Not a trainer this time

The next day, the heavy snow that had fallen all night did not stop.

Looking out through the window, the snow stretched far into the distance, as if the whole world had turned into a world of ice and snow.

Snowflakes fell one after another, and Naoki could guess without thinking that a thick layer of snow had covered the roof of his house.

Unable to go out in the blizzard, Naoki sat in front of the fireplace and read a book after breakfast.

The Pokémons did not seem to feel anything.

They were still running and playing around the room happily as before, or lying down next to Naoki's rocking chair and reading with Naoki.

For them, it seemed that being with Naoki was very happy in itself.

Although he could not go out, Naoki was rarely quiet when he heard the sound of snow falling outside.

He actually liked the feeling of hiding in a warm home with his Pokémons when everything was quiet.

At this time, the Rotom phone placed aside suddenly rang.

Naoki picked it up and found that it was sent by Leihe.

[Leihe: I finally solved the mystery of the disaster treasure! ]

[Wing King: What do you mean? ]

[Leihe: I have consulted a lot of information and records during this period, and now I have finally determined the specific location of the ancestral hall that sealed the four disaster treasures! Next, just go to those places to unlock the seal, and the four treasures can be reappeared in the world! ]

Zhuotai City, faculty dormitory.

Leihe excitedly told Naoki across from her discovery and sent the relevant photos she found.

[Leihe: This is it! The Pokémon messenger in the past used sacred stakes to seal the four disaster treasures in the ancestral hall. ]

[Leihe: One Pokémon corresponds to one ancestral hall... It is said that eight stakes are driven near each ancestral hall to suppress the power of disaster. In other words, as long as all the corresponding stakes are pulled out! The Pokémon called the disaster treasure can be released! ! 】

According to Leihe's investigation, the patterns on the shrine are variants of the word "Fu" and a round longevity pattern.

Of course, that is not the text used exclusively by the Padia Alliance, but the text used in the distant East, the hometown of the Treasure of Disaster.

In that ancient country, this pattern is usually regarded as a symbol of "warding off evil spirits".

[Wing King: The power of disaster? If the stake is suddenly pulled out and the seal is lifted, will the disaster that happened in the Padia Kingdom in the past reappear in the world? 】

Naoki recalled the scene he saw when he went to explore the underground cave of Padia with Leihe.

The ancient Padia Royal City sank into the ground due to the earthquake caused by the ancient tripod deer and was buried forever.

[Leihe: Of course not! According to the descendants of the Pokémon Messenger who sealed the Treasure of Disaster, in order to pull out the stake, you need to have a bond with Pokémon, and this power will calm the four disaster Pokémon. ]

[Leihe: If someone like you is good at using Pokémon, it is possible to do it, so I'm going to ask you for help this time! Please help me one last time! ]

Naoki: "..."

He remembered that in the game, Leihe gave full authority to the player to do it.

But now it seems that Leihe also wants to witness it in person?

[Wing King: Do you want to go with me? ]

[Leihe: Well, I'm afraid there is no way. I wanted to go there, but I skipped classes and went on adventures before, and the principal noticed me... So, I'll ask you for everything, Naoki! ]

Naoki was speechless. Leihe is worthy of being a tomb robber!

He thought of those disaster treasures that can bring disaster.

If the characteristics of them are reversed with the reversal series of dishes, there will be four more "auspicious beasts" in this world.

[Wing King: Okay, but it's snowing heavily now, and the ranch is preparing for the New Year. I'll go there after the New Year. ]

[Leihe: No problem! I've been waiting for a long time, and a few days won't be a big deal. But when you catch those Pokémon, you must bring them to me! 】

Naoki agreed straightforwardly.

[Leihe: Then I'll send you the exact location of the Sealed Shrine now. You can register it on the map app. Rotom's phone can automatically navigate for you. Although some shrines are located halfway up the mountain, you can definitely get there smoothly if you have Gulton. 】

After that, Leihe shared a link.

Naoki clicked it, and the phone interface automatically jumped to the Pokémon Map app.

Then, four marks appeared on the screen.

The Dust Shrine that sealed the Ancient Ding Deer is located in the foothills of the northern part of the Big Pot Lake.

The Frozen Crack Shrine that sealed the Ancient Sword Leopard is located in the south of the Hot Desert, at the end of the mountain road fork.

The Fire Shrine that sealed the Ancient Jade Fish is located under a waterfall in the Random Strike Falls, one of the ten scenic spots in Padiya.

Naoki still remembers that place. There is a large beautiful bamboo forest surrounded by streams, and the scenery is very beautiful.

The rotten wood shrine that seals the ancient Jian Snail is located under the cliff in the southeast of Padiya.

After a quick glance, Naoki closed the map app and sent an OK gesture to Leihe.

[Leihe: Then I will wait for your good news in Zhuotai City! ]

After the communication ended, Naoki silently thought about the next plan.

There will be a lot of things to do next year. In order to repay Giratina for helping him raise the World Tree to the sky, he needs to help Giratina "teach" Arceus together.

At that time, the grass-attributed Bud Crown will undoubtedly be a main force.

Therefore, before that, he has to help Bud Crown improve his strength as much as possible.

And obtaining Bud Crown's Grass Z is one of them.

With the Z bracelet, Bud Crown can use the more powerful Z move [Glorious Flower Blossom] to launch a full-scale attack on Arceus.

Well... he mainly wants to see how powerful Bud Crown, who is now blessed by tens of millions of faiths, is compared with Arceus's clone.

For Grass Z and Z bracelet, he can try to py with the four island gods in the Alola region, maybe he can get their recognition and obtain these two items.

Therefore, Naoki plans to buy a villa in the Alola region.

In this way, they will stay in the Padia region normally in spring, summer and autumn in the future.

When the cold winter comes, I will take everyone in the ranch to that tropical place for vacation.

Speak of the devil and he will appear.

A real estate company in Hoole City in the Alola region called.

"Hello, is this Mr. Naoki? This is Hoole Real Estate Company. We have found a house that meets your requirements."

"Hmm? Where is it?" Naoki asked.

"On Akala Island in the northeast of the Alola region. Someone is selling a villa ranch there."

Akala Island...

Naoki used his mobile phone to check and soon found a satellite image of Akala Island.

From the picture, we can see that the terrain of the island is very flat. There is a large volcano in the north, a gurgling hill with waterfalls like terraces in the northwest, and a jungle in the south.

To the southwest of the island is a peninsula consisting of the mole tunnel and the city of Koniko.

In the middle of the island is the town of Ohana surrounded by ranches and pastures.
