Chapter 471: Adeku: I Endorse Life Milk!
Chapter 471: Adeku: I Endorse Life Milk!
Naoki gratefully accepted the precious gift that Daigo had bestowed upon him. However, it was a bit unfortunate that none of the Pokemon on the ranch could utilize the Mega Stone at present. While there was an Eweep at the World Tree, it still had a long way to go before it could evolve into an Electrigon.
Moreover, simply possessing a Mega Stone wasn't enough for a Pokemon to undergo mega evolution. The trainer also needed to have a Key Stone, which Naoki didn't have, and the relationship with the Eweep wasn't that of a trainer and their Pokemon.
For now, the stone could only be kept as a collection or saved for future trades when mega evolution became a common occurrence.
"..."
The only issue was that none of the ranch's Pokemon could mega evolve. This thought always left Naoki feeling a bit disappointed.
He wished that his Rayquaza, Garchomp, and Barboach had their respective Mega Stones. But while the imagination was a wonderful thing, reality could be cruel.
Such stones didn't exist in this world.
Oh well!
Since Daigo had given him such a gift, Naoki decided to return the favor with some specialty products from his ranch!
"By the way, how's your Gigantic Ore?" Naoki asked, referring to the Pokemon that had simultaneously challenged both Groudon and Kyogre.
Daigo was a bit surprised by Naoki's question, but he replied, "That battle left it severely injured. Fortunately, we were able to treat it in time, and the Gigantic Ore has now fully recovered."
"Oh!" Naoki stood up and retrieved a box of Life Milk from the warehouse, placing it in front of Daigo.
Daigo's face was filled with astonishment. "This is..."
"This is a specialty product from my ranch," Naoki explained. "It can instantly heal severely injured Pokemon, no matter how heavy the damage. Since you're a trainer, I assume you engage in Pokemon battles daily?"
"Y-yes," Daigo stammered, his mouth agape in disbelief.
Naoki didn't elaborate further. He simply smiled and said, "Take it! Perhaps one day you'll find it useful."
Unable to refuse such a generous offer, Daigo accepted the box of milk.
As he had some loose ends to tie up in the Hoenn region, Daigo didn't linger for long. After delivering the gift, he embarked on his return journey, cradling the box of milk.
Meanwhile, back at Naoki's ranch...
Naoki gazed at the two suitcases filled with cash, at a loss for words.
President Volk's gift was indeed simple and straightforward...
On Daigo's private jet...
Daigo opened the packaging and noticed the chibi illustration of a riding sheep on the glass jar, along with a small string of words below it.
"Life Milk..." Daigo murmured, reading the name aloud.
The name seemed vaguely familiar, so he took out his Rotom Phone and performed a search.
Soon, numerous news articles about this milk popped up on the search engine.
["Astonishing! A 70-year-old man drank Life Milk and..."]
["Terrifying! The effects of Life Milk are ridiculously over-the-top, akin to a revival medicine from games!"]
["Highly Recommend Life Milk! My Pokemon was severely injured in a battle, and we didn't have time to reach a Pokemon Center in the wild. Thankfully, Life Milk saved my Pokemon from peril!"]
At the bottom, Daigo even stumbled upon an interview video, and the person being interviewed was someone he knew very well.
The man had fiery red hair, a rebellious sense of fashion, and a towering stature.
He clicked on the video.
A female reporter was interviewing Adeku.
【Female Reporter: Wow, Mr. Adeku! I'm truly shocked. Your Volcarona has recovered to its peak condition, and as far as I know, it had an incurable disease before! How did you manage that?!】
【Adeku: Haha! It's all thanks to Naoki Ranch's Life Milk. Volcarona's life was nearing its end, but fortunately, Naoki from Naoki Ranch offered us help at that time. After drinking the Life Milk, Volcarona's body recovered!】
【Female Reporter: Life Milk from Naoki Ranch? Wow! It sounds like it has some incredible effects!】
【Adeku: That's right! The specialty Life Milk from Naoki Ranch. If you want to drink it, just place an order at their small shop!】
Daigo: "..."
What's with this strong advertising style?!
Daigo had heard some rumors about Adeku's Volcarona before.
It was said that the Volcarona had suffered severe injuries, and with modern medical technology, it couldn't be cured.
But now, not only had its strength recovered to its peak, but it had also made a breakthrough.
Thinking of this, Daigo looked at the box of Life Milk in front of him and suddenly realized how precious this milk was.
He opened a shopping app and searched for Naoki Ranch's small shop. He clicked on it and found that the Life Milk was already sold out.
"Is it limited in quantity due to its popularity?" Daigo muttered.
He tried to place an order, but the app showed that the shop did not support cross-region delivery at the moment.
Daigo: "..."
However, the interface refreshed automatically, and to his surprise, Daigo found that the delivery area now included the Hoenn Region!
Daigo was slightly taken aback.
What was going on?
Meanwhile, a notice was posted in the Naoki Ranch's small shop.
【Naoki Ranch's Shop: Good afternoon, dear customers! Starting today, our shop will officially lift the ban on the Hoenn Region delivery route! If there's anything you wish to purchase, you can place your orders now!】
This announcement caused quite a stir.
Some netizens from other regions suddenly discovered that Dragonite Express now supported delivery services to the Hoenn Region!
What did this mean?
It's blatant discrimination!
Some people rushed to the shop's message board, demanding that the shop owner open delivery routes to other regions as well. They also wanted to experience the convenience of Dragonite Express!
However, they received a reply from the shop owner:
【Dear customers, we apologize for any inconvenience caused. But for the safety of our Dragonite delivery personnel, we temporarily do not support delivery services to other regions.】
As soon as this reply was posted, some people started to get out of line.
Was the Naoki Ranch's shop only opening the Hoenn Region delivery route because the evil organization there had been eradicated?
But there weren't any bad guys in their regions, so why hadn't the shop owner lifted the ban on their areas?
Netizens from the Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos regions had similar thoughts.
The netizens from the Kanto and Johto regions were quite aware of the situation.
Many people living in those two regions had heard rumors about Team Rocket.
The members of that organization were particularly fond of stealing or taking Pokemon from traveling trainers, especially rare Pokemon that were seldom seen.
So, the Kanto and Johto netizens wisely kept quiet.
