Pokémon: Trainers start as bounty hunters

"Mr. Director!"

Zhe also said hello.

The old man is indeed a senior ninja, both in terms of his sensitivity to the environment and his tolerance for cold.

In the entire huge ninja academy, he and Tetsuya were the only ones who noticed something was wrong late at night.

"It's Tetsuya." The principal smiled and turned his head.

But Tetsuya keenly discovered the helplessness and sadness hidden under his smile.

He couldn't help but ask: "Does the principal know the cause of this sudden heavy snow?"

The principal was stunned for a moment, and then patted the snowflakes on his body as if he was mocking himself: "You are too old to hide your emotions. You are really unqualified!"

He sighed.

Zheye watched the old man's movements quietly, he believed what the other person would say.

Sure enough, the director raised his finger and pointed at the white mountains in the distance: "Did you see the highest mountain in the north of the city?"

Snow-white mountain, Zheye secretly thought, it really is like this.

Apart from the power of mythical beasts, it was really hard for him to imagine any other power that could suddenly turn a summer night into snowy white.

In the previous life, although the three divine birds were often jokingly called the three stupid birds, in fact, as a group that assisted Lugia, their abilities were definitely not weak.

Perhaps the three divine birds on the Orange Islands are the strongest individuals, but Tetsuya feels that if the frozen bird on the White Snow Mountain really lived for more than 1,200 years, its strength should not be much worse.

He didn't speak, and the director didn't pay attention.

Looking up at the slightly bright sky, his words were full of memories: "The existence of frozen birds in the White Snow Mountain has never been a legend. It is true. Many people in the alliance know this - because here

In the past 1,200 years, that frozen bird has saved countless trainers who were almost killed in avalanches."

Zheye had a thought in his mind.

The principal looked at him: "You must have thought that I am one of the ignorant people who was saved by the frozen bird."

"I was much younger than I am now, and of course, much weaker.

In order to pursue the traces of Nula, I went deep into the Snowy Mountains alone with an elite-level Smelly Mud.

Niura didn't find it, but was affected by the aftermath of the battle between other trainers and other elves.

I don’t know which of the evil spirits used earthquakes on the snow-capped mountains regardless of life and death, and the avalanche enveloped me and Xiuxianni almost instantly.”

The principal gritted his teeth as he recalled the shocking scene.

After all these years, he still wanted to go back to that time, find that damn guy and throw him directly off the snowy mountain.

Even the most stupid trainer should know that in places like caves, snowy mountains, and volcanoes, skills such as earthquakes are absolutely prohibited.

Although the probability of it happening once in a while is low, isn't there a ready-made example?

Because of this, the principal often educates students not to take chances, otherwise the consequences will be unbearable.

"Calm down, calm down, that guy probably won't survive." Tetsuya quickly comforted the old man.

He is already old, and he was finally saved by the frozen bird. It is not worthwhile to be so angry.

The director let out a deep breath: "Yes, apart from powerful champion trainers, how many people can rely on their strength to resist the force of nature head-on.

That time, if I hadn't found a pit made of ice, snow and rocks, and the stinking mud stretched its body desperately to block a considerable part of the impact, I might not have lasted more than three seconds before passing out.

Even so, by the time the Freezing Bird arrived, Smelly Ni and I had already reached our limit.

I will never forget the blue figure I saw before I fell into coma, that was the real God of Ice and Snow!"

The passionate voice even became a little shaky at the end.

God? Zhe was also in a trance.

He remembered that when he was in the research institute before, he asked Dr. Ohki why everyone called Lugia the God of the Sea instead of Kyogre. Obviously their abilities are not a mystery to humans. (Note 1)

Dr. Oki smiled at that time: "Tetsuya, you have to know that sometimes, the abilities of mythical beasts are not the basis for us humans to name them.

Compared to Kyogre, whose appearance means destruction, Lugia is the mythical beast that truly protects humans from natural disasters.

The title of the God of the Sea is not about ability, but about function."

From the perspective of the ocean elves, although both Lugia and Kyogre protect them, Kyogre, who intends to infinitely expand the ocean, is undoubtedly the real emperor.

For humans and elves on land, Lugia, who checks Kyogre and suppresses ocean uprisings, is the "God of the Sea" worthy of respect.

It can only be said that even if there is closeness, the feedback received from different perspectives will be different. This is inevitable unless humans can live freely in the ocean.

"What about Groudon? Didn't it destroy a lot of places?" Tetsuya subconsciously asked a silly question at that time.

"Yeah, but it also creates and expands a lot of places."

Dr. Omu was silent for a moment and gave a very truthful answer.

One of these two mythical enemies creates long periods of sunshine, causing droughts, and the other creates large amounts of rain clouds, causing floods. Neither is a good thing for humans.

At the same time, Groudon has the power to make rain clouds disappear and evaporate water with strong light and high temperature. He once appeared as a savior in front of people suffering from floods;

Kyogre has the power to create huge rain clouds that can cover the entire sky and cause heavy rain, and has saved people who were suffering from dry sunlight.

If the two mythical beasts didn't start fighting as soon as they met, people would even think that they were playing tricks on themselves.

Do you know how painful it is to have floods and droughts?

Although the power of the Freezing Bird is not as strong as theirs, its properties are the same.

People may not know about the three silly birds on the Orange Islands, but they definitely know that there is an "ice god" who often saves people living on the snow-white mountains in the capital.

It is also for this reason that the Alliance did not capture the Frozen Bird with great fanfare, but quietly protected it.

"Look, how beautiful it is."

The director suddenly pointed to the sky and sighed.

Zheye looked up and realized that at some point, auroras appeared in the sky one after another.

The dazzling and colorful auroras are accompanied by the refraction of snowflakes, and the whole world suddenly becomes extremely colorful.

"It is indeed beautiful." Tetsuya and his elves nodded unconsciously.

Such a scene has never appeared once in Kanto, where there is almost no snow.

Coupled with the rumors of the Frozen Bird, it becomes even more valuable.

.........

At the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

A group of black men wearing R-shaped clothing carrying heavy instruments raised their heads.

"Brother, it seems the target is back."

A young man with fine features said to his team leader.

"Hurry up, the first and second groups have completed their tasks, and we are the only one left. The boss is about to start his plan to rule the world, and we are an indispensable part!"

The team leader raised his hand enthusiastically: "Everything is for Team Rocket and Boss Sakaki!"

"Everything is for Team Rocket and Boss Sakaki!"

A deliberately suppressed voice sounded.

The members of Team Rocket quickly disappeared into the wind and snow.

.........

"But..." Zheye quickly recovered from the beautiful scenery, "Mr. Director, you still haven't told me the reason for this August snow."

"Do you know how the mythical beasts reproduce the next generation?"

The principal asked, raising his head and refusing to lower it.

Tetsuya shook his head.

Although he knew from the animation in his previous life that mythical beasts could definitely give birth, the method was unknown.

There are no doctoral research papers for him to read about this kind of thing. After all, there is no sample data, so he still doesn't understand it.

As an old man in the training family, the director seems to have some experience.

"Mythical beasts are currently considered unable to combine with each other to give birth to the next generation, but they can give birth to the next generation."

The aurora quickly dissipated, and the director reluctantly looked back at Tetsuya.

"Two ways." He explained despite Zheye's somewhat confused look, "The first way is that the divine beast can spend a lot of energy and cost to condense energy to combine into an elf egg, and the elf inside is the infancy of the divine beast.

The mythical beast born in this situation needs to go through a long period of growth, and at the same time, the strength of its parents will decline severely over a long period of time, and it will even be impossible to defeat some quasi-champion level elves.

At this time, it needs the protection of its followers or the blessing of the ethnic group.

Of course, there are very few mythical beasts that lay eggs. After all, their lifespans are far longer than those of ordinary elves, so there is no need to worry about this problem.

Usually only some bored mythical beasts would do this kind of thing in their prime."

Zheye nodded understandingly.

This must be the rule set by the alpaca for the mythical beasts in the elf world. Otherwise, if the power of the mythical beasts is not enough, the whole world will be at risk of destruction.

It's no wonder that the number of mythical beasts is pitifully small compared to ordinary elves, and the price is too high.

"What about the second way?" he asked.

"The second type..." the director raised his head again and sighed, "is to use one's own life and strength to welcome the birth of the next generation."

"The so-called using one's own life and strength to welcome the next generation means that the mythical beast that is about to reach the limit of its lifespan will try its best to give birth to a new offspring of the mythical beast.

The offspring of such a mythical beast will grow very fast, but the price is the premature death of the previous mythical beast."

Zhe also felt that he had spoken too early, and the price would be greater, one life for another.

But from the perspective of balance and development, it doesn’t seem to be unacceptable.

The director looked at the Snow White Mountain: "The God of Ice over there has lived for thousands of years, but he just happened to migrate here alone more than a thousand years ago.

Moreover, in recent decades, the environmental changes in the northern part of the Johto area have become more and more strange, and snowstorms occur from time to time.

Such signs indicate one thing, that is, the Ice God is preparing to give birth to his next generation, and he has chosen the second method."

"Using powerful force to warn and frighten those who have evil thoughts in order to protect the next generation from a short period of weakness?" Zheya quickly figured out the specific process.

The director nodded: "Although it lives alone, its follower team on the Snow White Mountain is still very strong, so there is no need to worry about safety. It's just a parent's mentality."

"The main reason is that the time when it runs out of the snow-capped mountains and the snowstorm falls is irregular. Maybe it will have turned into another freezing bird by then."

Zhe also gave another hypothesis.

"Maybe."

The director was noncommittal.

Only he, an old guy who has personally come into contact with the Frozen Bird and has lived here for more than 30 years, knows that the current Frozen Bird is definitely the same one as before.

However, he wished that everyone had the same idea as Tetsuya, so that the next generation of Frozen Birds would not be in danger at all.

The director only hopes that he can see the frozen bird again in his lifetime and express his gratitude to it in person for saving his life.

That time, he and Shou Shou Ni passed out immediately.

"Wow, snow!"

The sky gradually turns white, and the sun slowly rises from below the horizon.

The students’ screams of surprise came from the accommodation area not far away.

"Exercise in extreme weather is also a required course for ninjas. Today's training task is tentatively scheduled to be the Dance of Ice and Fire!"

The director put his hands behind his back and quickly returned to his usual appearance.

"Alidos!"

He called to his spirit.

"Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh"

The next moment, Tetsuya saw a black and red shadow swinging around the entire Ninja Academy like Spider-Man.

An enlarged version of the spider soon came to the director.

Note 1: Lugia’s ability was mentioned in Chapter 223. As for whether it is the weather or ocean currents, the two are closely related. There is no official statement, so it is difficult to say.
