Pokémon: Starting with a strongman and a slacker

Page 237

"I know you serve the god of the sea, but what does that have to do with me trying to subdue you?"

"It's okay, but I refuse!"

After saying that, Articuno turned and flew away!

Bai Jing was stunned; it actually ran away!

"Hey~ You're supposed to be a god, aren't you? Don't you have any dignity?"

The articulated bird ignored it and flew even faster!

It's not stupid. If it doesn't want to be subdued by humans, why would it wait to get beaten up if it doesn't run away?

It knew very well how terrifying Hercules was; it had no choice but to run!

Unfortunately, Articuno didn't know Slaking's true strength, otherwise it probably wouldn't have run away!

"Chase!"

Bai Jing refused to give up and chased after him.

Although the King of Leave may not be able to defeat it, it's a rare opportunity, so we should give it a try. What if we succeed?

Moreover, there are no outsiders here, so even if I subdue them, it won't be a problem, and I don't have to worry about the news leaking out.

They chased Articuno all the way to the exit before stopping!

The cave entrance is located halfway up the mountain, facing the boundless sea and the vast sky.

At this moment, Articuno had already flown into the sky.

"Give up, humans! I may not be able to defeat Hercules, but he won't be able to catch me either!"

Bai Jing was truly at a loss for words, wondering why Articuno was so cowardly. What happened to its fiery temper?

"Aren't you afraid I'll take over your territory?"

"If you like it, you can have it!"

Articuno isn't stupid; it knows that Whitebeard won't stay here for long because humans can't survive in the freezing cold. This territory is still its own, and it can't run away!

If Moltres and Zapdos flew over and said that, Articuno would beat them to a pulp in no time!

"Sigh~ There's nothing you can do when you encounter a cowardly bird!"

I couldn't help but complain to Wang, who was asking for leave, "Wouldn't it be great if you could fly?"

Wang rolled his eyes, so it was my fault?

"Hey! Forget about Articuno, I knew from the start you wouldn't succeed, look over there!"

Deng Xin suddenly shouted, and Bai Jing looked in the direction she was pointing. It turned out that there was a group of dragons leisurely swimming on the sea.

Bai Jing said self-deprecatingly, "Is this considered losing one thing but gaining another?"

"Let's go, I'll take you to catch one!"

After releasing the dragons, the two rode on them and headed towards the group of dragons.

Chapter 244 Women are indeed all petty

Upon seeing its herd, the dragon seemed very happy, so the two simply waited aside and let it stay with the herd for a while.

Afterwards, Deng Xin suggested that she wanted to tame one and asked if any of the Lapras would be willing to come with her.

The dragons all expressed their unwillingness. They are a peace-loving race that only wants to live happily and carefree, and do not want to be subservient to humans and fight.

Although Deng Xin was deeply disappointed, she had no choice but to give up and respect their decision.

The dragon riders were still not satisfied and expressed their desire to take Bai Jing's dragon rider with them as well.

Torn between his tribe and his family, Chenglong is caught in a dilemma.

"It's up to you. If you want to live with the tribe, I won't force you!"

"But if that's the case, we probably won't see each other again in the future. We're family, aren't we?"

Bai Jing said he would let the dragon choose for itself, but he was naturally reluctant to part with it. So he used a little trick to release all the spirits.

Slaking, Lucario, Charizard, Noivern, Larvitar, and Gible all looked at Lapras with reluctance.

While it's true that we should respect the Pokémon's wishes, Bai Jing says he can't do what Ash did—releasing Pokémon back into the wild!

(cfbg) Why? Why should we release the Pokémon we've painstakingly raised?

"If you can't bear to leave us, then don't go!"

"If you are leaving your tribe, we will consider this a farewell!"

Under the onslaught of family affection, Lapras succumbed, thinking about all the little things they had shared together, and ultimately couldn't bear to leave his family, including Bai Jing and Lucario.

That's for sure. After all, Lapras has lived with Bai Jing since birth and has the deepest feelings for Bai Jing and Lucario, so deep that it can make a choice even when faced with its own kind.

After saying goodbye to the dragons, the two returned to the cave, went to the top floor, told their classmate about the hidden world below, and then left to return to the town.

"Where shall we go next?"

Deng Xin seemed sullen after failing to tame a Lapras.

"Let's eat first, then we'll challenge the gym!"

"All right!"

"Cheer up. Catching Pokémon is all about fate. Next time, I'll help you find a Lapras Pokémon egg."

It's very difficult to encounter!

"I'm fine, it's just a little regrettable, but you said it yourself!"

"I understand. I'll definitely give it to you if I find it. Or, I'll give it to you when the dragon breeds offspring!"

"That's pretty much it!"

After finishing their meal, the two went to the Frozen Gym.

"Welcome to the challenge! I am Ling Linlin, the gym leader here!"

"Ring ring ring?"
