Chapter 290 Sister Xijiana has been arrested!

The red-faced dragon was fast asleep in the cave, snoring loudly.

"Brother Zeshu, isn't my partner amazing!"

Akamaru proudly puffed out his chest, showing Sawaki his best and proudest "partner".

Judging from its appearance, the red-faced dragon's powerful features are evident in its rhomboid structure that appears harder than rock, its strong, gnarled arms with distinct joints, and even its rough yet destructive claws.

But it has a nickname: the shame of the dragons.

While it could be described as a "shame," the Red-Faced Dragon wasn't actually that despicable.

To be honest, Ze Shu thinks that Red Dragon got this title mainly because it was released too early. Before Generation VI, Dragon-type Pokémon were all incredibly powerful, so it inevitably ended up at the bottom.

But if it had appeared a few generations later, perhaps this shame of the dragon race would have fallen on the heads of even more shameful creatures like the Old Man Dragon, the Poisonous Algae Dragon, and the Apple Dragon.

Ze Shu smiled and said, "Red-faced Dragon looks to be in great shape."

"Hehe..." Akamaru proudly rubbed his nose and laughed happily.

Sometimes, a child's happiness is that simple; all it takes is a word of praise that they agree with.

"But Granny Long won't allow me to spend too much time with my friends! She says I'm still too young!"

After laughing, Akamaru puffed out his cheeks again.

"They said they would only allow me to truly become partners with the Red-Faced Dragon if I grew to the age of Sister Higana!"

Only then can we leave Meteor Village and see the outside world...

""

"But I clearly heard that when Higana was eight years old, she went outside Meteor Village and did something incredibly important!"

Following Ze Shu, Higana, who had been unusually silent as she walked through Meteor Village, finally raised her head and said smugly, "Of course!"

She had no idea what important matter Akamaru was referring to.

But since it seems like a compliment, she might as well put on that "smug" act.

Ze Shu whispered to her, "Is this so-called big deal just that a Salamence can't beat a five-year-old child?"

'

Higana paused, then finally remembered what had happened. Her face flushed red, and she yelled at Ze Shu, "No matter what! No matter what! I... I freed Lord Dragon God back then! Tell me, wasn't the outcome good? Wasn't I, Queen Higana, amazing?!"

Ze Shu gave a thumbs up: "As expected of Queen Higana, you're amazing!"

Akamaru chimed in, "As expected of Higana-neechan, she's amazing!"

Higana chuckled sheepishly and scratched her head: "Hehe!"

Just then, it seemed that Higana's loud shouting had woken the red-faced dragon. It fluttered its slightly stiff little wings and stared at Higana with a fierce and unfriendly expression.

"Roar—!!!" Its roar was deafening.

"Ah!" Higana was startled by the sudden roar, then looked at the red-faced dragon and angrily said, "Why are you yelling so loudly!?"

The red-faced dragon's ferocious expression immediately wilted.

Then, clutching its hungry belly after a good night's sleep, it let out a weak growl: "Roar~"

Higana said with satisfaction, "Hmph! I forgive you! Go eat some stones yourself!"

The red-faced dragon turned away from the cave with a pitiful look on its face, dug a hole, dug out a meteorite that had been buried where it used to sleep, put it in its mouth, and started crunching on it.

It ate with a satisfying crunch, the meteorite fragments rustling as the red-faced dragon chewed with its bright red mouth.

Ze Shu: "————"

Akamaru whispered to Sawaki, "I heard from Pompom that my friend has been bullied by Sister Higana since birth! Honestly! My friend isn't afraid of anyone, except Sister Higana!"

then.

Akamaru, his big, round eyes darting around, whispered a request in Sawaki's ear: "Sawaki-nii, could you help me teach Higana-neechan a lesson?"

Ze Shu asked curiously, "How do you plan to teach him a lesson?"

Akamaru's eyes darted around, but before he could speak, Higana puffed out her cheeks and angrily shouted, "I heard you! Sawaki, you actually agreed to Akamaru's offer to teach me a lesson! How could you betray our deep friendship like this!"

"Hmph! Do you think I, Queen Higana, am so easily taught a lesson?"

"Sawaki, I've been putting up with you for so long!"

"I challenge you! Let me teach you a lesson!"

Feeling incredibly cool, Higanbana tossed two Poké Balls aside, and a Salamence and a Zephyr appeared on the field, wings outstretched.

"We must teach this swamp tree a lesson!"

Upon hearing the trainer's confident words, the previously menacing Salamence was immediately dumbfounded: "Roar?!"

Did I hear that right?

It...it hit the Zeshu tree?!

The Salamence was a little confused.

Suddenly, the roaring moon rushed towards Ze Shu.

quite a while.

Higana and the Safi'jiiva Roaring Moon beside her, whose head was swollen with a large bump, squatted on the ground, covering their heads and trembling, looking like defeated dogs.

In front of her, Ze Shu stood with his arms crossed, looking down at her and said, "What were you thinking just now? Why did you issue a challenge for no reason? Do you think you're so cool?"

Higana puffed out her cheeks, raised her head, and retorted, "Isn't he handsome?"

Ze Shu sneered twice: "Handsome? What good is being handsome? You have to be able to fight!"

The snow fairy on his shoulder also agreed with two "woo-woo" sounds, and then with a flick of her sleeve, melted the ice that had solidified on the Salamence's body.

The Roaring Moon Dragons finally breathed a sigh of relief; they had truly been trembling, both mentally and physically.

"I just can't beat you..." Higana muttered.

"Sawaki-nii-san is so amazing!" Akamaru cheered from behind, his rosy round face full of joy.

The red-faced dragon was also gnawing on the meteorite while cheering sincerely. At this moment, in its eyes, Ze Shu, who could defeat Xi Jiana, the "demon" who had bullied it since it was a child, was the truly powerful figure.

"Roar! Ro ...

From its mouth came a constant stream of rough and unkempt dragon roars—the highest praise the red-faced dragon could think of for Ze Shu, words that Ze Shu found nauseating.

He couldn't help but turn around and look at the red-faced dragon.

Then the red-faced dragon became excited, as if it had received the gaze of an idol: "Roar roar roar!"

Ze Shu said helplessly, "I'm not your boss."

The red-faced dragon continued to roar defiantly, "Roar! Roar! Roar!"

It's as if in the mind of this straightforward "brutal Pokémon," if you can't be a leader and make decisions on your own, then you have to acknowledge a leader, and you won't give up until you do.

Ze Shu: "————"

How come after beating up Higana, a "disgrace of the dragons" insists on recognizing him as their leader?

At this moment, Akamaru rolled his eyes, his mouth agape with a missing tooth, and shouted repeatedly, "Boss Sawaki! Boss Sawaki! You're not just the boss of the Red-Faced Dragon, you're my boss too! A boss even more powerful than Sister Higana!"

The red-faced dragon roared even more enthusiastically: "Roar! Roar!"

Zeqi: "???"

Has he become the king of the kids?

Although there is only one "child" named Akamaru in this Meteor Village.

For the next half day, Akamaru dutifully acted as a little tour guide, helping Sawaki understand the general layout of Meteor Village.

"This, this, and this too, Boss Zeshu, these are all paradises we Meteor Clan built for the dragons! But there aren't many... because only our combat comrades stay here..."

"Look, those are Brother Zhenya, Brother Pengpeng, and Brother Lianzuo's ace desert dragonflies! They're resting!"

"Although Granny Long said that Brother Zhenya and the others still need to train, it's always me who notifies them when something happens! So Brother Zhenya and his Desert Dragonfly are quite formidable among us Meteor Clan..."

"Huh??"

"Why do you seem so scared of Zeju-sensei when his Desert Dragonflies see him?!"

"Boss Zeshu, this is the monument of our Meteor Village! It records the prophecies of us Meteor People! Granny Long comes here every day!"

"Ah! I can't go there, I can't go there... Granny Long won't let me near this stone tablet! Every time I get close, Granny Long beats me up..."

"You ask me what the prophecy above is?"

"I don't know Akamaru!"

"All I know is that this prophecy seems to be coming true soon? Anyway, none of the uncles and aunties in the village dare to mention it! They all look so sad when it comes up..."

'

"It seems the villagers are afraid to have children, which is why I don't have any peers like you mentioned, Ze Shu! It's related to this prophecy!"

"Huh?! Boss Zeshu, you actually know what the prophecy is?!"

"You didn't even tell me?!"

In short, this place is simple and unpretentious, yet it is imbued with the essence of the oldest tribe in Hoenn.

That is.

The way the Meteor People looked at Ze Shu was as if they were looking at some kind of savior. Although they didn't actively disturb him, Ze Shu did feel a little uncomfortable.

It wasn't until evening, when the setting sun shone through the large hole in the roof of Meteor Village, casting a dim yellow light over the village, that Zeki returned to the guesthouse.

Akamaru was exhausted after a long day as a tour guide and felt drowsy when he got back.

"Akamaru, aren't you going home yet?" Sawaki asked.

"I won't go back, I won't go back!" Akamaru's drowsiness vanished instantly, replaced by terror. He cried out, "Boss Zeshu, I've already acknowledged you as my boss, you can't just kill me to cover it up! I won't report to Granny Long! Really!"

Ze Shu: "————"

He stood up and pushed Akamaru out the door: "Go away, go away! Who killed you to silence you? Go home now. You're so young, don't let your parents come after me—this is 'Boss Zeki's' order."

Akamaru obediently replied with an "Oh".

"I wish my mom and dad could really come and find you, Ze Shu..."

1

Ze Shu was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

Akamaru raised his round face proudly and said, "What I mean is, Boss Sawaki, now that I'm home, you can't silence me!"

"Go home quickly." Ze Shu waved his hand at him.

"whee!"

Akamaru skipped back home.

Watching his retreating figure, Zeki asked Higana, who was bullying the baby dragon, "Akamaru's parents..."

'

Higana snorted twice: "Let me tell you, Akamaru's parents look really fierce! Just like Red-Faced Dragon, their faces are all red! How about that, Sawaki, you're definitely scared they'll come knocking on your door now, aren't you!"

boom!

"Ugh!" Higana rubbed her forehead and squatted on the ground, muttering resentfully, "Wasn't bullying me this morning enough! You bastard, Zeki! One day I'll get a Salamander to carry you away... Uh ah! I mean, I mean, carry away your enemy, Zeki! Yes! That's it!"

Ze Shu: "————"

"Sawaki, these are the pictures we took of Meteor Village today." At that moment, Xiaolan had the hopping Archaeopteryx bring her a camera.

The image above shows what I saw in Meteor Village today. It's not very meaningful; it's just a record.

Zeshu casually flipped through the pages and came across the prophecy stone tablet in the Meteor Village that Akamaru was not allowed to see. He couldn't help but shake his head.

In short, the Meteor People's prophecy is that in 15 years, a colossal meteorite will strike the world, bringing about an apocalyptic crisis.

Therefore, under the threat of world destruction...

"Is this why people generally don't have children?"

Late at night, a sneaky figure stealthily crept into the Meteor Village Shrine next to the guesthouse.

"Hmph! Ze Shu won't let me steal the scroll, he wants to discuss it openly, but Grandma isn't so easily reasoned with! She'll let me, Queen Xijiana, steal that scroll tonight, and then..."

Higana could already imagine: Ze Shu wanted to "add the finishing touch" to the scroll, but the scroll was in her hands, so he had to beg her, and in the end, at her request, he was beaten up by her to get revenge for the bullying he had suffered that day.

"Hehehe..."

With a drool-free expression, Xijiana skillfully slipped into the ancestral hall.

As she groped her way into the center of the shrine, Higana, with the help of the moonlight filtering through the cracks in the wooden planks, saw the rolled-up scroll on the Dragon Stone offering.

On either side of the scroll, there are two bowls that are being offered at the same time.

A bowl was piled high with beads, beads with DNA helical stripes—those are the beads that allow Pokémon to Mega Evolve.

"Introduction" - Keystone.

The other bowl was completely empty.

That book contained the Mega Stones that Higanbana had already stolen and filled a sack with.

"Hmph, not only am I taking this scroll, but I'm taking all these keystones too. Then all three places will be empty, which will drive Grandma crazy!" Higana thought, puffing out her cheeks.

then...

In the shadows.

Suddenly, a cold voice rang out, sending chills down Higanbana's spine the moment she heard it: "Higanbana, who are you trying to anger?"

Higana turned her head in disbelief: "Grandma?!"

Granny Long said coldly, "You've really driven this old woman crazy!"

Before dawn, Sawaki was awakened by Akamaru's panicked shouts.

"Boss Zeshu! Boss Zeshu! Sister Xijiana has been captured! Sister Xijiana has been captured by Granny Long! This—"

"I didn't tip you off! Don't kill me to silence me! Granny Long told me to inform you!"
