Not a trainer this time

Since the last time we saw each other, Chaomeng hadn't seen Mew for several years.

They met on a new island, when it was still falling into chaos in search of an answer.

In order to find the meaning of its existence, it transformed the new island, transformed the ruins of the original Team Rocket research institute into a castle, and invited powerful humans to the banquet.

It was then that the dream broke into its castle.

Mewtwo, who was cloned from Mew's genes, fought a battle with Mew in order to prove that the copy was stronger than the original.

The war affected the Pokémon and trainers who attended the banquet. It was at that time that Mewtwo saw the good side in humans.

The human named Xiaozhi fought to stop them, but was turned to stone. The Pokémon present woke it up with tears.

After witnessing all this, Mewtwo was moved by them, and finally gave up the plan, leading the group of replica Pokémon like it to leave the new island.

The second encounter was at a place called Qingqing Cliff.

At that time, Chaomeng formally learned about the Heroes Expedition for the first time, and also had a deep understanding of the dream that he once regarded as his mother.

In the end, Mewtwo accepted the invitation from Mew and Baby Bear and led the cloned Pokémon to a place called Naoki Ranch.

The human named Naoki hosted it and the cloned Pokémon.

In the eyes of the other party, these copied Pokémon seem to be no different from ordinary Pokémon. They are all creatures that exist in this world.

In order to thank the other party for their hospitality, or for some other inexplicable reasons, Chaomeng did not use his super power to erase the other party's memory of himself.

After that, it took the cloned Pokémon and began to travel around the world like humans, looking for a paradise that belongs to them.

But until now, Chaomeng still hasn't found that place.

But Chaomeng didn't feel lost, because he met a lot of Pokémon along the way and had enough time to calm down and think.

The human genes in its body provide it with more emotions and intelligence than ordinary Pokémon.

This trip also benefited him a lot.

Today's Mewtwo's state of mind has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to when he was on the new island.

After going through so much, meeting so many Pokémon, and watching them treat me like a normal Pokémon.

In those moments, it seems that it has become a part of all living beings in this world. It comes to this world as an ordinary person and will eventually leave as an ordinary person.

Meeting Mew again here, Chaomeng suddenly felt an unprecedented emotion in his heart.

It seems that they are looking forward to meeting each other and telling each other about their current situation.

Mewtwo restrained the terrifying superpower fluctuations in his body. It walked forward with the cloned Pokémon and called out telepathically.

"dream."

Meng Meng, who was taking a nap under a towering tree, suddenly heard a familiar voice calling him.

It opened its eyes slightly confused and looked forward.

Immediately afterwards, Mengmeng saw several familiar figures in the open space ahead.

That's... Mewtwo, Meowth, Bulbasaur, Pikachu and the like!

"miu!"

Dream immediately let out a cry of surprise.

The joy of reunion welled up in its heart, and it flew forward happily, flying around Mewtwo and those Pokémon, saying hello to them.

Baby Bear and Lightning Bird were also awakened by the dreamy sounds.

Baby Bear's eyes lit up, and he ran forward happily, greeting Chaomeng and the others: "One, one, one!"

Zapdos had never seen Mewtwo before, so he couldn't help but feel confused when he saw the actions of his two teammates.

But soon, Baby Bear introduced Chaomeng to it: "One, one, one!" (It is Chaomeng, a good friend we met before!)

Hearing this, Zapdos suddenly realized that this Pokémon, like it, had also been helped by the Heroes Expedition Team.

Mewtwo also set his sights on the bird Pokémon with yellow feathers.

It nodded slightly at the other party, and then looked at Meng Meng and Baby Bear.

"Long time no see." Mewtwo's deep voice sounded in the minds of the two Pokémon through telepathy.

"Miu!" Meng Meng nodded her little head. They had indeed not seen each other for a long time.

It tilted its head, looked at everyone following Chaomeng, and couldn't help but ask: "miu?" (Are you traveling too?)

Mewtwo nodded.

A group of Pokémon sat down in this forest clearing.

Baby Bear took out snacks made by Naoki from the satchel on Zapdos to entertain the group of Pokémon.

Chaomeng took a look at the exquisitely crafted and cute human food, and then said to Mew:

"Well, I want to see the world, and I'm also looking for a place that can accommodate the cloned Pokémon like us."

Dream asked: "miu?" (Have you found it?)

Chaomeng shook his head: "Not yet."

The world is very big, and there are traces of human beings in many places.

Compared to places that are close to human cities and are often disturbed by human trainers, Chaomeng's heart prefers to be in quiet valleys that are uninhabited, have beautiful environments and are rich in resources.

Among them, a location with rich resources is the most important of the three conditions.

At first, Chaomeng didn't feel anything, but as they traveled, Chaomeng gradually realized something.

Pokémon need to eat.

It doesn't matter on its own and can handle it casually, but it can't with the group of companions around it.

Therefore, for more than a year, every time he stopped on the road, Chaomeng would first place them in a safe place, and then go out to find food by himself.

Because of this, Chaomeng would often sigh, life! Is this the life of humans and ordinary Pokémon who originally lived in this world?

Hearing Mewtwo's words, Mew and Baby Bear looked at each other.

In fact, the two of them also like Chaomeng very much and have regarded Chaomeng as their good friend.

In the dead of night before, Meng Meng would occasionally think of Chaomeng, wanting to know where it was now and how it was doing.

And that feeling became even stronger after the World Tree grew up.

——It would be great if Mewtwo and Pikachu Meowth could also settle in the World Tree.

In this way, we will never have to say goodbye again!

You can meet whenever and wherever you want to eat fruit, watch stars, or chase and play together. You can also invite everyone to play in a secret base.

Just thinking about it makes me so happy!

Thinking of this, Mengmeng and Baby Bear made up their minds.

Baby Bear opened his mouth and extended an invitation to Chaomeng: "One!" (Chaomeng, come and live on the World Tree with everyone!)

Upon hearing this unfamiliar word, Chaomeng was slightly startled.

"world Tree?"

Its tone was filled with confusion.

"One!" (Yes! World Tree!)

Baby Bear nodded repeatedly.

Meng Meng on the side also happily covered his mouth and smiled: "miu~" (Yes, that is a very big tree, planted by Zhishu. We have invited many good friends to live there~)

Baby Bear's eyes were bright: "One!" (In this case, everyone can always be together from now on!)

Naoki...it's that human again.

The image of the last human being who entertained it with fruit wine came to Mewtwo's mind.

"Did he plant the World Tree?" Chaomeng asked.

Baby Bear nodded: "One!" (There is also a goat!)

Mount Goat sounds like a Pokémon too.

Chaomeng couldn't help but fell into deep thought, and it didn't agree immediately.

Now it is not alone. Besides it, there are many Pokémon around it waiting for it to take care of.

Thinking of this, Mewtwo turned around and looked at the group of replica Pokémon following him.

Pikachu, Meowth, Charizard, Blastoise, Bulbasaur, Pangolin, Gyarados, Gotha Duck, Kyuubi, Nidoking, Water Eevee, King Flower, Flame Horse, One-horned Rhino, Pangko Man.

In addition to these cloned Pokémon, their team has also been growing throughout the year.

Two bleak sheep, a tailed meow, a squirrel, a curly ear, a mount lamb and a clay donkey.

These Pokémon had been persecuted by humans. Mewtwo couldn't bear to see that happen, so he rescued them.

Since then, this group of Pokémon has joined their ranks.

Chaomeng is going to take them to find a secluded place to live together.

Mewtwo looked at the group of Pokémon, and the group of Pokémon also looked at Mewtwo.

"miu?"

Meng Meng on the side tilted his head and watched this scene.

It blinked, as if it felt the hesitation and hesitation on Chaomeng's body, and there was a thoughtful expression on Mew's little face.

Baby Bear's little face was bitter, and he was very puzzled by Chaomeng's hesitation.

"One thing..." (It would be great if we all live together...)

Chaomeng remained silent and did not speak.

At this moment, Meng Meng suddenly thought of a good idea.

It flew to Chaomeng quite excitedly and called to it: "miu!" (Chaomeng!)

Chaomeng was slightly startled and looked up at Meng Meng in confusion.

The next second, Meng Meng curled up his body, as if exerting force, and then, a blue magical halo spread out from its body towards the surroundings.

The surrounding scene was changing rapidly.

From the clearing of the wild forest, we arrived at the top of a huge and towering tree.

Almost in the blink of an eye, all the Pokémon noticed this huge tree.

There were expressions of surprise on their faces.

"Pickup!"

"Meow?

"..."

Chaomeng was also very surprised, but soon he realized that this was Mew showing them the World Tree in his memory!

"Is this the World Tree?" Chaomeng looked forward with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

They are so small and insignificant compared to this tree.

"miu!"

Dream nodded repeatedly.

Then, it used telekinesis to fly forward with the Pokémon around it.

Passing through the lush trees at the top of the World Tree, a vast area appeared below.

Chaomeng glanced at it and found that the size of this place was actually comparable to a metropolis built by humans!

The trees have a variety of terrains, including lush woods, green meadows, streams passing through the woods, and finally converging into a circular lake in a clearing.

These are what they can see now.

Where the field of vision cannot yet be reached, there must be a wider area over there.

Meng Meng took everyone flying in the trees and introduced:

"miu~" (This is the World Tree. Don't worry. This place is very quiet. Except for Zhi Shu who comes up occasionally, there are no other humans at all. There are only Pokémon on the tree. Zhi Shu said that he wants to help us in the tree. Build an expedition guild headquarters!

Baby Bear added on the side: "One, one, one!" (That's right! In addition to the guild, there are also Pokémon Taverns, Pokémon Cafes, Pokémon Restaurants, and Pokémon Hospitals, all of which are operated by Pokémon Dream management!)

"miu!" (Also, Naoki will plant many fruit trees on the trees, so everyone doesn't have to worry about going hungry!)

Baby Bear's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

"One!" (We want the name of the Heroes Adventure Team to ring throughout the world! Help every Pokémon in need!)

After hearing the words of the two Pokémon and witnessing the scene on the World Tree with his own eyes, before Mewtwo could speak, the faces of the group of Pokémon behind him showed expressions of longing.

If possible, they really want to have a home that belongs only to them, where they can eat endless fruits every day and play with their companions when they wake up.

Instead of running around like now... without a fixed place, wandering around like a homeless Pokémon.

More importantly, with Mewtwo.

Let's live happily together in the paradise that belongs only to them.

After the introduction, Meng Meng and Baby Bear stopped talking.

They looked quietly at Mewtwo and the group of Pokémon in front of them, leaving the rest of the time to everyone.

Although they would like to invite everyone to settle on the World Tree, in the end they still have to let everyone make their own decision.

Mewtwo looked at the Pokémon behind him in silence.

When it saw their eyes, it already had the answer in its heart.

"Do you want to live there?"

Pikachu 2, which was cloned from Ash's Pikachu, was the first to answer: "Pikachu!" (Mewtwo is also going with us!)

The clone of Team Rocket’s Meow looked longingly: “Meow.” (No matter where you look at the moon, it’s round, Meow.)

Chaomeng was slightly startled.

Its eyes scanned the other Pokémon around it.

I saw Bulbasaur, Charizard, Blastoise and other Pokémon nodding to it neatly.

Chaomeng closed his eyes and whispered: "I understand."

After a moment, it opened its eyes and turned to look at the waiting Meng Meng and the baby bear.

"Thank you, Mew, Baby Bear." Chaomeng's deep voice sounded in the ears of the two Pokémon: "Next, we will set off together to go to the place you mentioned to take a look."

"Miu!" Meng Meng shouted happily.

Baby Bear also nodded happily: "One!" (Yeah, you will definitely like it there! If you are there, you will no longer have to run around outside!)

Seeing these two Pokémon thinking about him so much, Chaomeng was moved.

"Yeah." It nodded, and then asked: "Then do you want to go to that place with us?"

Dream and Baby Bear shook their heads.

"One, one, one!" (Not yet, Naoki has issued some commissions to us, and we are now going to help a Pokémon named Jirachi!)

"miu!" (We won't go back until winter. Then I will take you to play in my secret base. There are many toys there!)

Seeing Meng being as innocent as a human child, Chaomeng couldn't help but smile.

Was it cloned from such a Pokémon?

Now it seems that their personalities are very different.

The human genes in the body tell Chaomeng that in a sense, Meweng is its mother.

During the years of traveling in this world, Chaomeng has already understood what a mother is.

But looking at the child-like dream in front of him, Chaomeng suppressed the thought in his mind.

It nodded and agreed: "Well, we will wait there for you to go back."

*

In the afternoon, after Naoki successfully delivered the apples ordered by the guests, he began to return to the ranch.

On a country road full of earthy smell, Naoki drove his old pickup truck slowly.

A group of Eevee squeezed into the passenger seat, pressing their faces against the window glass to look at the scenes on both sides of the road.

Gulerton and Motorized Lizard were sitting in the back compartment of the pickup truck.

From time to time, you can see trainers running by with travel backpacks on their backs. Occasionally, you can see them taking out their Poké Balls to fight Pokémon in the grass.

Looking at that scene, Naoki, who was driving a pickup truck, just felt like a background NPC in the game, living an ordinary life of driving a truck and running around with Pokémon every day.

Ordinary people in the Pokémon world are probably like this, right?

Suddenly, Naoki noticed an anxious trainer standing on the roadside in front of him, waving to him.

Naoki raised his eyebrows, parked the car on the side of the road, stuck his head out of the car window, and asked, "Hey, what's going on?"

The childish-looking young man looked anxious: "Sir, please help me and take us to the nearest town! This lion cub is injured and needs treatment as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Naoki looked at the little Shishi in the boy's arms.

The little lion had its eyes tightly closed, its body was covered in scars, its fur was messy, and it looked very weak, as if it had been seriously injured.

"Don't worry, just wait!"

Saying that, Naoki took out a bottle of Life Goat Milk from the carriage and handed it out: "Feed it to that little lion. After drinking this bottle of milk, its health will get better."

The boy was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and took the bottle of fresh milk and fed it to the seriously injured little lion.

The next second, a magical scene happened.

The goat's milk turned into magical energy and began to heal the little lion's injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, the little lion recovered to health, and then slowly opened its eyes.
