Everyone else is a trainer, but you are a swordsman?

“Ma…Ma…”

Malanla covered his head with his paws, tears appeared in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth drooped, without any trace of his previous arrogance.

Haha, if you don’t punish him for three days, he will start to tear off the tiles on the roof.

Feng retracted his fist, looked down at it condescendingly, and said in a playful tone: "Malanla, are you awake?"

No wonder the trainer’s level must match the Pokémon. With a Pokémon as naughty as Magma, ordinary trainers would be fooled around by it.

But Feng is naturally different. With his absolute strength, Malanla can't make any waves at all.

If Feng had a rebellious Pokémon like Ash and Charizard, he would have the confidence to beat it into submission and make it obedient. This is the charm of a trainer.

"Ma-chan~"

Malanla nodded obediently, Chongfeng stuck out his tongue and smiled like a "good student".

After showing Ma Xiula his family status, Feng nodded with satisfaction and planned to continue training in other items.

"Cotton~"

At this moment, the kapok ball in his arms let out a soft cry. It was woken up by Feng's punch just now.

“Cotton… Cotton?”

Kapok Ball's eyes first showed a confused look of just waking up, and then he suddenly felt something was wrong with his body. Why did he feel... cold all over.

The cotton in the kapok ball naturally has the function of keeping warm, like a cotton coat or cotton hat. Without the cotton, it is like not wearing any clothes.

"Kapok Ball, you're awake."

Feng looked at it with a smile, his eyes were very gentle, as if he was looking at a baby.

"puff."

An inopportune voice came, attracting the attention of Feng and Kapok Ball.

Malanla covered his mouth suddenly, but his trembling body still betrayed him.

"cotton!"

The kapok ball realized something and controlled the leaves to stroke its body up and down, but it touched nothing.

"Boom!"

Kapok Ball's expression froze, and it was as if a bolt of lightning appeared in its mind, causing its eyes to gradually become dull, and it became like a stone sculpture, no... a stone ball.

Gone, all gone...

This was the only sentence left in Kapok Ball's mind.

"Pfft...Ma, Ma!"

Ma'la couldn't hold it back any longer, and burst into laughter, squatting down and pounding the ground.

“Cotton… Cotton!”

The Kapok Ball was about to get angry, but suddenly remembered that he couldn't beat it. He suddenly felt wronged and burst into tears.

"Don't be sad, Kapok Ball, it will grow back." Feng gently stroked Kapok Ball's "boiled egg" head and comforted him, "By the way, I still have the hair you shed before. How about I knit you a hat and some clothes to wear first?"

"The Pokémon store seems to have hair-growing shampoo. I'll buy you a bottle."

"Actually, you're quite cute the way you are now. We need to have a more diverse aesthetic."

"besides……"

After driving Malanla away, after Feng comforted her for a while, Kapok Ball finally stopped crying. She looked at Feng with red eyes, then buried her face in his arms, as if she was a little ashamed to see people.

Then he quietly raised his head, tapped its bald head with a leaf, and pointed at Feng's clothes.

Feng immediately understood that Kapok Ball wanted new clothes.

Feng took out a small stool from the space bracelet, sat on it and began to study how to weave it so that it would be the same as the original hairstyle of the kapok ball.

"We need more fur here. This side is a little thin. Oops, I got pricked, but luckily it didn't break through..."

After a few clumsy attempts, he finally got it to look like this. Although it wasn't as beautiful and smooth as the hair of the previous kapok ball, it didn't look out of place at first glance.

"Next is the clothes. Oh, they are so difficult to knit..."

Feng felt a little regretful about shaving its hair. Now he had to use the hair to weave clothes for it. Moreover, shaving was quick, just a few clicks, but weaving required one stitch at a time.

Even if Feng is not afraid of being pricked, it is still time-consuming.

After more than thirty minutes, Feng finally finished his work, completing a "sweater" and a hat, both of which were knitted in the same shape as the previous kapok ball.

"Kapok Ball, come and try it out to see if it fits you."

Feng dressed it neatly and took out a mirror to look at it.

Kapok Ball seemed a little dissatisfied with Feng's craftsmanship. He fiddled with it with small leaves for a while before nodding reluctantly, which meant that Feng passed the test.

"Huh...it's getting late, and I have to go out tonight."

Feng picked up Kapok again, used the Poké Ball to put away Gyarados and Ursagi, and called Magoran and Shieldsword back to his side.

In Feng’s schedule, in addition to the evolution of Ma-la today, there are also some purchasing plans.

The shopping list originally included General and Ground Pure Crystals needed to upgrade Luna Bear, Elite Food Materials for Gyarados, some "baby supplies" for the soon-to-be-born Tantos, and so on...

Now we also need to add the hair growth shampoo with kapok balls.

By the way, when I have time, I should go to the Hunter Association to find Aoi Nishikawa to collect my reward.

The city's investigators have been very quiet lately, and routine patrols aren't as frequent as before. It seems they're preparing for something, like the calm before the storm...

On TV, the various channels in Zhuqing City report the most on the crimes of Pokémon hunters.

For example, a certain hunter indiscriminately captures Pokémon, destroying the Pokémon population ecology and causing local wild Pokémon to go crazy and attack humans.

For example, under the persuasion of the Alliance Investigator, a young Pokémon hunter came to his senses and reached a reconciliation with the Pokémon he captured.

In the classroom at school, Feng sometimes heard his classmates expressing their indignation in support of the investigators' crackdown on evil forces.

A situation that even ordinary residents can feel.

There's going to be trouble in the city...

But the more times like this happen, the more Feng needs stronger power, whether it is overt or covert, as chips and capital for a gamble.

Gain a foothold in it, or even... take advantage of the situation!

……

It is Saturday night, and the Zhuqing City Department Store is particularly lively and prosperous.

The crowd was bustling, children's eyes were sparkling with desire for toys, couples were hand in hand choosing gifts, and some trainers were choosing beautiful Poké Ball stickers for Pokémon.

Music plays softly in the mall, as if accompanying the shopping trip, and the air is filled with various aromas, from freshly baked bread to exquisite perfumes, each smell teasing people's senses.

But Feng did not linger on these for long. Instead, he walked directly to the Pokémon merchandise area of the mall with skillful and firm steps.

He had been to these shops several times, both openly and covertly, and had a good understanding of which ones were cheaper, which ones had good products, and which ones were more of a rip-off.

"Let's buy pure crystal first. This is the biggest expense."

Feng muttered to himself as he walked, and then stopped in front of a display window. He looked at a piece of Sun Stone inside that looked a little special and expressed his doubts, "Hey, is this a new product recently? We didn't have this a few days ago."
