The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

A sharp light flashed in Mumuxiao's eyes, and a powerful energy wave instantly burst out from his body.

He used the Z-power to create countless arrows on both sides of his body, and the nearby sky darkened due to the activation of the Z move.

Owloo spread his wings and swooped down towards Tapu Moo on the ground.

Each arrow carries a powerful ghost energy, and wherever it passes, the air seems to be torn apart.

These feather arrows flashed with a strange cold light, as if they came from an endless dark abyss.

They spun at an extremely fast speed, making a sharp whistling sound, cutting through the air and shooting towards Tapu Moo.

Tapu Moo was pinned down by Shadow Seam and unable to dodge, so he retreated into his shell to block the attack.

Dozens of arrows followed behind Mumu Owl. A second before hitting Tapu Moo, Mumu Owl quickly raised its flying altitude to avoid a collision.

But the dozens of arrows behind him all hit Tapu Moomo accurately.

In an instant, feather arrows rained down on Tapu Moomoo.

The sound of "bang bang bang" was endless, and all the arrows were stuck in Tapu Moo's shell, densely packed, turning it from a cow into a hedgehog.

The powerful impact caused Tapu Moo's body to tremble continuously, and clouds of dust were raised around it. Even the entire Harvest Ruins seemed to be shaking slightly in this fierce attack.

"Well done, Owl, our Z-Move worked!"

"Boooooo~!"

Ash and Rowlet hugged each other excitedly, and Tapu Moo also appeared from the smoke and dust, clapping and cheering with its two hooves.

A lot of oranges grew on the tree that Tapu Moo Moo had just planted. Everyone had one and ate them with great joy.

"It seems that Tapu Moo has recognized the strength of Rowlet." said Acerola.

"Thank you, Tapu Moo, thank you for accompanying us in special training." Xiaozhi said.

"Kapu!"

After eating the Orange Fruit, Tapu Moo responded to Ash, then found a piece of grass and went to sleep.

This trip to the Harvest Ruins was a fruitful one.

After saying goodbye to Tapu Moo, Ash and Acerola returned to the Marie Library.

We wanted to go find Uncle Merdan together, but it was already late, and there were two children holding a picture book, clamoring for Acerola to tell them a story.

Xiaozhi decided to wait until the next morning to look for Merdan.

The two children, a boy and a girl, named Pique and Nene, were actually taken care of by Acerola, and Acerola was taken care of by Merdan. This is really a complicated relationship.

The two children held a storybook picture book with a picture of Gengar on the cover and asked Acerola to read it to them.

Aserola did this job herself and loved it very much, so she began to tell them stories. Xiaozhi also moved a stool and sat next to her out of curiosity to listen.

"A long time ago, in the forest on an island, there lived a monster that everyone hated.

It has a very bad temper and its favorite thing to do is to scare others.

And because it is very greedy, it often steals other people's favorite things and takes them for itself. The residents of the island call this monster "Greedy Lapu", and everyone is afraid of it.

……

Thus, Greedy Lapu was sealed away by the power of the island king, and peace returned to the island. The story ends here."

Judging from the cover, the Greedy Lapu recorded in the book should be a Gengar, and the one who sealed it is not known whether it was Merdan or the previous king of the island before Merdan.

After Acerola finished reading the story, Pico admired the island king in the story, but Nene said she didn't like the story because she hated bad-tempered ghosts and thought the cemetery where Greedy Rapp was sealed was a little scary.

Acerola comforted Nene and told her that it wouldn't be scary if she just thought of it as a fairy tale.

And Pique on the side even suggested going to Greedy Lap's grave immediately to find out what happened.

Xiaozhi asked Acerola to take the two children to see it, and he planned to go look for Uncle Merdan.

As a result, after arriving there, the two children accidentally broke the seal and released Greedy Lapu.

After witnessing this scene, they were convinced that Greedy Lapp was not just a character in fairy tales, but a real person.

Aserola and the other three were about to flee upon seeing this, but Greedy Rapp noticed them, flew in front of them, and stopped them.

Pique and Nene hugged each other tightly in fear.

Acerola bravely stood in front of the two children to protect them and scolded the greedy Rapp.

Unexpectedly, it actually kidnapped Acerola.

Little Mimi also chased after him in order to save Acerola.

Pico and Nene decided to ask for help from Merdan, the king of the island.

Greedy Lapu flew over Ula'ula Island with Acerola, stealing food and jewelry from Pokémon and residents along the way.

For example, he scared a Salamander, stole the uncle's gold bead, picked up the curved spoon by Murkrow, the egg of Jigglypuff, the fruit of the old man dragon, the Z pure crystal of an unknown trainer, etc.

These actions were once again rebuked by Acerola.

Afterwards, it fought with the little Mimikyu that caught up with it, but the little Mimikyu's shadow claws had no effect on it at all. It grabbed the little Mimikyu and planned to throw it down.

Acerola accidentally fell off it in order to save the little Mimikyu. Greedy Rapp, contrary to his usual behavior, rushed down to catch Acerola with a panicked look on his face.

But Acerola accidentally slipped off it again while holding the little Mimikyu and fell into the forest.

It felt deeply guilty about this and could only hide behind a big tree and watch Aserola secretly.

After getting up, Acero asked about Mimikyu's condition and noticed it. She found that it was slightly different from the description in the picture book and comforted it to tell it that it was doing well.

Seeing that Acerola was fine, it jumped for joy.

Acerola told it that it was time to go back.

The lost and greedy Lapu took out the big golden bead he had taken before and wanted to give it to Aserola in order to keep her.

Seeing that Acerola was unmoved, it took out a bunch of fruits and wanted to give them to her.

But Aserola still said that she could not go with it, because for Aserola, the job of librarian and reading picture books to children was the most important treasure.

Rejected, it began to howl and make a scene in the forest.

The greedy and humiliated Lapu even tried to force Aserola into his body regardless of her wishes.

At this moment, Xiaozhi and Merdan, who received the news, arrived in time.
