Elf: I Am a Farmer

"Heh heh, come out, Nidoking!"

At this point, the situation between the two sides had reached a balance. In order to break this balance, Giovanni continued to escalate the situation by releasing his main Pokémon, Nidoking.

"roar!"

This Nidoking appeared with a very ferocious aura, clearly indicating that it had become somewhat restless inside its Poké Ball.

"Oops!"

Chiba Kaede's expression changed drastically as he watched Nidoking walk towards him step by step.

Based on the imposing presence of this Nidoking, Chiba Kaede felt that its strength was no less than that of Cynthia's Garchomp.

It makes sense, considering that Giovanni, who was able to dominate the Kanto and Johto regions, must have Pokémon whose strength, even if not as great as the Champion's, was still at the same level.

At this moment, Chiba Maple only had Diancie and Shaymin left to use, but they were also tied down by Moltres and Darkrai and were temporarily unable to rescue him.

Although Chiba Kaede possesses a certain level of combat ability, compared to an opponent of Nidoking's caliber, he is still far from being a match.

"Nidoking, power of the earth!"

Sakaki noticed Chiba's predicament and simply gave the order.

Upon receiving the command, Nidoking stopped in its tracks, merely lifting its right leg and lightly placing it on the ground. Immediately afterward, an invisible wave swept towards the area where Chiba Kaede was located the moment it stepped down.

Before Chiba Kaede could even react, he felt as if he had been hit in the chest by a heavy hammer, and then he was sent flying backward.

In mid-air, Chiba Kaede felt a tickle in his throat, followed by a spurt of scarlet blood from his mouth.

After rolling several times on the ground, Chiba Kaede slammed heavily onto a protruding rock, finally bringing him to a stop.

After checking his condition, Chiba Kaede realized that he would feel excruciating pain whenever he made any large movements, clearly indicating that Nidoking's attack had broken many of his bones.

Without much hesitation, Chiba Kaede used his ability to heal his injuries. In order to conceal the emerald green light emitted during the healing process, Chiba Kaede carefully controlled his life energy to prevent it from dissipating from his body.

In Giovanni's mind, Chiba Kaede had already been severely injured by Nidoking's attack and was no longer a concern. So he turned his attention to the four legendary Pokémon that were still fighting.

Especially when he looked at Diancie and Shaymin, there was a hint of greed in Giovanni's eyes. He hadn't expected to be able to capture two legendary Pokémon at once here. Such an opportunity was very rare.

Giovanni believed that as long as he could control enough legendary Pokémon, the Pokémon League would be completely helpless against him and would be constantly under his threat, living in constant fear.

As for Chiba Kaede, who was lying on the ground not far away, his life hanging in the balance, he was already a dead man in Sakaki's eyes. If it weren't for the need to keep him alive to force Diancie and Shaymi to submit, he would have had Nidoran bury him alive long ago.

Meanwhile, Chiba Kaede's injuries had also healed under the influence of life energy. He maintained his previous posture and began to secretly plot how to break the deadlock.

After much thought, Chiba Kaede still couldn't figure out where his chance of winning lay. He couldn't even escape the attack of that Nidoking on his own.

The only variable is that he can only hope for support from the Hoenn League. Only with the intervention of external forces can he possibly turn the tide.

Actually, when Chiba was attacked by Nidoking, Diancie and Shaymin had already tried to come to his rescue through telepathy, but he refused.

In order to mislead Giovanni and make him lower his guard, Chiba Kaede decided to take Nidoking's attack head-on.

"Compare!"

Suddenly, Chiba Kaede felt as if she heard Celebi's voice in a daze.

"Is that you, Shramana?"

Chiba Kaede did not speak, but asked in his mind.

Because Chiba Kaede felt that besides Diancie and Shaymi, there was another being connected to her heart.

"Yes, I already know what happened here, so I just infiltrated that aircraft and hypnotized everyone inside!"

Celebi's clear voice rang in Chiba Kaede's mind.

The reason why the ghusbah was able to arrive so quickly is that it traveled to a point in the future during one of its time travels.

At that point in time, Chiba Farm had become a desolate wasteland overgrown with weeds.

This place has once again become a wilderness, inhabited by many wild elves, but the people and elves it knew are nowhere to be found.

Upon witnessing this scene, Silavi was deeply saddened and secretly conducted an investigation, finally figuring out what had happened.

In this timeline, Chiba Farm was invaded by Team Rocket, and all the Pokémon were taken away by Team Rocket. Chiba Kaede, the farm owner, was confirmed to have died in the invasion.

After obtaining accurate information, Celebi, having accumulated enough energy to travel through time, traveled back to the day of Team Rocket's invasion, just in time to witness Chiba being knocked away by Giovanni's Nidoking.

Fortunately, it could sense that Chiba Maple still had a vibrant life force, so it did not reveal itself directly, but instead stealthily entered the interior of the large aircraft floating in the sky.

Furthermore, Celebi directly used hypnosis to put everyone and every spirit inside the aircraft to sleep.

With powerful trainers like Giovanni and Mako gone, the other crew members inside the aircraft were unable to resist Celebi's hypnosis and all fell asleep.

"Thank you so much, shrub!"

After listening to Celebi's account of the future in that timeline, Chiba Kaede felt a chill run down his spine. He hadn't expected that he would ultimately be defeated by Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket.

The price of his failure was his own life, and all the spirits he had subdued were taken away by Giovanni and disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, Chiba Kaede felt extremely grateful to Celebi. If it hadn't come today, the outcome would most likely have been like this.

"Don't mention it, we're good friends!"

Celebi was a little embarrassed by Chiba Kaede's thanks, but you could still tell from its tone that it was happy.

With Celebi as a hidden trump card, Chiba Kaede's confidence immediately increased. Unless Giovanni could send out another legendary Pokémon, the scales of victory had already tipped in his favor.

At this moment, Giovanni was commanding his Nidoking and Darkrai to attack Shaymin from both sides, putting Shaymin at a disadvantage and causing him to suffer damage from time to time.

If this trend continues, Shaymi will be defeated soon. Once they are free to attack Diancie, Chiba's situation will collapse.

"Hiss!"

Just then, the Overlord King Yan, who had been trapped in the nightmare of Dalai, finally awoke through sheer willpower. (End of Chapter)
