I caught a Pokémon

"Well done!!"

Xia You's eyes lit up, and she shouted, "Quickly, bring the pearl over!"

"What!?"

Compared to him, Shui Wutong's expression changed drastically!

As he watched the pearl leap over his head and fly towards Xia You, he reached out to grab it, but because of the height, he couldn't reach it at all!

Seeing that Baozhu was getting closer and closer to Xia You, he became anxious and made a desperate move.

"You guys, attack that spot!"

He casually pointed to the top of the cave, and several team members looked in the direction he pointed. They saw a huge stalactite under the cave ceiling in the center of the battlefield!

Without a second thought, they immediately directed their Pokémon to attack the area.

Just as the pearl flew downwind of the stalactite, their attack arrived. Instantly, several different moves struck the stone, and in the explosion, the stalactite suddenly fell, not only crushing the pearl underneath, but also filling the air with smoke, completely obscuring their vision!

Oops!

At almost the same time, Xia You and Shui Wutong rushed towards the spot where the pearl had fallen.

The Pokémon on both sides naturally wouldn't let Xia You and Archie reach there so easily, and they all turned to attack, but were stopped by the Pokémon on both sides.

The scene was extremely chaotic.

Almost simultaneously, Xia You and Shui Wutong arrived at the ruins of the stalactites.

only……

The indigo jewel was buried among the rubble, so no one was able to find it immediately!

Chapter 683 Run! Run!

After scanning the pile of rubble, Water Wutong was the first to spot the indigo blue bead.

What delighted him even more was that the indigo jewel was obviously closer to him, seemingly within easy reach in just a few steps!

He grinned maliciously, took a big step, and then bent down to reach for it. But to his surprise, the pearl flew up on its own the moment his hand touched it!

what! ?

He looked up and saw a Gengar suddenly appear in mid-air, clearly the one who had just picked up the gem!

"Hehehehe, this sparkly stone is mine!" Gengar laughed, holding the precious stone as it flew back to Xia You's side.

"Damn it!!"

Archie roared angrily, then tossed a Poké Ball, and a Grimer appeared in front of Xia You.

Before Xia You could even see what he had sent out, he was immediately hit by an unbearable stench that even made his eyes sting!

He coughed several times before finally turning his attention to the smelly Mud.

There's a saying that the more pungent the stench of a Mud monster, the stronger it is.

Although it's just a rumor and hasn't been scientifically proven, Xia You now knows that it might actually have some basis, after all, the stinky mud from the Water Wutong is really too smelly!

It was almost the smelliest of all the stinky slimes he had ever encountered!

"Muck, use Sludge Bomb!!"

Stinky Mud reached into its body and pulled out a clump of murky purple stuff from somewhere, then threw it at Xia You!

However, all of its attacks were blocked by Gengar's Shadow Ball.

The Shadow Ball exploded upon hitting the murky mass, sending countless unidentified objects flying out, splashing in all directions like a rain of flowers.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xia You quickly retreated.

Just as Shui Wutong was about to continue the pursuit, a deep, whale-like roar suddenly echoed through the cave!

Kyogre has awakened from his slumber!

It was awakened from its deep sleep by the sounds of Pokémon battling, and when it opened its eyes, it saw that these uninvited guests had invaded its habitat.

It's unclear whether it was anger, territoriality, or being disturbed while sleeping that made it resentful.

Once awakened, it displayed a furious side.

He didn't exert any force at all; he just turned his body, and the entire cave shook violently!

Everyone knows that this ancient legendary Pokémon, the embodiment of the sea, has been touched by them!

Countless stalactites fell from the cave ceiling; their sheer number and density made it virtually impossible for anyone to avoid them.

The rocks were falling with a crackling sound. Just as a huge rock was about to hit him, Gengar floated up to his head and blocked the rock with its body at the critical moment!

Apart from him, the others also fled in a sorry state.

Xiaoxia and Aquan were naturally within the range of the falling rocks, but with Gardevoir by their side, their safety was not a concern.

The other Pokémon could only rely on their own methods to avoid danger.

As for Water Wutong and those few Ocean Team elites, Xia You had no interest in giving them a second glance.

Another stone fell, and Gengar still blocked Xia You's head.

However, perhaps the rock was too huge this time, because after Gengar was hit, it groaned and lost its grip on the orbs, which fell from mid-air and rolled to the side.

Fortunately, the pearl only rolled to the front of A-Quan, who quickly picked it up.

The tremors stopped, and at the same time, the stalactites on the cave ceiling ceased falling. Georka ignored the intruders, turned, and disappeared into the water.

"No!!!" Seeing it escape, Water Wutong screamed in despair, her eyes blazing with murderous rage as she turned to Aquan, "It's all because of you! Give me the pearl!!!"

At this moment, the highest leader of the Ocean Team looked rather disheveled.

In trying to avoid falling rocks, I ended up with bruises all over my body, and I don't even know where my headscarf has fallen off.

Fortunately, since they were all trainers, no one suffered any further injury.

"I'm sorry..." A-Quan took a step back, his expression reluctant, but his tone was very firm, "I can't just stand by and watch you drag Team Aqua and the entire Hoenn into an abyss!"

"traitor!!"

Archie flew into a rage and commanded his Pokémon to charge recklessly towards Azumi.

Seeing that A-Quan was still standing there, wanting to explain something to Shui Wutong, Xia You first called out to Xiaoxia, then casually grabbed A-Quan's hand and led her away. The three of them returned the way they came!

It's not that we can't establish a system like the Water Wutong system here, but there are two important factors that need to be considered.

The first thing is A-Quan's attitude. She is currently going through a difficult period. Even though Shui Wutong believes that she has betrayed the Ocean Team, she has never attacked the Ocean Team. Even when attacked, she has no intention of fighting back. It can be said that her heart is still with the Ocean Team.

Under such circumstances, Xia You was about to attempt to arrest Shui Wutong, which would likely provoke her attack, leaving him vulnerable from behind.

The second reason is even simpler.

This is, after all, a deep cave. If they are pushed to the limit, Shui Wutong might try to take them all down with her and collapse the cave, leaving them nowhere to escape.

Although the possibility is very low, we still have to be prepared.

Moreover, since Kyogre has already left and the Indigo Orb has fallen into their hands, leaving this place immediately and then making further plans is the best choice!

Ah Quan only came to his senses after Xia You pulled him like that.

It's no wonder she lost her composure; it was completely different from her previous behavior. After experiencing such a change, it was difficult for her to maintain her usual calm.

It can only be said that even the smartest woman has moments when she loses her composure.

Under the cover of the Pokémon, the three ran all the way back to where the submarine was docked.

The Team Aqua member who stayed behind was waiting there anxiously. When he saw A-Quan return from afar, his eyes lit up. He was about to ask a question when he saw the three people in front of him not turn around, recall their Pokémon, and enter the submarine!

He didn't know what had happened ahead that had made one of the cadres, A-Quan, so flustered.

Thinking about the tremor he had just experienced, his curiosity grew even stronger.

Did the leader and Kyogre get into a fight?

But why is it only Ah Quan who came back?

Just as he was pondering, A-Quan had already steered the submarine to sink. It was only then that Shui Wutong arrived late with the elite team members.

Upon seeing this team member, Shui Wutong shouted, "Where's A-Quan?!"

"She has already left here in her submarine."

"What?!" Shui Wutong exclaimed, her eyes wide. "Why didn't you stop her?"

"Huh? Why did you stop her?"

Shui Wutong ignored him and also entered their submarine. Only after everyone was inside did this team member learn from the elite team members that Aquan had betrayed the Ocean Team.

"This..." He stared in shock at the elite team member who had told him this unbelievable news, remaining silent for a long time before muttering, "This can't be, right? Could there be a mistake?"

This also shows what kind of status A-Quan has in the Ocean team.

I'd rather believe the news is wrong, or suspect that Shui Wutong and those people are joking, than believe it's true!

"Enough with the nonsense." Shui Wutong glared at him. "Start chasing them now! And contact A-Chao at the same time, tell him to stop that traitor at all costs!"

"I...I understand."

As the team member pressed the communication button, the signal was quickly connected to Ah Chao's device.

As soon as the call connected, Ah Chao's impatient voice came from the other end.

"Leader, have you taken control of Kyogre?"

The water sycamore was like a powder keg that had been ignited, and it exploded.

"Stop that traitor right now!!!"

"Traitor!?" Ah Chao's voice was full of astonishment. "What traitor? What are you talking about?"

"Don't let A-Quan get away!" Shui Wutong roared. "She betrayed me! She betrayed the entire Ocean Team!! Not only did she bring that man named Xia You to me, but she also took that precious pearl!!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing this news, Ah Chao was equally shocked, but as a cadre, he reacted faster than the team members.

Although I also had my doubts about whether A-Quan had really betrayed the Ocean Team, it was always the right thing to do to stop her!

With a wave of his hand, he led several team members into their submarine.

……

It was still that narrow and long underwater passage. Ah Quan was piloting the submarine. Although she had successfully stopped Shui Wutong, her mood at this moment could only be described as chaotic.

Why did things turn out this way?

Why did I become a traitor?!

Behind her, Xia You didn't even need to look at A Quan's face to seem to sense her emotions.

He glanced out the window and said calmly, "I know what you're thinking, but if you continue to be so distracted and not drive carefully, I believe it won't be long before Shui Wutong catches up with us."

Xia You's reminder brought A-Quan back to reality from his own world.

Her body trembled slightly, and after a few seconds of silence, she coldly snorted, "I know."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia You felt the submarine suddenly accelerate, as if it were a whole level faster than before!

However, due to the delay, the submarine that Shui Wutong was on had already caught up, and Xia You could even feel its bright searchlight shining on their stern!

At the same time, the communicator inside the submarine lit up.

Ah Quan hesitated for a moment, but still pressed the call button.

The next second, Shui Wutong's furious voice echoed inside the submarine.

"Ah Quan, how dare you betray the Ocean Team! I'll tear you to shreds!!"

"I didn't, please listen to me..."

However, before A-Quan could finish speaking, the communicator was disconnected by Shui Wutong, leaving only a busy tone.

Watching A-Quan's retreating figure, Xia You shook her head: "It's no use. You can't communicate with people who have lost their minds. And isn't this just right? They've removed you from their ranks, so you don't have to associate with them anymore."

"I'm not a traitor! Everything turned out this way because of you!"

"Because of me?" Xia You rolled her eyes at her and said irritably, "You should know that if it weren't for me, Archie would probably have already reverted Kyogre to its original state! Tell me, which do you want: the sea that swallows the world or the name of a traitor?"

Speechless, Ah Quan, still angry, simply stopped paying attention to Xia You and focused on piloting the submarine.
