Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Put away the Queen Bee.

Sailors dressed in neat white short-sleeved shirts and white hats, along with trainers rushing out in a panic, also saw the scene before them.

The sky was filled with countless sharp-toothed fish and megalodon.

The sailors reacted the fastest and were the most experienced, throwing out Poké Balls to summon Pokémon to fight against the sharp-toothed fish and megalodon.

Meanwhile, some trainers who were confident in their abilities also summoned their own Pokémon.

However, at this moment, Natsuhiko, who was holding Togepi and accompanied by Miu, and the Megalodon lying on the ground not far away, undoubtedly caught the attention of the sailors and trainers.

The entire elven attack lasted only a few dozen seconds.

The sailors reacted quickly enough, but could anyone defeat a veteran megalodon in such a short time?

This is somewhat surprising.

Xia Yan ignored the respectful, doubtful, and skeptical gazes, simply throwing out an empty Poké Ball to capture the Megalodon lying on the ground.

This is his spoils of war.

This scene also caught the eye of Gelwin, who had rushed over.

She was also watching the game at the venue.

After giving Xia Yan a deep look as he retreated, he turned around and summoned his Pokémon to join the battle against the Sharptooth Fish and Megalodon.

Xia Yan led Mei Yu and the old man with a somewhat complicated expression back to the hall.

"Don't worry, this is a minor incident. The sailors can handle it."

If even this situation can't be resolved, then Xia Yan thinks he should leave the St. Anne's as soon as possible.

Miyu was still somewhat shaken; the Megalodon's ferocious appearance had a significant impact on her young mind.

Xia Yan handed Mei Yu to the old man, saying, "She must have been a little frightened. Go back and get some rest."

The old man's expression was complicated, but he still said gratefully, "Thank you, sir."

He understood that if Xia Yan hadn't reacted quickly enough, Mei Yu might have been more than just frightened.

He waved goodbye and walked towards the stairs alone.

Once out of their sight, Xia Yan's expression immediately darkened.

"Without any warning, this is definitely not a normal wild elf attack..."

Chapter Eleven: Wrong Set?

Wild Pokémon, especially some powerful ones, have a strong sense of territory, which is most evident among Pokémon that live in groups.

If a creature approaches or even enters the territory of the tribe and can be perceived as a threat, the territory elf will first issue a warning, causing the approaching creature to retreat on its own or wait to face a strong counterattack from the tribe's elves.

If there is no threat, the territorial elf may not react so strongly.

Just as an elf's territory cannot contain only one elf, a race also has basic food needs and will not drive away creatures that they see as harmless or even as food reserves.

And ferocious creatures like the Megalodon, at the top of the ocean food chain, are especially territorial.

It is not surprising that they would attack any creature or thing that enters their territory and makes them feel threatened or violated.

just.

Would the captains of the St. Anne, with their rich experience in sea navigation, not know to avoid the territory of some ferocious elves?

Even if they have to get close, they will definitely be prepared.

The truth is, the sailors who arrived on deck a few dozen seconds late were not prepared for the attack by the megalodons.

Furthermore, Xia Yan, who was standing by the railing at the time, did not see any phenomena such as shark fins or abnormal water flow.

It was as if a group of megalodon and sharp-toothed fish approached the St. Anne from deep water, locked onto its target, and launched a direct attack.

of course.

This also does not rule out the possibility that the attack was caused by a combination of coincidences.

Having experienced the Zapdos incident, the Tom Nook incident, and so many "coincidences," Xia Yan has a strong aversion to the word "coincidence."

Back in his room, Xia Yan quickly treated Beedrill's injuries.

Although Megalodon did not attack Beedrill, its rough skin still caused some damage to the Beedrill when it attacked at close range.

"Although I found the attack a bit strange, the appearance of this megalodon was just right."

After treating Beedrill's wounds, Xia Yan sat in a chair, looking at the Sharpedo in its Poké Ball, which was still unconscious.

Sailing at sea without a water-type spirit to protect you can make you feel a little uneasy.

The appearance of this megalodon has solved this problem to some extent.

"There's no need to train it as a main battle Pokémon. This Sharpedo is strong now, but its potential and talent are pretty much set."

My fingertips rubbed the surface of the Poké Ball.

"But if it is only used as a waterway 'tool' for sea navigation, it is more than enough. Although the rough skin is troublesome, it is not insurmountable."

"Moreover, we might be able to get some answers from this megalodon and find out why they attacked the St. Anne."

"Or to be more precise, is it an attack launched against a person or an entity?"

Xia Yan's eyes flickered as he weighed the pros and cons of subduing the Megalodon.

Currently, besides Beedrill, Abra, and Togepi, which he is fully committed to training, Pidgeotto, Ditto, and Shuckle are mostly used as "tools".

Xia Yan himself has limited resources.

While we won't mistreat these Pokémon, we won't invest much in them either.

He also told these elves that once they had fulfilled their duties or Xia Yan had found a better replacement, he would give them a choice.

Whether you give them their freedom or let them stay, Xia Yan will ensure that they will never have to worry about food again.

"Give it a try, if this megalodon knows what's good for it."

Knock knock.

Just as I put away the Sharpedo Poké Ball, there was a knock on the door.

Xia Yan frowned.

"Who?"

"it's me."

A woman's voice came from outside the door.

It was Gerwin, who lived next door.

Xia Yan hesitated for a moment, then put away several Pokémon, leaving only Togepi, and opened the door.

Standing outside the door, wearing his blue sweater, Gerwin looked somewhat tired.

"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Gelwin raised an eyebrow as he looked at Xia Yan, who was blocking the doorway.

Seeing that Xia Yan remained unmoved, Gerwin looked helpless.

After letting out a soft sigh, she said, "What if I wanted to talk about pirates, or even this Megalodon attack?"

Xia Yan looked at her, scanned her up and down a few times, and finally stepped aside to give her his seat.

Gerwin went inside, and Xia Yan looked at the empty corridor and closed the door.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect a guy like you to be so clean," Gelwin said, clicking his tongue.

"Go ahead."

Gerwin pursed his lips, finding it utterly uninteresting.

However, after a slight hesitation, she said, "Actually... I am a pirate."

pirate?

Looking at Xia Yan, who remained expressionless, Gerwin asked with some surprise, "Aren't you surprised?"

Actually, Xia Yan had some guesses about Gelwin's identity.

From the moment she appeared, she said that Miyu and the old man were not grandfather and granddaughter, to Pokobi swatting away Natsuhiko's attempt to shake hands with her.

However, the fact that the other party was a pirate was somewhat beyond Xia Yan's expectations.

"Aren't you afraid I'll tell the boatswain and the others?"

"Can you?" Gerwin winked at Xia Yan.

That depends on whether you have a bounty on your head.

Xia Yan muttered to himself.

However, the fact that the other party was able to board the "St. Anne" unharmed and participate in the competitions held on board with impunity shows that they are fearless.

"So, what is your purpose?"

Upon hearing Xia Yan's question, Gerwin smiled, a very happy smile.

Revealing her identity was also a way for her to test Xia Yan.

If Xia Yan is a loyal supporter of the alliance, then they should be on the verge of conflict at this point.

But as it turned out, she was right. Even if Xia Yan wasn't a member of any organization, he was still a "neutral person."

She stretched lazily, revealing her curves that had been hidden by the oversized blue sweater.

Xia Yan subtly shifted his gaze away.

Seeing Xia Yan's performance, Gerwin smiled even more happily.

“If you don’t tell me, I don’t mind letting the boatswain or even the captain and first mate know who you are.” Xia Yan said with a straight face in the face of Gelwin’s teasing gaze.

"Alright, alright, I surrender. Actually, my purpose in coming here is very simple: I want to invite you to join us." Gelwin's joking expression disappeared.

"you?"

“You should have heard of our captain, ‘Enchanting Star’ Binena.”

Isn't this the pirate ranked sixth on the Alliance bounty list that Xia Yan saw not long ago?
