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

Chapter 66 Mutual Recognition

Two days have passed since the Asagi Dojo incident.

That noon, Su Sheng and his two companions were having lunch at home.

The television in the living room is playing the news.

"Golden Roar TV": "Indigo League Elite Four member Aldus gave an interview, stating that Joker's behavior is a major provocation against the League and a contempt for the lives of the citizens. Everyone in the Johto region knows that his younger brother, Eltese, is a kind Gym Leader. Joker will definitely pay the price for this bullying behavior."

Yishu curled his lip in disdain. "Their family is the problem. Now they're the ones who are blaming others first."

"Hey! Asheng, aren't you angry?"

Yi Shu asked Su Sheng.

Even someone as dim-witted as myself could see that there was something seriously wrong with the Altes family.

How could Su Sheng not see it?

However, now, it is the other family that has occupied the moral high ground.

It's so frustrating to think about.

"What's there to be angry about? And when have we ever been good people?"

Su Sheng kept asking questions, which left Yi Shu somewhat at a loss.

Su Sheng never paid any attention to the outside voices from the beginning.

"Well, fine, since you don't care, I won't let Arcanine meddle with Rattata's business."

Yishu picked up the remote control and changed the channel.

Tabletop TV: "Besides Joker, we've learned that he has two accomplices. These two teenage suspects are estimated to be around 12 years old. It's hard to imagine that such young children would become criminals. This makes us question the education level in the Johto region. We hope that parents in all regions will pay more attention to their children's education. Next, let us introduce you to Orange Academy, the oldest academy in the history of the Elf Continent..."

"Haha! The Parthian Alliance still loves to cause trouble for headquarters as always!"

Upon hearing this from Table TV, the mouthpiece of the Padiya region, Ichiki couldn't help but feel smug.

"The two regions that are most at odds with the Quartz Alliance, which is the headquarters of the alliance, are Padia and Galar."

When this topic was brought up, Su Sheng couldn't help but smile slightly.

During the past six months of causing trouble in the Tokyo area, I have made the news whenever I've done so.

The reports from the Galar and Padia regions, more or less, added some veiled criticism or sarcastic remarks to the Quartz Alliance.

The reason is simple: the leaders of both regions are ambitious and want to develop their own regions to replace the Quartz Alliance as the leader.

Although the president of the Padiya Alliance is young and a woman, she attaches great importance to talent cultivation.

He would go to Orange Academy every few days to see if there were any promising talents.

Once discovered, we immediately focus on cultivating it.

And the president of the Galar League, Loz, is an even heavier figure.

To avoid the potential resource shortage problem in Galar a thousand years later, Eternatus was released directly.

Of course, there is another reason for this.

That is, he hopes that Leon can capture Eternatus, ascend to the throne of the strongest trainer, and lead Galar to become the strongest region.

He's a ruthless person too.

"By the way, Asheng, did you have Dairubi and the others stop their evolution because of that Joker record?"

Rika wasn't particularly concerned about the infighting between the leagues. She glanced at the Pokémon around the table who were also enjoying their lunch, then suddenly remembered something and asked Su Sheng.

Su Sheng's three Houndooms were clearly of a higher level than his own.

However, the evolution time was a little later, which was obviously Su Sheng's deliberate act.

After much thought, Rika concluded that "Joker's Record" was the only possible explanation.

"That's right. Although the Joker Records allow Daidai and the others to share experiences and achieve three times the growth rate, their teamwork still needs to be developed through training. Teamwork is something that is more suitable for Daidai, who is smaller in size. As their size increases, the training becomes more difficult."

Su Sheng continued to explain to the two of them:

"As for Daidai, Lulu, and Bibi, I hope they can achieve a synergy greater than the sum of their parts, just like the Six Paths of Pain."

"I see. That's why you always have the three of them train together."

Rika suddenly realized, then a question mark popped up above her head, "Wait, what is the Six Paths of Pain?"

Su Sheng smiled but remained silent when asked about this.

Looking back, it was more than two months of special training.

Su Sheng did not differentiate their training methods based on the differences in their fighting styles.

Instead, the main focus is on practicing coordination.

"Speaking of which, this thing is like a 'learning device' in a game, but the effect isn't that amazing."

Su Sheng suddenly remembered a magical item in the game with an effect as abnormal as "magic candy"—the learning device.

When you equip a Pokémon with this item, it will receive half of the experience points.

However, the Joker record created based on Bank's records isn't quite that overpowered.

Because the experience that Joker can record and share is only "experience," not "experience points" in the game.

The only thing that can be shared is combat experience.

In battle, experience is certainly important.

But more important is one's own body.

That's something you'll have to learn through practice.

As they were chatting, Su Sheng suddenly seemed to remember something, got up and took out a box of Pikachu chocolate cookies and three cans of Tauros from the cupboard.

They were poured into the food bowls of Umbreon and the three Houndooms, respectively.

"Everyone has worked hard, so please enjoy your meal."

"Woof woof!"

Dai Dai, Lu Lu, and Bi Bi let out two excited howls.

Because Su Sheng had previously checked the ingredients of Kentairo canned food and found that it contained too many additives; in his previous life, it was all about technology and ruthless techniques.

To ensure the development of Derubi and the others, I rarely buy them food.

I indulged myself a bit today.

Pikachu chocolate cookies hold special significance for Umbreon.

Because this was the spoils of war she and Su Sheng won for their first battle side by side.

Even though the opponent I beat was an elementary school student, it's nothing to brag about.

However, this snack was indeed very special to her.

"Um?"

Su Sheng noticed that Umbreon didn't eat the biscuits after he poured them out, which was in stark contrast to the three Houndooms on the other side.

The next second, something happened that shocked Su Sheng, no, everyone in the room and all the Pokémon.

Umbreon gently raised its front paw and pushed its bowl of chocolate biscuits in front of the three Houndooms.

"Really?"

The tree looked utterly incredulous.

You know, these two groups even got into a fight during dinner not long ago, but now...

"You've accepted them!"

Pear Blossom smiled slightly, resting her chin on her hand.

"Waaah..."

With bits of meat still stuck to their lips, Dai Dai, Lu Lu, and Bi Bi's eyes widened in disbelief.

I wonder if I'm dreaming.

"Buyi!"

Umbreon shook its head, and the corners of its mouth turned up.

The meaning is self-evident.

"Woof!"

The three Houndooms opposite them smiled back and pushed their food bowls forward.
