Elf: I Am a Farmer

Chapter 57 Subjugation

When Chiba Kaede arrived in the backyard, Arm Strength was still doing its previous training, and the Moo Moo Milk that he had placed next to it had not been drunk by it.

"You can't train your wrist strength like this. Besides ruining your body, you won't improve your strength much."

Chiba Kaede said to the person who was ignoring his wrist strength.

Wanli merely glanced at him before continuing his training as before, seemingly unaffected by Chiba Kaede's words.

Chiba Kaede's statement was not without basis. For a Pokémon like Machop, whose entire body is made of muscles, push-ups are too inefficient for training. It takes a lot of time to reach its physical limit.

Moreover, this limit will become higher and higher over time, which means that wrist strength will need to spend more time to reach the new limit.

Although arm strength will improve to some extent during this process, the improvement is negligible compared to the time invested.

Not to mention that wrist strength is not a perpetual motion machine. It is currently being trained without any restraint, and over time, it will definitely accumulate a lot of hidden injuries in the body.

The longer time goes by, the more serious these hidden injuries will become, and eventually the strength of the wrist may stagnate or even regress.

In layman's terms, arm wrestling now comes at the cost of overdrawing one's future potential in exchange for a meager improvement in strength.

If a gauntlet lives in the wild, to improve its strength, it will seek out a rumblebee and repeatedly move it up and down to train its muscles, striving to reach a higher level. If it cannot find a rumblebee, it will find stones of appropriate weight to train with. ♞♢ 69ѕн𝔲x.𝐜о𝐦 ☢🐊

However, this method is not feasible for Wrist Strength, who only has one hand left.

"Follow me, and I can help you improve your strength more efficiently. Otherwise, with your current training methods, you will never be able to protect the people you cherish."

"wrist!"

When it heard Chiba Kaede say that it was unable to protect the people it cherished with its strength, Arm Grip finally showed an angry expression and roared at Chiba Kaede.

"It's no use getting angry. Deep down you know what I'm saying is true, but you just can't accept it. I still hope you can give yourself a chance, a chance to prove your abilities."

Ignoring the arm that had already stood up and was glaring angrily at him, Chiba Kaede continued speaking.

"Wrist, wrist!"

With a bent-knee posture, Wanli called out to Chiba Kaede a few times.

"Do you want to fight my spirit?"

Looking at the arm-like creature in front of him, which was assuming a fighting stance, Chiba Kaede seemed to understand what it wanted to do.

"wrist!"

Wanli glared at Chiba Kaede, then nodded.

"I see, I understand. Go then, Heracross!"

Chiba Kaede immediately summoned Heracross. What he needed to do now was to completely overwhelm Machope with absolute power, only in this way could he change Machope's mind.

"Heracross, you can only use your left hand in this match, understand?"

Chiba Kaede said to Heracross.

"Hera!"

Heracross, looking at its little brother who only had one hand, nodded understandingly. It still valued martial ethics and wouldn't take advantage of its disabled brother. ♟☹ ❻9丂𝐡ยx.ςỖⓜ 🍮🎈

However, the wrist didn't appreciate it. It felt that the human in front of it was looking down on its one-armed wrist and that it was not worthy of the other party using its full strength. So the anger in its heart burned even more fiercely, as if it wanted to burn it to ashes.

"Is this... anger?"

Seeing that the arm wrestler in front of him was red with anger and his whole body was glowing red, Chiba Kaede was also a little confused.

Seeing that the insect opposite him didn't make a move but just looked at him with a look of regret in its eyes, Wrist Power angrily rushed over, then formed a blade with his left hand and used all his strength to slash at Heracross.

Seeing this, Heracross got into position and used his left hand to block Wrist's attack. Then, he grabbed Wrist's arm and swung it backward, giving Wrist a solid over-the-shoulder throw.

Although he was thrown down, Machope immediately got up and continued to attack Heracross, only to be thrown down again. This process continued for a long time until Machope exhausted all his strength and could no longer stand up.

After the final fall, even Heracross was somewhat impressed by the arm strength before him, his eyes revealing admiration, completely devoid of his previous contempt.

"The battle is over. So, Arm Strength, how about you come with me? I can train you to be as strong as Heracross, or even stronger?"

Chiba Kaede approached Arm Riki, who was still struggling to stand up, and said...

Looking at the outstretched hand, the wrist was caught in a dilemma. It didn't know what to do for a moment, and instinctively felt that it should follow the human in front of it so that it could become stronger.

But deep down, it still can't forget the trainer who abandoned it, and it wants to regain his approval once it becomes stronger.

"How about this, Arm Strength, you can stay with me for now. I'll try my best to help you improve your strength. If you want to leave later, I won't stop you. What do you think?"

Chiba Kaede said with a smile.

He also saw that Machop's dilemma was simply because he couldn't forget his former trainer.

However, Chiba Kaede didn't believe that Machop would run back to the trainer who abandoned it, despite her sincere efforts.

"wrist!"

After hesitating for a long time, Wanli finally made up its mind, extended its left hand and shook hands with Chiba Kaede's hand. Of course, because it was afraid of hurting Chiba Kaede, it did not use any force.

"Alright, go, Poké Ball!"

After obtaining Machop's consent, Chiba Kaede took out the Poké Ball he had prepared beforehand and captured Machop inside.

Just like when Naki caught Duckling, the Poké Ball went out without even shaking, which means that Chiba Kaede has caught Machop.

"Arm strength, please guide me from now on!"

After confirming that Machop had been captured, Chiba Kaede released it from the Poké Ball, patted it on the shoulder, and said...

"wrist!"

After being healed by Chiba Maple's ability, Wanli involuntarily let out a comfortable cry. It felt as if a huge boulder had been lifted from its body, and its whole body felt refreshed.

Chiba Kaede found a secluded spot and used his abilities to heal Arm Strength. He had hoped that his life energy could regenerate Arm Strength's arm, but unfortunately, he ultimately failed.

Life energy can only heal the hidden injuries accumulated from wrist strength and the injuries sustained in the recent battle; it cannot regenerate severed limbs.

At this moment, Machop was unaware of Chiba Maple's regret. It had great confidence in its new trainer's abilities and knew that he had not deceived it.

This treatment alone made Wanli feel a huge change in his body.

The stiffness in my arms caused by overtraining has disappeared. I stretched out my wrist and clenched my fist, and it felt very smooth, without any of the previous feeling of blockage.

"Wrist Strength, you've just received my treatment and need to replenish your energy. Here, have some of this!"

Chiba Kaede took out some energy cubes and a bottle of Moo Moo Milk from her backpack and handed them to Arm Strength.

This time, Wanli did not refuse Chiba Kaede's kindness. He first grabbed the energy cubes, then stuffed them all into his mouth, and then picked up the Moo Moo Milk and drank it down in a "glug glug glug" manner. In no time, he had finished eating everything.

"Eat slowly, don't rush!"

Seeing Wanli's unrestrained eating manner, Chiba Kaede hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

He knew that this was probably a habit that his wrist strength had developed in order to save time training his body, and he could only correct it slowly over time.

After Machop was full, Chiba Kaede put it back in its Poké Ball and let it rest for a while. He could tell that Machop hadn't had a proper rest in a long time, or rather, it hadn't had a very long rest period.

"I can't believe you actually did it, Xiaofeng!"

Professor Birch was quite shocked to learn that Chiba had caught Machop, since many of the trainers he had recommended had tried but failed.

"Maybe we just clicked!"

Chiba Kaede responded with a smile.

"Perhaps that's true; the bond between elves and humans has always been a fascinating topic!"

Dr. Oda Birch suddenly became philosophical.
