Not a trainer this time

Chapter 489 Precious Tangerine Balls Zygarde 10% Form Appears!

The woman followed Naoki into the living room.

She quietly looked at the young man and nodded inwardly.

Well, he is indeed handsome and looks very calm. He looks like a good man.

Her arrival attracted many Pokémon to come up and watch.

The woman's eyes swept over those Pokémon. She was also a trainer when she was young and recognized them at a glance.

Dratini, Motor Lizard, Different-colored Babu Groundhog, Saltstone Giant, Butterfree...

All these Pokémon have been bred very well, and their fur color and mental state are very perfect.

There are even some Pokémon that look very strong.

No wonder her husband was beaten to autism before, the woman thought.

Naoki looked back at the lost tourist. He asked him to sit on the sofa and rest for a while, and then asked his sister Ai Butler to bring a cup of tea to the guest.

"Ai Ai~"

The younger sister Ai Guanshi nodded slightly and soon came over with a cup of tea.

"Thank you."

The woman took the cup, raised her head and drank it all, looking very thirsty.

When she finished the tea in the cup, the woman breathed a sigh of relief: "Ah! Thank you very much!"

"You're welcome." Naoki smiled and shook his head: "Are you a tourist from outside?"

The woman nodded slightly: "Yes, I heard about the legend of Pokémon in Zheqin Town before, so I rushed here from Niangguang City to visit."

"Unexpectedly, I got lost halfway, and it took a lot of effort to find a place where humans live..."

Niangguang City?

Naoki immediately thought of Qishu. He smiled and helped the other party to guide the way to the target location:

"Go west after leaving this ranch. You can see the town of Ziqin along the path to the end. If you want to visit the Fengzao Shrine, you can go north from here and go up the mountain road to reach your destination."

The woman listened very seriously: "Ah, thank you very much. By the way, I haven't asked your name yet."

"Name?" Naoki introduced himself: "My name is Naoki, Naoki from Naoki Ranch."

"Naoki..." The woman murmured and repeated the name: "By the way, you look very young. You should not be 25 years old this year, right?"

Hmm? Naoki rarely met someone who didn't think he looked like an uncle, and he felt a little happy in his heart.

"Yes, I'm 22 years old this year, and I'll be 23 in the second half of the year." He nodded.

"Twenty-two years old, my daughter is also this old!" The woman thought about it, and then smiled and said.

"Daughter?" Naoki was quite surprised.

The woman in front of him seemed to see what he was thinking, and said with a smile:

"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually forty years old! Come to think of it, you should call me auntie!"

"!!!"

Naoki was shocked: "Forty years old?"

But the woman in front of him looked like she was only thirty? !

People in the Pokémon world don't age easily, do they?

"That's right." The woman nodded gently, and she looked outside, seeming to be very interested in the ranch: "It's hard to see such pastoral scenery in big cities!"

The tranquility and leisure of life here give people a very comfortable feeling.

"Can I visit your ranch?" the woman asked.

"Of course." Naoki nodded and agreed.

Then he took the other party to visit his ranch.

From the goats that produce goat milk, to the farmland full of various crops, to the apple orchard and the woolly sheep ranch on the other side of the river.

Looking at such a large ranch, the woman couldn't help but sigh:

"You are so amazing. One person can manage such a large ranch in an orderly manner!"

"It's not just me who manages it!" Naoki said a little embarrassedly: "Many Pokémon in the ranch will also help."

"Where are your family? Don't they live with you?" the woman asked again.

"Family?" Naoki shook his head: "They are all dead. I was not here at first, and then I moved here to live."

"Ah? I'm very sorry!" The woman looked apologetic.

What a poor child...

"It doesn't matter, those things are over." Naoki shook his head and said.

"Well, that's right! People should look forward!" The woman nodded in agreement.

She glanced at the time, and then said: "Well, thank you very much for your hospitality. I have recovered and I won't bother you anymore!"

When she came over just now, she saw Naoki working in the field.

"It doesn't matter. I have received help from others before." Naoki said with a smile.

Then, he pointed the way to the town of Zheqin for the woman:

"Keep going and you will see the town. There are no dangerous Pokémon on the road, and you don't have to worry about being attacked by wild Pokémon. It is very safe here."

The woman smiled gently, nodded slightly, and then handed over the bag in her hand:

"These are the souvenirs I bought on the road before. I will use them to thank you for your hospitality!"

Naoki shook his head subconsciously, thinking that he didn't need to be so polite.

However, after handing the gift to him, the woman turned around and left. After walking a distance, she turned back and waved to him, saying gently: "See you next time!"

Hearing this, Naoki was slightly stunned. What does it mean?

The woman left.

Naoki stood there for a while, then opened the bag and saw a set of exquisite tangerine balls inside.

Sweet Ball, Friend Ball, Moon Ball, Heavy Ball, Speed ​​Ball...

Naoki was stunned instantly.

Because these tangerine balls are a very precious gift!

Tanger balls are different from ordinary Poké Balls. They are handmade from cones grown on cone trees.

In the past, craftsmen who made Poké Balls would hollow out the cones and put them into special nets for capturing Pokémon to make Poké Balls.

Most of these Poké Balls made from cones have special characteristics.

For example, the Sweet Ball can more easily capture wild Pokémon of a different gender from your own Pokémon.

The internal environment of the Friend Ball is very comfortable, and the Pokémon captured with it will be easier to become close to the trainer, just as the name suggests, becoming friends.

The Moon Ball can easily capture Pokémon that can evolve through the Moon Stone.

Before the birth of modern Poké Balls, Poké Balls made of cones were very common. It is said that this technology can be traced back to 400 to 700 years ago.

However, with the development of technology, these Poké Balls were gradually replaced by modern mass-produced Poké Balls because of the long production time and low efficiency.

However, the craftsmen who inherited this craft are still making Poké Balls for excellent trainers. They will spend a whole day carefully carving the cones into precious handmade Poké Balls.

Because of this, the value of this kind of tangerine ball far exceeds that of ordinary red and white Poké Balls, and it is more memorable.

It sounds very romantic for trainers to pick cones and hand them over to craftsmen to make special Poké Balls for their beloved Pokémon partners.

Naoki didn't expect that he would receive such a precious thank-you gift just for providing that person with a glass of water.

This made him not know what to say for a while.

After leaving the ranch, the woman returned directly to the city of Brewing Light.

She opened the door and saw her husband waiting for her there.

Hearing the noise, the man looked up and said, "How is it?"

The couple had been together for many years and had already developed a tacit understanding. With just these three words, the woman understood what her husband meant.

He was asking himself what he thought of the boy.

"He? He is a very sensible child!" The woman recalled the things in the ranch and said softly.

"Hmph." However, the man recalled his previous experience of being six-in-one, and his face turned sour.

Seeing this scene, the woman sighed, "Don't be like this, it's not easy for that child. His parents passed away early, and he was the only one left at home."

Hearing this, the man was slightly stunned and turned to look at his wife.

"He managed the ranch in an orderly manner by himself, and he was able to take care of so many Pokémon."

"Not only that, when I went there, he was very polite to entertain me and provide me with help. That child is a very good person!"

The mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law and liked him more and more.

At this point, the woman said, "If the two of them can go on smoothly, we can rest assured."

"Hmph." The man snorted again, but his tone was much softer than before: "Niangguang City and Ziqin Town are so far away, it will not be easy for Qishu to come back."

"Oh, I don't think there is any need to worry about this matter!" The woman smiled and shook her head: "I saw Dragonite there. With Dragonite's speed, it can go back and forth between the two places in less than 30 minutes."

"Hmph."

Woman: "Stingy guy! I think you just can't let go of your face! Who vowed to let others see your strength before?"

Man: "..."

The set of tangerine balls was finally placed on the display cabinet by Naoki for collection.

Time has come to February of the 201st year of the Alliance Calendar.

The land in the ranch has been planted, and after being cultivated by the mount goat, the crops that have just been planted have blossomed and borne fruit in just a few breaths, and it has come to the harvest stage.

However, Naoki did not harvest immediately. He put these fresh vegetables on the shelves in his ranch shop.

If there are customers who want to buy, they will pick the vegetables from the field and then ship them via Dragonite Express, so that customers who place orders can eat the freshest vegetables.

After doing this, Naoki began to prepare for the plan to capture the four disaster Pokémon.

Leihe has sent him the specific locations of the four Pokémon. He only needs to go to those places to remove the seals and then he can capture them.

Naoki looked at the map of the Padiya region.

The nearest place to them is the Dust Shrine where the Ancient Ding Deer is sealed. It is located in the north of the Big Pot Lake, a place called Guoba Forest Road.

[Wing King: I'm leaving. ]

Before leaving, Naoki sent a message to Leihe.

And Leihe replied quickly.

[Leihe: Come on! It's up to you! ]

Naoki replied with an OK gesture. He looked at the time. It was 8:30 in the morning and the sun had just risen.

If we leave at this time, we might be able to return to the ranch in the afternoon.

"I'm going out today and will probably be back in the ranch in the afternoon. I'll leave the Pokémon in the ranch to you guys at noon." Naoki said to Ai Guanshi and his sister.

"Ai-ah~"

"Ai-ah."

The brother and sister nodded in unison, saying that they would take care of everything in the ranch.

Naoki smiled slightly and then walked out the door.

In the ranch, a group of Pokémon were running and playing on the grass.

It was spring, and the temperature in the air was very pleasant. The grass in the ranch was growing very lushly, and the flowers blooming in the flower fields also attracted many butterflies.

Gulerton lay lazily on the grass and blew the wind.

And the motor lizard was attracted by the butterflies and went into a tall grass to flutter at the butterflies.

Looking at that scene, a picture emerged in Naoki's mind:

A traveling trainer was walking in the grass, and then the motor lizard jumped out and started the battle.

Well, now he knew why players in the game always encountered Pokémon jumping out of the bushes.

In the bushes, Motor Lizard focused all his attention on the flying butterfly.

It tiptoed and raised its head, closely following the flight path of the butterfly.

At this time, the butterfly flew out of the tall grass and was about to land on a stone.

Now!

Motor Lizard found the right time, and then pounced out, covering the butterfly with its claws.

However, the next second, Motor Lizard felt something struggling under his hand.

This kind of strength and struggle is not something a butterfly can do!

"Gaao?"

Motor Lizard moved his palm away in confusion.

Then, he saw a green mysterious Pokémon with one eye and a blue diamond core on its belly on the stone.

The butterfly had already flown away.

"Gaao?!"

Motor Lizard was startled.

The Pokémon seemed to be frightened, and a green light shone on its body.

At the same time, in Naoki's bedroom, the Zygarde cell that was placed on the desk to bask in the sun suddenly shone with a beam of green light.

The next second, the beam of light flew out.

The same scene happened all over the ranch, and even the back mountain had green light flying out. God knows how many cells Zygarde sent to observe.

Naoki, who was touching the head of the grave dog, noticed this scene.

He looked up in surprise, and saw green lights flying from the sky, and then gathered on the motorcycle lizard.

Naoki: "?"

He immediately went forward to check.

But when he saw the scene there clearly, the whole person was stunned.

Because in the green light, a Pokémon that looked like a Doberman gradually appeared!

The Pokémon had a pair of pale eyes, and its body was made up of green and black, with a collar and rope structure on its neck.

And below, there is a blue diamond pattern!

That is... Zygarde's 10% form? !

Was Soft also sent to the ranch by Zygarde to observe?

No... Looking at the blue core, Naoki realized that it was not Soft, because Soft's core was red.

And this Pokémon with a blue core obviously represents the rational Z2!

And unlike Yurika's Soft, Z2 believes that humans are disruptors who disrupt order.

In the anime, it also advises Soft to stay away from humans.

Naoki looked at Z2, and it was obvious that it did not just come here, but was attracted by the World Tree early.

So it has been hiding in the dark and observing secretly all this time?
