Chapter 336: The Three Kings of Sinnoh!
Chapter 336: The Three Kings of Sinnoh!
Kamiwa Town.
Sharon's Home.
"You can stay in the same room as before; I haven't touched most of the things in there."
Sharon sat on the sofa with her knees hugged, her bare feet as white as snow, wiggling like little fish.
"Okay."
It was convenient, after all, having stayed there once before. Jinghe, on his second visit, was already familiar with the place.
After putting his luggage away in the room, he stepped out to find Sharon looking at him with a pitiful expression.
Who could resist that gaze, that posture? But considering Bite Shark's sidelong glance and Lucario's faint aura, Jinghe clenched his teeth and said sternly:
"The money is extra!"
"Okay~~" Sharon agreed obediently.
"Hmph!"
After a cold huff, he skillfully grabbed the apron from the wall and put it on, asking, "What do you want to eat?"
Sharon, playing with her phone, lifted her head, blinked her eyes, and showed a thoughtful and hesitant expression.
Jinghe touched his forehead.
He shouldn't have asked.
Asking a person with decision-making difficulties to choose food meant that by the time she decided, it would be time to think about what to eat for breakfast the next day.
"Noodles?"
Noodles were the fastest and simplest option.
Moreover, Jinghe guessed that Sharon's home probably didn't have many ingredients to work with.
At that moment,
Jinghe's phone suddenly beeped twice, indicating a bank transfer of 100,000 League Dollars.
Tsk.
"Then let's have noodles," Sharon said.
Jinghe's face lit up with a smile, and he said, "Please wait a moment, customer."
After saying this, he hummed a tune and walked into the kitchen with Rotom.
"Lo, Lo-To?"
With a salary, his motivation soared.
"Lu-Ka?"
Sharon's Lucario looked at the approaching Coalomass, showing a hint of confusion.
Buzz—
But soon, Coalomass's aura slowly dissipated, allowing Lucario to realize what was happening.
It was time for a lesson? Coalomass, with his sincere desire to learn, was always welcome, just like when he taught Gigaforg. Lucario enjoyed being a teacher.
Gramps pulled Bite Shark aside.
"Hehehe~~"
With a mischievous look, it glanced at the direction of the kitchen, making sure Jinghe and Rotom were busy. Then, it cautiously asked, "Sister Shark, what's our plan for tonight?"
Upon hearing this, several of the smaller Pokemon in the room perked up their ears.
It had been a long time since they had a night activity! In Kanaz City, they had already encountered most of the wild and stray Pokemon.
Who didn't know the name "Sunglasses Gramps"? This was a rare opportunity to visit the resource-rich Crown Mountain, and they couldn't miss the chance to have some fun.
"Hmph!"
Bite Shark let out a cold huff and shot a sidelong glance at Gramps, revealing a sinister smile.
"You'll see what we're up to at midnight."
Soon,
Jinghe emerged carrying two steaming bowls of udon noodles. Sharon sniffed, instantly feeling refreshed, and sat down at the dining table.
In the winter, with the proximity to Crown Mountain, the temperature was already low. A simple bowl of mixed udon was the best way to eliminate fatigue and dispel the cold.
As soon as Jinghe put down the bowls, he immediately said:
"I'm starting!"
Jinghe shook his head.
Noticing Gramps's gaze, he sighed and said, "The fridge is empty. Making these two bowls was already a challenge. If you want, you can have it."
"Huh?" Gramps scratched his head.
In that case, you can have it.
"Me? I'll just have some Energy Cubes."
Bite Shark & Lucario: ???
Then, Jinghe took out the Energy Cubes and distributed food to each of the Pokemon, including Sharon's Pokemon.
Soon, the little ones started chowing down.
In the end, Gramps didn't manage to snatch Jinghe's noodles because he was afraid Jinghe would take his Energy Cubes.
Sharon ate slowly, but the noodles disappeared at a visibly fast pace, which was quite strange.
After finishing the last sip of soup, she blushed slightly and burped.
Noticing Jinghe's gaze, her face turned even redder, and she quickly changed the subject, "I heard that Rotom Pokemon are becoming more common?"
Jinghe withdrew his gaze. "They should be. The Rotom Island was discovered, right?"
Back when he played the game and first encountered Rotom, he had thought it was a Legendary Pokemon.
After all, back then, the Galaxy Gang's Pluto had plotted against Mars for a single Rotom.
As a result,
Jinghe turned to look at his own Rotom, who was happily eating batteries and Energy Cubes.
"Lo-To? (っ)"
Sensing the gaze, Rotom lifted its head from the food bowl, its body still shimmering with electricity.
"It's fine."
"Lo-To~~"
Rotom nodded in confusion, continuing to eat.
"No wonder," Sharon said. "Recently, they've launched some Rotom devices, including a Rotom Fruit Blender."
"A Rotom Fruit Blender?"
"It's said to improve the quality of Fruit Blends."
That was indeed a great item.
"How much does it cost?"
"Hmm," Sharon shook her head. "I'm not sure. Probably a few million?"
Jinghe was taken aback.
Well, he thought, an ordinary Fruit Blender is good enough. The one at home, although only worth about a hundred thousand, is quite handy, and the Energy Cubes it produces are well-liked by the little Pokemon.
After the late-night snack, Jinghe and Sharon continued chatting for a while before they yawned and went to sleep.
For the little ones, the night's revelry was about to begin.
The next morning, at dawn...
"Kuuuu!" Bear Apprentice bowed repeatedly towards the Crown Mountain, his face filled with reverence.
"Thank you, oh great nature, for your gifts. I can't repay you, but I'll give you a bow!" Jinghe: "..."
No need to guess.
The wild Pokemon around Crown Mountain near Kamiwa Town were probably in for another "barren" winter.
Jinghe made himself a cup of coffee and opened the window, letting in a refreshing morning breeze that invigorated his spirits.
The winter sun was warm, and the occasional light snow on Crown Mountain added a unique charm to the scene.
On the refrigerator, Jinghe found a note left by Sharon.
She had gone to the Sacred Valley Historical Institute early to research, allowing Jinghe to explore Kamiwa Town on his own.
The training ground was located in an open space south of the house, equipped with various training facilities.
"I'll have breakfast and then do some simple training," Jinghe thought to himself, feeling delighted.
He opened the door and stepped outside, feeling the warmth of the sun on the soft grass beneath his feet.
Just as he was about to sigh in appreciation, Jinghe's movement paused, and he turned to look at the side.
There, under a tree, stood three individuals, their faces filled with shock as they stared at him.
"From... from Big Sister's house!" Daye, with his spiky hair and wide-open eyes, stuttered.
A Liu, with his tuft of hair standing up, seemed to realize something, and his tuft of hair stood up even straighter.
"It's Teacher Jinghe!"
Wusong's mouth twitched, and he turned his head, covering one side of his face with his hand, muttering, "I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything."
Jinghe also paused for a moment.
These were three of the future Four Kings of the Sinnoh region, weren't they?
Sage King Wusong, Flame King Daye, and Dull King A Liu. Cough, Psychic King Wusong, Fire King Daye, and Bug King A Liu.
How did they get here?
Jinghe remembered.
The last time he was in Kamiwa Town, he had encountered Daye and Wusong.
However, it was late in the day, and Daye was eager to challenge Sharon, so they didn't have a chance to talk.
So, they must be here to find Sharon.
"Sharon went to the Sacred Valley Historical Institute early this morning," Jinghe said.
Daye's eyes widened even more, and he took a deep breath.
"Damn, she knows everything I do, even this early in the morning."
This was hard to explain, right?
A Liu also became more excited and said, "It's Teacher Jinghe!"
Jinghe: "..."
He instinctively looked at Wusong and gave him a sympathetic glance.
It must be tiring to hang out with these two, right? Wusong also understood Jinghe's gaze and immediately became "teary-eyed."
A kindred spirit!
A late acquaintance!
However, Wusong didn't know that Jinghe's sympathy didn't end there. Once they became the Four Kings and Sharon became the Champion, Wusong would truly understand.
"Teacher Jinghe!" Daye suddenly shouted, startling Jinghe.
Even the Gramps, who was still sleeping in the room, was startled by the shout and fell from the ceiling.
Gramps, looking indignant, emerged from the wall and pointed at Daye, cursing.
"Hngga!! (Д)σ"
So early in the morning, and they're already shouting!
However, Daye seemed not to notice and continued, "Let's battle!"
"Hngga?"
Gramps scratched his butt and looked at Jinghe.
Who is this guy with such a cringey attitude?
Jinghe's mouth twitched.
"How would I know?"
Daye put his hands in his pockets and walked up to Jinghe, inviting him again, "Let's have a battle, Teacher Jinghe!"
"No," Jinghe declined decisively.
He generally didn't enjoy battling with trainers like Daye, who could easily go into a frenzy.
Once they entered that state, tactics and strategies became useless, and it was a pure test of raw power.
In the future Sinnoh region, only Sharon would be able to rely on her raw power to suppress Daye.
Even the Ground-type King Kikyo, whose attribute was advantageous against Daye, wouldn't dare claim a guaranteed victory against him.
"Huh?" Daye was taken aback.
It was rare for his invitation to be declined.
In the Pokemon world, trainers rarely refused battles unless there was a significant difference in strength.
Jinghe was the second person to do so.
The first was Wusong.
Jinghe's refusal instantly made Wusong respect him even more.
A true kindred spirit!
"So, what are you planning to do, Jinghe?" Wusong asked.
Jinghe looked around.
"Train, of course."
It was hard to find a suitable training ground, so why not make the most of it? With Sharon's financial resources, even if some damage occurred, she probably wouldn't mind.
"Is there a better way to train than battling?" Daye also asked.
Hmm? Jinghe looked at Gramps, and Gramps looked back at him.
"Hngga~~"
What Gramps said seemed to make sense.
