The strongest gym leader starts by beating up Gary.

In addition, there's Dragonite from Lancelot.

Fang Yuan even had the feeling that champion-level Dragonite was commonplace.

Fang Pingfeng mounted the Dragonite and looked at Fang Yuandao.

"Hey kid, remember to take good care of the dojo. After all, it's my life's work."

"If you encounter a similar situation again, remember to drag the old man from the Da Mu family into it. Old man Da Mu is quite powerful, and he has more connections than I do."

“Old Man Da Mu is also a victim in this matter, and he would never risk his grandson.”

Fang Yuan nodded, looked at his adoptive father, hesitated for a moment, and then said...

"If all else fails, then forget about seeking justice. I can always get justice myself in a few years."

Fang Pingfeng didn't say anything, just laughed twice and left.

As Fang Pingfeng left, the sun began to rise slowly, and its rays bathed the entire Songzao City.

Fang Yuan took a deep breath and said

"Sigh~ As expected, without strength, you are nothing."

After this night's battle, everyone present has grown significantly.

. . . . . .

A few days later, all the people who had come to study Bangilas were evacuated.

Although Matsumo City was attacked by poachers, Matsumo Gym Leader Fang Yuan single-handedly defeated them. As a reward, the Matsumo Gym's benefits were upgraded to another level.

At the same time, the League Daily also published a 'debunking' video.

Professor Oak personally intervened to refute the rumors.

They stated that the so-called evolution of Bangiras is fake and is a fabricated video made on the internet.

The reason for this change in form is due to the unique training method of the Matsumo Gym. Professor Oak is currently involved in the research and hopes to develop it for trainers as soon as possible.

Of course, these are all changes that are only on the surface.

For example, what's the story behind the terrifying deep pit that appeared on the Quartz Plateau? What happened to a retired superstar who died unexpectedly and had his family property confiscated as punishment?

That belongs to the undercurrents beneath the surface of the tide.

Fang Yuan's adoptive father disappeared without a trace after that day, unless he occasionally contacted Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan thought he had died on the Quartz Plateau.

Fang Pingfeng responded to Fang Yuan's speculation.

"Do you think I wanted to? Killing a retired legend in front of the league. If it weren't for Old Man Big Wood's intervention, I might have really been in deep trouble."

"Anyway, I can't go back to the Kanto region, but those old fogies won't dare to cause you any more trouble."

"Just focus on developing your health."

"I'm taking Bangiras with me too. It's not good for either of you if Bangiras stays with you. He'll attract more attention if he stays with me."

"And don't be so petty with your words. What do you mean I stole your props?"

"What's wrong with lending me your rock for a few days before your Larvitar evolves? I worked myself to the bone to kill one of the Elite Four members for you, and you can't even use your rock?"

"And what exactly is Tyranitar's Mega Evolution? You can't possibly keep it from your own father, can you?"

Considering the current situation, Fang Yuan had no choice but to reluctantly tell his adoptive father about the Mega Stone and Mega Evolution.

"Hyper-evolution? That's truly incredible."

"Oh, by the way, the League also gave you a lot of good stuff as compensation. Go see Professor Oak when you have time, and he'll give you a list."

"Sigh~ I'm not going to say anything more, I'm leaving now. Someone's started following me again, it's so annoying."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Yuan recalled his adoptive father's words and stroked his chin.

"Compensation from the alliance?"

"What I lack most right now is a Pokémon that can defend itself. If I can find a way to get Celebi's Fountain of Life, I can restore Ninetales' strength. Even if an enemy of Hunter J's level appears, I might not be without a fighting chance."

After losing Bangiras, Fang Yuan always felt that his sense of security had decreased.

We need a top-tier bodyguard to supplement our services.

"Let's go see Professor Oak first."

--------

Ladies and gentlemen, the latest information on Mega Evolution is out: it's Mega Evolution Dragonite!

What do you all think of what Mega Evolution Dragonite looks like?

I really can't stand the big wings on that head, but looking at fan art makes it more acceptable.

Chapter 64 The Aftermath of the War, the Alliance's Compensation

On the outskirts of Matsuzō City, the afternoon of the second day.

It was the spot where Hunter J's spaceship crashed. Fang Yuan and the others planned to go there again to check, just in case any survivors had escaped.

Looking at the spaceship, which was almost entirely reduced to wreckage, Fang Yuan said with a hint of helplessness.

"To be honest, the technology tree in the Elf World is really strange. A villainous organization can build such a stealth warship, but the Alliance can't see similar inventions."

Fang Yuan asked Xiao Mao and the others to search the wreckage of the spaceship for survivors or other discoveries.

Although the explosion was incredibly powerful, there were always some lucky survivors.

Fang Yuan, on the other hand, was searching for what he was most curious about.

That is, the petrification device in Hunter J's hand.

Fang Yuan was also a little worried: what if Hunter J hadn't died?

Fang Yuan's Tokiwa power and superpowers each have their own strengths, but they have one thing in common.

That means they're not very good at finding things.

Therefore, Fang Yuan had no choice but to entrust the important task of finding these things to Xiao Wen, who possessed the power of waveguides.

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's request, Xiao Wen said, utterly speechless.

"Master, that's not how I use my aura."

Despite saying that, Xiaowen still helped Fang Yuan find the location of the petrochemical device.

Relying on the powerful detection capabilities of waveguide technology, Xiaowen quickly made progress. Pointing to a pile of wreckage, she frowned and said...

"Master, it should be here."

Fang Yuan had Mudkip and Tyranitar clear away the wreckage, and then he saw the scene he least wanted to see.

The Salamence has lost all signs of life.

Fang Yuan sighed with some regret.

But just then, Fang Yuan suddenly realized that what was in the arms of the Flying Dragon was actually a stone statue.

Fang Yuan was taken aback when he saw the stone statue, and then said...

"Has Hunter J frozen himself in place? How did she actually escape unscathed?"

Fang Yuan walked towards Hunter J's statue and took the green device from the statue's hand.

"Let me see how this thing works."

Fang Yuan put the petrification device on his wrist, and then he saw a control button on the device.

Fang Yuan slid down, and Hunter J returned to its original state.

"Wow, not bad for your vitality. You're still alive after all that?"

Hunter J looked at Fang Yuan and the dead Salamence beside him, then closed his eyes in pain.

Looking at Hunter J's expression, Fang Yuan sneered.

"You get sad when you see your own Pokémon die, but what about the Pokémon you took from their trainers?"

"People like you shouldn't live in this world. It's a pity that the Salamence lost its life because of someone like you."

"Enough with the nonsense, let's get started!"

Fang Yuan shook his head and said...

"Don't worry, you will live forever, just in the Alliance's prison."

"Moreover, the League has recently invented the Mind Reading function. Although it will cause the person being read to experience the pain of being devoured by a thousand poisons, the thought of being able to return the elves you captured to their masters through Mind Reading is also very appealing."

“I suddenly feel that you shouldn’t die. At least until all the elves return to their masters, you should continue to live in pain.”

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's words, Hunter J's face instantly turned deathly pale.

She couldn't accept this outcome and instinctively wanted to commit suicide.

But the next second, Fang Yuan used the petrification device to turn Hunter J into a stone statue again, except for his head.

"Your life was saved by Salamence, how can you die so easily?"

"Let's hand her over to the Alliance. The investigators at Lance's place should be very interested in a criminal like her."

"Yes, Master!"

Xiaowen nodded beside Fang Yuan.

Hunter J listened to Fang Yuan's words, her face ashen. She knew very well what kind of torture she was about to suffer.

After deciding Hunter J's fate, Fang Yuan felt somewhat conflicted. Although he had indeed obtained the petrification device, seeing so many dead Pokémon made him feel down.

Just then, Xiaozhi and Xiaomao brought Fangyuan good news.

"Master, come quick! We've found their warehouse!"

"A warehouse? There must be a lot of treasures in there, right?"

Fang Yuan stepped forward and opened the already dilapidated warehouse door.

When Fang Yuan opened the warehouse door, he saw that it was filled with petrified elves, which made up most of the warehouse.

Fang Yuan looked at the warehouse full of elves and couldn't help but say...

"You guys are really lucky."

Fang Yuan knocked on the warehouse wall and found that the warehouse where the elves were imprisoned was exceptionally sturdy, which was why the elves were safe and sound in the explosion.

"The cage that confined you has become your protective warehouse."

"Don't worry, I will return you to your master."

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's promise, the elves who had been turned into stone statues trembled slightly, clearly having heard Fang Yuan's words.

Just after Fang Yuan finished speaking, an unexpected figure appeared behind him.

"Don't worry, I'll help these Pokémon return to their trainers, and this old man will also step in."

Fang Yuan turned around and saw Professor Oak standing in front of him with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm so sorry, I was suddenly called back by the Alliance yesterday and wasn't in Matsuzao City, which is why this happened."

"But don't worry, the mastermind behind this incident has been brought to justice."

"Nothing like this will ever happen again!"

It's obvious that after Fang Yuan's cheapskate father reached Indigo Plateau that day, Fang Yuan went from an ordinary gym leader to a super second-generation with a Champion-level Pokémon backer.

Furthermore, even Bangiras was taken away by Fang Yuan's cheapskate father, so even the most stubborn old fogies in the league dared not make things difficult for Fang Yuan anymore.

Upon seeing that it was Professor Oak, Fang Yuan said without any politeness...

"In that case, the task of finding trainers for these Pokémon is now yours."

Professor Oak patted his chest forcefully and said...

"Obligated!"

"Grandpa, Professor Oak, hello."

At this moment, Gary and Ash also came over and greeted Professor Oak, but their attitude wasn't particularly friendly.
