However, Xia Mu quickly noticed that the Lord of the Sky had regained consciousness.
After glancing at Joey, who was still treating Shishi Bird, Natsuki decided without hesitation to play the bad cop. With the help of the gentle Joey, Natsuki believed that Shishi Bird would definitely reveal the exact location of the secret seasoning.
The effect was obvious. When Xia Mu walked up to Xia Shi Niao angrily and demanded compensation, he glanced at Mibrim, who was putting the large bag into her backpack not far away, and finally chose to hide his head, which was even bigger than Miss Joy's, behind Miss Joy's back.
"Huh~"
Amidst the pitiful cries of the stonebird, Joey scratched his head.
"Your problem is indeed quite serious. If Xia Mu and the others hadn't reacted quickly, they might all be in the hospital with broken bones by now!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Mu's eyes widened.
"A fracture?! Anyone would be dead in that situation—right?!"
As they talked, Xia Mu suddenly became a little uncertain.
At that moment, countless images flashed through his mind: the Team Rocket trio being blasted away and landing but still healthy, the Superman-like Green Warrior, and Nurse Joy casually splitting a giant rock, among others.
Even he himself, through countless battles with Officer Jenny, became a terrifying upright ape who could outlast Joey's attacks by a few more moves.
"Even so, it takes a hundred days to recover from a serious injury. If I get infected, I won't be able to pass the Taijing test. If I can't use Taijing transformation, I can't perform dazzlingly at the Hinoki Tournament and become the top star of the United States. If I can't be the top star, I won't make money. If I can't make money, I might go astray. If I go astray, I might destroy the world—so, you have to pay me back!"
[·—·?]
The stone bird looked at Miss Joey with a blank expression.
"What?! (Did I throw a rock and destroy the world?!)"
Miss Joey's gaze was somewhat unfocused. Although she knew that Xia Mu had exaggerated the amount of food to scare Xia Shi Niao, at this moment, Miss Joey still found it difficult to look Xia Shi Niao in the eye. However, Miss Joey felt that perhaps letting Xia Shi Niao know the seriousness of the matter would make him more restrained in the future.
Miss Joey nodded.
"This is the legendary butterfly effect!"
Moreover, whether to persuade the Lord of the Sky or to persuade himself, Joey told a story that circulated in the Parthian region.
It is said that eight hundred years ago, the Pardia Empire was at war with other countries in the Pardia region, and one of the kings had a flaming unicorn from another region.
On the morning before the war was about to begin, the king ordered his groom to change the horseshoes of his unicorn, Flamingo. However, as the war was about to start, the blacksmith discovered that he did not have enough nails. When he tried to hammer out another nail to secure the horseshoes, the groom refused.
"The enemy is advancing, and we need to engage them on the battlefield as soon as possible! Could you please shoe them?"
"Yes, but it's not that sturdy!"
"It's alright, the king won't charge anyway!"
As a result, when the king was about to negotiate face-to-face with the King of Padia in front of his army, a horseshoe suddenly fell and caused him to fall flat on his face in front of everyone, while the horn of the Galarian Fiery Horse also stuck in the king's buttocks.
Ultimately, due to an infection caused by the anal fissure, the king sent [medicine/medicine].
The entire population of this disgraced nation unanimously chose to integrate into the Padian Empire, abandoning its original name as the "Land of Chrysanthemums" and living in the Padian region under the name of the Padian Empire.
Stone Bird: "————"
Natsuki: ""
At this moment, Xia Mu's expression was basically the same as Xia Shi Niao's.
What was initially thought to be a story of a country losing its identity because of a single nail turned out to be a bizarre tale of a country ultimately choosing to abandon its name and join another nation due to social decay.
To be honest, at this moment, Xia Mu didn't know whether to feel sorry for the king or for that gorgeous, fairy-like Galarian Rapidash.
However, at this moment, the Shishio bird, seeing Natsuki's gaze inexplicably drifting towards its little bird's rear end, finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Wow! (I have something good, I can pay for it!)"
Amidst the terrified screams of the stone bird, Xia Mu's plan finally succeeded.
Riding the enormous Sky Lord, Xia Mu and the others traveled to a nearby mountain and found the clusters of green secret seasonings behind a huge rock wall.
Once again, she skillfully instructed Ah Miao to gather the prepared seasonings and prepare breakfast.
As Snake Sister resumed her busy work, Xia Mu, meanwhile, was lost in thought, gazing at the Sky Lord not far away.
"Hey, do you want to come with me—"
Before Xia Mu could finish speaking, Chang Kong Bao Zhu, who was hiding behind Nurse Joy, slammed his entire head into the Poké Ball at Nurse Joy's waist.
Duang!
The crisp sound of subjugation echoed on the mountaintop, causing an angry cross to appear on Xia Mu's forehead.
"You bastard—don't think you're safe just because you're hiding inside a Poké Ball!"
Natsume rushed toward Nurse Joy, ready to pluck out the guy's tail feathers and humiliate him among Flying-type Pokémon.
but.
"Calm down—uh-huh~"
As Joey tried to avoid Natsuki, she felt a large hand suddenly grab her soft waist, and couldn't help but let out a soft moan.
Joey, whose waist had always been sensitive, blushed bright red. After angrily shaking off Xia Mu's large hand from her waist, she immediately ran behind Xiao Yao and Zi Yu.
Then, the three of them seemed to start whispering about crickets in the summer wood.
As for Xia Mu—
Right now, all he can think about is the image of Joey's blushing face.
Because of the striking resemblance between Joey and others, and the unexpected sight of Joey blushing, Xia Mu's mind instantly conjured up an image of Joey shyly and coquettishly acting cute towards him.
"Could I use this method to make A-Miao blush?"
Xia Mu began to consider using this method to escape punishment if he angered Qiao Yimiao in the future.
At this moment, Qiao Yimiao was unaware that Xia Mu was already planning a rebellion. She was currently troubled by the monkey-like Qiao Yi in front of her.
When Joy received the news that Xia Mu had found another treasure owner and discovered the secret seasoning, Joy, who was eavesdropping on Joy and Xia Mu's phone call, was disappointed not to hear any sweet words, but was also amazed by Xia Mu's luck.
Although they had heard from Qiao Yimiao before that Xia Mu was very lucky.
but.
"Why should we? We contacted all the Nurse Joys in the Padilla region to help keep an eye out for Pokémon that have acquired owners!!"
"Yeah, why is Natsuki faster than us?!"
"Is this really just luck? Did you secretly tip Natsuki off?"
Joey and the others all looked very puzzled.
While their group chats are usually just for gossiping and spreading rumors, when it comes to gathering information, the Nurse Joys at the Pokémon Center, where trainers inevitably gather, are definitely world-class.
Even so, they were still slower than Natsuki in finding their Pokémon.
Of course, these are not really big problems.
The reason they were screaming was to see the usually calm Joyce Miao reveal a shy expression.
So, one by one, they began to perform short skits.
"Great, thank you for helping me find the location of my Pokémon's owner!"
"You're welcome, Mu. It's what I should do!"
"Mua~"
"Mua~"
"Oh! They're going to kiss!!" N
Qiao Yimiao: "————"
