Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master.

Chapter 416 Xiaoxia is here

"The Röntgen cat is so well-behaved; I never would have guessed it was so fierce before."

On their way to Fallleaf Town, Ash and his friends set up their temporary camp by an unnamed pond.

At this moment, Xiaoyao carefully stroked the head of the big cat who was focused on eating, her face showing an expression of being completely charmed.

However, when her hands occasionally brushed against the marks left on the Röntgen cat's body by the whip, she couldn't help but feel heartache.

"Ash, is it really true that Professor Oak can't find any news about Xeno'jiiva's original trainer? That person must be very sad to be forced to separate from their Pokémon."

"Röntgen must really want to see his trainer again."

Unfortunately, Ash shook his head.

"I asked Professor Oak to help me look up information about Poké Balls last night, but that guy with thick eyebrows has already erased all the information about the original Poké Balls, so there are no clues at all."

Xiao Zhi was also quite helpless.

All the poachers have been taken away and interrogated by Officer Jenny from a nearby town. Most of the Pokémon they steal are quickly resold.

So apart from this Xeno'jiiva, most of the Pokémon that Ash and his friends battled before were from the poaching group members themselves.

The Roentgenie is so powerful that Thick Eyebrows deliberately kept him around as part of his own fighting force.

Naturally, in order to completely win over the X-Rayet cat's heart and soul, Thick Eyebrows put in a lot of hard work.

In addition to brainwashing and abusing Pokémon, they also used bribery to erase the connection between Xeno'jiiva's previous trainer and the big cat from the league level.

"Professor Oak said he would try to find out if there was any information about missing Pokémon cases in the Sinnoh region, but there's not much he can do in the short term."

"Röntgen cats can only be cared for by us for the time being."

Professor Oak has helped so much without asking for anything in return, and Ash feels bad about troubling him all the time.

Moreover, this big cat now basically only trusts Ash, who makes it feel kindness; it can't take care of anyone else.

Don't be fooled by the fact that May can pet it freely; it's because Ash is standing right next to it.

Once Ash isn't around, Xeno'jiiva immediately goes into a state of stress and frantically hisses.

Of course, it's in great shape right now, as evidenced by the fact that it didn't resist being petted by Xiaoyao.

"Poor big cat, don't worry, we will definitely find your original trainer."

[Ding! Congratulations on triggering a new quest: "Oh, so deep is my love~ In the misty rain~, I meet you across a thousand miles~": Please help the poor Xenophon cat reunite with its true owner!]

Just then, Max and Pikachu returned after collecting wood and excitedly ran over to Xanthius to watch May pet the cat.

But then the bespectacled kid suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Ash.

"By the way, Ash, where did Miss Michelle go in the end?"

"Miss Officer Jenny arrived yesterday and then left without saying a proper goodbye."

"She's really unlucky to be chased by a poaching gang right after starting her trip."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhi panicked when he asked that question.

"You idiot, you can't ask that right now!"

Sure enough, as soon as Michelle was mentioned, Yao's little ears perked up.

"Haha, you're right, Xiao Sheng almost forgot about it if he hadn't reminded us."

"Xiao Zhi! Yesterday I asked you what your relationship was, and you just laughed it off. This time you have to tell me clearly!"

Faced with the aggressively approaching, busty girl, Ash retreated repeatedly.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, instantly changed his expression to a serious one, and held Xiaoyao's hand with deep affection.

"Xiaoyao! What is your relationship with me? What is my relationship with Miss Michelle?"

"And in my heart, her relationship with me will always be a little less important than yours with mine."

Now it's May's turn to be defeated. Faced with Ash's sudden bold words, she is too shy to speak.

"So, what do you think our relationship is right now, Haruka?"

"Ah, this, this—"

Upon hearing what Ash said, Haruka immediately blushed and turned her head away, no longer daring to ask about the relationship between Michelle and Ash.

The perverted scumbag Zhi has successfully resolved another crisis, yay!

As for Michelle's whereabouts, that was naturally arranged by Ash.

The main reason was that Michelle was genuinely terrified by the poaching gang's pursuit.

Originally a homebody, she spent many years burying herself in research and development, and finally invented a super-powerful AI-assisted glasses.

I happily changed into a cool new outfit, full of fighting spirit, ready to transform into a cool girl and start a brand new journey in my life.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out of her house, she unfortunately bumped into a "real cool girl" Pokémon hunter because of her clothing style and invention.

From then on, he was targeted by an evil organization and relentlessly pursued.

If we hadn't been lucky enough to run into Ash this time, I really don't know what the consequences would have been.

Moreover, Pokémon Hunter J, a ruthless criminal, has already set his sights on her.

Michelle escaped by chance this time, but if they send people over again next time, she doesn't know what to do.

Naturally, Xiao Zhi would want to protect his woman.

"Xue'er, you are the sleeping dragon and phoenix chick bestowed upon me by Arceus!"

"I have a great use for your brilliant intelligence; come and join my warm and loving harem family!"

Although she didn't know what "Wolong and Fengchu" meant, Michelle finally agreed to Ash's request after being persuaded by the sea rat, and she was sweating profusely.

They boarded the Pidgeon Skycar that had accompanied Officer Jenny and headed to Dark City.

She was received by Miss Sundae, the head steward of Ash's harem, and was bestowed the title of Snow Consort, concurrently serving as the Grand Scholar of the Divine Mechanism Pavilion.

They lived a blissful and happy life from then on. (Seriously!)

Everyone's happy! Everyone's happy!

"No way!"

"I'm not happy about what I just said and I got a few slaps from Ash," said Brock, who was standing to the side.

However, Ash ignored his complaints and just kept adding barbells to his hands.

"Take all of these, Xiaosheng. You have to stay here until the people we're waiting for arrive!"

"Ah, it's not that I'm petty, but I, the magnanimous Little Zhi, would never take revenge for personal reasons."

"This is a special plan designed so that you can grow better, so please complete it well."

"It's so heavy—you're so petty!" When Xiaosheng saw that Xiaozhi was still adding weight to him, he quickly gritted his teeth and backed away.

"Besides, we've been waiting here all morning. Who are we waiting for today?"

"Yeah, Ash, who are we waiting for?"

Not only Xiaosheng, but even Xiaoyao came over curiously to ask.

"Hey, didn't I say anything?"

"No!"

The siblings said in unison, and only then did Xiaozhi realize that he seemed to have forgotten something important.

What we're waiting for is—

"Ash, Pikachu, it's been a long time! How are you doing?"

"Poke~pi!"

Before Ash could finish speaking, a silvery voice came from afar.

With brisk steps and waving hands, the person running over joyfully was none other than Misty, who was carrying Togepi and making a long-awaited appearance.

Her beautiful face was beaming with smiles as she quickly ran to Ash's camp.

May and Max immediately jumped out from behind Ash, looking at the orange-haired beauty in front of them with surprise.

They had known each other for a long time and had always been very interested in Xiaoxia.

One reason is that Misty was Ash's travel companion before, and the other is that Misty is a new generation Gym Leader.

"Hello, Sister Xia, I've always wanted to meet you in person."

"Hello, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng. I often hear Xiaozhi talk about you guys." Xiaoxia smiled and shook hands with Xiaoyao in a generous manner.

Her demeanor was graceful and poised, displaying the dignified and elegant bearing of an empress.

As for why so many qualifiers are added, it's because at this moment, our world's number one beautiful girl is already staring intently at Haruka's two enormous, wicked breasts.

Although Xiaoxia's high-rise building is quite impressive after years of massage therapy by Master Zhi, it still pales in comparison to Xiaoyao's.

The great Confucius, what an amazing Confucian scholar!

However, Xiaoxia's legs are longer than Xiaoyao's, and she is also taller and more dashing. The two are super beauties with different temperaments and styles.

Ash seemed quite relieved about the meeting between the two women.

Because he knew that Xiaoxia was now experienced and had become a broad-minded woman who could fully become everyone's mother.

As for Xiaoyao, she was a bit slow-witted and couldn't see anything clearly when she saw Xiaoxia.

"Speaking of Xia, how's everything going at the dojo lately?"

Due to being busy with other matters, Xiao Zhi hasn't been back to Cerulean for two weeks.

"It's really not working out at all. My sisters are completely unreliable. I have to manage everything by myself."

"Especially that bastard, who even sent me such a huge megalodon to cause trouble!"

Xia gets angry when she talks about it. Several pools in the dojo were damaged by that shark, and it took them a lot of effort to clean them up.

"However, in the end, I was able to completely suppress and subdue Sharpedo thanks to the overwhelming strength of Gyarados and the others."

"Now it's completely obedient, and it even participated in the sisters' new water ballet drama performance a while ago."

"Wow, that ferocious megalodon has actually reached the point where it can perform!"

"That's amazing, Xia-jie! Her reliability is completely different from that of the eldest daughter of a certain dojo owner."

Xiao Sheng's admiration for Xiao Xia instantly rose by two points, surpassing even that of his own sister.

"Hey, Xiaosheng!"

"What are you doing, you idiot sister!"

"As children from the same dojo, shouldn't Xia-jie be our role model, taking over as dojo leader at such a young age and managing everything so well?"

"But what you just said seemed to have a hidden meaning. Were you subtly mocking your great and glorious sister?"

Xiaoyao raised her little pink fist, and the veins on her head throbbed.

"Really? Isn't it because you're so useless, sis, that everything you hear sounds like it's criticizing you!"

"What did you say?!"

The siblings immediately started fighting.

"Uh, Ash, your new partner is really—lively."

"Haha, with those two around, it's never boring." Xiao Zhi quickly separated the two.

At this moment, Xiaoxia took out the most important "reason" for her trip to Hoenn from her backpack: a beautifully packaged invitation.

"Ta-da! This is the invitation to the party I've taken two days off to attend in Hoi Yuen."

Xiao Zhi and his two friends quickly gathered around to take a look.

"A grand gathering of Togepi trainers from around the world?"

"That's right, I heard it's a grand banquet where all Togepi trainers gather to showcase their Togepi and exchange training tips."

"The event was hosted by a kingdom that idolizes Togepi. The venue was luxurious and all expenses were covered, so it seemed like a great opportunity, and that's why I came."

"The location is luxurious!"

"All-inclusive (food and lodging)!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get going!"

While Max and May were still excited, Ash had already snatched the invitation and was ready to leave.

But Xiaoxia immediately pulled him back.

"Wait a minute, I'm the one who was invited!"

"I called you over because I saw you happened to be nearby."

"Without Togepi and me leading the way, none of you would have been able to get in!"

Just now, when Ash took the invitation, he took the opportunity to touch Misty's hand. That familiar feeling has made the world's most beautiful girl's heart race.

"Seriously, Ash is such a rascal, always so bold."

She rolled her eyes at him, slapped away Xiao Zhi's restless hands that were always so skillfully evading the eyes of outsiders, and immediately turned to lead the way.

As she said, the venue for the banquet was quite close to where Ash and his friends were.

After packing their luggage, the group arrived at the entrance of a high-end convention center a few minutes later.

"Okay, this is it!"

"It looks pretty good."

May and her friends were immediately excited and wanted to go inside, but at that moment Ash noticed something was amiss.

"Wait a minute, there don't seem to be many Pokémon Auras inside. This doesn't seem like a place for hosting trainer banquets."

"But this is the address on the invitation," Xiaoxia said, puzzled.

At this moment, two strange guards wearing shawls with patterns similar to Togepi's eggshells came up to them as soon as they saw Ash and his friends hesitate.

"Are you a trainer who received an invitation to the Togepi gathering?"

After Xiaoxia showed them the invitation for confirmation, the two immediately beamed with smiles.

"Oh dear, what a distinguished guest! I'm so sorry for not welcoming you properly. Please come in!"

After saying that, they grabbed Xiaoxia's arm and tried to pull her inside, completely ignoring Xiaozhi and the others who were following behind them.

"Wait a minute, I have a partner—"

"Miss Misty, please hurry inside with Togepi, the banquet is about to begin."

It seems that the two gatekeepers don't even intend to let Xiaozhi and his friends enter the venue with Xiaoxia.

The strange appearance immediately alerted Ash.

He immediately stepped forward, his strong hands instantly dislocating their arms, grabbing their necks and lifting them up.

Those two dared to touch Xiaoxia; they must have a death wish. Xiaozhi grabbed them and carried them to the front door, then kicked it open.

"Hey, this place looks completely empty, it doesn't look like a banquet is going to be held here. You'd better give me a reasonable explanation!"

'

Ash confronted the two men fiercely.

"I can't breathe—"

"Ugh, have mercy—"

Faced with the threat of death, the two security guards' minds raced.

They specifically sought out a female Togepi trainer who was relatively delicate.

How could such a monster have infiltrated the group of people who came?

"This place—this isn't actually the main location—"

"This banquet is being hosted by our kingdom of Miraju, where the entire nation worships Togepi, so we will need to take an airship to the royal palace of Miraju later."

"That's right, the airship Miss Xia will be taking is right behind this building. You can trust us!"

"Ash?"

"----,All right."

With a look that reassured Misty, Ash, through his aura sensing, deduced that the statement about taking an airship to the Miraju Kingdom was not a lie.

However, based on their previous series of reactions, there is definitely a big problem with this invitation to Pokerby.

He first let go, causing the two guards to fall on their backsides.

"Then please take us to the Kingdom of Miraju. We are really looking forward to the Togepi Feast you will be hosting."

"Remember, bring all of us!"

Seeing Xiaozhi's fierce eyes, the two guards immediately nodded repeatedly, trembling.

Now Ash wants to see who is behind this and what their purpose is, that they dared to deceive Misty and Togepi.
