Chapter 1216: Crown Prince and Princess

Lysandre...

All Baimu's eyes flickered.

Should he borrow Hoopa's power to find him?

He looked at Looker and asked, "So you came to seek my help this time?"

"No, just wanted to meet you. As for this news, normally it shouldn't be told to outsiders..."

Looker's tone was one of inducement, and seeing All Baimu had no reaction, he said regretfully, "But you did participate in that siege after all; what if Lysandre comes looking for you?"

Although it was highly probable that Lysandre wouldn't retaliate, his evil nature was crazy, not stupid; he couldn't do such a thing without style.

But Team Flare's subordinates might not; there were some people in there who were truly evil.

Looker was worried that Lysandre would find a chance to gather the remnants, and this part of the remnants would be unfavorable to All Baimu.

"I think you should know this."

The concerned words made All Baimu reveal a strange look; how long had it been?

Ever since he became Champion, he hadn't been worried about his safety by anyone; it felt strange to hear it after such a long time.

He nodded, "Thanks for the information."

Then there was no more.

Looker sipped tea leisurely, his heart not as calm as he appeared; he had heard many evaluations about All Baimu, which should normally be mixed.

But strangely, here there was only praise, no criticism.

From being born in poverty to struggling to grow, to the many achievements along the way, all the deeds that could be seen by others were worth praising.

This is a strong person who is unstained by the mud and moves forward with justice!

That's right.

Using "extraordinary talent" to describe All Baimu now was no longer appropriate.

Because his talent had blossomed and borne fruit, and his position on the Champion throne was incomparable to ordinary people.

Various praises prompted Looker to come, and after seeing the real person, he couldn't help but feel the desire to recruit him.

Of course, Looker knew clearly that someone who had already become a Champion would highly likely not join the team again.

But what if?

Wasn't Lance a living example?

Looker's idea was very beautiful, but unfortunately, it didn't come true.

After finishing the tea, Looker got up and left; he was responsible for investigating the Lysandre disappearance case, and now was the time to take advantage of the sunset to go out for a stroll; his little assistant, Emma, was probably waiting for him to go back.

"Lysandre."

All Baimu's gaze flickered.

There is a saying 【Only a thousand days to be a thief, no thousand days to guard against a thief】; logically, he should go find the other side's trouble the first time.

But since the International Police were investigating, if he intervened casually, it would look like he was questioning their work ability.

Ask the leader, Lysandre?

Do it if you want; he called Lysandre the first time.

It was evening in Kalos, noon in Orre, so the phone was answered quickly.

"What can't the Champion handle again?"

Lysandre's mood seemed good.

All Baimu repeated the situation he heard from Looker, and the latter laughed upon hearing it.

"You really have no scruples; someone told you such a secret and important matter quietly, and you turned around and told me? Aren't you afraid I'll report him? This is a major leak!"

Lysandre's tone was full of threats.

All Baimu's response was also quite straightforward; he said as if suddenly realizing, "Ah! So the leader likes to report!"

Lysandre: "..."

Clearly teasing the other side, how did he get teased in the blink of an eye?

Can't you say "I believe you are someone who wouldn't report"?

Although hearing All Baimu say this, Lysandre would very impolitely scold him, "Still so naive even after becoming Champion!"

What to do now?

Lysandre could only act as if what just happened didn't happen, turning to indicate that he didn't know about the matters related to Lysandre now.

The International Police had strict rules; how could a mission be known to everyone?

"I guess the Kalos League branch wants to handle it themselves; Lysandre is ultimately a famous figure in the Kalos region."

He indicated that this person was intertwined with the upper-class society of Kalos; even if his desire for destruction was exposed, there were still many people who believed that in the new world Lysandre set, there was a seat for them.

In the eyes of those luxurious figures similar to James's parents, Lysandre was just a good person who suddenly did a bad thing, worthy of being forgiven.

All Baimu's eyes flickered.

So, unless Lysandre is killed, this matter will never end?

"You don't have to worry too much; it's almost impossible for Lysandre to wake up; we have already put in countless efforts."

Lysandre seemed to know his thoughts and said harmoniously: "Put away your desire for cruelty; you, sigh, are also influenced by your background."

In Lysandre's view, All Baimu's childhood wasn't beautiful enough, which influenced him as an adult, making him a person with a relatively extreme personality.

Who would worry about cutting the weeds and digging up the roots?

There is no such reason in the Pokémon world, at least not in the last hundred years; the Orre region is too special.

All Baimu laughed and temporarily put down the idea of asking Hoopa for help.

—

The idle time flew by like water.

A sunny morning.

He went to the Lumiose Conference venue under the escort of vehicles sent by the Kalos League.

Another famous location.

All Baimu's gaze passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, recalling many famous scenes that only existed in his mind.

The change in the world line meant that the situation where Greninja was disgraced didn't happen.

Where is it now?

Remember it didn't follow Zygarde like in the original work to solve the tentacles located in various parts of Kalos.

After all, the giant rock that was beaten by the group of Legendary Pokémon couldn't make trouble anymore.

"Volcanion is doing very well."

Poryphone's voice sounded in All Baimu's ear.

He turned his head, "Are you sure?"

Poryphone lit up its screen, "Sure, the Nebel Plateau has been listed as a key protected area, and the worst situation didn't happen."

All Baimu thought that the establishment of a Pokémon protected area would instead attract more Pokémon hunters.

Like "there is no silver three hundred taels here."

Fortunately, there was the Kingdom of Azoth, the country where the Crown Prince and Princess in the plot were located, which provided strong protection. Once the key protected area was established, five waves of Pokémon hunters were caught in a short time, all heavily sentenced!

Since then, the Nebel Plateau had become a forbidden area for hunters, and there had been no suspicious figures approaching for half a year.

"The iron fist is still useful."

All Baimu was very gratified.

It was a good thing for Pokémon to be able to live in their hometown without having to stay away.

Knock, knock~

The door of the lounge was knocked.

The voice of a staff member came from outside, "Champion All Baimu, there is a pair of siblings here who say they know you."

"Sorry to bother you! I am Kimia; do you still remember the Nebel Plateau from back then?"

An elegant female voice like an oriole sounded, followed by a slightly timid but courageous male voice.

"I am Raleigh!"

What a coincidence!

All Baimu looked at Poryphone and said, "Of course I remember, please come in."

Click.

The door opened, and standing outside were indeed the Crown Prince and Princess—Kimia and Raleigh.

The Shiny Gengar in the shadow popped out, frowned, and dived back in.

It naturally had no opinion about these two siblings, just remembered Jarvis's face that made it nauseous.

Kimia noticed it, and her smile became awkward; Raleigh didn't have his sister's good observational skills and said happily, "It's an honor to see you again! Champion!"

"No need to be so polite."

All Baimu smiled kindly at Kimia, and seeing this, her emotions gradually relaxed, "Long time no see, you two; are you here specifically to watch my match?"

Raleigh nodded busily, "Yes! The League gave us invitations, and we came the first time!"

The collision of Champions was undoubtedly an excellent publicity opportunity for the Kalos League.

Naturally, they intended to invite celebrities and politicians from all walks of life.

Kimia said, "I'm really sorry to bother you at this juncture. We wanted to come after the match, but were worried we wouldn't be able to catch you then."

"It's okay, I'm very happy to see old friends, and I plan to go to the Nebel Plateau to stroll after the match. If it's convenient, can I hitch a ride?"

Facing All Baimu's words, Raleigh said excitedly, "Of course!"

Kimia didn't speak, looking at the youth before her whose sharpness was restrained and whose momentum no longer made people breathless with just one glance, thinking that the Champion throne actually had such great magic.

Could change a person to be so...

Outstanding!

Forgive Kimia for being speechless for a moment; it was mainly because the All Baimu now was too different from her impression.

She intended to take her brother away and not bother All Baimu to prepare for the match.

But Raleigh had no such self-awareness at all, excitedly starting to chat, mentioning what he saw and heard after going out on a journey.

Walking out of the cage of the Kingdom of Azoth and opening his eyes to see the world, Raleigh would naturally no longer be like before, being deceived by Jarvis in a few words.

Even if he was still green, he had grown into a qualified Trainer.

"Although I only got the runner-up, I will continue to work hard!"

Raleigh said, clenching his fist.

He participated in the Lumiose Conference the year after Ash; his Prince background gave him a lot of convenience in terms of cultivation and battle experience, so he got a good result of runner-up in his first battle.

But just like all teenagers had the dream of pointing at the Champion.

Raleigh wasn't satisfied with being runner-up; traveling made him know that there were people beyond people, so he was particularly admiring of All Baimu, who he had met once and who easily dismantled Jarvis's conspiracy.

He should become a talent like this!

For this, Raleigh even prepared to give up inheriting the throne and devote himself to the Trainer career.

Leaving trivial matters to his sister, he was responsible for pursuing his dream; isn't that beautiful? The young Raleigh's brain was filled with "sweet dreams" he thought were true.

"Work hard, as long as you don't admit defeat, there will be a chance sooner or later."

All Baimu didn't stint on his encouragement to the younger generation, lightly patting his shoulder.

Raleigh was immediately excited, his face flushed, and he shouted loudly: "Yes!"

Kimia beside him covered her head, a posture of her brother still being so embarrassing.

Knock, knock~

The door was knocked again.

"Is anyone inside~"

A familiar charming voice came.

Kimia and Raleigh looked at each other, and All Baimu stepped forward to pull open the door, "Yes."

Appearing outside the door was none other than Diantha, who was about to battle him.

Not preparing well, it was also strange to come to the door on her own initiative.

"Di, Diantha-san!"

Kimia's face flushed, and she quickly became like her brother, slightly restrained as she stepped forward, "I am your fan!"

Diantha didn't expect that there were others in All Baimu's room, and after seeing clearly, she immediately changed to an elegant and dignified smile, "Hello, Princess Kimia of the Kingdom of Azoth."

"You still remember me? What an honor!"

Kimia was very moved; ever since she partnered with a Shiny Ralts as a child, she had been paying attention to Diantha, who was already famous at the time.

Over time, she became a fan of the other side.

Diantha smiled, "Of course I remember; when I was shooting a magazine cover in the Kingdom of Azoth last year, you came to visit the set and also arranged for people to send fruit and drinks."

She remembered she wanted to thank this Princess at the time, but unfortunately, the person was already gone.

"Hmm~~"

Kimia was so happy that the spindle-shaped hairstyles on both sides of her head were about to fly up.

All Baimu said, "Don't stand at the door, come in and chat."

"No need."

Diantha shook her head; she still had the desire to confide if there were no outsiders, but it really wouldn't do with outsiders.

The Kalos female Champion had idol baggage.

Facing fans, she must maintain her public image.

Kimia was delicate and sensitive, immediately understanding that her and her brother's presence had disturbed the two, and intended to say goodbye, but Diantha had already left.

She couldn't help but say guiltily: "Sorry, Champion All Baimu..."

"Just call me All Baimu, we are all so familiar, no need." All Baimu shook his head, looking at Diantha's back, very curious about why she came to find him.

Actually, there was nothing.

Diantha just wanted to see All Baimu's state; perhaps influenced by the previous battle, she rarely felt a sense of tension.

Yet she hadn't even had this emotion when battling Leon.

Did she not want to lose to All Baimu that much?

Diantha asked her own heart, then slowly clenched her white and flawless fist.

A while later.

Battle time.

The two Champions entered from different channels on both sides, gazing at each other across the bottomless pit.

Boom!

The ground shook lightly, and the simple battle arena rose slowly, filling the huge pit.

The World Coronation Series referee appeared, raised both hands and shouted:

"What is about to proceed is! Pokémon World Coronation Series Hyper Class 9th place and Master Class 8th place position-swapping battle! Both sides are..."

While he was reading the rules, the avatars of the two lit up on the big screen, with three Poké Balls placed under each.

Without a doubt, the position-swapping battle was also three-on-three.

The audience had some complaints about this; they really wanted to watch a full-team battle, but the World Coronation Series, for the sake of efficiency and giving the players enough room to play and sufficient physical strength, basically didn't conduct six-on-six.

In the broadcast room, a person who made All Baimu feel surprised appeared.

"Hello everyone, I am your old friend, Malva."

As soon as she opened her mouth, it immediately drew a chorus of screams!

"Malva! Malva is back!"

"Where has she been all this time? How come she only returned now, she's been absent from the Champion League for two years!"

"Seems like she went to treat an illness, I remember someone saying that."

Malva's arrest was influenced by certain factors and wasn't spread out; everyone just thought that this beautiful Elite Four and news host had suddenly encountered some change and temporarily retired.

Now that she appeared again, the local people of Kalos were naturally very happy. ===== CHAPTER 1217 =====
