Chapter 1071: The Loyal Three Appear

"What are the Loyal Three?"

Yeah.

What are the Loyal Three.

In front of the bustling festival street, the crowd preparing was bustling, and All Baimu, who was holding his chin, was very dissatisfied with the answer he received.

He originally thought that these three strange DLC Pokémon were native to the vicinity of Kitakami, but it turned out that no one knew them?

In other words, three beasts of unknown origin became so-called heroes because they blocked Borro and Ogerpon.

——It was simply too ridiculous.

People who had lived on the back mountain with them in peace for a long time were less trustworthy than beasts.

Unless... something unexpected happened.

"Big brother! Food, sauce, salt, etc., have all been sent over!" Cha Pu ran over from afar and said.

All Baimu turned his head to look at him, "I know... do you really not need to go help your father?"

"No! I can't make masks, and the masks to be sold at the Harvest Festival were made long ago!" Cha Pu said rebellious words that were very consistent with his age.

Thanks to the favorable weather in Kitakami and the lack of heavy taxes. Even if productivity was far inferior to modern times, and crops were often invaded by beasts, as long as you were willing to work in the fields, ordinary people would never starve to death.

Cha Pu was willing to farm, but didn't like the mask-making trade.

He would rather learn more useful skills...

For example, commanding beasts.

Although All Baimu and Long Ren had repeatedly said they wouldn't teach him, it still didn't hinder Cha Pu's yearning.

Even if it was impossible, he was willing to run errands for All Baimu.

There were countless young people with the same ideas as Cha Pu.

The people in the village didn't come to stop them when they saw this scene, perhaps hoping that the young people in the village could learn something from All Baimu and Long Ren, so that they could command beasts to protect the village in the future.

Excessive tolerance allowed All Baimu to act recklessly in Kitakami at present.

Even Long Ren's whim to apply for a stall at the Harvest Festival was promised by the village chief.

It was just that he hadn't decided what to do.

Finally, after discussing with All Baimu, they decided to open a fried noodle stall. The startup capital was exchanged from the harvest of the previous days.

"It's been a long time since I tasted what you made."

Long Ren was quite nostalgic for glowing food, and delicious things were often particularly addictive.

All Baimu said: "A clever woman can't cook without rice, don't have too high expectations."

Not to mention seasonings, even the wheat varieties and shelling processes of this era were far inferior to modern times.

Beside the cart.

The three thieves caught in the previous days were doing hard labor.

To gain more fame, All Baimu specifically forgave and accepted them, and the three young men, while grateful, actively became good helpers (coolies).

It had to be said that this move, not to mention the village chief, even the few village elders who were as stubborn as stones couldn't find fault with it.

Their families were even more polite to All Baimu and Long Ren.

"Big brother! Five bags of refined wheat, a jar of salt, and a vat of soy sauce are all here!"

They called respectfully.

All Baimu nodded, "Hard work, you guys go rest, leave the rest to others."

Just look at the stalls next to them, teenagers of all sizes were setting up stalls, burning fires, and chopping wood.

"Got it, got it! These people are really dark! They dare to open any price!"

Long Ren returned holding a small jar, which contained precious oil.

And the object of his transaction was the traveling merchants who arrived in Kitakami one after another. The Harvest Festival attracted people from all over the world, and traveling merchants were among them.

Large gulps of tea were poured into his stomach, and Long Ren let out a long breath.

"It's good that you got it."

All Baimu didn't care much.

What they were doing was a business without capital, first collecting or robbing from wild Pokémon, then exchanging them for copper coins from the villagers, and finally using them to buy things from traveling merchants.

There was only one group of victims throughout the whole process—wild Pokémon.

No wonder they say that the primitive accumulation of capital is often "dirty" and "bloody."

As for whether the simple Pokéblocks All Baimu made by hand later could satisfy them, that was a matter of opinion.

Everything was ready.

Under the curious gaze of many eyes, All Baimu completed the steps of kneading dough, waking dough, stretching noodles, boiling, draining, and stir-frying in a familiar way.

Although the quality of the raw materials was extremely poor, and there were no proper kitchen utensils, even the stir-frying was done on an iron plate, and the packaging materials were dried leaves and branches.

But the final product still attracted everyone on the festival street.

"So fragrant!"

"What is this? How can it be so fragrant?"

"Give me a portion! Sir, please sell a portion to me!"

Even though the fried noodles only emitted a thin layer of light, they still belonged to a dimensionality reduction strike in this era.

All Baimu's fried noodle stall naturally became the busiest stall at the festival.

"Really exaggerated."

Long Ren sucked noodles vigorously, marveling at the people blocking the stall.

His side was full of people, but no one spoke, only the sound of pure noodle sucking.

After a long time.

Cha Pu sighed: "Big brother is really amazing, the price is set so high and it's still endless, how can he be so amazing at everything?"

The more he followed All Baimu, the more he could find that this person could be called all-powerful.

Many things he didn't understand or even felt were useless, but in All Baimu's hands, they turned decay into magic.

For example, this bowl of fried noodles, in addition to wheat, soy sauce, and salt, was also mixed with many things All Baimu picked from the ground or robbed from wild Pokémon.

Before All Baimu acted, he didn't know there were so many ways in it.

"People are different."

Long Ren said vaguely: "This friend of mine belongs to the kind of creation that gathers the spirit of heaven and earth. In my hometown, I don't know how many people worship him."

Cha Pu, who didn't have much culture, couldn't understand, but his eyes were full of reverence for All Baimu.

In front of the stall.

All Baimu sold almost everything, and refused to sell because the raw materials were not enough.

Many people who didn't buy it complained endlessly, and some with bad tempers came forward to scold, but immediately shriveled after being glared at by him.

The Rhyperior not far away also made many people with crooked thoughts not dare to act rashly.

The village guard team took the opportunity to scold, and the crowd slowly dispersed.

"Sorry to trouble you, please enjoy."

All Baimu handed the specially reserved fried noodles to the village guard team.

The village guard team members were flattered, refusing with their mouths but being very honest with their hands, "Sir is too polite..."

"Don't worry, sir! Your stall will be guarded by us!"

"Sir is really all-powerful (chew chew)!"

All Baimu smiled slightly.

There are many different places between the Pokémon world and the previous life, including the identification of 【lowly occupations】.

In the ancient times of the previous life, chefs were one of the lowly occupations among the three religions and nine streams.

It was very difficult to be respected.

But even in the ancient times of the Pokémon world, there were few such clear social divisions and class divisions.

After the people left, All Baimu distributed the copper coins harvested according to work.

Even very small children, as long as they held a bundle of firewood, could get a share.

Everyone was pleasantly surprised. They all came to work for free, who could have imagined that the big brother in charge was so generous.

For a time.

Everyone respected him even more.

And when All Baimu announced the dissolution, the young people immediately went to consume in groups.

At this moment, Kitakami gathered traveling merchants from all over the world, and I don't know how many rare items they could see that they didn't usually see. They wanted to consume very much in previous years, but they were shy in their pockets.

"It takes a lot of time for you to subtly let them follow your arrangements, right?"

Long Ren commented: "How long do you plan to stay here?"

"I don't know, it's better than doing nothing."

All Baimu now just wanted to uncover the mysterious veil of the Loyal Three and figure out what exactly happened.

——

At dusk.

Many lanterns were hung high, illuminating the many stalls in front of the shrine.

People from all over the world gathered in Kitakami, and this village became unprecedentedly lively.

But the Harvest Festival was not just about eating, drinking, and playing. Under the leadership of the village chief, people lined up in long lines to pray to the first wheat and rice harvested in the shrine.

Hoping for peace and good weather in the coming year.

"The object of faith is not a Pokémon."

Long Ren was very surprised.

In modern investigations of ancient times, it was found that eight or nine out of ten beliefs were related to Pokémon.

Kitakami is quite unique in this regard.

All Baimu was silent, he knew that the object of worship in the shrine would soon change to the Loyal Three.

The Harvest Festival was also inexplicably changed to the Mask Festival.

He turned his body and saw Borro and Ogerpon wearing masks at the very back.

The bright and gorgeous masks made the two quite popular.

Thanks to All Baimu's subtle influence over the past few days, the young people of Kitakami no longer wore colored glasses for Borro and Ogerpon.

The two received unprecedented kind treatment.

The village guard team saw it in their eyes, but tacitly chose to turn a blind eye. There were too many outsiders at the Harvest Festival, and deliberately targeting someone would easily cause panic among the outsiders.

The worship session ended.

Next was playtime.

The village chief came to All Baimu's side and said to him: "Honored guest, this person is the Hairy Person living in the mountains, and the beast he regards as a daughter is beside him."

"It doesn't look much different from ordinary people."

All Baimu deliberately pretended not to know.

The village chief shook his head and said: "It is so at the moment. But the honored guest doesn't know that when the Hairy Person first arrived, his appearance was no different from the wild beasts in the mountains, and I don't know how many people were scared... Now it can be considered to have been educated."

"Oh? There is such a thing? Educating outsiders to be close to civilization, this is the blessing of Kitakami, old man, your merit is boundless." He pretended to flatter.

The village chief took it seriously and chuckled: "Honored guest is over-praising, but if this Hairy Person is really willing to live here, we won't exclude him too much. I'm just afraid that the war in Hisui will spread here."

"Old man, don't worry, as far as I know, the war in the land of Hisui stems from religious disputes, and it will definitely not spread to Kitakami, let alone Hisui is far away from here."

All Baimu gave him a shot of reassurance.

If the Pearl Clan and the Diamond Clan had been to Kitakami, it wouldn't be the Loyal Three becoming legends, and only Palkia or Dialga would exist in the shrine.

The village chief frowned: "Is what the honored guest said true?"

"Authentic, I have mentioned the god of the land of Hisui before—the Almighty Sinnoh..."

All Baimu talked eloquently.

The village chief listened for a while, his expression complicated.

In the crowd.

Borro, wearing a mask, held a torch and danced a mysterious and solemn dance.

The Terastal shards in the mask shone brightly, as if echoing something.

Just when All Baimu was curious, Ogerpon released crystal-clear colorful light from its whole body, and the mask on its face suddenly became larger, like a statue of a god!

The village chief was surprised, "This——"

"Terastal power?"

All Baimu spoke first, admiring: "The magical power possessed by the overseas empire Paldea! To be able to see it here!"

"Overseas empire?"

The village chief's expression changed again.

A mysterious veil was added to the Hairy Person who was originally barbaric and backward.

He didn't think All Baimu was talking nonsense; the latter's knowledge and strength were unheard of and unseen by the people of Kitakami.

According to those who went out to inquire later, most of what All Baimu said was true, and some that couldn't be distinguished were irrelevant to him, purely because they couldn't be inquired about.

Such a person, even in the city-states of the Kanto daimyo, would likely be regarded as a guest of honor!

"This beast has extraordinary strength, village chief, you should be careful when treating it in the future." All Baimu warned.

The village chief's eyelids jumped.

You know, when the Hairy Person first arrived, he was thrown out by the villagers with stones.

If the Hairy Person had fought back at that time...

"This person must have a big background in Hisui." All Baimu's sentence announced the end of the conversation.

The display of Borro and Ogerpon's strength was undoubtedly his instruction.

And although the village chief took the initiative to find him, it was actually the result of All Baimu deliberately not seeing the village chief for several days, guiding him to talk here.

First plant the impression that Borro is not easy to mess with in the village chief's heart, and then let Borro show friendliness...

Hmm?

All Baimu keenly sensed something, as if there was a deep malice hidden.

The object of malice was not him, but—

Borro?

All Baimu frowned, his gaze piercing through the forest, vaguely seeing some sneaky figures.

"... Excuse me."

He nodded to the village chief and headed straight for the forest.

But the other party seemed to be very keen, ran away early, leaving only a feather on the ground.

The feather contained a certain smell.

"Such a strong pheromone! Was Salazzle here just now?" Rotom Phone made a judgment.

All Baimu was silent.

He observed the footprints on the ground, one deep and one shallow, like dog claws and ape claws.

"The Loyal Three, these three guys finally appeared."

All Baimu didn't expect to meet the target so soon, but why would they target Borro?

Could it be sent by Borro's enemies in Hisui?

He remembered asking Borro, and the other party didn't know what the Loyal Three were, or what Okidogi, Fezandipiti, and Munkidori were.

"Don't tell me, it's a complete misunderstanding."

All Baimu suspected that the real content of the story was that Ogerpon was protecting the village, and the three Loyal Three were there to sabotage.

But the people of Kitakami, due to their prejudice against Borro, led to the misunderstanding.

This plot...

It's not impossible!

All Baimu returned to the festival scene and told Long Ren about this.

"There is such a thing!"

He was very excited and looked forward to it: "Then I should be able to tame these three Pokémon, right?"

All Baimu: "... Hmm?"

"I am best at purifying Pokémon, I guarantee I can make them turn over a new leaf!" Long Ren said with a grin.

His Pokémon, except for the Jolteon evolved from Eevee, were all robbed from the Shadow Team.

For bad Pokémon, he had confidence!
