Pokémon Scenario: Intercepting Gible at the Start

"Even if we were to subdue them, it would definitely be several months from now."

The girl who had just spoken glanced at the logically astute boy and said, "You're not as handsome as Shang Qiu, so how do you know that Shang Qiu can't do what you can't?"

"What if Venusaur is female!"

Logic Guy: "???"

Although what the junior said was true, it's really impolite to belittle someone's face to their face.

There are many ways to debate, but this woman chose the most hurtful one!

...

Shang Qiu did not sit down, but instead stood lazily in front of Bangiras, holding onto the back of the chair.

He had a feeling that Venusaur's target was a bit off; it didn't seem like it was coming for him.

Judging from the mental fluctuations of Venusaur, his attention seemed to be focused on Corviknight.

After a moment's thought, Shang Qiu spoke to Garchomp:

"Sharkshark, put Corviknight on the seat!"

Chapter 553 The Heavenly King Recognizes His Master

Upon hearing Shang Qiu's words, Garchomp scratched its head in surprise.

"Master, why did you put this guy on the throne?"

"It's alright, just put it up." Shang Qiu didn't explain, but simply gave the order again.

Seeing that Shang Qiu had no intention of explaining, Garchomp did not press the matter further.

Instead, he went to Corviknight's side and placed the equally bewildered Corviknight on the throne.

Obeying orders is an elf's primary duty; everything else can wait.

Corviknight looked at Garchomp in terror. Seeing that Garchomp didn't react, it looked at Shang Qiu and became increasingly uneasy. It then collapsed to the ground with a thud.

He suddenly remembered that in some places there is a custom of bowing and kowtowing to the livestock three times and kowtowing nine times before slaughtering them, so that the livestock can leave in peace.

It is said that livestock slaughtered in this way have exceptionally delicious meat.

Is the owner's intention in having Garchomp place itself on the throne the same?

That despicable Samsung leader has actually managed to make him fall out of favor.

Not only did it cause him to fall out of favor, it also nearly cost him his life!

Shang Qiu looked at the Steel-Armored Raven that had inexplicably collapsed to the ground, somewhat bewildered.

"There's no danger here, why are you lying down?"

"Master, I truly have no intention of rebelling, please don't do this!"

"My loyalty as bright as the moon in the sky is witnessed by heaven and earth, my master!"

"Please don't eat me, Master! I can be dyed black tonight!"

As they were talking, the Steel-Armored Raven hugged Shang Qiu's leg and bumped into him twice more.

Shang Qiu: "..."

This guy is good at everything, except he's a bit incompetent and thinks too much all the time.

To put it bluntly, it's a lack of security.

"Get up quickly, or others will think I'm bullying you. You're a Brave Bird who learned the Brave Bird's Fierce Attack, how can you act so cowardly?"

"I'm letting you sit down because Venusaur came for you."

Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed across Steel-Armored Raven's face.

"Oh, so that's why! Don't worry, Master, I'll go and beat him senseless right away!"

Corviknight assumed that this elf must be seeking revenge since he had just killed the leader of the Three Kingdoms, and was about to attack without hesitation.

"So what if it's a Champion-level Pokémon? It's not like my Corviknight hasn't been beaten by Champion-level Pokémon before!"

He was not afraid of anything as long as Shang Qiu would not abandon him.

Seeing Ganga's reaction, Shangqiu and the other Pokémon couldn't help but laugh.

Although this guy arrived late, his loyalty to Shang Qiu is beyond doubt.

"Stop looking like that. People aren't coming to fight you."

...

On the other side, Venusaur walked heavily and resolutely toward Corviknight.

He had just seen Corviknight begging for mercy, but that did not affect Corviknight's standing in his heart.

This is someone who avenges his entire clan.

As Venusaur drew closer, Shang Qiu could even feel a slight tremor in the ground.

These vibrations were caused by Venusaur's trampling.

As Venusaur drew closer to Shang Qiu, all the surrounding students held their breath, watching him intently, afraid of missing this moment of the Elite Four's recognition of its master.

"Brothers, make way for me. I'm the moderator of the school forum. Let me take a picture of this news and pin it to the top."

"Today, our school's slogan is 'Freshman Shang Qiu Kills Samsung's Leader'."

The Elite Four-level Venusaur has realized its mistake and recognized Shang Qiu as its master!

The student, who claimed to be the moderator, shouted for a long time, but no one was willing to give way even a fraction of an inch.

The Heavenly King recognized a master, and not just any master, but a freshman in college—this is a historic moment!

Even if they only capture one shot, it's enough for them to talk about over tea and brag about for a lifetime.

Even teachers like Jia Hongtao and Ma Lie looked in surprise at Shang Qiu and Bulbasaur.

The further someone goes in academia, the less they believe in the possibility of the unexpected.

"Ma Lie, as a gym leader and trainer, have you ever heard of a Champion-level Pokémon directly recognizing its master like this?"

Marley shook his head. "Teacher Jia, as a top-tier Gym Leader Trainer, have you ever heard of such a thing?"

"No, it's basically impossible to subdue a Heavenly King-level being directly."

Jia Hongtao paused for a moment, then mentioned another possibility.

"Unless you have a Champion-level Pokémon and defeat this Elite Four-level Pokémon."

One of them was a Gym Leader, and the other was a top-tier Gym Leader. They absolutely did not believe that a Champion-level Pokémon without any ties would recognize a novice trainer as its master.

Moreover, Shang Qiu has a precedent; didn't he fail to capture Gardevoir before?

But looking into this Venusaur's eyes now, it's clear that it wants to be its master!

"Why discuss this now? We'll just wait and see what happens in autumn. Whether Venusaur will accept us as its master or not, we'll know in a minute."

Hearing Marx and Lenin's words, Jia Hongtao smiled.

That's right, we'll know in a minute, why worry about it?

It has to be said that ever since Shang Qiu defeated those four kings, Marx and Lenin knew that the new generation of students at Jida University had hope.

His mind became much sharper; he was no longer the ruthless killer and blockhead he used to be, ready to fight at the slightest provocation.

Two words inexplicably popped into Jia Hongtao's mind: "Tsk tsk, this is how someone goes from being unhappy to suddenly becoming clueless."

Marx and Lenin turned around: "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."

Jia Hongtao did not answer directly. He knew that Ma Lie was a very proud person, and he was afraid that he would be embarrassed if he said it.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. Hurry up and see Venusaur recognize its master, you won't be able to see it for long."

...

Venusaur walked with heavy steps, but with a determined look in its eyes, toward Shangqiu's direction.

The Charizard and Snorlax behind him crossed their arms and looked pleased.

"It's really not easy for such a stubborn guy to suddenly have an epiphany."

"At our level, I never expected that Ahua would be the first one to be able to swallow her pride."

"Look at us, standing here as Heavenly Kings, too embarrassed to acknowledge a master, and too afraid to run away."

Snorlax nodded in agreement. "That's right, Ahua is a ruthless person."

"But it's okay. Ah Hua has already surrendered, so he won't let us suffer. We can just go and join Ah Hua from now on."

"Kamikami!"

Blastoise nodded, and seeing that Arcanine didn't nod, Blastoise patted Arcanine's head a few times.

Great, everyone is safe except for the Dragonite that sold them out, perfect!

At this moment, apart from Greninja, which was battling Dragonite in the sky, almost everyone's attention was focused on Venusaur, eager to witness this historic moment.

Countless flashes lit up the playground for Shang Qiu; if you didn't know better, you might think you were at a concert by Eason Chan with tens of thousands of attendees.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Venusaur approached Corviknight next to Shangqiu, lay sprawled on the ground, exposing its belly.

Everyone on the playground was stunned. What happened to the promised Elite Four-level Pokémon becoming their master?

Isn't this how animals show submission to each other?

Chapter 554 Before leaving

Venusaur lay on its back, its dark green belly exposed, appearing submissive to Corviknight.

Corviknight had just been helped into a seat by Garchomp when it was startled by Venusaur.

"Venusaur, what are you doing?"

"My master is over there, you can just go into his Poké Ball."

Venusaur remained lying on its back, staring unsuspectingly at Corviknight.
