Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

Night falls, the imperial capital.

It was drizzling outside the window.

Fine raindrops hit the leaves, making a dripping sound, bringing a hint of coolness to the hot imperial capital.

"Xia Yu..." Sylvia looked at Xia Yu seriously and said, "Just now, Champion Som and Xie Shuen sent messages at the same time. Their park was attacked and suffered heavy losses... Jiang Chengen was also kidnapped and his whereabouts are currently unknown."

"They don't know the identity of the attacker, they just know that he is very powerful."

"Also, Jiang Yu just called. The robbers have contacted him and asked him to prepare the ransom and go to the designated location to redeem the person in a week."

"And the Divine Coffin-4 attacked the Longsha Society, and David... was also kidnapped."

Hearing Sylvia's words, Xia Yu's eyes were as sharp as knives, and he looked out the window without saying a word, with his hands on the table, his face as gloomy as water.

"Dong dong!"

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting Xia Yu's thoughts and causing Xia Yu, Sylvia and Eve beside him to frown slightly.

"Who?" Sylvia asked.

"Me!" Chi Hanqing's voice rang out.

"Open the door and let her in." Xia Yu waved his hand, motioning Eve to open the door.

"Squeak."

The door of the office opened, and Chi Hanqing, wearing a lab coat, looked eerily calm.

After she walked into the room, she locked the door, then raised her head and looked at Xia Yu, and a cold voice rang out: "Has Sylvia told you?"

"Yeah." Xia Yu nodded calmly.

"David has been kidnapped... His whereabouts are unknown, and his life or death is uncertain." Chi Hanqing had no expression on his face, and said calmly: "I'm going to save him. I want to see him alive or dead."

She seemed exceptionally calm, as if she had long been numb to accidents and death.

She has seen too many separations and deaths.

Since she was a child, her father and mother passed away one after another, and then some time ago her closest friend Land Shark died in battle, and her grandfather also passed away.

Death seemed to be a constant presence throughout her life.

Misfortune always surrounds her.

Now her father's best friend has been taking care of her... David, who is both her teacher and father, also met with an accident.

Chi Hanqing has learned to be strong and forbearing. There is no trace of sadness on her face, or rather, she has become accustomed to pain and sorrow. Her expression is calm, without a trace of anger, and she is terrifyingly calm.

Sadness is the most useless emotion. It has no value other than causing pain.

Even if you shed all your tears, it will be of no use.

Life has to go on. The best situation at hand is to cheer up and find a way to save David.

…………

"You're going alone?" Xia Yu frowned and looked at Chi Hanqing. He could understand Chi Hanqing's emotions, but he didn't support her going alone to seek revenge: "Go and die?"

"Longshahui and Paradise Group were attacked at the same time. This is obviously aimed at me and Sakaki." Xia Yu is not a fool. The enemy is obviously coming for him: "The more it is at this time, the more we can't act rashly. If we are not careful, we will fall into the enemy's trap."

When Chi Hanqing heard Xia Yu's voice, his face was calm, as if he had expected Xia Yu to say this. He looked up at Xia Yu and said, "I know."

"So I will be extra careful, but David can't wait that long... I have to go save him, and the Longsha Society also needs someone to take charge of the situation."

Listening to Chi Hanqing's words, Xia Yu felt an unusual headache. He couldn't help rubbing his head, and then looked at Chi Hanqing solemnly: "Just now, there was news from Jiang Yu that his uncle Jiang Chengen was also kidnapped. David and Jiang Chengen were kidnapped at the same time, and you were asked to go to different places on the same day to redeem them. This is obviously a trap."

"They want to divide our forces and defeat us by dividing us."

Xia Yu frowned. He had to admit that kidnapping David and Jiang Chengen at the same time was really a very clever conspiracy.

Both of them were kidnapped at the same time, and Chi Hanqing and Jiang Yu had to rescue them.

Even if Xia Yu wanted to intervene, he couldn't split it into two halves and could only help one of them.

Whether helping Chi Hanqing or Jiang Yu, it would leave a thorn in the other person's heart.

What a brilliant plan.

…………

Xia Yu took a deep breath and looked at Chi Hanqing: "Whether it is David or Jiang Chengen, we must go to rescue them. Even if we know it is a trap, we must go, but... we must be fully prepared."

"Whether we can rescue them successfully or not, we must not sacrifice ourselves."

"Contact Shen Guan-4 first. Try to delay the time." Xia Yu said this, then turned his gaze to Sylvia and said to her: "You also call Jiang Yu and tell him not to be impulsive and not to act on impulse. Use the ransom as an excuse to delay the other party first."

"Let's make the best plan within two days, and I will act with you." Xia Yu said here, turning his head to look at Eve beside him.

From the beginning, Eve said nothing, just stood by and listened silently to the conversation between the three people.

"Eve, while I'm away from the capital, I need to trouble you with the gym leader ranking competition!" Xia Yu's voice rang out, "It would be best if no one challenges me, but if someone does, just admit defeat on my behalf. If the Pokémon Association officials ask, just say that I'm at a critical moment in the experiment and will temporarily give up all competitions."

"I accept a maximum of two challenges a day. Even if I keep admitting defeat, I won't drop much in the rankings." Xia Yu's eyes flashed with determination: "There are still three weeks left before the end of the gym leader ranking competition. As long as I rush back in the last minute, I can get my rank back in three days!"

"If I really can't make it back... forget it, I don't need to be a gym leader." Xia Yu said calmly: "Besides, my Sonic Dragon is already a king-level trainer. As long as I go to the Pokémon Association to register, I will be directly promoted to a king-level trainer, and I won't even be eligible to participate in the gym leader ranking competition."

Although Xia Yu said it easily, if he really missed this opportunity, Xia Yu would inevitably feel a little regretful.

Because Xia Yu knew that his family, master, friends, and fans were silently supporting him behind the scenes, and were all looking forward to him becoming the youngest Dragon-type Gym Master in the imperial capital.

Especially his parents, hoping their children will become successful is the hope of every parent.

Although my parents always say that as long as the family is safe and healthy, that's enough, but every time I mention me in front of outsiders, my parents always look proud.

Xia Yu didn't want to disappoint his parents.

In addition to his parents, his master Long Fan also fully supports him and cares about his strength every time he meets him. The previous Dragon Hall Master of the Imperial Capital, Wu Qianshan, was his master's disciple, but he was found to be a traitor of the Dawn Society and died tragically in the Imperial Capital.

Although the master was not implicated too much by this incident, it undoubtedly brought shame to the master, and many people also used it to attack Long Fan.

The master said that he didn't care and didn't put any pressure on Xia Yu, but as a disciple, how could he not share his master's worries.

Similarly, many people including Long Yanning, Su Muzhi and others supported him.

He had too many reasons to become the youngest gym owner in the imperial capital, but life is always full of regrets. Xia Yu did not regret missing this opportunity to save Jiang Chengen and David.

Listening to Xia Yu's words, Chi Hanqing's gaze fell on Xia Yu, his eyes flashing.
