Chapter 476 The Statue of the Sea God

Chapter 476 The Statue of the Sea God (Seeking monthly votes!)
The scent of the ocean?
That's only to be expected.

After all, the thing originally came from the sea.

However, the problem is how to get the item from a group of masked ninjas and shell-removing ninjas.

It depends on how much the Iron-Faced Ninja and the Shedding-Shell Ninja value that item.

Thought for a while.

He held his hands out to the side, a faint blue light gleaming in his eyes.

Waveguides reside in the heart.

In any case, let's try to be polite first and then resort to force. Let's try to "contact" the Iron-Faced Ninja and see if we can exchange something like energy cubes for something from him.

However, neither the Iron-Faced Ninja nor the Shedding-Shell Ninja could see the friendly aura he released.

This made Jinghe sigh inwardly.

Ultimately, it's not the main character, it doesn't have the protagonist's halo, and the power of aura isn't omnipotent. Only the "Hey, Hey" rainbow feather has any presence.

Rainbow Feather: Meow?
"Gucha!"

Seeing this, the Azure Flame Blade Demon stepped to the front, its dark blue blade flashing, a wisp of flame appearing and disappearing, and it spoke in a deep voice towards the forest.

Gentlemen, could you please give me some face?

hum-

The words just fell.

The flames in the Azure Flame Blade Ghost Eye surged instantly, and the blade swung again. With a loud "bang," a figure moving at incredible speed was cleaved away by its blade.

Iron-Faced Ninja!
Jing He couldn't help but glance at Cang Yan Ren Gui.

His own aura power had no effect whatsoever, but the Azure Flame Blade Demon's words, "Give me some face," only provoked the Iron-Faced Ninja's ferocity.

Then it dawned on me.

Oh~~ This is how Gengar's "Outlaw Squad" usually operates, right?
Anyway, they were the ones who "took the initiative" first.

With this loud explosion, the once peaceful forest suddenly became restless. The buzzing sound seemed to come from all directions, accompanied by shadowy figures flashing past quickly. It was as if all the masked ninjas in the forest had been "activated".

There's nothing we can do about that.
“Nine-tailed,” Jing He said softly.

He had made plans in this regard during his previous thinking.

"Ouch~~"

Having received its instructions, the Ice Nine-Tailed Fox let out a long cry, its nine snow-white tails slowly unfurling, scattering snow-white, crystalline dust around it, hazy and ethereal, as if it were an incarnation of ice and snow emerging from an extremely cold world.

Snowflakes, resembling goose feathers, began to fall from the sky, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, swirling and carried by the north wind, scattering all around.

The temperature dropped sharply in an instant.

Amidst the snowflakes and shadows in the biting wind, the masked ninjas, seemingly affected by the temperature or perhaps to resist the snowflakes and north wind, gradually revealed their forms.

In just a few breaths, this forest, which originally seemed to be in the tropics, suddenly appeared as if it had been transported to the north, gradually covered in a silvery white.

"Yo-yo."

Young Gilas, his eyes blurry, gazed at the scene before him. Recalling the sandstorm he had previously unleashed, he suddenly realized the vast difference in weather control between himself and the Ice Nine-Tails.

"Ow~"

Ice Nine-Tail's ethereal blue eyes looked at Young Gilas, a gentle smile on its face, as it taught Young Gilas about its understanding and perception of the weather.

Young Gilas would sometimes bite his fingers, and sometimes seem to have a sudden realization, as if he had really learned something.

"Yo-yo."

They're all ice cream.
The appearance of the Nine-Tails in the snow signifies the official start of the battle.

Martial Arts Master Xiong took the lead, his body enveloped in a stream of water as he shot out, smashing a masked ninja who was suddenly attacking him with a single punch, creating an opening among the surrounding masked ninjas.

Dragonite soared into the sky, its body dancing with a peculiar rhythm. As it flew higher, its momentum also rose to another level. Then, clad in a giant dragon's coat, it crashed down vertically.

Dragon's Dive!!
A pair of wings left snow-white contrails in the air before crashing down with tremendous force, widening the opening created by the Martial Arts Bear Master.

Azure Flame Blade Demon crossed his twin swords at his chest, enveloped in wisps of black mist, and suddenly flashed out, cleaving through the air with his swords.

Bang!Bang!
The two masked ninjas were hit by an unexpected attack. After crashing into a tree trunk, they were about to get up and fight back when a ghostly blue flame erupted from their bodies, instantly enveloping them.

Within the burning flames, it seemed as if wisps of unseen souls drifted out and returned to the Azure Flame Blade Demon's blade, causing the aura of life fire to surge forth from its body.

The evolved Azure Flame Blade Demon's flames remain hidden until they strike its opponent, at which point they ignite. Combined with the hazy snowy sky as a cover, it can be seamlessly integrated into tactical systems, transforming into the Snow-Hidden Swordsman.

"Cha~~!"

Hammer Girl wielded a massive hammer, its surface covered in layers of frost, with ice crystals condensing and white frost swirling around it. No Iron-Faced Ninja could get close to it, as if touching it would result in injury or death.

"Genga~"

Gengar chuckled mischievously, gently waving its hand from top to bottom to open a gap and slipped inside. While everyone was engrossed in their battle, it secretly slipped into the forest.

When the crack reappeared, it was already deep in the forest. In front of it was what the bear cub had mentioned, and what Jinghe Waveguide had sensed: a somewhat rustic sculpture that looked earthy yellow.

"Genga?"

Gengar tilted its head, a hint of confusion in its eyes.

Why does it feel like this thing has a Ghost-type attribute hidden inside?

buzz-

Just as Gengar was wondering about the ancient sculpture, a buzzing sound suddenly came from beside it.

Look up.

They looked like cicada shells, each with a blank expression and a halo around their heads, like ninjas shedding their skins!
Ghost-type energy emanates from them.

Gengar's sudden approach triggered the sleeping Shedinjas.

Having witnessed this scene and received feedback from Gengar, Jinghe suddenly understood.

No wonder the Iron-Faced Ninjas brought this unknown sculpture that came out of the sea; it's probably because the Shedding-Shell Ninjas needed it.

The Shedding Shell Ninja and the Iron Mask Ninja were originally one entity. Even though they separated after evolving, they can still be considered as one race.

"Genga~"

Gengar wasn't afraid of these shedding-shell ninjas at all.

The difficulty in dealing with the Shedding Shell Ninja lies in the fact that very few people fully understand the characteristics of its "mysterious protection" ability.

Not everyone and not all Pokémon happen to have a way to counter them.

However, Gengar, being a Ghost-type Pokémon, is one of the types that counters them.

Once you figure out how to break their "mysterious protection," the seemingly mysterious and elusive Shedding Skin Ninja is actually much easier to deal with than the Iron Mask Ninja.

A jet-black sphere appeared in Gengar's hand, and it looked around with a wicked grin.

Smaller black spheres shot out from it, each one enveloping a molting ninja and putting them into a deep sleep, restoring them to their original cicada-like form.

Dark hole!
In group battles, Darkrai's Dark Hole is incredibly useful.

Especially when cleaning up "minions," it's practically a "minion de-essentializer."

Of course, Gengar's "Dark Hole" can't compare to Darkrai's. In fact, strictly speaking, it can be considered a true Dark Hole, combining its Dark Pulse, the way it makes Shadow Balls, and "the hypnosis of the old Jing family".

However, it is obviously the most effective way to deal with this kind of "fragile" ninja.

The sculpture was retrieved.

"Genga?"

Huh?
Gengar blinked.

Having spent years hunting geese, it quickly discovered that the place where the Iron-Faced Ninja and the Shedding-Shell Ninja sculptures were placed seemed to have more than just this one good thing.

For example, fluorescent silver powder, a body without a soul to "reside".

Not every ninja can split into two after evolving into a masked ninja. In fact, the vast majority of the shed shells will slowly decay and disappear.

A small portion transforms into Shedding Shell Ninjas, while an even smaller portion becomes the item "Beautiful Empty Shell."

His cunning eyes darted around, revealing a mischievous grin.

But he soon noticed the "warning" look that Jing He was giving him.

Gengar chuckled and scratched its rear end.

With a flick of its tongue, it took out several boxes of energy cubes and placed them down to be used as "exchange" sculptures.

However, just as it put down the energy cube, a thought suddenly stirred within it, as if it sensed some danger. Despite its seemingly chubby appearance, it moved with unusual agility, leaping forward to the side.

Suddenly, a jet-black fist appeared and slammed into the spot where Gengar had just been hovering.

What appeared was a black demon with red eyes!

Ok?
Jinghe and Gengar were both somewhat surprised to see this seemingly out-of-the-sky demon.

He suddenly realized.

This is a Nightmare hidden between Ninjamas and Shedinja, feeding on the ghostly energy of Shedinja. Gengar's appearance startled it.

Gengar was furious after almost getting punched.

It's always the one that "ambushes" others; when has it ever been ambushed by other Pokémon?

He immediately clenched his fist, gathered ghost-type energy, and retaliated against the Night Demon with a punch without hesitation.

Bang! !

Dusknoir seemed to have not expected Gengar to react so quickly. Its attack missed and it was hit back by Gengar. As it was sent flying, its head was a little dazed.

How can Gengar use physical attacks?
And it seems like his fists are stronger than his own.
"哓GA!"

Gengar barked twice at Jinghe.

This time you saw it, it really was it that launched a sneak attack on me, so I didn't hold back. Jing He was relatively restrained towards the Iron-Faced Ninja and the Shedding-Shell Ninja, after all, he needed to take the sculpture to complete his mission.

However, when faced with Dusknoir, which had ambushed Gengar and clearly harbored ill intentions, there was really no need to be polite.

"Shadow Ball." Jing He's voice reached Gengar's ears.

"Genga!!"

Gengar grinned maliciously, its body hovering in mid-air, a pitch-black sphere appearing in its hand. Ghost-type energy from the surrounding area rapidly gathered, including that of Shedinja and others.

This move originates from the Shadow Ball move of Elite Four member Agatha Christie's Gengar.

Just as Dusknoir was recovering from Gengar's punch and preparing to retaliate, it suddenly jolted awake and saw Gengar holding a huge Shadow Ball, its eyes slightly dazed.

Swallowed his saliva.

No, bro, this Shadow Orb of yours is illogical.
boom! !

The Shadow Orb crashed down, and the Night Demon had no chance to dodge it. It was hit squarely and immediately lost its ability to fight.

snort!
Gengar snorted dismissively and clapped its hands.

My illustrious reputation as the "King of Fear" was almost ruined by you in a moment of carelessness.

Then Gengar's eyes darted around, it covered its mouth and chuckled mischievously, floated to the side of the unconscious Dusknoir, picked it up by one hand and turned it upside down, then shook it.

Large and small black crystal particles fell from the body of the Night Demon.

It was caught in Gengar's hand.

They were actually fragments of Dark Stone!

Moreover, one of them was even intact!

Gengar was overjoyed.

If this guy hadn't ambushed me, I wouldn't have known he was hiding so many good things on him.

Sure enough, from now on it will have to target the stronger ones; it won't even look at the weak ones anymore.

Half an hour later.

The demon of the night slowly awoke.

Looking at the masked ninja and the shell-shedding ninja surrounding him, he showed a hint of panic.

We need to prepare something to appease their anger.

I touched my body.

What about the east and west?

"Boom!!!"

A piercing sound echoed through the woods.
"What is this?"

In Bonnie's office, Jing He returned and placed the sculpture on the desk.

She was somewhat surprised by Jinghe's efficiency.

The task was given to me this morning, and it's already finished before evening?
She was unaware of the allure of "miracle candy" to Gengar and the like.

If the reward for the mission were some kind of item or material, it might not have been so quick, but the reward was yet another "magic candy," and they had just eaten the food that Jinghe had cooked with it.
When it comes to food, the Jing family takes it very seriously.

Jing He, who happily put away the "magical candy," wasn't entirely sure about it either, guessing, "It looks like an ancient sculpture, probably floated out of some underwater ruin."

The sculpture exudes the atmosphere of the sea and harbors a hint of ghostly energy, perfectly fitting the characteristics of an ancient site.

However, after years of weathering, the sculpture has become somewhat blurred, making it impossible to discern what it depicts. But judging from its general appearance, it should be a Pokémon.

“Underwater ruins?” Bonnie nodded.

We need to consult an expert in this area.

Seemingly sensing her thoughts, Jinghe smiled and said, "I can ask for you."

As he spoke, he took out his phone, snapped a photo, and sent it directly to Cynthia.

In terms of knowledge about ruins, myths, history, and other events, few people in the entire Pokémon world can compare to Cynthia and her grandmother, Professor Iris.

Cynthia's response speed was unexpectedly fast.

[Ibrahimovic eating cabbage]: Where did you find this?
Jinghe briefly recounted the events.

[Ibrahimovic eating cabbage]: I feel like I have a vague recollection of it, but I can't remember it right now. I need to look it up.

Do you remember?

That shouldn't be too difficult to find.
Cynthia is still reliable.

Turning around, she saw Bonnie's gossipy expression and the occasional sidelong glances she was giving.

No.

You, the mighty Four Heavenly Kings
"cough."

Bonnie, the Heavenly King, didn't expect Jing He to come to her senses so quickly and coughed lightly.

"Well, since you have a solution, Teacher Jinghe, then I'll leave this sculpture to you for safekeeping."

"I?"

Bonnie nodded as a matter of course.

You're practically a top-tier agent now, and this thing doesn't even look particularly important. What's wrong with entrusting it to you for safekeeping?
Sinnoh region, Shenhe Town.

Wearing her pajamas and nestled on the sofa, Cynthia stretched, looking ready to get up and get to work.

Cattleya whimpered twice like a kitten, wrinkled her nose, and showed a hint of resentment.

She and Cynthia were enjoying their time together when someone had to come and disturb them.

And even though it was using the "ruins" that Cynthia cherished most, she couldn't stop it.

"Resentment" surged.

"Alright, if we find out what kind of ruins it is this time, I'll take you with me." Cynthia patted Cattleya's head like she was coaxing a child, and said with a smile.

This made Cattleya's eyes light up, and she perked up.

"let me help you."

The two went into Cynthia's study together and began looking up information.

After a while, a voice, mixed with a hint of realization and doubt, came from the study.

"Poseidon."

Sinnoh region, Veiled City.

With an indifferent expression, Chi Ri crossed his hands in front of his nose, and two figures appeared on the communicator on the table.

One of them was Pokémon Hunter J, who had been dormant for some time, and was being searched by Jing He and his "special encirclement team".

The other person was dressed as a pirate captain and seemed to be quite familiar with Hunter J, though it was unclear whether their familiarity was friend or foe.

"Heh, J, you're in a bad situation now." The pirate captain made no attempt to hide his sarcasm.

"Ghost, are you having a good time? The Investigation Department has been chasing you for ages and you haven't shown your face yet," Hunter J said casually, completely unconcerned about Ghost's sarcasm.

We're all on the League's wanted list, so no one should look down on anyone else.

"Hmph! There are only two kinds of men in the world, one kind..."

"All right."

Chi Ri coldly interrupted their argument, "I've already found the information you wanted."

Upon hearing this, Captain Ghost indeed abandoned his argument with Hunter J and excitedly shouted:
"real?!"

Chi Ri didn't answer him, but said calmly, "Don't forget what you promised me."

"Don't worry." The ghost waved his hand dismissively. "A man's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold!"

But Chi Ri didn't believe his nonsense. "I'll find someone to help you."

"Ok?"

The ghost's eyes narrowed.

Is this helping or surveillance?
"You don't think you can find what you want with just a few words, do you?" Chi Ri's face remained completely expressionless.

Hmph, as long as I find that thing, whether or not I'm being monitored is no longer important.

"Very well, I happen to need a few capable subordinates," Ghost said with a forced smile.

Hunter J on the screen curled the corner of his mouth into a smile.

As her old rival, how could she not know what Ghost was thinking?

But it doesn't matter, since everyone is cooperating to get what they need anyway.

The ghost is like this, the blazing sun is like this, and isn't she the same?

“Then let’s meet at the usual place,” Hunter J said.

"I'm afraid you won't dare to come." The ghost chuckled and hung up the call.

Hunter J and Akari exchanged a glance and then ended the communication.

Chi Ri closed the communicator, sat up slightly, and said to those behind him:
"You two go this time, Zhenxing and Suixing."

"Yes!"
