Chapter 504: Shaika and Alice

In the Unova Region, at the Twin Dragon City.

The Twin Dragon Gym exudes a majestic aura, its entire structure imbued with a sense of grandeur.

Above the gym, on the left and right, are carvings of two colossal dragon heads.

Perhaps due to their ancient origins or the skill of the sculptor, these dragon heads appear strikingly similar.

In fact, most people who visit the Twin Dragon Gym instinctively perceive them as identical.

However, upon closer inspection, one can discern subtle differences between the two.

Jing He, with just a glance, immediately recognized these dragons as the legendary pair from Unova's ancient tales.

The Real Dragon, Reshiram!

The Ideal Dragon, Zekrom!

This connection to Unova's ancient "Founding Legend" is significant.

As Jing He and his companions arrived at the Twin Dragon Gym, Adek was sound asleep, leaning against the chair, hugging Hoppip, and snoring peacefully.

Jing He was about to wake him up, but Miss Junsha stopped him, suggesting that Adek should rest a bit more.

It was evident that Miss Junsha, despite her dislike for Adek's flirtatious behavior, genuinely respected him as the Unova Champion.

When Adek had stopped them earlier, Miss Junsha could have easily ignored him and driven away.

"Mr. Adek..." Miss Junsha spoke with a hint of regret as they both exited the car.

"I know."

Jing He nodded, glancing at the still-sleeping Adek, his face filled with admiration.

"I've heard about Mr. Adek's situation."

Losing his most important partner, perhaps one who had been by his side for most of his life, was undoubtedly devastating.

Yet, Adek had only become more relaxed, never forgetting his responsibilities as the Champion, even if he no longer wanted to continue.

He persistently sought a worthy successor to ensure Unova's stability after his retirement.

This sense of responsibility, while not as intense as Da Wu's 22-day battle, was still worthy of respect.

"Isn't Jing He Teacher reconsidering Mr. Adek's suggestion?"

Seeing Jing He's acknowledgment of Adek, Miss Junsha asked again, a hint of expectation in her eyes.

The Junsha Clan's recognition of Jing He was not solely due to his tactical assistance or his position as a Superintendent in the International Police, which aligned with the Junsha Clan's system.

Primarily, it was his help for Pokemon that earned their respect.

Whether it was psychological treatment for rampaging Pokemon or aiding trainers and Pokemon in need online, his friendly attitude towards Pokemon was evident.

This empathy deserved recognition and respect.

Of course, his strength and other accomplishments were also crucial factors.

This time, Jing He didn't evade the topic but paused briefly before responding:

"I'm not ready."

On one hand, his strength wasn't sufficient to shoulder such responsibility.

On the other, his mind wasn't prepared for such a commitment.

Adek's invitation was more of a joke, as there had never been a Champion from a different region.

So, Jing He initially brushed it off.

When Miss Junsha asked again, he gave his answer.

Forget about Unova; even the Elite Four of Hoenn and Sinnoh would make him feel unprepared.

In Jing He's opinion, how could a "lazy" person who only wanted to live happily and peacefully with his Pokemon, helping others within his means, take on such a weighty responsibility? Ideals were beautiful, but reality often contradicted them.

"Let's visit Mr. Shaika first."

Jing He took a deep breath, smiled, and headed towards the gym.

Miss Junsha pursed her lips, turning to look back at the car.

At that moment, Adek opened one eye, winking playfully at Miss Junsha, urging her to follow Jing He.

Go for it, use your charm!

Miss Junsha rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"I'm going back! Humph!"

As they approached the gym's entrance, they saw a girl with purple, fluffy hair and a yellow dress storming out, tears glistening in her eyes.

Bang!!

Running hastily with her head down, the girl collided with Jing He, causing him to stumble back a few steps, and she fell to the ground.

Hiss—

Jing He took a deep breath, gently rubbing his abdomen. The collision was quite painful.

Nonetheless, he immediately helped the girl up.

"Are you okay?"

As he assisted her, he noticed her appearance and paused.

Wasn't this Alice?

The female protagonist from the anime "Super Wish," who traveled with Satoshi, aiming to become a Dragon-type Pokemon Master!

However, Alice was still a small child at this moment.

But then Jing He understood why the collision hurt so much.

Among all the female protagonists who had traveled with Satoshi, Alice's physical abilities were undoubtedly among the best. Living in the Dragon's Homeland, she was more like a Dragon's Homeland person than a regular child!

"I...I'm fine."

Alice stood up, looking down, feeling a bit embarrassed for bumping into Jing He.

She looked up at Jinghe and suddenly realized that this older brother was not only handsome but also seemed vaguely familiar.

Tap, tap, tap—

At that moment, the steady footsteps of leather shoes approached, drawing closer and closer.

Hearing the sound, Alice's expression changed, and she turned to run, but then she saw Miss Junsha behind Jinghe and stumbled over her words, "M-Miss Junsha, I, I didn't do anything wrong this time."

Upon seeing Alice, Miss Junsha recognized her and smiled, "Oh, it's Alice."

She bent down and patted Alice's head, seeming very familiar.

This was related to something significant Alice had done recently.

Alice, who came from Dragon Town, followed the advice of her grandmother and Xia Qia, and traveled from Dragon Town to Shuang Long City to attend the Shuang Long Academy founded by Xia Qia.

However, Alice had grown up in the vast natural environment of Dragon Town, and the structured classes and learning in the city's school were not what she desired. It was challenging for her to settle down and focus.

Moreover, most of the students in the school were busy with their studies, and Alice struggled to make friends, feeling lonely and homesick for Dragon Town.

So, Alice climbed to the top of the tallest radio tower in Shuang Long City, hoping to catch a glimpse of Dragon Town from such a high place. However, this caused quite a stir and attracted the attention of Miss Junsha.

Alice became known as a "problem" student at the academy.

Meanwhile, the footsteps finally reached their destination.

The person who appeared before Jinghe and the others was a tall, elderly man with a commanding presence. He wore black gloves, a white shirt, and black pants, and his white hair and beard gave him an austere appearance.

It was none other than the Gym Leader of the Shuang Long Gym and the principal of the Shuang Long Academy, Xia Qia!

Xia Qia's expression was stern, and his eyes were sharp.

Feeling his gaze, Alice instinctively hid behind Jinghe, barely poking her head out from behind his waist.

"Hngga?"

In Jinghe's shadow, Gramps also poked his head out, scratching his head in curiosity.

What was this little girl doing in his spot?

Gramps curiously poked his head out from the other side of Jinghe, mirroring Alice's actions.

"Mr. Xia Qia," Jinghe greeted him with a slight bow.

Xia Qia had also noticed Jinghe and his expression softened slightly, "So, you're Teacher Jinghe?"

"Yes, it's me."

". told me you were coming, but I didn't expect it to be today."

While Xia Qia and Jinghe exchanged greetings.

Teacher Jinghe?

Alice, hiding behind Jinghe, blinked.

As a student of the Shuang Long Academy, although she didn't interact much with her classmates, she often heard the name "Teacher Jinghe" from their conversations.

He was rumored to be the "strongest" teacher, well-loved and respected by the students.

Many even wished that Teacher Jinghe could come to their school and teach them a lesson.

Could this be Teacher Jinghe? Alice wondered, thinking he looked so young.

She turned her head and saw Gramps with a mischievous smile, sticking his tongue out and waving at her.

Feeling the cold aura emanating from Gramps, Alice's face turned pale.

"A ghost!"

She stumbled out from behind Jinghe and hid behind Xia Qia.

Alice was fearless, except when it came to Ice-type Pokemon—she was afraid of the cold. Perhaps this was also related to the fact that Ice-type Pokemon were effective against Dragon-type Pokemon.

To be honest, seeing Alice like this, Jinghe found it hard to imagine that she would one day become the Champion of the Unova Region, succeeding Adak and standing alongside female Champions like Iris and Caitlin.

As Xia Qia and Jinghe conversed, the group entered the Gym under Xia Qia's lead.

"Go and rest first," Xia Qia said to Alice without changing his tone.

"Oh," Alice nodded, stuck out her tongue, and obediently ran off, completely forgetting her earlier statement about going back.

Miss Junsha, after a moment of thought, followed after her. She sensed that Xia Qia and Jinghe might have important matters to discuss, so she tactfully gave them space.

"Mr. Xia Qia, this is what the principal asked me to give you."

Jinghe pried open Gramps's mouth and took out the package.

"Thank you."

Xia Qia thanked him and proceeded to open the package without hesitation, revealing a specially designed box.

Inside the box was a triangular, cone-shaped object with multiple layers.

Seeing this, Jinghe's pupils contracted slightly.

The Genetic Wedge!

The principal had asked him to deliver this, and it turned out to be the Genetic Wedge?! What was the Genetic Wedge?

It was an ancient artifact from the Unova Region, kept in Xia Qia's possession, and not many people knew its purpose anymore.

But Jinghe knew.

The Genetic Wedge was a tool that allowed the legendary Pokemon Zekrom, Reshiram, and Kyurem to fuse or have contact fusion!

It was quite straightforward.

It was about fusion and contact fusion.

In the original story, the Plasma Team froze the entire Shuang Long City to take this item from Xia Qia, intending to force Zekrom and Kyurem to fuse.

The Plasma Team's chief scientist, Akroma, wanted to use this item to complete his Akroma Machine.

However, in the Sun and Moon series, Akroma, with his talent and scientific prowess, successfully developed the Necrozma Fusion Device, which could fuse Necrozma and Solgaleo. He was truly a genius in the scientific world.

But Jinghe never expected that such an important item had been in the hands of his former principal not long ago.

Is the former principal's influence that great?

Noticing Jinghe's change in expression, Xia Qia couldn't help but ask, "Do you know about the 'Genetic Wedge,' Teacher Jinghe?"

"I heard a little about it from Herona before," Jinghe explained.

Previously, Herona had spent some time in Unova searching for Mr. Xia Qia for this very reason.

Hearing this, Xia Qia's expression turned into one of realization, but he didn't think too much of it.

After all, Herona had indeed come to research for a while.

It was just unfortunate that without Zekrom, Reshiram, or Kyurem, this research was destined to remain on the surface.

Xia Qia didn't elaborate further and carefully put away the Genetic Wedge.

After all, if you asked him to explain, he wouldn't have much to say.

"Since you're here, Teacher Jinghe, are you interested in giving a lesson to the students of Twin Dragon Academy?" Xia Qia suddenly asked.

Hmm?

This suggestion caught Jinghe off guard.

"As a teacher, what do you think of that girl from earlier, Teacher Jinghe?" Xia Qia asked again, as if implying something.

The girl, Alice?

"She's a bit reckless," Jinghe replied after a brief pause, setting aside his impression of Alice from the anime. "But she's not a bad person."

Xia Qia nodded.

Then, Xia Qia briefly shared some information about Alice, including her experiences and the reasons for her presence here.

Jinghe asked, "Mr. Xia Qia, do you intend to let her leave the academy?"

This was evident from Xia Qia's calm pursuit of her earlier.

If he truly wanted to keep Alice, he wouldn't have been so composed, and she might have already run away if she hadn't happened to bump into Jinghe.

"The academy isn't suitable for her; it will restrict her development," Xia Qia sighed softly.

Initially, Alice was brought here by Xia Qia, so he naturally didn't want her to leave just like that.

However, his observations led him to realize that with Alice's personality, forcing her to study in the academy would stifle her spirit and make her even more mediocre.

This was the fundamental difference between the academy and travel factions.

The academy faction emphasized gaining extensive knowledge about Pokemon and using that knowledge to establish a strategic advantage.

In contrast, the travel faction focused on the bond between Pokemon and trainers, using the power of that bond to break conventions.

Alice clearly suited Da Ye's style of battling.

"Mr. Xia Qia, don't you think that by letting a child leave in this manner, you might leave her with some psychological shadows?" Jinghe looked at Xia Qia.

For example:

I can't learn well, so I was driven out.

I'm not suitable for studying; I'm the one who was abandoned.

Such negative emotions.

And as it turned out, Alice did carry these emotions with her. When she returned to Twin Dragon City with Satoshi, these emotions erupted.

"But this will also become her motivation," Xia Qia had his own thoughts.

Beating a teacher who once looked down on her and proving her abilities—these were typical cliches of a protagonist's revenge.

Jinghe couldn't help but think to himself.

"But she's still just a child. Even if she can bear it, it doesn't mean she'll do her best. What if she can't withstand such a blow?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Qia fell silent.

After a while, he slowly said, "Alice can do it."

In the end, he did this because he valued Alice and her potential.

This was also a form of trust in Alice.

However, in Jinghe's opinion.

Since you believe she can better showcase her talents and abilities in travel, why not directly tell her, encourage her, acknowledge her, and support her?

Wouldn't it be better to approach a task with self-confidence than with a "revenge" mindset? He didn't even give Alice the choice.

On the other hand, Jinghe preferred to think from the perspective of others.

For example, when training Pokemon.

He often trained them based on their individual characteristics, personalities, and preferences.

Instead of rigidly following a set pattern, insisting on specific training methods or battle strategies.

Although Gengui was a Special Attack-type Pokemon, if it enjoyed boxing, Jinghe would still explore and develop its abilities in that area.

It might not be the best approach.

But Gengui enjoyed it.

From this perspective.

In reality, both Teacher Jinghe and Teacher Xia Qia had different ideas in this regard.

This aligned with the "characteristics" of Twin Dragon City.

However, Xia Qia wasn't rigid; he felt that Jinghe's perspective also made sense.

"Give the students a lesson?" Xia Qia asked this question again.

This wasn't a challenge of "if you can do it, then do it."

Instead, it was a way to test and validate the practical differences resulting from their contrasting ideologies.

Initially, Jinghe was somewhat reluctant, but now.

Jinghe adjusted his single-sided glasses and replied, "Okay."

As for how to validate it.

It was quite simple.

The two of them would battle.

Educating students and training Pokemon were quite similar.

You could sense the differences through Pokemon training and battles.

At the same time.

Since it was a Pokemon academy, there was no better way to provide a more intuitive experience for the students than by letting them watch a battle.

This was something both teachers understood without needing to say it.

"Huh?"

Adeke, who was in the car, woke up and blinked.

Jinghe was going to battle Xia Qia.

This immediately piqued his interest.

"Let's go! Let's watch!" Adek hurriedly got up, causing the lady next to him, Junsha, to roll her eyes.

However.

Junsha's interest was also piqued.

After all.

Mr. Xia Qia's abilities were far beyond those of an ordinary Gym trainer.
