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

Cross-shaped poisoned blade!

"Use the shield!"

"Yam!" Farfetch'd immediately raised its left hand, and a shield made of onion leaves appeared in front of it. The poisoned blade struck the shield hard, making a crisp sound.

It decisively flung away its shield, which, along with the poisoned blade, was violently thrown aside.

"Brave Bird, attack!" Ash gave the command without hesitation.

"Ya Mo!" At the same time, the Onion Soldier was surrounded by a stream of scorching blue light. It suddenly jumped up again in mid-air and landed above the Pheasant.

In the air, the Onion Warrior brandished his giant onion sword, a blue sword light gathering at the tip. With a loud shout, he struck the pheasant's body with the giant onion sword.

1302 A knight's duty is to protect his lord!

Boom boom boom——!

"Kichiji!!"

The impact caused a violent explosion, and the shockwave sent both of them flying. They tumbled through the air until they were far away from the battlefield before regaining their footing.

"Kichirō! Kichirō! Kichirō!" At this moment, the angry Kichirō flipped rapidly in the air and unleashed its Cross Poison Blade attack in succession. Dozens of sharp, knife-like cross-shaped poison blades shot out from the tips of its wings, raining down on Ash like a storm.

Faced with this barrage of attacks, Sirfetch'd did not flinch. Despite the pain from Brave Bird's onslaught, he persevered, picked up his shield, and charged toward Ash's location.

"Yamo!"

When it reached Ash, Sirfetch'd raised its shield without hesitation.

Without using the leek sword to cut them down, Sirfetch'd understood that cutting them down might not be enough to eliminate so many cross-shaped poison blades, as they would hit Ash in the back.

It knew Ash's physical abilities, but...

I am a knight!

They wanted to protect their monarch!

"Yam!" Despite being mercilessly struck by the cross-shaped poison blade, Farfetch'd suffered a severe blow, its blood gushing out and staining the grass around it red.

Its shield made of scallion leaves was also covered with scars, but in the face of these injuries, Farfetch'd's face remained resolute, without the slightest hint of retreat or fear.

"Onion Soldiers?!"

"Yamo!"

What is a knight?

Farfetch has always dreamed of becoming a knight.

"Yamo!" A knight is someone who fights to protect the monarch they cherish and the weak who have no power. When you truly value someone and fight to protect them, that power will increase many times over.

"This is?!"

Ash may never have noticed what Sirfetch'd been thinking all this time.

It wanted to become stronger to protect those behind it. It was too weak to protect them, so it tempered itself countless times to become stronger!

If I can't even withstand an attack of this magnitude, then I am truly unworthy of being a knight!

"Yamo!" The Onion Soldier and his shield resisted the cross-shaped poison blades, their resolute expressions undiminished, but rather growing stronger.

"Ferris booger!" Suddenly, Ash's emotions were stirred by the fern, and he couldn't help but shout it out.

“Fargo…” Farfetch’t was drawn to Ash’s attention and turned its head.

Then, I noticed that Ash had his arms outstretched.

"I know Cong Youbing has always worked very hard, and I also understand that Cong Youbing's abilities are more than this!"

A look of complete trust!

"So let's become even stronger! The world's number one spot awaits us!"

Ash, his blood boiling, threw a punch.

He could feel Cong Youbing's burning passion responding to him.

"Let's get stronger together, Farfetch'd, Divine Bird Strike!"

"Yamo!" Onion Warrior endured the relentless onslaught of the rapidly approaching cross-shaped poison blades, locking onto his opponent.

Its body remained in a running posture despite the pain, and the Onion Warrior raised its giant onion sword, its whole body suddenly enveloped by a strong airflow.

As the air currents surged, the Onion Warrior was surrounded by golden streams and particles of light, which danced in the air, shining with dazzling brilliance, while blood gushed from its wounds, yet its momentum remained undiminished.

"Yamo—!" The leek sword of the Farfetch'd soldier, glowing with golden light, pierced through the body of the pheasant, instantly causing an explosion.

"Kichiji! Kichiji! Kichiji!! (How is this possible!!)" The kichi's body turned into countless particles of light in the explosion, the earth shook violently, and the surrounding rocks were shaken up by the shock wave.

"Yamo~!" The Onion Soldier steadily retrieved his Onion Sword amidst the shockwave, while the Jiji Chicken had completely vanished, turning into particles of light that dissipated in the air.

Divine Bird Strike [Flying]: The Pokémon using Divine Bird Strike charges up on the first turn. It unleashes the move on the second turn, dealing damage to the target. Occasionally, it causes the opponent to flinch. It also has a high chance of hitting a critical point.

"Yay! We won! Onion Soldier, you're the best!"

Ash rushed towards Sirfetch'd and grabbed him in one go.

"Yamo~!" Their bodies pressed together, and Congyoubing looked confident and resolute.

Farfetch'd's preferred Fighting-type moves are four times more resistant to Chinchilla, so Ash didn't consider Fighting-type moves.

But Ash didn't expect to be able to defeat Shallot with just Sirfetch'd.

Our own Onion Soldiers are truly amazing!

"I love you the most!" Ash hugged Sirfetch'd and happily confessed his feelings.

"Yam-mo~ Yam-mo~~" Farfetch'd chuckled happily from Ash's arms, then collapsed unconscious in Ash's embrace.

The continuous cross-shaped poison blades had too much impact on the Onion Soldier, and it was difficult for it to withstand the impact.

At this point, Sirfetch'd just feels incredibly grateful to be able to protect Ash.

"Get some rest, Onion Soldier."

Ash covered Sirfetch with rainbow-colored light.

After he had fully recovered, he took out the Poké Ball and recalled Sirfetch'd.

"Seriously... Satoshi's Pokémon is still so unconventional! Just like Satoshi himself."

Ai walked over and looked helplessly at the hot-blooded idiot in front of her.

But she was still very happy inside, feeling blissful to be able to spend time alone with Xiaozhi.

Yay! Time alone with Zhizhi! Love?

Hehehe! Just smelling Zhizhi's fragrance makes my mouth water!

I really want to eat it in one bite!

Let's just take Zhizhi to the hotel now! Let him hand him over...that's fine!

At this moment, Aine stared intently at Ash, all sorts of strange thoughts swirling in her mind.

If I don't take action now, how can I still act tough in front of everyone?! Seeing those pathetic losers like that!

It's time to let the world know about Zhi'ai's relationship!

"Without Xiao Ai and Brimwon, Congyoubing and I would never have been able to resolve this so quickly. Thank you."

Ash put one hand on his hip and responded cheerfully to Ai Yin.

Unlike before, he did not forget the girl beside him at all.

"Um... Zhizhi, what happened? You weren't this gentle with us before."

Suddenly, Ai Yin became uneasy. She pursed her lips and spoke of her unease.

"I'm suddenly so afraid that Zhizhi will leave us."

"Ah..." Xiao Zhi paused.

The most important relationship that led to my improved emotional intelligence during this period is probably related to that incident.

While in the Johto region, Ash sensed an incredible aura flowing through the air.

Although it was almost a split second, Ash wouldn't make a wrong judgment.

More powerful than any opponent he had ever encountered, some kind of terrifying being was being born.

Heroes of the world...

Ash wants to save the world, even if it means sacrificing his life.

1303 I have subdued the Evil Spirit!

The time for the final battle is approaching.

It's true that he may not be able to do everything he wants, but he has fought alongside his Pokémon and girlfriends all the way, helping each other and sometimes encouraging one another.

Ash's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sunny smile. His cheerful expression made Aine's cheeks flush slightly, and her heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

"It's nothing. I just realized that you are very important to me, and I want to do everything I can to protect you, date you, and marry you. It's that simple!"

As a world hero, Ash wants to bring happiness to the world and to his companions.

...

In the end, Aine still couldn't get anything out of Satoshi, but her expression was still quite good.

Dating and marriage! Zhizhi, that's wonderful!

In short, after properly handling the issue of the three companions, Ash and his friends finally had the opportunity to gather together and meet each other.

Sanbaoban's actions have severely damaged its image, to the point that the residents of Beishang Township have lost all the positive perception they once held of it.

"sorry..."

Wu Li also stepped forward and said that the Three Treasures were accidentally created by him.

Although the residents of Beishang Township were filled with anger and wanted to blame Wuli, the gratitude they had once felt for these treasure companions transformed into other forms of resentment.

They realized that without Wu Li, they might still be living in ignorance, so they did not blame Wu Li.

At the same time, the true story of the Egui Pong became known to the residents of Beishang Township, and their attitude towards the Egui Pong began to change, gradually accepting it.

"Ghost... no, Egui Peng, I'm really sorry about what happened before."

"It was all our fault for misunderstanding you."

After realizing their previous misunderstanding, the residents of Beishang Township came to apologize to Egui Peng, expressing their remorse and new understanding.

"Gah..." Faced with this belated apology, Erguipeng was speechless for a moment, unable to express its feelings. And the three masks it had once lost—the angry hearth, the sorrowful well, and the resilient foundation stone—were now returned to it.

"Gasp..."

It gazed at the masks, and tears welled up in its eyes, which shone like stars in the night sky.

“The villagers hate us, so let’s sleep in this cave from now on. I’ll hold you, so you’ll be warmer.”

"I've picked lots of tree fruits, let's eat them together!"

"Look, Evil Pon! Let's wear this mask to the celebration!"

"Everyone seems happy; we're no longer being ostracized!"

"I'm sorry, I can only keep... this one... mask."

The wonderful times spent with its trainer in the past flashed through its mind like scenes from a movie, and those warm memories seemed like they happened just yesterday.

However, reality is cruel; it can never reunite with its trainer.

In endless longing, time quietly slipped away, and hundreds of years had passed unknowingly.

"Clap...clap...clap..."

From the initial flame mask (burning with the flames of anger), it gradually transitioned to the well mask (flowing with tears, bearing sorrow), and then to the foundation stone mask (as firm as a rock, bearing endless pain). Anger gradually transformed into tears that quietly slid down, and then into a deep pain as firm as a rock.

"Gah?!"

Amidst this series of emotional shifts, Erguipeng was shocked to realize that hundreds of years had passed since the death of his trainer.

The tears slowly stopped, and Egui Peng tried hard to suppress his sobs, attempting to return to his indestructible self.
