What is a heavy girl? I want to be a Pokémon master!

"I really want to participate in the competition too, right, Pikachu?"

Ash glanced at Pikachu on his shoulder, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

"Pikachu~ (I think you should calm these two girls down first)"

Pikachu shrugged helplessly. Unlike its silly self, it understood emotions, especially when Sylveon attacked!

Hmm? Weren't they just having a friendly, everyday conversation?

Xiao Zhi tilted his head, puzzled.

Because Aine and Sose argue so often but never fight, Satoshi always thought it was a sign that the two had a good relationship.

that is...

Aine: Next time I go on a date with Ash, I absolutely have to use some kind of hypnotic powder to knock this kneeling girl out first... Ugh~~ That's so mean~~

Su Shi: This Tang Xiao pink hair, one day I will push her to a snow mountain or something and bury her.

There was no friendship between the two; they were simply rivals in love.

"Just kidding, Aine-chan, I won't get angry about something like this, calm down."

"I was just kidding, Su Shi~"

The two girls with the clip-like voices understood that with their crush in the middle, fighting would only affect Ash, so they quickly stopped fighting, and Aine also let go of Ash's hand.

Ash is really amazing...

Watching Aine and Suze's performance, Ruoye Mu's lips curled up slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

There was always a restless tremor in her heart. If Ye Mu always felt that it was Xiao Zhi, he would definitely be able to stay with her for a lifetime.

After all, she had never been loved before; she was just a pitiful little girl.

Both Shoko Kawabata and Motoyo Nagasaki treated Mutsuki Wakaba as a tool. The capture of Articuno was only possible because Mutsuki offered all of his Articuno badges to Motoyo.

Su Shi: Mu, I will definitely repay this kindness, so please lend me all your possessions (Articuno Badge)!

This was the first time Mu had ever seen Su Shi so shameless.

There's no saving a woman who's obsessed with love.

There are quite a few badges needed to participate in Project Articulated Bird, and it takes the two of them together for one person to participate, so Mu nodded in agreement.

Unfortunately... Su Shi: Xiao Mu, you should talk to Xiao Xiang more. I'm worried about Xiao Xiang's life (my mortal rival). I can only feel at ease if she can live a good life.

To put it simply: Su Shi: Go and be a spy, and give me information about Xiangzi!

Even Ruoye Mu couldn't hold back when faced with the increasingly shameless Su Shi.

At the same time, Mu also had a certain idea...

Is Ash really that charming? I'd like to get to know him... I have a feeling he could love me.

Mu's hand inadvertently touched Xiao Zhi, and a flutter of emotion rose in her heart, rippling outwards.

It was so warm, the kind that could soothe the soul... Suddenly, she wanted more.

Ruoye Mu: If we just get close and hold hands, Su Shi won't be angry, right?

I want to believe that Su Shi is very gentle...

"Ash... are you going to participate in the battle?"

At this moment, a hint of emotion flickered in Ruoye Mu's indifferent gaze as she took Xiaozhi's hand and tugged at it a few times.

Ke Mu found the lovers' actions amusing.

"Xiao Mu?" Instantly, Su Shi's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and even her gentle voice vanished.

The house was robbed!

Wait a minute, why are all the people around me trying to piss me off?

Is my relationship with Ash just a hobby?!

Wind Sprite, prepare for battle!

"fufu~ (Sister Su, this woman feeds me cucumbers all day long, she's a good woman, I can't do this to her!)"

"A wind sprite?~~"

Su Shi smiled gently, but there was no light in her eyes. This lack of light seemed to stir up a strange panic in Feng Yao's heart.

“fufufufu~ (You're such a beast, Su Shi.)”

"If you don't behave, I'll kill you!" Su Shi said gently, glancing at the Wind Fairy with a murderous look before turning her gentle gaze to Xiao Zhi.

"fufu~~ (Sister Su, I'm sorry~~ It was my fault)"

Whimsicott, trembling slightly, quickly nodded in agreement, releasing Cotton Spores under Wakaba Mutsu's shoes to slightly slow down the opponent—it wasn't really a punishment.

Ignoring Su Shi, Mu instead clasped his hands tightly.

"So warm."

For some reason... Mu felt an uncontrollable joy, and even the upturn of her lips was more pronounced than usual. She had to cover her mouth with her hand to prevent Su Shi from seeing it.

Is this the man from Su Shi?

Ash, you smell so good...

"It's okay, let's hear what that guy has to say first, and then I'll think about it."

Ash looked at Katsuyuki Toyokawa on the stage, who seemed to be about to give a speech.

To be honest, Ash... really, really wanted to battle their Pokémon. And there are actually some pretty good Pokémon in this area.

Ice-Treader, Olivia, Vulpix, Braviary, Magneton—these are fully evolved Pokémon.

It would be interesting to have a battle, but Ash is more interested in knowing the relationship between Katsuyuki Toyokawa and the Toyokawa family.

It wasn't for any other reason than that I cared about Xiangzi.

[Zhibao, you truly love your girlfriend~~]

Absolutely! I absolutely love Xiangzi, the others, and the important Pokémon!

I really want to be with them every day and spend every day happily!

Xiao Zhi blinked, showing no hesitation or panic whatsoever.

There's no need to be shy about this kind of thing!

The cheerful and genuine newcomer says NO!

We should strive to make everyone happy, because that's what everyone likes most!

299 Clash with the Toyokawa Clan

"I am Katsuyuki Toyokawa, who is striving to make a mark in the future tournament. I am a hard worker who has emerged from the Toyokawa family's battles against established families. I look forward to your guidance from now on."

"As everyone knows, I am aiming to become one of the Four Heavenly Kings. This year, I will participate in the tournament, win fair and square, and challenge the Four Heavenly Kings to become the champion of the Kanto region."

"I don't have any special talent; my achievements are the result of years of hard work. My biggest rival back then was a despicable person who teamed up with Team Rocket to fight me. I almost lost, but luckily, Brockovish evolved to protect me..."

Katsuyuki Toyokawa expressed his elegance by opening his arms wide, showing his goodwill.

"Hoo~ Toyokawa~ Katsuyuki!"

You can even hear the voices of the other party's fan club below, but unfortunately there are very few of them.

After all, not everyone is Qishu or Mary, so how could there be a fan club?

But...can you stop talking so much?! Why are you starting to tell stories?! Nobody wants to listen!

"It's great."

Left with no other choice, Xiao Zhi nodded slightly, a forced smile appearing on his lips, unsure of what to say.

In fact, he could hardly control himself and wanted to elbow the other person.

Elbow strike style, activated!

"Pikachu~ (I want to play too.)"

Even Pikachu is starting to get a headache.

Most of the people who come here are trainers, and they're definitely here to battle.

Nobody wants to listen to this old man's long-winded rant!

In fact, many people have already left to compete, leaving only a few remaining.

until...

"So I hope everyone will support me in the future. At the same time, the Toyokawa family will warmly welcome you. I also ask for your next opponent to fight me. I will do my best to welcome and greet you."

You're quite the talker!

Hearing this, Ash's eyes lit up with fighting spirit, and he stood up straight.

This is exactly what I've been waiting for!

"Who are you? Asama..."

In Katsuyuki Toyokawa's eyes, Satoshi walked over without hesitation, his eyes sparkling with confidence, and stood opposite Katsuyuki Toyokawa.

"Hello, would you like to have a match with me? I really want to see the power of the legendary Four Heavenly Kings."

Before Katsuyuki Toyokawa could finish speaking, Ash interrupted him and took a Poké Ball out of his pocket.

He had heard enough of what the older man had said; this time, it was... a real, real battle!

Xiangzi, I'll avenge you a little.

...

"Hey, could that guy be the kid from the Garchomp incident?"

"Really? He's really handsome!"

"Waaaaah! Zhibao, you've actually come to this island in the South China Sea?! Zhibao~ Zhibao~ Go, go!"

"Ash~ LOVE?~"

The most famous legend of the Rainbow Feather - Ash!

Just the sight of Ash standing on the field draws countless eyes.

Even members of Zhibao's fan club are here.

Of course, the members of Ash's fan club have always been by Ash's side.

The girl known for her humor is member number 00001 of the Zhibao fan club, and also its founder.

As for who it is, Aine won't say, lest Suze get angry.

"Su Shi, aren't you coming over?"

Looking at the group of girls in the fan club not far away, Aine blinked, preparing to trick Suze into going over there.

The goal, of course, was to trap the girl below and then secretly get close to Xiaozhi.

"How stupid, Ai-yin. How could I possibly stay with those people? I only use them because I find them useful. They're completely unnecessary for my Mygo."

Su Shi fiddled with her fingertips, her fingers sliding gently between them, a slight smile playing on her lips, feeling pleased.

There are two purposes for creating the fan club. First, as the leader, I want to know the thoughts and plans of my members. Second, I want to support Ash.

Su Shi is a very calculating person; she would never let anyone betray her.

For example, Su Shi was considering using a Wind Fairy to give Ai Yin a Cotton Spore to slow her down when she was in distress about needing to pee.

The responsibility naturally falls entirely on the Wind Fairy!

Wind Fairy: Sister Su...don't I need it?

Su Shi: sodayo (Yeah~)

Wind Fairy: Waaaaah...

"Xiangzi has sent a message..."

Wakaba Mutsu is replying to Toyokawa Shoko's message.

It seems that he learned from Chu Hua that Xiao Zhi went out with Mu, so he sent a message to find out more information.
