After being cleaned, all the children, big and small, lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.
Natsuno lay on the bed reserved for her, tucking the blankets in one by one. Although she was a little tired, she still couldn't fall asleep.
In the middle of the night, I picked up my phone, dimmed the brightness, and secretly sent a message to the blonde beauty.
"Zhulan-chan, I'm having trouble sleeping without you here. How strange of me."
Unexpectedly, I received a reply from Zhulan a few minutes later.
Me too, I never feel like I can sleep soundly without a large Ono body pillow next to me.
The two chatted for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, they said goodnight to each other again.
This time, I was able to get some rest.
The next morning, the Natsuno family was awakened by knocking on the door.
"Natsuno, get up and become a gym leader!"
The wicked researcher, lost in his dream, was instantly jolted awake: "What the hell?"
A tree outside the door said anxiously, "Oh dear, let's not talk about that anymore. There are too many challengers. You can only help for two or three days!"
Once he was sure he wasn't dreaming, Natsuno got up, and then the whole family got up too.
Except for one that can't open its mouth and one whose mouth is constantly submerged in cell fluid, everyone else needs to have their teeth brushed.
The noise from the lobby downstairs could be faintly heard from the restaurant. Natsuno quickly finished his breakfast and went to the dojo lobby.
Since Kazuki has temporarily taken over the affairs of the Kikyo Gym, Natsuno and the others are also staying at the gym.
The hall was bustling with noise, and all the battlefields were packed with people, as were large groups of spectators.
Natsuno arrived at the center of the arena, where Ichiki was testing the challenger.
A dojo apprentice ran over and looked at Natsuno, whose appearance was unremarkable after being disguised: "Um, hello sir."
"Due to the disappearance of Gym Leader Aso yesterday, and the recent travels of many newcomers, the Kikyo Gym has seen a lot of challengers."
"Elite Four member said you are also a very capable trainer, qualified to be a Gym Leader. Please help me, I beg you!"
Seeing that the dojo apprentices were all bowing at a perfect 90-degree angle, Natsuno's lips curled up in a smile.
You've already said I'm very capable, so what else is there to say? Let's go!
"No problem. I'm more than capable of being a cricket gym leader. Leave it to me!"
Following the somewhat apprehensive apprentice to the battlefield next to the tree, Natsuno reached out and found his teammates' balls in his hand.
Just as they were about to let everyone come out and stretch their muscles after disguising themselves, they were held down by the dojo apprentices.
"Sir, I will serve as your assistant for the next few days. Gym Leaders are different from ordinary Trainers."
"You should choose Pokémon of the same level range as your opponent to fight. Don't worry, our gym is fully equipped."
But then two apprentices pushed over a small cart filled with Poké Balls.
Natsuno nodded: "That makes sense. So, what about the challenger's information?"
The assistant took out a tablet and opened the reservation information on it.
Natsuno glanced at the densely packed names of challengers on the tablet and felt a chill run down his spine.
"These are all challengers? How can there be so many?"
The assistant's face showed admiration: "Thanks to researcher Natsuno, the number of trainers is increasing, and it will continue to increase in the future."
"Pokémon eggs and Power Cubes are so cheap that there will only be more and more travelers."
Xia Ye looked at the hundreds of names on the tablet, never expecting the boomerang to hit him.
"Natsuno, you've ruined my life!"
Chapter 384 Who Made Him the Dojo Master?
The assistant shook his head: "Your Excellency, these few hundred are only half of them. The Heavenly King Tree accounts for the other half."
Natsuno really wanted to escape, but she had already agreed to everything and couldn't bear to let Kazuki deal with so much on his own.
He shook his head helplessly: "Alright, call the first trainer over and give me the corresponding Poké Ball."
The assistant was now quite suspicious: "Um, what Pokémon do your partners have? Shall I prepare some specifically for you?"
Xia Ye waved his hand and patted his assistant on the shoulder: "Just listen to me. Even your One Tree King might not be as strong as me."
"No matter what Pokémon it is, I can handle it with ease, okay? I'm a Pokémon Master!"
Seeing Natsuno spout such nonsense, the assistant was worried, but with the die already cast, he had no choice but to do as he was told and bring over three balls.
"We are the Flying Gym, and we've prepared only Flying Pokémon from Kanto and Johto. Your opponent is level 30. Good luck..."
Natsuno took the ball, glanced at the label on it, patted his assistant on the shoulder, and stepped directly onto the battlefield.
At that moment, a boy ran in quickly, and the two shook hands.
"I am Souya, from Yoshihide. You look ordinary, are you really a gym leader?"
At this moment, Natsuno's superpowers acted as a megaphone, loudly announcing his arrival.
"Everyone, the first rule for trainers is: don't judge a book by its cover, and be careful when choosing Pokémon. Don't underestimate me!"
The boy was practically looking down on everyone: "No matter who you are, you're no match for me! I'm taking the Wing Badge!"
As he spoke, the boy pulled out an electric dragon, a smile playing on his lips.
Natsuno didn't say anything, but released a Noctowl: "Come on, kid, prove to me your qualities as a trainer!"
The challenger glanced at the character's encyclopedia entry and smirked: "Same level, but my character has a type advantage over mine, so the advantage is in my hands!"
Then Natsuno had the Night Hawk use its superpowers to manipulate the electric dragon at will.
Electric attacks? Superpower distortion, impossible to hit.
The Night Hawk's Air Blade kept making the boy flinch, forcing him to stand in the corner several times as punishment.
Unfortunately, Noctowl has the Hidden Ability Colored Glasses, so its normally resisted flying attacks now deal normal damage.
Since the Gym Leader cannot change Pokémon on his own, the assistant, who was initially worried, could only watch helplessly as Natsuno used Noctowl to defeat three opponents in one go.
The boy, who had initially seemed invincible, was now forced to his knees: "Mom, didn't you say that Kikyo's Gym was the weakest?"
"These are the weakest gym leaders. What about the stronger ones? I'm not fighting anymore. Fighting gym leaders is too difficult!"
The boy ran out of the arena crying, and his assistant couldn't catch up even after running until he was exhausted.
The audience gasped as they looked at the unremarkable 'Lu Renjia'.
The assistant ran back to Natsuno's side, his eyes looking somewhat strange.
"Um, sir, everyone has witnessed your strength. Could you perhaps tone it down a bit in the future? This is a dojo assessment, not a world championship."
"The core is to test the quality of the challengers, not to give it your all and break the hearts of the newcomers. I hope you can find the right balance."
Natsuno was retracting his owl with a cool gesture, wondering why the audience wasn't applauding.
The family members, including Xiao Cai and the others, who had come out to watch the show earlier, were very supportive and kept clapping.
Upon hearing his assistant's words, Natsuno immediately bit his finger: "Oops, sorry, I forgot. I thought we were playing a regular match. My bad."
"Call the next person. I have experience now, I know what to do."
The assistant, still somewhat skeptical, informed the opponents behind him.
Unexpectedly, when they heard that they were to face Lu Renjia on the stage, they all shook their heads, expressing that they would prefer to fight Yishu.
After calling several times, the assistant reported the situation, and Natsuno was delighted.
His superpowers transformed into a megaphone once more: "My assistant just told me that you guys don't dare fight me, and would rather fight One Tree Heavenly King?"
"Gentlemen, are you really trainers? You see a strong opponent but don't dare to challenge it?"
"The Pokémon I use are at the same level as yours, so my tactics aren't unbeatable, right? They're even things you learn in school textbooks."
"You guys don't even dare to challenge me? What's the point of your matches then? Go home, kids. You're the worst class I've ever seen!"
They were all young people just over 16 years old; how could they withstand such provocation from Xia Ye? And it was indiscriminate provocation at that.
He immediately charged towards Xia Ye's battlefield, howling: "What are you saying? I'll cut you down! I challenge you!"
Seeing the boys waving their fists, Natsuno quickly looked at his assistant: "Assistant, come and stop them! Don't let them rush up and attack us physically!"
Kazuki glanced at Natsuno briefly, then, distracted by the change in attention, handed her a badge.
On Natsuno's side, the hot-blooded youths instantly cleared their minds after stepping onto the stage.
But they soon discovered that no matter who it was, Natsuno would start with Night Hawk, a champion of the same caliber as the challenger.
The two-pronged attack of telekinesis and air blades was used to gamble on the opponent's cowardice.
After eliminating three people in a row, the fourth person finally found a solution.
Looking at the unconscious Night Hawk, Natsuno couldn't help but clap softly.
"It's a very standard approach to breaking the pattern. In the end, I'm just using tactics that are written in textbooks."
"I'm putting it this way: if you can apply what you've learned and turn the knowledge from textbooks into practical use, then you'll pass the test with me."
After saying that, Natsuno took out a second one, this time a Skarmory. He used the same textbook tactic: scattering water chestnuts, blowing away the feathered bird, and then attacking fiercely.
Of course, the skill of hiding and quickly dodging is also essential.
After the others unlocked Skarmory's moves, the third Natsuno chose one of the anime's recurring villains, the Big-Tooth.
Sniper + scope + charge + straight drill – this time the main focus is on vital attacks.
These were all common tactics taught in textbooks, and soon someone successfully obtained the Wing Badge.
The boy watched as the defeated Finch was knocked down, then hugged his Pokémon and cheered loudly.
Natsuno clapped enthusiastically, celebrating his opponent: "Congratulations, you've successfully passed the challenge!"
"Remember this feeling of victory. The Wing Badge is just the beginning. A bright future awaits you. Go and take on the challenge!"
Natsuno quickly pulled out a new flying Pokémon and set out new textbook questions.
Although there will always be some unlucky ones who can't perform to their full potential, the number of normal people is significantly greater, and there are very few negative reviews of Natsuno.
