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

Chapter 94 I! Am invincible under heaven!

Angel put away the Poké Balls containing the Salt Giant and Salt Pokémon, and didn't let them out again, because the Salt Giant and Salt Pokémon were too slow. If they were left outside together, they wouldn't be able to get back to the observation station by tomorrow morning.

At this moment, Angie asked Pipa, "Pippa, since you want to be a chef, why don't you tame a Salt Stone Treasure as a partner? Salt Stone Treasures are very rare partners for chefs."

Although theoretically children in the Pokémon world can only own Pokémon after they turn ten, there is a method called foster care, which involves temporarily storing Pokémon in the name of a parent or older sibling until they turn ten.

That's how Pipa's mastiff godfather was.

Pipa is not far from turning ten.

Piper was taken aback by this, as he hadn't even considered the issue of capturing Pokémon.

"Can... I?" Pipa looked up at Ange and asked.

Anjie said with a smile, "You'll have to ask Salt Stone Treasure and the others about that."

Upon hearing this, Pipa turned to the Salt Stones and asked, "Would any of you like to come with me?"

The scene was quiet for a moment, and finally a small Salt Stone Treasure emerged from the group.

"Naku~"

However, it's not a Pokémon that's easily captured.

Ange reminded Pipa, "It's inviting you to a battle, why don't you go?"

"Oh~ Oh~" Pipa finally realized what was happening, then pointed at the Mastiff Godfather and said, "Mastiff Godfather, please."

The Mastiff Godfather nodded, then leaped to the opposite side of Salt Stone Treasure, confronting him.

The outcome of the battle was, of course, not surprising at all. That Salt Stone was just a baby Pokémon, and the Mastiff Godfather dealt with it with ease.

Pipa threw out a Poké Ball, and Saltstone turned into a red light and was captured. With a "pop," it was successfully captured.

Pipa ran over, picked up the Poké Ball, and carried it to Angel and Godfather Mastiff. "Godfather Mastiff, Brother Angel, I received the Salt Stone!"

This was his first time catching a Pokémon, so he was very excited and his face flushed.

"Good job, well done." Anjie gave him a thumbs up, encouraging him.

Pipa carefully released Saltstone, then took a tree fruit from his backpack and fed it. Soon after, Saltstone reopened its eyes.

Papa's habit of carrying tree fruits with him was something he learned from Ange. Different tree fruits have different effects: some replenish physical strength, some can relieve poisoning, some can relieve burns, some can relieve confusion and paralysis... In short, they can play a very important role at crucial moments.

After Saltstone woke up, it hopped and skipped around Papa's feet, clearly having accepted him.

At this moment, the leader of the Salt Giants walked to Anja and Pipa's side, broke off a piece of its body and handed it to the two of them. The part that fell off its body was precious rock salt, which was not only a seasoning but also an important healing material.

Since ancient times, salt stones, salt mounds, and salt giants have been highly valued in the Parthian region.

Anjie was startled by the Salt Stone Giant's actions and, looking at the gash in its body, asked, "Are you alright?"

The Salt Stone Giant shook its head. As long as it ingests enough rock components, its body can quickly regenerate. If it can learn to regenerate on its own, the speed will be even faster. As long as the key parts are not damaged, it will not affect them.

They often polish their bodies on the rocks, removing any excess growth, otherwise their bodies would only become heavier and heavier, eventually becoming a burden.

The part that is polished off is the rock salt that people like to collect.

Salt Giants are very gentle Pokémon; they often share their rock salt with injured Pokémon to heal their wounds.

The Salt Giant shared rock salt with Angel and Pipa in the hope that Angel and Pipa would treat its kin better in the future.

Anjie took the rock salt and solemnly said to the leader of the Salt Stone Giants, "I will definitely take good care of the Salt Stone Giants and the two Salt Stone Treasures, don't worry."

Pipa also took the rock salt and said with the same serious expression, "I will take good care of Salt Stone Treasure as well."

Upon hearing this, the Salt Stone Giant nodded in satisfaction, its eyes narrowing into crescent moons.

Seeing that it was getting late, Anjie bid farewell to the Salt Stone Giant: "Then, Salt Stone Giant... as well as Salt Stone Fortress and Salt Stone Treasure, we'll take our leave."

The Salt Stone Giant nodded and waved to Anjie and the others.

As soon as they left the rocky area, Bubo eagerly reached out to Anjie.

"Bu~Bu~"

Anjie said, "I know, you'll get your share!" As he spoke, he took out a cucumber and handed it to Bu Bo.

Bu Bo took the cucumber and began to happily nibble on it.

A cucumber is not long enough to last long; it was devoured clean by Bu Bo in no time.

Looking at his empty hands, and then at Anjie riding on the back of the Super Powerful Ostrich, Bubo felt a sense of loss.

It's gone again...

When Anjie and the others returned to the observation station, Tianxi had already set up tables and chairs at the door, waiting for Anjie to come back and cook.

When she saw Ange return, Tianxi waved to him with a sweet smile.

"Anjie, you're back!"

As Anjie dismounted from the back of the Super-Powered Ostrich, she asked, "You're back. Have the doctors finished their research on you?"

Tianxi shook her head. "Not yet, we should continue this afternoon."

Anjie nodded, asked a few questions about the professors' research, and then summoned Snorlax and Lizard from their home.

"Snorlax, transform into Lizard. How's the shop today?" Angie asked.

"Gang~~" Very good, Master.

The little Snorlax came affectionately to Anja's side, took Anja's hand, and answered.

"Chirp~ Chirp~" With me here, there's no problem!

The lizard proudly gave itself a thumbs up.

"Thank you for your hard work, you two!" An Jie reached out and patted the tops of his two apprentices' heads.

The little Snorlax squinted its eyes, enjoying being petted by its master. A sense of pride and satisfaction welled up inside it, and a slight blush appeared on the smug face of the Lizard.

Then Anjie released the Salt Stone Giant and the two Salt Stone Treasures and introduced them to everyone.

Everyone warmly welcomed their new companions. Feeling everyone's enthusiasm, the Salt Stone Giant and Salt Stone Treasure, who were initially a little worried, quickly became friends with everyone.

Seeing the Pokémon enjoying themselves so much, Ange said with satisfaction, "Let's use the rock salt that Giant Salt Spirit gave us to cook with for lunch today, and see how it differs from cooking with regular salt!"

"Oh~~"

The Pokémon cheered, filled with anticipation for today's lunch.

Anjie took out a container, put the still-lump rock salt into it, and then gently ground it with a pestle, intending to grind it into fine salt.

At this moment, Diancie walked over and said, "Leave this to me."

Anjie nodded upon hearing this and handed the vessel and pestle to it.

"What should we eat for lunch today?" Anjie asked.

"Just now!" Eating fish!

Snorlax was the first to raise its hand; it loves eating fish the most.

"Okay, then I'll steam a fish today, but I'm out of fish here, Munchlax will have to go home and get it!" Anja said.

"No problem."

Seeing that its master had accepted its suggestion, the little Snorlax jumped for joy.

Anjay teleported the little Snorlax back home, and soon it returned carrying a large fish almost as long as itself.

The fish that were originally kept in the pool on the fifth floor of Angel's secret fortress had long been eaten up. This one was a new one that the Water-type Pokémon caught from Lake Nebel outside the fishing grounds.

Looking at the large fish, Anjie thought for a moment and said, "Let's make a spicy fish head dish with the fish head, and a tofu and fish stew with the fish body." Then he assigned tasks, "Snorlax will make the spicy fish head dish, and Lizard will make the tofu and fish stew."

"Gang~~"

Upon hearing this, the little Snorlax immediately became very enthusiastic and took the fish to prepare it.

"Chirp~"

The lizard quickly chased after them to help.

Then Angie said to Pipa, "Pippa, would you like to help me?"

"Okay~ sure." Pipa was also full of enthusiasm.

Pipa was filled with anticipation at the thought of her parents enjoying the meals she had helped prepare.

"Let's pick these vegetables." Anjie said, taking out a pile of vegetables and putting them on the ground.

Orion and Charcoal Boy immediately came over to help.

As Anjie picked them, she demonstrated, "Look, just remove the roots and old leaves."

"And this, keep the tender parts and remove the old parts."

With the help of Piper, Orion and Charcoal Boy, Angie quickly finished preparing the vegetables.

As time went by, a rich aroma gradually rose and drifted further and further away.

Anjie took a bite of the bok choy she had just stir-fried with rock salt, and her eyes lit up.

These greens were grown by Anjie's family. They are naturally tender and juicy, and even a simple stir-fry makes them incredibly delicious.

Now that rock salt has been added, the freshness of the greens seems to be amplified countless times, making them incredibly delicious.

Moreover, the freshly cooked stir-fried vegetables were bright and vibrant green, and I don't know if it was because of the rock salt or the Orlyon oil, but they even had a color-enhancing effect.

Anyway, Anjie had never cooked such beautiful green vegetables with ordinary oil and salt before.

As dish after dish was served, the aroma in the air grew increasingly rich.

"Cough cough~"

"Cough cough~"

Two fragrant pigs sniffed excitedly and circled around Anjie's feet.

Anjie laughed and said, "You two, stop circling around me, or I'll step on you and spill the food I just cooked."

That won't do!

Upon hearing this, the two fragrant pigs immediately ran to the side and lay down quietly, watching Anjie cook, occasionally slurping up the glistening food from the corners of their mouths.

Not far away, a cat named Bubo, following the scent, poked its head out from the grass. It wiped the drool from the corner of its mouth, grabbed a handful of grass, stuffed it into its mouth, and then spat it out with a "pui".

Lunch was almost ready when the two doctors, along with Rachel and a group of researchers, came out following the aroma.

Everyone happily sat down at the table, eating and chatting in a lively atmosphere. Papa even introduced his newly captured Salt Stone Treasure to his parents.

Both doctors were very happy for Pipa.

A tablecloth was laid out on the grass, allowing Super Powerful Ostrich, Salt Stone Giant, Salt Stone Treasure, and Fragrant Pig, who were not suited to eating at the table, to sit on it and eat together.

Anjay didn't sit at the table either. He sat on the tablecloth with Pipa and Laquell, keeping the Pokémon company, like they were having a picnic.

Diancie and Munchlax were very gentle. One carried a food bowl and the other carried a vegetable bowl. Whenever a Pokémon needed more food or vegetables, they would carry the food bowl and vegetable bowl over to it.

Seeing this, Ange said, "Tianci, Snorlax, stop what you're doing and sit down to eat with us."

Diancie: "Coming!"

Snorlax: "Okay~" Master!

This was the first time the three Salt Stone Treasures had eaten human food, and it was so delicious that they buried most of their bodies in the food bowl, eating with great joy.

No one noticed that a small mound suddenly rose up on the grass, and that the mound was rapidly approaching the tablecloth.

Soon the mound reached the edge of the tablecloth, where a Pokémon, with a patch of grass on its head, quietly peeked out with its eyes.

As Yan Shibao was happily eating, he couldn't help but squint his eyes. Just then, a chubby, short little paw stretched out from under the grass and snatched a piece of fish from Yan Shibao's bowl with lightning speed.

Because it was only one piece, the Salt Stone Treasure was not discovered.

Under the grass, the Pokémon eagerly stuffed the fish meat into its mouth, then happily licked its fingers.

"Bu~~~" It's so delicious!

Savoring the taste of the fish, the Pokémon couldn't resist and quietly lifted the grass on its head, reaching out to try and grab another piece of fish.

When Yan Shibao looked down, he saw a chubby little hand holding a piece of fish trying to pull it back.

"Naku~~"

Salt Stone Treasure cried out in surprise and instinctively used its Falling Rock skill to strike the little chubby hand accurately. The little chubby hand was instantly swollen from the impact, but even so, it did not let go of the piece of fish meat. Instead, it quickly pulled its hand back into the hole with the fish meat still attached.

"What's wrong, Salt Stone Treasure?" Anjie asked after hearing the commotion.

"Naku~Naku~"

Salt Stone Treasure kept calling out as he looked at the patch of grass.

Suddenly, the grass swelled up and turned into a small mound, fleeing into the distance.

"What the hell?" Anjie exclaimed in surprise.

Before Anjie could react, the Super Ostrich had already leaped away with its long legs and used its pecking drill to accurately peck at the small mound.

With a scream, the small mound was lifted, and a yellow Pokémon was dug out. It lay sprawled on the ground, its mouth covered in oil from eating. After being pulled out, it wiped its mouth vigorously and smacked its lips twice.

Who else could it be but Bu Bo?

"Naku~Naku~"

Saltstone Bao angrily yelled at Bubo, accusing him of stealing his food.

Bubo didn't care and tried to get up to dig a hole and run away, but the Super Ostrich had already grabbed the back of its neck with its mouth, and no matter how much it struggled, it couldn't break free.

"Bu~Bu~Bu~" Let me go, let me go! Or I'll get rough!

Bubo shouted loudly.

Anjie said, both amused and exasperated, "You still have the nerve to talk back? You were the one who stole their food."

"Naku~Naku~"

Yan Shibao loudly echoed Anjie.

"Bu~bu~" What's wrong with eating a little bit!

Bu Bo was perfectly justified.

"Hey~ you're pretty wild!" Anjie was amused by it.

At this moment, Bubo suddenly said something astonishing:

"Bu~Bu~~" I stole something, so since you're going to punish me, then punish me by making me your Pokémon.

If it becomes this human's Pokémon, can it eat whatever delicious food it wants from now on? Hehe~

The abacus was clicking away.

Anjie: ω)

"No... are you serious?"

Why did he suddenly feel that this guy had planned this all along? Could it be that he really had his eye on him?

"Bu~Bu~" Yes, yes, I was also doing it reluctantly.

Bu Bo nodded seriously.

"In that case, forget it. I don't want to force you," Anjie said deliberately.

Bubo was very pleased to hear this.

"Bu~Bu~" No, no! I'm very strong. You should be happy to be my Pokémon.

"You?" Anjie looked at Bubo with suspicion.

"Cloth~" Of course!

Bubo proudly puffed out its chest. It had defeated all its kind before it came out to cultivate alone. However, it did not expect that cultivating alone would not be easy, and it often had to go hungry.

Upon hearing Bubo's words, Anjie activated his Observational Eye. He hadn't really paid attention to Bubo's data when they traveled together before.

After seeing it, Anjie was stunned. He had actually encountered an extremely rare Pokémon. Its stats were... the most impressive Pokémon Anjie had ever seen, apart from Diancie.

And it even learned the Thunder Fist!

Logically speaking, Bubo cannot learn Thunder Fist in the initial stage; he can only learn it when he reaches Butubo and Babutubo.

But this cloth-wielding creature actually learned how to do it ahead of time.

Anjie couldn't help but ask, "Are you really a genius?"

"Cloth~" Of course!

Bubo nodded proudly.

"Bu~Bu~" Now you know how powerful I am, right? Hurry up and subdue me!

"We really have no choice but to subdue them!" Anjie thought to himself.

Although he wasn't a trainer, he couldn't help but feel itchy when he encountered such an excellent Pokémon, especially since Buppu had taken the initiative to embrace him.

Besides... Bubo is so cute, all fluffy and round, it must feel so nice to hold in your arms.

Anjie: "Then I won't be polite!"

"Bu~Bu~" Come on, come on!

With the scruff of its neck being held by the super-powerful ostrich, its whole body swayed in the air like a pendulum, and coupled with its "bring it on" expression, it was both hilarious and adorable.

Anjie took out a Poké Ball and threw it at Buppu, which immediately turned into a red light and was absorbed into it.

Thump thump~ thump thump~

The Poké Ball landed on the grass and wobbled for a moment before finally falling silent with a "thud".

Successfully captured!

Little genius, smug Bubo, GET DA☆ZE!

Anjie released Bubo back into the wild and said to it, "Bubo, please take care of me from now on!"

But Bubo immediately grabbed his leg and said impatiently:

"Bu~Bu~" It's delicious, give me something delicious!

"Alright, alright! Here's some food for you!" Anjie said helplessly.
