Chapter 34: The Impact of the Battle
Chapter 34: The Impact of the Battle
In this world, there is no Nurse Joy at the Pokémon Center.
The person who received Guihai and Shilei was the head of the Elf Center.
A woman in her thirties.
She wore a doctor's white coat over a shirt and trousers, and her hair was tied in a ponytail, making her look very capable.
"Gym Leader Shi, were you fighting just now? Why was there such a loud commotion coming from the Rock Gym?"
Could it be that those guys from the Revival Society have launched another attack?
Behind the person in charge was a pink lucky egg, looking at Shi Lei with doubt and worry, waiting for his answer.
Shi Lei smiled and shook his head: "No, I just had a match with someone."
"Director Lin, don't worry. I've destroyed the Revival Society's stronghold in Diyan City. Only a few small fry are left on the run; they can't cause any real trouble."
"Battle?" The head of the Pokémon Center, whom Shi Lei referred to as Director Lin, was taken aback upon hearing this.
Then, in surprise, he said, "What kind of battle could make you almost destroy a gym? If the battle hadn't taken place at the Earth Rock Gym and hadn't been within a controllable range, this place would be surrounded by prosecutors by now."
As if to prove his point, Director Lin pointed to the prosecutor's vehicle outside with the Alliance logo.
"Look, the alliance's elite teams have all been mobilized."
They began to look in the direction Director Lin was pointing.
The prosecutors waiting there seemed to have spotted Shi Lei and came over.
Shi Lei then realized that he had been so focused on fighting Gui Hai.
I forgot to inform the Alliance prosecutors beforehand, which made them think something serious had happened again.
So much so that they sent out an elite squad to be on guard.
Shi Lei scratched his hair and smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, I got too excited during the match and made you all worry."
Just then, three prosecutors dressed in black uniforms from the Alliance walked over.
Two men and one woman.
It was the same team that had previously hunted down the remnants of the Revival Society who had been killed by Ghost Sea.
They had just had a day off.
This afternoon, I suddenly received orders from my superiors to come and check the details of the battle at the Earth Rock Gym.
Since the matter involved the safety of Rock City, their team rushed there without stopping, only to find that the Rock City Gym was completely closed.
They couldn't get in, and no one answered their messages.
The only option was to temporarily block the surrounding roads, and Director Lin, who was in the vicinity and at the Pokémon Center, was on guard against any potential dangers.
In other words, the Earth Rock Gym was built at the foot of a rocky mountain near the edge of the city, with few people living around it, in order to take into account trainers' ability to raise Pokémon.
Otherwise, the commotion at the Earth Rock Gym would have already caused chaos.
Shi Lei has finally come out.
They felt much more at ease.
However, he then became puzzled by the battle fluctuations in the Earth Rock Gym.
I don't understand what happened that almost made Shi Lei demolish the dojo.
"Master Shi, what happened? Are you injured?"
The squad leader noticed that Shi Lei looked disheveled from the battle and asked him about it with concern.
Then, as was his habit, he glanced around at the surroundings and the people present.
Nothing unusual was found, and everyone present was an acquaintance, except...
The squad leader's eyes suddenly narrowed.
He saw Gui Hai standing not far from Shi Lei.
Wearing a black trench coat.
He had a ghost mask hanging on his left shoulder and a long sword at his waist.
Although he was just standing there, the squad leader felt that Gui Hai didn't belong in this environment.
There was a strange sense of danger.
Moreover, his partner Arcanine was frantically sending him warnings of danger from the Poké Ball on his waist.
It seems they encountered some very dangerous creature.
Shi Lei saw that the squad leader had noticed Gui Hai and laughed.
He took two steps toward the direction of the Ghost Sea.
He suddenly stopped just as he was about to step into the area within two meters of the sea of ghosts.
Although he didn't know the details of this Alliance prosecutor, his affinity with nature as a superstar had already made him notice the difference.
With Guihai's earlier reminder, he didn't need to do anything unnecessary.
He stopped about two meters away from Ghost Sea and introduced the Pokémon Center director and elite team from Rocky City.
"What happened today was due to my negligence that caused everyone to misunderstand. I was just playing against a friend and I didn't expect it to cause such a commotion. I'm really sorry."
"The one I'm battling is Mr. Guihai, the League Inspector, who is also a Champion-level trainer at the Tower of the Lost."
"King-level?"
"The Alliance Prosecutor?"
Two gasps of surprise rang out from the elite squad of the Alliance.
The man and the woman each grasped a different key point in Shi Lei's words.
At the same time, they also made their captain frown, looking at the long sword at Guihai's waist, his eyes flashing as if he had thought of something.
Gui Hai nodded to the Alliance team and Director Lin, then took out the illustration given to him by Long Cang when he became an Alliance prosecutor, confirming his identity.
Then, amidst the astonished and incredulous gazes of everyone, he took out his Poké Ball and said, "Could you please heal our Pokémon first?"
Director Lin was somewhat surprised by Gui Hai's age and wondered how he managed to fight against Shi Lei.
But still, she dutifully prepared to take the Poké Ball from Ghostsea's hand and let Blissey heal it.
However, just as she was about to step forward, Guihai took a step back.
Ghostsea releases Gengar and has it hand the Poké Ball to Blissey.
Director Lin was slightly taken aback, but then assumed that Gui Hai simply didn't like interacting with people, so he didn't take it seriously.
First, I took Shi Lei and Gui Hai's spirit to recover.
Taking this opportunity, Shi Lei also briefly explained to the three prosecutors that he was not attacked, but rather fought with someone.
The three-person team listened quietly to Shi Lei's story.
His gaze kept sweeping over Gui Hai.
It was as if he wanted to imprint the image of Oni-kai in his mind.
They had never even considered such a young Elite Four Trainer, let alone heard of them.
But now it truly appeared before them.
They just felt like they weren't fully awake yet.
The only female member even secretly pinched her thigh to make sure she wasn't dreaming.
“Kou Jie”.
Just as Shi Lei was about to have a conversation with Mayor Di Yan, a chubby little black-purple figure floated out of the Pokémon Center.
She was holding a nutrient egg produced by a lucky egg in her arms, with several dark purple Poké Balls floating around her.
It flew to Guihai's side, stuck out its scarlet tongue, and licked Guihai's cheek.
“Kou Jie”.
Gui Hai smiled, put the Poké Ball away, and then said to Shi Lei, "Gym Leader Shi, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. We can spar again later."
"Okay, I've already contacted the nursery. If you want to go there, just tell them my name."
After thanking him, Ghost Sea prepared to leave the Pokémon Center with Gengar.
However, the leader of the three-person team suddenly called out to him.
"Wait a minute, Ghost Sea King, there's something I'd like to ask you."
