Chapter 27 Beginner's Guide
2:40 PM.
Jiwa City Dojo.
Gui Hai had two long swords hanging from his waist.
It carries an incubator with two elf eggs on its back.
A mask was hanging on one shoulder.
A Mimikyu was perched on the other shoulder.
Step into the dojo, which appears deserted due to the clearing out.
Following the signs, Gui Hai passed through the hall and corridors and arrived at the only brightly lit battlefield.
Behind him, the dojo gate closed and locked.
Shi Lei sat cross-legged in the center of the field, seemingly having been waiting for a long time.
Several young people and uniformed staff members sat in the spectator seats.
Upon seeing someone arrive, the people stopped their hushed conversation and stared wide-eyed at the newcomer.
Then everyone frowned.
Guihai is far too young.
It's obvious that they're the kind of people who have just been able to register as trainers.
No one really believed that Guihai was the Elite Four level trainer the gym leader had mentioned.
The audience members were quiet for a moment, then immediately began to whisper among themselves.
One of the staff members who was closer to the entrance saw that Gui Hai was so young and overheard Shi Lei's apprentices' discussion, he also thought that Gui Hai was a trainer who had accidentally wandered in.
They were about to get up and drive him away.
However, Shi Lei, who was in the field, opened his half-closed eyes the moment Gui Hai entered, although he was surprised by Gui Hai's age.
However, as fellow Elite Four level trainers, Shi Lei knew at first glance that Gui Hai was his opponent for the day.
"You've arrived."
Shi Lei's voice interrupted the staff member who was about to speak to drive away the ghost sea, and at the same time drew everyone's attention to him.
Shi Lei was dressed in a gray tracksuit.
With his eyes fixed intently on Guihai, he slowly rose from the ground, and everyone felt a heavy aura emanating from him, a feeling only a Rock Pokémon could possess.
At this moment, whether it was the disciples whom Shi Lei had called to broaden their horizons or the staff who stayed here to learn, they were all speechless.
It was as if a giant boulder was pressing down on them, suppressing everything they had.
This includes the ability to speak.
Only Gui Hai, who had just entered the arena, felt no pressure. He stepped forward and stood not far from Shi Lei.
"Hello, Gym Leader Shi Lei, I am Gui Hai, a trainer from the Tower of the Other Shore. I have come to ask for your guidance."
Shi Lei's gaze swept over the shadow at Gui Hai's feet. He sensed a strong threat there, and his wrinkled face became serious.
"I wouldn't dare say that, I'm really looking forward to this match."
Oni-kai touched the cryptid Q on his shoulder:
"Gym Leader, I only have three Pokémon that are level 80 or higher. How about we have a 3v3 this time?"
Shi Lei's eyes flashed. He couldn't find any information about Guihai's Pokémon in the League, only that the other party was a League Inspector.
He originally wanted to say it was a 3v3 match against Guihai.
Unexpectedly, Gui Hai brought it up first, and it suited his taste perfectly, so naturally he wouldn't object.
"No problem, Prosecutor. Shall we begin now?"
Shi Lei was already itching to get started.
Gui Hai shook his head at Shi Lei:
"No rush, there is one more thing I would like to ask Master Shi to do."
Although Shi Lei was looking forward to the match, he was patient and listened to what Gui Hai had to say.
Guihai took the scabbard off his waist.
"I recently trained a new Pokémon, and this is a rare opportunity to battle. I'd like to use this Pokémon to ask you for some pointers."
The scabbard in Guihai's hand floated up, the blade emitting a metallic scraping sound, looking full of fighting spirit.
Upon hearing this, Shi Lei also turned his attention to the single sword sheath.
Looking at the luster on the single sword sheath and the surging fighting spirit.
Shi Lei nodded slightly, comparing it in his mind to the giant rock snake he had just bred.
It soon became apparent that the boy he had trained was not as good as the one in front of him, who looked like he had just come of age.
"Is that alright, Master Shi?"
Seeing that Shi Lei didn't respond, Gui Hai asked another question.
Shi Lei snapped out of his daze and became a little interested.
I want to see which Pokémon is stronger, the one I raised or the one this kid raised.
"Alright, I'll show you the Pokémon I've bred."
"Come out, Onix."
As he spoke, Shi Lei took a red and white Poké Ball from his belt and threw it out.
A red light flashed.
A giant Onix, seven or eight meters long, emerged from the Poké Ball and coiled around Shi Lei's feet, its face covered by a huge rock mask.
Guihai looked at the giant rock snake with a puzzled expression, wondering why he felt like he had seen it somewhere before.
At this moment, Onix also saw Oni-kai.
Its huge eyes trembled slightly as it reached for the Poké Ball in Shi Lei's hand.
"Roar. (I'm not fighting anymore, let me go back now, I don't want to fight that guy.)"
Unfortunately, Shi Lei hasn't been raising this Onix for very long, so he doesn't yet understand what an Onix is.
He put away the Poké Ball and ripped off the rock mask from Onix's face.
"Okay, I'll keep this for you for now. If you win, I'll buy you your favorite mineral."
Onix watched in despair as Shi Lei put away the Poké Ball that carried it, and the mask on its face was removed once again.
He could only turn his head shakily to look at Guihai and the Pokémon beside him.
When Guihai saw the Onix mask, he seemed to realize something and narrowed his eyes.
Wasn't there a giant rock snake that tried to scare me this morning? Could this be the one?
His squinting gesture was seen by the Onix, reminding it of the terrifying shadow it had felt from that human.
At this moment, Onix truly regretted its playfulness and the fact that it had provoked someone it shouldn't have.
Seeing that Onix was not moving, Shi Lei shouted, "Onix, go! Say hello to your opponent!"
Guihai glanced at the giant serpent made of rocks, patted the ribbon on the scabbard, and gestured for it to enter the fray.
The giant onyx glanced at the Ghost Sea, then at the Lone Sword Sheath, and reluctantly headed towards the battle zone in the center of the battlefield.
Fortunately, his opponent was just a seemingly weak piece of metal.
Shouldn't it be enough to confront that terrifying human and those dangerous guys around it?
"Let's begin, you devilish prosecutor."
Gui Hai looked at the Onix that showed little fighting spirit and wanted to remind Shi Lei that there was no point in doing so.
However, Shi Lei has already activated the battle barrier.
At the same time, the staff standing in the referee's position blew the whistle to indicate that the match had begun.
"Orochi, rockfall."
The giant rock serpent, somewhat terrified of the Ghost Sea, lashed out with its tail, whipping up a rock and throwing it at the sword sheath.
The movements were skillful, as if they had practiced countless times.
At the same time, as the battle began, Shi Lei's somewhat quirky big rock seemed to suddenly transform into a snake.
It becomes serious and focused, as if the creature that was just afraid and mischievous wasn't it at all.
Guihai looked at the snake with surprise and said to Dujianshe, "Split the rock, then return like a swallow."
With a whoosh, the longsword was drawn from its sheath, shattering the rock thrown by the giant onion with a single strike. It quickly approached the giant onion and swung its blade at the top of its head.
The sword sliced through the giant rock snake's body, leaving a deep gash.
