Chapter 21 Obtain the orange badge and board the Santo Anu
In the early morning, Wuma stood on the platform of the lighthouse and looked at the sea. The sea breeze blew gently, bringing with it the salty smell of sea water.
Xiaomi is looking for Pokémon on the beach.
"Crab, don't run!" Xiaomi was running around chasing a crab. When the crab entered the sea, he had no choice.
"Wuma, it's time to eat." Xiaogang made breakfast again.
"good."
"Xiaomi, be back soon." Wuma shouted.
"knew!"
Xiaomi ran back quickly.
Everyone is sitting in the restaurant, preparing to have breakfast.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaogang." Zhenghui said.
"It doesn't matter. When I usually travel, I am responsible for the meals."
"I heard that you are going to Kuye City?" Zhenghui asked.
Wuma nodded: "I plan to challenge the Dead Leaf Gym."
"Work hard, I hope to see your wonderful performance at the alliance conference."
"Don't worry, I will try my best."
"By the way, here are three tickets for the Sante Annu. It will dock in Kuye City in five days. You can go and take a seat then."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Zhenghui."
Wu Ma did not refuse and collected the ticket.
After breakfast, the three of them left the lighthouse and continued towards Dry Leaf City.
Kuye City is still some distance away from Zhenghui Lighthouse. After continuing to travel in the wild for two days, the three of them finally arrived at Kuye City.
The first place they went to was naturally the Pokémon Center. Everyone gave the Pokémon to Ms. Joy for treatment, and then asked for a room to stay in. Putting down their backpacks, the three of them took a good bath. Fortunately, they were at the lighthouse before.
I took a shower, otherwise my whole body would be smelly now.
After washing up, everyone took their Pokémon back and sat in the Pokémon restaurant to eat.
"Xiaomi, what are your plans next?" Wuma asked.
Wuma said before that they would separate after sending Xiaomi to Kuye City.
"Of course we're going on a trip."
"Then do you want to challenge the gym? If you want, you can go to the Dead Leaf Gym with me to try it out."
Xiaomi shook his head: "I don't plan to challenge the gym. I want to spend a year traveling around various cities to see more Pokémon. I will challenge the gym next year and participate in the alliance conference.
"
Wu Ma nodded. For most new trainers, even if they collect badges, it is difficult to get results in the competition. Travel and grow with the Pokémon first, and then participate in the competition after becoming stronger.
good.
"Then where are you going next?" Wuma continued to ask.
"I haven't decided on this yet. Brother Wuma, otherwise I will travel with you!"
Wu Ma did not hesitate and nodded.
"Of course."
It's quite fun to get along with Xiaomi these days. Xiaomi is very lively and can liven up the atmosphere in the team.
"Then please give me more advice in the future."
Xiaomi smiled happily: "Please give me your advice."
After having breakfast, Wuma went to the Dead Leaf Gym.
Wu Ma entered the gym to register for an appointment, and also learned that the gym trainer of the Dead Leaf Gym was Ma Zhishi.
Ma Zhishi mainly uses electric-type Pokémon. He has a hot temper and is not very merciful during battles. Therefore, many trainers' Pokémon were seriously injured after fighting with him.
Wu Ma is not particularly worried about this. He understands that injuries will occur in battles, and as long as the trainer controls it well, Pokémon can be prevented from suffering serious damage.
There was a challenge before Wuma, so they still had to wait for a while. Taking advantage of this time, the three of them had a good walk around Kuye City. Wuma found that there were many kinds of food in Kuye City, some of which
He has never seen it.
Wuma bought a lot of food, and when he came to the Dead Leaf Gym again at the appointed time, his stomach was a little full.
"Brother Wuma, come on!" Xiaomi cheered.
"Don't worry, it'll be no problem." Wuma was very confident.
The three of them walked into the gym and met Ma Zhishi.
"A few more brats are here, who wants to challenge the gym?"
Ma Zhishi's voice was very loud and intrusive. Xiaomi pulled Xiaogang's clothes with some fear. Ma Zhishi not only had a loud voice, but also a huge figure.
"It's me." Wu Ma took a step forward. He was not afraid of Ma Zhishi.
"Then come with me, little one. Don't tremble with fear for a while."
The three men, Wu and Ma, followed Ma Zhishi to the inner room. There was an ordinary battle field here.
"Hurry up, go to your position. Resolve the battle quickly, don't waste time."
Ma Zhishi's words made people feel really uncomfortable, but the trainers from other gyms were much more amiable.
"What about the rules? And there is no referee?" Wuma asked.
"There are no rules in my gym. Two Pokémon are used to battle, and whoever is still standing at the end wins. As for the referee, there is no need for that kind of thing."
"This is my first Pokémon!"
Ma Zhishi threw an elf ball, and a red and white elf appeared on the field.
The Horseman Pokémon is an electric-type Thunderball. There are also Pokémon that Wuma can deal with.
"Go! Mountain rat."
Pangolin is a ground-type Pokémon, and electric-type special moves have no effect on it.
"Ground-type Pokémon are indeed a good choice. But you are only using cute babies."
"Thunder ball, use impact!"
The thunder ball rolled quickly towards the mountain rat.
"Water Mountain Rat, use it to dig burrows."
The mountain rat waved its paws, quickly dug a hole, hid underground, and escaped the attack.
The thunder ball stopped spinning and looked around, looking for the location of the mountain rat.
Suddenly, the pangolin rushed out from under the thunder ball and pushed it into the air.
"Use the mountain rat, use impact."
The pangolin jumped up and hit the falling thunder ball into the air again.
"Thunder ball, use sonic boom!"
The thunder ball sent shock waves in the air.
"Water Mountain Rat, get out of the way."
The pangolin turned into a ball and rolled away to avoid the attack.
The thunder ball fell to the ground and rolled towards the mountain rat again.
"Mountain rat, use rolling impact."
The pangolin curled its body, rolled over like a ball, and collided with the lightning ball. The huge repulsive force knocked both balls away.
"Thunder ball, use impact again."
"Water Mountain Rat, don't lose! Let him see how powerful we are!"
The pangolin bumped into it again, and the two Pokémon collided and continued to collide.
Suddenly, the thunder ball suddenly stopped.
"Use self-destruct!"
"Get out of the way!"
The thunder ball emitted white light and exploded the next moment. When the smoke dissipated, the mountain rat's body was not found.
When the pangolin heard that the lightning ball was about to explode, it dug a hole and hid underground. Although it still suffered some damage, it did not directly lose its ability to fight.
The pangolin rushed up from the ground and knocked the thunder ball away. When the thunder ball fell quickly, it hit the ground and lost its fighting ability.
"Come back, thunder ball." Ma Zhishi took the thunder ball back.
"Not bad, not as weak as I thought. But the Pokémon you have to face next will not be the same as before."
"Come on, Raichu." The second Pokémon sent by Ma Zhishi was Raichu.
Wu Maxi remembered that at that time, the Raichu beat Xiaozhi's Pikachu severely, and then Pikachu took revenge again. From this point, it can be seen that the strength of Ma Zhishi's Raichu is definitely not weak.
"Leichu, use one hundred thousand volts."
Raichu released one hundred thousand volts, hitting the mountain rat.
"It's useless. Electric-type special moves have no effect on mountain rats."
"Really?" Ma Zhishi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
At this moment, the pangolin suddenly let out a cry of pain, as if it had been seriously injured.
"Come back, pangolin rat." Wuma quickly took the pangolin rat back.
Ma Zhishi said with a smile: "You are too naive, kid. Electric-type special moves really have no effect on ground-type Pokémon. But that is for those of the same strength. The difference in strength is too big, and there is no so-called immunity.
Functional."
Wu Ma clenched his fists, feeling very guilty at this time. He had always said that attributes could not determine everything, but at this time, he naively thought that the mountain rat's ground attributes could be invincible.
Ma Zhishi continued: "But you took back the Pokémon in time, so you are still a competent trainer."
"I won't be so careless next time. I'll leave it to you, Stinky Flower."
The second Pokémon sent by Wuma is Stinky Flower. Stinky Flower is not only advantageous in terms of attributes, but its strength is also quite powerful. It is a very good choice to use it to deal with Raichu.
"Leiqiu, use lightning flash."
Raichu rushed over at extremely fast speed and knocked Stinky Flower to the ground.
"Leichu, use Iron Tail!"
"Stinky flower, seed machine gun."
Stinky Flower sat on the ground and used the seed machine gun at close range to hit Raichu back.
After Leichu fell to the ground, he quickly stood up again.
"Raichu, use Megaton Punch."
Thunder Ball rushed over and punched Stinky Flower.
"Stinky flower, use paralyzing powder."
The Stinky Flower quickly released paralyzing powder, covering the surrounding area.
"Leichu, come back!"
Raichu jumped backward, leaving the coverage distance of the paralyzing powder.
"Leichu, use one hundred thousand volts."
Raichu released a powerful electric current and hit the Stinky Flower. The Stinky Flower resisted the power of one hundred thousand volts and managed to withstand it.
One hundred thousand volts did not cause much harm to the stink flower.
"Keep using the seed machine gun."
"Leichu, use lightning to dodge, and then use Megaton Punch."
Raichu ran quickly, dodged the seed bullets, and then quickly approached the Stinky Flower.
At this time, the paralyzing powder had dissipated, and he came directly to Smelly Flower and punched her.
"Stinky flower, stay away."
Stinky Flower ducked to the side.
Leiqiu rushed forward due to inertia, but a hole suddenly appeared in front of it, and Leiqiu suddenly fell into the hole. This hole was just dug by the mountain rat. Stinky Flower was waiting for it to fall into it.
Seeing Lei Qiu fall into the hole, Ma Zhishi was also a little surprised.
"Very good, use paralyzing powder."
Stinky Flower released paralyzing powder into the hole, and the entire hole was quickly filled.
Raichu was affected by the paralysis powder and was unable to move.
"Stinky Flower, use Sun Flame."
The Stinky Flower condensed its energy and emitted blazing sunlight into the cave. An explosion occurred underground, and the ground shook violently.
Raichu completely lost his ability to fight and could no longer get up on his own.
"You are quite interesting, you are not a weak baby! Okay, Raichu, I will make it myself. Here is the badge for you."
Ma Zhishi threw a badge to Wu Ma.
Wu Ma caught the badge, which was an orange-red badge that looked like the sun.
"Anyway, thank you very much, Mr. Ma Zhishi."
Although Ma Zhishi has a bad temper, Wu Ma knows that he actually holds back. If he sends out his strongest Pokémon, it will be difficult for Wu Ma to win.
After getting the badge, Wu Ma left the Dead Leaf Gym. He quickly returned to the Pokémon Center and handed the pangolin to Miss Joy for treatment. Fortunately, he took the pangolin back in time, otherwise it would have been treated
It will be very troublesome.
Two days later, after the pangolin's injury was completely healed, the three of them, Wu and Ma, set off for the next city.
They looked at the map and decided that the next city they wanted to go to was Golden City. If they wanted to go to Golden City, they had to take a boat. Just before, Zhenghui gave them three tickets for the Sante Annu, and the time was just right.
When they arrived, they planned to take the Sante Annu to Golden City.
That afternoon, the three of them arrived at the port of Dry Leaf City. There were many ships parked here, some of which were cargo ships and some of which were passenger ships. At the same time, they also saw a very luxurious cruise ship, which was the Sante Annu.
Already.
"It's so big!" Xiaomi exclaimed.
It was also the first time for Wuma to see such a big ship, and he was equally surprised.
Many passengers have gathered here. They are all dressed in very formal and gorgeous clothes, and they look like very wealthy people. The three Wu and Ma people are in sharp contrast to them. Of course, there are still a few of them who are similar to Wu Ma.
Ma and others are dressed similarly.
Not long after, the ship door opened. Several people in sailor uniforms came down and started checking tickets.
After checking the tickets, the Wuma trio boarded the ship.
While climbing the stairs, Wuma was suddenly bumped into by a man. A man quickly ran from behind him to the front.
Wuma looked at the man. He was wearing black clothes and a black hat. He was sneaky and very strange.
At this moment, Wu Ma suddenly remembered the Saint Ann. The Saint Ann that Xiaozhi and the others were on was attacked by Team Rocket and the storm, and sank directly. Xiaozhi and the others almost died in the sea. There was no hope for this ship.
It would be better if nothing happens.
Before getting on the ship, Wuma felt that the ship was very big. But after getting on the ship, they really felt the hugeness. They walked for nearly a minute before walking from the deck into the cabin.
When they entered the cabin hall, they were surprised by the sight in front of them.
There are crystal chandeliers hanging from the top of the hall, and many famous paintings and decorations are hung on the walls on both sides. The floor is covered with very expensive carpets, and there are various drinks and food on the tables, and there is a band playing next to it.
Play music. Wu Ma has never seen such a scene. Sure enough, poverty limits imagination.
There are already some people in the hall at this time, and they have come from other cities. The Sante Annu will travel at sea for two months and will pass through many cities. In each city, people will get on and off the ship.
Wuma suddenly saw the man in black clothes from before. He was sitting alone in the corner, secretly looking around. Even though he was dressed strangely, he did not attract too many people's attention.
Wu Ma didn't care about him. As long as he didn't hinder him, there was no need to get into trouble.
The guests on the boat were chatting enthusiastically with each other on various topics. Wu Ma had no intention of chatting with them.
Wuma came to the dining table and took a glass of juice. After taking a sip, he found that the juice was very fresh, just like the juice squeezed from the fruit just picked from the tree.
Wuma picked up another piece of dessert and tasted it. It was quite delicious. Then, Wuma took a plate and quickly put all kinds of food on it. He piled a large plate full of it. Everyone else who noticed it used
A strange kind of eyes looked at him.
Wuma had nothing to be embarrassed about. Although he didn't spend money, these things were originally given to them to eat, and there were no restrictions.
Wuma suddenly remembered that Xiaomi and Xiaogang were missing. He took the food and walked and ate while looking for the two of them. Soon, he found Xiaogang and Xiaomi.
In addition to the guests in the boat, there were also various stalls inside, selling or displaying some interesting gadgets. Xiaomi was attracted to it.
And Xiaogang's goal was the beauties on the boat. When he came here, Xiaogang felt like he was in heaven, and he quickly became mingled with the beauties on the boat.
Wuma shook his head and prepared to continue getting something to eat.
"Brother Wuma."
Xiaomi ran over with two fishing rods.
"Brother Wuma, look, I bought two Pokémon fishing rods. Let's go fishing together! Maybe we can catch Pokémon."
"OK!"
Wu Ma has always liked fishing. As for catching Pokémon, he hasn't tried it yet, but he really wants to try it. Let's see if he can catch Pokémon in a foreign land.
Wu Ma released the Stinky Flower, and then put a plate of food on it for him to hold. The Pokémon wanted to catch, and the food also had to be eaten.
The two walked out of the hall and came to the deck.
Wuma hung the bait on the fishhook and then threw the fishhook out. The boat was not sailing at this time and was still on the shore. It is very difficult to catch Pokémon on the shore. Wait for the boat.
Once it is opened, it will be easier to catch it.
Sure enough, after waiting for a few minutes, no Pokémon bit the hook.
Xiaomi kept pulling up the hook to look.
"Xiaomi, be patient, you won't be able to catch Pokémon like this." Wuma said.
"I know, but I really can't help but want to watch it."
Wuma shook his head. It seemed that it was basically impossible for Xiaomi to catch Pokémon. He had to do it himself.
"By the way, Xiaomi, what Pokémon do you want to catch?" Wuma asked.
"Anything is fine, like Magikarp, Magikarp, Starfish, and other Pokémon. My goal is to conquer all the water-type Pokémon in the Kanto region first."
Wu Ma did some calculations, and considering the evolved forms of Pokémon, there were only twenty or thirty types of water Pokémon in the entire Kanto area, so it would not be difficult to collect them.
At this time, Wu Ma suddenly saw some people below, pushing some black boxes into the cabin. Unexpectedly, the Sante Annu not only carried people but also cargo.
Wuma turned his head and suddenly saw the man in black not far away from him. The man's attention was also on those boxes, and Wuma guessed that his target was probably the contents of the boxes.
He doesn't know how many of his people are on board. It would be terrible if it causes a big chaos.
Half an hour later, the ship's whistle sounded, and then the entire Santo Annu started to move.
When the boat started moving, Wu Ma realized that he was seasick!
Wuma felt that his whole head was dizzy and his feet were a little weak.
"Xiaomi, I have to go back first."
"Brother Wuma, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. You can continue fishing. I'll just go back by myself. Stinky Flower, let's go."
Stinky Flower quickly followed the Wuma, and it also discovered that something was not right about the Wuma's state.
Wuma stood unsteadily and staggered towards the guest room on the ship.
Suddenly, a wave crashed over and the boat shook greatly.
Wuma couldn't stand still and immediately threw himself against a door and started vomiting.
At this time, the door opened, and Wuma threw himself over. The other party caught Wuma.
Wuma looked up and found that it was the man in black from before.
"I'm sorry, I went in the wrong direction... ugh!"
Wuma couldn't help but vomited again. Because he had eaten too much just now, there was a lot of vomit, which sprayed directly on the man in black.
The other person frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"I have medicine here, do you want to take some?" the man suddenly said.
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you." Wu Ma had never thought that he would get seasick before, and he didn't bring any medicine.
Although Wuma didn't want to come into contact with this man, now he was thinking more about how to make himself less seasick.
The man helped Wu Ma into the room and sat on a chair. He took out a bottle from his backpack, poured out two pills and gave them to Wu Ma.
When Wu Ma was about to pick him up, he suddenly stopped. He didn't know the other party's identity yet, so if he took the medicine rashly, something might happen.
The other party seemed to have noticed this. He put the medicine into his mouth and swallowed it, and then took out two more Wuma pills.
"Thanks."
Wuma took the medicine and put it into his mouth, then drank the drink handed over by Smelly Blossom Flower in one gulp.
"Where is your room? I'll take you back!"
Wu Ma took out the room key tag, which read 27.
"Okay, I'll take you back."
The man helped Wu Ma and sent him to room 27.
After entering the room, Wuma lay down directly on the bed.
"Hey~" Stinky Flower walked to Wuma's side, very worried.
The man said: "It doesn't matter. You will feel much better after taking the medicine and resting for a while. There are some medicines here. I'll give them to you. Take them every six hours. Don't take too much."
Wu Ma waved to express his thanks, but now he had no extra energy to speak.
The man didn't interrupt too much, walked out of the room and closed the door.
