back a little by the Abyss Stab of the Fiery Leg Locust, and then a white light shone from his body, and he directly used a counter-fist to knock the Fiery Leg Locust away.

The Fiery Locust was seriously injured and fled in panic.

"Soooo~Nice!"

Sure enough, Weng scratched his head at Musashi with a naive smile.

Meow Meow looked at Guo Ran Weng, this time it was all thanks to this guy.

Moreover, the Pokémon partners cooperate very well.

Under normal circumstances, Musashi and Kojiro would have to compete with each other after defeating their opponents.

But today they did not argue about who had the credit or whose Pokémon played a greater role in this battle, but ran towards Tan-sama together.

"Xiaojiro, why don't we capture Tan-Shinobi first? Tan-Shinobi can be restored in the Poké Ball, and it will also be convenient for us to send it to the Pokémon Center."

Meowth suggested that Kojiro capture Tanba-sama. Kojiro nodded and took out a Poké Ball and used it on Tanba-sama.

Although Tanka was seriously injured and in a coma, he still managed to break free from the Poké Ball.

Musashi looked at the tanshi who had reappeared after failing to capture him, and said to Kojiro, "How about we try again?"

Kojiro picked up the tanshi and shook his head.

His eyes were clear, and his emotion was not affected at all by the failure to capture the image.

Perhaps the only thing affecting his mood now is Tan Xiaoshi's injury.

"Okay, now it's not a question of whether to capture Tan-Senpa. It's so badly injured that it doesn't want to enter the Poké Ball. It's useless to try again. On the contrary, it will affect Tan-Senpa's physical strength. Let's send Tan-Senpa to the Pokémon Center first."

As he said that, Kojiro hugged the tanshi and ran towards the main road.

Musashi and Meowth looked at each other, then followed Kojiro toward the main road.

Meow Meow, who had just been shouting that he couldn't run, not only fought with the Fiery Legs Locust, but also ran very hard now.

The three members of Team Rocket, along with Tan-sama, ran towards the town ahead.

"Excuse me Miss Joy, I have to trouble you for a moment. This charcoal keeper was attacked by other Pokémon in the wild, and it looks seriously injured. I hope you can nurse it back to health."

Kojiro handed Tanbashi over to Joy. Looking at Tanbashi's condition, Miss Joy didn't say much. The most important thing now was to seize the time to treat Tanbashi.

"Please wait in the lobby. We will notify you when Tan-sama is done with the treatment."

The Rocket trio expressed their understanding and sat down on the couch.

But they didn't sit there for long before they chose to leave.

"Kojiro, are we really not going to wait for Tan-sama to wake up? At least we should say goodbye." Musashi spoke as he walked.

"I think so too, meow. We should wait for Tan-sama to wake up and meet him before leaving." Meow Meow echoed Musashi's words.

Before Kojiro could speak, Meow Meow continued, "Maybe there is still a chance to let Tan-shi join us. I see that you care about Tan-shi quite a lot. Don't you want it to be our partner?"

Faced with the questions from his two companions, Kojiro shook his head.

Kojiro was naturally very happy to have another partner, but he also had his own considerations.

"You just saw it. Even though the charcoal-like little savage was seriously injured, he refused to enter the Poké Ball. This shows his character."

"I also hope to have another partner, but forget it. From what I just saw, Tan-shi has a lot of personality."

Kojiro sighed. Tanka-sama didn't want to enter the Pokéball at all. Even when he was seriously injured and unconscious, he still refused. If he really wanted to keep Tanka-sama by his side, it would be a restraint for him.

"We chose to save Tan-Shinobi not because we wanted it to become our Pokémon. Joey will definitely let Tan-Shinobi leave the Pokémon Center when he is healthy and has the ability to survive, so we don't have to worry too much."

Musashi and Meowth listened to what Kojiro said without making any comment.

Musashi walked slowly, holding his hands behind his head and raised his head, and said casually:

"It's not that we are concerned. I think you are more worried."

Kojiro smiled awkwardly, feeling that Musashi had seen through his thoughts.

"Okay, that's it for Tan-sama. Yagami is already nearby. After we find Yagami, let's go to the Padiya Pit together. After all, we can only continue to carry out Boss Sakaki's plan later if we improve our own strength, so we still have to act quickly."

Musashi and Meowth didn't say much. Kojiro was too stupid. He saved Tanba-sama and didn't even wait for Tanba-sama to be cured before asking if he could become his Pokémon.

Even Tan Xiaoshi was in a coma the whole time, and he probably didn't even know who saved him.

The three members of Team Rocket came to a park, where Yagami was waiting for them.

"Aren't you supposed to be in the forest? How come you're in the town all of a sudden?"

Yagami was lying on a slope, and when he saw Team Rocket coming, he stood up and sat on the grass slope.

Kojiro came to Yagami and lay down directly.

I didn't pay much attention to it just now because I was saving Tan Xiaoshi, but now when I see Ye Shen sitting here, my feet suddenly feel sore.

Miaomiao lay directly on the grass. She could finally have a good rest. She was so tired.

Musashi just sat down and massaged his calves.

"It's just some things. Let's hurry up and make plans for Area Zero."

The matter of Tanshi was in the past, and Kojiro felt there was no need to say more.

"Ye Shen, I don't know if you have concerns or something else. Maybe you haven't told us a lot of things. You definitely didn't tell us the key information about Area Zero. But now that you have agreed to go with us, shouldn't you be honest with us?"

Ye Shen smiled. He indeed didn’t say much before, but now, he changed his mind.

He nodded. This time Ye Shen was really honest and he took out a book directly.

"The name of this book is 'The Book of Vermilion'. It is an exploration record of the Padiya Giant Pit written by Haizhe. It records many interesting things, especially the secrets of Area Zero."

"The book records some special and powerful Pokémon. These Pokémon have very strong powers. I did not lie to you. At the same time, there are many secrets in the Padiya Pit that can enhance their strength. I did not lie to you about this either."

Yagami spoke slowly. He did not lie to Team Rocket, but there were some things he did not say.

And he only gave the Rockets a direction. As for whether to go or not, it all depends on their own choice.

"But there is one thing, that is, the powerful Pokémon in the Padiya Pit, especially those recorded in the Book of Vermilion, are extremely powerful and brutal. In addition, the complex terrain of the Padiya Pit makes it very dangerous if these Pokémon discover you and a battle breaks out between the two sides without a strong enough force to fight back."

As soon as Ye Shen finished speaking, Meow Meow jumped up.

"Then why didn't you tell us before? What if we get into danger there, meow?"

Meowth spoke loudly, saying that such an important thing was not told to them before. They were only told that there were powerful Pokémon in Area Zero and the secret that could improve people.

Ye Shen explained:

"You were the ones who asked for a way to defeat Pikachu and Xiaozhi. I gave you ideas and pointed out the direction. It's up to you whether you want to go to the Padia Pit or not."

"And you don't really think that a place with rare and powerful Pokémon, a place with many unsolved mysteries, a place where trainers and Pokémon can get a lot of benefits, will be safe."

"If there really is such a place, let alone you, there may not be many people in the whole of Padia who are qualified to go there."

In fact, when Yagami was communicating with Team Rocket, he knew that Kojiro had guessed what he said. Maybe Kojiro's guess was not very accurate, but he would definitely be vigilant.

Moreover, Team Rocket has Gorman, so even if they encounter a powerful Pokémon, they can still escape if they cannot defeat it.

After all, there shouldn't be many Pokémon that can break through the defense of the Golem.

Musashi didn't want to discuss the things that were hidden from each other anymore, so he said, "Okay, Yashin, you know the purpose of us going to the Padiya Pit, which is to make us stronger so that we can deal with Xiaozhi and Pikachu."

"As for the Padiya Pit, you definitely know a lot more than we do. In fact, there were things we didn't tell you before, so we're even. I hope we can work well with you this time. Although I don't know what you want, if our goals are the same, then let's cooperate sincerely."

This time, Musashi laid the matter out in the open. In fact, they also had some doubts about Yashin. After all, after knowing that they were Team Rocket, he not only did not report to the Pokémon League, but also continued to help Team Rocket. This was very strange.

Originally, Kojiro and Musashi thought that Yagami might be a villain who wanted to use the power of Team Rocket to complete his plan, but in getting along with Yagami, they discovered that Yagami was really an ordinary trainer. He would also participate in some small competitions for Pokémon trainers and challenge gyms.

And I haven't seen Yashin do anything bad, and he treats Pokémon very well. I really don't know what this guy is thinking.

Yagami turned to a page in the "Book of Vermillion" and told the three members of Team Rocket about his plan.

"In fact, not only are you thinking about how to deal with Xiaozhi, I am also thinking about how to deal with Xiaozhi. You see this powerful Pokémon in the book, its name is Majestic Fang, it looks very similar to Shield Armor, but it is more powerful, so our plan this time is to capture Majestic Fang."

"I need your help. To be more precise, I need Guoran Weng's help. Because with my strength, I am not yet a match for Xiongwei Ya. This time I will tell you the plan directly. As for whether you are willing to go or not, it is entirely up to you."
