Pokémon: I am One Piece

Chapter 234 Trapped in an underground cave

The briquettes given by Citron were very resistant to burning. Swamp Monster sat near the fire holding the stone, and the soup in the pot was still bubbling.

"Hiss~ It hurts!" As soon as Shi Shi regained consciousness, a strong pain came from the back of his head. He stretched out his hand and touched a big bag. He groaned in pain after just a slight touch. yelled.

"Don't move around, pay attention to the injury on your head." Sawano filled a bowl of hot soup and slowly handed it to him.

Shi Shi picked up a spoonful, blew on it, sipped it, and then swallowed it in one gulp. "It tastes good! Brother Zeye, where is this place?"

"The underground caves of Twin Islands."

"Ah, why are we here, where are the others?"

"You were knocked unconscious by the falling cargo and fell into the sea. When I rescued you, you were swept here by the undercurrent of the sea."

Looking at Zeye's expressionless face, Shitou knew he was angry. "Brother Zeye, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me..."

"You have thin arms and legs, why can't you think of grabbing that box of goods?"

"I heard from Brother Obama that the things in the box are valuable. I thought that if it fell into the sea, I would have to pay for it, so I wanted to rescue it." Shitou scratched his head, not daring to look at Zeye.

"It seems that the safety education I gave you before was just a decoration. If you pay, you will pay, and I won't let you pay. Why are you working so hard? Do you know that if I hadn't found you in time, you would have died! The kind that can't even find a body!" Sawano became more and more excited as he spoke, and unconsciously roared at the stone.

"I didn't think much about it at the time." Seeing Zeye being so excited, Shitou wanted to calm him down. "Brother Zeye, don't be angry. I'm just an orphan. I have nothing to worry about. Even if I suddenly disappear one day, it won't have any impact."

Hearing his words, Zeye became even more angry. "What nonsense are you talking about! Have you ever thought about how much I would blame myself if you really died like this? How sad my brothers and sisters Xiaohai, Qingqing, and Alu would be, Xiaoquanshi , what should I do with the rock dog?”

"I'm sorry..." Shitou lowered his head and realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"After arriving at Shuimai City on this trip, you can stay there. You are not suitable to be a sailor like this."

"Brother Zeye, I know I was wrong. Please, don't leave me in Shuimai City. I won't do it next time." Hearing what Zeye said, Shitou was so anxious that he burst into tears.

Looking at his pitiful look, Zeye really didn't know what to say. He tried his best to rescue the goods, just to protect their collective interests. It was obviously a good intention, but Zeye just tolerated it. Can't help but be angry.

Looking at Shitou's somewhat thin body, Zeye suddenly remembered that he was only a little over 13 years old, and he was really just a little bit away from ending his life like this.He had suffered so much in the previous 12 years that when others treated him a little better, he just thought about how to repay them.

Sawano still remembers that when he received his first salary from him, except for some left over for basic daily expenses, the rest was used to repair the cemetery for his grandfather in the orphanage.

"Look at the other people on the boat. They all knew they were hiding well, but you were the only one stupid enough to rush forward."

"Brother Zeye, although I haven't received much education, the dean and grandpa told me that you can't just enjoy the kindness others do to you, but you must learn to reciprocate. I only know that I will be kind to whoever is kind to me. ,It's that simple."

Seeing his stubborn look, Sawano couldn't bear to talk to him anymore. He just stared at him and said firmly. "Next time something like this happens, even if the ship is about to explode, you have to protect yourself first, otherwise you will have to go back and forth where you came from."

"I understand, thank you Brother Zeye!" Shitou finally smiled after hearing Zeye relent.

With the injury of Shi Shi, Zeye did not dare to rush into the underground cave.Generally speaking, in such a dark cave, as long as you try to walk towards the light source, you can find the way out. But as they walked, there was a feeling of getting colder and colder, and they seemed to go deeper. .

Only then did Sawano remember that this was an ice cave, which was different from ordinary caves. Ice could refract light, which would mislead his judgment. Fortunately, he had marked the path he walked before. Even if he couldn't walk through, You can also go back to the starting point.

After walking for a while, Sawano suddenly heard the sounds of fighting in the distance, which seemed to be vaguely mixed with the shouts of human commanders.Ze Ye was overjoyed. If he could meet someone, maybe they would know how to get out.

As he walked further in, Sawano felt more and more complicated about the underground cave. Not only were there many forks in the cave, but there were also waterways extending in all directions. In some places, the water flow was so turbulent that even a giant tooth shark could not guarantee a safe passage.

"Swamp Monster, push the boulders on the shore to the entrance of the underground river to see if you can temporarily slow down the water."

"Goo!"

Hearing Zeye's words, the giant swamp monster nodded, and saw it hugging the boulder with both hands, lifting the stone effortlessly, and then threw it into the underground river.

"Such a great strength. I wish my little fist stone could be this powerful someday." Shitou looked at the powerful Swampert and felt sincerely envious.

"Take your time, don't be in a hurry, sooner or later there will be a day like this."

Looking at the stone, Zeye remembered Du Juan's evaluation of him, saying that he had a heart as strong as stone. Although he started a little worse, he was far more diligent and studious than his peers.

"Well, I'll try my best!"

Seeing that one stone had no effect, the Swampert threw two more.Because of the obstruction of three huge rocks, the rushing water gradually eased.

"Megalodon, take us there. Swampert is leading the way. Don't let wild Pokémon interfere with us."

Floating along the river, Sawano could feel the cold around him getting stronger. In order to avoid getting sick from the cold, he quickly took out a few thicker clothes from his bag.

"It's so cold here. It feels like winter in Sinnoh." Shitou hunched over and put his hands in his sleeves, looking like a little old man.

"I heard that this place used to be the nest of the frozen bird. I guess this ice cave was formed because of it."

"Frozen Bird! Is it one of the three holy birds in Kanto legend?" Hearing this name, Shitou suddenly became excited. When he was at the base, he often pestered Brother Ohama and asked him to talk about various regions. ancient legend.

"Well, someone has found traces of the Freeze Bird deep in the underground caves of Twin Islands before."

"Then we have a chance to see the Frozen Bird!"

"I don't know about that, maybe."
