Chapter 323 A Little Real Shock
Asia Island is located at the end of the Orange Islands and is the cultural center of the islands. Every year in late summer, a festival to worship the God of the Sea is held, attracting countless tourists from the Kanto region.
However, this time the festival was particularly different because of a collector named Gilluta among the tourists...
Zhou You transferred to Arthur and landed at the height of Fire Island. In view of the possible events that might happen next, he planned to collect the three treasures in advance and take them out directly to save Xiaozhi from risking his life to get them.
However, when he took the red translucent gem from the completely unattended stone platform, he found that the appearance of the fire treasure in his hand was completely different from that in the movie version, and there was no flame burning in it at all.
"Qiao Qiao, you are not the chosen controller." Zekrom explained, "You need special power to activate this gem."
If you just want to participate in the activities at the festival, anyone can do it.
But if you want to really activate the power of the gems and make them play the role of pacifying the three gods under the coordination of the Sea Flute, you must perform the ceremony by the so-called "controller" as the legend says.
In desperation, Zhou You had to put the orb back to its original place and took Arthur to Asia Island.
Selling tree fruits and homemade medicines just made a little money, and it was a good choice to stay here for two days during the festival.
Asia Island is a semi-modernized island city, but the residents of the island have arranged a large number of exotic totem poles in the festive atmosphere, and the indigenous people have also prepared traditional costumes that Zhou You think have the style of some North American regions on the earth.
The process of modernization has made the indigenous people here seem to have a subtle attitude towards the celebration. Compared with worshiping the illusory sea god, the economic development promoted by tourists from all over the world (mainly Kanto) is more valued by them.
After all, it is a festival celebration, and Zhou You was inevitably sold a lot of specialties by the residents of the island. Just as he was walking in the festive atmosphere with large bags and a traditional costume of unknown meaning, he found a familiar figure in a snack bar.
It was a combination of a woman with a long sword hairstyle, a man with a gentle temperament, and a cat.
"Team Rocket?" He approached curiously, "Why are you here?"
Hearing the familiar voice, the three people who were eating happily immediately looked in the direction of the voice and found the boy they had met several times before.
"It's none of your business, we go wherever we want!" Musashi ignored Zhou You and continued to taste the special snacks.
The latter noticed that the snacks piled up on the trio's table were not cheap. They were so generous, they obviously made a lot of money recently.
Or did they finally get rich since they were no longer dragged down by Team Rocket?
"Don't say that, Musashi, he helped us before anyway." Kojiro was as calm as ever, "Do you want to eat some too?"
"Okay."
Zhou You did not miss this good opportunity to understand the trio's livelihood after the disbandment of Team Rocket.
As he expected, after the disbandment of Team Rocket, Musashi, Kojiro and Meow Meow carefully examined their life experience and future, and finally realized a terrible reality-they who had worked hard in Team Rocket for many years were no longer young.
Musashi and Kojiro are 25 years old this year. At this age, serious people have started families and careers, but they are still following a 10-year-old child and letting themselves go.
After thinking calmly, the trio felt that it was time to consider their future. Although they would not work, get married, and live a stable life, they should at least have a basic plan whether they become actresses or breeders.
Considering that their own style of doing things is often exaggerated, after thinking again and again, the trio decided to raise a huge sum of money for the future.
"This is indeed a good idea. I think with the ability of the three of you, you should have raised that huge sum of money." Zhou You had a vague guess in his mind.
"You are different from the little brat. You have good vision." Musashi patted her chest proudly, as if she really played a role. "We built an air warship for a fool and earned a full 10 million!"
To be precise, it was built by Kojiro and Meow Meow. Musashi's main role was to use her mysterious momentum to deal with the client, and she was very careful to raise the original reward of only 5 million to 10 million.
Seeing that the people around him cast their eyes when they heard "10 million", Meow Meow jumped onto the table and pressed Musashi's head into the snack: "Meow, hahaha, what's there to brag about in making 10 million in the game of life? Musashi, are you too excited for your first sightseeing in your life, meow!"
What? It turned out to be a backgammon provided by the hotel. The rest of the people lost interest immediately.
It is said that a meow speaking human language is actually a more worthy phenomenon to explore than 10 million, but for some reason, the people on the island did not feel the slightest surprise about the phenomenon that "elves can speak human language".
"Is the victim you are talking about called Jill..."
Zhou You wanted to ask for more details, but Musashi, who was pressed into the snack by Meow Meow, suddenly stood up and started to run wild because his proud sword hairstyle was stained with juice.
Seeing that Team Rocket had started their daily internal conflict again, he wanted to avoid being implicated. In order not to waste food, he took a lot of Team Rocket's skewers and left the scene before the chaos expanded.
"I don't know what big thing Team Rocket has done again."
During the tour, seeing Zhou You looking thoughtful, Eden was very puzzled: "Qiao Qiao, have you heard anything strange again?"
Isn't it just that Team Rocket built a spaceship for a collector? What's so worthy of attention?
Zhou You didn't know how to explain it, so he just stuffed the skewers into its mouth.
Isn't it just that Team Rocket's participation caused Gilluta, who originally drove the flying palace, to drive an air battleship? It's not a big problem, don't panic.
Compared to Team Rocket, what deserves his attention more at this moment is another group of familiar faces not far away...
Just when Zhou You noticed the other party, a girl in a brown short skirt in the group also noticed his sight: "Qiao Qiao, why are you here too?"
"To participate in the celebration."
Zhou You looked at the other party with a complicated expression: "Ye Zi, Qing Lu, Xiao Xia, why are you here too?"
Xiao Xia's appearance here is fine. Although Xiao Zhi is currently traveling alone in the Orange Islands, this is the celebration of the God of the Sea after all. It is not surprising that she, a water-specialized trainer, comes to join in the fun.
But Ye Zi is committed to conquering Moltres, and Qing Lu has been practicing alone after the Quartz Conference. How can they appear in this small island celebration?
The three looked at each other and showed a strange expression.
"Professor Oak gave us the boat ticket and said that there is a celebration to worship the God of the Sea here, so I came here." Xiao Xia explained, and it seems that she has little to do with Xiao Zhi.
"Didn't Grandpa tell you?" Qinglu asked in confusion, "Of course we came here to let the three sacred birds we subdued communicate with the God of Fire, the God of Thunder, and the God of Ice."
