Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

It was the first time they met Puna. They didn't know her before, let alone being familiar with her.

What's more, Lurina is their teammate... As Puna's roadblock, the two obviously don't get along. Judging from some rumors, it seems that there is a lot of conflict, comparable to the brotherly rivalry between Maru and Magua.

"Um...can I ask some questions?" Puna smiled, her eyes curved into two crescents, and her pretty face looked full of energy.

Wang Jin picked up another piece of trout and put it in his mouth. Although the trout had no taste, it was good enough to kill time.

He glanced around with the corner of his eye. The diners in the restaurant had stopped eating at some point and turned to look here.

Including the tall and thin waiter and the slightly fat restaurant owner.

Wang Jin frowned slightly and followed the diners' gaze to look at Puna beside him.

The diners were all looking at Puna, as if she were... a servant waiting for some orders.

Puna also lowered her head slightly and looked into Wang Jin's eyes. She hooked her hands behind her back, leaned forward slightly and asked:

"Is it contestant Wang Jin?"

"Ah."

Wang Jin nodded casually.

These people and residents within sight should all be from the Shuizhou Gym...being pulled out to serve as temporary residents?

But these people are very familiar with their daily life, they must have lived here for a long time. That's right, the residents of this town are all from the Shuizhou Dojo, there is no conflict.

It is precisely because they are members of the Shuizhou Dojo that they can live in the town.

But it is still ridiculous to rely on these ordinary people, who don't even have a few gym leader-level Pokémon, to intimidate the top and champion-level trainers at this table.

Granny Sha and Old Man Ruby acted as if these people didn't exist, and Maru and Onio didn't feel anything either.

Only Ryan's staff who were resting at the back table were so frightened by the strange scene that they could only focus on eating. They were afraid of becoming collateral victims of the conflict.

Puna still had a smile on her face and asked in a sweet voice:

"Brother Jin, do you know Lulina?"

"puff!"

As soon as he heard the voice and the name, Maru couldn't help but spit the crab meat in his mouth onto the ground beside him. He coughed twice, held back his laughter, and looked at Wang Jin.

Maru slapped the table twice, half covered his mouth and laughed intermittently:

"Jin...Jin brother...Brother~my Jin brother, hahaha..."

He laughed heartily, causing Granny Sha beside him to hit his calf hard with the bottom of her walking stick.

After Maru took a deep breath, his expression suddenly changed and he covered his calf and shivered.

I hit a bone! It hurts so much!

Seeing this, Puna, who had put away her smile, relaxed her brows a little. No matter what she did, no one dared to laugh at her face.

That Maru is so hideous.

The disgust on Puna's face was clear.

Wang Jinze's expression remained unchanged. He took the opportunity to pick up more slices of croaker and drink sweet bamboo juice.

Maru came to his rescue, and he no longer needed to put on a cold face and act like a villain.

At this time, Granny Sha, who had hit Maru, shouted impatiently at Puna, "Where did you come from, little girl? Get out of here!"

Puan, who had just thought of the question, was stunned for a moment, his expression changed from confusion to shock and anger. The three trainers of the Shuizhou Gym behind him also took a few steps forward and surrounded the table.

"What a blind bunch of people..." Old man Ruby sighed and raised his right hand.

Instantly, everyone, including the diners in the restaurant, felt a strange and cold aura, as if a ghost was wandering around...

In Wang Jin's eyes, which were flashing with subtle superpowers, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the shadow under old man Ruby's feet when he raised his hand, and quickly moved around, emitting a barely perceptible ghostly aura.

This is a Gengar, and his strength is at the champion level.

Gengar finally stopped behind Puna, and the little girl's face turned visibly pale, her eyes lost in confusion. She seemed to have seen something terrible, and her body stepped back involuntarily.

In a few breaths, Puna ran away panting with fear on her face, leaving the three men around her very puzzled and they hurried to follow.

Seeing this, the diners in the restaurant seemed to realize something. They turned back and stopped chatting as before.

"They came here specifically to see you, Wang Jin." Grandma Sha lowered her eyelids and said coldly.

"Um...thanks for your help."

Wang Jin replied.

"It was Olivia... She sent out a notice to all the gyms not long ago," Ruby explained, picking up her chopsticks and stirring in a dish of hot food. She added, "The purpose is to make the gyms hinder you in the challenge. I think they reached some kind of deal with the Mizufune Gym."

Wang Jin nodded and said:

"For example... after successfully intercepting me, can you allow the Shuizhou Gym to have another successor? Let that Puna continue to be the Shuizhou Gym Master?"

"That's right." Ruby nodded. "Up to now, the group's gym reform plan has been basically completed, thanks to you, Wang Jin. The remaining gyms... like Wuzi Town, Caolu Town, etc., are all considering self-protection. Shuizhou Town is no exception."

"It's time to get rid of it~" Wang Jin said casually.

"Brother Jin!" Malu couldn't help but speak out, "What on earth did you take? The group is..."

Before he could finish his words, Granny Sha looked at him and made him swallow the rest.

"Took something..."

Wang Jin paused as he looked at Malu's puzzled and anxious gaze, as well as Onio's raised mask.

Maru and Onio were both very curious, or rather, strange.

It was fine before, but just a few days after the gym tour, the group and many gyms seemed to be deliberately targeting Wang Jin... and have been making things difficult for him.

The group even searched Maru twice, even the Pokémon in the Poké Ball were not exempted. Even the fluff of the snow moth had to be combed back and forth twice.

When Malu asked what the reason was, the people from the group didn't say a word. They just went through the routine work and left after the search.

Granny Sha didn't explain anything to him. It was only two days ago that he found out that Wang Jin seemed to have taken something and was being pursued by the group.

"Get the things..." Wang Jin muttered again.

What did you take?

Does he have to hand over the sword, shield and unknown totem that he obtained at the risk of his life to the group?

Because the group needs it?

What kind of logic is this?

Even if Olivia asked frankly and asked to borrow the sword and shield for a few days to study, Wang Jin would consider agreeing to her request.

Damn it, they have to search and rob...

However, now that things have come to this, facing the gazes of Maru and Onio, Wang Jin no longer wants to hide anything and said directly:

"It's the weapon of the Sword and Shield Hero."
