Reborn in Pokémon, my background is super hard

On the way out of Rota City, a red sports car was driving at a leisurely speed.

There were four people sitting in the car, but it seemed like they were in two different worlds.

Xiaomao and Xiaoming, who were sitting in the driver's seat and the co-pilot's seat, were full of energy and had smiles on their faces.

Wutong and Shinji, who were sitting in the back seat, looked obviously disheveled and tired.

Shinji's already gloomy face now looked even more frightening, of course, not because he was angry but because he was tired.

"I will never practice with you again." Shinji said to Wutong in a hoarse voice.

"Oh, you'll get used to this kind of thing." Although Wutong was not in good condition, he had long been accustomed to this kind of high-intensity training and could still act as usual.

After hearing the conversation between Wutong and Shinji, Xiaomao and Xiaoming laughed unscrupulously.

After all, during the two days that Wutong and Shinji were training with Lucario, Xiaomao and Xiaoming were the ones who watched the whole process.

The way Lucario led them to practice was to simply challenge the limits of the human mind. Although it was life-threatening, it successfully allowed Wutong and Shinji to learn how to control the power of waves.

However, Wutong's wave force is indeed very strange to control, and is in a state of superposition of stability and instability.

It was clearly fluctuating and changing, but there was no sign of it getting out of control.

Lucario, who had no experience in this situation, could only warn Wutong to be careful when using the power of waves in the future.

After learning how to control the power of waves, Wutong and Shinji are ready to continue challenging the remaining battle areas.

Lucario didn't stop him. After all, as long as he learned to control the power of waves, the other various uses only required diligent practice.

Wutong and Shinji also received a booklet containing tips on how to use the power of waves.

These include the use of abilities such as mind reading, waveguide detection, waveguide projection, and recording the flower of time.

I just don't know if Wutong can also make a hand-rubbed wave missile in the future and officially transform into a humanoid Pokémon.

"We should go to Vermilion City next, right? Vermilion Gym has always been very responsible, so we shouldn't need a disguise test this time, right?" Xiao Ming said, holding a map.

However, Xiao Ming's inquiry did not receive a response, and suddenly, a bad premonition came to Xiao Ming's heart.

I saw Wutong and Shinji sticking their heads out from the back seat and staring at Xiao Ming. Although Xiao Mao was driving, the expression on his face also showed his attitude.

"Well, is this really unnecessary? I obviously don't need to appear on stage." Xiao Ming still wanted to try a final struggle.

"Stop dreaming." Shinji decisively shattered Xiao Ming's fantasy.

"Don't worry, I will let Mingming make a beautiful appearance." Wutong followed.

Arriving at Vermilion City, Xiao Ming, who had transformed into Mingming, walked towards the Vermilion Gym.

This time, Wutong and the other two did not choose to follow and observe secretly. After all, the Withered Leaf Gym is one of the few competent gyms in the Kanto region.

Although Ma Zhishi fights very fiercely, he has always fulfilled his duties as a gym leader.

This time, all we need to see is whether Ma Zhishi will show mercy depending on the challenger.

Wutong and the other two who were waiting for Xiao Ming's return came to the beach near the port of Kuye City. They set up the beach chairs and waited while basking in the sun.

However, the three of them didn't have to wait long before Xiao Ming, who had returned to his original appearance, came back.

"Why so fast?" Wutong asked in surprise when he saw Xiao Ming.

"You didn't dare to go in, did you?" Xiao Mao also questioned.

"Cowardly Lizard?" Shinji gave Xiao Ming the title.

"Hey, you three, don't frame me. I went to the Dead Leaf Gym, but the one who accepted the challenge was not Ma Zhishi, but a... a very manly woman." Xiao Ming said, remembering the appearance of Bisquisi.

"Oh, Xiaokui, it seems that Instructor Ma Zhishi is out for training. Usually when he is out for training, he will let Biskuisi serve as the acting gym leader." Wutong said.

"Going out to practice? Ma Zhishi is indeed a reliable and good gym owner." Xiao Mao sighed.

"Are you sure that Ma Zhishi is out practicing?" Shinji suddenly asked.

"Ah? Generally speaking, Instructor Ma Zhishi goes out to practice, but if you insist on me confirming it, I can't guarantee it." Wutong replied in confusion.

"So, the unidentified object floating over there is most likely Ma Zhishi, right?" Shinji said, pointing in the direction of the sea.

“!!??” x3 Wutong and the other two immediately looked in the direction Shinji pointed.

I saw a burly man in a familiar military uniform and a golden hedgehog hair floating face down on the sea, drifting towards the shore with the waves.

Several people rushed over and worked together to pull Ma Zhishi out of the sea.

"Old Ma! Old Ma!" Wutong shook Ma Zhishi's body trying to wake him up.

As the Wutong tree shook vigorously, Ma Zhishi slowly opened his eyes.

"Stop shaking!" Ma Zhishi said painfully.

"Old Ma! Cough, that's not right, Instructor Ma Zhishi, what happened to you? Did someone frame you? I understand. It must be Xiaokui who wanted to seize the position of the leader of the Dead Leaf Gym, so he threw your body into the sea!" Wutong said when he saw Ma Zhishi waking up.

"You are still the same as always. You think about weird things every day." Ma Zhishi sat up and shook his head.

"What happened? How did you float up from the sea?" Xiao Mao asked.

"Oh, nothing, I've just been researching how to modify submarines recently." Ma Zhishi said calmly.

"Submarine? Where's the submarine?" Xiao Ming looked left and right but couldn't find any trace of the so-called submarine.

"Boy~ You have to understand that life is never smooth sailing. The same goes for submarines, there will always be headwinds." Ma Zhishi said deeply, gazing into the distance.

"If it sinks, it sinks. Besides, where does the sail come from on a submarine?" Shinji complained mercilessly.

"Hahaha, nice sarcasm, boy~" Ma Zhishi said nonchalantly.

"Hahahaha, you are worthy of being Instructor Ma Zhishi. Your words are always full of philosophy." Wutong said flatteringly.

"Hahahahaha~!" x2 Wutong and Ma Zhishi both laughed heartily.

(ー ー゛)(ー ー゛)(ー ー゛)

Shinji and the other two didn't understand what Wutong and Ma Zhishi were talking about.

"By the way, Wutong, since you are here, please do me a favor." Ma Zhishi suddenly remembered something and said.

"Instructor Ma Zhishi, I can't ask you to salvage a submarine." Wutong said decisively.

"Salvaging submarines is also good, but I hope you can be a special judge." Ma Zhishi made an unexpected commission.
