In the end, of course, there were no big disturbances in the competition on Naipulu Island.
In view of Annie's super mountain-climbing ability and the magical Pokémon with a super-power attribute, which is the terrifying super power of dreamy instant freezing of geysers, the owner Xiao Dan simply surrendered and surrendered after understanding the situation.
Anne easily got the badge made of white clams, which represented a successful challenge to the Neplu Gym and victory.
Of course, just because Annie can get it successfully does not mean that Xiaozhi can get it directly as well.
Anyway, after Annie got the badge, it was not very good to climb the mountain. Xiaozhi, who almost fell to death in the middle, had to compete with Xiao Dan, the gym owner of Naipuru Island, for three games, and got rid of it in the middle.
After working tirelessly to cause trouble for the Rockets, they barely managed to win the challenge with a slight advantage of one win, one loss and one small victory, and finally obtained the same one that represented courage, perseverance and vitality.
Whitecaps badge.
After both Annie and Xiaozhi successfully obtained the badges, everyone naturally had no intention of staying on the deserted Naipuru Island any longer, and instead said goodbye to the owner Xiao Dan that day.
Then we headed to our next destination, which is in the southern waters of Naipulu Island - the Seven Fruit Islands!
Annie admired the Seven Fruit Islands very much.
Because, that Xiaojian said that there are many and many Wendan fruits growing on the Seven Fruit Islands, and it happens to be the ripe season of Wendan fruits now?
then!
In view of the fact that the 'Pinggan fruit' picked on Napinggan Island was a little bit too much to eat, Annie of course once again fixed her eyes on the fruit Qidao mentioned by Xiaojian and the so-called 'Wendan' fruit.
on the body.
However……
When Annie, Xiao Mengmeng and the three of them couldn't wait to fly to one of the seven fruit islands, when everyone landed and saw the large yellow fruits growing all over the mountains and hanging on the branches, she
Everyone was immediately dumbfounded.
"What a mess of Wen Dan Guo!"
(へ╬)
"Isn't it just Yuzu!"
=('ヮ'=)
"It makes people's expectations in vain."
(ˇεˇ)
"Why don't you just call it 'grapefruit' instead of calling it a nonsense 'egg of plague'? Do you want to bully others for being ignorant, or do you want to show off your ridiculous 'informedness'?"
s(｀ヘ;)ゞ
That’s right!
When she saw the real Wendan fruit, and when she understood that the so-called Wendan was actually just grapefruit, Anne naturally glared at the 'little bitch' angrily.
She said that the so-called 'Wendan', that is, the fruit of the Rutaceae evergreen tree commonly known as: reunion fruit, pomelo, she, Queen Anne, has seen and eaten many times in several worlds.
I’ve eaten bitter, sour, numb and sweet ones!
If they had said it was 'Yuzu' earlier, she wouldn't have been looking forward to it so much before coming here, and she wouldn't have had a huge gap in her heart now, and she wouldn't have had the desire to beat someone up?
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"Ha ha!"
"No matter what it's called, it doesn't matter whether it's pomelo or pomelo."
"Anyway!"
"Since it's here and it's ripe, let's quickly pick one and try it."
"Just choose this one!"
When Annie was angrily scolding Xiao Jian, Xiao Zhi didn't mind much. He just stepped forward and stood on tiptoe, and after some fiddling, he finally succeeded in picking a big yellow grapefruit from the tree.
"grumble?"
Seeing this, seeing that it was ready to be eaten, the little Dream floating on the side couldn't wait to use its super power, causing the outer skin of the grapefruit in Xiaozhi's hand to instantly fall apart, and then reveal the pieces of pulp inside.
.
Immediately afterwards, the pieces of fruit pulp fell apart again and flew into the hands of everyone present and the Pokémon.
Of course, there is no doubt that the piece floating towards itself is the largest!
"Huh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
After skillfully cutting open the fruit petals and taking a bite, Anne was instantly filled with the sweet and juicy pulp that filled her mouth and taste buds. Anne was a little surprised and slightly opened her eyes.
“It seems quite delicious!”
ヾ(^^*)))
Obviously, even she herself didn't expect that the 'grapefruit' here in Qidao, that is, the 'wendan' that she had just criticized verbally and written, would be so delicious.
"that is true!"
“So sweet!”
“There’s so much moisture!”
"嘁kī嘁kī~"
"yes!"
"It's so enjoyable! I want it more!"
"tasty!"
"Beep!"
"Bikaqiu~!"
And similarly, Misty, Togepi, Xiaojian, Xiaozhi and Pikachu, who had tasted it, also cheered and praised, not stingy with their respective words of praise.
"Since there are so many here..."
()
"And it's so delicious..."
乛乛
Soon, Annie finished her food in three swipes, and she had never thought that the grapefruit here was unexpectedly delicious, so she maliciously confronted the little dream next to her who had also finished eating.
They glanced at each other and exchanged a tacit look.
"Chi! Chi!"
After receiving the instruction, of course the little dream nodded excitedly and vigorously, obviously realizing its owner's true intention and indicating that it knew what to do.
"Tibbers!"
ψ(｀)ψ
"go!"
()
"Pick some more, I want the mature ones!"
(ψ｀▽′)
Anne was in a good mood after the plan had been decided, so she pointed her little hand and ordered the little bear standing behind her, who was almost never a vegetarian, to pick more grapefruits for everyone.
(…)
(●￣￣●)
After hearing the order, Tibbs certainly didn't dare to hesitate. He just walked straight to the big grapefruit tree, then stretched out his paws to hug the trunk and shook it vigorously.
There is no doubt that Tibbers does not know which grapefruits are ripe and which ones are not ripe. Anyway, he only knows that if the ripe grapefruits are shaken like this, they can definitely fall.
, and those that are immature...maybe they can also fall off?
But it won't care so much. After all, it doesn't know how to pick this kind of thing, so it can only use this stupid method. If anyone is not happy, then he can pick it himself.
soon!
As a large number of fallen leaves fell, at the same time, dozens or hundreds of ripe grapefruits fell one after another under its powerful shaking.
"many!"
"Beep! Beep!"
"enough!"
“Too much to eat!”
"that is!"
"That's enough for each person..."
"嘁kī嘁kī~biuu~"
Seeing this, Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi, Xiaojian, Pikachu and Togepi started making noises one after another.
However……
Amidst everyone's exclamations and dreams, and the excited screams of Pikachu and Togepi, before everyone could move the fruits to the beach one by one and enjoy them to their heart's content, something unexpected happened.
"Stop!!"
"hateful!"
"Thieves, I finally caught you!"
"The thief who stole Wendan!"
"Wake up!"
Not far from the orchard, after seeing the abnormal situation here, a girl who looked like she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, waving a wooden stick in her hand, ran towards the crowd, and then shouted menacingly.
Say something loudly.
"you!"
"I, Nana, will never let it go..."
"Let go..."
Unfortunately, when she rushed to a certain bear and discovered that the certain bear was more than three meters tall and had a fat and thick body, and she knew it was not easy to mess with, she subconsciously
She slowed down her pace, then ran to a certain bear and stopped, raising her head to confront the bear. The wooden stick in her hand could no longer be knocked down.
At the same time, the vicious words and domineering attitude in her mouth that she wanted to argue with reason were no longer followed.
(!!)
:Ouch!
However, Tibbs didn't care so much, he just stretched out his claws to catch the woman, and then clamped her directly in his arms, letting her graceful body struggle and kick, while he couldn't wait to hold her.
He turned to look at its poor little master, as if he was asking for instructions.
"..."
(lll￢▽￢)
Of course Anne knew what her little bear Tibbs meant. He had just said that he had accidentally caught a 'wild' female human and was asking if he could eat it.
As long as she nodded a little, it was not said that it would definitely instantly strip off the clothes and pants of the young lady who came to accuse her, and then stand in front of the stunned sister Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi, Xiaojian and others.
Perform the drama of eating a living person from birth!
Anne knew that kind of thing, and her little bear could definitely do it.
"!!"
"hateful!"
"Shameless thief!"
"You stole the fruits that others worked hard to cultivate, and you dare to do it first?"
"Let me go!"
"I will never forgive you!!"
Fortunately, before Annie nodded, and before Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi and Xiaojian came to their senses, the woman who just called herself 'Nana' reacted first and was once again in Tibbers' arms.
While struggling desperately, he cursed loudly.
"ah!"
"The fruit trees on the Seven Fruit Islands seem to have owners?"
"Not wild?"
"this……"
"It doesn't sound like..."
"But……"
"We have all eaten one, and now we have shaken down so many, what should we do?"
"I……"
"I have no idea……"
"Maybe we should pay for it and apologize later?"
"Buy, buy it?"
"Yes."
"Is this the only way?"
"But!"
"We have no money!"
"ah?"
"That……"
"How about we run away while Tibbers catches her?"
"impossible!"
"That's not right!"
"Then Xiaoxia, tell me what to do!"
As the woman scolded and struggled, Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi and Xiaojian finally all got excited, came to their senses, and then hurriedly got together to discuss countermeasures in a low voice.
"Beep?"
same!
Seeing this change, seeing Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia and Xiaojian gathered together for urgent discussion, and then looking at the fierce woman who was still controlled by Tibbers, who was picking up a fallen
Pikachu, who was about to eat the big grapefruit, was at a loss as to what to do.
"Really!"
ε=(ο｀*)))Alas
"Stop arguing!"
(O ^~^ O)
Finally, Anne spoke and motioned for everyone to calm down.
"Na!"
(ω)
"I have just arrived here, and I don't know that these fruit trees were planted by your family. How about this, and they spend money to buy them. That's okay, right?"
☆(o*ω)
Then, Anne did not let Tibbers let him go, but walked up to the woman, and regardless of the other's doubts and angry eyes, she took out a thick stack of this world's currency and handed it over, and said so
Said this.
If they are wild and ownerless, such as those on Pinggan Island, Queen Anne will just pick them if she says so. No matter how angry and protesting others are, it will be useless.
She planted a fruit tree and was caught picking it, so Anne's only choice now was to spend some money to buy it.
After all, Queen Anne is never short of money. She just spends money to buy whatever she likes. Problems that can be solved with money are no longer problems!
And if the other party disagrees...
Then add more money!
If she still doesn't agree, then she might as well buy the entire island directly!
When the time comes, she, who has suddenly become the master, can of course eat as much as she wants and pick as much as she wants, and no one can control it!
She could even say that the other party was planting illegally, and then confiscate it without causing any pollution?
Of course, Anne would definitely not be able to do such inhuman things. She would not do such evil things just for a few bucks, especially if she was being unreasonable.
"ah!"
After listening to what Anne said and being stunned for a while, and seeing Anne's appearance clearly, and then looking at the large amount of money Anne took out, the angry woman slowly calmed down.
"you……"
"Did you just come here?"
"Are you really not the thief who stole Wendan?"
Then, she looked around and found that the only people present were Xiaoxia, Xiaojian, and Xiaozhi, as well as two or three Pokémon. The other three were indeed dressed as travelers, and it certainly didn't look like they were stealing fruit.
After the thief, she gave up her struggle and asked in surprise.
"You are the thief!"
()
"If people want it, they can buy it directly, or they can rob it directly, so they won't steal it!"
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
Anne explained with some disdain, and then waved her hand to signal Tibbs to let him go and stop thinking about eating living people.
"that……"
"terribly sorry!"
"We are really just travelers who have just arrived here. We thought that the Wendan fruits here on the Seven Fruit Islands are all wild, so..."
"Anyway!"
"Annie will compensate, please won't pursue it any further, right?"
Seeing Tibbers letting go of the woman, seeing the other woman stand up and subconsciously taking Anne's wad of money without any further reaction, Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi, and Xiaojian looked at each other,
Then she breathed a sigh of relief and Xiaoxia walked over and explained with a smile.
At the same time, Xiaoxia did not forget to tell everyone that they were here and were cruising the Orange Islands, preparing to collect Orange League badges and then participate in the Orange League competition.
"So that's it!"
"So, you are Pokémon trainers?"
"Ha ha……"
"I'm sorry, I thought you were thieves who have been stealing Wendan recently, so..."
Obviously, Annie's cute and very confusing appearance and the 'money power' in her hand are still very useful. Coupled with Xiaoxia's explanation, the woman put away the money without leaving a trace, while feeling a little weird.
He smiled sheepishly.
"??"
"The thief who has been stealing Wendan?"
"What's going on?"
Hearing what the woman said, Xiao Jian and Xiao Zhi looked at each other, then subconsciously walked over and asked curiously.
"You don't know?"
"It seems that you have just arrived. I misunderstood you."
After apologizing again, the woman who became more and more amiable, the girl who called herself Nana, sighed and continued:
"actually……"
"The thing is like this..."
Since these people were indeed unintentional and had paid a large sum of money in compensation, she naturally had no intention of continuing to investigate further. Instead, after seeing that they still looked very interested, she thought about it.
, simply told what happened on the Seven Fruit Islands recently.
It turns out that before Annie, Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia and Xiaojian came to the Seven Fruit Islands, that is, a few days before the 'Wendan' began to mature, a group of hateful thieves began to appear on the island?
The most disgusting thing about the other party is that they not only stole ripe fruits, but also destroyed many fruit trees, and destroyed a large area with one attack. That's why she was so angry just now and subconsciously killed several people.
He thought he was the "Wen Dan" thief they had been looking for for a long time and rushed over menacingly.
Well now, since Annie, Xiaoxia and others are not the 'Wen Dan' thieves, then there must be someone else who stole the fruits and destroyed the fruit trees during this period!
As for who it will be, it is unknown for the time being. She and her companions, the villagers and fruit farmers have also been very distressed about this, but there is no good way to do it. They can only patrol around the island.
In order to find those nasty guys.
…
At this time, when that Nana was introducing the situation on the Seven Fruit Islands to Annie, Xiaoxia and others, and introducing the difficulties that Wendan on the island was facing, when everyone started to sit in a row and eat those grapefruits after asking for permission,
Not far from the beach where everyone was sitting, more than a hundred meters away on the sea surface, a periscope quietly stood up from under the sea surface.
"!!"
"Did you see that?"
"Saw it!"
"Meow~!"
"It's the little devils, Mew, those little devils and Pikachu!"
And the one holding out the periscope and conferring in the Magikarp-shaped submarine under the sea was not Musashi, Kojiro, and Mew. Who were the three Team Rocket villains?
"Very good!"
"They didn't find us, are we going to launch an attack?"
"idiot!"
"That's not what I asked!"
"Moreover, if Little Guitou and Meng Meng are here, if you launch an attack rashly, you will die!"
"Meow?"
"So Musashi, what do you mean..."
"Wen Dan!"
"You saw it too, right?"
"The whole island is covered with Wendan, and as far as you can see, they are all filled with those golden fruits!"
“How wonderful!”
"I'm thinking, haven't our funds bottomed out recently?"
"It's better..."
"Let's go pick some. In addition to eating it ourselves, we can also sell it for money. What do you think?"
"Meow!"
"What a great idea. Of course we, the Rockets, cannot let go of such a good thing!"
"That's right!"
"We Team Rocket like to do this kind of bad thing the most!"
"So!"
"Prepare to execute the battle plan!"
"Let's go to the other side of the island, stay away from the little devil and the little devils."
"Then……"
"We're going to pick a whole submarine's worth of bundan and sell them in the market!"
"marvelous!"
"Musashi, this is such a good idea!"
"Meow~"
“That’s indeed a good idea!”
"Then let's go!"
Just like that, after the two members of Team Rocket finished their discussion, the periscope quietly retracted.
Then, unnoticed by the few people talking on the shore, the huge submarine in the shape of Magikarp quietly circled around from the depths of the sea towards the other direction of the Seven Fruit Islands like a ghost.
