Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

“Lord Liu Botian, I didn’t expect you to be here too. Now the matter of Baiyang Town makes sense.”

Suddenly.

Kikuno found Uncle Liu and Natsuhiko "hiding" in the garden and walked over with a smile.

"Kikuno."

Upon seeing the newcomer, Uncle Liu's smile vanished.

Kikuno glanced at Natsuhiko standing next to Liu Bo, then smiled at Liu Bo and said, "Let me push you to rest. We Sinnoh will definitely express our gratitude to Kanto."

"Ah."

Uncle Liu responded indifferently.

"Xia Yan, I'm a bit busy right now. I'll send someone to find you later; I have some questions for you," Kikuno said to Xia Yan again.

Xia Yan simply nodded silently.

Watching the two figures gradually disappear into the distance.

Put on your hat.

I pressed it down a bit.

The dark brim of his hat obscured his vision.

A bitter expression crossed his face.

He muttered to himself, "Teacher, others have wronged you, but do you really not lie?"

Actually, through guessing, he understood the reason to some extent.

It's no surprise that Liu Bo's connection with Chi Ri has put him in a very precarious situation.

With Liu Bo betraying them at the last minute, Chi Ri is very likely to reveal the details of their communication.

Although Uncle Liu has stepped down as one of the Four Heavenly Kings, Xia Yan still learned the reason for Uncle Liu's resignation from Kikuko's words.

Rather than his age and lack of strength, it was his stubborn nature that led to his defeat in the struggle.

This incident will undoubtedly drag him into unnecessary trouble once again.

and.

It was still quite a commotion.

He sighed silently, "They're all so obsessed with saving face."

Chapter 285 Acting Heavenly King?

"Arzetus is calling me?"

Looking at the gods of the lake before him and hearing their words, Xia Yan subconsciously shrank his neck.

My first thought was that Arceus had found out about what he and Giratina had discussed, so he wanted to have a serious "talk" with him.

After Team Galactic was wiped out in Ashford, the three little guys from the Lake Gods recovered.

Xia Yan didn't ask how they were captured, lest it provoke a bad reaction from them and cause them to feel disgusted.

Apart from Arknom, Ukish and Emredo are not in good condition either.

It is estimated that they will be more careful to stay in their respective lake spaces in the future, and will not reappear except for a few truly worthy individuals.

As the three gods created by Arceus, these three little guys, endowed with will, wisdom, and emotions, have much better tempers than the three rebellious Giratina.

Therefore, to some extent, they can also be seen as Arceus's representatives in Sinnoh.

"Here you go~~"

Arknom surrounded Xia Yan.

It is also the one with the best relationship with Xia Yan among the three little guys.

Follow its gaze.

Xia Yan looked towards the towering Tianguan Mountain to the east.

"The summit of Tianguan Mountain?"

Arknom nodded repeatedly.

"I understand. I'll go see it after this is over."

Xia Yan decided to use delaying tactics.

Let's postpone it until things calm down before going to see Arceus. By then, the shrine might be fully completed, and he'll at least have something to show for himself.

"Here you go~~"

It has been confirmed that Xia Yan has received the message.

The three little creatures didn't linger any longer. Noticing someone approaching, they wagged their tails and slowly disappeared.

Xia Yan could sense that they had left.

"Xia Yan, who are you talking to?"

Wataru and Cynthia walked over.

They had briefly explained the situation to the arriving Allied forces and then immediately found Xia Yan.

Xia Yan gently stroked the sleeping Ice Vulpix in his arms.

"No, how is it?"

Cynthia's coat was already tattered, and she was wearing a black bodysuit with her long blonde hair hanging down to her chest. Instead of covering her up, the contrasting colors of gold and black accentuated her assets.

Although Cynthia may not seem to have much of a figure when she's wearing a coat, it seems she's actually quite well-endowed.

"Fortunately, the damage was not too great. Dialga and Palkia eventually repaired Poplar Town, and apart from the residents being a little frightened, there were basically no injuries."

Cynthia tightened her grip on her arm.

Xia Yan lowered his eyes.

He took off his coat and draped the black blazer over her shoulders.

He looked at the busy Alliance members.

"Fortunately, it was saved."

He said with a touch of emotion.

Feeling the lingering warmth on her clothes, Cynthia's pretty face flushed slightly.

He nodded and said:

"Kikuno Tenno said that after she finishes assigning tasks here, she will take us away first, as the president wants to talk to us."

"President?" Xia Yan raised an eyebrow.

Xia Yan had only heard rumors about this Sinnoh League president and had never met him in person.

He had the most contact with Kikuno, one of the Four Heavenly Kings who managed the dojo.

"He probably wants to ask about Giratina and the others, and also about Hoshino Ryuichi."

Ryuichi Hoshino?

Xia Yan adjusted his hat. "I understand."

He scratched his head and looked at Du.

Wataru's gaze kept sweeping over Natsuhiko and Cynthia.

She was slightly taken aback when her eyes met Xia Yan's.

He shrugged and said, "I'm going back to Kanto."

"Aren't you going to investigate anymore?"

The main purpose of coming to Sinnoh was to investigate the hunter Natsuhiko.

"No way. But this incident also involves Kanto, so I need to go back and report it."

Although he didn't say it clearly, they all knew he was referring to Uncle Liu's matter.

Liu Bo single-handedly stopped Dialga and Palkia, making him an absolute savior to the residents of Poplar Town.

However, his relationship with Chi Ri could very well become the target of attacks by those with ulterior motives.

Watari wanted to go back and use his connections to minimize the possibility of this happening.

Xia Yan didn't say anything, but patted his shoulder heavily.

Du understood what he meant.

He then solemnly said, "Don't worry, some things are obvious to everyone."

He then smiled and said, "Of course, I will resolve this matter quickly and then return to continue my investigation. I will definitely arrest this hunter!"

Xia Yan's eye twitched.

He suddenly understood how those who were being targeted by Wataru felt.

"Hey, you should go back now."

Sinnoh League Headquarters Building.

On the benches in the corridor.

Xia Yan, wearing a black shirt, and Xi Lunna, wearing an ill-fitting coat, sat here.

Waiting for the meeting of the alliance president to end.

Xia Yan held the little six-tailed fox in his arms.

They didn't just sit there and wait.

You can see that the little six-tailed cat lying on his lap has its mouth slightly open, and a ball of light blue ice crystal is hovering in front of it.

As the little six-tailed creature's tail bobbed back and forth, it carefully controlled its ice-type energy.

Each breath of white mist was absorbed by the blue ice crystals in front of him.
