Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

Yonghai Island, temple.

As soon as the old Greninja finished speaking, surging water energy suddenly burst out from its body, sweeping across the entire temple like a torrent.

The azure light shone throughout the entire temple, blinding people.

The entire temple formed a huge water vortex with it as the center, and endless water energy continuously converged towards it.

Wrapped in the water flow, the body of the old Koga ninja frog floated uncontrollably into the air, suspended in the air, with a transparent water curtain surrounding its body.

"Dong dong!"

The heartbeat sounded like thunder, and along with the heartbeat of the old Greninja, endless water flowed towards its heart.

The temple Greninja lying on the ground slowly woke up after hearing the thunderous heartbeat, looked at the old Greninja floating in the air, and stood up to try to stop it.

But the old Greninja just waved his hand gently, and a gentle stream of water wrapped around the temple like a gurgling stream, and Greninja sent it out, gently putting it aside.

…………

The situation in front of him made Xia Yu a little confused.

Chi Hanqing on the side looked cold, looking at the old Koga Ninja floating in the air, with a touch of sadness in his eyes.

At this moment, a brilliant light suddenly burst out from the chest of the old Greninja.

A small azure cube-shaped stone that shone with bright light slowly peeled out from the chest of the old Greninja.

Endless water energy enveloped the small cube-shaped stone, shining brightly.

This is the broken... dripping slate.

Xia Yu and Chi Hanqing both looked at the broken water-dropping stone slab.

A steady stream of water gurgled out from the cubic stones, shining with dazzling light, attracting the attention of Xia Yu and Chi Hanqing.

"boom!"

However, at this moment, a huge roar sounded, and all the water energy around the cube-shaped stone spread outward like a ring, forming a shock wave visible to the naked eye.

The huge impact caused Xia Yu and Chi Hanqing to fall to the ground together.

The cube floating in the air also lost its dazzling light at the same time, turning into a blue cube stone and falling to the ground.

Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds and it rained heavily.

The old Greninja had also lost its energy support at this moment and was about to fall to the ground. Shui Yutu's Greninja suddenly leaped forward, caught the old Greninja steadily, and gently placed it on the ground.

After peeling off the broken...water-dripping slate, the old Greninja seemed even older.

His once strong body seemed to be drained of energy. He fell to the ground, barely breathing, as if he could die at any time.

Xia Yu was shocked when he saw this scene. He looked at Chi Hanqing beside him and asked, "What happened to it?"

"It... has lived for a very, very long time. It has been alive since before the sinking of Aldomare. It has already reached the limit of its lifespan. If it weren't for the broken water drop slate, it would have died."

"Now that the broken dripping slate has been peeled off, it has lost the energy of the slate, and its old body can no longer support it."

Chi Hanqing had known that this situation would occur, so she had been saying that there was no need to hand over the broken water-drop slate to her today.

She looked at the elderly Greninja in front of her, and a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes.

Greninja from the other side of the temple also stumbled over, looked at the dying old Greninja, with a sad expression, and knelt on the ground.

Looking at his two children, the elderly Greninja showed a relieved smile on his face and spoke in a hoarse voice with difficulty: "I was almost dead. Even if the slate hadn't been peeled off, I wouldn't have lived for half a year."

Greninja turned his head with difficulty and set his eyes on the temple Greninja: "It's time for you to take a good look at the outside world... Go out and take a look."

As soon as the words fell, the old Greninja slowly closed its eyes and left this world peacefully.

…………

The separation came too suddenly. Xia Yu did not expect to witness this scene of life and death on Yonghai Island.

Perhaps just now, the Temple Greninja tried its best to win the victory just to let its father... live a little longer, even if it was just a few more months.

Xia Yu's eyes flashed, and at this moment he thought of the props he had obtained.

Iridescent crest feathers...

The Rainbow Crest can revive a person or Pokémon that has been dead for no more than 30 minutes, so it should be able to revive the elderly Greninja that just died.

But Xia Yu was not sure, because Greninja was subject to natural birth, aging, sickness and death, and the rainbow crested feathers... might not necessarily have any effect.

Xia Yu took out the rainbow crown feather from the system space and tried to use it, but the result he got was disappointing.

"People or Pokémon that die of natural aging cannot be resurrected."

Listening to the system's prompts, Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, watching the old Greninja die, the Temple Greninja roared in pain.

Heavy rain submerged its body.

After a full long while, the temple Greninja slowly raised its head, and its cold eyes fell on Shui Yutu, Xia Yu and... Shui Yutu's Greninja, with undisguised coldness.

Obviously he had already attributed the death of the elderly Greninja to the three of them.

Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh. What's going on? He said he wanted to subdue this bond-transformation Greninja, but now it seems that the chances are slim.

Xia Yu felt so wronged. The old Greninja wanted to peel off the broken water droplet slate by itself... It wanted to die, and all this was blamed on us.

The gaze of the temple Greninja was as real as a substance. It stared at the two of them for a few moments, then staggered into the temple, carrying the old Greninja's corpse, and disappeared in the heavy rain.

Looking at the figure of Greninja leaving the temple, Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh, his heart full of regret.

Although he could indeed let the Iron Warrior take action, forcibly keep Greninja and subdue it, but in this way... Greninja might hate him forever.

It will also be very difficult for him to establish a bond with Greninja.

Watching Greninja disappear in the rainy night, Xia Yu retracted his gaze and moved it to Chi Hanqing. He now had too many questions in his mind.

Chi Hanqing seemed to feel Xia Yu's gaze as well. He walked to the broken water-drop stone slab and picked it up gently.

The originally shining broken teardrop slate was now dull and looked just like an ordinary azure slate, plain and not noticeable at all.

Chi Hanqing held the broken water-dropping slate and then did something that surprised Xia Yu.

She stretched out her hand and handed the broken water-drop slate to Xia Yu: "Why are you standing there... Take it, this is for you."
