The sight left Haruka and Masahiro, who had been spoiled since childhood, completely stunned. How could there be such a big difference between children from the same dojo?
Xiao Zhi took the hot tea that Xiao Gang handed him and took a sip.
"And then, how did you end up on Martial Arts Island?"
"The reason we came to Fighting Island is, of course, because of the rare Pokémon here..."
"You're lying, it's obviously because of the swimsuit-clad ladies here!"
Fighting Island is a famous beach paradise, and Brock's reasoning can't fool his best friend Ash!
Sure enough, the dark-skinned man immediately showed a shy expression as if he had been exposed.
"As expected of Ash's perverted brothers, even their reasons for traveling are so simple and unpretentious. And they call themselves excellent Pokémon breeders~"
"Pokémon is also one of the important reasons!!!"
That bespectacled brat is so annoying. Xiao Gang isn't going to pour him tea later.
What's wrong with a young man full of vigor wanting to admire the bodies of beautiful older women on the beach?
As the older sister, Xiaoyao immediately covered Xiaosheng's foul mouth and turned to apologize to Xiaogang, feeling embarrassed.
However, at this moment, Xiao Gang suddenly remembered something important and hurriedly asked Xiao Zhi about it.
"By the way, Ash, since you're carrying this shiny Mudkip, did you see any other baby Mudkip on your way here?"
"We encountered many, but after only a short while, they all ran back to their habitat."
"Only this special baby Mudkip was pulled down and almost encountered danger."
Ash put the shiny Mudkip on the table. The little guy was a little scared when it was put down and wanted to hide in Ash's arms.
But upon seeing Grandpa Numata sitting at the table, a smile immediately appeared on her face, and she ran towards Numata.
"Oh, good kids, it was Ash and you who saved it. I'm sorry I misunderstood you earlier."
"It's alright, we just came to check on it because we wanted to send it back to its habitat."
"I'm relieved to hear you say that, Xiaozhi. It seems that guy succeeded."
"That guy?"
Just then, a Mudkip that was much larger than a normal baby Mudkip opened the wooden door and walked in.
Upon seeing it, Xiao Gang excitedly ran over and affectionately squatted down to stroke its head.
"Mutant is finally back. Thankfully you're safe and sound. Are the babies alright too?"
"Crackling!"
"Really? That's wonderful!"
Ash and his friends looked at the situation with blank expressions, completely bewildered.
"Xiaogang, what exactly happened?"
At this moment, Numata finally recovered from the kidnapping.
"I'll handle the rest."
"Mr. Numata."
"Just call me Grandpa Swamp."
After the misunderstanding was cleared up, Grandpa Numa turned out to be a very kind old man.
He quickly waved his hand, telling Xiaozhi and the others not to be so polite, and after taking a sip of tea, he began to explain.
"Actually, I ran into Xiao Gang, who was lost, in the forest a few days ago."
"Because ordinary people are not allowed to enter here, only Pokémon thieves usually use violent means to break through the fence and smuggle in, so there was a bit of a misunderstanding..."
"I was quite surprised when I learned that he had actually climbed up from the waterfall."
"Hey, what's with all those expressions?"
At this moment, Grandpa Swamp looked at the three of them, who all looked constipated, with a puzzled expression.
"So this place is off-limits."
"Um, I'm sorry, actually we are too..."
May and Max glanced at Ash, who could only awkwardly turn his head away.
"What? You guys climbed up from the waterfall too!"
……
I thought that my protection of the cultivation base was something that ordinary people could never break through, but I never expected that so many people would break in in such a short time.
"Are young people these days so physically weak?"
Grandpa Numa couldn't help but sigh that he was really old, and after being shocked for a few moments, he was able to continue speaking.
"After Brock helped me treat a sick Mudkip, I learned that he was aiming to become a Pokémon breeder but didn't have a place to live yet."
"I brought him to my breeding base for a temporary stay, and also to show him the process of hatching baby Mudskippers."
Of course, the main reason is that Xiaogang's cooking is too delicious.
"I never expected that a few bad guys with blue bandanas would suddenly break in this morning, trying to steal my Mudkip."
"Their sharp-toothed fish were incredibly ferocious. Luckily, Xiao Gang was there and managed to repel them."
Brock was, after all, the former Gym Leader of Pewter City, and his Pokémon training skills were certainly better than those of the evil organization's henchmen.
"But then they cunningly used the unhatched eggs in the room as leverage, demanding that we not resist..."
That's why Brock and Grandpa Swamp were doing bondage play here. When Ash first saw it, he thought it was someone's perverted hobby.
I almost exclaimed in surprise, "Has human desire reached this level?"
"But this guy arrived just in time and rescued the eggs and the baby Mudkip."
"Thanks to its active performance, everyone was spared from disaster."
At this moment, Xiao Gang also returned to the table with the mature Mudkip.
As soon as Mudkip arrived, it immediately ran to the baby Mudkip and rubbed against it with its antennae fins, causing the adorable May to squeal again.
"So that's how the fight marks at the entrance came about," Xiao Zhi said with a maternal smile as he looked at the children.
"Where are the bad guys? Why did they just tie you up and leave you here?"

"Them," Xiao Gang thought carefully.
"That group of people seems to belong to some evil organization and acted on their own."
"While they were chasing Mudkip, they suddenly received a call saying that their base had run into another group called Team Lava."
"They were reprimanded and called away by an officer named A-Quan."
"Thanks to you guys, Xiaozhi, otherwise we don't know how long we would have been tied up."
Grandpa Numa also looked terrified. "I must contact Officer Jenny in the future and strengthen the defenses here."
"Anyway, it's good that the baby Mudkip are all okay." Ash silently noted this information down in his mind.
At this moment, Xiao Sheng left his seat and ran to the incubator that was still kept in the room, excitedly looking at the small blue eggs inside.
"Speaking of which, Grandpa Swamp, how did you manage to raise so many Mudskippers?"
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Numa was immediately caught in a dilemma. After some struggle, he slammed his hand on the table and stood up.
"Oh dear, my wife keeps reminding me not to talk too much, but I just can't help it!"
He immediately spoke with great excitement.
"Young men, have you ever wondered why the first three Pokémon the League gives you are all of the same level and have strong potential?"
"That's because there are people like me who accept commissions from the Pokémon League to hatch eggs and raise them!"
"So this is the legendary secret base where the League trains the starter Pokémon! No wonder there are so many Mudkip babies here!"
Xiao Zhi looked around the simple wooden house with curiosity.
Compared to his expensive Squirtle Island, this place is much more "economical" and the breeding efficiency is also quite remarkable.
To achieve such results under these conditions, it seems Grandpa Numa is a very skilled breeder.
"That's right, it's a top secret. Kids, promise me you absolutely mustn't tell anyone!"
"Yes, we'll keep it a secret."
"Speaking of which, is that Mudkip next to Xiaogang's feet also one of the Mudkip fish here?"
Haruka was still a little hesitant to approach the grown-up Mudkip.
"It's amazing! It managed to protect the eggs and babies and help them escape from the bad guys."
But to everyone's surprise, Grandpa Numa shook his head.
"No, it's that wild Mudkip that somehow wandered in from somewhere. It seems to have taken the Mudkip here as its own, so it's been taking care of the little Mudkip."
"That sounds really good!"
"It's very nice, but the Mudkip here will eventually leave one by one; they're not its true companions."
"Because it's too big, it's not suitable for novice trainers, so nobody in the league wants it."
Everyone was starting to feel a little heartbroken, but then Grandpa Numa patted Xiaogang on the shoulder with a sense of relief.
"But it has a good relationship with Xiaogang now. Originally, this guy wasn't close to humans."
"Xiao Gang has been taking care of it for the past few days, and we've gotten along really well. We're so grateful to it this time."
"Crackling!"
Hearing this, Xiao Sheng looked at Xiao Gang with great envy.
"That's great. Speaking of Ash, that shiny baby Mudkip quickly put his guard down."
"You experienced trainers seem to be able to get Pokémon to get close to you very quickly. I wish I could be like that too."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Gang thoughtfully squatted down beside Xiao Sheng.
"Your name is Xiaosheng, right?"
"Pokémon are actually very sensitive to their trainers' emotions. If you want them to be close to you, you have to be genuinely close to them first."
"If you want to become good friends with Pokémon, you have to put in your heart and take action."
As long as it doesn't involve his older sister, Xiao Gang is a mature, reliable, and charming man, and this time, teaching Xiao Sheng is no exception.
The bespectacled kid nodded immediately after hearing this.
"Hmm, I understand. He's clearly an older pervert, but what he says makes so much sense!"
"The second half of the sentence is unnecessary!"
The room was filled with a joyful atmosphere. Then, looking at Brock and Mudkip, Grandpa Swamp brought a shiny Mudkip to Ash's side.
"Speaking of which, Ash, you're the one who saved this baby Mudkip, right?"
"Yes, the situation was really dangerous. It was left behind by its companions and almost fell off the waterfall."
"You've been left behind by your companions. Ash, this kid seems to like you a lot. Why don't you take it with you?"
"Ah, really?" Ash looked at Swamp Grandpa in surprise. Shiny Pokémon are very rare, let alone Mudkip, but his expression didn't seem like he was joking.
"It's alright, it's alright, just consider it a thank you gift for saving us earlier."
"This child was rejected by the League because its color was different from other Mudkip."
"I was originally having a headache about how to find a suitable trainer for it."
"Since you are Xiaogang's friend, you must be a very good kid. I can feel more at ease having you take care of him."
At this moment, the shiny Mudkip baby affectionately rubbed against Ash's palm. Seeing that even Grandpa Swamp had said so, Ash no longer refused.
He accepted the Poké Ball from the other party and said, "Then please take care of me from now on, Mudkip."
"Gala~ Gala~"
