Elf: Seriously? You only get a cheat code when you're about to die?

Chapter 237 Bargaining with Kyogre

Seeing that there were still many fish, shrimp, and crabs that hadn't been brought into the fishing grounds, Anjie said to everyone, "Alright, everyone has been busy all night, let's go back and rest."

The Mosquito Coil Frog King hesitated for a moment, then swam up to Anjie and looked up at him, saying:

"Pop niu lu~ Pop niu lu~" But the fish haven't been caught yet.

Anjie said, "There's nothing we can do about not catching them all. Everyone worked hard all night in the rain. It would be a real loss if we got sick from catching fish."

Upon hearing this, Mosquito Coil Frog King, Mosquito Coil Swimmer, and Marill all lowered their heads in guilt. Anjie had entrusted them with such an important task of protecting the fish farm, but now the fish farm had suffered such a great loss.

It's their fault for not taking proper care of it!

Anjie smiled and comforted everyone, saying, "Don't act like the sky has fallen. We can raise more fish. It's not like we've lost them all. We've already caught some, and we can catch the rest later."

The mosquito coil frog king said, "Bonnieru~" But they will swim down the river into the Nibel River.

Once the fish enter the Nibel River, they can never catch them again.

Anjie comforted himself and everyone else, saying, "Let's consider it a blessing for the Pokémon along the coast. That way, everyone can catch fish to eat, and we'll be doing a good deed."

Having suffered such a great loss, how could he not feel heartbroken? But what's done is done. As the master of the Nibel Plateau and the backbone of everyone, what he had to do was not to be discouraged and undermine everyone's confidence, but to encourage everyone to cheer up.

Sure enough, with Anjie's comforting words, smiles gradually returned to everyone's faces.

"Alright, let's go home. You guys go back and get some sleep first, then come back to my place for dinner. I'll cook something delicious for you," An Jie said with a wave of her hand.

Upon hearing this, the Pokémon erupted in enthusiastic cheers, their fatigue from a busy night instantly vanishing.

And so, Anjai led a large group of Pokémon home.

However, when Ange and his group were halfway there, they saw Yveltal carrying a huge creature as it flew across the sky.

Ange had exceptionally good eyesight and immediately recognized that Yveltal was holding Kyogre.

At that moment, he finally understood why the sudden downpour had occurred.

As for why Kyogre was here, Ange was surprised, but he quickly figured out the reason.

This guy passed through the Nibel Plateau on his way back to Hoenn!

Thinking this, Ange urged the Pokémon to hurry home.

When they arrived at their doorstep, they found Kyogre lying unconscious in the square, with Yveltal crouching in front of him, and Volcanion and Xerneas also there.

As for Absol, who was unconscious, it has already been carried home by Snorlax and settled in.

Absol was severely injured in the battle between Kyogre and Yveltal. Even with Xerneas's healing, it did not fully recover and was clearly seriously injured.

When Mosquito Swimmer and Marill learned that last night's disaster was all because of Kyogre, they angrily rushed forward and punched and kicked him, not caring whether he was the god of the sea or not!

Even the usually mild-mannered Lapras were spitting at Kyogre.

Ange was also angry, so he didn't stop everyone's actions. Even though Kyogre was capable of controlling the weather, it let the rainstorm come.

It's easy to imagine that it must have caused quite a few disasters along the way.

What a tyrannical god!

However, the damage that players can inflict on Kyogre is very limited, amounting to only a tickle.

After everyone had vented their anger, they gradually went home to rest.

Given Georka's despicable behavior, Ange did not treat it, but silently waited for it to wake up.

While waiting, he took out his phone and browsed the news, and sure enough, he found that there were many reports about floods and torrential rains in the Carlos area recently.

The damage that Georka inflicted on the Carlos region is simply incalculable.

To Ange's surprise, Groudon didn't seem to have caused any special phenomena in Carlos; he couldn't find any reports about drought or fire.

Could Groudon actually be a gentle Pokémon that intentionally avoided the human world on its return journey?

What Angel didn't know was that Groudon didn't cause any damage, not because it was gentle, but because it had already returned to Hoenn before Kyogre and was now asleep in the volcano.

So how did Groudon, which can't fly, return to Hoenn before Kyogre?

It turns out that on its way back, it accidentally encountered Giratina, who was observing the world through the mirror of the lake.

Despite its fierce appearance and status as the ruler of the Distortion World, which makes it seem like some kind of great demon, Giratina actually has the gentlest personality among the Sinnoh Trinity.

So it took the initiative to show itself and help Groudon, sending it directly back to Hoenn through the Reverse World.

The Reverse World is connected to any place in the real world, and as the ruler of the Reverse World, Giratina can travel freely between them.

It can only be said that those who cannot fly are more fortunate than those who can.

After an unknown amount of time, Kyogre slowly woke up. When it saw Angel surrounded by Yveltal and Xerneas, it was stunned.

It was him! It recognized Anjie at a glance, the human it had fought against in the Desert City.

Although it only caught a fleeting glimpse of Anjie, it left a deep impression.

"You're finally awake, Kyogre!" Ange said in a sinister tone.

Georka flapped its fins, immediately trying to control the water vapor to fly into the sky and leave this place.

Although the creature in front of it looked like a frail human, it could command two gods. It had a premonition that if this guy got angry, the consequences would be severe.

It knows very well what it has done.

Unfortunately, just as Kyogre took flight, Xerneas leaped up, nimbly jumped onto its back, raised one foot, and used close combat to stomp hard on Kyogre's forehead.

"Ouch!" Kyogre let out a mournful cry and crashed heavily to the ground, crushing the stone slabs in front of Angel's house.

Anger was angry, but so was Xernias.

It is indeed mild-mannered and unassuming, but it's not so good-natured that it can laugh it off even if it gets ruined by Kyogre!

It loves the Nibel Plateau, loves Anje, loves everyone here, and has long since completely made this place its home.

However, the place suffered enormous damage because of Kyogre and became a complete mess.

Already injured, Kyogre had no chance to fight back against Xerneas. With Yveltal and Volcanion watching from the sidelines, it could only resign itself to its fate and lie on the ground.

Xerneas jumped off Kyogre's back after seeing that Kyogre had given in.

"Ugh~" Tell me, human, what do you want to do?

Anjie said angrily, "You've caused such great damage to our Nibel Plateau, and you're asking me what I should do! Shouldn't you compensate us?"

"Waaah~~" What kind of compensation do you want?

After a moment of silence, Georka asked. Of course, it didn't want to offer any compensation, as that wasn't in its nature, but the situation was beyond its control!

"Ugh~~~" Let me make this clear beforehand, there's no way you'll take my orders!

As it spoke, it glanced at Xerneas and Yveltal.

"Pah!" Ange spat at Kyogre. "You think I care about you?! Shameless!"

Indeed, commanding gods is a cool and prestigious thing, but Angel would neither force a Pokémon to obey him nor care for a Pokémon whose personality clashes with his.

Otherwise, Darkrai wouldn't still be suffering punishment in the capital.

Speak of the devil, and he appears! Just as Ange was negotiating with Kyogre, Darkrai returned from the royal city. It had just flown down from the third floor when it saw Kyogre lying on the ground in a sorry state.

It was completely confused. It had been gone all night. What had happened?

In fact, the torrential rains on the Nibel Plateau also affected the royal city of Azot. It rained all night, and the city's drainage system almost collapsed.

Furthermore, the water level of the Nibel River has risen sharply and is spreading towards both banks, almost flooding the royal city of Azot, which is now in chaos.

Jimmy and Edward have been busy since last night, and like Angie, they haven't slept all night.

Darkrai flew to Volcanion's side and quietly inquired about the matter. Volcanion didn't hide anything from it and told it the whole story in detail.

After listening, Darkrai suddenly realized that this was the reason for last night's rain, which had kept it traveling through the rain all night.

How awful!

Darkrai immediately joined everyone in their hatred of the enemy.

"Waaah~~" What kind of compensation do you want?

Georka asked Ange listlessly.

Anjie retorted angrily, "Do I have to figure out how to compensate you? Don't you have any sincerity at all?"

Georka was quite taken aback.

After a long silence, Kyogre suddenly emitted a bright blue light, and then a blue ball of light slowly flew out from Kyogre's body.

The blue ball of light flew straight towards Anjie and eventually landed in his palm, transforming into a palm-sized blue scale.

The scales were incredibly beautiful, dazzling like crystal, and Anjie could almost see ripples spreading within them.

Just by looking at them, you can tell that these scales are extraordinary, not to mention that Anjie can clearly sense the powerful water energy within them.

When he looked at the scales with his Eye of Observation, he saw that the Eye of Observation displayed:

Poseidon's Scale, when held by a Water-type Pokémon, increases the power of Water-type moves by 50% and subtly alters its affinity for Water-type energy. When held by a regular Pokémon, it increases the power of Water-type moves by 20%. (Modified, please don't criticize.)

After reading it, An Jie's pupils dilated in shock.

The Scale of the Sea God, so powerful! This is the first time he has ever seen such a powerful item!

Although she was shocked by the power of the Sea God's Scale, An Jie still showed strong dissatisfaction on her face.

"You've caused so much damage to our Nibel Plateau, and you're trying to fob me off with this piece of junk?"

Upon hearing this, Georka was furious!

What? Those are special scales infused with its own power, not ordinary scales. Does this person even know what they're talking about?

"Ugh~~" What do you want?

"Gyokka asked angrily."

Anjie said, "Look at what you have, what else can you give me in return!"

Kyogre was furious. It was suddenly summoned to the Kalos region by Hoopa. What else could it have on its body besides its scales?

Oh, and there's also the indigo pearl that can restore it to its original state, but this can't be given away; it's something that concerns its very life!

Seeing that Georka remained silent, Ange threatened it, "If you don't give me a satisfactory reward today, you're not leaving!"

As Angel finished speaking, Yveltal and Xerneas stepped forward in unison, unleashing their full power towards Kyogre.

Each of them individually would indeed have a hard time defeating a Kyogre that has reached Primal Reversion, but if they work together, even if Kyogre reaches Primal Reversion, it will be useless.

Kyoka's eyes widened in disbelief. How could there be such a shameless person in the world?!

"Waaah~" I really have nothing left to give you!

"Gyokka said."

"Then you can't blame me for holding you back. Your injuries must be very painful, right?" Anjie said, spreading his hands.

It was really uncomfortable, and Georka immediately wanted to use the Water Ring to heal himself.

However, just as the water ring around it appeared, a beam of light suddenly appeared and shattered the water ring.

It turned out that Yveltal used the Wings of Return to stop it.

Kyogre was furious! Couldn't he even heal himself?

It glared angrily at Yveltal.

And Ange smiled and gave Ypeltar a thumbs up.

The usually serious Yveltal showed a rare hint of a smile in its eyes and nodded gently to Angel.

Georka: ...

"Ugh~~" Here you go! Okay, fine!

As it spoke, its body once again radiated a bright blue light, and then Angel saw blue orbs of light appear beneath Kyogre.

However, this time Kyogre did not give its scales. As the light faded, water stones took shape.

And these water stones are incredibly pure.

So many Water Stones! Anjie shouted excitedly in his heart.

Water stones take many years to form naturally, much like oil. However, Kyogre, being a water deity, can use water energy to condense a large number of water stones in an instant.

Now the Mosquito Coil players will have enough Water Stones to evolve into Mosquito Swimmers!

While asking Darkrai to help her retrieve the Water Stone, Ange casually remarked:

"What? It's just a Water Stone. You can buy this as long as you have money. I'm not short of money. It's really the most useless thing."

Kyogre: Hey, hey, hey, please stop talking so fast while you're doing your hands!

"Not enough, not enough at all!" Anjie said, shaking his head.

Georka: ...

These damned humans, they're really pushing their luck!

"Ugh~~" What do you want? I really have nothing to give you!

Kyogre struggled to suppress his anger and tried his best to speak calmly.

Anjie knew she couldn't go too far, so she thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I won't make things difficult for you, you just need to agree to one more request."

Kyogre: Should I thank you?!

"Ugh~" What's the request?

"Gyokka asked."

Anjie said, "You owe me a favor. If I ever need your help in the future, please help me this once!"

Even if we don't know how to use this favor, it's better to have it than not!

Kyogre fell silent upon hearing this. It glanced at Yveltal and Xerneas again, and finally nodded, saying:

"Okay, as long as it's not an unreasonable request, I can help you!"

Upon hearing this, An Jie smiled brightly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of shameless person."

Georka looked at him suspiciously: Isn't this shameless?
