Pokémon: Hoenen Rage

Chapter 758 Postscript [-]: Development in Progress

Southwest of Wudou Town, off the coast of Fengyuan, there is an unnamed island.

"Tap, tap, tap"

The special combat boots made a soft sound as they stepped on the soft beach.

The brisk pace shows the physical fitness and mental state of the owner of these combat boots.

Apart from him, there seemed to be no other intelligent creatures on this island with dense vegetation.

From the beach to the edge of the island's woods, the intervals between the sounds of combat boots hitting the ground gradually lengthened and became heavier.

"whoosh"

At the edge of the woods, a heavy object shot out of the air and landed somewhere in the forest.

"Zizzi"

Accompanied by a soft sound, an unknown mist gradually spread, and drifted far away along the sea breeze.

"Boom--"

"coming."

Hearing the roaring footsteps in the distance, the handsome young man smiled slightly, took out a few elf balls, and then inserted a few metal pieces into the specially designed pocket on his waist.

Mount Tai collapsed in the front without changing its color, and the elk flourished in the left without blinking.

This sentence could not be more appropriate to describe the young man in front of him.

The sound moved from far to near, and the owner of the sound gradually revealed his true face.

A group of powerful Pokémon that should be rare in Hoenn, but are relatively common in Johto: Crocodile.

"Oh? Is it actually Crocodile? That's good. We can set up a small protected area later and see if it can enrich the initial Pokémon choices for new trainers."

The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously a little surprised, but it was fleeting and turned into joy.

"Leave it to you, Big-billed Gull and Thorny Dragon King!"

"Boom"

The white light burst.

The strong-bodied big-billed gull hovered high in the sky, and the clear sky turned into clouds in an instant, and heavy rain poured down.

The two Spiny Kings, one big and one small, looked forward calmly, not paying any attention to the few quasi-King Pokémon who were rushing forward.

"Axun, hot water! Arui, meteor swarm!"

During the heavy rain, the overwhelming scorching water poured down the powerful crocodiles in agony, and less than half of them suffered minor burns. This was the result of the young man's mercy.

Taking advantage of the gap between the giant crocodiles, the meteorite had also condensed in mid-air. With a wave of the young man's hand, it suddenly fell down, shattering the giant crocodile's line into pieces.

The few powerful individuals that could barely maintain their fighting power rushed forward and wanted to fight at close range, but they found a powerful mega swamp monster standing in front of the two spiny dragon kings.

"bang bang bang"

After several muffled sounds, there were only traces of battle left in the woods, and wild Pokémon passed out on the ground.

"The wild Pokémon on the island have been dealt with. The first brigade escorted the scientific expedition team to the island, the second brigade detoured to the north of the island to guard, and the third brigade cleaned the battlefield, treated injured Pokémon, and collected material samples."

After the battle, the young man took out all the metal pieces from his pocket, carefully stuffed them back into his backpack, then took out his communicator and started giving orders.

"Yes, Division Chief."

On the other side of the communicator, the long-awaited offshore development force of the Southwest Division of the Hoenn Alliance also took action. The troops were divided into three groups and controlled the island according to the predetermined plan.

"You're doing well, Zhijiu. You're getting more and more impressive. You don't even need my help. How about I take everyone to the next stop?"

In mid-air, a Scorpio King twice the size of its kind slowly fell down. The purple-haired man strode up to Zhijiu and patted him on the shoulder.

"Then you go ahead, Brother Hills. I estimate that the scientific expedition team will work here for a while. Their energy detector shows that there is a mine or something else here that needs to be developed. We have to protect it here. them."

Zhijiu nodded, pointed at the researchers who were slowly coming down from the ship behind, and shrugged.

"It's not bad if we can really gain something. In the past ten years, we have basically explored the islands within a thousand kilometers to the southwest. If we really want to make a breakthrough, we can only continue to go to the periphery like this. However, the wild animals here Pokémon, especially Pokémon in the sea, are indeed much stronger. Opportunities and risks coexist, so be more careful!"

Hills didn't hesitate. With a sigh and a warning, he took off and left with the help of the Scorpio King.

Soon after, the fleet on the other side of the island, belonging to the battle sea in the pioneering area, weighed anchor again and sailed in another direction.

There, there is an island discovered by preliminary surveys waiting to be developed and explored.

"Hurry up and heal these powerful crocodiles. The breeders will go to the north to appease the emotions of the crocodiles, blue crocodiles and other wild Pokémon. Fighters, do your best to protect them! Set up camp at the scheduled camping site on the [-]rd, and do a good job Be vigilant, especially underground.”

Watching Hills leave, Zhijiu picked up the communicator and arranged the follow-up matters in an orderly manner.

After many years of training with Yuuto and Opie, he has gradually become able to stand on his own. Not only does he have the strength to be a candidate for the Four Heavenly Kings, he is also able to lead a large team on his own to fight or develop.

However, his style of leading by example and pursuing independent problem-solving remains the same as before, despite Lai's repeated reminders, it has become one of his signatures. Although it has added some risks, it has gained the trust and admiration of his subordinates.
-
The southern waters of Fengyuan, [-] kilometers south of Haiyuan Island, open sea.

An island shrouded in strange fog suddenly appeared around an ocean route.

The ocean-going cargo ship of the Gold Shipping Group passing through this area immediately reported it, and the Maritime Security Force, the Southern Branch and the Development Zone jointly organized a special force to conduct investigation.

The first to arrive here was the high-speed warship of the Southern Division.

"The communications team ensures smooth communication and reports any signal fluctuations as soon as possible. Pay attention to the contact signals of the security forces in the development area and maritime areas at all times and coordinate well."

"Yes, Division Chief."

"The intelligence team is on guard 50 meters behind me to ensure that all kinds of flares can be fired at any time. The second team is on standby."

"Yes, Division Chief."

"Okay, let's go, Desert Dragonfly, let's go!"

Wearing a smart combat uniform and neat short hair, the young man took the lead, riding the powerful desert dragonfly and rushing into the fog.

A dozen seemingly well-trained trainers set off later, and with the help of Da Wang Yan, they followed closely behind.

There were no tasks assigned for the time being, so the few people who stayed on the island started chatting.

A young woman who looked to be in her early twenties was the first to speak: "Do you think the head of the Gaoguang branch can be promoted to the Four Heavenly Kings? If Mr. Daigo really wants to resign."

"I think so. Our southern branch is the strongest. Only the southwestern branch can barely compete with us. The strength of the Gaoguang branch is also top among several candidates for the king." He has an average appearance but an unusual figure. The strong man said so.

"But the competition is also very fierce. Director Tomohisa of the Southwest Branch, Chief Issei of Maritime Security, Director Furong of Sacred Mountain, and Safiya who just won the Youth Group Caiyou Tournament last year are all very strong. Ah, Master Youlang and Branch Manager Yosuke from Zijin are also good, but they should be weaker." The young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses analyzed clearly.

"Before your next discussion, can you remember to turn off the public communication first? Think less, pay attention to vigilance, and try to get first-hand information before the development zone and Yicheng come over."

The few people were chatting enthusiastically, and Gao Guang's somewhat helpless voice came from the communicator, which made them panic and turn off the communication.

"These guys"

Shaking his head, Gao Guang gently patted the desert dragonfly's neck, signaling it to slow down and start descending.

He had already noticed something strange mixed between familiarity and unfamiliarity.

"Fourth from the left, hide, Dragon Wave!"

His sixth sense and strong physical fitness far beyond ordinary people gave him an extremely high level of reflexes in wild fighting.

As soon as he senses danger, he immediately makes a judgment.

The descending desert dragonfly immediately maneuvered at high speed, as if moving instantly, and moved several meters away, just in time to avoid a powerful blow that almost tore apart the space.

Then, a white light flashed, and the dragon wave at close range hit the initiator of the sneak attack, a dream demon, with holes in it. It fell down, and saw that there was more air coming out and less air coming in.

"One group, pay attention to vigilance, and keep within my sight at all times. Landed on the ground, there are wild ghost-type Pokémon here, and the risk factor is tentatively set at three stars."

Being accustomed to such battles, Gao Guang didn't pay much attention. He just gave orders to the communicator, and then took the next step and landed on the ground.

"The danger factor has been increased to five stars. One group will retreat, and the second group will send reinforcements five kilometers ahead. Blue flares, I will cover!"

After a few kilometers into the island, the strangeness fades and is replaced by a familiar madness.

However, the opponents on this island are much weaker than those on the Island of Violence.

Gao Guang was able to withstand attacks from all directions with ease. Iron Palm and Tortoise used their bows to kill all the wild Pokémon that dared to advance.

The sun shines through the fog, and the combination of Bulbasaur and Coal Turtle turns a large area in front of you into a desert.

Under his influence, the intelligence personnel of the first group evacuated to the beach intact, and then returned to the ship with the support of the second group.

A little later, Gao Guang, who was a little embarrassed and covered with mud and blood of wild Pokémon, also returned with the desert dragonfly.

"Block the perimeter, report to the alliance headquarters, apply for an increase in alert level, and launch the first round of attack after the sea security forces and the pioneering area arrive."

As soon as he landed, Gao Guang issued orders with ease.

"The situation is similar to the Island of Violence. The area is about 5.00% of the Island of Violence. The core cannot be reached, but the approximate location is here. The strongest Pokémon should be about the same as the Tortoise, but there are a lot of them. Energy monitoring The device shows there are more than twenty, and seven appeared in the previous battle with me."

In the temporary meeting room, Gao Guang explained the situation succinctly and pointed to the temporarily drawn island map.

"In this position, my Tyrannosaurus should be able to assault the past. However, the iron-clawed lobster and Hu Di may not be able to destroy the core of this world, and the combined efforts of Yuqi and I may not be enough. According to the teacher's research, the strength of the core of such a world It should be much higher than the level of the strongest Pokémon, its creation.”

Issei, whose appearance became more and more heroic, was still as calm as ever. He naturally stepped forward and dominated the discussion.

"Xinwu and I can open the way for you, we are pretty good at dealing with these wild Pokémon."

The prescription of Yuxiang's glasses seems to be a little higher, and her whole person's temperament is more intellectual, not at all like the new Battle Tower Lord who was respected by all the challengers in the battle.

You Qi suggested: "Should we ask the teacher to come? Although it is not impossible for us to do such a big thing ourselves, there is also a risk of mistakes."

Geng Gui emerged from the shadow behind her, made a face at the old friends, and was pressed back by her expressionlessly.

"A few of us can give it a try first. Under the premise of ensuring safety, we can make a short surprise attack to at least explore the bottom. If it doesn't work, we can ask the teacher. If we have to ask the teacher for help with everything, it will seem like we are students. It’s not disappointing. The teacher has retired after all.”

Xinwu, who had been silent all this time, stood up, walked to the sketch, pointed to the shortest route, and suggested.

"What Xinwu said makes sense, and if it's not enough for you, then if you count us, it's almost enough, right?"

Outside the conference room, the sound of wind and fire came, followed by the sound of dense footsteps.

"Brother Yusaku? Mr. Jindai is here too?"

Seeing someone coming at the door, Gao Guang hurried forward to greet him. "Lai knows that you guys must want to do something on your own, so you called me over. Go ahead and do it. I'll give you the details."

Although physical fitness, especially reaction ability, has declined slightly with age, the strength of the God Generation is still at the forefront in the entire Hoenn today, especially after winning the recognition of the Three Sacred Birds of Kanto Continent. Afterwards, it went one step further, and was second only to Cortina, who was constantly adventurous, in the pioneering leaders.

With him present, everyone felt more confident and made a prompt decision to launch an attack on this misty island.
-
"The Chinese Valentine's Day blue bird, the magic shines! The gem starfish spins at high speed!"

"Charem, split tile! Wind Fairy, energy ball!"

Not far from the beach, the core of the world, sensing the danger of destruction, launched a fierce attack on everyone who landed on the island.

However, the few people who came prepared quickly divided into two groups.

Youxiang and Xinwu, who are best at high-speed close combat, are responsible for blocking the attack, while Yusaku behind them conducts long-range strikes and guides ships on the sea to provide long-range precision firepower and air support.

After a round of deliberate and unintentional attacks and defenses, the couple, who had a tacit understanding of each other, teamed up to kill seven of the King Pokémon. The rest of the Pokémon were more or less injured. Not only were they unable to overcome their defense, they even On the contrary, they were beaten back and forth, especially when Yusaku's Thorn Dragon King targeted their weak points and attacked them one after another, which made them miserable.

"The core area will be left to you."

Yuxiang, who had taken off her glasses, was a complete fighting madman. At this time, the dominant one among the two became Xinwu.

He waved to Issei and Takahiro in the distance, and then calmly threw himself into the battle. Every move was very similar to Rai and Lila's style. He commanded skillfully, advanced and retreated well, and alternated between long-range and close combat. It is the most natural, and already has a sense of ingenuity and lack of workmanship.

In contrast to him, the quiet Yuka is very fierce and fearless in her fighting style. She can take the initiative when fighting against many. With Nidoking as the core, she is like a heavy tank, crushing forward, combining the air and the ground. It coincides with Naqi's three-dimensional combat method.

"Stinging Dragon King, Dragon Wave! You, the principal of the Battle Academy, are much more presentable than a rough guy like me."

While fighting side by side with the two, Yusaku teased Shinbu and himself.

"By the way, Brother Yusaku. The teacher often asks me to learn more from you. Chalem, left rear, cover!"

Xinwu humbly said, Mega Charem immediately adjusted his defense, protected Yuxiang's flanks, and knocked away an attacking Alidos.

"Be careful, Youxiang." After scratching his head, Xinwu reminded his wife who rushed too far forward.

"Aren't you here? Tanabata Blue Bird, magic shines!"

Yuxiang stuck out her tongue and said with a slight smile.

Pink light shone, and all the wild Pokémon struggled painfully.
-
"Leave these to me, Desert Dragonfly, Dragon's Dive! Iron Palm Warrior, close combat!"

Seeing several wild Pokémon with significantly stronger strength rushing out from the deepest part of the island, Gao Guang, who was well prepared, immediately rushed forward and started a fierce battle with them.

"Then, Mr. Jindai, let the two of us give it a try first."

Issei nodded slightly to Jindai, and then he and Yuki launched an attack forward.

"Flying Dragon, Dragon Wave! Crossed Bat, Air Slash! Iron-clawed Lobster, Crab Claw Hammer! Swampert, Climbing Waterfall!"

In the face of the powerful offensive, the core of this fragmented world also revealed its true appearance: a dead tree.

A sinister aura came out of it.

Under the ground, countless wild Pokémon, whether dead or alive, crazily emerged, withstanding the offensive of Tyrannosaurus and Crossbat, heading straight for Iron Claws and Swampert.

"Meenas, water cannon! Stab the Dragon King, Dragon Wave! Nut dumbbells, powerful whipping! Hu Di, suppress the spirit with strong thoughts!"

"Gengar, continuous shadow balls! Lotte Kappa, energy balls! Double axe fighting dragon, reverse scale!"

Effortlessly fishing out the trump card of the core of the world, the two people who wrote their tacit understanding into their instincts immediately split up.

Wrapped in colorful light, Hu Di and Gengar completed their mega evolution simultaneously, and their auras were superimposed, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was falling.

The super power turned into an invisible thread, using Mega Hu Di as a relay, connecting each Pokémon, allowing Issei to command more than a dozen Pokémon like an arm, with Yu Qi assisting from the side. Issei's sight blind spots and defense gaps.

For more than ten years, there have been countless battles, big and small. The two of them used this method of warfare as their trump card, and they were invincible.

This time is no exception.

Nut Dumbbell charges side by side with the Double Ax Battle Dragon, creating a gap in the enemy's line.

The strong mental thoughts crushed down, and in a head-to-head encounter, he forcibly suppressed the opponent for a moment.

Taking this opportunity, countless long-range strikes fell in mid-air and on the ground.

Amidst the loud explosions, the Jedi counterattack that had been brewing for a long time in the core of the world was declared bankrupt.

Along the path created by the bombing, the giant swamp monster and the iron claw lobster took turns to cover and rushed forward.

"boom!--"

At the moment when it was about to approach, the dead wood emitted a dazzling light, followed by a brazen electric current.

"Boom"

"Kamo!"

The white light exploded, and Yuqi's right hand still maintained the posture of throwing the elf ball.

The giant swamp monster, whose arms were obviously thicker than those of the same kind, blatantly blocked the lore blow and flew backwards. Even though it had ground-type attributes, its arms were scorched black and it lost its fighting ability.

However, it bought time for the Crayfish and Issei's Swampert.

"Right now, crayfish, guillotine! Swampert, earthquake!"

With one punch and one shock, the combo that Issei was proud of hit the branches and roots of the dead wood.

"Click"

The dead wood broke apart, and endless pure energy poured out along the gap.

However, this is not the end of everything.

Moisturized by the energy, the "Pokémon" that had been destroyed, whether they were living creatures or corpses, got up again and launched attacks on people and things around them.

"Reggie Locke! Registeel! Regice!"

At the critical moment, a hemispherical energy barrier rose up, with dead wood enclosed within it.

"Leave the inside to you, leave the outside to me. Flame Bird! Lightning Bird! Frozen Bird!"

With a loud shout, Jindai rushed forward, and the three divine birds launched a devastating offensive.

The "resurrected" Pokémon zombies immediately turned into coke, debris, or ice sculptures, and no longer had any ability to threaten the outside world.

In the electric current, strands of purifying power seeped into the surface, digging out the foundation of this unforgiving island.

Within the barrier, Issei, who no longer had any worries, said unambiguously: "If it doesn't work once, try it again! Tyrannosaurus, Dragon Dive! Swampert, Earthquake! Iron-clawed Lobster, Decapitation Clamps! Let's uproot it!"

In mega Hu Di's eyes, blue light burst out, combining with Issei's super power, resulting in a qualitative change.

The three Pokémon charged at the same time, and the dead tree, which was already unstable, was immediately crumbling.

"Get up!"

In the roar, the captain's hat on his head flew up, and the powerful superpower surged out like a tide, turning into an overwhelming torrent and rushing towards the dead trees.

"boom--"

Amidst the deafening energy blasts, the core of the world that had stood for countless ages, the black dead wood was riddled with holes, and then collapsed.

The world without its core is no different from the Island of Violence, slowly dissipating like fine sand at the fingertips.

However, this speed is much faster than that of the Island of Violence.

"Hey, you guys are getting the most of the limelight again. Back off! I'm going to report to the headquarters!"

The desert dragonfly flew past Yicheng and Yuqi, and flew towards the warship at high speed.

"This Gao Guang. Let's go too, Yuki. There's nothing left here. Let professionals do the salvaging of crystals later." Gently wrapping Yuki's waist, Yicheng was a gentleman He gracefully put her first on the back of the Tyrannosaurus, and then, the blood-winged dragon soared into the sky.

"Teacher, fortunately, we have uprooted this island."

In front of the communicator, Issei and the others stood in a row in an orderly manner. On the other side of the screen was Lai, who looked very lazy, but in fact he had already changed into his combat uniform.

"Mikri and the others all know, right? You've done a good job. I can have a solid rest again. Remember to come home when you're done with the things at hand. I haven't seen you for a while, so I'll cook."

Seeing that the crisis was over, Lai returned to his usual self.

As the students become more and more independent, and the students from the trainer school graduate one after another, the overall strength of the Hoenn region has been steadily improving, and there are fewer and fewer things that need to be solved by Rai himself. This made him feel particularly happy.
-
Somewhere in the distant ocean, a simple three-masted sailboat cut through the waves.

Genji, who had white hair and beard, stood on the bow of the boat with his arms crossed as usual, facing the sea breeze, wondering what he was thinking.

Because he no longer wears the familiar captain's hat, his silver hair is also gently fluttering in the sea breeze.

A baby dragon that looked like it had just been born was next to its legs, constantly banging its strong head here and there, making dull or crisp sounds.

On the deck, scattered sailors were busy with their own affairs in an orderly manner.

Behind him, a calm middle-aged man slowly approached.

"Captain, we are very close to the location recorded in the documents."

Yuanji nodded and turned to look at his eldest disciple: "Thank you for your hard work, Liangguang. It's obviously the age when you should start a family and start a career, but it's hard for you to run around on the sea with an old man like me."

"Compared with starting a family and starting a business, the vast and mysterious sea is more suitable for me. After all, I am a sea boy who grew up on a boat!"

Liangguang smiled nonchalantly, unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, and felt the comfortable sea breeze.

"Captain, first mate! The detector shows energy fluctuations coming from the seabed!"

Just as he was talking, a young-looking sailor hurried over to report.

"It seems we have arrived. The things Lai gave us are useful. Now that old guy Hutch is definitely not as fast as us! I'll take the first step, Thorn Dragon King, let's go!"

Putting on his portable diving device, Genji jumped into the water.

"Master! Hey, the boss is old, but he still thinks like this. Stop the ship and detect the energy fluctuations. A team of sailors are on standby at any time, waiting for my signal."

While complaining and giving orders, Liang Guang took off his obstructive coat and put on the diving equipment that Yuanji had prepared for him. He followed closely, jumped off the deck, and dived into the deep sea.

The calm sea welcomes treasure-hunting and dream-seeking travelers again today.

After all, the deep and mysterious seabed has always entrusted the dreams of countless men on the sea, which has nothing to do with age.
