Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 923, Odomare

Day 222 since leaving the Orange Islands, cloudy.

More than two months have passed since we set sail from the Chengdu area...

The sky was a deep, jewel-like blue, with many fluffy, white clouds drifting lazily by...

In the morning, the warm sunshine bathed this tranquil seaside town, and the waves gently lapped against the shore, making a rhythmic sound.

After setting sail, Yu Hai and A Long arrived at this dreamlike floating city, located in the open sea south of the peninsula where Hinoki Town is located. The city is called Odomare and is known as "the most beautiful city in the world".

He has been staying here for more than a month. The reason he has not left and embarked on his journey to the Hoenn continent is because the story of a certain movie has come to mind.

Latias and Latios, the Guardians of the Water City

The story of this theatrical version takes place in the water city of Odomarre, and involves two legendary Infinite Spirits. He felt that there was great potential here, so he chose to stay and perhaps get some good stuff.

Of course, things were far from as simple as they seemed. He had no intention of getting his hands on the Heart Drop, a legendary dragon-type item whose design was very similar to Ho-Oh's Rainbow Feather.

"When a person with impure intentions uses the Heart's Water Drop, their mind will pollute the Heart's Water Drop, causing them to lose it, and even this water city will disappear along with it..."

This is the legend of the Heart Drop and the two Infinite Spirits. These seemingly plausible and idealistic legends are hard to completely disbelieve, since he had once come into contact with the Rainbow Feather and knew that these legends were not unfounded.

So he settled in the water city of Odomare, where he spent his days either training Pokémon or sitting by the sea with a fishing rod, quietly waiting for fish to bite.

He passed the time this way, silently waiting for that moment to arrive, and what he was waiting for was, of course,...

……

"The much-anticipated Odomare Summer Carnival water sports competition is about to begin! Who will win the glorious Odomare trophy and medal? Stay tuned..."

The passionate voice of the on-site host echoed through the city...

"3, 2, 1... The game begins!"

At the referee's whistle, the entire Water City erupted in excitement, everyone staring at the trainers speeding through the river.

Crackle, clackle——

Suddenly, I heard the sound of rushing water, and saw a torrent of water surging up in front of me. The once calm riverbed was now filled with splashing water like high waves, which splashed and splattered onto the riverbank.

Yu Hai was focused on fishing, but he was not spared. He was soaked by the splashes of water stirred up by the trainers who were enthusiastic about water competitions. Water droplets dripped from his hair, and his clothes clung tightly to his body, making him look extremely disheveled.

He immediately turned red with anger and couldn't help but curse, "Can't you guys even let people fish?! Can't you be a little more careful?!"

Although he was cursing fiercely, his tense face finally relaxed when he saw Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia speeding past, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.

"They've finally arrived," the key figure Yu Hai had been waiting for had finally appeared.

This theatrical version is very short, starting with Ash and his friends participating in a water competition and ending in the early hours of the next day.

Based on this calculation, the two female thieves who stole the Heart Drops must have already arrived in this beautiful water city. His gaze swept back and forth among the surrounding crowd, but he had not yet spotted the two female thieves.

However, he wasn't in a hurry. He had already scouted out the most crucial building in Odomare, the Sanctuary. These two female thieves were key characters in the movie, so it was impossible for them not to appear.

He had already devised a plan in his mind. If it weren't for the two female thieves causing trouble and creating chaos in Odomare, how would he have found an opportunity to gain Latios's friendship?

Thinking of this, Yu Hai couldn't help but chuckle to himself. Darkrai Garatheoth, let's see who dares to say he's not a legendary Pokémon trainer. He's a genuine legendary Pokémon trainer.

Looking at the empty bucket, he shook his head helplessly, quickly packed up his fishing gear, picked up a towel to wipe the water off his body, and carrying the empty bucket, left the shore and headed towards the hotel.

That's right, he failed again. Laugh if you want!

However, as a seasoned angler, a true angler never goes home empty-handed; an empty-handed angler is not a true angler.

He didn't catch any fish this time, but he didn't just want a drink of water; he wanted to get the most precious thing here.

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

A crisp knock sounded outside the hotel room door. Ah Long raised his hand and gently knocked on Yu Hai's door, raising his voice to ask, "Boss, are we going out for lunch? Or should the hotel deliver it?"

At this moment, Yu Hai was changing clothes in his room. The faint sounds of clothes rubbing together and the spinning of the washing machine could be heard from inside.

"Let's go out to eat. I have something to ask you to do." Yu Hai replied to A Long while quickly tidying his clothes. A moment later, the door opened, and he and A Long walked towards the open-air restaurant on the street.

The streets were bustling with activity, and the water sports competition seemed to be ongoing. The warm sunshine bathed every corner, and a gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness.

There were still some empty seats in the open-air restaurant, and people were laughing, talking quietly, and clinking glasses, making it sound a bit chaotic.

Only then did Yu Hai see on television that the intense water competition had already ended.

People in the restaurant were gathered around the television, watching the follow-up reports of the event with great interest.

On the screen, Xiaoxia held the championship trophy in her hands, her face beaming with a bright smile. He and Along saw Xiaoxia's moment of glory on the restaurant's television.

As the waiter came to take their orders, he and Ah Long each ordered a noodle dish. While waiting for the food to be served, he ate his lunch at a leisurely pace, holding his cutlery.

Without realizing it, his eyes glanced out of the corner of his eye toward the riverbank, where small boats occasionally passed by.

However, at that moment, his gaze suddenly froze, and he saw two women on the speedboat in the river.

The two women were dressed in extremely fashionable, form-fitting clothes that perfectly showcased their hot figures. They wore sophisticated sunglasses that covered most of their faces, and their hair was dyed in various colors, making them particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.

A sudden tremor ran through him; the two female thieves he was waiting for had arrived, and almost all the key figures were present.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, averted his gaze from the two of them, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Next, Odomare will serve the main course...
