Chapter 366 Beloved Family and Friends, Brothers and Sisters
Li Shuwen called Akai to let him know he was safe. He had been invited by the enthusiastic botanists to stay overnight at the scallion cultivation base before leaving.
Early in the morning, Gallade also taught Farfetch'd some skills during training.
After stuffing a large bundle of scallions into his backpack, Li Shuwen rode the Millerton back to the Veil Dojo.
These botanists are so enthusiastic!
When you have time, bring Farfetch'd and Gallade here more often to help breed these Farfetch'd.
Eight green onion ducks working together are enough to fend off most petty thieves.
Back at the Veiled Dojo, Li Shuwen handed the scallions to Akai to put away.
When Li Shuwen said that green onions were delicious, Akai was a little doubtful. How delicious could green onions be?
Li Shuwen said, "Akai, if you don't believe me, wash a few and taste them."
Half-believing, half-doubting, Ah Kai washed the scallion clean, took a bite, and immediately burst into tears.
Li Shuwen asked, somewhat puzzled, "Kai, is it spicy?"
Akai shook his head. "Master, I tasted the flavor of youth! I want Gravestone, Machamp, and Soldier Lobster to taste it too."
"Let them experience youth, and give them a special training in youth!"
Li Shuwen shook his head, letting Akai move around freely.
Suddenly remembering something, he said, "Kai, don't run upside down around the Curtain Dojo!"
When Li Shuwen didn't want to go grocery shopping, the uncles and aunts would secretly ask him if his disciple had something wrong with his head.
After a few peaceful days, Li Shuwen met up with Li Dazhuang, who had rushed back from the Yamanashi Research Institute.
Together, we went to the port and took the ferry to Lily Island, where the Sinnoh League headquarters is located.
Li Shuwen asked, "Dad, how's your mastery of Inferno Monkey's Rage Punch coming along?"
Li Dazhuang chuckled, "I can already use it four times skillfully. Years of training have made the Inferno Monkey's soul very resilient, able to withstand the pull of four Furious Fists."
"With a little more practice, reaching level five will be a breeze, level six won't be a problem, and level seven is just around the corner!"
Li Shuwen shook his head. "A punch of anger is no small matter; we must be careful!"
Li Dazhuang naturally knew this, and gripping the ferry railing, he said, "Of course I know. After this Four Heavenly Kings ranking competition, I will stay on Lily of the Valley Island to challenge for the championship."
"Just wait for my good news!"
The Four Heavenly Kings ranking competition was a rare spectacle, attracting several times more spectators than regional tournaments.
In other words, the Four Heavenly Kings are not allowed to participate, otherwise the league would definitely extend the competition to six days and empty the wallets of the tourists.
Li Shuwen and Li Dazhuang disembarked, only to find that Shirona and Cattleya were waiting for them at the port.
Some of the tourists who also disembarked from the ferry were curious about who the person was that made Cynthia, one of the Elite Four, wait.
However, one of the father and son is already past his prime, and the other is not famous enough.
Several female tourists did come up to ask Cynthia for autographs.
Li Shuwen was surprised to find that Cattleya's superpowers had increased by 70-80%, and there was absolutely no sign of them going out of control.
"Cynthia, have you been waiting long?"
Cynthia shook her head. "No, we just got here too. How's Uncle Big Strong's preparation for challenging the Elite Four?"
Li Dazhuang nodded. "You sit on the champion's throne and wait for me to challenge you."
Caldelia chuckled and said, "You're planning to defeat all four Heavenly Kings in one go, Uncle. You're quite the talker."
Li Shuwen waved his hand, "Alright, don't stand here, let's go eat first."
Hirona nodded. "I've made a reservation at the best restaurant on Lily of the Valley."
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Shirona and Li Shuwen ordered some of the restaurant's signature dishes.
After the dishes were served, Li Shuwen tasted them and then looked up at Cynthia. "Cynthia, don't you think this food tastes somewhat familiar?"
Cynthia nodded. "It does have a familiar feel to it."
Li Shuwen beckoned to a waiter, "Could I meet your restaurant's head chef?"
The waiter smiled and said, "No problem, I'll go get the chef right away."
A handsome middle-aged man with dark red hair walked out of the kitchen. "Is there something wrong with my cooking?"
Li Shuwen was somewhat surprised, "Uncle Caibo, it really is you!"
Chef Cai Bo chuckled. "Hey, Shuwen, are you planning to become one of the Four Heavenly Kings?"
Li Shuwen patted Li Dazhuang on the shoulder, "It's my old man who's going to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings."
Chef Cai Bo looked at Li Dazhuang and asked, "Dazhuang, are you really sure you can do this?"
It's obvious that the two are old friends.
They are all middle-aged men in the city of Veil, with some similar experiences.
Li Dazhuang clenched his fist. "Cheng Yilang, make me a golden fried rice."
Chef Cai Bo nodded. "Okay, I hope that after eating the Golden Fried Rice, you can more easily make your way to the Four Heavenly Kings."
Chef Caibo returned to the kitchen, and Li Dazhuang said with some emotion, "Back then, every time I won a victory, I would go to Cheng Yilang's restaurant with your mother to celebrate."
"Let's order a plate of golden fried rice to celebrate this victory and pray for the next one."
When the golden fried rice was served, Li Dazhuang distributed a bowl to everyone present.
"I pray that Cynthia will win big, I pray that Shuwen will inherit the gym smoothly, I pray that I will succeed as champion, I pray for Gadria..."
Cattleya glared at Li Dazhuang. "Uncle, why are you getting stuck when it's my turn?"
Li Shuwen continued, "I pray that Gadriya becomes a master of superpowers!"
After the meal, Li Dazhuang and Gadria disappeared, leaving Li Shuwen and Shirona to wander the streets.
Li Shuwen thought of his good brother's matter, "Xerona, I have a friend."
Cynthia narrowed her eyes slightly. "I have a friend. Do I really need to use that line in front of her?"
Li Shuwen is utterly incompetent!
Li Shuwen seemed to sense Cynthia's emotions and explained, "He really is my friend, a friend I met online when I was a child. He is the captain of the Quicksand Squad of the Sinnoh League."
"He went on a mission a few months ago and has been missing ever since. I suspect... he may have been killed in action, but I don't have the authority to know anything about him."
Li Shuwen clenched his fist. "I hope that after you become the champion, you can help me investigate his information."
Cynthia's eyes darted around. Why did Li Shuwen suddenly want to investigate her online identity?
If Li Shuwen found out that the Shark Warrior was actually her...
If this identity is exposed, it seems there won't be any problem?
Wait, the account "Shark God of War" seems useful.
Cynthia said calmly, "If he really sacrifices himself, what do you plan to do?"
Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes. "Of course, I'll avenge him. He's my dearest friend, my brother!"
Cynthia was fairly satisfied with this answer.
"Once I become the champion, I'll help you investigate his background."
Li Shuwen took out his phone and shared the information of the Shark Warrior account with Cynthia.
Cynthia nodded. "I'll try to investigate for you. As one of the Elite Four, I have some authority in the League."
Then, Cynthia used Shark God of War's account to rebuke Li Shuwen for his behavior of playing both sides between the two beauties, Cynthia and Cabbage!
If Li Shuwen chooses Shirona, he will be criticized for abandoning his wife who shared his hardships and for being greedy for wealth.
If Li Shuwen chooses cabbage, he will be scolded for not being able to distinguish between what is important and what is not, and for not following his true feelings.
