Chapter 31 The Rescue Plan for the Homebody
The next morning, on his way to the Goldenrod Gym, Ash ran into the same old man again.
"Young man, it seems you get along very well with Sabrina."
"Uncle, can you tell me more about Naz?"
The uncle was surprised that Xiao Zhi would ask such a question, so he gestured for him to sit down on a bench next to the park.
"At first, Naz was an obedient and sensible child."
"But when Naz was young, she became so engrossed in training for superpowers that she didn't make friends and just immersed herself in the world of superpowers."
"Later, she recklessly used her superpowers, causing enormous damage to the city."
"Her parents tried to stop her, but she defeated them, and after that, Naz became like someone with a split personality."
"The doll that Sabrina always holds in her arms is what she looked like before she became obsessed with superpowers."
As he spoke, the uncle took out a family photo from his pocket and handed it to Xiaozhi.
"All trainers who fail to challenge Sabrina will be locked in her gym and forced to undergo psychic training."
"No trainer in Saffron City dares to approach within 100 meters of Sabrina's gym anymore."
This family photo is the same as the one that Naz displays in her toy town.
"You'll have this photo. Uncle, you're Naz's father, right?"
"You've been discovered, haven't you? You're the only brave person who's dared to challenge Sabrina in the last few years."
"I'm so incompetent, so I'm begging you, please save Naz!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi nodded. "I will do my best."
Leave your daughter to me.
After saying goodbye to the old man, Ash arrived at the entrance of the Goldenrod Gym once again.
Sabrina was indeed not late. She was already dressed in her sportswear and standing straight on the steps at the gym entrance, waiting for Ash without moving.
Behind her was a crowd of dojo students, all looking on in shock. "Lady Sabrina actually walked out of the dojo!"
Ash brought Misty, who was also dressed in sportswear and looked youthful and beautiful, to meet up with Sabrina.
Misty, hiding behind Ash, still watched Sabrina warily.
"Don't be so afraid, Xia."
"She turned us into tiny people before, you know."
"That won't happen anymore, and I'm here for you."
Hearing what Xiaozhi said, Xiaoxia still stared at Sabrina's indifferent face with some unease.
Ash, on the other hand, seemed quite relaxed, smiling as he said, "From now on, we'll all be friends!"
"Alright, let's release all the Pokémon that can be trained together."
Ash released all his Pokémon, Sabrina released Kadabra and Alakazam, while Misty ran alone because all of her Pokémon cannot move on land.
During the run, Ash would help correct Sabrina's running posture, but Misty seemed a little unhappy about Ash and Sabrina's interaction.
There's no way around it; Xiaoxia is already an expert at running with Xiaozhi and doesn't need his guidance.
"Naza doesn't use superpowers to help her train her muscles when she runs; that won't help her build muscle."
"it is good."
"Oh, there are some people jogging over there too, let's wave and say hello."
"……,good."
Naza maintained an icy expression throughout the run, but the ice showed signs of melting a little after she finished.
The three of them finished their morning run around the city center of Golden City in an eerie atmosphere.
After their morning run, Ash and Sabrina continued their usual "Conqueror's Haki Showdown" Aura training.
For a while after that, Ash took Sabrina and Misty for a morning run every day, and Misty gradually lowered her guard against Sabrina.
Xiao Zhi had his reasons for doing this.
Judging from the dojo's apprentices' loyalty to Sabrina and their proud expressions when talking about their superpowers.
Although Natsumi used to have episodes of illness, she also possessed a charismatic personality that made people want to follow her.
The way the apprentices behaved could not be achieved through mere physical coercion.
Sabrina's superpowers used to go berserk when she was a child, but they don't anymore. Her reluctance to leave the gym is more of a psychological issue.
Recently, Sabrina's "condition" has eased a bit because Ash, who isn't afraid of her psychic abilities, is with her, and she's been able to speak on her own.
If Ash leaves Saffron City, Sabrina might immediately revert to her original form.
So Ash takes her out every day to get some sunshine and run so that the citizens of Saffron City can see how Sabrina looks now.
Let Sabrina reintegrate into Goldenrod City, after all, her desire to make friends is so strong.
As for whether Sabrina will be accepted by the citizens of Goldenrod City, Ash isn't worried at all.
She possesses qualities that no otaku or otaku woman can achieve.
Naza is a beautiful girl with superpowers!
People are extremely forgiving of good-looking people; this damn world judges people by their appearance.
A cool and powerful ice queen who owns the mansion will surely become the most dazzling name card in Golden City.
Moreover, young girls might idolize Natsume, just like Misty idolizes Kona.
As expected, although the citizens were initially alarmed when they saw Nazja appear.
But after they saw Naz every day, they stopped running away whenever they encountered her.
If they run into people they're jogging with, Ash will wave and say hello together with Sabrina.
In fact, the people of Goldenrod City have always felt more fear than disgust towards Sabrina than towards the unknown.
After seeing that the legendary monster in the Goldenrod Gym was actually a beautiful girl, he quickly accepted her.
Even when Xiao Zhi goes for his morning run, a long line of people follows behind him.
Men, women, young and old all participate in the exercise.
It's almost become a cultural phenomenon in Golden City.
Upon seeing this scene, Nazi's father, who was mingling with the morning joggers, burst into tears, deeply moved.
Naza's daily outfits now include more stylish hair clips and sports collars given to her by Xiaozhi.
After all, Naz has always loved fashion, she just doesn't want to show it.
One morning during a run, several young girls came up to ask to take a photo with Naz.
Although Naz's expression remained cold, she was actually very happy inside.
It was evening again, the end of another day of training.
Sabrina suddenly spoke to Ash.
"Thank you for this past month, Satoshi."
[Ding! Sabrina: Affection +3]
Waving his hand dismissively, Ash said, "No need to thank me, after all, we're best friends."

[Trigger the Legendary Quest Series: Wild Ash March! (Part 3): Raise Sabrina's Affection to 30]

Naza's favorability rating has unknowingly reached 20.
"It's only been a month, and I feel like I've improved even faster than Xiaoxia." Xiaozhi thought he had only done some ordinary things.
[Ding! Congratulations on achieving the achievement: Scumbag: More than one girl has a preference level of over 20 for you!]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +500; Stamina +1; Free Attribute Points +2]
"What?! How am I a jerk? I don't even have a girlfriend, and in the Kanto region, there's no limit to the number of people a person can marry!"
Xiao Zhi was very dissatisfied with the system's evaluation.
"By the way, Sabrina, I'll be having another official gym challenge tomorrow."
Ash's Aura level has already reached level 7, and continuing to train like this will not improve his abilities much further; the effect is similar to that of regular daily Aura training.
"Okay." Sabrina looked a little disappointed because she knew that Ash would be leaving after the challenge.
Seeing her little expression, Xiao Zhi chuckled and stepped forward to pinch Sabrina's cheeks, saying...
"I'm just going to continue my travels, I'm not dead, I'll come back to see you often."
"You can't lie."
"certainly."
