Pokémon: Chosen Ranger

Chapter 331 Prelude to Arrival

Akala Island, a vibrant island with lush jungles everywhere. Xia Ye stood on the deck of the passenger ship and looked far away. A touch of deep green gradually emerged on the sea level.

"It seems that we are about to reach our destination."

Xia Ye put down the palm on his forehead, his expression was a little emotional, and the nostalgic memory became clear.

During the fifth time-space distortion, he came to this island with Booming Kong and Steelix, accepted the commission of the king of the island, completed the trial, awakened the sleeping Tapu. Chatter, and healed the injured people and Pokémon.

"Well, Mary also saw it, that is a volcano, hey, you can't see such a scenery in Galar~"

Mary looked like Xia Ye, but she stood on tiptoe to see the same scenery as Xia Ye.

"Yes, the name of this volcano is Wera Volcano. It is said that it has been named this way for a long time. In Alola, Wera means hot, which literally means a very hot mountain.

It is precisely because of this that there are a large number of fire-type Pokémon living there, and the harsh environment has also spawned a unique regional form of Pokémon, Alola Garagara." Xia Ye talked freely.

"Hey, Xia Ye, do you know a lot, or should I say that you did a good job of investigating in advance?"

Mary teased in a lively tone. Xia Ye has been like this since the beginning. I really don't know where he learned it from. To be honest, I envy him.

Xia Ye just smiled at this and shook the Z bracelet on his wrist, saying that he has always been interested in Alola, so it's not surprising that he knows a little more.

In fact, half of this information comes from his personal experience of time and space distortion. The soul song of the gorilla on the volcano is still clearly imprinted in Xia Ye's mind.

The other half comes from online investigations, which can be said to be completed out of interest.

"Is that so? If so, I'll ask you to be Mary's guide once we get to the shore. You won't let me down, will you?"

Mary looked at him expectantly. Xia Ye was about to reply when a tired voice interrupted his thoughts.

"You don't mind having one more person, do you? I... Ugh."

On the deck, Nie Zi held onto the railing with both hands, lowered his head and dragged forward. His face was pale and his eyes were distracted, as if he had gone through some kind of cruel baptism.

He spoke weakly, and his temperament was more in line with the title of "Melancholy Nie Zi".

The nausea forced him to stop and cover his mouth with his hand so as not to look too embarrassed in front of his sister.

"Brother, why did you come out like this? If you are seasick, just lie down on the bed obediently," Mary said with her hands on her hips.

"Well said, Mary, you too, you are from Spike Town and you are seasick. Don't forget what our ancestors did. And how come you don't even know you have seasickness?"

Old man Gad, wearing a fancy shirt, strode over, shaking the iced drink in his hand, and scolded mercilessly.

Nie Zi had a hard time saying it. He had never left Galar, and rarely left Spike Town. He had never taken a boat, so how could he know he had this problem.

"Okay, go back to the room quickly, don't embarrass yourself. Come on, Aye, give me a hand."

Old man Gad raised his hand to call Aye, who was chatting on the side. When he heard it, he immediately ran over, and helped Nie Zi, who tried to resist but had no strength, back to the cabin together with old man Gad.

"Alas, why am I the one who is worried?" Mary sighed, "It's a rare trip, I should be happy, I really envy your obedient Pokémon, Xia Ye."

If Nie Zi heard his sister's complaints, he would definitely be devastated. Xia Ye took the opportunity to look at his own Pokémon. When they were first released, everyone was very excited and lively.

However, now they are all sitting by the railing to cultivate their bodies and minds. Well, to be precise, they are actually fishing, but no fish has been caught.

That's why they can still sit quietly until now, which is enough to be called self-cultivation.

The way to fish was told by the captain. This sturdy uncle should do this because of his love for Eruption.

In his words, Eruption is very much like his little daughter, and he can't help but love her, so this "father" introduced all the entertainment methods on the boat in detail.

Erguiyan immediately chose fishing, and even brought Scaled Dragon and Bear Apprentice to join in, after all, competition is more fun.

Later, Bombarded King Kong and Steel Armored Crow also joined in, and it became a fishing competition, and the winner has not been decided yet.

Everyone stared at the sea, and no one dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the fish.

It’s impossible to catch fish like this, Xia Ye complained in his heart, the reason is very simple, because Milotic is guarding behind everyone.

It is estimated that the fish under the sea have sensed the kingly aura emitted by Milotic, and have long been hiding far away.

The captain’s statement also confirmed this fact. Generally, during the voyage, there will always be uninvited guests such as Megalodon.

They are extremely aggressive, with sharp teeth and terrifying bite force, and can even bite through steel plates, which is extremely threatening to passenger ships.

Therefore, every time the captain goes out, he will hire several powerful trainers to ensure the safety of the voyage.

However, during this voyage, not to mention the Megalodon, even a Magikarp could not be seen, so it was not safe.

He told Xia Ye proudly that this was all thanks to the amulet given by his daughter, and then laughed heartily.

Considering Milotica, Xia Ye did not choose to tell everyone this fact. His own Pokémon would definitely not blame Milotica, but he was afraid that it would think too much.

"Boni!"

At this time, Uruk-Yo suddenly found ripples on the water surface. It instantly realized that a fish was hooked, and hurriedly pulled up the fishing rod.

Then, it felt a strong force coming along the fishing rod. Facing the challenge, Uruk-Yo suddenly got excited and pulled it upwards. A huge black shadow quickly emerged, splashing water, and was pulled out of the water in an instant.

Looking at this azure angry dragon, everyone showed a surprised expression. This is Gyarados, definitely the biggest of the big ones!

You know, fishing is not as simple as just hooking a fish and then pulling it out of the water.

Generally speaking, the easiest fish to catch in rivers is Magikarp, and in the ocean is Smelt. In addition to being easy to bite the hook, size and aggressiveness are also one of the important reasons.

And Gyarados is a dangerous and powerful existence. Even if you try your best to pull it out of the water, you should think more about dealing with the angry Gyarados. Its destructive rays will not show mercy.

This Gyarados was pulled onto the deck by the Eruption. It was still confused with a water drop face, and had no idea how it suddenly left the water.

However, its violent nature quickly turned its expression into anger. Gyarados frowned, its red pupils were full of bloodshot, and its open mouth gathered light.

"Uh, how did we catch this troublesome guy!"

The captain, who was still in the cabin, saw through the window that there was an extra Gyarados on the deck, and his face turned black. He was about to evacuate the passengers on the deck, but he didn't expect that Gyarados actually bit off the hook, jumped into the sea with a click, and fled in a panic.

"Gyarados actually ran away on his own initiative. It turns out that the saying that the longer you sail, the more strange things you see is true." The captain took off his hat to reveal his bald head, and stroked his smooth head in confusion.

"Why did it run away? I wanted to teach it a lesson, but it was caught suddenly, and it was inevitable to get angry."

Mari put down the Poké Ball in her hand. Morube was more than enough to deal with this Pokémon. She was quite confident that she could quickly deal with it.

".Maybe that's it."

Xia Ye understood the reason why Gyarados ran away. Milotica took action. He clearly saw Milotica glare at the other party, and then Gyarados' eyes quickly flashed a trace of fear, and chose to flee in a panic.

But wouldn't Milotic's majesty be effective for most Pokémon in the sea? Gyarados is also in the range. Its performance just now was obviously affected by this effect.

A guess arose in Xia Ye's mind. Could it be that everything was deliberately manipulated by Milotic?

Hmm, I didn't expect that the Queen of the Lake also had a dark and biased side.

The passengers on the deck only came to their senses now about this sudden episode. Then, they clapped and congratulated Uruk-York for catching Gyarados.

As for the reason why Gyarados escaped, everyone attributed it to the sharp thorn stick in Uruk-York's hand, because it looked really scary.

The members of the Shout Team rubbed their noses with pride. After all, Uruk-York was Xia Ye's Pokémon, and Xia Ye was a ranger of the Sunset Forest next to Spike Town, so Uruk-York was also a member of Spike Town.

"Sorry, Xia Ye, everyone in the Shout Team is like this." Mary showed a helpless and accustomed expression.

"It's okay. Just treat it as a wake-up call before we reach Alola. Look, we can already see the tall buildings of Kangdai City."

Xia Ye pointed ahead. The island on the sea level became more and more obvious. Mary said no more. She leaned her hands on the railing and let the sea breeze brush across her cheeks. What kind of experience will she have in this strange land?
