Wavebreaker.
This is a cruise ship that leads directly from the Kuye City Pier in the Kanto region to the Battle Development Zone.
At this moment, on the deck, Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, and Xiaolan were leaning side by side on the railing, blowing the sea breeze, and watching the cruise ship break through the waves.
After returning home, Xiaogang packed his luggage a little and soon met up with Xiaozhi again.
Recently, even Xiaogang's mother returned to Nibi Gym, which was quite lively.
It's just that Gang Ma, who is good at water attributes, directly transformed the Nibi Gym into an aquarium. This is completely contrary to Gang Dad, who is a rock attribute. At this moment, the entire gym was in a state of panic.
But these Xiaogang are too lazy to care.
The two adults were there, and his younger brother had grown up, so Nibi Gym no longer needed him to worry.
Unlike him, Xiaogang's younger brother Jiro is a Pokémon fighting madman and is very suitable to be the gym leader.
As for Xiaolan.
"After this trip is over, I will go out to practice with Sister Bilan!"
Xiaolan clenched her fists and said full of energy:
"Xiao Zhi, you are so powerful now, I can't lose!!"
Xiaolan has been traveling with Xiaozhi, and Xiaolan has basically never made a few moves, and has been completely reduced to a background.
Even Xiaolan knows that she is still in the growing stage and is not suitable for traveling with Xiaozhi.
"Yeah..."
Xiaozhi shook his head regretfully, and then looked at the endless ocean.
Then in the next Sinnoh region, only he and Xiaogang will be traveling together.
He is not a person who can endure loneliness, but still hopes to travel lively with a group of people.
So when a Shota was added to the team, Xiaozhi was also quite happy.
"No matter, let's talk about the future in the future."
The cruise ship has been driving for several hours, and we can already see the land ahead in the distance, which is the battle development area in the southern part of the Fangyuan region!
...
...
Boarding the pier of the battle development area, Xiaozhi spread his hands and took a deep breath.
This place can hardly be regarded as an island anymore, it has a huge territory.
Just like the Orange Islands in the southern part of the Kanto region... the Battle Zone is more like connecting all the islands of the Orange Islands into a new land.
"Pica...?"
After getting off the boat, Pikachu stayed on Xiaozhi's shoulder, fearing that he would be stabbed inexplicably again as soon as he landed.
It took a lot of effort to regain its peak strength, but it doesn’t want to try again!
clatter.
Pikachu tried to land boldly. After a while, he didn't feel any discomfort, and then he felt relieved.
"Is it because that stabbing was just an accident?"
"Is it still a battle against the pioneering area? It still belongs to the Fangyuan area?"
Xiaozhi and the others couldn't help but discuss.
This weird sword is completely a double-edged sword. Sacrifice your current strength in exchange for making your future self stronger... It can't be said to be a completely bad thing.
At least the current Pikachu is much more powerful than the one at the Silver Conference.
...
"Oh oh oh~! Xiaozhi from Zhenxin Town, you are finally here~!!"
At this time, a person walked up to the shore and exclaimed.
The visitor was a short, fat uncle, wearing a blue beach shirt and casual shorts with large flowers, curly brown hair, and a pair of round-frame sunglasses on his smiling face, looking quite festive.
"Who are you...?"
Xiaozhi and the other three were slightly surprised. This person seemed a bit unreliable.
"My name is Yashida~ I am a friend of Dr. Ohki... I gave you three of your tickets for this trip~!"
Yashida explained with a smile, and then looked at Xiaozhi with a surprised look on her face, without concealing her admiration.
"It's really incredible. At such a young age, he has already defeated Mikri... What a young man you are today~!"
He watched the entire Caiyou Conference in full and was also shocked by Xiaozhi's strength.
Seeing that several people were still stunned, Yaxida handed out a leaflet to each of them.
There are seven buildings of different shapes painted on it, with seven people standing next to each building, which looks like a challenge.
Yaxida suddenly pushed up her sunglasses and said seriously:
"How about Xiaozhi, it's rare to come to our battle zone once. Are you interested in dominating the battle zone...?"
"Dominate the pioneering area?"
Xiaozhi looked at the flyer and didn't fully react yet.
This time when he came to the Battle Development Zone, he just came to see Mr. Jindai and obtain the token of God from the Three God Pillars.
It seems that there is something similar to a gym challenge here?
"This is much harder than the gym challenge!"
As if she had guessed what Xiaozhi was thinking, Yaxida said proudly.
He is the person in charge of the battle development area and is responsible for the revenue of this area.
It’s just that in recent years, the limelight has been stolen by the Fangyuan main region in the north. Gym challenges and alliance conferences are in full swing...
After all, it is an established Pokémon League. It competes head-on, and its popularity is not the same order of magnitude at all.
This also led to their increasingly lonely battle in the development zone, and they urgently needed to find a way to attract attention from all over the world and come back to life.
After watching the Caiyou Conference, Yaxida instantly had an idea.
He also contacted Dr. Oak immediately after the game and was even more delighted to learn that Xiaozhi and the others were coming to fight against the pioneers. He immediately promised to take care of all the food, clothing, housing and transportation for these people during this period, and also gave them special cruise tickets.
All meals and accommodation are provided according to the highest standards!
"How about Xiaozhi, do you want to try to challenge the seven battle facilities while traveling? The power of the seven brain-expanding people is more powerful than the gym leaders you know!"
Seeing the movement in Xiaozhi's eyes, Yaxida continued to speak.
Defeating the league champion Mikri head-on, and having five legendary Pokémon at his fingertips... Now Ash's popularity in the Fangyuan area is at its peak!
If he came to challenge them to play against the pioneer zone, Yaxida could naturally videotape the whole process and rub off on Ash's popularity.
Then send out the exciting battle scenes, which will definitely attract the attention of the entire Fangyuan region and the Kanto region, attracting countless trainers or tourists to flock here!
You must know that they are facing the pioneer zone, they lack nothing, the only thing they lack is reputation.
"Expand your mind..."
Xiaozhi looked at the seven people on the flyer. They all looked very strong.
This is not something Yashida is bragging about.
These seven people started out as top gym leaders...the upper limit can even reach the strength of the king of the alliance, or even the champion!
"Is it so strong..."
After listening to Yashida's advocacy, Xiaozhi immediately tightened the leaflet in his hand and finally said in a deep voice:
"In that case, then I will dominate this pioneer area!"
It just so happens that he still has some time now, so he came here specifically, so naturally he has to play a few games!
