Chapter 145

Besides, when Ash was riding the Wind Speed Dog in pursuit of Team Rocket, he learned to let his heart merge with the Wind Speed Dog.

Soon they caught up with Team Rocket; at this point, Ash and the Wind Speed Dog were already familiar, they intercepted the fleeing Wind Speed Dog and successfully blasted them away with electricity.

They managed to deliver the Fire Stone safely to its destination.

Ash and his companions continued their journey, found a wooden cabin to rest along the way. After getting up, Brock did not prepare breakfast for everyone as usual, and discovered that Brock had fallen ill.

They left Brock to rest in the wooden cabin, while Ash and Xiaoxia took care of the Poké Ball.

Although there were many mishaps, overall it was still not bad.

The Big Rock Snake and Little Fist Stone managed to brighten their bodies with difficulty, looking at Ash with lingering fear, a hint of wariness in their eyes, afraid that Ash would again let the Little Saw Croc use Water Gun on them.

When Ash went out to look for ingredients, he happened to run into Team Rocket.

Enemies meeting, they immediately started fighting.

Team Rocket had just collected food and also wanted to capture Pikachu, but were defeated together by Ash's Poké Ball.

The freshly collected food was all given to Ash, and they made a wedding dress for Ash.

【Wuzang: Shameless, too shameless, you little brat, you also have the nerve, we just finished collecting!】

【Xiaocilang: We want to protest!!!】

【Miaomiao: Exactly, they even snatched our food!】

【Xiaosheng: It was you who started it, you deserved it!】

【Xiaomao: If you didn't make a move, nothing would have happened!】

"How is Xiaoxia?"

Yinghua's gaze was suddenly drawn to Xiaoxia sitting beside her; her expression was completely different from usual, appearing unusually heavy, even a bit desperate.

She didn't understand what had happened.

Hearing Yinghua's inquiry, Changpu and Mudan also immediately turned their gazes toward Xiaoxia. They noticed that Xiaoxia's complexion was indeed unnatural, pale with a hint of exhaustion, her eyes flickering, as if deliberately avoiding their gaze.

"Nothing......"

Xiaoxia seemed somewhat at a loss. She stammered, wanting to say something, but finally shook her head and did not speak.

It's not nothing; something big is going to happen.

Xiaoxia resisted the image that was about to be played on the White Light Curtain.

Because Brock had fallen ill, she herself made a basin of dark cuisine; Ash refused to eat it, only she ate it, her complexion suddenly changed, leaving Ash and Pikachu feeling terrified.

What she made at that time was dark cuisine.

If this were broadcast, her good image would be ruined.

She would definitely be teased by the three sisters, but being teased by them is trivial; the real issue is that Aunt Huazi would see it, making her look unable to cook, almost causing a problem from eating.

"Hahaha, I get it!"

Changpu glanced at the White Light Curtain and immediately understood why Xiaoxia's complexion was so grim.

Because in the White Light Curtain, Xiaoxia was cooking.

Yinghua and Mudan looked toward the White Light Curtain.

Bai Shijie——

After finding suitable ingredients, Xiaoxia began to prepare the dish.

At the start, she mistakenly took salt for sugar and added a big spoonful of salt; Celebi passed over the sugar, but she accidentally put in too much, thinking that if she added too much sugar she could just compensate with salt, but then the salt was too much, so she could only add more sugar.

Next, Xiaoxia added a large amount of tomato sauce to the dish, then some mayonnaise, then soy sauce, seasonings, miso, curry powder, five-spice, mustard, chili, and chili oil.

Everything was thrown in!

The Can-reach Duck stared wide-eyed beside them.

Ash and Pikachu sat trembling at the table, pushing away the dark cuisine made by Xiaoxia.

The result was that Xiaoxia couldn't even eat it herself.

【Changpu: Brother-in-law, you're really lucky, Xiaoxia doesn't cook at home normally, it's rare for her to make you a meal, we sisters are all envious.】

【Yinghua: E'e, brother-in-law really, Xiaoxia hardly ever cooks a meal, and you won't even give her face to try a bite.】

【Ash: Uh, I'm really full, next time for sure, Team Rocket all like to eat it, so it must be delicious.】

【Team Rocket Trio:?】

Team Rocket Trio inexplicably took friendly fire.

Actually, only Musashi likes to eat it; she likes this heavy-flavored food.

【Xiaoxia: Stop envying, I'll make it for you guys later!】

Team Rocket came to cause trouble, but Brock recovered his health, woke up, and drove Team Rocket away.

Thus, Brock resumed his role as cook.

Ash and his energetic group arrived at Strongman Town.

They learned that the town was holding a Poké Ball sumo competition.

To participate, one needs a heavyweight Poké Ball, which simply means using strength to push the opponent's Poké Ball out of the boundary.

Ash just happened to have a Poké Ball that met this condition.

As a first-time participant who had never practiced Poké Ball sumo, Ash entered this Poké Ball sumo competition.

He sent out Snorlax to compete, and Snorlax is really strong.

At first he fell into a disadvantage, nearly losing, but he managed to find an opportunity to turn the tables and win.

He defeated Mr. Electric's experienced Strong Croc and won the championship.

【Xiba: How is that even possible? Should I say Ash has a wild imagination or that Snorlax is just too talented?】

【Ash: Snorlax is just too strong!】

【Professor Oak: Everyone is strong, Ash managed to win the championship in his first time participating in this sumo match; in the end, it was still Ash who understood Snorlax, thus utilizing Snorlax's unique trait to turn the tables instantly.】
