Chapter 652 Nimo Trio

Hoenn region, Green Ridge City Port.

After ending the call with Luo Mu, Nimo turned to Shinji and Shizuka behind him and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's less than a month before the Caiyou Conference starts, we have to speed up."

"it is good."

Shinji and Shizuka nodded slightly, a serious look on their faces.

In the official recommended challenge gym ranking of the Hoenn region, the Glass Gym is the eighth gym ranked last.

Whether it is Adam, who has retired but occasionally manages the gym as an acting gym leader, or Mikoli, who is the champion of the Hoenn region and also runs the Liuli Gym.

Both trainers are very powerful and famous trainers, and Mikoli is even the league champion of the Hoenn region.

I heard that Liuli City is currently hosting the "Mikoli Cup" organized by him, and the probability of encountering each other in the gym challenge may increase dramatically.

Opportunities to compete against champions are rare, so you must prepare well. Wait.

A hint of hesitation suddenly appeared on Shinji's expressionless face.

Champion, aren't you traveling with us?

He keeps asking us to fight every day, which has delayed our travel progress a lot. If this continues, we will be caught up by that idiot Xiaozhi.

Shinji and Shizuka looked at each other and suddenly they were no longer nervous, thinking the same thing.

However, the short-distance practice that was planned in advance should still be continued.

In order to deal with the Liuli Gym, which specializes in water attributes, they must find a place among the star-like islands in the vast waters of the Hoenn region to conduct special training on water attributes.

It was for this reason that they came to the port here specifically, intending to rent a ship to go out to sea.

The cost of renting a boat is actually quite high, but who knows why they have a rich woman in their team? Even though Shinji and Shizuka were a little embarrassed to take advantage of Nemo at the beginning, they were still reluctant to do so under Nemo's tireless and continuous invitations to fight regardless of the occasion.

The two of them suddenly realized.

——Just think of it as compensation for the mental and physical torture you have endured.

Confirmed that all supplies were prepared and nothing was missing.

The three of them came together to a corner of the port, where the ship they had agreed to meet was docked.

Even though they were already sick of sailing in the Hoenn region, they actually had no experience in going out to sea, and had to rely on the hired veteran sailors for everything.

After the three people boarded the boat, the boat slowly set sail as the sound of the propeller stirring the sea water was heard.

After sailing on the sea for about half a day, Nemo and the other two quickly selected an island based on the sailor's advice.

Although this place is far from the port, the surrounding aquatic Pokémon ecology is quite rich, and the island also has a good natural ecology.

More importantly, this place is within the signal coverage of Green Ridge City, so the three of them can train here without worrying about not being able to return.

"Then it's settled. I'll pick you up in three days."

The heroic sailor waved to the few people and sailed away.

The three of them also began to divide the work tacitly.

Shinji put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the island, "I'm going to find a place to camp."

"Then I'll prepare lunch." Shizuka smiled sweetly and prepared to cook on the wide beach.

"I'm going to fight. Oh no, help you eliminate potentially aggressive wild Pokémon!"

Nimo's eyes lit up and she ran towards the woods on the island like a happy pony.

After running only a few steps, she slowed down and began to breathe heavily.

This is the daily travel life of three people.

Shinji is the calmest and most reliable one, who has worked hard to acquire a lot of knowledge about the outdoors and is a total know-it-all.

As a former Miss Joy, Shizuka’s logistical abilities are at their best.

Nemo has high fighting power, money, and food!

Last year, the composition of Nemo, Papa and Pipa's traveling trio was similar to the current one.

The three-person team, which had already become very skilled in cooperation, quickly prepared to spend the night on the island and had lunch.

Next comes the time for training.

"Dotai Turtle, Bone Pattern Giant Crocodile, Circle Bear, Snow Boy, Kodora, Iron-faced Ninja, all of you come out!"

Shinji used his Poké Ball control skills that Nemo envied very much, and threw six red and white Poké Balls into the sky at the same time.

Six red beams shot onto the beach, and six Pokémon appeared at the same time.

Except for the two veterans that Shinji captured in the Padia region, and his initial Pokémon, Tortoise.

During his travels in the Hoenn region, he also managed to fill up his team.

Snow Boy was captured at the end of last year, but its evolution requires a high level of training, and Shinji also plans to save money to buy an awakening stone, so it has not evolved yet.

Kodara and the Iron-faced Ninja were captured during the journey after returning to Hoenn.

Kodora evolved from Kokodora, which was hatched from a Pokémon egg given to Shinji by an old man in Kamahen Town.

The Iron-Faced Ninja is an evolved form that was captured directly, so there is no matching Shedding Ninja.

Shinji had heard Luo Mu talk about the magical Pokémon called Ninjago, and had considered catching one if he had the chance.

But Shinji was immediately attracted by the Iron Ninja's faster speed than its peers, and its outstanding perseverance for a bug-type Pokémon.

In addition, his team currently lacks a speed attacker, so after some effort, Shinji successfully subdued this iron-masked ninja.

Seeing Shinji releasing Pokémon, Shizuka also threw out five Poké Balls, "Chucky Egg, Porygon II, Bulbasaur, Armored Bird, and Swamplord, it's time for the event~"

The Poké Ball popped open, and five Pokémon that looked extremely reliable appeared on the beach with their backs to Shizuka.

Shizuka has captured fewer Pokémon, and even though she is about to challenge the last gym, she is still one spot short.

This is also related to her desire to find a Pokémon that is in sync with her and that she likes.

She captured the Armored Bird in a canyon in the Hoenn region at the end of last year at Luo Mu's suggestion.

Swamplord is actually the same as Shinji. He was hatched from a Pokémon egg forced into him by an old woman when he was challenging a gym in Kamahen Town.

It's just that Pokémon like Wooper will evolve very quickly after being properly nurtured, which makes Shizuka feel a little regretful that she can't hold the cute Wooper in her arms.

——In fact, Nemo also received a fairy egg like the two of them.

The elf egg hatched a little earth dragon.

It looks ugly and cute. Although it has not yet spread in the Hoenn region, it has actually been confirmed to have an evolved form in the Padia region.

After collecting the Poké Balls that had fallen to the ground, the two did not intend to start fighting directly on the beach, but began to look for traces of water Pokémon on the beach. They also prepared an inflatable rowing boat that could float in the offshore waters, and when necessary, they could sit in the rowing boat to look for wild water Pokémon in deeper waters to fight.

I heard that the Liuli Gym is a water battle site, and the only footholds are some floating platforms of varying sizes.

In order to adapt to that kind of fighting style, such training is necessary.

The two of them didn't care at all where Nimo had gone to on the island.

After all, with Nemo's strength, there is almost no wild Pokémon that can defeat her.

She must be happily looking for wild Pokémon on the island to fight with right now, so there's no need to worry.

Training time always passes quickly. In the blink of an eye, the dim sun has overlapped with the horizon and the sky is filled with dusk.

Shinji and Shizuka, who were taking a break, were preparing dinner, and wisps of smoke were rising above the island.

While gently stirring the curry in the pot, Shizuka kept looking into the woods behind her, "Why hasn't Nemo come back yet?"

Shinji, who was silently preparing the dishes, paused for a moment and said expressionlessly, "She is usually like this. If it doesn't work, I'll ask the Iron-faced Ninja to call her later."

"Ok."

Shizuka sighed and focused her attention on her cooking again.

After all, she is the oldest among the traveling companions and has already worked at the Pokémon Center. Compared to Shinji, who likes to eat dry food to save unnecessary time, and Nemo, who has never cooked for herself since she was a child, this job can only fall on her.

Shinji also finished placing the dishes at this time, and was about to call the Iron-masked Ninja over to ask it to go to the woods to call Nemo back for dinner.

But in the peripheral of his sight, the originally calm sea surface suddenly began to waver.

".What is that?"

Shinji frowned slightly, his attention completely focused on that place.

——Then, he saw it.

In the vast ocean, a huge deep blue submarine completely emerged from the water accompanied by splashing waves.

There was a huge white symbol painted very casually on the surface of the submarine, and Shinji recognized what the symbol represented.

——Water fleet.

That huge submarine is a submarine from the water fleet!
The moment he realized this fact, Shinji's first reaction was to turn around and shout at the resting Iron Ninja: "Use "Wind" to blow away the smoke and flames!"

The Iron-masked Ninja didn't understand why, but he immediately responded to his trainer's orders.

Seeing Shizuka's dull expression, the Iron-masked Ninja vibrated his transparent thin wings at a faster and higher frequency, and the strong wind blew away all the flames and rising smoke in the firewood pile.

Even so, Shinji was still not satisfied, so he asked the Snow Boy to blow out the "Freezing Wind" to completely freeze the extinguished firewood pile.

".Walk!"

After doing all this, Shinji grabbed Shizuka's clothes and pretended to walk into the woods.

All the Pokémon followed, and as for the pots, pans, stools, tables and chairs that had not been cleaned up in time, Shinji simply abandoned them.

When they reached the woods, Shinji, feeling relieved, pointed over there and explained to Shizuka why he suddenly did this series of things.

".Water Fleet!?"

Shizuka covered her mouth and made a surprised sound.

Hiding behind the trees, she looked cautiously in that direction.

Sure enough, the submarine with the pattern representing the water fleet was still floating quietly on the sea, and it was unknown when it would dive underwater and disappear without a trace.

The three of them have been traveling in the Hoenn region for quite some time.

Naturally, I have also heard of the notorious names of the "Water Fleet" and "Magazine Team", two evil organizations in the Hoenn region.

Here, a submarine belonging to the water fleet actually appeared?
Shizuka finally understood why Shinji immediately destroyed the pile of firewood that might attract attention over there, and then pulled her away without hesitation.

Indeed, on such an isolated island far away from the land, exposing one's existence to what might be the headquarters of an evil organization is not a good decision and is likely to bring disaster.

This has nothing to do with strength.

Shinji immediately sent the Iron-faced Ninja to look for Nemo, and together with Shizuka, he kept a close eye on the movements of the submarine in the distant sea.

If the other party discovered what they left on the beach, or showed any intention of approaching the island, they would immediately retreat deeper into the woods.

However, judging from the fact that the submarine has not made any unusual movements, the other party should not have noticed the situation here.

Meanwhile, inside the submarine.

After disguising herself and blending into the water fleet, Xijiana looked at the picture that she had deliberately erased from the screen, with a slight smile on her face.

"Really? You guys are so unlucky that you even encountered a submarine surfacing."

"Luckily I found it. Otherwise, given the tense atmosphere in the water fleet, they would probably have surrounded the island for a search."

As she muttered to herself, her eyes fell on the two water fleet soldiers who were knocked unconscious by her.

She knows how to use her cell phone and is more receptive to new things than other Meteor People.

But this does not mean that she is a computer expert.

Therefore, her solution to this problem was quite simple and crude. She just needed to knock out the person responsible for monitoring this area and wait for the submarine to sink again.

Anyway, the time for the Water Fleet and the Lava Team to trade is not long, so Xijiana doesn't care whether she will be exposed.

"The Aqua Fleet has already sent spies into the Magma Team's submarine to release the captured Kyogre. This saves me some trouble. All I have to do now is release Groudon."

On the edge of the Hoenn region, near the Kanto Sea.

Luo Mu, who had enjoyed three days of relief in the Kamuyan Pain Relief, also came here riding on the Moltres.

Because Kamahiro Town is located deep inland in the Hoenn region, this is the only place to come if you want to encounter Lugia and Dragonite without causing panic.

By the way, this sea area is in the opposite direction to the sea area at the other end of the Hoenn region, where Ruri City, Green Ridge City and Saiyu City are located.

The aftermath of the upcoming battle between Groudon and Kyogre will not affect this side at all, nor can it affect this side.

After all, that would be equivalent to the fall of the entire Hoenn region.

——But is that possible?

Not to mention the different-colored Rayquaza that might not have gone far, even Hoenn Rayquaza is still in its active period. If the two big guys fight too much, it will naturally appear to stop it.

Thinking like this, Luo Mu touched the silver feather on his chest above the sea without any psychological pressure, calling for Lugia to come!

Probably because the distance is very close.

He didn't have to wait long before a huge creature began to surface from beneath the calm sea.
