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

The battle room, which had been teetering on the brink of collapse due to Ash and Senri's battle, could no longer be held up by the remaining two walls.

A large section of the ceiling suddenly collapsed, and Ash quickly used his psychic powers to block it.

Everyone inside the room quickly moved outdoors before the building completely collapsed.

After Jin Zhi hurriedly ran out, with a loud crash, the house finally collapsed into ruins.

"Great!"

"what?"

"Teacher Mitsuko?"

Having inadvertently revealed her inner thoughts, Mitsuko noticed that the disciples around her were all looking at her, so she quickly put on a pained expression.

"No, no... It's such a pity. It seems we'll have to rebuild our dojo's battle arena."

……

The day after they received the badge, Ash and his friends prepared to set off again, and the Senri couple naturally went out to see them off.

"Leaving so soon? Aren't you going to stay a few more days?"

Looking at the children who had only been home for a few days, Mitsuko's face showed reluctance.

Ash was happy to stay at the Petalburg Gym and get free food and drinks, but...

"I'm sorry, Aunt Mitsuko, we still need to get to Inoyu City. We can't waste too much time in one place."

"Is it because of something in the sky?" Qianli looked at the sky seriously.

As a gym leader who is basically locked in to become the next Elite Four member, his position has always been very special. He can know many secrets within the league from afar, and naturally he also knows about the meteorite crisis.

"If it's something this important, then we really can't let personal feelings like those of our children hold you back."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi immediately smiled and waved his hand.

"No, no, Uncle Qianli, that's just a minor problem!"

"The main reason is that I only have three badges left to qualify for the Hoenn League tournament."

"I couldn't wait to see those three empty spots in the badge box! I didn't want to wait even a day longer!"

"It's a small problem..." Qianli's lips twitched involuntarily as he looked at Xiaozhi's excited expression.

That was a major crisis that had countless high-ranking members of the alliance worrying day and night and causing them to go bald, yet they were calling it a minor issue.

"But for a man as amazing as you, it might really be a small problem."

"After all, not long ago, even the current champion, Mr. Wallace, said that the survival of the league rested on your shoulders, Ash."

Senri wouldn't take Satoshi's words as a joke.

"Wow, Lord Mikkuri thinks so highly of Ash? In that case, I won't lose either!"

Haruka has always admired Michael, a senior in the Grand Contests, and naturally hopes to leave a good impression on her idol.

She has grown a lot now, and Xiaoyao, who still has goals to achieve, will never again be tempted by the comforts of home.

"Just wait, Mom and Dad, I'll definitely make it to the Grand Contest!"

"Yes, we will definitely watch your match."

At this moment, the Senri couple felt that their decision to let Haruka and Satoshi go on a trip was the right one.

Even Xiao Sheng seemed to be well-prepared.

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, I'll take care of them on the way, they'll be fine."

"Who's usually taking care of whom, Kacchan?!"

"Quiet down, sister. Yesterday, Ash defeated Dad when he went all out using Sceptile and the others. I'm so upset."

In Xiaosheng's mind, even if his father were to lose, it should be a narrow defeat, a slight loss due to Ash's endless stream of legendary Pokémon attacks.

His powerful, excellent, handsome, and world's best father was actually defeated by Ash's Hoenn team.

Even though it was a dojo competition, Senri had sent out even the Slacker, so losing was unacceptable to Kacchan.

He was dejected for a long time last night and made up his mind.

"I must become stronger on my journey, and then become an excellent trainer in the future to avenge my father and defeat Ash!"

"Oh, that's ambitious. I'm waiting for you, Xiao Sheng."

Ash easily lifted Max up with just two fingers, even though Max had just been making grand pronouncements.

It made him look like a ridiculous little dog with fate gripping him by the scruff of his neck.

"Ah~, I oppose violence between trainers!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Although May and Max were still a little reluctant to part, they resolutely followed Ash on his journey for their respective goals.

"Seeing our children grow up always brings tears to our eyes."

Yes, darling.

Before leaving, Chisato and Mitsuko handed over the luggage they had prepared in advance to Haruka and Masaru, which was filled with various items they would need on the journey.

They were also given new allowance cards, even Ash got one, totaling a million dollars.

"Great!"

However, when Xiaoyao was looking through the bag her mother had given her, she found several strange little balloons.

The precocious Xiaoyao immediately recognized what those things were, and her face turned red.

"Mom, is it really okay for you to put something like this in your daughter's bag?"

"You never know when it might come in handy."

Based on Haruka's behavior these past few days, how could Mitsuko not see Haruka's feelings for Satoshi?

Xiao Zhi is an excellent child, and the Qianli couple both like him very much, so they don't plan to interfere with their daughter.

However, as parents, there are some things we still have to take care of.

"There's no need to put this here!"

"what is this?"

Seeing that May was reacting strangely, Ash immediately came over out of curiosity.

Then he was pushed away by the shy, erudite young woman.

"Xiao Zhi, you're not allowed to look!"

"Ah—, why?"

After training for so long, May has finally reached the point where she can slap the unsuspecting Ash away. Congratulations!

Aside from Ash's somewhat awkward head-down position...

"Haha, speaking of which, Ash, if you're going to Lilycove City, you can also stop by Littleroot Town to visit Professor Birch."

At this moment, Qianli seemed to remember something and continued.

"Professor Oak will be visiting his lab today. It seems he has something to ask you."

"Professor Oak?"

————The Wish of Destruction————

"Xiao Zhi, sister, please walk faster! You're too slow!"

"You're just too excited, Max. Professor Oak isn't going to fly away."

Before Ash could even react to Professor Oak's words, Max was already bursting with excitement.

But there's nothing we can do about it; he's a kid who grew up listening to Professor Oak's Pokémon lectures.

Kacchan is a huge fan of Professor Oak, so much so that he has read all of Professor Oak's senryu collections.

But to be honest, Ash hasn't seen Professor Oak in person for quite a long time, and he misses him terribly.

Since Max was so eager to see Professor Oak, Ash immediately picked up the two siblings and flew over from the sky.

"Ah, wait a minute, Ash..."

"It didn't say it was going to fly in the sky!"

May and Max's screams echoed throughout Petalburg Woods, but unfortunately, they were flying too fast for Ash to hear. (laughs)

Fortunately, Littleroot Town and Petalburg City are not far apart, and Ash and his friends soon arrived at the entrance of Professor Birch's laboratory.

The siblings, who were almost frozen solid, were finally freed. They quickly recovered thanks to Pikachu's electric shock.

Although the process was a bit unpleasant, since he was already there, Kashin took the lead and pressed the doorbell, eagerly waiting to meet Professor Oak.

Unfortunately, when the door opened, Dr. Birch's green-haired assistant appeared.

"Oh, it's you guys. It's been a long time, Ash, May, and Max."

"Good afternoon. We just happened to be back, so we came here to visit Professor Birch."

As soon as Ash and May finished greeting each other, Max immediately and impatiently shoved his head behind the door.

But when he looked into the laboratory, he couldn't see the two PhDs anywhere.

"Oh, wasn't Professor Oak supposed to be here too? Where are they?"

"This..."

As soon as Masahiro mentioned Professor Oak, the assistant's expression immediately fell.

"Actually, Professor Oak should have arrived around noon, but for some reason we haven't heard from him at the port."

"So Professor Birch drove to pick him up, but unexpectedly, he never heard from Professor Birch again."

"Ah, why?" Baku was extremely disappointed. He had been so looking forward to seeing Professor Oak.

"Well, I really don't know either," the green-haired assistant said helplessly.

Professor Birch is an expert in studying wild Pokémon and has extensive experience being chased by wild Pokémon. He is usually quite reliable.

"The professor brought the Pokémon from the research institute with him before he left, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"But there's still no news, so it's hard to say whether something unexpected has happened."

"I have already contacted Ms. Officer Jenny for help in the search, but unfortunately there has been no news so far."

"how so."

At this moment, Xiaoyao couldn't help but worry.

"That's really strange. It can't be that Professor Birch and Professor Oak's car overturned on the mountain road, can it?"

"Ah!" ×3

Unexpectedly, Ash's casual remark caused May, Max, and his assistant to widen their eyes simultaneously.

What's wrong with you?

"Ash, you don't know, Professor Birch's driving skills are known throughout the area as wild."

Xiaoyao immediately explained, feeling embarrassed, and her assistant quickly added to the explanation.

"That's right, and I've developed a habit of never taking the main road while researching Pokémon in the wild."

"Who knows, it's quite possible that the car really did overturn in some ravine..."

Upon realizing this situation, Xiaosheng quickly pulled Xiaozhi and Xiaoyao out to search for them.

But what is the real situation of Professor Oak and Professor Birch?

It did indeed crash, but not because of Dr. Birch's driving skills, but because he was attacked.

"Damn it! Who are you people, and why are you doing this?"

In a secret base deep in the mountains not far from the research institute, Dr. Odori was shouting angrily at the monitor above his head.

Professor Oak is also locked in the large iron cage.

Apart from their white coats, all their belongings were taken by the thugs who arrested them.
