An elf, a genius scientist who traveled from the world of One Piece.

Chapter 17 Heavenly King Crossing, Dragon Head Groundhog is also a dragon!

"Cousin! Cousin!!"

When Xiaozhuang saw Adu fall, his mind went completely blank.

"Awoo!"

Needless to say, the Dragonite's anger was completely ignited by its master's collapse, which was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The next second, Dragonite endured the excruciating pain in his neck.

He turned around frantically, wanting to launch a killing move at Su Sheng.

"Look, you're in such a hurry again."

Su Sheng said with a smile.

Almost instantly, Dragonite, who had just turned around, felt a chill suddenly rise from behind.

He turned his head again.

The stinger of the bee magnifies rapidly in the pupil of the eye.

Pfft!

Following the dodo bird, his enormous body collapsed.

"This is the power of science."

Su Sheng pushed up the mask on the bridge of his nose as if he were adjusting his glasses.

"Cousin! Cousin Watari! Waaah~ Wake up!"

Xiao Zhuang had already rushed to Su Sheng's side, shaking A Du and shouting.

"Stop yelling, it was just a yawn."

Su Sheng said irritably.

He's supposed to be the Gym Leader of Blacksmith City in the future, who claims to be as strong as the Elite Four, but it turns out he was a crybaby when he was a kid.

"You, you..."

Xiao Zhuang was crying so hard that he could barely speak.

Immediately afterwards, Su Sheng took out a syringe from his pocket.

"What, what are you going to do now!?"

As the syringe, with a capacity comparable to a soda can, drew ever closer to his cousin, Xiao Zhuang panicked again.

"People with special powers are rare, let alone the power of Tokiwa. I'm very curious."

"Don't cry, it's just a blood draw, it's no big deal."

Xiao Zhuang didn't know what to say.

You call that "a little bit"?!

I probably can't even drink that much water in a day!

"Don't mess around, little birds."

Noticing the expressions of the Flying-type Pokémon around Adu's waist through the ball cover, Su Sheng "reassured" them:

"If you try to destroy the Poké Ball by force, you'll most likely end up hurting your own trainers."

Upon hearing this, Adu's elves immediately became much more obedient.

Su Sheng glanced at it a couple more times.

Two Dragonair, a blue Gyarados, an Aerodactyl, and a Charizard.

Goodness, they're all "dragons," but half of them aren't.

"Yeah, Dragonite is quite rare, so we'll try our luck with it."

After drawing the Dodo, Su Sheng set his sights on Dragonite.

I also managed to steal quite a few hairs.

"What a bumper harvest! It's so refreshing, like wearing brand new panties to welcome the New Year's morning!"

Su Sheng stretched lazily as he put the things back in his arms.

At this moment, they noticed Andres's dragon-headed gopher, who was still unconscious on the other side.

"Oh, by the way, Little Stake, why don't you have your cousin adopt it? After all, it's homeless now."

"Your cousin will probably like it, after all, the dragon-headed gopher is still a 'dragon'~"

When Su Sheng said those words, he couldn't help but laugh.

But there's nothing wrong with that, isn't there?

Aren't Gyarados, Charizard, and Aerodactyl in Awatari's team all like that?

The only problem is that Excadrill doesn't have a Flying-type.

"You, you..."

Xiao Zhuang was at a loss for words.

Watching Su Sheng's figure recede into the distance, Xiao Zhuang suddenly remembered something and shouted:

"Hey! You... what's your name!?"

Su Sheng paused, blinked, thought for a moment, and answered without turning his head:

"Joker".

Then, along with Umbreon and Beedrill, they took the unconscious Andrees and disappeared completely into the forest.

"Joker..."

Xiao Zhuang repeated the name in a low voice, then gritted his teeth a few seconds later and said indignantly:

"Get ready to be locked up in the Alliance Prison!"

……

……

"Well……"

A-Du struggled to open his eyelids.

What came into view... was the ceiling of the Royal Dragon Clan's room.

Although he doesn't live here often, we still know each other.

"Waaah~"

Next, what A-Du saw were two Hakronos with worried expressions.

Meanwhile, his own dragons, including Dragonite, Blue Gyarados, and Charizard, also came over with concerned expressions.

Adu jolted awake and immediately sat up in bed.

"Where is that guy?!"

Adu didn't say Su Sheng's name, but the Dragonite all knew who their master was talking about.

Each of them looked hesitant, heads bowed, and remained silent.

"Cousin...Joker...he's gone..."

Just then, Xiaozhuang walked in with a sea dragon. Seeing Adu's appearance, she was a little scared.

"Joker? Is that guy's name?"

A-Du gripped the bed sheet tightly.

"Cousin, cousin, that guy used underhanded tactics. You, you didn't lose..."

Xiao Zhuang tried everything he could to save face for A Du.

Little did he know that this only further wounded Adu's pride.

A loss is a loss, why make excuses?!

Seeing that Adu remained silent, Xiaozhuang knew that he had said the wrong thing.

Left with no other option, she could only awkwardly change the subject.

"Father, Father said this matter should not be publicized..."

"What do you mean?"

Adu's expression changed drastically.

Should we not publicize this?

Doesn't that mean we're not reporting this to the league?

Why not issue a warrant for that masked brat's arrest?

That won't do!

"Father, Father said that if word gets out that you, cousin, were...that you were...slept with by a Team Rocket kid...oh no, that you were made to fall asleep, it will...it will damage the reputation of 'Dragon Tamer'..."

In just one short sentence, Xiao Zhuang changed his tune several times.

Therefore, she wanted to avoid words like "lose," "failure," and "sleep" that might upset her cousin.

"Are you kidding me!?"

If just now Adu was only disappointed in himself.

Now he is disappointed with the entire Yulong family!

Why would you conceal information just because of such a trivial matter of saving face?

Are you kidding me?!

Is Adu, the Dragon Messenger, really such a shameless person?!

"Let's go!"

Lance didn't want to stay in this hypocritical place for another second. He recalled all his Pokémon except for Dragonite into their Poké Balls, rode on his starting partner's back, and was about to leave.

"Cousin! Rest a little longer..."

Before Xiaozhuang could finish speaking, he saw Adu ride a Dragonite from the window and fly into the sky, disappearing into the clouds.

And the direction they left was... the Quartz Plateau!

……

……

a few days later.

"We now have a breaking news segment."

"Last Friday, a malicious battle occurred on Route 45 in the Johto area. Wanted criminal Andres was kidnapped by a Team Rocket member. Based on the League's deductions, it is speculated that Andres had secret dealings with Team Rocket and was subsequently silenced by Team Rocket."

"This Rockets henchman calls himself 'Joker' and is currently listed as a Class A wanted criminal in the League. He has an extremely cunning fighting style and once fought against Elite Four member Lance and successfully escaped."

"This is a portrait of the Joker drawn by the League based on the description given by Avalokiteshvara. Please, everyone..."

A cottage on a clear blue beach.

Looking at the image of himself in mask mode on TV, and the host's description.

Su Sheng fell into a mysterious silence.
