Chapter 808: Facing the Queen
Although the Totem Salazzle looked extremely unwilling, and its claws holding the Firium Z wouldn't let go no matter what, it was eventually forcibly pulled away by All Baimu.
"Save some energy!"
He handed the Firium Z to the Shiny Gengar, letting it put it in a box for safekeeping, not afraid at all that the Totem Salazzle would deceive him with a fake.
Where would wild Pokémon have the ability to fake things?
Island Queen Olivia didn't look like such a bored person either.
He turned back to the pot, looked at his watch, and said: "Time's up, open the lid!"
"Happy!"
Blissey picked up the pot lid, and water mist mixed with dazzling golden light bloomed.
In an instant.
The entire cave was illuminated by a golden light.
The classic bgm of Master Chef seemed to ring in the ears of all the Pokémon, and the air emitted an intoxicating fragrance, even the scattered powder floating in various places couldn't suppress it.
The Totem Salazzle widened its eyes; it was the first time it had seen food that could glow, almost thinking that the fire had burned through the pot.
But soon it was seduced by the fragrance coming from the mushroom pot, full of intoxication.
Even the depression of having to hand over the Firium Z was forgotten.
Who knew an unexpected thing suddenly happened!
When the fragrance filled every corner of the cave, the Pokémon egg in its arms suddenly released a brilliant blue radiance!
The Totem Salazzle looked in shock at the countless light fireflies swirling around the Pokémon egg.
It was about to hatch!
Unprecedented excitement and joy made it forget the temptation of the mushroom pot, and the desire for food was completely thrown to the back of its mind, carefully holding up the Pokémon egg.
The Totem Salazzle's eyes suddenly had nothing else.
"Un-nao..."
Its child was about to be born!
How excited was the Totem Salazzle, wishing it could drill into the glowing Pokémon egg.
And unlike the scene of breaking out of the shell in the manga, the hatching form of the Pokémon egg in the anime was not much different from the game, directly changing from the egg itself into a Pokémon.
All Baimu also didn't expect the Pokémon egg to hatch at this time.
One person plus two fat guys watched curiously, not daring to make a sound.
Speaking of which.
This was the first time All Baimu had seen the complete process of a Pokémon egg hatching with his own eyes; if the environment hadn't been too dim, he really wanted to record it with a camera.
The dim cave illuminated by golden light and red light was silent.
Only the mushroom stew was still bubbling.
Not long after.
Under the Totem Salazzle's excited gaze, the Pokémon egg gradually changed from an oval shape into a palm-sized little Salandit.
The newborn cub was ignorant, and its two eyes revealed a clear stupidity.
"Ya-da?"
A quite delicate cry.
"Un-nao~"
The Totem Salazzle looked at it with love, stretched out its long, thin tongue to lick it gently, and even its cry became "clamped," which could be called a maternal explosion on its enchanting and cunning face.
But All Baimu, who was watching from the side, only had a full heart of desire to complain.
So small!
As everyone knows about the cause of the Totem aura, GF still hasn't given a suitable conclusion.
The Totem Pokémon of the first generation were formed by the power of Necrozma and the Sun and Moon gods; what about the later ones? Totem Pokémon are not immune to birth, aging, sickness, and death.
Spread by bloodline?
But this guy wasn't much bigger than the body size of an ordinary Pokémon when it was just born.
Maybe it will slowly get bigger later.
All Baimu couldn't figure it out, and his intuition told him that there must be a problem with the Totem Salazzle being so tight about this Salandit.
After all, it had already opened a reverse harem, so how could it lack offspring?
The reproductive ability of Pokémon is not as strong as those animals in the previous life, but one Pokémon egg a year is no problem; why does it behave like it's being a mother for the first time?
It couldn't be that it's harder for Totem Pokémon and ordinary Pokémon to reproduce...
If that were true, where did this pile of Salandit come from?
Random refresh?
Perhaps he would have to ask Professor Elm; he specializes in Pokémon breeding work.
As thoughts flowed.
The little Salandit held in the Totem Salazzle's claws sniffed, looked at the steaming spicy mushroom stew in front of All Baimu, and stretched out two small claws while crying tenderly, making a pouncing posture: "Ya-da!"
Seeing the greed emerging in its clear gaze, it was clearly hungry.
All Baimu raised his eyebrows slightly.
This guy wouldn't have been hatched by the fragrance, right?
Really?
"Un-nao?"
The Totem Salazzle also felt very surprised, looked at the little Salandit that was about to slip out of its hands, and then looked at the golden mushroom pot that was floating with fragrance, twisting and twisting as it walked onto the stone platform.
Who would have thought that when it approached the mushroom pot, its path was blocked by All Baimu.
It was stunned first, and then its expression became fierce: "Un-nao!"
"Huh?"
All Baimu's voice instantly raised an octave, and Blissey and Gengar immediately stepped forward left and right, like two fat Arhats protecting the law, showing compassion and anger respectively.
The three of them looked at it without saying a word.
The Totem Salazzle's ferocity softened instantly, and it, being fierce in appearance but weak in reality, made a sound similar to a whimper.
"Nao..."
It's not that the mother isn't capable, it's just that the opponent is too outrageous.
The little Salandit didn't notice these at all; it only focused on the bubbling mushroom pot, tenderly grabbing its mother's claws, trying to struggle out.
All Baimu looked at this little guy.
He said: "It's not that I won't let it eat, it's that this isn't suitable for a newborn Pokémon to eat; it was just born, it's best to feed it Moomoo Milk."
Pokémon cubs are actually much tougher than humans.
This can be seen from the Pokémon cubs hatched by Ash, for example, Phanpy, Scraggy, Noibat, Riolu, etc.
Which child can battle as soon as they are born?
However, no matter how tough, the spicy mushroom stew rich in toxins still couldn't be eaten, even for a Poison-type Salandit.
Too small.
"..."
The Totem Salazzle flicked its tail when it heard this, hardened its heart to ignore the little Salandit's longing eyes, ran to the corner of the stone platform, and picked up a bottle of Moomoo Milk that was clearly stolen.
Just as it was about to dig open the lid with its claws, All Baimu leaned over again.
"Yeah, this is spoiled."
He fanned the bottle mouth with his hand, and the thick strange smell made him say to the Totem Salazzle: "It's bad, do you understand?"
The Totem Salazzle looked at the little Salandit with a face full of rejection; clearly, Poison-type Pokémon are not all like Muk, who eats everything.
All Baimu generously took out the Moomoo Milk he bought yesterday, and even kindly opened the bottle cap.
"Un-nao!"
The Totem Salazzle finally showed a happy expression, decisively threw away the spoiled milk, took the bottle All Baimu handed over, and carefully fed it to the little Salandit.
The Moomoo Milk produced by Kiawe's family is naturally excellent.
The little Salandit was certainly more interested in the mushroom pot, but the smell of the Moomoo Milk that reached its mouth wasn't bad, and it started drinking it with a smack.
All Baimu glanced at it twice, and shouted toward the cave entrance: "Miss Olivia! Come out! I've already seen you!"
At the cave entrance.
A blurry figure laughed loudly: "Hahaha! Sure enough, I couldn't hide it from you!"
She ran over quickly to hug All Baimu, but was dodged by the latter, though she didn't get angry, and hugged the left and right protectors, taking off the simple gas mask on her face and kissing each one.
"Mua~mua~ You guys are so handsome! Blissey is, and Gengar is too!"
"Happy~"
"Gen!!"
Blissey, who was relatively shy, hadn't done anything yet, but Gengar, this guy, actually turned red-faced first, almost turning from a fat gray guy into a fat red guy.
After kissing these two, she went to hug the Totem Salazzle, who was feeding the milk, and kissed it on the face, "Congratulations! The baby hatched successfully! You worked very hard! But you did so many wrong things, go solve them!"
The Totem Salazzle couldn't be "mad" at all in front of the Island Queen, and lowered its head in shame.
Olivia looked at the little Salandit in its arms; this little guy was drinking milk so forgetfully that she couldn't help but kiss it too, "So cute!"
Where is it cute...
All Baimu twitched the corner of his mouth.
Although he didn't think Salandit looked ugly, it really couldn't be called cute, alright!
It can only be said that the human aesthetics in the Pokémon world all have some problems more or less.
After interacting with the Pokémon.
Olivia looked at the golden spicy mushroom stew bubbling, her throat also gurgled, and she turned to ask: "Can I have a bowl?"
All Baimu decisively refused: "No, this is poisonous, specifically made for Poison-type Pokémon."
"Then half a bowl."
"This isn't a matter of dosage, as long as you eat it, you will definitely see little people dancing."
"One bite~"
"I said it's not a matter of dosage..."
All Baimu blocked the mushroom pot in one step; whether in the previous life or in the Pokémon world, there are very many people who know it's poisonous but still want to die to satisfy their appetite.
Even because medical care in the Pokémon world is relatively developed, the number of people who love to die is several times that of the previous life.
"Eh——"
Olivia was full of frustration, really unable to resist the fragrance.
The Totem Salazzle hadn't eaten it yet, but she didn't believe anyone or Pokémon could refuse this delicacy, just like she knew it was poisonous but still wanted to try it.
"Quick, eat it quickly, slurp~"
She put on the gas mask to isolate the fragrance, urging the Totem Salazzle to eat it quickly.
Otherwise...
Even if she went to the hospital, she wanted to try a bite!
All Baimu saw that this Island Queen really had the idea of stealing a bite and then "straightening out for the rest of her life," coughed twice and said: "I still have a lot of non-toxic mushrooms here. If you don't mind, I happen to be preparing to make some at noon, you can try it."
"Eh? Really?"
Olivia's eyes shone brightly.
All Baimu nodded to indicate certainty, looked at the time on his watch: "Really, but... it's best to be after the Grand Trial."
Mentioning this.
The two looked at the Totem Salazzle.
The trial was certainly customized orally, but there was no doubt that it belonged to a very sacred checkpoint in the Island Challenge, and the Totem Salazzle definitely had to finish it.
All Baimu reminded Olivia that the little Salandit couldn't eat it, so she hugged it away without saying a word.
Actually not angry?
He looked in surprise at the Totem Salazzle whose expression didn't change; the child that was just born was hugged away just like that, and it was on the premise that it had been crazy before.
How respected is the Island Queen?
In short, it's someone who keeps her word.
He saw the Totem Salazzle finally start to enjoy the spicy mushroom stew prepared for it, and his heart relaxed.
To be honest, he was quite worried that this guy would overturn the pot before.
For a madwoman, everything is possible.
"Gurgle~"
All Baimu pressed Gengar's head, saying: "The sound of you swallowing saliva is almost louder than drinking water!"
"Gengar..."
Gengar wiped the saliva from the corner of its mouth, trying hard to turn its head and not look.
"Gurgle~"
All Baimu: "Why are you still swallowing!"
Gengar: "Gen (aggrieved)."
Olivia: "Sorry, it's me."
All Baimu: "..."
It's fine that this Island Queen's personality is jumpy, why is she still a glutton!
——
A routine prayer is needed before the Grand Trial.
And Akala Island belongs to the Life Ruins of Tapu Lele, located in the south, on the outskirts of Konikoni City.
This prayer doesn't need All Baimu's participation; just go to the battle venue and wait.
"Another festival stage?"
He walked down the steps and arrived at a place full of birds and flowers.
Only to see four flower fields surrounding a venue paved with flat black rock slabs, no different from the festival stage in Iki Town.
At the end, there was a square stone platform printed with a sun, not knowing what it was for.
Waited quietly for five minutes.
Olivia walked over from another small path.
At this time, she finally had a bit of the bearing and style of an Island Queen; her expression was solemn, dignified, and her voice sounded exceptionally thick.
She shouted: "Now begins the ceremony of the Island Challenge—the Grand Trial! Wela Volcano that nurtured Akala Island! God of Life, Tapu Lele! Please watch over me and the young man participating in the Island Challenge! And grant us power!"
Olivia raised her hands high, like a prayer.
A few seconds later.
She lowered her hands, restored to her past free and easy self, and laughed: "All Baimu, I've heard of your glorious achievements from Mr. Hala."
"How so?" All Baimu responded.
Olivia said: "For a powerful trainer like you, conventional means are hard to stimulate your strength, so I decided—activate double battle mode!"
She threw two Poké Balls upward.
Bang bang!
White light flickered.
Gigalith, covered in red rock thorns, and Alolan Golem, which looked like it was equipped with pincers on its back, appeared together.
The moment the former landed, a gust of sand and dust rolled up.
Whoosh!
The sand and dust quickly covered the entire stage venue, clearly the 【Sand Stream】 ability from Gigalith.
Olivia laughed: "The number of Pokémon that can be used is four, and if all the Pokémon of either side lose their ability to battle, the match is considered over!"
Four vs four...
Ash seemed to only have two vs two?
All Baimu thought while taking out a Poké Ball; he had held back when fighting Hala last time, mainly worried that the latter would be unhappy and not give him the Z-Ring.
Even if this probability was very small.
Facing Olivia, he didn't need to be so restrained.
Directly——
Point-blank explosion!
"Go!"
Bang bang!
A Luxury Ball and a Heavy Ball exploded.
"Pory!"
Porygon2 landed.
And standing beside it was Registeel, a metal giant more than three meters tall.
"Doo-doo-doo——Lei! Gee! Hiss!"
The hexagonal dot matrix flickered back and forth.
Olivia saw these two Pokémon and couldn't help but show a surprised expression, asking: "Legendary Pokémon Registeel? And this is..."
"Virtual Pokémon Porygon2, an artificial intelligence Pokémon invented by Dr. Akihabara."
All Baimu said a string of words without any stagnation, just like a habitual advertisement, and then very simply gave the order: "Psychic, Iron Head Gigalith."
Olivia's reaction wasn't slow either, hurriedly following up: "Use double Stone Edge on Porygon2!"
Thus.
Four Pokémon attacked in unison.
Gigalith raised its front legs trying to stomp the ground, but was imprisoned by a void blue light before touching the ground, fortunately, the Alolan Golem beside it successfully used Stone Edge by hammering the ground with its small fists.
"Hoo-long!"
Boom!
Rumble rumble rumble!
Neatly arranged fluorescent blue sharp stone pillars kept rising from the ground, crazily approaching Porygon2!
At this time.
A brilliant silver light suddenly flashed.
Boom!
Only hearing a loud explosion, the three fluorescent blue stone pillars in the middle section seemed to have been crushed by a giant object, instantly shattering into powder.
A huge silver shadow moved from south to north at a speed invisible to the naked eye, carrying a terrifying roar like an airplane flying overhead, and with an irresistible terrifying momentum, slammed Gigalith, which was unable to move, flying out!
Thud——!!
The air exploded into a milky white air wave!
Alolan Golem only felt a heavy dull sound suddenly coming from its ear, and its good partner who called for sandstorms to increase its special defense disappeared, replaced by a terrifying metal giant.
"Hoo-long..."
It was sweating a bit.
Olivia was the same.
The strong wind messed up her sideburns, making her almost unable to react.
"——Eh?"
She blinked at Registeel, and then turned her head to look at the...
Cliff more than ten meters behind her.
The traces of objects on the ground retreating rapidly were incomparably clear.
Gigalith fell off the cliff!! ===== CHAPTER 809 =====
