Chapter 432 Fishing Competition vs Fishing Celebrities!
With the orchard, the wood geckos can settle down in the World Tree with peace of mind.
But the orchard also needs Pokémon to take care of it...
Naoki thought carefully, and then found Oliva, who was disguised as a tree in the pasture, and prepared to assign this task to it.
Oliva usually cultivates crops with his mount goat, and he also has rich experience in taking care of the orchard with grass energy.
After hearing that Naoki needed help, Oliva immediately agreed, went to the World Tree, and began to take care of the orchard there.
And with him went the tropical dragon that Naoki had rescued before.
So far, the World Tree officially welcomed its first batch of residents.
After Naoki's simple introduction, Oliva, the tropical dragon and the three wood geckos quickly became familiar with each other.
The wood geckos first spent half a day exploring the forest, and only returned to the guild after they were familiar with the surrounding terrain and environment.
The wood geckos are grass-attribute Pokémon, and they can more or less help take care of crops and trees.
Therefore, they gathered around Oliva, followed Oliva to learn how to use grass energy to care for plants, and helped Oliva take care of this fruit-bearing orchard.
Oliva is a Pokémon with a kind heart, and he teaches the wood geckos who study hard very seriously.
Because if nothing goes wrong, this place will be where they will live together from now on.
Everyone should help each other like the Pokémon partners in the ranch, and build a home for everyone together.
The tropical dragon went to the quiet and beautiful lake next to the guild.
Occasionally when passing by there, you can see the tropical dragon lowering its long neck and drinking water.
The lake is the only water source nearby. Not only the tropical dragon, but Oliva and the wood geckos also often come here to drink water.
When the tropical dragon sees them, it will enthusiastically share the banana fruit on its neck.
The effect of the cooking [Fried Banana], coupled with the harvesting characteristics of the tropical dragon, the fruits that were sent out will soon grow again.
As for the enthusiastic sharing of Tropical Dragon, the Geckos were a little uncomfortable at first.
Because they used to live with other Geckos, it was common for Geckos to help each other.
But for other Pokémon, it was not common.
Therefore, the three Geckos accepted the banana fruit from Tropical Dragon rather awkwardly.
In return, they gave the berries they found in the bushes.
Tropical Dragon happily accepted it, lowered its head, took all the berries with its mouth and ate them into its stomach.
Seeing that Tropical Dragon liked the gifts they gave, the Geckos also showed happy smiles on their faces.
For a while, the atmosphere on the World Tree seemed so harmonious and friendly.
Even Clee was amazed by this scene.
"These Pokémon are so harmonious!" Clee couldn't help but say.
In response, Naoki smiled slightly: "Most Pokémon in the world are very kind-hearted. Not only do Pokémon help each other, I have also seen wild Pokémon actively help humans!"
For example, the Abba Salud in the movie "Pokémon Coco" saved the human baby Coco who was in danger and adopted it.
Claire agreed: "It's great to have creatures like Pokémon in this world!"
Naoki nodded softly: "Yes!"
*
March 7, 200 of the League Calendar, spring.
This day is the day when the spring fishing competition in Zheqin Town is held.
Naoki received an invitation from Mayor Thomas the day before yesterday. After finishing his work on the ranch, he prepared to ride Gulton to the Big Pot Lake to participate in the fishing competition.
At 7:30 in the morning, Claire's construction team arrived at the ranch.
Seeing Naoki and Gulden, Klee was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Are you going to participate in the fishing competition?"
"Yes!" Naoki smiled and nodded: "I missed it in the past two years. I just have time today, so I plan to go there to have a look."
"Then I wish you good luck!"
As she said that, Klee moved the finished carrot house off the truck.
"The carrot house you asked me to order the day before yesterday has been completed. Do you think you are satisfied with it?"
Naoki turned his head and saw two monsters carrying a super huge carrot towards him.
That carrot was the huge crop he had sent to Klee's workshop for processing before. Now that it has been processed, it has completely changed into another look.
The huge carrot was divided into two from the middle, with a special material as the bottom. There was a small door on the carrot and two windows on it. It was exactly the same as the carrot house where rabbits live in fairy tales.
Naoki liked it very much. He called the Eevees to ask them how they felt.
As a result, Naoki found something wrong before he opened his mouth.
After the evolution, the Eevee became bigger, and the current Carrot House could no longer accommodate them.
It could only accommodate two or three at most...
At this moment, a group of Eevees crowded in front of the Carrot House, and the leading Partner Eevee went in first and squatted inside.
Flareon and Jolteon followed closely behind, and with the addition of a Sylph Eevee, the Carrot House was directly packed.
The remaining Eevees stood outside and paced back and forth, looking at the hut made of big carrots with curiosity.
"It can't hold all the Eevees..." Naoki muttered. He thought about it and finally decided to do it this way.
He would see if he could grow crops like giant pumpkins and use them to make a pumpkin carriage for the Eevees that could accommodate all the Eevees.
"Then you guys can play here slowly, I'll go out for a while!" The fishing competition was about to start, and he had to set off.
"Eevee!" The playful Eevees had been completely attracted by the carrot house, and they responded casually, saying that they could go and play by themselves!
Naoki: "..."
Clee smiled with her lips pursed.
Naoki sighed helplessly and said to Clee: "Then I'm going to leave. You've worked hard today!"
Clee nodded gently: "Well, we're going to start the construction too."
The two said goodbye to each other. Clee went to the World Tree to build the expedition team guild, while Naoki rode Gulton to the Big Pot Lake.
The distance between Daguo Lake and Zheqin Town is not far, just to the north of Zheqin Town.
With Gulerton's speed, it can be reached in a few minutes.
When Naoki arrived there, many people had gathered next to Daguo Lake.
Among them were some fishermen wearing work vests, wearing duckbill caps, and holding fishing rods.
Gulerton was very eye-catching. Before Naoki and Gulerton landed, they attracted a lot of attention.
Mayor Thomas was originally talking to a middle-aged man in a flowered shirt. When he saw Naoki coming, he immediately smiled and said:
"Ah, Naoki is here! He is a very famous fishing expert in our Zheqin Town!"
Naoki heard this sentence from Mayor Thomas as soon as he landed.
As expected, as soon as this was said, the eyes of the fishermen around him instantly focused on him.
Naoki: "..."
Mayor Thomas and the man in the flowered shirt stepped forward, and Mayor Thomas introduced:
"This is Takeru Sato, a famous fishing celebrity in the Padilla region. He heard that you will participate in this year's fishing competition, so he came all the way from Glass Bottle City to compete with you in fishing skills!"
Takeru Sato stretched out his hand: "I am Takeru Sato, who is known as the man who conquered Gyarados! My friend, let me see your superb fishing skills!"
Naoki: "?"
Isn't this too exaggerated?
Mayor Thomas introduced with a smile: "Mr. Sato Takeru once caught a powerful Gyarados when he was fishing in the sea, and conquered it with his own skills!"
Naoki felt complicated and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the other party: "Hello, Mr. Sato."
Sato Takeru said excitedly: "Then let's have a good competition next!"
Naoki: "..."
"Now all the contestants are here, please take your seats!"
Mayor Thomas said to everyone:
"The fishing competition will last for three hours. Within three hours, the person who catches the most and the rarest fish will win the championship of the fishing competition and receive the fishing celebrity medal awarded by the fishing association!"
A group of fishermen looked at it covetously, as if they were determined to win the fishing celebrity medal.
Naoki glanced and found that there were men and women in it, ranging in age from ten to several dozen years old.
"Then, this fishing competition officially begins!"
With the order of Mayor Thomas, a group of fishermen immediately rushed to the lakeside of Daguo Lake and selected a fishing position.
The fishing gear and bait in the fishing competition are all unified and provided by the fishing association, so what kind of fish can be caught depends entirely on the luck and skills of the person.
Naoki sat down on a small bench, and the man who conquered Gyarados just sat next to him, dozens of meters away from him.
Pick up the fishing rod, organize the fishing line, put on the bait, and then cast the rod, a series of actions in one go.
The next thing to do is to wait patiently.
Time passed by minute by minute, and all the fishermen were focused and held their breath.
This event was very boring for outsiders, so after a while, Gulden, who was standing next to Naoki, yawned sleepily, and then lay down beside him and began to sleep.
I don’t know how long it took, but a circle of ripples suddenly appeared on the water not far away.
Naoki turned his head and saw that Sato Takeru began to reel in the rod quickly.
The fish that bit the hook seemed to be aware of the danger and immediately tried to escape in the opposite direction.
Seeing this, Takeru Sato immediately put his waist and horse together, fixed his lower limbs in place, and stabilized his center of gravity.
The man and the fish immediately fell into a stalemate.
Time passed by minute by minute, and compared to the fish, Takeru Sato, who had rich fishing experience, was obviously more patient.
The force of the fishing line was slightly reduced, and Takeru Sato immediately felt that the fish was exhausted.
Good opportunity!
He exerted force with his arms, and a parabolic splash was seen on the water surface, and a light cod was caught.
"It's a light cod!"
The onlookers recognized the Pokémon at a glance, and they were all amazed.
"It's worthy of being a fishing celebrity! It's amazing that you can catch a bully like the light cod!"
The light cod, a Pokémon with water and psychic attributes, is extremely numerous and very aggressive. It will attack creatures that break into the Big Pot Lake indiscriminately, so it is also called the Big Pot Lake Bully.
However, the light cod caught did not surrender immediately.
Its eyes were locked on the fishing human, and its dexterous body slammed into him.
The light cod used the impact.
Takeru Sato seemed to have expected it. Seeing that the cod was about to hit him, he suddenly turned around to avoid it, shouted loudly, and then slashed down with a knife.
"drink!"
The cod was hit hard and fell to the ground twisting.
Takeru Sato quickly took out a poke ball and put the light cod in it.
The elf ball shook violently, perhaps because a lot of energy was consumed in the previous competition. Gradually, the elf ball shook less and less until it stopped completely.
This means that the capture was successful.
Naoki was stunned after watching the whole process.
My mother! Isn’t this too hardcore? !
Fighting Pokémon physically?
Could this guy have used this method to conquer Gyarados?
As if aware of his shocked gaze, Takeru Sato, who was more than ten meters away, turned to look at him and grinned:
"As a fishing celebrity, you have to catch not only ordinary fish, but also all kinds of fish Pokémon! Only a fishing celebrity who can conquer all fish can become a legendary fishing master!"
Naoki was speechless for a moment.
Conquer all the fish... including Kyogre, the god of the sea?
Takeru Sato said excitedly: "How far can you go? Let me see it!"
After he finished speaking, the float on Zhi Shu's side suddenly moved twice.
A fish is hooked!
Naoki immediately withdrew his attention. At this moment, the eyes of everyone around him were cast in this direction.
What kind of fish could it be?
Naoki originally thought that he would spend a lot of effort to catch the fish like Takeru Sato, but he subconsciously exerted force on his waist, but he was surprised to find that the fish didn't require much effort from him at all!
The transparent fishing line was pulled up from the lake. At the end of the fishing line, a small Pokémon with a sushi-like appearance was connected.
That's...Mililong?
Naoki put away the fishhook, held up the light orange Mililiosaurus with both hands, and stared at it with a confused expression.
Mililong jumped twice and looked at the human in front of it with curiosity.
Under normal circumstances, it should feel scared at this moment and turn around and run away.
But this human being exuded an aura that made it feel very friendly. For a moment, Mililong forgot to run away, and looked at this human with his big eyes.
"It turned out to be Milililong!"
Someone among the onlookers quickly recognized the Pokémon.
Millosaurus is a dragon + water Pokémon with a very cunning and cunning character. It can inflate its throat sac to perform mimicry.
What's even more exaggerated is that although Milililong is small and has no strength, it knows how to use wisdom to survive.
Even among dragon Pokémon, Mililon's IQ is among the best!
They will live in the mouth of Chihouba to protect themselves from foreign enemies. Not only that, they will also direct the actions of Chihouba and join forces with each other to capture prey!
As for the smart Milililong, Chihouba also took the initiative to respect him as a leader.
"Awesome!" someone exclaimed.
You know, a cunning Pokémon like Mililion is very difficult to catch!
Sometimes, even if you catch a hundred rough and reckless cod, you may not be able to catch a Mililion.
Seeing the Milililong, Takeru Sato couldn't help but look solemn.
"As expected of a famous fishing celebrity here in Zhiqin Town! It seems that I will be able to show my full strength!"
Naoki: "..." He could only smile politely.
Looking at the Mililion in his palm, Naoki didn't know what to say for a moment.
Because through the perception of the power of dragon control, he saw that the Milili dragon deliberately bit his hook and let himself be caught!
