Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 318 The Arrival of the Crane Crown King, a Visit to the Ranch

Su Yu waited for a while, and finally, a wave of superpowers spread throughout the ranch.

The Crowned Queen rides a white horse, as merging with the Snowstorm Horse enhances her superpowers. This makes inter-regional travel much easier.

After the teleportation ended, the Crane Queen looked curiously at the ranch.

"The environment here matches my impression of you. Su Yu, you are indeed a very capable human being."

The Crowned King nodded slightly, his demeanor as elegant as ever.

In contrast, the Spirit Horse was much more rude. It charged straight at Su Yu and demanded the Black Radish from the Onion Wanderer unit.

"Okay, okay, I've kept them all for you. I'll go get them from the freezer."

Seeing this, Su Yu smiled helplessly.

"Crown King, why don't you explore this ranch on your own for now? Treat this place like your own home; there are no special restrictions here."

Upon hearing this, King Rai nodded.

While Su Yu was taking the radish, Zacian and Zamazent also ran in from outside the ranch. They had come to Donghuang earlier with Corviknight.

The two heroes approached the Calyrex King, and the shield-dog among them asked curiously:

"Your Majesty, before your arrival, we scouted this region. Just as you predicted, the sword and shield we left behind have indeed landed precisely in Donghuang."

"But... are we really not going to just retrieve that sword and shield set?"

The early arrival of the Sword and Shield duo was naturally arranged by Calyrex beforehand. Upon hearing this, Calyrex shook her head. She said:

"After the arrival of the Emperor, I actually tried to foresee the future again, and I succeeded. In the future of the Eastern Empire, I saw two world-ending catastrophes."

"One of those battles came from the Dark Night, which you defeated."

"So, we'll have to come to Donghuang again sometime. We'll see if we need to. Anyway, the sword and shield are there; they won't get stolen."

Upon hearing this, the sword and shield duo nodded.

"As for now, you can come with me and take a long-awaited trip."

Calyrex smiled kindly, and dismissed the Pokémon of the Slumbering Forest. He himself looked curiously at the Sky Tree.

Noticing the Crowned King's gaze, the Sky Tree swayed gently. At that moment, Su Yu opened the ice storage for the Spirit Horse and returned.

Upon noticing Su Yu's return, King Lei Guan asked:

"I have lived in Galar for so many years, which can be traced back to tens of thousands of years ago."

"But in all this time, I have never seen such a peculiar tree. What exactly is it?"

"This is called the Sky Tree," Su Yu replied.

Seeing the Crowned King's confusion, Su Yu explained the origin of the Sky Tree and told him the story of the World Tree's dream.

"I see... It seems that staying in one place all the time isn't good for me. I should go out and travel more in the future."

The Crowned King nodded. After thinking for a moment, He said again:

"Since those Dragonite have made an appointment with you, then I'll lend a hand. Perfect timing, I also want to see the magnificent sight of the Dragonite clan living in the trees."

As he spoke, King Rai-Crowned, riding a white horse, also waved his hands, unleashing the mighty power of the King of Abundance.

Unlike Suicune, whose power needs to be absorbed by the Sky Tree itself, these powers are directly channeled into the tree, aiding its growth. The effect is significantly stronger.

With this power, the branches of the Sky Tree began to stretch out again, growing rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the height of the Sky Tree doubled.

The information displayed in the system has also changed.

"Sky Tree - Youth"

"At 185 meters tall, this young sapling is still a long way from being the size of the World Tree."

185 meters, that's more than double!

Is this the immense power of the King of Abundance?

"Such a size should be enough for the Dragonite clan to live in, right?" Rare Crown King asked from the side.

"That's enough, that's enough. I'll have the tropical dragon inform them in a while," Su Yu quickly replied.

After that, the Crowned King looked at his little lamb mount, who was lazily sunbathing to the side.

He could sense that this Sky Tree was only just beginning to develop. But His power was limited, and He would have to return to Galar later, so He couldn't stay here for long.

Therefore, the task of stimulating the release of the Pokémon could only fall to the Pokémon in the ranch.

The three little lambs that she rode were quite intelligent and would be suitable candidates. King Rai-Crowned thought that perhaps she could pass on some of her skills to them.

"Speaking of which, I've noticed it for quite some time now."

"Why do the plants in that greenhouse look so strange? I can tell that they don't seem to belong to this era."

What the Crowned King was referring to were naturally those plants from ancient times.

Su Yu recounted his experiences in the time machine in detail. After listening, the Queen of the Crane King showed a surprised expression:

"I never imagined that you had such a strange experience before you came to find me."

"Why are those ancient Pokémon so ferocious? I've never seen anything so strange when I was in Galar."

Even if Pokémon have become more friendly due to domestication by humans, it's impossible that all ancient Pokémon disappeared because of domestication, right?

At the very least, it should have left traces in the strata. But before this, there had never been any related discoveries.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu shared his hypothesis about parallel worlds.

The Crowned King then said:

"After hearing your hypothesis, I completely agree with your view of a parallel world."

"That explanation seems more reasonable. Of course, I can also ask the legendary god who created the earth. Perhaps He knows whether ancient Pokémon exist."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu was reminded of Groudon, who was still traveling in the ocean.

I wonder if Lao Gu has arrived at his destination yet.

……

Over the next few days, the Crowned King also stayed at the ranch.

As He observed the ranch, He learned from Su Yu's management experience. He also wanted to return and properly manage the Misty Forest, transforming it into a ranch-like place.

This idea made Su Yu exclaim, "Wow!" But upon closer reflection, it didn't seem impossible for the King of Abundance to personally farm the land.

After spending a few days at the ranch, the Sword and Shield dogs became obsessed with the donuts made by Su Yu. They spent their days eating and sleeping, living a very lazy life.

No wonder their dwelling place is called "Sleepy Forest"—that's why, isn't it?

This left Onion Soldier, who wanted to learn sword techniques from them, feeling somewhat at a loss for words. Later, Su Yu also entrusted Onion Soldier with delivering donuts, allowing it to take the opportunity to talk to him.

"Speaking of which, Su Yu, what exactly is this black box called a cell phone?"

"I've noticed that all the Pokémon in your ranch have been obsessed with this thing these past few days, which makes me very curious."

While basking in the sun and brewing tea outside, King Raiguan suddenly asked a question.

This made Su Yu hesitate. If he explained, he was afraid Calyrex would become addicted. That would mean another internet-addicted Pokémon on the ranch…
