Chapter 551: Logistics and Exploration Teams, Special Cuisine, and Dragon-type Nemesis!
Chapter 551: Logistics and Exploration Teams, Special Cuisine, and Dragon-type Nemesis!
The next morning, Shizuru received another message from Mewtwo.
【Mewtwo: ...Everyone's been asking me if you're really going to fight against other humans.】
Shizuru slapped his forehead, finally remembering about this matter!
He had been in a rush yesterday and hadn't had the chance to explain the situation to the Pokemon before riding Skyblaze to Sinnoh in search of Reversal Rayquaza.
Now that he had some free time, Shizuru felt he should head to the World Tree and clarify the situation with everyone.
After finishing his work at the ranch, Shizuru set off for the World Tree.
Upon arriving at the Expedition Guild, he received a warm welcome from everyone.
The Pokemon that had come with Mewtwo, those rescued by Shizuru, and those invited by the Heroine Expedition Team all swarmed around him.
Before Shizuru could say a word, the group of Pokemon started chattering excitedly.
Three Milotics hopped on the grass, assuring him, "Mii!" (Shizuru, rest assured for the battle! We'll prepare lots and lots of delicious sushi for you!)
Budew continued, "Chafu." (Yes, we've also gathered many Tree Fruits and stored them in the warehouse.)
The shopkeeper, Mega Bloom, magically produced a large bag of Sacred Ash, "Dafu!" (I've collected the Sacred Ash of Phoenix, all for you!)
Some combat-oriented Pokemon began to showcase their strength to Shizuru.
Charizard released a scorching flame into the sky, Vileplume waved its vine whips in the air, and Blastoise pounded its chest, with the two cannons on its back charging up intense water energy.
Shizuru: "..."
Witnessing this, Shizuru found these Pokemon rather intriguing.
He didn't rush to clarify that he wasn't going to war but smiled and asked, "Have you learned to work together?"
"Pikachu!"
Pikachu nodded vigorously, and Shizuru saw that the group of Pokemon had divided into two teams under Pikachu's leadership.
On the left were Charizard, Blastoise, Vileplume, Nidoqueen, Rapidash, Mewtwo, Tyrantrum, Pikachu, Bidoof, Audino, and a Riding Lamb guided by the Riding Goats.
On the right were Budew, Milotic, Meowth, Staraptor, Pelipper, Nine Lives, Baltoy, Jigglypuff, Meowstic, Jigglypuff...
Shizuru raised his eyebrows in surprise at this division.
Pikachu spoke with high spirits, "Pika Pika Pika!" (We're the Pokemon who will fight alongside you, Shizuru! We've been training hard all this time!)
Shizuru shifted his gaze to the group on the right.
The Jigglypuff happily said, "Lucky~" (We're the support Pokemon! Although we're not good at battling, we can help with food preparation, fruit harvesting, and healing!)
A battle team and a logistics team? A detailed division of labor!
Shizuru was even more astonished.
In just over a year, the Pokemon on the World Tree had evolved into this organized system!
Noticing Shizuru's expression, the Jigglypuff spoke again, "Lucky!" (Let's go check out the warehouse!)
Shizuru raised his eyebrows, curious about how these Pokemon managed their supplies.
"Sure!"
"Lucky~"
Led by the Pokemon, Shizuru walked through the Expedition Guild's Slowpoke Park and soon reached the food storage area.
The larger Charizard and Blastoise stepped forward and opened the doors, and immediately, piles of Tree Fruits, stacked like small mountains, came tumbling out.
Oh no, they overfilled it!
Seeing this, the Unown and Budew, who were responsible for transporting the Tree Fruits, looked regretful. They should have divided the fruits into two batches...
However, the Jigglypuff was delighted and stepped forward to show Shizuru, "Lucky~!"
These Tree Fruits should be enough to feed the hard-working Pokemon for a long time! Witnessing this, Shizuru felt touched.
The Pokemon on the World Tree were all thinking of him!
"The enemy we're about to face is incredibly powerful," Shizuru said.
Hearing this, the group of Pokemon immediately expressed their fearlessness. As long as they worked together, they could overcome any challenge!
Shizuru continued, "It's the god who created this world, known to humans as Creator God Arceus."
The Pokemon in front of him widened their eyes. They had never heard of such a thing and struggled to imagine the terror it implied.
Shizuru seemed to be talking about a very powerful Pokemon...
Charizard: "Roar?" (Could Mewtwo be its opponent?)
Shizuru shook his head. "With just Mewtwo's power, the odds of winning are slim."
Mewtwo: "Mew?" (What about Skyblaze?)
In its mind, Skyblaze was the strongest Pokemon in this world tree.
If even it wasn't enough... Could they still be a match for the Creator God?
Shizuru shook his head again. "No."
Seeing this, a group of Pokemon frowned.
The Creator God... That sounded terrifying...
No matter what, it would be terrible if Shizuru was eaten by that Pokemon!
With this thought, one of the Milotics spoke up, "Mii!" (I'm not scared! If we all work together, we can definitely win!)
Inspired by the Milotic's initiative, the other Pokemon chimed in, expressing their determination: "Let's do it! All together, let's charge!"
Witnessing this, Shizuru couldn't help but feel a mix of laughter and tears.
"Alright, alright. I appreciate your willingness to help, but with the Fertility King and Mewtwo around, there's no need to worry."
Then, Shizuru explained the situation to the group of Pokemon in detail.
"Actually, we're not going to fight Azor. Due to certain reasons, Azor has lost its sanity, and it plans to punish humans. So, we're going to stop it together. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
"Pikachu..." Pikachu murmured.
So, they had misunderstood...
Everyone turned to Kyurem, who had spread this news.
Kyurem immediately became flustered. "I never said Shizuru was going to fight!"
It only mentioned that Shizuru needed help, and lots of Pokemon were required!
Kyurem looked at Dragonite, remembering it had only discussed this with Dragonite.
Dragonite carefully recalled the conversation and realized its mistake.
It thought Shizuru needed many Pokemon because he was going to start a war against humans...
Seeing this, Shizuru immediately understood the situation.
"...Never mind, as long as the misunderstanding is cleared up."
However, the logistics and combat groups were quite interesting.
The Pokemon in the logistics group were responsible for harvesting tree fruits, preparing food, and treating injuries.
The Pokemon in the combat group specialized in battles, guarding the World Tree.
It was a pity that this world didn't have the existence of a mysterious dungeon; otherwise, they could have formed a rescue team and ventured into the dungeon for adventures and rare treasures.
The Pokemon in charge of logistics would only need to stay at the Heroic Adventure Team's headquarters, handling daily tasks and assigning missions.
League Year 201, June 7th, Summer.
The weather gradually became scorching hot. This summer was exceptionally hot, with daytime temperatures reaching 35 degrees Celsius. Most Pokemon in the ranch preferred to stay indoors, unwilling to bear the heat.
Only a small portion of heat-resistant Pokemon continued to run around the ranch as they usually did.
The sky was clear, and the blazing sun baked the earth. Only in the evening did the weather gradually cool down.
It was during this time that the Pokemon would leave their air-conditioned rooms and run to the ranch to enjoy the refreshing breeze.
Taking advantage of the cooler temperature, Shizuru went to the fields, directing a Pidove to use Rain Prayer to help water the crops.
The Pidove happily obliged.
With its efforts, a small patch of dark clouds quickly gathered above the farm, and a light drizzle began to fall, nourishing the sun-baked fields.
Shizuru checked the growth of the crops by the field, planning to pick a few watermelons later to bring back for the Pokemon to enjoy and cool off.
This year's crops were thriving, and Dewy Town had been experiencing favorable weather for the past few years, with bountiful harvests almost every year.
The townspeople attributed this to the Fertility King, but Shizuru knew it was all thanks to the group of Palkia and Pidove living in the World Tree.
In the evening, the underground Pokemon also came out to enjoy the breeze.
A Diglett poked its head out, staying by the field and watching the dark clouds and rain above.
The Saltalamences leaned against each other under a large tree, with a Mismagius sitting on their shoulders, gently swaying its head in a relaxed manner.
Pokemon could be seen all over the ranch.
Shizuru only needed to look up to see Pokemon passing by in his field of vision.
Everyone lived a carefree life here, making friends, sunbathing, and playing together. Just watching this scene made Shizuru feel incredibly happy.
Summer was the perfect season for eating watermelons, and conveniently, the watermelons had just ripened the day before. So, he decided to pick a few watermelons for everyone!
After the Pidove finished watering, Shizuru finally stepped into the watermelon field.
Gogoat followed behind, ready to lend a hand, but its gaze was drawn to the grass not far away.
Beartic was there, diligently practicing its martial arts, perfecting its punches.
"Ah, it's so diligent and hardworking."
Just then, Gogoat suddenly heard Shizuru exclaim softly.
It turned around and saw Shizuru holding a large, ice-blue watermelon from the field.
"Is this a mutated watermelon?"
Information about the watermelon immediately appeared in Shizuru's mind.
【Frozen Watermelon: A special crop, mutated from a regular watermelon. When used in cooking, it may possess some mystical effects.】
"Frozen Watermelon..." Shizuru was surprised by the name of this special crop.
In fact, it had been a while since any useful mutated crops had appeared on the ranch, and although there had been some in the past, most of them were insignificant special crops.
For example, there were peas that could punch, explosive potatoes, and glowing corn...
"Forget it, I'm free now, so I'll just see what effect this watermelon has!"
Shizuru handed the watermelon to Gogoat and picked a few larger ones to take home and cut into pieces.
Then, Shizuru called out, and soon a large group of Pokemon came running.
Shizuru gave the cut watermelon to them, and they happily sat under the eaves, eating the watermelon.
Seeing this, Shizuru smiled slightly and then returned to the kitchen to start preparing the frozen watermelon.
He peeled the watermelon and put it in the juicer. After a short while, a small cup of blue watermelon juice was ready.
Shizuru took a look, and the detailed information about the watermelon juice appeared in his mind.
【Frozen Watermelon Juice (B+): A special drink made from juicing a Frozen Watermelon. The energy contained within may possess some mystical effects.
Effect: Dragon Slayer - Boosts Special Attack against Dragon-type Pokemon. After use, when facing Dragon-type Pokemon, the power of super-effective moves against them will be significantly increased for Dragon, Ice, and Fairy-type Pokemon.
Evaluation: Use this to deal with troublesome Dragon-type Pokemon! It's said to be a favorite of a certain Ice-type Elite Four.】
Shizuru: "..."
Holy crap, Dragon Slayer! Isn't this the ability of Agumon from the neighboring Digital World?
Reading the description of Dragon Slayer, Shizuru was taken aback.
He had thought that only Ice-type Pokemon could benefit from this dish... Could it also work for Fairy and Dragon-type Pokemon?
"It seems that as long as there's a Pokemon that has a type advantage against Dragon-type Pokemon, they can use it." Shizuru muttered.
On the ranch, there were Ice-type Pokemon like Ice Eevee, Blizzaroon, and the Fertility King riding a Rider Blizzaroon.
There were also Fairy-type Pokemon like Fairy Eevee, Mismagius, and Flying Gardevoir.
There were more Dragon-type Pokemon, including Gogoat, Pidove, and Skiddo.
Such a large watermelon only yielded two cups of juice, which wasn't enough to share...
After a moment of thought, Shizuru switched to smaller cups and poured the watermelon juice into them.
He looked at his creation with satisfaction; now there was enough to share! Although the color looked a bit scary...
Five minutes later.
Fairy Eevee, Flying Gardevoir, Ice Eevee, Gogoat, Skiddo, Fertility King, Pidove, and Mismagius gathered around the table, looking at the strangely colored watermelon juice.
Fairy Eevee asked in a soft voice, "Bii Bii?" (Can I become the hero who defeats the evil dragon by drinking this watermelon juice?)
Shizuru was taken aback. "What evil dragon hero?"
Fairy Eevee immediately turned to him. "Bii Bii!" (The story you told me before!) It still remembered clearly that it had chosen to evolve into its current form because it admired the Fairy Eevee in the story who had defeated the evil dragon and saved the town!
Fairy Eevee seemed to be afraid that Shizuru would forget, so it retold the story from its memory.
"Bii Bii Bii!"
Shizuru: "..."
"Of course, I remember. I just didn't understand what you meant at first, but... This should be similar to that Fairy Eevee hero, right? After drinking this watermelon juice, your moves will become more powerful when facing Dragon-type Pokemon."
After all, it was the Dragon Slayer!
Upon hearing this, Fairy Eevee's eyes lit up.
"Bii Bii Bii!"
