Pokémon: Hoenen Rage

Chapter 286 A Mixture of Wildness and Civilization (45)

"Then why didn't you go south? I don't think you are very afraid of death."

"My mother is still here, so I can't go."

"Where? The beach before?"

"Yes, I kept food for half a month."

"You don't have food to eat yourself, what do you have left?"

"Wild vegetables."

".I understand. When the matter here is settled, you can go find your mother with the money."

"it is good."

There were no words along the way. Driven by the air current, one hour later, the group arrived at the first of the seven islands in the Northwest Islands, which is called Coconut Island by the locals.

Before landing, Lai carefully explored the situation in the distance. Compared to the barren land, there were quite a lot of people on the island. Not far from the beach, there was a dense area of ​​houses, but they were generally very simple. , not much different from the prefabricated houses on the other side.

But judging from the living conditions of the residents on the island, although they are poor and have enough food per person, the neighbors seem to be quite harmonious.

It doesn’t necessarily look like it’s going to be difficult.

With this thought in mind, Lai directed the big-billed gull to land on the ground, and several people walked towards the village. Before they had taken a few steps, they were stopped by a few young men in simple clothes and lean bodies.

"Village cultivator, didn't the leader say that you are not allowed to come back? Why are you bringing outsiders with you?"

The young man at the head was slightly stronger and seemed to be relatively well-nourished. Faint muscle lines could be seen through his clothes.

He looked at Murakami and Rai with unkind expressions, and the hands of several people behind him were also on the elf balls, ready to attack at any time.

"I am the guide for these people. If they come to the village, I will lead the way and earn money."

Murakami seemed indifferent. He was driven out of his home to fend for himself. He could do anything as long as it was to survive and support his mother.

"Outsiders are not welcome here, leave immediately!"

After giving Murakami a hard look, the young man looked at Rai with a cold tone and gave him an ultimatum.

"We are traveling here to visit the leader of your village, and we hope it will be convenient for you."

Rai didn't plan to start a war rashly, but he also wouldn't give up on his plan just because of a few words.

"Stop talking nonsense with them, brother, drive them out!"

Before the young man at the head could say anything, a young man behind him who looked about the same age as Murakami lost his temper and released a coconut egg tree and launched an attack.

Coconut egg trees are the reason why Coconut Island got its name. Coconut egg trees are the only place in the northwest islands where they live. They are loyal companions of the people on the island, but because they are so few in number, only the best among their peers have the chance to find them. They form a partnership.

"Let me do it, the one-headed dragon hasn't fought much yet."

Huayue took a few steps forward and stood in front of Lai and Naqi.

"Single-headed dragon, use Ghost Face first, then charge forward and bite it into pieces!"

As one of the best-qualified Pokémon in Meteor, the energy level of Solo Dragon has reached level 38, and all its skills have been trained very well. It faced the Coconut, which was less than level 30 and still a little malnourished. Egg tree, it follows the scent to find its opponent and starts to fight back.

A black ghostly face appeared behind the coconut tree, then merged into its body, frightening it so much that it couldn't move forward.

Immediately afterwards, the single-headed dragon rushed forward quickly, directly knocking the coconut tree to the ground, and then bit it, making it scream again and again, completely losing its will to resist.

"stop!"

The leading young man just reacted to the sudden change, shouted, and released an iron-clawed lobster to attack the single-headed dragon.

"Buzz Bat, use air slash, then attack with wings!"

Because of being older, the energy level of the humming bat is a little higher than that of the single-headed dragon, and it just broke through the gymnasium level not long ago.

Relying on the difference in strength, the two sharp blades formed by compressing the air slashed at the Iron Claw Lobster, causing it to flinch.

Before the iron-clawed lobster could react, the buzzing bat's wings cut through its body, knocking it out of combat capability on the spot.The sound of the battle attracted the attention of everyone in the village. A group of people quickly rushed over and released different Pokémon to attack the three of them.

When facing outsiders, they are particularly united, and they are particularly fierce because of their hostility.

Seeing more and more people approaching, even if they don't want to make things worse, there is no room for maneuver unless they run away now.

"The giant swamp monster, the tide aura is fully activated."

In the midst of the lightning, Lai decided to strike hard and shock everyone.

"Ka-mo-"

The huge blue beast landed on the ground, with an aura as deep as a prison and as terrifying as an abyss, overwhelming the villagers and Pokémon who were attacking. The powerful pressure swept over them, making them unable to breathe.

The few young people closest to Lai suffered the most direct impact, as if they were facing their natural enemies, small animals, every hair on their head stood on end, and every cell tried their best to sound the alarm.

In the great fear, they couldn't even find the courage and strength to turn around and flee, so they could only stand stiffly in place.

The villagers in the distance also stopped and confronted each other from a distance.

Where does such great hostility come from?

Lai couldn't understand that as an outsider, he hadn't done anything yet. Even his counterattack was full of restraint, but he still allowed so many indigenous people to unite and besiege them.

He stood with Naqi and Hanazuki, protecting the weak village repair behind him.

The situation was at a stalemate for a while. The villagers knew that the people on the opposite side were powerful and did not dare to move forward. However, the power from unknown sources also prevented them from retreating.

Although Lai and the others were powerful, they were unwilling to take action against ordinary people, and he had seen their kind side before. After experiencing rough and hostile incidents, he still wanted to figure out the cause and find a solution.

Finally, not long after, the messenger brought the leader of the village.

"Hopefully this is someone who can communicate."

Looking at the middle-aged man walking quickly in the distance, Lai whispered to his friends.

If this leader is also the type who attacks indiscriminately, they can only defeat the opponent first, and then talk about other things.

"Go to the village and clear out the open space. Don't block it here! I want to fight with their leader Dueel!"

The middle-aged man had a high-pitched voice, but what he said was unexpectedly useful. The villagers who were still standing tightly in several rows immediately dispersed and rushed to the village, greeting other people along the way.

"Outsiders, we don't welcome outsiders here, especially people from Fengyuan. However, if you can defeat me in Duel, you can become a warrior and honored guest in the village, and you can stay. ”

Seeing that the people were almost dispersed, the middle-aged man looked at Lai.

"Do you have the guts?"

"What is Duel?"

Len asked rhetorically.

"A duel determines victory or defeat, but it can also be a duel of life and death."

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

"Duel to the death."

This is a quite old word, and it is quite unfamiliar to the modern Hoenn region, but in this village, it seems to be accepted and even welcomed by everyone.

"Specific rules."

"There are no rules. One person, one Pokémon. You can change at any time. You can admit defeat, or one of the person and Pokémon loses the ability to fight."

"An indiscriminate battle? Okay, I'm going to do it next."

"Oh? Young man, although you are very strong, this is not your house."

"Maybe it's a bit boastful, but I'm quite confident in the indiscriminate battle. Please lead the way."
