"All Baimu!?"

Three exclamations; obviously, none of them expected that the one with the big Hisuian Growlithe would be All Baimu.

The small Growlithe ran over quickly.

The small eyes hidden under the coarse fur looked at All Baimu, then at the big one, and finally barked at the Miss Fortune Sisters lying in the distance.

"Awoo! Awoo awoo!"

Irida and the others looked over, and only then discovered the three guys hypnotized by the Shiny Gengar.

Mai couldn't help but feel fortunate that she hadn't jumped to conclusions.

For a moment just now, she really thought All Baimu had kidnapped the Growlithe; after all, it was snatched away in the middle of the night, and it was impossible to determine who did it.

"Yo!"

All Baimu waved at the three, "You came over to find Growlithe?"

Irida nodded, "Yes, yesterday evening, Mai's big Growlithe suddenly disappeared, and we searched all night but couldn't find it.

"After dawn, this child suddenly rushed into the water and swam forward all the way, wanting to come to Firespit Island, so we followed."

All Baimu: "Who rushed into the water?"

Mai looked at the small Growlithe guiltily, "It's this child... in order to find its companion, it overcame its fear of the ocean."

Cousin Aman sighed, "This completely exceeded our expectations, because its father once died in the ocean."

Also a Pokémon with a four-times weakness to Water.

The 'King' fell into the vast ocean to save its child, and the little one moved forward bravely without fear of the seawater to find its companion.

Worthy of being a Pokémon, with infinite potential!

All Baimu looked at the small Growlithe approvingly, then suddenly turned his head to look at the towering volcano in the distance.

The next moment.

A faint call came, spreading throughout Firespit Island.

"Awoo ooo ooo—"

"Awoo—!!"

The small Growlithe howled at the sound, its whole body suddenly releasing brilliant radiance, and its small body gradually grew larger.

The entire island began to tremble, Irida and the others stared in shock at the evolving Growlithe, while the sleeping Miss Fortune Sisters were awakened by the splashing rocks, seeing this scene in a daze.

"Evolved? No! It's that little one!"

"How could it be it?"

The three faces were full of incomprehension.

A short while later, with the blooming of light like the sun, a majestic, single-horned lion-like dog roared.

"Awoo ooo ooo ooo!!"

Magma splashed in various parts of Firespit Island, as if celebrating the birth of a 'King'.

Cousin Aman smiled, "The legend of Firespit Island is true! It crossed the ocean and showed enough courage!"

In the legend of Firespit Island, as long as a Growlithe steps into this territory bravely enough, it can evolve into an Arcanine.

The Miss Fortune Sisters kidnapped the big Growlithe and didn't leave the Cobalt Coastlands but came to Firespit Island, also to fulfill this legend.

"No, the so-called courage doesn't refer to crossing the ocean, but showing the strength to face difficulties."

Mai was moved to tears, gratified, "The child of the previous generation's King... has been recognized!"

The second sister, A-Zhu, said hatefully, "Damn it! We caught the wrong one!"

"Take this opportunity, let's slip away!"

The Miss Fortune Sisters looked at each other and decisively chose to retreat quietly; they were really afraid of All Baimu, having been no match for him in both confrontations.

However, before they could recall their Pokémon, the Shiny Gengar laughed strangely again, its eyes releasing blue light, imprisoning their figures.

"D-damn it!"

The eldest sister, A-Song, was about to have a mental breakdown.

On the other side.

Because the space-time rift incident was resolved by All Baimu in advance, the evolved Hisuian Arcanine didn't fall into a frenzy again.

Mai approached happily, stroking Arcanine's chin, "Great!"

"Awoo!"

Arcanine lowered its head and rubbed against her affectionately.

Only the roar seemed to have a double tone, making Mai puzzled, "Why are there two voices..."

She looked around for the source of the sound.

All Baimu raised his head and saw the afterimage of Arcanine at the volcano, which flashed away like a ghost.

The Rotom Phone whispered, "The previous generation's 'King'?"

"Yeah, it seems it couldn't let go of its child and refused to go to the Spirit Realm." He nodded.

Mai also seemed to understand something, smiling, "I understand, so that's it!"

She said to the new island king, "Arcanine... from now on, in order to fulfill our respective duties, we must live apart."

Hearing this, Arcanine lowered its head sadly, "Awoo..."

"It's okay, you are very powerful, you are far stronger than me, and I will come to see you often; after all, I am your warden!"

Mai comforted it with a smile.

The residence of the island king was Firespit Island, and Firespit Island couldn't exist as a human habitat with the current level of technology.

Hearing this, Arcanine felt much better.

Mai looked at All Baimu again, "Thank you very much for your help; I really don't know how to thank you enough."

"Then help me find the Flame Plate."

He smiled.

Cousin Aman and Irida, who heard this, also volunteered to join the ranks of searching for the plate.

As for the Miss Fortune Sisters, they were certainly hypnotized again.

The previous time, they were awakened by external influence, but this time Gengar monitored them at all times to ensure they had no chance to escape.

They searched until noon when the sun was fierce.

Irida and the others couldn't stand the heat and even showed signs of heatstroke, so All Baimu gave up regretfully.

"Thank you all for your hard work, just forget it if you can't find it."

He nodded to the majestic-looking Arcanine.

Although it was a newly promoted island king, the wild Pokémon of Firespit Island all followed its orders and participated in the search for the Flame Plate.

Regrettably, despite using a large amount of manpower and resources, the result was contrary to expectations.

Irida said worriedly, "But in this way, isn't an important plate missing?"

She also knew the law that one King guarded one plate.

"I'll think of a way. By the way, I've met Ingo and got the Toxic Plate from him, and I have some things to tell you."

All Baimu told Irida and Mai that Ingo and he came from the same place.

Irida was stunned, "Ingo is also a messenger of the Almighty Sinnoh?"

"That's not it; he should belong to the type who was unfortunately affected. In short, he will definitely go back with me, so you must find a way to find the next successor."

All Baimu reminded Irida.

Irida immediately looked troubled, "But the selection of the warden..."

Usually, once a warden is selected, it basically won't change unless there is an accident or the 'King' passes away.

After all, taking care of the 'King' is the responsibility of the Pearl Clan; you can't let the 'King' adapt to them, it must be them adapting to the King.

All Baimu really gave the Pearl Clan, especially Irida, this warden, a big problem.

"I know you're definitely in a difficult position; just ask if you need anything; anyway, I'll go to your side in a few days."

The Pearl Settlement is located in the Alabaster Icelands at the northernmost end of Sinnoh, where the climate is cold and white snow flies all year round.

All Baimu didn't quite understand why they chose to settle there.

But he respected other people's decisions.

"Okay."

Irida nodded with difficulty, and couldn't help but fan herself with her hand, "I can't take it anymore, it's really too hot here."

The few set off to return to the beach.

Irida and the others came by boat; the boat wasn't big and couldn't fit seven people.

All Baimu sent out the Steelix, giving up his position while providing power to the small boat.

Irida also gave up her position, sat on top of the Steelix's head with him, gazed at Cousin Aman and Mai who were talking, and whispered, "Do you think the two of them..."

"Are dating."

All Baimu nodded affirmatively.

Irida didn't understand, "What do you mean dating?"

"It means they like each other and are in a relationship preparing to get married." He tried his best to say it so that Irida, a girl without much culture, could understand.

Irida was shocked, "Really!?"

The suddenly raised volume attracted Mai's attention, "What's wrong, Irida?"

"Hehehe, nothing, Mai~"

Irida laughed it off, and then whispered in disbelief, "Are they really... dating?"

"Can't you feel the loving atmosphere between the two?"

"I can feel a little bit..."

"Then isn't that enough? Do you oppose it?"

"It's not exactly opposing."

Irida's expression was conflicted.

The Pearl Clan and the Diamond Clan didn't fight as fiercely as before, but in the final analysis, they were still hostile forces.

Would Cousin Aman and Mai have a good result?

All Baimu could see what she was thinking and smiled, "So you and Adaman need to work hard. Your task is to end the suffering caused by humans in the Hisui region for thousands of years and let Hisui move toward new glory."

"I, I can?"

Irida felt dizzy listening; ending thousands of years of suffering and welcoming new glory—it was really too grand for a little girl like her.

All Baimu said, "Of course you can. You don't know that in the world I live in, even ten-year-old children can take on heavy responsibilities and influence millions of people."

"Millions!"

Irida widened her eyes.

The existing population of the Pearl Clan and the Diamond Clan was less than ten thousand; what was the concept of a million?

Looking at All Baimu's firm smile, a small seed was planted in Irida's heart, waiting for an opportunity to sprout.

——

Back on land.

All Baimu didn't chat much with the few, smiled and told them not to let the Miss Fortune Sisters run away again this time, and rushed to the Coronet Highlands.

Not finding the Flame Plate really made him regretful.

But at least he would recover one plate today—the one from the Diamond Clan warden, Moku!

The sooner he finished collecting, the sooner he would return to modern times!

He rushed to the Coronet Highlands without stopping, and at the location where he met Ingo yesterday, he saw this unlucky Battle Subway boss again.

At this moment, Ingo was frowning.

"What's wrong?"

All Baimu didn't wait for Hydreigon to fully lower its altitude, jumping off the dragon's back when it was about ten meters away.

Slap!

The sudden action frightened Ingo, "Whoa! You're here, All Baimu!"

He calmed down and explained the reason.

It turned out that after All Baimu left yesterday, he went to find the Diamond Clan warden, Moku, but the other party was very difficult to talk to, wanting to have a Pokémon battle as soon as they met.

All Baimu: "Did you win?"

"One win, one loss; that person is still quite powerful."

Ingo sighed, "If only my old partners were all by my side."

All the Pokémon he had now were temporarily tamed and hadn't been trained much before he regained his memory.

All Baimu comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll speed up."

"Eh? Actually, I'm not that urgent."

Ingo waved his hand hurriedly.

He was worried about another thing—he hadn't thought of a proper way to resign from the position of warden; if All Baimu really solved it within a few days, he would be even more worried.

All Baimu's expression was strange, "Fine. Where is Moku? I'll go try."

Ingo began to lead the way diligently.

Moku and the other 'King' of the Coronet Highlands usually operated near the Moonview Arena.

And the Moonview Arena was located at a very high point on Mount Coronet, not far from the Temple of Sinnoh. All Baimu hadn't seen it last time mainly because the direction the Steelix flew was the other side.

When the two arrived, Adaman happened to be there too.

He was saying something to Moku.

"Don't be so stubborn, Moku; we of the Diamond Clan should obey the mission given to the messenger by the Almighty Sinnoh!"

"I've said it many times, Adaman, that guy of unknown origin is clearly from the Galaxy Team; you've been deceived by his little tricks! What space-time rift! I went up to see it that day; it was just normal weather changes!"

Moku snorted in rebuttal.

This was a strange man wearing a long hat, with two purple locks of hair hanging down his temples.

But compared to his appearance, his personality could be called cold and hard, turning a deaf ear to Adaman's earnest persuasion.

When All Baimu and Ingo approached, the two also discovered them.

Moku saw All Baimu and immediately realized his identity, taking the initiative to step forward, "You are that self-proclaimed messenger of the Almighty Sinnoh—"

The words stopped abruptly.

Just because All Baimu, who was smiling faintly in his eyes, seemed to be emitting thick black energy, making him feel fear from the bottom of his heart.

Like a creature's survival instinct, Moku's subconscious was warning him that the person in front of him was a terrifying existence that could completely annihilate him from the world at any time, and it was best to stay as far away as possible!

"Gulp..."

Moku couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Ingo and Adaman also felt the abnormal atmosphere and looked at All Baimu together.

It's just that neither of them was being targeted, so the physical sensation was much weaker than Moku's, and naturally, there was no talk of fear.

But they also inexplicably felt that All Baimu brought them a lot of pressure.

Ingo thought to himself, "Sure enough, it's that familiar Orre Champion!"

When he watched All Baimu's matches on TV and his phone before, he felt more than once that this person had amazing momentum, even exceeding the vast majority of champions.

Simply like a human Pokémon.

And Adaman inexplicably recalled that day half a month ago, under the sea of fire, All Baimu smiling while looking at the stage in the sky.

Exactly the same as he was now!

Adaman took a deep breath, "All Baimu! You're here!"

"Yeah."

All Baimu took back his momentum through breath control, nodded with a smile, and said to Moku, "Just heard you say that the space-time rift was just a normal weather change?"

Moku's face was covered in sweat, but he was still tough, "That's right! Dark clouds that disappeared the next day—if that's not climate change, what is it?"

"You didn't even see the Dialga you revere? What a failure; you were clearly so close."

All Baimu shook his head regretfully.

This sentence triggered Moku's anger.

He clenched his fists and shouted, "Could it be that you have seen it?"

"Otherwise?"

All Baimu waved his hand casually, and the Rotom Phone flew toward him and Adaman, "I think you should see this."

The Rotom Phone grew larger in mid-air, turning from a phone into a tablet, clearly showing the content of All Baimu summoning Dialga and Palkia at the Temple of Sinnoh that day and resolving the situation between the two.

Adaman was shocked, and Moku shook his head repeatedly, "This is impossible!"
