Reborn in Pokémon, my background is super hard

Wutong, who is riding the Crystal Rock Snake on the sea, is heading to the last gym of the Orange Alliance - the Liugan Island where the Liugan Gym is located.

"There's a call~ There's a call Lotto~!" The cell phone Rotom suddenly flew out and circled around the sycamore tree.

"Is this a call from my grandparents? Could it be!? Side mission!" Wutong said while looking at the caller displayed on the Rotom screen of his cell phone.

After all, Wutong would call Aquan and Xingzi every time after completing a challenge to make sure they were safe, so the sudden call must be about something.

Wutong looked at Rotom's cell phone and felt a big exclamation point appear above its head.

"Xiaotong~ Are you going to Liangan Island now?" After picking up the phone, Xingzi's face appeared on the screen.

"Yes, grandma, what's wrong?" Wutong asked.

"Well, you should be passing by Asia Island, where a celebration is about to be held. An old friend of mine is also there. You can go and relax. It is very important to balance work and rest, and my old friend seems to be in trouble. Help her if you can." Kyoko said.

"Okay grandma, I'm also very interested in this celebration." Wutong replied happily.

Help, it probably won't be anything particularly difficult, otherwise grandma wouldn't let him help.

"Then you should have fun~ Take care of your health..." Xingzi hung up the phone after telling her a lot of things.

"Assia Island, isn't that going to happen soon?" Wutong started thinking after hanging up the phone.

I remember correctly that in the second theatrical version of the anime, Lugia's explosion happened after Ash challenged Yuzu Gym, so the time should be about the same.

Although this theatrical version is also quite dangerous, you definitely can’t miss the opportunity to meet Lugia.

"It's decided, Rotom, reset the navigation, let's go to Asia Island!" Wutong said to Rotom on his mobile phone.

"Start re-planning the route Lotto~Target Asia Island Lotto~" After hearing Wutong's words, Rotom on the mobile phone changed the navigation target.

After more than half a day, Wutong successfully arrived at Asia Island, the cultural center of the Orange Islands and also the island of celebration.

"It's really a lively atmosphere before a celebration." Wutong said to himself while walking in the town of Asia Island.

At this time, Wutong was trying to find Grandma's friend according to the address given by Grandma.

However, in less than a minute, Wutong gave up. As expected, road madness is not easy to treat. It is better to find a reliable person to lead the way before getting lost outside the town.

"Hello, do you know where Pinqi Shrine is?" Wutong found an old lady who seemed very talkative and asked.

"Pingqi Shrine? Oh, I remembered it. Do you want to go to that shrine? How about I recommend some other shrines to you?" the old lady said.

"What's wrong with this Pingqi Shrine?" Wutong asked curiously.

"As the cultural center of the Orange Islands, our Asia Island often holds various celebrations. Because there are many various celebrations, there are many shrines on Asia Island. However, this Pinyin Shrine has been in a sluggish state. I even heard that this year there are no celebrations. They can't be found." The old woman explained.

"What is a celebration witch?" Wutong felt like he had discovered a new world. These were customs and customs that had not been shown in the anime. It was really curious.

"Although our Asia Island will hold various celebrations, the legendary celebrations are the most important to us. In order to elect the festival witches for the legendary celebrations, each shrine will select a festival maiden to compete. The final The winner can serve as the priestess of the legendary celebration." The old lady explained patiently.

"However, Pingu Shrine has not had a festival shrine maiden for many years, and there may not even be a festival shrine maiden this year. If this continues, the shrine may be closed next year." The old woman continued.

"That's it. Thank you for telling me so much, but I still want to go to Pinqi Shrine. After all, I made an agreement with my family to go and see it." Wutong said firmly.

"Is that so? You are such a good boy. It just so happens that I have nothing to do so I will take you to Pingqi Shrine." The old lady said enthusiastically.

"Really? Thank you so much!" Wutong said happily.

Under the leadership of the enthusiastic old lady, Wutong came to Pinqi Shrine.

"Look, this is it. It's very desolate, isn't it?" the old lady said, pointing to the dilapidated shrine in front of her.

"It is indeed very desolate." Wutong couldn't help but nodded in agreement as he looked at the torii gate in front of him that had faded due to age and disrepair.

"Okay, old lady, I'm leaving. If the young man wants to go to another shrine, come find me~" the old lady said and left.

After watching the old lady leave, Wutong bravely walked into Pingqi Shrine.

After walking into the Pinji Shrine, an old man wearing a witch costume was cleaning the courtyard.

"Hello, is this Grandma Taozi?" Wutong walked up and asked.

"Ah, where are our long-lost guests? My lovely little girl, I wonder if you want to pay homage or pray for blessings?" The old man turned his head and said kindly.

"Sorry, I'm a man, and I'm Xingzi's grandson. I heard that you have been in trouble recently, and my grandma asked me to come and see if there is anything I can do to help." Wutong asked.

"Ah~ It turns out he is Kyoko's grandson. I'm so sorry. My eyesight is not very good. Have you eaten? Are you cold? How is Kyoko now..." Taozi gushed after hearing Wutong's self-introduction. He spoke absolutely.

Wutong had no choice but to answer them one by one. Fortunately, Taozi also knew that it was not good to stand outside all the time, so she brought Wutong into the house.

"Kyoko is still as enthusiastic as before~" Taozi knelt on a cushion on the tatami in the room, holding a teacup in her hand and said kindly.

"Yes, grandma has always been very enthusiastic and likes to help others." Wutong sat cross-legged and also held a cup of hot tea in her hand.

After a while of conversation, Wutong also roughly understood Taozi's character, which was a very kind and stable character.

She always has a smile on her face, and nothing seems to make her angry, but her temper may be a little too slow, which sometimes makes people a little worried.

"But it's hard for you to help Xiaotong with my trouble~" Taozi said slowly while drinking tea.

Seeing Taozi's unhurried look, Wutong almost thought that Taozi was actually not in any trouble.

"It's okay, Grandma Taozi. Although my abilities are limited, I will do my best to help you. After all, you are my grandma's friend." Wutong said.

"Ah~ Really, that's great~ I'll leave it to you, Xiaotong~" Taozi said happily after hearing Wutong's words.

However, Wutong will soon regret his promise. Sure enough, promises cannot be made casually.
