Chapter 98: Comprehensive Anime Pokémon: Starting from Hunter x Hunter Chapter 38
It was indeed Honedge.
Luo Ge had some guesses as to why these two Pokémon would appear here.
The evolution of Yamask is Cofagrigus, which fits perfectly with this coffin.
And Honedge is a Ghost-type Pokémon; its appearance next to the king’s remains is also reasonable.
However...
Luo Ge looked at the two sleepy Pokémon and felt it was a bit strange.
These two Ghost-type Pokémon seemed to love sleeping quite a bit?
Luo Ge even suspected that if he just threw two balls, he could capture them directly.
Thinking of this, two "Dusk Balls" appeared in Luo Ge’s hand—items he had just obtained and could use now.
In a place like a cave, it is naturally more likely to capture them using "Dusk Balls."
The probability is three times that of a regular Poké Ball.
With a gentle tap of the two "Dusk Balls," Yamask and Honedge turned into two red lights and were sucked inside.
Luo Ge’s eyes narrowed, curious if he could succeed in capturing them like this, and he stared intently at the two "Dusk Balls."
The two "Dusk Balls," adorned with black and green patterns, were not only identical in appearance but also shook in a similar fashion.
After a simple shake, he heard two prompts sound in unison.
"Ding-dong."
Both were captured successfully at the same time!
He didn't know if it was the triple probability of the "Dusk Ball" or the fact that neither of them had woken up yet.
Capturing Yamask and Honedge was the easiest time for Luo Ge so far.
Before, he at least had to use some food to lure them; this time, he succeeded without even needing to lure them.
The sudden sound also interrupted Biscuit’s attention, and she glanced over, but only saw two unknown balls.
There was nothing else besides that.
Thinking it was another one of Luo Ge’s new items, and sighing at the number of items Luo Ge had, Biscuit continued to admire the crown.
Casually putting away the "Dusk Balls," Luo Ge turned his gaze back to the mountain of gold and silver beside him.
There wasn't much in the coffin; excluding Yamask and Honedge, there were only the remains and the crown.
So, the remaining valuable items were naturally the countless gold and silver treasures nearby.
Needless to say, he naturally tried his best to put everything into his "Pokémon Backpack."
Biscuit had said beforehand that she only wanted the crown and that it wasn't convenient for her to take the other things, so she left them all to Luo Ge.
Fortunately, after a month of training, his strength had improved significantly, and the capacity of his backpack had expanded quite a bit.
Finally, he was able to take away most of the gold and silver jewelry, and for the rest, Luo Ge decided that since they were there, he would let Amoke take them.
According to Luo Ge’s estimation, this amount of gold and silver jewelry would be an astronomical figure, at least much more than the money of the Ella family.
Now, even if he needed money, he wouldn't necessarily have to get it from the Ella family; instead, he could use this money to expand his family’s influence.
Currently, it was only a second-rate gang, but Luo Ge’s plan was not limited to this level.
He wanted to build a behemoth of a force!
As for how to proceed, he already had a plan in mind.
After handling things simply, Luo Ge led Biscuit away, and the bodies of the two men in suits were also destroyed.
After arriving at the outskirts of the Dorok ruins, Amoke took his leave and parted ways with the two.
Before leaving, he thanked Luo Ge and Biscuit again and also indicated that he would follow Luo Ge’s advice and try to participate in the Hunter Exam.
However, not long after Luo Ge walked out, he discovered that the two girls had run over from the hotel at some point.
"Luo Ge!"
Machi and Shizuku saw Luo Ge and the others from afar, and the blood suddenly returned to their pale little faces, revealing expressions of surprise.
They rushed to Luo Ge, ignoring everything else, and hugged him tightly with their arms wide open, fearing he would disappear in the next second.
Shizuku, who was a step slower, was stunned for a moment, feeling that it didn't seem appropriate not to hug something, so she went to hug Biscuit beside them.
Biscuit: So, am I a substitute?
Luo Ge was a bit startled and didn't react for a moment as to why the two girls were acting like this.
However, feeling Machi sobbing in his arms, his eyes softened, and he gently stroked her head, comforting her:
"Aren't I standing here perfectly fine? What's wrong?"
Could it be that Machi saw the blood on him and was worried?
That still didn't explain why the two of them came over.
Machi hugged Luo Ge tightly, and the holes in Luo Ge’s clothes and the bloodstains were clear at a glance, making her heart ache.
Clearly, Luo Ge had just experienced a bloody battle, and just looking at his appearance, she could imagine how intense the fight was.
Machi buried her head, not letting Luo Ge see her face at this moment, and said in a trembling voice:
"Just now... Eevee suddenly disappeared."
"So Shizuku and I were worried about you..."
Luo Ge suddenly realized; so that was it.
Because Eevee’s disappearance was quite sudden, Machi and Shizuku were worried that he had met with an accident, so they specifically ran over to check.
"Ahem!"
Biscuit coughed twice, her expression helpless as she said: "You guys don't even think about it, I was by his side, wasn't I?"
"How could I let anything happen to him?"
"Can you have a little confidence in me, and also..."
"Can you go hug Luo Ge?"
The last sentence was directed at Shizuku.
"Oh, oh, but... Luo Ge has no room for me to hug."
Shizuku blinked her eyes, then let go and took two steps back.
Hearing this, Machi’s ears gradually turned red, and under Luo Ge’s persuasion, she also let go of her tight hug.
Luo Ge nodded and said softly: "Don't worry, let alone that I’m capable of protecting myself, Biscuit is here too."
"I won't have any accidents; I promise you."
Even if it was for Machi and the others, he would try his best to survive.
"Bui..."
Eevee, standing on Luo Ge’s shoulder, also jumped into Machi’s arms, looking at her with cute eyes, wanting to make her happy.
"Eevee."
Machi hugged the soft Eevee, and her panicked mood gradually disappeared, slowly returning to her usual calm state.
Whenever she encountered things related to Luo Ge, it was easy for her to lose her composure.
Calming down, Machi realized two things.
First, improving her strength was urgent; she had to work harder, otherwise, things like this where she felt helpless would happen again and again.
Second...
She really couldn't seem to live without Luo Ge.
Looking at Luo Ge, who was still smiling and comforting her in a soft tone despite being covered in wounds and having just experienced a great battle.
Machi knew how important Luo Ge was to her.
After the incident at the Dorok ruins, Luo Ge and Biscuit each had their own gains, and the plan would get back on track to continue training.
This battle not only showed that Luo Ge’s training results were excellent but also reflected the areas he lacked.
That was the lack of Nen and the fact that he hadn't mastered advanced techniques.
For Nen users of the same level, Luo Ge’s Nen capacity was considered superior, exceeding the average by quite a bit.
But when facing a decent second-rate Nen user like the man in the suit, this advantage became a disadvantage.
His Nen capacity was far from that of Nen users who had been training for years, or even decades or longer.
So he still needed to strengthen it.
Secondly, there were advanced techniques, such as "Gyo," "Ken," and "Ryu" used by the man in the suit during the battle.
For Nen users of the same level, without the influence of Nen abilities, the side more proficient in advanced techniques would naturally win.
Not to mention that Luo Ge didn't even know advanced techniques.
As Biscuit said, Luo Ge being able to defeat the man in the suit and the man in sunglasses at this level could be called a miracle.
If he could skillfully use advanced techniques, his strength would soar to an unimaginable height again.
So the subsequent training plan focused on Nen capacity and advanced techniques.
Considering the importance of actual combat, Biscuit led the three of them to change to a different training ground.
Still in the Begerosse Union, but a bit further north.
That place was quite famous throughout the six continents, even more famous than the Dorok ruins.
It was called the "Forest of Beasts."
It is said that there are many ordinary beasts on the outskirts, while fierce magical beasts and rare beasts live in the inner circle.
Among them, there is no shortage of rare ingredients in the world, such as the Long-Tusked Boar with meat as clear as a gemstone, and so on.
That was also the second stop Biscuit chose.
Three days later,
Bang!
A wild boar about the size of a car fell to the ground.
It flattened a large patch of lawn and kicked up a cloud of dust.
The surface of the wild boar had thick red skin, and its body was exceptionally sturdy; if it charged, it could easily knock down tree after tree.
Inside its mouth was a row of sharp, saw-like teeth, and there were two long tusks protruding, similar to a saber-toothed tiger.
There were also striped patterns on its body, making it look exceptionally fierce.
This was one of the more powerful species on the outskirts of the "Forest of Beasts"—the Long-Tusked Boar.
Ordinary people only had the option of fleeing when encountering such a creature, and even veteran hunters dared not provoke it easily.
Yet such an existence was killed by Luo Ge with a casual sword strike, its breath gone, lying on the ground with only a red line appearing on its neck.
Luo Ge looked at the fallen behemoth and looked at the Honedge in his hand with surprise; he didn't expect the power to be so astonishing.
Honedge is a Pokémon, that’s true, but it can also be held in the hand and used as a sword to attack.
This was also Luo Ge’s whimsical idea.
Imagine if an enemy thought he was a swordsman and knocked away his "sword," he could then let Honedge launch a sneak attack.
Who would have thought that a sword was actually a Nen beast with self-awareness that could move on its own?
More importantly, Luo Ge discovered that as long as he held Honedge, he would subconsciously use powerful sword moves in his mind.
As smooth as flowing water, as if he had been immersed in swordsmanship for a long time; as long as he held Honedge, he was a master of swordsmanship.
This might have something to do with Honedge itself.
As for the power, it was also astonishing; the sharp Honedge could cut through the fur of the Long-Tusked Boar with a casual swipe, without even using a skill.
