Elf: I Am a Farmer

Sakaki and Masato were indeed caught off guard by Shaymi's sudden appearance, since the detection instruments in their aircraft had not detected Shaymi's presence.

You should know that this detector was carefully developed by the scientists of Team Rocket. Logically speaking, it should be impossible for a legendary Pokémon to ignore it, given its energy level.

What the two didn't know was that Shaymin's ability to hide was top-notch even among legendary Pokémon. As long as it didn't want to be discovered, even other legendary Pokémon would have a hard time finding it.

Without any warning from the detector or her own mental scan, Naz was suddenly attacked and seriously injured.

"hateful!"

At this moment, Naz could feel her body frantically sending out alarms. If she hadn't been forcibly supporting her body with her mental strength, she would have already been seriously injured and unconscious.

This was the second time that Naza had been defeated by Chiba Kaede. Her intense resentment prevented her from falling into a coma immediately, but all she could do at this moment was glare angrily at Chiba Kaede.

Perhaps sensing that Sabrina was in extremely poor condition, her elves abandoned their opponents and came to her side to protect her.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chiba Kaede began to command his own Pokémon to besiege the enemy Pokémon scattered in various places, striving to defeat them in one fell swoop.

Without Sabrina and her Pokémon to stop them, it wasn't long before the other Team Rocket members' Pokémon were being driven back in disarray, and they were on the verge of collapse.

Before Chiba Kaede's excitement could fade, several more people disembarked from the spacecraft, led by none other than Team Rocket's leader, Giovanni.

"Kid, I underestimated you. One last question: are you really not going to join our Rockets team?"

Although he knew the chances were slim, Sakaki decided to give it one last try.

"Sorry, I'm not joining the Rockets!"

Without even hesitating, Chiba Kaede directly rejected Sakaki's invitation.

"Then there's no other way. Come out, Darkrai!"

After receiving the expected answer, Sakaki threw out a Dark Path ball.

Darkrai is a shadowy black elf with a head of white, constantly swirling hair that covers most of its face, leaving only its bright blue eyes visible.

It had a red, serrated object around its neck, like a collar, and a long, black rag hanging from each of its shoulders.

Darkrai has black, claw-like hands with three claws. It is usually in a legless, floating state, but it can also stand with two legs extended.

Darkrai is active on the night of the new moon. It uses its power to lure its targets into a deep sleep and into dreams, causing nightmares for humans and elves to protect itself and drive them out of its territory.

However, it is not malicious in itself. There is a saying that Darkrai brings terrifying nightmares on moonless nights.

"Darkrai, the Nightmare God!"

Chiba Kaede was also somewhat surprised when he saw Darkrai, who was like the Grim Reaper in the night.

Like Moltres, Darkrai also has a shackle-like device around its neck, indicating that it is also under control.

"Darkrai, the Dark Hole!"

As Giovanni gave the order, streams of pitch-black dark energy surged in all directions, and anyone or any spirit that came into contact with this dark energy would be immediately plunged into the nightmare world it wove.

Chiba Maple is protected by Shaymi and can escape the effects of the Dark Hole skill, but the other elves cannot resist this power.

The overlord King Yan and the monstrous strength could only hold out for a little longer before inevitably falling into a deep sleep.

However, Chiba Kaede believed in them and believed that they could break free on their own.

"It's much quieter now, young man, but your time is running out!"

Sakaki glanced around at the people and elves sprawled on the ground, and said with apparent satisfaction.

Chiba Kaede understood what Sakaki meant: once these spirits were trapped in Klei's nightmare world, they would suffer continuous damage from nightmare energy until they died.

That is why Darkrai is called the Nightmare God, as it can cause people to die in agony.

The best course of action now is to defeat Darkrai as soon as possible; only in this way can the elves trapped in the nightmare be saved.

"Shami, it's up to you! Use Playful Harassment!"

Chiba Kaede knew he had been pushed to the edge of a cliff. If he couldn't defeat Darkrai in front of him, everything he had held onto would be for naught.

Upon hearing Chiba's command, Shaymin in his Sky Form nimbly traced an arc in the sky before flying towards Darkrai.

"Darkrai, Dark Pulse!"

Sakaki, naturally, wouldn't allow Darkrai to be attacked, and immediately gave the order.

Countless dark energies appeared around Darkrai and then swept towards Shaymi in his sky form like a tidal wave.

Faced with seemingly endless evil energy, Shemi did not choose to dodge. Instead, she formed a green energy cloak around her body and rushed into it.

Although Shaymin suffered some damage, it eventually managed to hit Darkrai with Play Rough.

After suffering significant damage from the skill, Darkrai showed a pained expression, but quickly returned to his original listless state.

Clearly, Darkrai, who was being controlled by Giovanni using a special device, could still feel pain, but because his will had been taken over, he quickly returned to normal.

Chiba Kaede knew that if he could inflict more damage than a certain level on Darkrai, he might be able to awaken its own consciousness, but it would be difficult to do so.

After all, Shaymin is not the kind of Pokémon that is proficient in battle, even in its current Sky Form. At most, it can only hold off Darkrai, and it is very difficult to truly defeat it.

Meanwhile, Chiba Kaede turned her gaze to the distance, where Diancie was engaged in a fierce battle with Moltres.

However, Chiba Kaede also knew that Diancie's strength was still at the bottom level among the Phantom Spirits, since it had only been a short time since its successful transformation.

Fortunately, Moltres is currently just a controlled puppet and cannot unleash its full power, which allows the two sides to reach a state of balance.

The only way to break the deadlock is for Chiba to successfully Mega Evolve Diancie into Super Diancie.

However, this would exhaust all of his trump cards. If Giovanni still had any trump cards left, he would be unable to compete with him.

Ultimately, it comes down to strength. It's quite remarkable that Chiba Kaede has been able to fight against Sakaki, who has the support of an entire dark organization, all on her own.

In fact, Chiba Kaede had been stalling for time. With the battle raging so fiercely here, he didn't believe the Hoenn League wouldn't notice.

If the Hoenn League sends reinforcements, the situation will completely reverse, and Giovanni, the Team Rocket leader, will be the one considering how to escape. (End of Chapter)
