"I gave you such a long time, but he is still safe and sound?"

"I'm very sorry. He is really very alert. He rarely stays in the underground city for a long time. He eats and rests on the ground. And Liuge..."

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense. Tell me, what are you going to do next?"

"...I have contacted the pawns on the Vicious Dog Team and successfully stirred up the other team's emotions. When the game starts, someone will go to stop him!"

"Hmph, I hope so. If I don't see his legs after the game, I'll take your legs!"

"I'm so sorry!"

"get out!"

"Yes!"

In the darkness, a figure kept nodding and bowing, as if bowing to someone, until a beeping sound was heard and then he cursed under his breath.

"Stupid baldy! How can you understand my hardship? Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!"

What they are saying about striking at the forces under Sojiro's command and preventing the other team from expanding again, to put it bluntly, isn't it just embarrassing?

Not only did his trick fail, but it was also spread everywhere. Now that he can't make a big deal out of a small matter, he resorts to conspiracy again. Does it have anything to do with him?

Whoever does something stupid should be blamed!

He doesn't even dare to kill others and only dares to break their legs. Haha, ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!

If he hadn't been on this pirate ship and couldn't get off, he really wouldn't want to hang out with such a short-sighted boss.

Being an undercover is so sad.

"Saruwatari! Why did you spend so much time in the bathroom? Do you want to go to the hospital? Seriously, you might be sick!"

"Come on, come on!"

Saruwatari shuddered, pretending to pull up his pants as he walked out of the dark alley, meeting the curious gazes of Kashiwagi and Otsuka, "Hehehe, excuse me."

"Drink more water. Sometimes drinking water can solve many problems."

Kashiwagi patted Saruwatari's shoulder earnestly.

"I will." He chuckled.

If you want to defeat your enemy, you have to understand your enemy. Saruwatari is well aware of the etiquette of the aesthetics of backstabbing and finds an opportunity to communicate with Kashiwagi early on.

And taking advantage of the opportunity when the other person is ignored by the people around him, he quickly becomes close to him.

By now, Kashiwagi probably trusted him completely. Saruwatari occasionally began to imagine what kind of wonderful expression the other party would show when he was backstabbed.

Is it disbelief? Or heartache? Or despair?

"Hey hey hey..."

Saruwatari couldn't help but laugh, completely unaware of the weird looks from Kashiwagi and Otsuka beside him.

'What's wrong with this kid?'

"I don't know. It's an old problem, you know."

The two exchanged glances, but didn't take it too seriously. This guy usually liked to daydream and giggle, looking a little abnormal.

Return to the arena and continue the battle until the Trainer and Pokémon are exhausted.

Ever since the Lucky Egg came into existence, Cypress's Cocoa Dora has a much stronger battery life, and it no longer falls to the ground after hitting a few times as before.

He asked Kokodora if he felt tired fighting like this every day and whether he needed to reduce the intensity appropriately.

The latter, however, shook his head frantically to indicate that it was not hard at all and that any more would be fine.

It was difficult for Kashiwagi to determine whether this answer was sincere. Kokodora had been abandoned before, and she might have the idea that she could not stay with him if she did not fight.

Therefore, he often talked with Kokodora and did not want it to have this psychological burden.

It would be great if you really enjoyed it.

However, Kashiwagi felt that the smile on the other party's face every time he and Kokodora won should be genuine.

Kokodora's efforts also enabled it to reach level 33. Starting from level 28, it used up the level rewards three times and increased its level by two levels through independent combat. Its progress can be described as very fast.

After so many days of treatment, Jigglypuff has become quite skilled in all aspects and his habit of being nervous all the time has improved significantly.

I just often need him to give me a gentle push, just like giving encouragement, which is okay in the short term, but definitely not in the long term.

There is too big a difference between active and passive. It should be independent and should muster up its own courage.

"Cultivating Pokémon is really a big science."

He stroked the two poke balls in his hand.

As the game approached, the girls and boys in the venue became noticeably more anxious, which was passed on to the Pokémon, causing the battle to become very impatient and the shouts to become rapid.

“It makes me a little nervous.”

Kashiwagi took a deep breath to adjust his mood. The trainer's state would affect Pokémon. In order to ensure that Kokodora and the others had sufficient combat power, he had to remain calm.

"Life or death depends on this one."

Chapter 27 Live Rewards

Looking forward to looking forward to it.

The competition that would decide Kashiwagi's future fate slowly began.

Although Ayana, who was suspected to be the team leader, showed up last night and told them to go to bed early and get up early, not many of them could actually sleep peacefully. After gathering at the venue, thirteen out of the fifteen people dozed off.

Among the remaining two, one fell asleep while standing, and the other one was silently checking his equipment. It was the energetic Kashiwagi.

"You are so energetic?" Otsuka was surprised.

He wore a headband today with crooked patterns drawn on it, which seemed to represent some kind of determination.

"It's just a Pokémon move."

Kashiwagi glanced at him and continued to adjust his clothes.

Jigglypuff’s singing is simply a magical skill for insomniacs. It only takes a few notes to take you into a dream and give you a sweet night’s sleep.

"Ah?" Otsuka was a little confused, but before he could continue asking, Ayana clapped her hands.

"Alright, cheer up!"

The sound was not particularly loud, but it was enough to wake up the dozing people, and the person who fell asleep while standing also opened his eyes.

Ayana looked at everyone and said, "A car will come to pick you up soon. Remember, you can only win this game and you cannot lose. There is no right to bargain. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

There was a unanimous response.

After the lecture, she remained silent until a hover bus arrived and honked twice.

Kashiwagi looked around and saw that the person driving the car was a strong woman with broad shoulders and a thick waist, whose arms seemed like they could run a horse. If it weren't for the obvious rise and fall of her chest, her short hair and strong facial lines would have made it difficult to tell her apart.

"Hehehe! Little brats! Are you ready to set off to hell? Hahaha!"

She laughed wildly.

Ayana kicked open the car door and walked up, "I'm counting on you this time too!"

"Don't worry! My driving skills can't be stopped even by ten Pokémon ambushing me!" The female driver honked the horn in a heroic tone, "Why are you all standing there?"

Kashiwagi took the opportunity to step forward, and Otsuka followed suit, and the others followed suit.

The space inside the bus was not very big, but it was definitely enough to seat the fifteen of them. After the last person got on the bus, the female driver started the bus without caring whether they had found a seat or not.

The inside suddenly began to shake violently.

"It's stable this time."

Otsuka, who barely managed to sit still, whispered, "This guy was the one who led the Suna Group last time. We will definitely be able to reach the venue safely."

Kashiwagi on the side: “???”

Seeing that he was confused, Otsuka quickly added: “You probably don’t know, there have been cases in the past where attacking forces were attacked midway through the competition, and everything went wrong.

"As a result, every time we hold this kind of competition, there will be an ambush along the way. A few years ago, the boss went out and made a verbal agreement for a peace alliance, and the situation has eased. But the scumbags of the Vicious Dog Team are likely to launch a surprise attack!"

"Is it true? What kind of person would be called a scum by you, Otsuka?"

Kashiwagi pretended to be shocked.

"..."

Otsuka was like a goose with its throat strangled. All his desire to talk disappeared. He looked frustrated and embarrassed, and turned his head away, not saying anything.

Kashiwagi looked normal, and even looked at the former with a slight smile.

From thinking that bullying the weak is justified, to feeling ashamed and embarrassed by the relevant ridicule, and then subconsciously thinking that this method is low-level, even if it is just a reaction of face, he thinks it is a great progress.

He wasn't the first one to be bullied by Otsuka, but he hoped he would be the last.

We must sympathize with and take care of those who are bullied, but we cannot leave the bullies alone, which will lead to more victims.

Both physical destruction and consciousness transformation are possible. Kashiwagi is currently tentatively experimenting with the latter, relying on the fact that he owes Otsuka millions and the other party dare not turn against him at will.

Well, the one who owes money is the boss.

On the other hand, he had heard of the reputation of the Vicious Dog Team. As a second-rate force in Yellow Iron Town, the Quicksand Team had a long-standing grudge against them, and the two sides had fought with Pokémon countless times.

The Quicksand Team now has a mine that they stole.

The two sides also refused to give in in the war of words. The Quicksand Team denounced the members of the Vicious Dog Team as inhuman scum, and even spared no labor force including ten-year-old children, forcing them into the mine to mine.

The Vicious Dog Team believes that the Quicksand Team are a bunch of money-hungry lackeys. As long as they are paid enough, they will wag their tails and beg for mercy like dog Pokémon, and may even bite their companions. They have no bottom line at all.

Whether it is true or not is another matter, just curse me for what I wish.

hum-

With a low hum, the hover bus sped into an underground passage and soon appeared on the surface. Through the dirty glass, an endless barren desert emerged.

Gray, brown and red are the main colors here. There are layers of rocks, gravel and huge rocks. Even the drought-resistant plants have a withered smell and live half-dead on this land.

At the end of the sight, you can see several bare cliffs. Just a glance at the scorching sun hanging overhead makes your throat tighten, and you subconsciously replenish water.
