Chapter 480: Slowmon’s past, and... ． ． That flash of light

"how so!

It's all...all my fault...

If I didn't come in, Slowpoke wouldn't..."

In a strange and bright cave, water flowed slowly, and Qingzi, who understood everything, was sitting on the ground.

(Nothing, if it weren’t for you, even if it has certain qualifications, it would not be able to make up its mind so quickly.)

In front of Aoko, a Slowmon stood up, with his hands behind his back and a crown-like shell on his head, and shook his head.

The strange thing is that this Slowpoke did not speak, and unlike the dull expressions of other Slowpoke, its eyes were full of agility. If it looked at it, it would be like seeing the endless blue sea.

The Pokémon in front of me that resembles Slowpoke should not be said to be a Slowpoke, but the king of the Slowpoke clan, King Slowpoke, who is known as the Sage of the Sea.

"But... now because of me... Slowpoke has..."

Qingzi turned his head and looked at a Slowshell beast that still stood there with a dull look in its eyes, and a threaded shell biting its tail.

That is the most common evolved form of Slowpoke.

You must know that this Slowpoke is clearly the smartest among their tribe according to the Slowking King in front of them, and it has the possibility of taking over as the next Slowking King.

But...everything was ruined because of her actions.

(It does this voluntarily.

It can be regarded as a response to your kindness towards it. )

King Slow looked at the standing Slowshell Beast and turned his head again. Qingzi understood what it said even though he didn't open his mouth at all.

This is an ability that only the top psychic Pokémon can master, telepathy.

"But..."

patter

Qingzi was about to say something, but suddenly he felt his head sinking, and he was greeted by the dull eyes of Slowshell Beast.

Obviously the dumb beast didn't say anything, but Aoko seemed to have understood its meaning.

It doesn't matter, that's okay too.

"Slowpoke?"

Looking at the stupid Slowmon in front of him, Aoko called out Slowmon's name.

"....so many."

"You...don't blame me? If I had noticed what you meant before..."

"Yaduo."

Slowpoke shook his head to show that he didn't care.

However, this behavior made Qingzi feel even more guilty. The arm holding the Slowpoke did not let go, but his eyes looked pleadingly at the Slowpoke King next to him.

"Is there really... no way out?

This is obviously its dream. "

But this glimmer of hope for Qingzi was once again wiped out when King Slow shook his head.

(This is its choice, and if it really has the qualifications to become a king, it will have succeeded before you came.

Although things have come to this, it finally took this step, even if it failed. )

"Obviously...obviously it was to protect me.

If it weren't for me, Slowpoke would have passed the trial, is that really not possible? "

(Although it is called the succession ceremony of the king, according to you humans, this is the evolution of our stupid family in a different direction.

Have you ever heard that an evolved Pokémon can be transformed back? )

King Dudu shook his head again.

And Qingzi's heart sank a little bit as Slow King shook his head, and he hugged the Slow Beast even tighter with his arms.

After an unknown amount of time passed, the scene suddenly fell into silence. Aoko's voice, as if she had made up her mind, echoed in the cave.

After an unknown amount of time, King Slow looked around at Qingzi and Slutmon and nodded, his voice resounding in Qingzi's heart again.

(But looking at you, it’s not like there’s no other hope.)

"What! Can Slowpoke still become Slow King?!"

As if the extinguished flame was ignited again, Qingzi raised his head again.

(No, but still.)

King Daidai replied with something incomprehensible, and then asked another question.

(Before that I want to know, are you two sure you want to be each other's partners?)

But Aoko was stunned after saying this and looked at Slowmon.

Although all he got in exchange was a gentle word from Slowmon, Aoko seemed to have understood what Slowmon was thinking. He wiped the water marks from the corners of his eyes and nodded fiercely.

"Ok!"

But after that, Aoko's slightly confused voice sounded again.

"So, you want me to raise Slowpoke to the level of King Slowpoke and become the king with the power of Slowpoke?!"

This was Aoko's first subconscious thought.

But what followed was King Slow's shaking of his head.

I saw King Dude turn around, and the gem in the center of the crown on his head shined with a ray of red light and shot into the stone pillar where the king's certificate was placed.

Suddenly, in the middle of the stone pillar, the eyes of a Slowshell beast carved at the highest point suddenly sunk in. Then the two strange pearls that replaced the Slowshell beast's eyes flew down lightly, and one floated into Qingzi's hand. , one floated in front of the Slug Beast.

"This is?"

Looking at the strange pearl in front of him, Qingzi had a puzzled expression on his face.

(In the legend of our Daidai clan, although I, King Daidai, represent the highest wisdom among the Daidai clan, in fact, the strongest power may not be the same.

In addition to passing the King's Trial, there is another legend.

That's...another legend about a king who transcends the limits of our clan...)

.....

"Really...what does King Dude mean by that..."

At dusk, after bidding farewell to the island, Qingzi's mind was a blur, but he quickly shook his head as if to shake off the riddle in his mind and cheer up.

"But no matter what, at least it gave me hope for another Slowpoke.

Anyway... Slowpoke, please give me your advice in the future! "

"...Yaduo."

On the coast, a dull figure and a beautiful girl set off again in the sea breeze and the gradually falling dusk.

On the girl's hair, a hairpin made of beads shone in the sunlight.

It seems that you can vaguely see the different colors inside one of the pearls.

......

"Slowshell, Emperor Nabo..."

On the final stage of the gorgeous large-scale celebration, looking at Hanayidi and Fairy Eevee who were about to attack, Aoko somehow recalled the scenes of her encounter with them.

At this moment, the beads on Qingzi's head that were used as hairpins suddenly emitted a dazzling light.

In contrast, the threaded shell at the tail of the Slowshell seemed to be echoing with it. Under its constant struggle, a pearl that also exuded a shining light came out and floated in front of the Slowshell.

While many viewers and even Qing Zi, who was the source, were still confused, Lin Jing's eyes widened when she saw this familiar yet unfamiliar scene, and she couldn't help but utter a curse word that was completely inconsistent with the image.

"Fuck! That's it!!!"
