Chapter 541 Harvest, Return to the Pasture

"Is it really a test from Tapu Finfin?"

Naoki cast his eyes on the Z crystals in his hand.

One is blue, with a water drop mark in the middle, and looks like a clear and deep Z crystal like a sapphire.

That is exactly the purpose of Naoki's trip, which can upgrade the water-attribute Pokémon's move to Water Z of Super Water Flow Whirlpool.

In addition, there are two Z crystals.

One is almost the same color as the fur on Eevee, and another Z crystal has a lightning-shaped mark on it.

This is Eevee's exclusive Z and Electric Z.

In addition to the Fighting Z, Grass Z and Dream Z obtained from Tapu Chirp, Naoki has completed all the goals of this trip to Alola.

Tapu Chirp is really generous!

But then again, how did it know that he needed these attribute Z crystals?

Did it sense his wish to come here through the illusion?

Naoki looked at Tapu Fin-Fin doubtfully, and after a moment's thought, he asked, "Did you create the illusion just now?"

Tapu Fin-Fin thought of the adult's instructions, and then nodded gently: "Fin-Fin!"

Tapu Fin-Fin's mist actually has this kind of power...

This is somewhat beyond his expectations.

Thinking of the things in the illusion, Naoki's mood was very complicated for a while.

He originally wanted to observe Tapu Fin-Fin carefully, but now he no longer has that mood.

Forget it, since the purpose of this trip has been achieved, they no longer need to stay in the Alola region.

Thinking of this, Naoki touched the heads of the Pokémon around him, then took them back into the Poké Ball, looked up and said to Tapu Fin-Fin:

"Although I don't like that kind of test method, I still want to say thank you."

"Fin-Fin?" Tapu Fin-Fin blinked, a little puzzled.

Naoki smiled softly: "Thank you for letting me understand how important they are."

Tap Fin-Fin was slightly startled: "Fin-Fin..."

"Thank you for providing these Z-pure crystals. I think they will definitely play a role in the near future. We are going back." Naoki said.

After that, Naoki turned around and took Gulden away from the ruins of the other shore.

Tap Fin-Fin looked at their backs until they could no longer be seen, and then disappeared from the spot.

After leaving Poni Island, Naoki rode Gulden directly to Akala Island and returned to the ranch through the reverse world entrance there.

It was afternoon in the Alola region, but early morning in the Padia region.

Naoki adjusted the time on Rotom's mobile phone to the Padia time zone and found that it was already four o'clock in the morning.

The Pokémon in the ranch were sleeping and did not notice Naoki's return.

After returning to the ranch, Naoki did not go into the house immediately, but stood on the grass, blowing the familiar evening breeze, looking up at the deep night sky.

There was not a single cloud there, the stars and the moon were clearly visible, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the earth, giving people a dreamlike and unreal feeling.

"Ah, gah?"

Seeing Naoki standing there motionless, Gulden turned his head in confusion.

Naoki retracted his gaze, looking at the place where he had lived for several years, and said to Gulden: "It's okay, it just feels good to be home."

Gulden blinked, it seemed to understand something, turned its head and looked forward, and responded quite in agreement: "Ah, gah!"

Naoki took a deep breath, then took out the Poké Balls of the mount goats and released them.

With a few flashes of white light, the figures of Babu Tubo and others appeared in the pasture.

Naoki pushed open the door and entered the living room, and the motor lizard sleeping in front of the fireplace was immediately awakened.

"Gaao?!"

Seeing that it was Naoki, it rubbed its eyes sleepily.

"Go back to sleep!" Naoki smiled slightly, then went to the kitchen quietly and prepared some food for the Pokémon who had not eaten dinner yet.

After they all finished eating, Naoki lay down on the bed and took a nap.

In order to adjust his work and rest schedule, Naoki only slept for five hours.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside, and the warm sunlight shone into the house through the window. The chirping of wild bird Pokémon came from outside the window.

Before Naoki sat up, an Eevee who saw him wake up immediately rushed over excitedly, pressed his chest with two small meat pads, and asked excitedly:

"Bu-i-bu-i?"

Fairy Eevee, Ice Eevee, and Flareon also jumped onto the bed and surrounded Naoki in a circle.

As early as when they woke up in the morning, the Eevees heard the good news from Babu-Dog that Naoki had successfully returned with the treasure.

Before Naoki left, every Eevee knew that Naoki would help them find treasures that would turn them into powerful Eevees.

Therefore, when Naoki came back, all the Eevees were very excited.

But in the morning, the sister Ai Butler came and said that Naoki came back too late yesterday and didn't rest well, so he shouldn't be disturbed.

So the Eevees stayed at home honestly today, and didn't even go to their favorite World Tree.

Naoki, who had just woken up, was a little confused, but looking at his partner Eevee in front of him, he quickly came back to his senses.

——Partner Eevee wanted to use its exclusive Z move, the nine-color sublimation gathered at the top!

Naoki took his partner Eevee off his body and said helplessly: "Can I have a glass of water first?"

"Buee!" His partner Eevee nodded.

The fairy Eevee on the bed jumped off the bed and ran to the living room. After a while, he ran in with a glass of water on a ribbon and said: "Buee~"

Drink it, it's here!

Naoki: "..." If you are too kind, you are either a traitor or a thief!

But he knew what the Eevees were thinking, so after drinking the glass of water, Naoki got off the bed and brought the Eevees to the ranch.

"Are you ready?" Naoki installed Eevee's exclusive Z on the Z bracelet.

"Buee!"

The Eevees nodded their heads with high morale.

"Very good, let's get started!"

Naoki concentrated and gently touched the Z pure crystal on the bracelet.

The next second, a dazzling colorful light emerged from Naoki's body, and then poured into the body of the Eevee in front of him.

Feeling the sudden extra power in his body, the partner Eevee opened his eyes wide, and then looked up to the sky and let out a cry.

"Eevee--Eevee!"

A circle of invisible ripples spread rapidly in all directions with it as the center.

The other Eevees touched by this circle of ripples were stunned, because they also felt the power emerging from their bodies!

Then, a magical scene happened.

A green light burst out from Leaf Eevee's body, until the whole body turned into a ball of green light, and then slowly rose into the air.

Flame Eevee, Glaceon, Sylveon, Moon Eevee, Sun Eevee, and Jolteon all lit up with the light corresponding to their body colors!

The colorful light poured from their bodies into the body of the partner Eevee, and the whole body of the partner Eevee instantly burned with a dazzling flame like a rainbow!

Partner Ibrahimovic, who was in the middle of it, looked down at his body in disbelief.

"Bu, Bui!" Such a powerful force!

It now felt a flame burning in its body, as if it had endless power!

"Bui!"

Partner Ibrahimovic, who was familiar with this power, turned around and looked at Naoki behind him. It was ready to fight!

Naoki: "..." There is no challenger here?

"Bui..." Ibrahimovic showed an uncomfortable expression on his face. It felt so uncomfortable that it had so much power but no place to use it!

Seeing this, Naoki thought for a while and called Gulden to help carry the big stone on the other side of the river.

Gulden did so and soon moved the stone in front of Ibrahimovic.

Naoki said: "Use all your strength to attack this big stone now!"

"Bui!"

Partner Ibrahimovic shouted, and then with the rainbow flame, he suddenly used the impact on the big stone.

"Boom!"

After a loud noise, the big rock was smashed to pieces by Eevee.

"Booee!" Eevee, his partner, was extremely excited and turned around to shout at Naoki: "Booee Booee!"

Did you see it? It has become so strong now that it can smash such a big rock into pieces in one go!

Naoki: "..."

Although breaking rocks is very easy for Pokémon at the level of Gulliver and Dragonite, it is already very powerful for Eevee who has not experienced much training.

Especially, his Eevee is not an ordinary Eevee.

Just imagine, how can Eevee, who drinks life goat milk and bathes in natural energy every day, be an ordinary Eevee.

Their physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary Eevee.

Naoki had previously seen a video posted by a trainer on the Internet of his own special training of Eevee.

The other party had also used stones as Eevee's imaginary enemy.

But the difference is that the Eevee not only failed to break the stone, but also hit a bump on its head...

At this time, the colorful light on Eevee disappeared, which means that the duration of the Z move Nine Colors Sublimation Gathering Top has ended.

Eevee, who was originally very excited, immediately felt very tired and exhausted.

"Buee..." It looked at its body in confusion.

"Don't worry, this is just a side effect of using Z moves. Go drink a glass of goat milk and then go play with everyone!" Naoki comforted.

Although the other Eevees were the ones who borrowed power, they were not as tired as their partner Eevee.

But some Eevees were not very happy.

Because they couldn't use such a powerful move.

Seeing this scene, Naoki wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Ice Eevee say to everyone:

"Buee Buee!" (Because that is the compensation for Eevee's lack of evolution!)

The other Eevees looked at it.

Glaceon continued, "Buee Buee." (Flame ate Naoki's sacred bun and gained a powerful flame, Jolteon ate the lightning bun and gained a powerful electricity, Leafeon ate the grass on the World Tree every day and had a strong grass attribute energy, and there were also Sun and Luna Eevee that could absorb moonlight and sunlight as energy!)

Glaceon looked at his partner Eevee again and continued, "Buee!" (Only Eevee didn't gain anything, so let's consider this as compensation for it!)

After hearing what Glaceon said, everyone thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case.

This was originally a small matter, and the Eevees were soon relieved. Their partner Eevee got a very powerful move, and now they can go to the World Tree to play!

The Eevees said goodbye to Naoki and ran away happily.

And Naoki winked at Glaceon.

As expected of the Eevee who had been with him the longest! So reliable!

"Eevee..." Glaceon exhaled softly.

After all, it watched these Eevees hatch from eggs and grow up, and it didn't want to see conflicts between them.

This feeling is probably the same as the parents of Dragonite watching Dratini! Glaceon thought.

No, it's still different.

Glaceon thought of the way Dragonite's parents threw Dratini's egg to Naoki and ignored it, and decisively denied his previous idea.

On the way to the World Tree, the other Eevees suddenly found that Glaceon didn't follow, so they stopped and called it.

Glaceon then chased after it.

Looking at the backs of a group of Eevee, Naoki shook his head helplessly.

He returned to the living room and put away the Z crystals of Dream Z, Electric Z, and Fighting Z that were not needed for the time being, leaving only Grass Z for Budcrest and Water Z for Kyogre.

Now all the things that should be done have been done, and the next step is to slowly wait for Arceus to wake up in the ranch and wait for the arrival of the plot.

However, when storing the Z crystals, Naoki suddenly saw the Taijing Pearl in the drawer.

It was given to him by Dr. Orin when he went to the Zero Area Research Institute a few years ago.

Naoki suddenly thought of one thing, can Pokémon use Z moves when they are Taicrystalized?

Taicrystalization can increase the power of Pokémon moves, and Z moves also have this effect.

In this way, the attack power of Budcrest or Kyogre can be maximized.

Thinking of this, Naoki immediately found Babu Tubo and tried it with Electric Z.

The answer is feasible.

In this way, their chances of winning will be a little better.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.

The next step is to slowly wait for Arceus to wake up.

May 20, 201, League Calendar, summer.

Since the last trip to Alola, Naoki's life has returned to its former tranquility.

This day is the day when Chandler returns from his studies.

After several months of study at the Pokémon Center, it has completely mastered the knowledge of identifying Pokémon injuries and tree fruits.

Early in the morning, it waved goodbye to Naoki, and with a heart that wanted to help injured Pokémon, it went to the Expedition Guild, where it started its career as a Pokémon doctor.

After sending Chandler to the World Tree, Naoki returned to the ranch.

Summer is here, the weather is getting hotter, and he has to start working again, after all, his main job is still a rancher.

The fields are replaced with crops suitable for summer planting, and Dragonite stands by to summon rain clouds to help water the land.

Looking at the thriving fields in front of him, Naoki felt very at ease.

This is the right life!

"San Di Shu, thank you for your hard work!" Naoki looked at San Di Shu who was helping to plow the land, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to eat anything? You can order now! I'll make it for you right now."

"Squeak?!" Hearing this, San Di Shu's eyes lit up. It wanted three super-large sandwiches so that each head could eat!

"Okay, I'll make it for you right now."

Naoki smiled and returned to the living room. As soon as he opened the door, the video phone at home suddenly rang.

"Huh?"

Naoki was a little surprised. After all, the video phone at home had not been used much since the advent of the Internet age.

Although he regarded that number as the official number of Naoki Ranch, few people would call it on weekdays.

Because everyone in the town is familiar with the ranch, and they have always maintained the habit of ordering from the ranch.

Naoki stepped forward to answer the call, and soon the voice of Professor Oak came out from inside.

"Hello, is this Naoki?"

"Professor Oak?" Naoki was stunned: "Why did you call this number?"

"Haha, my Rotom phone is lost, and now I can only find your old number." Professor Oak explained.

Naoki: "..."

"Okay, what's the matter with calling today?" Naoki asked.

Professor Oak grinned and said: "It's like this, I'm planning to hold a summer camp recently, but the address of the summer camp has not been selected yet. I think there are many Pokémon living in your ranch, so I want to ask if you have time and venue there. I want to take these children there."
