Even Sinnoh champions have to work hard.

As the light faded, Mewtwo, standing on the deck, revealed its true form.

"This, this, this..." Giovanni's feelings were quite complicated. He had an indescribable feeling about Mewtwo's current appearance, and his jaw almost dropped in surprise.

"Migu..." Even Mewtwo, who was usually calm and playful, couldn't help but show an extremely strange look in its eyes, staring at Mewtwo with wide eyes, finding it hard to describe.

What did it look like...?

The oversized white trench coat looks very stylish, but the style seems a bit familiar. However, I won't dwell on it because it looks so good.

The white shirt mixed with purple accentuated her beautiful curves. Although her chest was only slightly bulging and looked a bit thin, it didn't matter; she was still young and could develop further.

The super short shorts paired with her beautiful, fair, long legs exude an undeniable aura of a mature woman, making one want to lick the screen, to the point that one's phone crashes from licking so much, leaving one breathless with excitement.

Her long purple hair flowed gracefully in the sea breeze, giving her a very elegant look. Her side-swept bangs were blown up by the wind, otherwise they might have covered her eyes, but even with her eyes covered, she was still very beautiful.

Of course, none of the above are the key issues.

The key is that face.

Familiarity can be terrifying.

Beautiful peach blossom eyes, long eyelashes that seem to electrify when they blink, captivating the eye; thin cherry lips with a touch of pink that makes you want to kiss them; this face makes you feel like—one person.

Someone who was just showing off here a moment ago.

A guy who was just here beating up Mewtwo.

A person who was just here, hugging a Ho-Oh and showing off their love.

Kazama Shirasumi!

That's right!

Both Sakaki and Mew can testify to this.

Mewtwo's current form is exactly like a female version of Kazama Shiromo with long purple hair.

There are some subtle differences. She has a female figure with long, flowing purple hair, and her features are less heroic and more gentle.

But none of this can hide the fact that this face is Kazama Shiramo!

If you just put on a wig, change your clothes, put on some light makeup, and fake your height, you'll look exactly like Mewtwo now!

"What's wrong with you two?" Mewtwo looked at the surprised Mew and Giovanni with some confusion, and the two fell into an enigmatic silence.

"Migu, meow." (It's nothing, I think I can understand your determination.)

Mewtwo wagged its tail and circled around Mewtwo twice: "Meow meow, meow!" (Stay here, good luck!)

Mew teleported into the sky, taking with it a host of cloned Pokémon, and flew away from the sea, leaving Mewtwo looking at Giovanni with some confusion.

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"No, it's nothing." Sakaki's lips twitched, feeling a strange mix of emotions—like a daughter who's grown up and ready to get married, but also wanting to kill her future son-in-law. He didn't know what to say.

"Sakaki."

"Huh?" Giovanni was momentarily stunned. This was the first time Mewtwo had called him by his name. In the past, Mewtwo had only ever addressed him as "you" or "human."

"Thank you." The voice was soft, but it definitely reached Sakaki's ears.

Sakaki laughed, though it was out of happiness, but because of his gloomy face, even this happy smile looked like a terrifying, sinister laugh.

"Can I ask you for a favor?" Mewtwo stared intently at Giovanni. "I know it's unreasonable, but I still want to ask you for a favor."

"Oh, what do you want to ask me for?"

"Please help me become stronger!" Mewtwo's eyes shone with determination: "You are the one who created me, you must know the fastest way to make me stronger. I want to become stronger, and then..."

Mewtwo looked up at the spot where he had disappeared: "Defeat him with my own hands!"

"It'll be really hard to beat him." Giovanni chuckled. "He's probably one of the strongest Pokémon trainers in the world. Beating him..."

Looking at Mewtwo's heroic figure, Giovanni sighed, "You need to work harder!"

P.S. About Mewtwo being turned into a female character, aren't you surprised?! I've finally filled a plot hole I've been thinking about for so long, haha, it feels so great!

P.S. I'd like to recommend a guy's book, "Your Anime World Is Really Deep," which tells the story of someone who knows nothing about anime struggling in an infinite space.

Chapter 104 The Last Night

Did not go home.

Yes, logically speaking, the matter is resolved, and he should go home.

But he didn't. Yes, he didn't want to go home. Kazama Shiro, holding Ho-Oh, knew it was wrong, but every man has moments when he wants to make mistakes.

So he brought Ho-Oh to the lakeside in the center of the Tokiwa Monastery. The scenery was beautiful, and the person in his arms was even more beautiful.

"Where should I take you now?" Kazama Shiro gently stroked Ho-Oh's pale face, his expression so tender it seemed to melt water. "The Pokémon Center can't heal you, right? Should I take you back to the Bell Tower Temple right away?"

"No." Ho-Oh gently drew circles on Kazama Shiro's chest with its little finger: "I was just a little exhausted when I saved Ash. I wasn't injured when I battled Mew. I just need to go back to Bell Tower and get some sleep. Stay with me while I get back."

"Okay." Kazama Shiromo responded to Phoenix King, leaning down to gently kiss Phoenix King's red lips.

In the very heart of the Viridian Forest, a beautiful man and woman were passionately kissing. The kings of the Viridian Forest stood quietly around them, watching the couple flaunt their love by the lake. Although it was impossible for them to be without mates, they still felt a strange sense of hurt watching this scene.

"Are we just going to watch like this?" Gyarados, which had sprung out from the other side of the lake, looked at the timid Pokémon and flicked its tail in confusion.

"What else can we do but watch? Should I go and burn them down? This isn't the way to court death! That man is Flygon's trainer! Have you forgotten the scent of the woman in her arms? That's Ho-Oh!" Lying in the grass, Ninetales glared at the silly Gyarados. As an Elite Four-level Ninetales who had been single for millennia, she was actually the most capable of witnessing public displays of affection, but she was also the most clear-headed. It was best to just watch from the sidelines and play the role of a background character.

"I'd risk my life to bother these two gentlemen! What I mean is, shouldn't we create something to make them happy? The sooner they're done having fun, the sooner they can leave." Gyarados, despite its fierce appearance, was surprisingly a very good-tempered old man, the kind who was also incredibly timid.

"You mean to create some romance?" Nidoking, whose wife was right next to him, was clearly an expert: "I know a lot about this!"

"I can handle that too, I'm very good at it." The one who said this was a king-level blazing horse. From the perspective of blazing horses, it was undoubtedly the most handsome kind of blazing horse. It was a true stallion, having roamed the racetrack without ever failing. It had slept with more mares than you had ever seen. It could be said to be a true king of love!

"I have a bold idea!" Butterfree swayed its beautiful wings and looked around at the many Pokémon present. As the only Elite Four member in the entire Viridian Forest, Butterfree could do many things.

"I have a suggestion for your bold idea!" Rapidash and Butterfree exchanged a knowing smile.

……

Phoenix King and Kazama Shiro, still nestled together by the lake, watched as sparks shimmered on the lake's surface. Beautiful sparks arranged precisely into a heart shape on the lake's surface. Just by looking at it, one could tell that this was a masterpiece. The sparks were small but not scattered; such a feat could not be accomplished without precise control over the flames.

Rows of beautiful butterfly butterflies fluttered gracefully, forming a lovely heart shape around their edges as they danced in the sky, mesmerizing all who saw them. A closer look revealed that these butterfly butterflies were guided by a sweet fragrance, making their flight quite fascinating.

The Gyarados, lurking in the lake, gently opened its mouth, and the bubble light gently rose upwards, slowly floating to the surface. The extremely weak bubble light was not dispersed by the sparks, but instead slowly merged with the sparks, forming a light mist that gradually dissipated.

Sunny day!

The dazzling light and the hazy mist combined to create a beautiful rainbow on the lake's surface.

"This..." Kazama Shiro looked at the beautiful gold in front of him with some confusion. To be honest, he really didn't expect this situation to occur.

"It must have been those kids who did it," Ho-Oh chuckled, covering her mouth. Given her status and age, she certainly had the right to call those Pokémon "kids." "That was wonderful. This date was great."

"Are you happy?" Kazama Shiromo gently brushed aside Phoenix's bangs and kissed her smooth, beautiful forehead, like the most intimate lover.

"I'm so happy, it reminds me of our first date." Feng Wang gently cupped Kazama Shiro's face in his hands: "You know what we should do after a date, right?"

Ho-Oh's red lips breathed out warm air, igniting Kazama Shiro's restless emotions: "Tokiwa City is right next door, let's go to the place where we had our first time that night."

……

The night passed.

Kazama Shiramo, sitting on the bed in the love hotel, still seemed somewhat lost and melancholy.

Phoenix King is gone. After a wonderful night, Phoenix King has already left. She must return to the Bell Tower.

Last night, Phoenix King was unusually gentle, no longer making those crazy, exploitative moves he used to make on Kazama Shiromo. Instead, he lay gently on the bed, completely embracing her.

She was unusually gentle last night.

Phoenix King lying shyly in bed is so adorable.

Her gentle demeanor is so beautiful.

Kazama Shiromo never imagined that the Phoenix King could be so gentle, even holding his hand tightly as he was about to depart.

She was wild like a flame before, but last night she was as gentle as water.

Gentleness, tolerance, love, and desire intertwined, causing Kazama Shiromo to empty himself out.

like……

I'm addicted...

Kazama Shiramo splashed cold water on his face to clear his head, got dressed, and walked out of the hotel alone, much to the surprise of the receptionist.

One of the luxurious orbs at his waist was empty; it was left behind by the departed Ho-Oh.

I looked up at the sky, hoping to see her shadow.

However, it can no longer be found.

Phoenix King has already left; she left long ago and doesn't even want to see her shadow again.

Kazama Shiromo shook his head self-deprecatingly. During the time when the Phoenix Queen was around, he was always afraid that his body couldn't handle it, but after she left, he couldn't help but miss her...

"What am I worried about! I can just go to the Bell Tower to find her later." Kazama Shiromo calmed himself down and gave a wry smile. There would always be a time when they would meet again. He hoped that day wouldn't be too far away.

P.S. I'd like to recommend my friend's book, "Asagami Fujino's Theory of Happiness."

What is your wish?

An equivalent exchange: I will help you fulfill your wish by giving you something of equal value, whenever you wish, just by calling upon it.

Kirito, designated as the "Collector of the Mystic Eyes" and sealed away, arrives in Kanbuko City after a special incident. He originally thought he would live an ordinary life in this city, until his future vision led him to meet a girl named Asagami Fujino...

“Equivalent exchange, Mr. Kiriya, isn’t that your principle?”

The girl smiled.

"I'm entrusting Asagami Fujino to you—in return, please entrust Kiriya to me as well."
