Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

But after all, the Pokémon world is a world with abundant resources and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment. Most crimes committed out of necessity have no basis for existence in this world.

Therefore, there have been no vicious incidents here for a long time, and the overall atmosphere is quite peaceful...

Therefore, as the gym leader, Du Juan believes that Team Rocket is the root of all evil, and as long as Team Rocket is completely defeated, the whole world will be stable and peaceful. This idea would be considered "naive" in other studios.

But now, she also had to accept that there would always be people in this world who were not content with just living and working in peace, and peace, even in such a utopian world, was not so easy to obtain...

Today, the elite trainers responsible for guarding the mining area encountered the most vicious incident in history...

"Haha, you're so vulnerable!"

A short and fat young man with a burly build laughed heartily. In front of him, several young men and women dressed as trainers showed disbelief as they looked at their Pokémon partners who had lost their combat effectiveness.

The short and fat young man laughed and waved his hands, "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. Take your Pokémon and get out of the way. I don't want to hurt anyone. Our Magma Team is not some unreasonable villain..."

While speaking, the short and fat young man proudly puffed out his chest and pointed to the volcano-shaped badge on his chest. That was the logo of the Lava Team he mentioned. Obviously, he was quite proud of his identity.

The trainers and guards he defeated were looking at each other in bewilderment...

...They probably didn't expect that these invaders would be so merciful. For a moment, the situation seemed a little weird.

Chapter 47: Lava Team Cadre Huocun

Perhaps these trainer guards did not expect that the opponent would show mercy and not attack them to death directly.

But after all, the other party took the initiative to come to the door, and now they are asked to step back and make way. If they really do it, it will naturally be equivalent to disqualification as a guard.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do, and the short and fat young man opposite sounded a little impatient.

"What a hassle, can you please cooperate a little? Haven't you already lost the fight? I've already told you that I don't mean to hurt anyone... Fire Camel!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and a Pokémon in front of him, whose entire body was covered with crimson fur and had two volcano-like humps on its back, raised its head and suddenly blew out two streams of thick black smoke from its nose.

"?!"

The guards over there realized that something was wrong. Thick black smoke rolled in, and the pungent stench made people cry.

Originally, they could rely on the power of Pokémon to disperse the smoke, but at this moment, their Pokémon had lost their combat effectiveness, and they had no means of countering the thick smoke.

Even if they wanted to guard here until the last second, their flesh and blood bodies could not resist the erosion of the thick smoke. The billowing black smoke gathered at the scene for dozens of seconds. When the smoke cleared, the guard trainers on the scene were lying on the ground in a mess.

"If you had cooperated earlier, wouldn't you have to do this?"

The short and fat young man shook his head, signaled his fire-breathing camel to stop spewing smoke, and then swaggered past the unconscious guard.

The last obstacle had been cleared, and at this moment, the warehouse he was targeting was within reach.

The warehouse door was locked tightly, and there were several heavy door locks on it. The lock bars, which were as thick as an adult's thighs, were crisscrossed horizontally and vertically, making the entire warehouse door secure as a rock.

"Ah……"

The short and fat young man shook his head and immediately took two steps back to signal the fire-breathing camel beside him. The latter snorted again. This time, what came out of its nose was no longer billowing black smoke, but blazing flames...

…Even though the door was quite sturdy and the lock on it was impregnable, it was useless in the face of the power of Pokémon.

The volcano-like hump on the back of the fire-breathing camel evolved from its own bones, which is equivalent to having a small volcano in its body. After accumulating enough energy, it can directly spew out hot magma...

Even among various natural disasters, volcanic eruptions are considered to be top-notch. It is equivalent to having the firepower of a small volcano buried in the body. The power of the continuously erupting golden-red flames can be imagined.

After a short while, the lock on the door began to soften and melt. At this rate, it would take less than ten minutes to break into the door.

Just when the short and fat young man estimated that he would soon succeed, there was a sudden whistling sound, and a huge rock with a diameter of more than ten meters fell from the sky. With a loud bang, it directly blocked the gate and blocked all the flames spewed out by the fire-breathing camel.

"Ok?"

The short and fat young man quickly looked up, and saw three huge rocks of the same size falling down right after him.

"not good!"

Realizing something, he quickly pulled back. Although he was a fat man, he was quite agile. While retreating, he did not forget to put the Charizard into the Poké Ball.

After all, Charizard's terrible speed made it impossible for it to react the moment the attack arrived, so it could only retract it into the Poké Ball first.

He retracted the fire-breathing camel and moved to evade at the first opportunity. The whole set of movements was smooth and flowing. When he stood firm again, four huge rocks fell one after another, forming a blockade circle. If the short and fat young man was a few seconds slower, he would have been trapped to death here.

"..." The short and fat young man saw this, but there was not much surprise on his face. He just smiled and said, "You are here after all, the gym leader of Kanaz City..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud roar like a chariot, and a black shadow over ten meters long came rushing over, and on the back of the rushing figure, there were two figures standing.

Needless to say, Du Juan and Lowe were the first to rush to the mining area on their Onix.

The "Rock Blockade" just now was naturally from Du Juan's hand. It was a pity that she failed to trap the opponent by a few points, otherwise things would have been simple.

"You're the guy from Team Lava, the only one?"

Du Juan saw the short and fat young man in front of her clearly, and the other party smiled and waved his hand, "The others were beaten down by the guards here. Because they were really in the way, they were asked to disperse first... So I advised the boss a long time ago that blindly expanding the manpower is not a good idea. Not only can they not help, but they will also hinder us."

"..."

It seems that the elite trainers here are not too disgraceful. At least when facing the miscellaneous soldiers and minions of the Magma Team, they can still repel the opponents quite easily.

However, until the short and fat young man in front of them took action, those guard trainers were no match for him.

That means the opponent is obviously different from those miscellaneous soldiers.

"who are you?"

The other party seemed to be waiting for Du Juan to ask this question. He immediately smiled and straightened his chest, pointing to the Lava Team badge on his chest, "...Lava Team cadre Huocun, please give me your guidance."

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

"Okay, I remember that. Next up... Double-edged headbutt!"

Without any intention of saying another word, Du Juan, who had just been calmly asking about the other party's identity, raised her hand and issued an order without saying a word.

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Onix had already gathered a layer of light on its horn and charged towards her!

"Hey, don't be so angry. I know I'm no match for you, so someone will come and give you a good fight later~"

While saying this, Humura raised his hand and threw the Poké Ball. With a flash of light, a sturdy black-haired wolfhound appeared, carried Humura on its back and nimbly dodged the attack.

Lowe recognized at a glance that this was a large wolfdog evolved from a coyote. As a family pet, the ownership rate of coyote dogs was quite amazing in the Hoenn region, so it was not surprising.

But just as the big wolfhound leaped up with Huocun on its back, a strong gust of wind came from the side, and the Onix swept over with its long tail shining with metallic light and headbutted him, as if it had already figured out Huocun's avoidance route and blocked his retreat in advance.

Huocun's expression was serious. At the critical moment, he raised his hand and released the fire-breathing camel to block the way. The tail hit the fire-breathing camel hard, and its rock-like body was forced to retreat three steps before it could barely stand firm.

At the same time, Humura also jumped off the back of the big wolfhound. The big wolfhound and the fire-breathing camel protected him in front and behind. The fire-breathing camel, which had taken a strong hit, was obviously a little unstable on its feet.

Fire Village, who could easily fight against multiple elite trainers, was now in a two-on-one situation and was put at a disadvantage by Du Juan in one fight.

And Du Juan hadn't even used her trump card yet... Hucun sighed again...

"...As expected of a gym leader~"

Chapter 48 Gas Explosion

As a leader of the Magma Team, Himura's strength... is naturally different from the small fry of the Magma Team who can't even pass the test of the Pokémon Academy...

His strength is roughly between elite trainers and gym masters, and among gym masters there are also different levels of strength. There are masters like Sakaki, Liu Bo, and Qianli who are firmly at the king level and can even easily beat the champion for a few rounds, and there are also newcomers who are only slightly stronger than elite trainers.

Huocun is almost the same as these new gym leaders, but his strength is not enough in front of Du Juan.

Although Miss Iwa's top student is not as good as boss-level characters like Sakaki and Yanagi, nor as good as a man like Qianli who has the invincibility written all over his face, she is still a solid mainstay among the gym leaders...

So even though Fire Village had easily won against the elite trainer just now, when facing Du Juan, the unethical two-on-one fight was put at a disadvantage in the first encounter.

"...If you surrender yourself, you will suffer less. Be honest and don't try to do anything in front of me."

Du Juan's voice was very sharp, and it was nothing like the voice she had when she was fighting Lowe before. After all, facing the trainers who came to challenge her, she was a kind senior, but facing those villains who tried to disrupt the order, she was the gym leader who guarded one side and would never allow any mercy to the law enforcer!

Facing Du Juan's persuasion to surrender, Huocun "honestly" raised his hands, "Hahaha, don't make such a scary expression, your rare beauty will be ruined. Of course I won't do anything small. After all, I'm not the one who wants to compete with you~"

"!"

Lowe, who had come along originally, was still wondering if there was anything he could do to help, but now he saw that the gym leader was indeed very strong, and it seemed that there was no need for him to help at all.

But just as this thought came to his mind, Lalulas on Lowe's shoulder nervously patted the side of Lowe's face with her little hand, and Lowe immediately came back to his senses.

"who!"

As soon as the words fell, a piercing scream came to my ears...

"ultrasound?"

Turning my sight, I saw a huge bat with a wingspan of nearly two meters... and two pairs of wings falling from the sky. On each of the bat's feet was a rope, and two figures in red uniforms were hanging from the ropes from mid-air.

The ultrasonic wave was emitted by this fork-bat. At the same time, just as the ultrasonic wave disturbed Lowe's attention, dozens of fireballs the size of washbasins attacked from the opposite direction!

At the moment, everyone was in front of the warehouse of the factory in the mining area. Apart from a mountain path opened up in the mountain, there were towering cliffs on both sides. The attack seemed to be coming from one side of the cliff!

The opponent hid the Pokémon on one side of the cliff in advance, and then attacked from the other side on a Crossbat, using ultrasonic waves to distract attention from this side, and then launched a strong attack from the other side.

But just as the fireballs were approaching, a buzzing sound accompanied by a dazzling arc of electricity lit up, and dozens of fireballs simultaneously smashed into a half-real and half-virtual barrier...

Lowe was naturally familiar with this, as it was the electromagnetic shield that had given him such a headache before...

...This electromagnetic shield certainly gave Lowe a lot of headaches when it was on the other side, but now that it has become a force on his side, he feels indescribable sense of security.

The electromagnetic shield protected Lowe and Du Juan, and the attack had no effect on them at all.

Du Juan still had no expression on her face. It was obvious that this sneak attack was within her expectations...

In contrast, Du Juan was more interested in the two people who came to help at this moment...

...One of the figures hanging on the suspension ropes between the feet of the cross-bat was a purple-haired girl who looked about the same age as Du Juan. She had no expression on her face and was very indifferent.

On the other side, there was a tall and thin mysterious man wearing a crimson cloak, his head and face obscured by a hood.

"Yo..." Over there, Huocun raised his hands and greeted the two men with a smile, "Boss, Huoyan, you came at the right time~"

Over there, a figure covered in a cloak nodded, and from under the cloak came a mechanical voice that was obviously adjusted through a voice changer.

"...Then leave this to me."

Before he finished speaking, a brilliant beam of light swept across. It was the cannon beam released by Du Juan's Big North. Obviously, Du Juan had determined that the person on the opposite side was also a helper, and since Huocun called the cloaked man the boss, she was even more certain that he was the boss of the Lava Team.

In this case, there is naturally no need to be polite. He just fired a laser cannon directly at the opponent's face, showing his strong martial virtue.

The opponent's reaction was not slow either. He immediately loosened his hand holding the rope and jumped down from mid-air. Halfway through, another shadow was released from the Poké Ball on his waist.

The Pokémon sent out this time was composed of two balloon-like spheres, with holes all over its body spewing black smoke. Lowe's eyelids twitched when he saw it.

"Double bomb gas? Oops..."
