Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 147 Gastly: Challenging the Dojo! (Seeking monthly votes!)

Several days passed in a row.

Thursday.

After quickly packing their luggage, Jinghe and the little ones prepared to set off.

He had already reported to the Academic Affairs Office, and upon learning that he was going to assist the investigators, the director of the Academic Affairs Office, Min Jiang, did not hesitate to "let him go".

In fact, Jinghe only said it politely, because he didn't have any classes for the next few days.

As for the destination of this trip...

Naturally, it is Imo City in the Jodo region.

Originally, A-Du had indicated that he could come and pick him up.

He confidently stated that he had Dragonite, Charizard, and Aerodactyl, and that he could quickly pick him up and take him to and from Johto and Hoenn.

After all, Hoenn is located to the west of the Johto region, which is not far away.

The Dragon King will take me back to the capital and put me in charge of the Dragon-Riding Family.

Strange thoughts always flash through my mind.

Jinghe said without hesitation that she didn't need it.

Let's not waste the celebrity investigator's precious time; he can just fly to Chengdu himself.

The weather was clear, and a few lazy mullet flew across the azure sky.

Jinghe arrived at Kanaz Airport, dragging his suitcase with a Gastly floating beside him.

"Ooh~~"

Ice Vulpix squinted and lay on the suitcase, looking quite relaxed.

The skilled blacksmith, carrying a hammer, pouted, looking somewhat unhappy.

Why not just hang the suitcase on the hammer?

I'm not happy because I can't exercise.

Once on the plane, Jinghe repeatedly told the skilled blacksmith not to touch the plane before closing his eyes.

Hoenn is not far from the city, and it doesn't take a long time to fly there.

The airplane meals in the Pokémon world are quite plentiful, including not only human food but also Pokémon food.

Gastly stretched out its tongue and licked the thing clean, then it and the blacksmith stared longingly at Vulpix.

"Ooh~~"

Helpless, the Ice Vulpix let out a soft breath.

Their drinks immediately became chilled.

The two little ones raised their glasses, clinked them together, and took a big, satisfying gulp.

The plane encountered turbulence when it entered the Johto region.

The violent shaking startled Jinghe, who had been resting with her eyes closed, awake.

Looking out the window, I saw an orange figure flash by at an extremely fast speed.

'The one carrying the camera?!'

Jinghe was startled.

It wasn't until I saw a few more figures that I realized what was happening.

It turns out to be a budget version of Ho-Oh – the Big-Toothed Finch.

Fortunately, the Alliance's planes are not so easily damaged, and there are contingency plans for all kinds of unexpected situations. After realizing they had nowhere to attack, the big-billed finches quickly left.

But this made Jinghe realize something.

In the Pokémon world, there are two types of Pokémon you should always have ready when you go out.

When traveling by plane, bring a Flying-type Pokémon that can carry passengers; when traveling by boat, bring a Water-type Pokémon.
Don't be fooled by how sturdy airplanes and ships seem in the Pokémon world; accidents can happen anytime.

Awakened, Jinghe lost all interest in resting and took out her notebook to try writing some more scripts.

The previous book received a good response, but it was temporarily shelved due to the high investment requirements and the difficulty of filming.

This time he plans to write a low-budget book.

Airport in Enmo City, Johto Region.

As Jinghe, carrying her suitcase, stepped out of the airport, a familiar figure walked towards her.

"Jing He!"

Adu looked eager and gave Jinghe a big hug, while the Dragonite next to him looked eager to try.

Startled, Jinghe quickly broke free and then swiftly stuffed a few Power Cubes into Dragonite's mouth to distract it.

This made Jinghe secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Come on, Xiaochun is all ready!"

As Adu spoke, he led Jinghe outside.

ready?

what to prepare?
Jing He was taken aback.

Yanmo City is not a particularly large or bustling city because it is nestled among mountains.

However, there are quite a few people in Blacksmith City, and the whole city is filled with "dragon culture" that can be seen everywhere. You can even see some people with dragon-type Pokémon on the street.

Dragon-type Pokémon, which are rare and valuable to outsiders, seem to be nothing out of the ordinary in Blacksmith City.

but.

Raising a Dragon-type Pokémon is different from simply raising a Dragon-type Pokémon.

As they walked, Adu told Jinghe about his findings from the past few days.

"I've spotted Team Rocket's trail near Lake Rage," Adu said gravely.

Team Rocket has always been a major problem for both the Kanto and Johto Leagues. Even the powerful Kanto and Johto Leagues couldn't figure out how to deal with or counter the massive Team Rocket.

As an investigator for the Kanto Alliance, Wataru was naturally familiar with the Rockets.

really.

Jing He thought to himself.

"but."

Adu hesitated again.

"Actually, the Rockets haven't been very active lately, I wonder what they're planning."

You'd have to ask Boss Sakaki.

“Tell me about the Lake of Rage. What did you discover?” Jinghe asked.

A-Du snapped out of his reverie, remembering that Jing-He was from Hoenn and that Team Rocket was something he needed to worry about, so he said:
"When I arrived, Team Rocket had already evacuated, but I found a special magnetic field instrument around Lake Rage."

"magnetic field?"

"I've consulted an expert about their specific functions, but I suspect that the reason Gyarados turned into that state is probably related to these instruments."

"How's Gyarados? How's it doing lately?"

"Still the same as always."

During their conversation, the two arrived at the entrance of the Yanmo Dojo in Yanmo City.

Jing He: "?!" Kanto, Viridian City, Team Rocket base.

"Boss, according to the latest intelligence, Teacher Jinghe has just arrived in Yanmo City, the capital. It should be that Adu invited him there." Zhenniao reported the situation to Sakaki.

Upon hearing this, Sakaki looked up, grabbed a small cookie from the table, and popped it into his mouth.

"Hmm." He nodded thoughtfully. "Is it because of the Lake of Rage?"

"should be."

Seeing Sakaki eat the cookie, Makoto's cheeks flushed slightly, and she continued her report:
"However, the people from Lake of Rage evacuated immediately, so even if they find something, they won't be able to track them down."

Talk about it.

In fact, the incident at Angry Lake was somewhat related to Jing He.

Mewtwo has once again destroyed part of Team Rocket's internal network, and because Mewtwo's abilities are getting stronger each time, the extent of the outage this time is even greater, even affecting parts of Team Rocket's network in the Johto region.

Lake of Rage is one of them.

However, Giovanni didn't really care about this.

The R Plan at Lake of Rage is just one of Team Rocket's many plans, aimed at studying the effects of magnetic fields and sound waves on Pokémon and attempting to control them using magnetic fields and sound waves.

This was one of the many alternative plans that Giovanni had prepared to control Mewtwo.

But now that Mewtwo is under "control", the Lake of Rage project has become dispensable.

"Cut what needs to be cut off as soon as possible, and tell Apollo and the others to behave themselves recently," Sakaki said.

"Yes!"

Gently stroking the cat boss, Sakaki slowly smiled and said:
"Now that you're in Johto, Masatori, why don't you go and meet our unaware executive?"

"what?"

Zhenniao was stunned.

See Teacher Jinghe?

She immediately realized, "What do you need my subordinates to do?"

Her eyes flickered slightly behind her round-framed glasses.

Should we kidnap Teacher Jinghe?

I'm actually quite excited about it!
"Meet him, and subtly reveal your identity to him, and see how he reacts," Sakaki said slowly.

No, I won't tie you up.
The look of disappointment in Makoto's eyes flashed by in an instant.

Then, as if remembering something, she said, "But... what if that investigator, Watari, finds out?"

“I will have Aju go with you.”

The Gym Leader of Fuchsia City, Aki, is a ninja, and Johto City is known as the ninja capital, so there's a good reason to go there.

"Yes!"

With Ah-Ju around, we're very safe.

"By the way." Zhenniao swiped the tablet and brought up a file. "Boss, this is the list of outstanding graduates from this batch of schools."

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Zhenniao emphasized the word "excellent".

Sakaki took the tablet and casually glanced at the list.

"Ok?"

Finally, my gaze settled on three names.

After clicking, a photo appears.

A slightly complicated expression flashed across Sakaki's eyes.

"The three of them."

Upon seeing the photo that Sakaki had opened, Manori wanted to say something, but Sakaki interrupted her, saying:
"They'll go with you this time."

"Together?"

Sakaki put down the tablet without offering any explanation.

Seeing this, the real bird could only reply:
"Yes! I promise to complete the task!"

"are you kidding me?"

At the entrance of the Yanmo Martial Arts Hall, Jinghe's eye twitched after listening to Adu's explanation, and she asked.

To this, A-Du could only chuckle awkwardly twice and say:

"There's no other way; these are the rules set by the elders. Only those who challenge the current Gym Leader and gain his approval are qualified to enter the 'Dragon's Cave'."

This is why Adu brought Jinghe here and said before that "Xiaochun is ready".

Jing He's eyes widened slightly.

"Why don't you just bring Gyarados out?"

"That's what I said."

Adu patted Jinghe on the shoulder.

"But the destructiveness is getting a little out of control, and don't you want to go inside the 'Dragon's Lair'?"

Actually, entering the "Dragon's Cave" requires more than just challenging gyms.

It should be said that challenging the dojo was only one of the conditions. It was only after A-Du requested permission from the Dragon Elders that he was able to secure this opportunity for Jing He.

"Do not want to."

Jing He shook her head.

A-Du: "."

"Okay, I'm still thinking about it," Jing He admitted.

To be honest, whether as a seasoned Pokémon enthusiast in my past life or as a trainer now, I've always been somewhat curious about the mysterious "Dragon's Den" in Blackrock City.

Moreover, what A-Du said makes some sense; it wouldn't be good if bringing Gyarados out caused too much damage.

Upon hearing this, A-Du burst out laughing.

"I've already told Xiaochun that she can get in regardless of whether she wins or loses."

Jing He gave him a disgruntled look.

It's not like you're the one who's going to fight.

Then he looked at Gastly, Vulpix curled up like a "snow goddess" taking a nap, and the blacksmith who had secretly hung his suitcase on his hammer.

Who will hit them?
It's just a formality anyway.
bang——

The dojo's main door was pushed open.

Xiaochun, who was already prepared, stood on one side of the battlefield.

Seeing Jing He walk in, she smiled slightly and cracked her leather whip.

"Finally waiting for you."

Jinghe looked at Adu, who was running away to the side.

Why is there such a thing?
What does it feel like to be tricked into coming here and being killed?
Gastly emerged from Jing He's shadow, wearing its sunglasses, and shouted arrogantly:
"Kou Jie! (▼皿▼#)"

Challenge them!
