The Correct Way to Use the Imperial Brother
Chapter 97 The Correct Way to Use the Imperial Brother
Du forcibly ignored the other party's strange employment opinion, and was instead somewhat surprised.
"You never knew? But if I remember correctly, Joy Academy's curriculum includes practical medical treatment. You've never treated a Pokémon before?"
"Good question. I have indeed healed Pokémon, but the academy is too big, and the injured Pokémon are mostly those troublesome ones from the back mountain."
Zhu Suihan shrugged: "It means that since we've basically never met a second time, it's impossible to tell if someone has changed. That's roughly the idea."
Okay, at least the claim that it's a human-shaped power bank is now confirmed.
The white-haired monkey didn't think this was some kind of fantastical power setting, but rather that it was related to a characteristic that only appeared after reaching the highest level of cultivation.
Considering that he is an antique of unknown age, this ability should be somewhat similar to the characteristic of "ancient vitality".
Simply put, in sunny weather, a Pokémon's power is enhanced, especially its speed.
Besides the requirement of a sunny day, there is an even more convenient trigger condition: using the driving energy developed by the researchers in Zone Zero.
Zhu Suihan suddenly looked up: "Let me ask you a question, is this kind of enhancement permanent or temporary?"
Lance and Dragonite discussed it: "It has always existed, and it's completely different from the power gained by strengthening moves."
Alright, a magic-suppressing power bank, that makes perfect sense.
Not only are the energy cubes I make somewhat similar to experience candies, but it seems I myself am also a human-shaped experience candy.
The identity of the Imperial Brother is confirmed.
Zhu Suihan shook his head: "Thank you for the information. I roughly know what the process is like now."
It seems I need to be more careful when I make moves in the future, lest I accidentally cause a major disaster for someone else.
"How much has it been enhanced?"
Dragonite's eyes lit up: "Kailu?"
Hey bro, would you like to give me a full body massage?
Chenglong and Xiaoxiannai immediately glared at the chubby dragon in front of them.
You don't expect our trainers to be your laborers, do you?
That's very bold.
Du Qian coughed lightly: "The improvement is acceptable. At least for Dragonite's current strength level, it can be considered as saving two and a half months of training."
This is just the effect of pinching his arm. To be honest, he was already a little tempted by Dragonite's talk of a full-body massage.
"Well enough"
Zhu Suihan nodded blankly, suddenly realizing that Du was also the type of person who lacked martial ethics.
You call this kind of promotion "okay," right?
Zhu Suihan stroked his chin: "You'll be attending this year's Quartz League conference, right?"
Du was taken aback: "Of course, even if you can't become the regional champion directly, you can still accumulate a challenge spot for one of the Four Heavenly Kings after becoming the tournament champion."
"I'll just choose and take on the challenge within the allotted time. I plan to do it all at once, so that those people in my clan won't keep nagging me all the time."
Some trainers might consider reaching the top four a success, but for someone like Lance, given his family circumstances, he'd need to at least be a regional champion.
Whether you can get a spot among the Four Heavenly Kings is up to fate, but of course it would be best if you could.
As for the regional champion, it can only be said that Du still needs more practice and there's no rush.
"Oh, I've got another idea. When the conference starts, I'll go outside and sell these massage services."
The white-haired monkey stroked its chin: "Hmm, this kind of operation shouldn't be detected as doping, since it's a legitimate boost to strength."
What's wrong? As an intelligent being, is there a problem with me having a sudden epiphany?
Don't ask, the answer is that I'm carrying props!
Contestant: Yulong·Du
Main Pokémon: Dragonite.
Item to carry: [White-haired Monkey's Enhancement Blessing]
Effect: Permanently increases strength.
Crossing:
"This way, the use of illegal items won't be detected, but such unbalanced actions will definitely be caught by the league organizers."
Trainers who can reach the Indigo League are not weak. Unless they are so badly disadvantaged by the random matchmaking system, the battles are usually evenly matched.
If someone is pulling these kinds of tricks outside the competition venue, it's safe to say that their level of atrocity is comparable to the rampant and persistent betting on matches.
Thinking about it another way, if this guy were to get involved in those gray-area gambling operations, that would be an even more terrifying thing.
The white-haired monkey makes decisions based on off-match odds data, giving a boost to a certain player before the match starts. The bookmaker personally intervenes and manipulates the odds, guaranteeing a huge profit.
Then it would at least be an aggravated offense, most likely reaching the maximum penalty, and the kind of sentence that might not even give them a chance to go to a labor camp for the rest of their lives.
Lock them up until they die, absolutely lock them up until they die!
Wataru was a little tired, but this strengthened his resolve to train within the Alliance system, and he decided to choose the Investigator system.
This kind of person is really dangerous!
It's not that the other person is the kind of poacher who wears "I'm a bandit" on their sleeve; those kinds of people wouldn't even get past Officer Jenny.
Zhu Suihan is the kind of guy who knows perfectly well what he can and cannot do, but he still tries every means to challenge the bottom line and break the rules.
If such a person is not managed properly, perhaps Senior Jing will have to kill his own relative with a heavy heart.
Before that, no one knew what Zhu Suihan would do.
Joining the investigator system would at least allow them to keep a closer eye on this guy regarding his authority.
It can only be said that no matter which system it is, they all take it as their responsibility to combat crime and eliminate evil, but Du's current idea is to defend against the cold of bamboo.
It seems that no one knows that this guy has a hidden potential to be an outlaw; at most, they just think that this student from Joey Academy doesn't quite fit the academy's style.
As we all know, if a support character can wipe out all the enemies, that can be considered a form of support and protection.
So as long as we eradicate evil and completely crush the soil that can breed problems into dust, even the most outlaws will be easy to guard against.
But thinking about it this way, Du felt it was somewhat unbearable.
Even if he succeeds, and at the annual investigator awards ceremony he receives the Medal of Honor, when the host asks him to give a speech to inspire others, how should he answer?
Could it be that the main reason I joined the investigator system was just to protect my friend who could easily become an outlaw?
That's beyond outrageous.
It is abstract.
"What's wrong with you? You suddenly look so worried."
Zhu Suihan comforted him, "Don't worry, even if the price of the medicine is high, it's nothing for a large clan like yours with such a long history."
Du really wanted to say that he wasn't worried about the money, but he held back.
What if the other party tries to get to the bottom of things indirectly? Am I supposed to say something like, "I'm afraid you'll become a threat to society"?
Du felt that no matter how straightforward he was, he couldn't bring himself to say those words.
What if I blurt it out and prematurely activate someone's potential as a lawless outlaw?
"Then let's give it a try. I'll give your Dragonite a full physical examination, and you'd better prepare some Energy Cubes and nutrient solutions while you're at it."
Zhu Suihan reminded him that while an increase in life activity is a good thing, energy doesn't just appear out of thin air.
This isn't a bond charge during battle.
"However, I have to tell you first that I will definitely be using instruments to test Dragonite's body data later for subsequent comparisons. I don't know if you can accept that."
"Anything that doesn't harm Dragonite's body is fine."
Du naturally had no objections. He knew that Zhu Suihan needed a data sample for comparison, and the physical condition of the Dragonite was not some top-secret information.
"That's good."
"Kailiu!"
The Dragonite's fierce roar echoed throughout the open space. He had been holding it in since he was in the research lab. If Lance hadn't been using Dragon Taming to communicate and soothe it, the cost would have been far more than just compensating for the loss of a research lab.
Let's get this going, guys!
A surge of fighting spirit swept through the entire Joy Academy. Not only the Gyarados in the lake, but even the group of terrifying big shots on the back mountain all looked in the direction of the research building.
"Banji."
Tyranitar, the boss Gyarados mentioned and the strongest fighter in the back mountain, picked up a piece of ore and put it in his mouth.
It's a very powerful dragon-type energy, but it's still not as powerful as his.
Let others play with it. Anyway, even the big guy in the lake has improved a lot recently, so this little dragon cub is just a minor problem.
"Sure enough, the results were better than expected."
Zhu Suihan glanced at the two data charts in his hand: "Approximately how much has it improved?"
Du was delighted, but also somewhat surprised.
"The main force of the regional Four Heavenly Kings, this strength is definitely comparable to the main force of the regional Four Heavenly Kings!"
Zhu Suihan closed his notebook: "Hmm, the improvement is even greater than that of the Mini Dragon. I think I understand the logic behind this."
As Lance's main force, Dragonite's daily training and nutritional supplements are definitely top-notch.
In short, whether it's honing special skills or strengthening the body, a portion of it becomes "foundation," which is like accumulating experience points in a game.
As the elder brother of the king, he simply realized the value of accumulating experience points in the most suitable way for Dragonite, making Dragonite even stronger.
In the most harmless way, its strength was activated to the limit that Dragonite could currently withstand.
As Dragonite's strength increases, it will definitely accumulate more experience points in the future. After being strengthened again by him, it will form a beneficial cycle.
As for Chenglong and Xiaoxiannai, although they train on the Great Lake every day, their heads and bodies are almost covered in white fur, which is why they are in such a dark situation.
"This statement is very much in line with reality."
Wataru watched as Dragonite devoured his food stash and felt a headache coming on.
The original plan for this trip was to last a week, but he was worried about the quality of food outside, so he brought extra with him.
The Dratini and Dragonite have almost finished eating their stock.
I need to go ask those elders who are still negotiating if they have any stock.
Having figured all this out, Du looked at Zhu Suihan with burning eyes.
"I know you really like tree fruits, how about we..."
Zhu Suihan laughed: "It'll cost extra."
"I'll price you based on ten-year-old berries: ten for a Mini Dragon and thirty for a Dragonite."
Without hesitation, Wataru replied, "My other two partners are Hakron. I'm counting on you from now on."
The boss is generous!
