Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

In the northwest corner of the Hoenn Desert, thanks to the efforts of Ash and his Pokémon, the desolate landscape was permanently transformed.

The territory of the Kingdom of Miraju has increased by a quarter out of thin air.

If Ash manages to completely control the Great Desert in the future, the kingdom's area could double again.

As this series of events unfolded, the entire kingdom now knew, "This newly arrived regent is no ordinary man!"

To be recognized by so many legendary Pokémon is truly astounding.

Even the legendary league championship, supposedly created by celestial beings, pales in comparison. (True)

Even the ministers who had previously harbored resentment towards Xiaozhi's behavior no longer dared to act recklessly.

Their fear level and loyalty are both skyrocketing.

Of course, building spectacular highways and transforming vast deserts are all part of a grand, macro-level strategy.

These measures will take time to show results; at least until the Crimson Group establishes the new city in the new territory, the people will know how good Satoshi's plan is.

But the thing that had the greatest impact on the residents of the Kingdom of Miraju was the purification of several previously undrinkable water sources by the Eight Treasure Porridge.

As a kingdom situated beside a vast desert, Miraju has relatively lush vegetation, but its water resources remain scarce.

Therefore, after Suijun intervened, the living conditions in the capital were greatly improved.

At least people no longer have to be as frugal and stingy as before, even when taking a bath.

The Black and White creatures are incredibly powerful and imposing, able to summon wind and rain and blot out the sun. However, people are more afraid of and worshipful of their extraordinary power.

If we're talking about who's truly beloved, we have to look to Suijun.

After Ash completed the first phase of desert cleanup, he immediately rode his little black dog and carried Eight Treasure Porridge to begin a clean water pilgrimage across various regions of the Miraju Kingdom.

While bringing news of the kingdom's new king and regent, Ash and Eight Treasure Porridge immediately and effectively improved the living conditions of the local people.

With such a combination of kindness and severity, Xiao Zhi won the hearts of the people wherever he went in just a few days.

Sure enough, statues of Ash and Eight Treasure Porridge have been spontaneously erected by people.

The Eight Treasure Porridge was even placed in the temple along with the great god Pokobi, a traditional deity of the Kingdom of Miraju, and offered sacrifices by the temple priests.

This made the Eight Treasure Porridge incredibly proud.

"Hehe, I'm just so popular wherever I go!"

Then Ash kicked it away to purify more water sources.

[Ding! Eight Treasure Porridge: Favorability +1; Intimacy +1]

"Xiao Zhi, you are amazing! I never knew you had the talent to govern a country!"

"It's nothing. In fact, the principles of managing a country and governing a large company are the same."

"As long as stability is guaranteed, just do the right things as much as possible."

A few days later in the palace, Haruka was crouching under a cluster of blooming flowers, her face in her hands, intently watching Ash train.

She never expected to see Xiaozhi like this again; his powerful and commanding demeanor was very different from when he was traveling.

He is more capable and mature. Although his expression is somewhat intimidating when facing ministers, he has a unique kind of handsomeness.

However, Xiaoyao was so engrossed in gazing at Xiaozhi's profile that she became completely absorbed.

It wasn't until Misty coughed lightly after arriving that Haruka realized what was happening, and quickly blushed as she took her Pokémon to continue training.

"So, what does our Regent want with me?"

Xiaoxia's tone now carried a hint of jealousy.

Last night, she saw that Sarah's lower abdomen had been tattooed with a silver pattern that only she had ever had before.

Although it's not a big deal, it's just the phrase "for XX only," a little bit of fun between couples.

But for some reason, I feel a sense of jealousy, as if something of mine has been taken away from me.

Ash, a guy whose head is full of muscles, naturally didn't understand Misty's subtle thoughts at that moment.

He silently finished his last one-handed push-up of the day, then took a Light Stone from his pocket and handed it to Xia.

"Here, this is a gift for you, an item that can evolve Togekiss."

"Pokkiku?"

“That’s right, I specifically asked Professor Oak about its evolutionary conditions.”

Ash specifically asked Sundae to deliver this.

Xiaoxia took the Stone of Light and said with some surprise.

"It's kind of you to remember Pokkiku, thank you."

After saying that, Xiaoxia placed the Light Stone directly on Togekiss beside her.

A flash of light appeared, and Togekiss evolved into Togekiss.

Its original small wings have become bigger, and its whole body has become a little chubby, like a soft big cloud or a small white airplane.

Xiaoxia's top-tier combat power has increased by one point again.

The evolved Togekiss was quite happy, flying freely in the sky like a butterfly.

Seeing this scene, Xiaoxia was filled with emotion.

"Togepi has grown up completely. It feels like just yesterday that it was still an egg."

Previously, Togekiss was worried about the black gas pollution at the park and wanted to stay and protect it, but Ash persuaded and stopped it.

During this time, Ash and Sarah swiftly dealt with all the lingering problems left by Hanzo, and at the same time rectified many wrongful convictions, bringing order to the entire nation.

Finally, the situation in the park has improved.

This saved Xiaoxia and Pokkis from the tragic situation of being separated from their "parents".

So at this moment, Xiaoxia secretly forgave Xiaozhi for the mistake of wronging the Empress, thinking, "I won't kick him out of bed tonight."

Although the result of Xiaoxia kicking Xiaozhi off the bed was that she was immediately pulled off the bed by Xiaozhi as well.

The effect was always the same as with Xiahou Dun's left eye—no effect.

While watching Togekiss flying in the sky, Ash suddenly walked over to Misty with a serious expression.

"Xiaoxia, if it ever comes to a necessary moment later, I'd like to borrow your Togekiss."

"Of course, but what's up?"

"Protect Hoenn".

After becoming the regent of the Miraju Kingdom, Ash read through all the archives in the kingdom and the temple.

He finally understood just how powerful the protective force of Togepi Park was.

The happier the people of Miraju Kingdom are, and the stronger the positive forces of gentleness, joy, and love become, the more Togepi will be born in Paradise.

When there are enough Togepi, led by a powerful individual from the same birthplace, the Guardian Force can cover the entire Hoenn region.

Ash was overjoyed to hear the news and immediately shared the information with Higanbana.

However, since it was a protective force generated by a group of Togepi, the strength of the shield still had an upper limit.

While it's impossible to directly withstand the impact of a super-large meteorite, Ash can easily neutralize the bombardment of scattered fragments after breaking the meteorite.

That's enough.

Ash also told Misty everything about the impending crisis facing Hoenn.

Xiaoxia has always been a brave and kind girl, after all, it concerns the safety of so many people in the entire region.

Xiaoxia will naturally support Xiaozhi and his friends in doing the right thing, within her capabilities.

"But Ash, you have to promise me that nothing will happen to you and Togekiss!"

"That's natural!"

————The finishing touch————

That afternoon, the Crimson Group's personnel finally arrived in the Kingdom of Miraju by air taxi, carrying a large amount of supplies.

With the assets of those morally corrupt nobles that Ash previously stole as funds, Miraju's grand era of infrastructure construction is about to begin.

Roads were renovated, houses were rebuilt, and factories were constructed!

All sorts of novel products from the Dark Market are flooding into Miraju, and even the routes for air taxis are being planned here...

For a moment, a vibrant scene of life and all things flourishing was right before my eyes!

What the group needs to do is to steadily build up the Kingdom of Miraju and make a profit at the same time.

Sarah is now proficient in handling government affairs.

Even if Ash is temporarily absent, with her current abilities and prestige, she is more than capable of ensuring the stable development of the Miraju Kingdom.

Having made arrangements for the rest of the trip, it was time for Ash and his friends to leave Mirazuch and head towards their original destination, Flake Town.

I unexpectedly stayed here for an extra month, and time is running out.

However, before leaving, Ash made a special trip to contact the League Champion.

After all, the plan to save Hoenn still needs to be coordinated with them.

To his surprise, the face that appeared on the screen after the call connected was not the handsome, arrogant face he used to see.

"Where is that rich young master who always says he's handsome and capable?"

Chapter 424 The New Champion, Mikoli

"Um... hello, I'm looking for the league champion, thank you."

"This is Mikkelsen, the league champion. What brings you here?"

"League champion Mikkelsen?"

"Lord Michael!"

Before the other person could finish speaking, May, who had been standing listlessly behind Ash, immediately perked up.

They immediately squeezed to the front, excitedly watching the face appear on the screen.

After becoming a Coordinator, May became a fan of Wallace, watching his matches in the Grand Contests every day.

Of course, in the entire Hoenn League, there isn't a single young Coordinator who doesn't idolize Wallace.

Being able to see her idol in person only made her slightly excited; Xiaoyao is already considered an extremely rational fan.

Michael's mannerisms were both elegant and somewhat alluring, but he didn't come across as effeminate; on the contrary, he was quite masculine.

"Mickey, that name sounds familiar..."

"Please, Ash, how could you forget, Mr. Wallace? He's Rukia's uncle, the famous top-tier Coordinator!"

"Oh, right!"

At this moment, Ash's muscular, pointed head regained its advantage, and he finally remembered who Wallace was.

It seems that Higanbana mentioned to him earlier that the league champion had changed.

At this moment, Xiao Zhi also quickly checked the number he had dialed.

"It was definitely a call to Daigo's private number, so why did this flamboyant, effeminate blue-haired man answer it?"

Ash was particularly curious about the relationship between the two of them, which was why Wallace would answer Steven's private phone call.

But that's not something Ash should worry about; all he needs to do is find the League Champion.

He immediately explained the important matter to Mikoli in detail, and Mikoli's expression turned serious upon hearing it.

"Ash, is what you said about the Guardian Power of Paradise and the Dynamax Cannon true?"

He didn't ask Ash where he learned about the giant meteorite.

The fact that the other party had Steven's private phone number is enough to prove that Ash is someone trusted by the League's higher-ups.

What Mikkuri was more concerned about was whether what Ash said could really come true.

He has actually been quite stressed out lately because of the meteorite crisis.

Although he fought hard to defeat Daigo and claim the league championship, he realized he had been tricked when he saw how happy Daigo was during the handover.
