Chapter 19
"Ashida, I do know him."
Qianli nodded slightly, a thoughtful light flashed in his deep eyes, and he suddenly understood and said softly:
"I think this sudden Pokémon battle competition should be created by him."
"Did he invite you?"
Qianli continued to ask, and Jon nodded gently, "But I just won the first game, and it's not enough to question the level of trainers of my age."
"Well, the battle club has a very strict hierarchy, and the strongest among them has even reached the level of a king-level trainer.
He will invite you just because you don't have any background, so that you will have a high sense of belonging to their club."
Qianli said bluntly, without any euphemism in his words.
And Jon also nodded in agreement, with an understanding look on his face.
"So, I refused first."
Jon said calmly.
"It's okay to refuse, young man, you should still walk more and see more, life is not just about Pokémon battles.
If you blindly pursue battles, I'm afraid you will gradually develop a resistance mentality, which is the same for both trainers and Pokémon. In the end, even your own strength will decline."
Qianli said earnestly, and then looked at Jon gently, "Of course, Yashida's vision is very sharp. I guess he saw your talent."
Jon touched his head embarrassedly. This sudden compliment caught him off guard.
......
As time passed, the evening afterglow gradually enveloped the earth like a golden veil, and the ship slowly approached the dock of Kanaz City.
The destination has been reached, and the passengers have begun to move. They are either talking in a low voice or silently packing their luggage and preparing to disembark.
Jon carefully held the Pokémon egg and walked off the ship with Qianli's family.
It turned out that Qianli chose to get off the ship here because he was invited by President Zvochi of Devon Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Jon remembered that they had successfully developed a machine that could revive extinct Pokémon, but this had not been announced to the public.
The reason why Jon knew this was entirely because of his memory problem in his previous life.
Almost as soon as they got off the ship, everyone, including Jon, was immediately picked up by a special car.
However, Mitsuko and Xiaoyao showed no interest in this. On the way, they saw a large shopping mall. The prosperous and lively scene immediately aroused their desire to shop, so they got off the car halfway.
Jon actually wanted to go in his heart, but he was self-aware. He knew clearly that anything involving confidentiality had nothing to do with him.
Instead of wasting time there, it would be better to hang out with Mitsuko and the others, and replenish some necessary supplies by the way.
At this moment, he was already a little impatient to set off to find the giant jaw ant.
"Wow, this Kanaz City is so prosperous!"
It has been fifteen years, and this is the first time that Jon has left the Fighting Town. Facing the prosperous scene of Kanaz City, he couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.
When Mitsuko and Xiaoyao heard his sigh, they both covered their mouths and laughed.
Mitsuko smiled and said, "Jon, Kanaz City is not comparable to Fighting Town. The journey of conquering Pokémon is full of countless uncertainties.
So, you must also fill up the necessary supplies here before you can continue to set off."
"I understand, Aunt Mitsuko."
Jon nodded vigorously. He had already entered the mall. Looking at the lively scene of people coming and going in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in his heart.
If he hadn't seen some people with Pokémon lying on their heads or shoulders, he would have even begun to doubt whether he had returned to the original world.
"There are many Pokémon stores here, including supermarkets, pharmacies, and even vegetable markets. Xiaosheng and the others won't be back so soon, so let's go shopping together.
By the way, let Xiaoyao know what kind of tools she should carry in the wild to better ensure her own safety."
Mizuko said enthusiastically, holding Xiaoyao tightly with one hand and Jon tightly with the other hand, and she didn't feel any strangeness towards Jon at all.
During the shopping process, even when Jon was checking out, Mizuko burst out with invincible strength and forcibly pressed down Jon's hand that wanted to pay.
Fortunately, Jon's backpack was large enough toIt can hold a lot of things, and the Pokémon egg is also safely placed in the backpack.
They kept shopping until 10 o'clock in the evening, when the shops began to close one after another, and Mitsuko stopped with satisfaction.
Qianli and Xiaosheng also came to this mall and successfully picked up Mitsuko and Xiaoyao. Of course, they naturally did not leave Jon behind.
Because Qianli was invited, President Zfuchi specially opened three rooms for them in the most high-end hotel. Surprisingly, there was one room for Jon.
Since there was such a good thing for free, Jon didn't care about the so-called face. His original plan was to leave here directly and find a place to camp in the wild.
Although he has some money now, he needs to save some for emergencies.
"Come out, Gyarados, Big Wolf Dog."
In the hotel, there is a place specifically for Pokémon to come out and have fun. However, when Gyarados's huge body appeared, this area instantly became Jon's exclusive area.
Qianli also released the three Pokémon he brought with him, namely Hyperactive Monkey, King of Leave, and Bearcat.
It was already past eleven o'clock, which was not too late for Qianli, who had to stay up late all year round, but Xiaosheng ran out secretly because there were too many Pokémon here to attract him.
Just after swimming, the three people were sitting on chairs, drinking drinks leisurely and chatting casually.
"Jon, this is the first time I see Gyarados."
Xiaosheng's eyes flashed with excitement, and his face was filled with excitement. He put down the drink in his hand and jumped directly onto Gyarados.
Gyarados also knew clearly that this was Jon's friend, so it did not refuse, not to mention that there were three powerful Pokémon next to it staring at it covetously.
Gyarados, who was under great pressure, reluctantly accepted his fate and played with Xiaosheng.
